Chopping up lamb for Moroccan deliciousness right now. Pondering your meat on meat reference. Thanks for that. ;-) Especially like this after the two minute mark. Kind of off-your-face cool.
[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…
It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee
Where my love
was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.
One of them turned said…
I heard a story about you
I didnt want it to be true
But it felt like it might
You, well it was all about you
and how the things that you do
Seem strangely undone
And life doesnt help out the weak
A lifetime tends to bring you some…
It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee
Where my love
was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.

this got me within the first 30 seconds. the vocals are truly amazing. I definitely hear some neil young.
thanks also for the nice comment on my stuff. and no, I've never heard of Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, but I checked them out on youtube and liked them. thank for the tip.
I found this while doing some clearing out. Its the only demo me and a friend Ben Price recorded when we were briefly looking to form a band in about 2005/2006. Listening back to it, strained vocals aside I kinda liked it so thought I should give…
Well I been playing the blues for so long
Kinda feel like playing jazz x 2
I dig the random instrumentation.
Play this in eight over three and a half
I been playing the blues for so long, make me feel like tryna rap x 2
I think I'll call…
Musta been December cause the air mighty cold
A family was moving in, further down the road
They were not the colour of the others in the street
All the kids were laughing at the trainers on their feet
I was only young and so I guess I laughed…
It's official, Tess and Beth love it. Aready got the melody sussed. Played it to T ess over the phone - totally up for it. Oh, I love bluesy
stuff. Thanks Alex xx

must start logging in before commenting. thems was me. Anyway.. enjoyed everything thus far but kinda glad to hear this one last a bit longer. Gives a bit more chance to get into it.. the others were ending about the time i was in the flow of them.
delivery of it all though is charming.. delicate. like it. tip top
really enjoying this stuff at the moment. So chilled. but not in the slightest bit dull or uninteresting. Exactly the kind of music i feel like at the moment.
Grew out of my frustration at having to sing, play all the instruments, and engineer my own recording...
Baby, Would You Be My Engineer?:
Baby, would you be my engineer
and keep my headphones sounding clear?
I desperately need someone…
Bluegrass banjo, southern rock drums, goofy synths, vocoded chorus, and DnB rhythms. Technically has a NSFW word in the lyrics, but probably not discernable.
Thanks for listening to my album, "Love ZZZV"! This opening track is still my favourite of the nine because it features nothing I'd call a mistake and still leaves me in wonder just as to how I wrote it. The extended, classic tracker-style soloing…
i am a brand new fan of chiptune and one of your very own creation.. as of when I saw your thread on RPM. Something about these sounds make me feel awesome!! Definitely high up in my top five RPMers so far (top actually.. but dont tell anyone else) ;)
one more for the road. and well worth it.. awesome.. again guitar had me hooked straight away. similar in style to the Hot Tuna I was listening to earlier. Really am hitting sack now.
really enjoyin this album so far. First track.. nice and short entices you in. Guitar on the second track is immense and this uns good too. off to bed now cos im SHATTERED. but will be listening to the rest soon!
Let me introduce to you
Every woman child and man
The place I did my growing up
Raised by grandma's hand
I think you'll find
That folks are kind
They're sure to ask you in
Enter the warmth
Close the door
And my story will begin…
Well I been playing the blues for so long

you tell me what you want
you tell what you need
i cant give you nothing honey
but this pretty little seed
where has the sun gone
and is it gone forever
will it come back someday
should we just give it some time
i ask you what…
This one was inspired by Wen's mom; and is therefore dedicated to all those musicians doing RPM, and all musicians who toil away at home to make their music despite what their friends & co-workers might think of their efforts.
Remastered the levels slightly on 3/4/09.
An attempt at a progressive metal-inspired piece with time signature changes.
Moral of the story: Kind of a demented play on Charlotte's Web - if you give somebody wings and they hate your guts…
What an experience.. glad i had my headphones on for this one. Alot of it would have been lost on my crappy laptop speakers. Nothing obvious here... was literally surprised every couple of seconds. class.
Comments on A Bit More Better Productions's stuff
Nice sounds this is good nice real nice
Third listen...faved. Possibly too sophisticated for the untrained pallet on the first two tries. :-)
Quite a diversion for you Alex, a very well played and interesting piece, nicely done. Love the eastern flavour, Yum yum!

In fact.. now they ALL have lyrics in the 'about' tab!!! All of 'MAKE DO & MEND' anyway.. comments welcome.. cheers chaps
Now with lyrics in the 'about' tab - good idea Tim, cheers!
Really good this. Like a modernised Velvet Underground on Loaded. me like.
by far my favorite out of what you came up with this year Chris. So personal sounding.. really endearing i think.
could have sworn i was logged in.. anyway.. that was me!
that was an unsigned in me!! Great stuff. Fits the mood here right now too. Is good how you do that. :)
Liking your style.
What an awesome intro and ensuing track! Not a single RPMer that wont be feeling this one!! Think I'll get a boat..
Loved every last drop. Right up my street this one!
