It's a great song, Alex. And gets better with repeated listenings. It's in there with some other songs i am particularly listening to on my iPod and (rather than the usual - "damn i'm supposed to be doing something for this") I am blown away by how straightforwardly great it is. You might think there's a 'cheese' factor but it's well written, direct and clear. Bravo.
The B side to Dad's father's day present. This is an instrumental celebration of his 45 years in the printing industry, and an acknowledgement that while other kids got bedtime stories, I got the history of lithography..
Fathers often find ways of giving a part of themselves to their sons, and they do so in ways that can be baffling to the sons. Perhaps your father was doing that.
My dad was an engineer and a private pilot. He never told me a bedtime story, but he took my brother and me flying as often as he could. It was his way of showing his love.
Nice song, too.

Fantastically touching tribute - personal, tender, professional...
Less interestingly, this is probably my favourite of your songs (okay, apart from Calligraphy!!).

My take on Gumbo's Keep Your Eye On The Spot, one of many excellent tracks from his RPM2011 album 'Cat's Moustache'. It's something of a departure from the original, though I was trying to retain an element of the gospel so hopefully its soul…
RPM 2011 number 2. Inspired by an ex-friend of mine who had the most dazzling rose tinted glasses. Always used to envy the simplicity of his view and how nothing could ever get to him (everything gets to me).. since i knew him I know a lot of…
This song is sort of about making a clean break, killing off the lead character in your story and burying him along with all his sins before the inevitable happens, and the bad guy gets his. Initially came from a jam with my mate Ben Price who…
This is a song about finding momentary escape from the pain of loss.. and having it interrupted by the realisation that it's the anniversary of the day it all started;
Some days I get up
and I go to the park
and I sit in the dark
and I think…

L.A.M. Stands for Loud!Awesome!Music! In which,
I love all "Electronic Music", soo many different styles:) The l.a.m. are my initials so it was pretty easy finding a name for myself. "Reactor"
just sounded appropriate for the song. I have to…
This should be the final tune from Nitro's "Wanna Dance" album project. Ruthie's "theme song". I added the slide guitar at the end.

I'm learning to 'listen' to the 'flow' of life all around me and not get so caught up in little things that don't really matter.
Learning to enjoy! Life is good...
The river runs
and i look into it
i see myself
in a million faces there…
like the sentiment of this a lot. The hook is subtle but really grabs hold. vocal reminds me of tim buckley for some reason. great stuff anthony.
ps. if u fully figure out how to let go of things that dont matter.. tell me your secret! The song blocked it temporarily.. but WHY WONT PEOPLE INDICATE!! :)
as well as enjoying the interpretation.. I LOVE the 'about' column!! haha. Me ol' ma does a similar thing when she sets the meals down 'meats overdone, potatoes could have been on a bit longer and the sauce is too thick. Enjoy!'
Growing up is hard.
For everyone.
I once had a Facebook Friend named Shannon Elizabeth Hardwick. A poet, from Midland, Texas, doing advanced studies at Sarah Lawrence. She was so good she could write a hundred pages about how she couldn…
This is my 12 hour song (written, recorded, mixed, mastered) ... I pined away all day at it while a storm kept me company.
instrumentation:
a man lost his house and sold me his fretless bass for next to nothing. a family friend gave me…
dont know how you create a feel like that.. is literally a complete mystery to me how you manage it. Sounds so smooth. think ill have to take this one on hols. :)
I wrote this song after my brother passed away a couple years ago. His girlfriend of 4 years asked me to write the music to a poem she wrote. This is what it turned out to be.
Lyrics by Annie Buller.
ah. its you again. i keep having to return to the laptop to see who it is. and it keeps being you! again.. LOVELY voice. The melody really draws the emotion of the lyrics. Great.
This is what happens when three friends get together on pasta making day.
Special thanks: Annie, for your voice; Dana, for your voice and your musical knowledge (she knew exactly what chords we needed).
Dana is a fellow alonetoner, you should…
more tabla/club music. this one needs some melodic work, perhaps some more instrument layering, more chord progressions... anyhow, should be enjoyable enough for now.
certainly was enjoyable enough.. didnt shake my ass.. cos my belly goes with it.. but i felt it all the same. i find yo shit pleases on a level where most disappoints. like a bit of electronic stuff now and again and urs always seems to do the job. ta for that mucka.
exceptionally cool. been lookin for some music like this.. was aimlessly scouring amazon yesterday trying to find the likes. and here it was all along. great feel to it..
I love it David! It takes it back more to how it was written.. only with piano instead of strummed acoustic. My missus will like it too as she wasnt happy with where i took it in the end. The anguished vocal really ups the emotion, as does the stripped down arrangement. Definitely a job well done. Thanks for doing it boss :)
I cant believe how this one crept in! I was walking home and pow.. suddenly I'm hummin it. Was a slow burner for me and enjoyed other tracks on the album much more on first listen but yeah.. its class. And it wont leave me head!
[Thanks to Helen and Colin for coming to my aid with the warblings! :) ]
When You Least Expect It
And you're out to dry
And its all too hectic
Thats when it comes x 2
And it feels electric
And you feel alive
Cos when you least expect…
