'After the Apocalypse' - Original Music - A Throwback Tune, from Highschool

This is a very old tune
of mine from high school, an instrumental thing, no drums (at the time, all drums were digital as I didn't know a drummer, nor could I have recorded them hehe). But, I still like the idea. The basic progression is pretty simple, and was just my guitar plugged directly into a laptop (no interface even, haha, just an 1/8th inch plug) with Garageband distortion on it. However, my favorite part is the background stuff, particularly the little swells of notes; these were done with a little tappy guitar riff, which I recorded, then layered with reverb and delay, and bounced it back and forth with panning. The actual playing wasn't perfect, my skill at tapping wasn't developed enough to do that, haha, but the effect and general idea I still think are pretty cool.
Listen to After the Apocalypse here...

I did find some CDs from the 90s I created using Cubase and other kit. I’ve nothing to play them with now!!
Haha I know, I have some CDs I burned with REALLY old tunes, and I don't have a CD player anymore! Only the songs from after that, when I was on a computer are still easily accessible. I have been thinking about picking up a cheap one to check out what I've got on them.
Ditto, will be great to digitise my old stuff and remix it.
