The samples are from a BBC documentary about dogs, specifically a bit where they're talking about how dogs can recognise human emotions, so it's probably the same neuroscientist dude.

This album has been all over the place so far -- I like the genre channel-surfing approach you take here. Is this named after the neuroscientist, by chance? I googled the name on the whim, and that's the only thing that came up.

This was made with the help of Joe Bain, who wrote the lyrics, sang it, and played some keyboards.

The only track on the album with vocals. Also the first song I wrote for the album. Inspired by Iron and Wine.

I tried so hard to write vocals for this. I even had some recorded but couldn't bear to leave them on. Anyone else wants to give it a go, let me know :)

Was learning a Chaimaria song and getting better at palm muting. This is the result.

Thanks, Black Pepper, Iron & Wine's definitely my biggest influence for this kind of thing :)

Very nice - great lyrics. Has a good 'Iron & Wine/Bonnie 'Prince Billy' feel to it.

I love the singing style, and really nice fingerstyle too. Beautiful in fact.

This is your only singing on the album, no? It sounds good! You could sing more if you wanted! (Sorry if you prefer instrumentals; I am biased towards wordy songs...)
