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…
I can't quite believe that I'm posting this, or that I've even recorded it. But I've played it like this sat on the sofa in the living room for many years, and I needed something to check out how to record a live "one vocal and one guitar" song…

First new one from me in a long time.
Kind of a love song, I guess.
Recorded in my new "studio" (3rd bedroom in the new house). Almost up and running now... shine and don't stop wondering!

THIS IS THE OLD YEURGH MIX - THERE IS ANOTHER ONE HIGHER UP THE LIST NOW, FULLY LOVED BY AR. THIS ONE IS LEFT HERE AS A MONUMENT TO SOMETHING OR OTHER (AND IN CASE YOU PREFER IT)
Acoustic ghost story. Recorded 2010.
Easter 2010 I decided…
Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009.
I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in.
The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…
A tale of keeping your head above the water, or not...
Recorded Jan-Feb 2011.
I wrote it many years ago, never thought I'd ever do anything with it.
I intended to record this with just an acoustic and my new EDB (electric upright bass…

Electric blues. Recorded 2007. I was learning how to use my DAW and trying to figure out how a one-man-band could get to sound like a bunch of old bluesers in a sweaty bar...

As suggested by Haylie in the Songcrafters Suggestfest.
Always been a seminal song for me (i.e. the Soft Cell version). Great to have the chance to cover it.
Thanks Haylie

And now for something completely different...
Well, friends, I think I may have over-banjo'd myself the past 3 years. It's not abandoned totally or permanently, but since the weather turned I've been feeling the need to turn to something else…

Two more of my own wee tunes, this time written to remember John McNaughton from Benvarden, Bushmills & the Toast Rack carriages of the Bushmills Tram.

This is a new song I wrote about two weeks back, and am FINALLY able to perform (I wrote the guitar part first, and it was too hard initially to sing and play. Even now, the timing is off in a few spots- that'll change as I perform it more). I…

Lyrics:
I don’t care for love and happiness
I got myself a yacht and a mansion
I don’t believe in God and religion
I got myself sixty four billion
Greed, greed, greed is what I need
Greed, greed, greed is what…
This is a piece inspired by J.D. Salinger's short story.
My friend Stasya's doing the vocal parts.

Thought I'd have a go at a soul number. FDR did some lead but the song was left all alone on my comp until today when I landed on it's lyrics while driving home. Thought I'd have a plumb at auditioning for the 3rd Reg, lol.
This is a request from Gene Eric Mann

OK, so I decided to release my covers here too since that seems to be commonplace and I have a bunch of arrangement material. Only my covers are of video game music. This piece covers a few tracks from one of my favorite SNES games, Secret of…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Awesome recording, LOVE IT!!!
Don't normally like cover songs...unless they're turned on their head. And you have done a killer job...Great.
Straight out of the Commitments sound track I say.....Great track
Very amazing.
Good song all around. All the instruments interact well and the recording is clean. You have a great soulful tone to your voice.
I have the BR1600CD, I recorded almost all my stuff on it!
Some nice dynamics, sounds like a pretty polished pop rock tune!
Some excellent stuff here, nice one. :)
Top track mate.
I dig your voice...veey soulful.... Nice acapella version....
S-w-e-e-t Piepod I love it Andrew! LG
Great storytelling Andrew. Real nice recording.
Simply beautiful
Master class in minimalism. More doodles please.
Such an intimate sound. Wonderful vocal! Holding my breath while listening.
love it
Brilliant, soulful vocal! Well done! w;-)
Really cool track mate.
Yeah! Has a nice live sound to it, you nailed that.
Rory Gallager type riff, well put together
Comments made by Andrew Russe
Yes :)
Nice version! Takes me back to staggering drunkenly around the student union bar...
Fabulous.
Oh, this one's gorgeous.
Lovely. There's quite a bit of silence at the end of the track though (I'm working in another window and wondered where the music had gone!)
Haven't heard one I don't like yet!
Like it.
Very tasty indeed.
Oh yes! That works.
Listened to them all while winding down from work... Lovely stuff, just what I needed.
Loving these tracks :)
Just spent a VERY pleasant time listening to all your tracks while working. Nice stuff :)
Yep, I much prefer this version. I think it's a pretty good one too!
Like it!
Like it.
I can't play a 4 minute solo FORWARDS and make it sound coherent, let alone backwards!! You seem to have managed it :)
Do more vocals!
Good, extremely good :)
Oh yes... a masterpiece!
Enjoyed it :)
