A fantastic, brilliant, colorful, delicious, epic composition! This is one of those one-in-a-million exceptional bit of songwriting. I'm impressed. A lot of mojo happening here. Take a bow, cause I'm standing and applauding this one -- FABULOUS! 5 STARS!

beautifully composed ... love the bass and piano at the start ... great when it kicks in ...like the nuances like the strings and electric guitar bits ... a well produced and mixed piece that takes you on a few dynamic journeys ...the ending rocks ... strong vocals.

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 song has been sat on the marvellous mechanical mouse organ in the broom-cupboard for well over a year.
A few weeks ago I got a bit of a scare - the mouse organ nearly broke down (in the middle of sorting out Delta Dawn). While I was fixing…

So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…

YEARLONG VALENTINE – SKEEN 130214
Now the day’s away, and the wine is gone,
And you bury your head under mine,
I won’t make a peak,
Save infrequent yawns
And the sigh that says everything’s fine,
Cos I’m sure without need of assurance…
Had a little idea (not a drink) about an hour ago and it went straight to my i-phone! This is the first guitar / vox recording after 1 quick strum to get chords and key and stuff (oh, so technical I am) and it's 3rd fret capo (obviously) with…
First of all guys, sorry haven't been about for weeks. Been down with Flu & this & that, got to say this song didn't do the throat much good. So many takes, as I coughed up my lungs half way through !!!!! Anyway, an old rant I wrote 6…

Flowers Under The Snow - Written By Greg Connor
These G late winter…
Gary and I did something good.
ONE AND ONLY
How many times have you been captured by a camera
With no one really knowing who you are
Caught in the sight lines in the background
In the corner of their eyes
Never looking closely at the…
Straight cover, from a backing track, just because I had the urge and I don't think the neighbours would appreciate me thrashing the guitar so late!
The backing track pretty much sums up where my head was at when I recorded it :)
This is a fairly simple guitar part I came up with a couple days ago and my friend talked me into recording it. It needs words- perhaps that will come later.

Melodic idea by Tiggy Acworth 23rd November 2012.
Made reality and added to quite superbly by David Bevan in February 2013. A perfect example of a living, breathing SKEEN. Music to live by?
Most definitely a click free recording…
A little tune to help me get through the winter ... used my 63 Fender Jazzmaster for the guitar tracks. This guitar has been with me through thick and thin and just gets better with age.

Greg let me have another go at one of his songs and I the wrote the words and music for a bridge
so that way he has to pay me some royalties when he sells a million !!! lol thanks Greg for your inspiration and great music!!
lots of different things I tried in this one, mostly in structure and vox, as well as harmony and texture. I guess it is a progressive type song with some gloom.
the intro is a short bass thing with effects called nectar, its like 25 sec.s…
#RPM Challenge 2013#
Wake up in the morning, I’m still in my cloths
I got one eye open but the other wont go
Barely can remember the night before
Except for how you threw me out the door
Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey
I think I’m in trouble again…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Damn! That is one fine piece of work! Love all the different layers that are going on
Nice one - great sounds here.
Wow . . . this one raised the standard. Nice job Andrew.
Wow, truly EPIC! amazing vocals! I like the summary of what inspired it too.
Progtastic!!!

EPIC!!!!!!!!!! Haaa!!!! Great Work all the way around!!!!
Ya nailed it. Awesome mix.

Wow... I see why it took 5 months. A wonderous construction indeed. As I'm no longer an Alonetoner... I'm Mac McIntyre
another beauty from the house of Russe ......
Awesome classic rock, outstanding tune!
I missed this one. Really Nice Ballad.
Good ole Rock N Roll...still alive and kicking!!
Nice -- really, really nice.
A great, Classic Rock-style song -- vocals, guitar, lyrics, vocals, everything! Rock on!
I still like it as it is!!
Wonderful piece. Enjoy the variety in your material.
So sweet! Love the lyrics. Such a gorgeous vocal job. Very gentle yet so powerful.
If you were going for that AC/DC sound, you nailed it. You sure can cook up some fine recordings! Great job -- Rock on!

Just listened to the whole thing... Masterpiece (the missus likes it too)
Nice to hear a new one from you. Cool picking on that tuning - and a gorgeous guitar sound.
Cool version
Love it.
Like it. And the key of 3rd fret - always a goodie.
Oh yeah. Nice one. Love how this one thumps along, excellent groove.
Gorgeous intro - gorgeous... and... a wonderful song to follow. Wonderful, wonderful. PLEEZE someone fix the fave button
Aww, fabulous. Where's the fave button when it's not working? (I clicked it anyway...)
Woof - some cool playing right here.
Oh yeah. Nice one guys.
I was thinking that (intense backing track) - I had to listen twice to "block" that out and listen to you! Ace vox.
Tasty. It works like this - it's a good listen as it is - but I'd like to hear what vocals you come up with.
Well, my right foot moved a fair bit... does that count as doing the Tiggy jig? Nice one.
Woo yeah, like it.
I'd fave it, but the button doesn't seem to work for me anymore...
Love this.
This hits the spot. I prefer brandy meself (and vodka martini) but this makes me wonder. Love the choruses.
Wow! Epic stuff.
Oh yeah, this is a tasty one alright.
Haunting. Love the woodwind (and horns?) that come to the fore later.
