Like Rob and Laura, I can't believe that this album is the product of a month's work, fantastic stuff. And this is the standout song for me. And really nice cover too, maybe I'll stop praising you now! :-)
somewhere around 3 minutes you should here the sound of people chopping down a tree in the Peruvian Amazon turn into the beat of the song. This song was somewhat influenced by Kim Hiorthøy.
Great drum programming, great feel to the electronica sounds, and then through all that an organic whistling which is at once out of tune and possibly the most beautiful melody ever! Fantastic track.
02 – Falling Down Again. Written 17th/18th Feb. Recorded 17th/18th/19th Feb.
A slightly schizophrenic pop song, with a vocal section that also betrays me wanting to be a Beach Boy. Worryingly there is actually a red sticky trickle that seeps…
01 – My Prayer. Written and recorded 16th Feb.
Paying homage to ‘Our Prayer’, the opening of SMiLE – the Beach Boy’s album that never was. An extended version of this song appears on ‘28 seconds later’, an album on which each song is exactly…
I really enjoy your entire album. Has the nice feeling of a great band from the seventies (I mean that in the best possible way, and I assume it's also what you're going for) that I'm discovering for the first time.
another one i always play on the guitar, inspired by Nick Drake's stuff; half way through this song goes into unknown guitar improvisational territory, where i just played over my own stuff after looping it
that is not a sample you hear in the background, it is the dryer going. leave it in? okay, sure i'll leave it in. it's these artistic decisions we're all forced to make.
I literally pulled this out of my ass in a few minutes. The lyrics just poured out of me once i decided to sing about myself. Very autobiographical, also inspired by polka music. i love polka music!
I can hear the eastern European influence (of course), but it also has a kind of melancholy, French feel to me. Very nice - I love the contrast between the title and the lyrics!
this is about a couple who are at odds with each other because of their goals, could also be viewed as a guy who wants his partner to commit suicide with him?
i usually play this on guitar, but for the RPM Challenge, i wanted to do it electronically…

Seriously, great work all around. Can't believe that's the work of one month.

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

great story.
Yes, it's a Beach Boys jam, but it's a damn good one. You have a hit here, a beautiful hit.
Flawless opening track.
Brilliant! Like being kissed behind the ears!

I'm usually not a fan of long songs, but this is probably my favorite on your album. Melodic, interesting and varied - a nice surprise!
Nice piece - beautiful guitar.

Great lyrics - reminds me Robyn Hitchcock (no higher praise)!
