I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…

Precision! Restraint! The clarity and deliberateness of this production leaves me grasping for words. It's like you created it within a straight jacket.

I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…

Gritty, tight, driving...yeah, in a messed up world, hearing a new Andrew Russe song stands out as a beam of light in an otherwise dark time. This sounds great...

Finally, at last... I've got something finished...
Been working on this for a few weeks.
A bit of a rocker... (and an aging lecherous one at that)
I got it as close as I could and then mixed it loud... I've over-cooked it slightly - but…
This one's a bit of a ponderous beastie.
It can be whatever you want it to be. For me, it's got a lot to do with Sunday 18th June 1815.

Due to climate change we've had little rain in the last couple of years
The day after I had written this song it rained all day :-)

I was listening to this without having read the blurb (or listening to the words...) I was thinking "that's a nice summery vibe" ... given it's been cold and cloudy here all day!! Then I paid attention to the lyrics... oops! Yep, it actually works perfectly for that too...
Haha "piratical tension" - I think that it's just you, Sister Savage... but now you mention it... maybe it is? ... but I have been drinking wine, and brandy, and watching Blackbeard the Pirate with Robert Newton earlier... Arrrrr(!) Anyways... 1. e4 e5 ... open game
... I've only just connected you with up with https://alonetone.com/puddleglum that I used to listen to! Good to hear some new stuff. Followed and ready for more :)
Well I did try and get an RPM challenge done after last years fail, but I'm still lacking enthusiasm or creativity.
Hence the uninspiring title of 'The Fifth', as this was the 5th track I was working on and the only one that came close to completion…
It's good hearing some Mac music again. Hope your'e doing ok. I went through a long gap, not wanting to record any music... bought a LOAD of guitars though!!
This started life as a vey simple 'disco' bass riff over which I then brought in the chords. Its got a sort of 80s pop/prog thing going on - not surprising as I'd been listening to a lot of Nik Kershaw when I recorded it!
I was messing about and this came out. Thanks for listening
GET DOWN ON MY KNEES
I get down on my knees and I pray for a day
Where we can all go outside to run and play
Take my hand and tell what you see
can you see a future, for likes…
Oh fab fab fab... I love the "foot-stomping" vibe this has... wife not so much, I've got headphones on, she's doing something else, I was stomping! Who's on the electric solo at the end? Classy. And the harp... woo, yeah.
With a little help from Arthur & Elvis i had a bit of fun in the cellar and Regged up an old classic. Thanks for listening
My baby left me
she never said a word

Awww love it. Back in the dark old days I used to do a version of this with the chaps... (ours owed more to Slade and included That's Alright). When I saw the notification that you'd done it, I rushed for the headphones... and it's even better than I hoped it would be. GO Reg! :)
In Lockdown, I have really been inspired to return to my more classical roots, and have enjoyed playing around with the idea of epic style movie or cinematic themes/trailers. I have imaginatively named them Lockdown Orchestrations No. 1, No…

The titles didn't grab me when I saw them posted yesterday - so I didn't rush to switch to "listening mode"... but now I have... The music, YEAH! Nice one.
I wrote this one morning but gave up tryin to sing it . then I asked my buddy Steve Schostal to do vocals . His Canadian accent was perfect for this . Notice how he leads the beat ‘wow perfect.
I love Colabs
It started off as a shimmery, summery canvas in my head but morphed into something very different from the middle 8 onwards. It was originally done at 100BPM but sounded a bit 'ploddy' and pedestrian so I beefed it up
Listened to this yesterday, but forgot to comment... working at home, eh?! ... anyways, I was listening to a track on another site just now, and it gave me the same open and fresh air feeling I thought remembered from this. Yep, as I remembered, but then this has some complex emotions too... Cool track.
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Sounds like you've been thru some shit since last we met...
Precision! Restraint! The clarity and deliberateness of this production leaves me grasping for words. It's like you created it within a straight jacket.
Your voice is crystal clear.
This makes me cry...and I haven't listened to the music yet.
Love it , Andrew ... great song.
Cool lyrics....great tune!
Great tune ..... makes me think of Roger Chapman ....
Love that overdrive bass sound!
Gritty, tight, driving...yeah, in a messed up world, hearing a new Andrew Russe song stands out as a beam of light in an otherwise dark time. This sounds great...

Comments made by Andrew Russe
Back for another listen. Yep. Those are gorgeous guitars, and the groove, and the vocal... And the harmonies on the bridge... This is mighty fine.
Yep, cool sounds. Certainly moving the air in my broom-cupboard studio!
"snacks with a special flavour" hehe

Oh yeah. Like it. Enjoy the weather :)
I could favourite them all. But this one woke me up from the work I'm doing... And, it's got a "distinctive" title, of course.
Yep, followed. Looking forward to hearing more.
Oh yes... liking the tunes you make... and yes, this fits its title too.
Catchy title dragged me in... LOVE IT!
