Cyborgs conquer the planet, crushing resistance and enslaving the human race. The cello represents the people who ignore the destruction and carry on as normal, like the orchestra playing on the deck of the Titanic as it went down.
Are you kidding me???!!!??? This is extremely badass music, I would try to get away with a crime listening to it. That good! The guitar has a slight ly "junky" sound that should be patented - Love it. Very cool, I love it

Thanks Tom. I'm not sure if the mix of instruments worked. I was trying to contrast the power of the invasion with the futility of resistance and panic of the human survivors, but perhaps I was being a bit ambitious. It was fun though, and if you listen carefully at the beginning you will hear my dog getting in on the act. She heard me shouting and ran in barking, thinking that there was really someone (or something) here! I had to laugh!

I really like the mix of sounds you have going on here, Steve! The highest complement I know to pay is to say that it reminds me of a mix of AC Newman's "Town Halo" and Buckethead's best album, "Population Override" (which also tells a sci-fi story across several instrumentals). That said, you obviously have your own muse and it's one I appreciate.
That beer on the table yours or mine?
I only left the room for a short time.
If you've gone and switched them I'm gonna be sad,
Cos that beer was the best one that I ever had.
Don't drink my beer, you hear?
I'm counting to 4 just to make…

Thanks Tom. Boring the listeners is my greatest fear! Yes, I suggest headphones because there is a swirling stereo effect which only works properly with headphones on, as you rightly guessed. This song is about the rise of the Cyborgs, from initial communications to a robotic type march on humanity, a la Terminator style.
Thanks DJ Ursine. I can't take all of the credit for this. I use loops mostly, and the timing takes care of itself on the app I use. An ear for what will work, and some imagination helps, but I guess I'm more of a DJ than a musician.
Cool experimental sounds you have here, Steve! I really appreciate how you never rest on your laurels by relying on a formula. Instead you push your sounds in new and exciting ways--it's quite inspirational. So what's this one about? Does h/phones suggest we should be listening to this with headphones to get the desired effect? I can def see how this would be even more impactful w/ headphones!
I haven't heard this song. It sounds great though. You always surprise me with the range and amount of material you work with. I don't know how you have experienced so much music. Are you a hundred years old?
A distress call from space is picked up, and then a race to rescue the crew ensues. I have attempted to contrast the peace of space with the urgency and determination of the rescue mission, and it's eventual success.

This song was written after I had watched a documentary about Jonestown, which featured music from their choir. They were very talented and I couldn't help wondering if any of them had survived. I'd like to think that there were a couple of 'em…
Performed with National Baritone Guitar, Martin D-28, Morris Mandolin and Hohner EchoHarp.

I was having my share of PESS (post election stress syndrome) and headed to northern MN to shake it off and wrote this one while watching a beautiful quiet snowfall happen. I recorded it finally today on my little TASCAM that we often use around…

Thanks Tom. I try to vary it a bit and not be too predictable. Next time I'm going to do a longer tune than the usual two minutes, but I don't want it to become boring. We'll see.

Thanks, you're very kind

Thanks launched! It's great to inspire action and response with my music, but don't get yourself arrested buddy! : )
Oh, and all the fancy funky swirly curly tones and beats make me want to defy authority!

Thanks Tom, happy to oblige
Amazing stuff, Steve! You have a real knack for combining catchy beats with creative soundscapes. Looking forward to hearing more!

Lovely version. Emotional and well expressed and executed. Cool!
This is a new one for me. Nice melody, played and sung very well as usual.
Stretching out those vocal chords again Tom. Very good!
Thank you Tom. I'm trying!

Psychedelic and retro sound to this. I like it. Good job, Going Up and brother!
Thanks for that!
Thanks DJ UrSine. I'm happy that you listened and liked it.
Thanks Tom. I wanted to convey urgency and confusion in the song. Glad you like it. BTW - I must listen to some Beck.
Really nice. I wish it was longer. Lovely song Tom!
Good job Johnny! Glad you're back creating sounds again.
A Beatles cover! Love it Tom. Singing is great. I think you've done it justice buddy!
So original and different. Like the melody guys. Excellent song!
Like the arrangement and mandolin sounds great. Nice one Greg!
Lovely song Colleen. Great lyrics and wonderful singing.
Thank you Colleen
