That one song from Passager that nobody liked! Death of a Salesman... from hell! Another day in the life of those 'Stopadvertising' folks.
I have always set a little bit
off to the side to help the family
though I currently have five of…

Depeche Mode lite
I was going to hire Meatloaf for the ending but it turns out he will NOT work for pancakes... which is what I had heard.
This is one of the prime examples of (early on) being WAY more ambitious than what my ability…
You're right it is really good. That drum track is a little overwhelming in the mix at first tho. I like the guitars, stream of conciousness lyrics, Lennon-like vocal and the Miles Davis title check.

The music alone is work of art, I like the sudden tempo changes too.
The song is bizarre and really clever.
The last verse is most impressive all round.
You don't need Meatloaf oh, and I'll have your dog!
She hangs a little garden
so everyone can fit in her yard
when it's time to take tea
fills it up when they're walking about
they really knew how to twist and shout
and they're always going back that way again
rents a flat with his sister…
This is a solid little tune, catchy as can be with several unexpected twists. Would love to be able to read along with all of the lyrics - please post 'em!
Well, it IS!
lyrics for my Italian friends:
We're gonna be there in your wake
mending the seams when they start to break
make you do what you said that you would
and other words that rhyme with good
once so close why let it go, baby…

This is sick. I love it. I always enjoy when someone knows how to tastefully employ synth instrumentation which obviously sounds fake. You don't try to pass off the violin sound as anything other than a familiar sort of lynch pin for the rest of the heavier rhythms.
I wrote this song for my adopted daughter. She was raised by a mother who saw her as a burden and went through alot of physical and sexual abuse. But this song isn't just about that. It's about her overcoming all that and becoming a strong woman.
love the newer tracks, beetle. I especially like where this one goes after about the 2:30 mark, with the tinkering percussion and competing little synth sounds. Good stuff.
I really enjoyed this collection/album, David. It has a warm, subdued, private kind of charm to it. I like how a lot of the songs feel like they're being held together by a thread.

A quickly improvised tune with some stream-of-consciousness lyrics. Written/recorded hastily in the dead of night on Tuesday 11/27 with a short overdub session on Thursday 11/29, when I should have been sleeping.
All basic tracks…
A bit of improv done yesterday with my newly refurbished fretless guitar. Finally got the midi pickup to track almost right! Part of the sounds were gotten by rubbing a teaspoon on the strings.
Well, I like it. Almost a kichey throwback to hearts of space type cascading ambient, which no one really does anymore. Has a kind of slightly on edge shrill I find interesting.

Wowza arrangement!

I must make time to listen to all of your uploads - this is another treasure.

Excellent vocal to a song full of exotic flavours.
You are such a versatile artist. I never know what to expect. I love the sudden high notes in the vocal and the whistle - cool! Merry Christmas.

Heh! Nice and strange, I like it! Love the guitar part 1:45. I think this could do with a nice big gong, or a thumping kick of some kind.
Wow, this is really beautiful... A dreamy flurry of activity.

Badass! I wouldn't mind if this one just kept ratcheting up exponentially into some kind of mad fury.
thanks
Nice jazzier take on the tune, guys! Good performances and arrangement.
Fantastic! Covers a range of feelings and is just plain fun, as well.
Great beat, and in combo with the muted scratch/warble it really comes to life, another good one.

This is great Sandy, you give the song a raw desperation that works quite well.

awesome, love your voice.
Very unique voice, silky smooth... fantastic performance here.
Neat! XTC and The Jam collide. Great performance.
This is intensely heavy, you can almost feel the weight and movement. Nice work, Altair.
Very Cohen-esque... good stuff, CS.
Cool, Reef. I've never heard anyone try to cover this.
This is horrifying... I love it.
really cool, love the sounds on this one, Ferryman. The Guitar and synths are fantastic.
