I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…
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…

Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978!
I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…

I found this one while I was digging through the shoe-box for the 1994 songs. Apparently I wrote it on 10th November 1995.
Foolishly, I thought it would only take a week or so to record... I was originally expecting…

And here's another song from 1994, with a sparkling new "Andrew Russe Band" arrangement fresh from the broom-cupboard.
Like most of my songs, it was written with an acoustic guitar, a pen, and an A4 pad. The ones…

This is great! What starts out as a super solid guitar riff turns out to be the start of an inventive arrangement and tasty guitar playing. Your voice is interesting too, and made better by the fact that you're clearly feeling it!

Started out by recording a single tone on the guitar and sampled other recordings on the loop. If you listen carefully you can hear the tone repeat itself for 420 times
I'm tempted (to try) to count them... I'm half imagining you KNOW it's 419 or 421 and you're waiting to see if someone does count them!! (And now you're wishing that is what you did!! LOL)

Somewhat inspired by king gizzard and the lizard wizard. I may have taken it too far experimenting with the vocal effects, but still had fun recording this
Not bad, 10 to 15 years to to get this one done Ha Ha. This was wrote tongue in
cheek. The story behind it is, a group of us used to meet up, taking turns whose house we used, have a chat, a bit of food, a few drinks ( ok then, more than…
Huge rain thunder and lightning storm swept thru, and right behind
a bunch of frogs serenaded us ........ Bull frogs. ...are allright
wish I had recorded their song it would fit in here

Short violin phrases played then manipulated in process in conjunction with a filtered noise floor, variable oscillator and a voice sample, all mixed live in my Pure Data patch, this one inspired by tape looping. Created for Phase 2 of Sound…
I never know what to say on these... except "interesting listen"... And this one was... I've also discovered they make a good soundtrack to working at home... not what I was expecting at all!
We got motivated to write something a bit light hearted about our Covid-19 Times.... I hope you'll laugh and sing along with Roger , Colleen, Greg and Steve on this one... any maybe raise a glass of your personal moonshine!!!

This ones for a collaboration on Songcrafters with Kari from Finland. I heard his composition and an idea jumped into my head. So here it is. Thanks for listening

I left my home in paradise when warning signs begun
With a member of my aging family
I left behind the trees so tall they almost blocked the Sun
And a lake so big it looked just like the sea
The wind blows cold through paradise in winter…
Oh yeah. What a song. Paints all sorts of images/stories in my head. But yeah, I end up yearning for the Paradise I recall myself... Faved, accidentally unfaved, and FAVED again! (Got a bit clicky there lol)
Just a run through in the cellar that turned out pretty cool til the end. I lost my way on the mandolin. The bass track was laid down later. Bless him for trying keep up with the trash I played at the end.
I'm not really sure what the lyrics mean, but I was happy that it would somewhat fit a long the other noises.
This track is the result of an experiment recording different drum sets on top of each other.
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
I love your music. You never disappoint. Always makes me happy to hear your music. Awesome.
'ello Stranger, that's a real piece of class, A + + + from me.
Great song, vocals, and production!
Very nice work, I love the quality in your voice.
Welcome back sir! Really nice song, instrumentation, and super sound quality even through the ol’ ear buds!! 👍👍🎶🎶👍
Another beauty from house of Russe well worth the wait
Great piece.
You had me at, "If I back off and shut my mouth..." Know exactly where you are. So afraid the answer is, "No."
Sounds like a 50s Buddy Holly era song. Very sweet sentiment. And, yes, I can dance to it.
Great characterization. Great kick drum sound.
WoW! Rock me, dude! Love the imagery.
Genius lyrics !
Love this !
Oosh.
*double take*
Seems your peers and colleagues were very mistaken. Great job. acoustic57
Wowza! Kudos to the nice work from the man behind the curtain :) acoustic57
Hooooly Moses yes please

Wow. Cool sounds.
Oh yeah. Dig this one. I have been drinking, though!
I find your stuff strangely compelling.
Love the feel of this one. Kinda trippy. It's got a Mamas and Papas vibe to it.
Oh yeah! That makes it mighty. Shame I can't fave it again!!
This jumps along nicely. Digging that slide.
Sounds like you have got the blues back :)
Hey! I missed this! Cool track.

Nice one. Loved the tinkly climax.
Awwww...yes... This put a great big smile on my face.
WOWWWW.... this is a fabulous song. "Shivers down the neck" fabulous. What a set of lyrics... did I say wow? Yep, WOW.
Oh yeah. What a song. Paints all sorts of images/stories in my head. But yeah, I end up yearning for the Paradise I recall myself... Faved, accidentally unfaved, and FAVED again! (Got a bit clicky there lol)
And this one is even weirder!! Cool. OK... I'm gonna follow you and check out some more of your stuff :)
Not sure what to make of this ... but I love it!
Wow... I've got a recording somewhere of Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull getting lost on a mandolin - he swears a lot more! ... this track's very cool.
It feels French to me... In a "Cote de Boeuf, vin rouge, frites, fromagerie, lescargot, ou est le bidet" kinda way
I wanted more when it stopped.
Big smile on my face - don't know why, exactly... but yes, the lyrics do fit the other noises.
