The Phantom Pirate (Captain Isaac Goldsack) - Mash up mix
Lady Jane
Based on a poem by William Sharp that I found while researching my family history.
The poem has been put to music once already, by one Christopher Goldsack, http://www.sundown.pair.com/Sharp/piratepoem.htm but I wanted to put my own little twist on it.
Horror meets pirate meets disco meets jungle meets me reading poetry - yes, a total mash up!
Samples from Mixcraft used in the making of The Phantom Pirate :)
Enjoy xox
Aye, that Captain is a creeper, a'skulkin' down irie morning. 'N'ah cannah tell from the way he is lookin' at you, never you mind the peacock feather in 'is hand, but, yea cannah be sure that his intentions are matching your ambitions, that, 'e be sure to sell you your hand, after you've had a hook fitted to replace: in fact, the Captain will *serve* you your hand, parboiled with a side of parsnips, under the irie moon, if'n you 'aven't found something to eat, by then. Yaargh.
Dancey you're right! I don't manage to get everything down on tape, but I do some similar things. I've got books full of lyrical ideas. Fab
Patti Smith meets Donovan down below the ocean, love it.
Really well done your ladyship! I like the way it funks up half way through! Bethan
Wild!!!! Excellent spoken word spinning this eerie tale, and the music is stirring and dramatic! Fun and scary!
Wow, this is really well done. I can 'see' the story.
Nice
This is a real grower. I appreciated it when you first posted it, but it didn't grab me personally - i was in a different place, I guess. But listening again today - woo... I been grabbed :)
This is a spine tingler. So now I have to ask . . . how does this relate to your family history?
Among the tangled weed, yah Hoh Good one!
