This song was made with only two short bird samples.
1) A wild screaming pija and 2)parrot. I made it last night after taking an antihistamine for all the chigger bites. paz.

oh June Bug! forgot about this one, Kirk. You're digging back 4-5 years! That flanger sound is a didgeridoo btw, pitch. The lead 'synth' part is a really short (looped) sample of a mandolin, filtered, and chromatically mapped out for playing. I forget all the other sounds. Thanks for listening to the old classics! :-)
lyrics:
i got a hot date
and you know i don't wanna be late
i need a ride
to the bowling alley
get ready cuz here i come
put my new skirt on
chewing peppermint gum
did my eyebrows fresh
white musk on my neck
part my hair to the right
cuz its…
Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…
Lyrics:
I don't know what you want
when you treat me that way
I can't help being turned on
Is that what you want
Just to see what I would do
To see if I'm in love with you
I'm trying so hard
to sit here and ignore
the way that you…
This reminds me of an old-school Beck track. If you don't like Beck please don't take offense, it's a compliment! Some of my favorite Beck stuff was from the Mellow Gold era.

Still need a ride to the bowling alley? Can you make an extended version of this track so I can keep listening to it without having to go back to the computer to press play again? :)
nice ambient music. I'm fascinated by the randomness... iare these random notes played by you or randomly triggered through some modulation software? Either way, great stuff.
*Electronic rock. Sounds like* **_IAMX_** *and* **_Depeche Mode_**
This is much better than it’s ever been before
Much more real
More rich
More speed
More more
I feel like I could go forever and it only hurts when I stop
This is much…
This album rocks! I was curious after discovering we had both named our albums the same title... good stuff. Reminds me of DM for sure! Very well produced songs.
*Electronic rock with jungle/drum-and-bass influence*
I've never really felt that I was ever good enough
But even I can be improved if I just stay tough
My teeth are metal reinforced
My eyes are plastic lens
And daemons run inside my head…
love the bass... love the claps, taps...wow.. I am really impressed with this album so far. this stuff inspires! so fluid... and not the least bit banal for a 12 minute track... it's constantly moving. you guys pulled it off.. the violins at 05:30 are so awesome. I hear a bit of dissonance in there too. Shit, I might as well be reviewing your album with these lengthy comment chapters. good stuff... You guys really made something special.
Lyrics:
I'm not sleeping
I'm staring at the ceiling
My mind's a thousand miles away
I'm finding faces in the shapes
of plaster that was scraped on the ceiling
Killing time is not so bad
but when you're trapped inside your head…
Love this track from start to end. I really like the drums/ambient sounds/bass/ at around 3:50. A very nice 'series of demos;' I look forward to hearing more.
Lyrics:
No one told me to watch my back
I was thinking 'bout what I lack
What's a boy supposed to do
Life has got me blue
No one told me to watch my back
Now it seems I've gone off the track
It wasn't that hard to do
It caught me by…
Lyrics:
Pass me a handle of that old time tennessee
It's been a while since I've seen the devil
It's a common mistake to think that I'm a sweet and gentle soul
but give me a chance to change your mind
Cause you have never seen me like…
Based on the first lines of a Hindu spiritual song I've had stuck in my head for years, this song was included on the RPM 08 world music category compilation. World music--crazy! Wouldn't have expected that, but I'm honored that it was nominated…
Comments on glu's stuff
I'm at 15:00 and it's been great so far.
I'm just 30 seconds in and I can tell I'm in for a treat...
I'm here at three minutes and very impressed! AND THEN IT BUILDS >>>>WOW
Your music is soo amazingly beautiful and inspiring.
