Hello,
in our Linux Audio Proof Of Concept project we try to find out, what can
really be achieved with free software only in the field of music making.
We use only some must-haves of affordable hardware (mixers, mics) to
have a situation similar to the typical Mac/Win home recorder, that
emulates outboard-equipment with VST etc.
Our Computers run 64Studio, JAD1.0 (without wineasio) and UbuntuStudio.
The main tool is Ardour2 whithout VST. All apps are GNU, all samples are
recorded by us and we had only one session with a Line6 pod in witch we
recorded about 20 seconds of the material we present hereby:

Both are in a demo-status, the first (ashita) needs a final mix and
mastering, the second will get a bass line and some more extras also and
will be re-recorded in a open demo-session with a band at the
Brandenburger Linux Infotage in Potsdam/Germ on November the first this
year.
We also released some raw samples of drumkits and guitars:

please consult the README for a description and for detailed
licensing-infos.
Any comments, hints and derivatives are highly welcome!
It's dark and emotional. I would really enjoy hearing this live as the
wall you build up is solid. A big grunty stack would be like leaning
into a high wind ;-) The sound is similar to my old band in it's bass
richness. We were just bass, drums and fx though.
A couple of small timing issues on track one which will be hard to mask
but you may be able to clean them up with the mastering process.
Otherwise I assume you want a bit of syncopation to give the ambience an
uneasy feeling?
You got the right sound for your voice too. Really fits the mood.
Cheers.
