Very good... all you have to do is couple 3/4 time with a catchy melody on bells, and it will be an instant hit... I don't know why that is. :-) Very nicely done. If you decide to rework this, I would choose a different synth voice for the chorus, it was a bit frenetic. Maybe stick with orchestral samples, a flute maybe? Very enjoyable piece.
I like a bit of Mr Young and often do a few of his songs at open mike nights etc. this is one recorded as it happened onto a hand held recorder. bit rough round the edges, but so is Neil.
Well the votes are in and nobody, who has commented, seems to think I have offended against Satie with this. That's kind of cool because this really is one of my favourite pieces of music and one that I hope, one day, to be able to play myself…
Kublai Khan attacked on Fukuoka Prefecture in 1281, mobilizing 140,000 soldiers and 4,000 ships. The Japanese defenders, numbering around 40,000, were no match for the Mongols and the invasion force made it as far as Dazaifu, 15 kilometers south…

Memories of walking a coonhound in the small hours around the empty structures of Baltimore's Artscape festival before dawn- silent ferris wheel standing behind the rows of booths, vacant carnival installations on the Charles St Bridge. In this…
Now ye sons of the kraaken, let's get to some honest pillaging, shall we? Aaaarh!

No hearts more black than ours they say

I've been working on this one little by little; now I'm at a point where I do not feel like revisiting the feeling. Moves from 3/4 to 4/4, or so I think.. kind of like a 7/4 time sig but not really. typical glu instrumentation, etc.
Everyone…
This is a real old tune. I remember about 81 or so. My brother Asa wrote it.
I felt like recording something, so this is it.
A rude kinda fun song with that cowboy stylin' :)

It didn't take me long
to find out you were wrong

Similar in feel to the other Fragile Moment track. Mostly acoustic guitars recorded sitting in my shop on the H4N and then finished up in Cubase just this morning. September 9 09. Maybe a nice one for bedtime
