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.

This did start off as a happy Blues, then I thought there's no such beast, is there ? So a quick rewrite to darken it up a bit. Well that's me for a couple of weeks, Daughter's Wedding Saturday, then off on a 10 day Cruise on Wednesday. You all…
Another with the £16 special.......We know he isn't really i mean he's here with me now in the cellar............
HE’S GONE (lYRICS)
IT WAS A CARELESS LOVE THAT TOOK HIM AWAY
OF COURSE THERE WAS NEVER GONNA BE THE RIGHT KINDA DAY
TO SAY GOODBYE…
Another collab with Jip, with me adding the vibes, pad of the orient, flute and vocals.
From the original da da da da das before I came up with any lyrics, I wasn't happy with any of the melodies. This is the result of me getting bored with…
in bed - cant sleep
go downstairs to pour a drink
the acs out, its hot as shit
but you learn to get used to it
since you left, its been hard
leavin early from parties and bars
you wont pick up, you're over it
its been a while, im used to it…
each time I’d look at you
I was looking for a breakthrough
some emptied sigh, some reasons why
everything I’d left behind
reckless provisions for some blooming vine
followed me, in the back of my mind
forgive me, mother for the lamb…
in bed - cant sleep

This is a song I have just recently finished recorded over the summer in my basement using all live recordings of real instruments (intro vocals were recorded literally on a cliffside), and this is the first of more to come. It's a song about…
Let's buy decency,
And we'll stitch into the arms of our sweaters,
Cause I'm just a fool,
With an acoustic guitar, no shimmer.
I used to read books,
If they held my attention I still might.
The callous on my thumbs,
Say I stay up and…
Texas hold em poker, and going for it all. Open mic acoustic with some alt tuning. Percussion by Norm.
The kokiriko? Norms playing in there actually sounds like shuffling cards- particularly loving the glockenspiel addition he did…
WOOO - I've been listening to all of your stuff while doing some much needed guitar maintenance. Haven't been near enough the PC to fave and comment appropriately on individual songs... but WOW! I didn't hear a single track I didn't like, and there is some utterly SUPERB stuff in your track list.
Hoping there'll be some more soon.
You never would have caught me playing this genre a few years ago. WHat the hell happened ??
All the instruments were recorded with an open mic at my house. Which, as you know is always a chaotic place to record :) If you listen hard enough…
Oh,
Iron jaws, wrapped around my legs,
Try to gnaw, but why would I want to.
Why would I want to.
Oh,
Fresh cut gauze, soaking lips,
Trying not to fall, but why would I want to.
Why would I want to.
Silent pines, know my name

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 ....

Cool song - fabulous vocals.
Nice slide.
This sounds mighty fine. Loving the piano.
Nice one. Have a good day on Saturday, and a relaxing time on the cruise... See you on the flip side :)
You're certainly wringing yer £16 worth out of that thing. Excellent stuff.
This is the business. Love the slide, love the vocal, what's not to like? :)

Another fantastic one from you. Love the contrast between the verses and choruses. The guitar riff, everything.
Wow - huge sound. And then it gets even bigger.
I like this one a lot.

Very tasty. Mrs R is a fan as well now.
