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…
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…

Hey Alex, nice to hear something "new" and something that you did with Ben! I knew you were working on stuff together at one point so this is a real treat! Any more?

Tell me can you teach me bout your finely written poetry
Dont care about the content I just want to make em notice me
Such a fine hand they'd say wooo, study it closely
Been practicing all day I think I'm ready least I aughta be.
Caligraphy…
No - I definitely favourited this months ago. Excellent track! Need to hear new stuff from you, Alex! Don't make me wait until February, that would just be rude.

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…
Can i get a little whisky in this water said John
The day the world stopped being fair
I didnt know what to say so I said yeah.
I poured a double whisky and I placed it in his hand
And said friend, only true friends understand
He said friend…
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…
Hey Alex...this track made me turn green with envy. Your voice is f***ing awesome. The trade-off of the gtr and the keys is perfect, well balanced. Laid back back-beat groove. Yeah, just checked the mirror, I am pure green.
Cheers,
Gary

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…
glad you like it buddy.. was one of my favourites off the album as a song but a couple o things went astray during recording and pissed on it a bit. If I wasnt lazy I'd re-record it but yeah.. BANJO!!!
great playing, great track and love the way you recorded. Fancy doing something similar for next year maybe. its got the nice cozy feeling of the old crusty blues and folk cuts. awesome
Another one without lyrics. The title was my workingtitle. And I just thought it was a funny title (I think Rage Against the Machine is kind of silly) I quite like some of the sounds on this one (it's a Poly 800 through an Electro Harmonix Big…
Here the idea was that I was going to write from the viewpoint of someone who is paralyzed from the neck down and can through technology only watch other peoples life but not participate. It turned out a bit more general and ambiguous than that.

1.Afsluitdijk
...is a Dutch word and it's the name of the dam/road going from the province Friesland to North-Holland (and Amsterdam) The lyrics are about a 15-year old boy who feels so trapped in the boring Frisian town he's living in that he…
what a great track to kick off with. Love everything about it.. not sure I've heard your stuff before. So catchy, makes you want to listen to more. Which is what I'm gonna do now. :)
A chance gtr line turns into a big production. This is a song I wrote for myself, meaning it's probably too long, it probably has too many parts and it probably has too much going on in it. YET, I don't care. I wrote it for me. Oh, and I am very…
A song I've had stored in my head for quite awhile, though never committed to tape (erm... binary code) - probably because I thought it was a bit simple and even trite. Having to come up with an album's worth of material in a month cured me of…
Lyrics:
Pass me a handle of that old time tennessee
It's been a while since I've seen the devil
It's a common mistake to think that I'm a sweet and gentle soul
but give me a chance to change your mind
Cause you have never seen me like…
red cowboy and hot burrito were recordings done for a friend of mine who wanted to check out his new (old) drum machine. Both drum parts are constructed from prerecorded beats (from presets or previous owner, I don't know) and have 4-5 bass tracks…
this couldnt be more kick ass if it actually jumped out from the laptop and booted me. Its like the theme to the most deranged cop show ever. And it kinda makes me feel like doing something bad. I'm off to the park to kick pigeons.

Alex! Great tune, like the guitars too!
Powerful!
Alex, I like this but you need to bring your voice forward in the mix some. I want to be able to hear your words. J MT
nice!
Good to hear you're still at it!
Hey Alex, nice to hear something "new" and something that you did with Ben! I knew you were working on stuff together at one point so this is a real treat! Any more?
It's really more than a demo Alex, very nice indeed.
No - I definitely favourited this months ago. Excellent track! Need to hear new stuff from you, Alex! Don't make me wait until February, that would just be rude.
Love that verse melody - wonderful!
Another solid track. Good stuff Alex.
Ok, I just got a little greener. I love big soaring songs like this. So open, so wide. Great song Alex, great song.
Another great song...it sounds like Blind Faith wants to be you. I love the tone of this song. The gtr riffs are pure ear candy. Very tasty.
