SoundClouder of the Day | Jack Morefield

Jack Morefield is a guitarist from Boston. He’s been playing music all his life but it wasn’t until March 2012 when his wife gifted him an iPad that he got into music apps like Garageband to start more seriously experimenting with loops and grid editing. He now relies on Logic to create longer pieces with his guitar work. “Now my little guitar riffs almost became songs, and I have not gotten a good night’s sleep since,” he writes.

“Embers” is a beautiful guitar soundscape inspired by the sight of burning embers of a campfire. 

Music is important to Jack for many reasons. He writes, “…the main one is that now, because of technology, I am able to make these compositions I have been hearing my whole life all on my own, which I never dreamed possible. I cannot believe that we can do on our computers and hand held devices more than any money could buy in a studio even 15 years ago so, I am slowly turning from a musician who had to prattle on – guitar wise- to a composer of soundscapes….to me that is very fulfilling.”
