Just enjoyed rolling through your 5 "Latest Music" tracks. You have a very nice sound. Remind me of a guy I used to play coffee house gigs with, Rick Walker. Nice work mate. :)
And thanks so much for all of the kind comments on my tracks. Really encouraging to hear fellow musicians say such positive things.

A few months back we had a "Beatlesfest" on songcrafters.org.
I contributed this and Yesterday.
This one's a bit of a departure for me. Not the song itself - it's been one of my favourites ever since I was tiny (I preferred Robin Gibb's…

Big applause Andrew, great lyrics, almost therapeutical.
The music is giving the right accent on the lyrics, totally fitting!
(And I am relieved you came over the shock and relaxed when you heard my music! :-) I had a big smile seeing your comment!

OH my, I was attracted by the title of the song, thinking to find something scary, but how I am mistaken, because this is a Beauty in all ways, although sad story, but even the lyrics have a wave in it, that is so beautiful, not to talk about the great musical arrangement and the way you sing it! Wonderful!!!

I’ve been dying for your smile all day
I’m trying to find the reason I’ve been moving so slow
I guess I’m just tired of blaming the snow
So I…
Just been listening to Mott The Hoople - made me think of this, so back for another listen. Every bit as good as I remembered...
And guess what??
My favourite button worked!! :-)
The product of yesterdays experiments with Metasynth.
I took a few seconds of a Debussy piano piece and imported them into Metasynths spectrum synth where I turned them into a groove which I then filtered in the Filter room.
I imported this…
Halfway through it did feel like it was the intro to something (cue dry ice, big light show, power chord, let's rock... mebbe!)(I think it's the hi-hat that does this to me, it reminds me of a drummer itching to get going)
But, for me, it does actually bring itself to a nice conclusion. Didn't really feel like "petering out" at this end.
Next in the little pile of songs from the shoe-box. This one has the date 27th January 1994 written on it, but it's describing an episode from many years earlier when I was, I'm guessing, something like 12 or 13 years old.

During the course of a song, I seem to wander the entire range of emotions - from intensely "bored" (the "I wonder what the next chord is?" face) to an "utterly bluddy crazy-man coming to get you" look...
Was I really that scary when I was doing gigs?!?!?
Today I decided I would play with the lovely (and free) [Pocket Blakus](http://blakus.com/pocketblakus-192) solo cello.
At first I tried arpeggiating some chords but this didn't work so well with this cello which has a long, heavy, sound that…
A demo track for a new Reaktor instrument I'm building codename: Mimetron.

Woof - dat boy is rockin.
At first I thought it was you on the guitar (I was working in another window, recognised the vocal and thought - "hello, there's a man who's been down to the crossroads over the last week or so!!" lol)
The momentary disappointment was more than made up for by the track itself :-)

New song By Andy & Ron
Andy: Lyrics
Ron: music and lyrics, all guitars, bass and vocals.
About an aging rocker who thinks he can still impress the ladies!!!
Lyrics
Verse 1
I knew I was a rocker in my groovy leather pants
I looked at all…
Love it.
I used to have some groovy leather pants - they used to stand up on their own the day after a gig!
Mrs R disposed of them when we got married (mainly cos I couldn't get into them... "why hold on to them?"... "well you never know, I might slim down again"... "not that much you won't" lol)
My attempt at writing a bluegrass tune and an opportunity to try my hand at some flat pickin'
... loosely based on a friends experiences growing up in a small town in the prairies ... where everything is flat ... you know, a place where you can…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Love this one. This is the second time I've listened to it. It's a great song!

You should be on the London stage!
really like this song...love the first verse especially...and I like how you string out "I" in the beginning of the chorus...I say you made a fine song in one day...good to meet You... Michael
This bare-bones version really showcases how great this melody is. Well done!
Big applause Andrew, great lyrics, almost therapeutical. The music is giving the right accent on the lyrics, totally fitting! (And I am relieved you came over the shock and relaxed when you heard my music! :-) I had a big smile seeing your comment! Roeleke
And a beautiful thing
This is a thing of beauty.....a thing of beauty I say

Wow, very good cover of this great song!

Comments made by Andrew Russe
Aw, I'm just in the right mood for this stuff. Love it.
Ooh yeah, nice opener.
Just listened to the whole Something Into Nothing album. Superb stuff.
A fine fine RPM. Loved it all. Nice one.
I forgot to comment on this yesterday. Yeah, like it - hope you didn't upstage the magic with the music!
Nice slide.
Classy version
Wonderful album Mr Fox.
Well, I moved a little bit (tied to desk, working in another window)... Loving the album so far...
Woo - what an opener.
Just been listening to Mott The Hoople - made me think of this, so back for another listen. Every bit as good as I remembered... And guess what?? My favourite button worked!! :-)
Oh yeah, nice one. Cute ending :-) (and another "missing" fave here)

Oh yeah, gorgeous cello sound.
Don't think I'll ever understand this way of making music - but it do make some nice sounds. Cool track.
Sounds like you've possibly got some Groovy Leather Pants like ole Ron has... Rocking.
