I had some lyrics describing a late nite cake baking experience kicking around. If I have a lot on my mind, dirtying every dish in the house seems like the right thing to do.

I couldn't get anything right today so I just mashed through a guitar track and overlayed vocals. But now I kind of like the song so it will have to be redone.

A little rough but I loved making it.
My friend Dave had bought a Roland GR-20, so it was critical he did the solo in the middle and end :)
Oh, all made on the Boss Micro BR. Love that thing!!
This was fun to make!

I went once about 2 years ago and played drums. Lotsa fun but a stupid thing to do with a bad back!

I love you. And I'm watching you... :)
All one take into the Boss MicroBR hole and cleaned up a little. I'm the red headed stepchild of recording...
Love You
Some people want to know you
Wanna put their arms around you
Buy you a drink…

Am i listening to Steve Miller meets War meets Zappa here? This is soooo cool!
You should get Bowie to sing backup on this!
I prefer angel cake though....;>)

I hate to say it, but your guitars tuning drives me insane (in a nice way) but I can hear the song and it's cool. Your vox are very good. Thanks for the compliment on Stromfront, yes, I'm a chorus ho'...;>)
Stereo chorus is even better! I use it on guitars & vox (if it's good enough for Ozzy, then...;>)

Launched my friend. Well done yet again. I like how you "phrase" you vocals. That's my new word for the month.
P.S- "The devil might get me
On any given day
He'll come up from behind
And drag me away"-- love it.

Here's a new one. Well, a new old one, actually... And a bit different than the last one!
Something old, something new, something borrowed, and, er, something blue...

**Nobody Loves You - A A J Russe**
Nobody loves you
Like you…
Yes, I love it. The subtle/strong cadences switch around enough to easily glide through 4+ minutes. Well done with that - I'm inspired to try something lengthy that doesn't sound like it has filler in it.
The heart of the song's meaning kept you from hitting the delete button - That's what makes me like it even more!
DREAMING
Inside the dream I'm drowning
I struggle for the shore
I'm swimming 'neath the surface
I'm sinking ever more
While Davy Jones is laughing
And Neptune scoffs at me
I'm swimming on with purpose
I'm frantic to be free

There's some harmonic thing going on in the background that is so delicious I'm on my second listen because of it. A great tune, love that panned electric picking, so sweet. Wicked vocals, must have listened to this five times by now, way too short!
That distorted bass riff is wicked glue man! The blues runs are quite a treat too - And now all I can think about is the mailman we have. I just know he's doing something crazy after work :)
Pink Floyd - Echoes (Waters, Wright, Mason, Gilmour)
Overhead the albatross
Hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
An echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand
And…
Yes, well done to both of you! Bethan, I just love the vocal presentation - Haven't heard you in a while and the less reverb offering is outstanding!
And Paul, yeah you got it too bro :)

Happy Sunday Alonetoner's.
I wrote this song yesterday as I had some recent events to ponder.... I hope you like it. Trying for a bit of a bluesy feel. If you'd like to download it and add some background blues bass or guitar, or harmonies…
Another wacky production from the stretchy, bouncy, and elastic world of Rubber. Special thanks to Mark (Launched) for writing this one for us.
We had a whole bunch of fun with this song and you will too.
Enjoy!

With Big Time Operator, who originally uploaded his awesome music with the offer that anyone can add vocals...too good to miss! Love this music, and had loads of fun wailing. Thanks Chris!
Played on BBC Radio Introducing. :)

It's been a bit since I've even written a song, but I'm itching to get back to hurting people's ears again :) RPM next year! Great to hear back from your, love your stuff!

Very cool mate tops.
Top track mate very cool.
geez, if college had been this fun and sleazy for me, I might have actually graduated. great song!

A groovy tune!
Get a bigger recording deck! So where in NH are you? I'm in Allenstown, a bit south of Concord.
Love the vox! Reminds me of Paul Simon...;>)
Chorus on vox! I love it! This is a catchy tune, I'd love to hear a 'heavier' drummer on it.
Am i listening to Steve Miller meets War meets Zappa here? This is soooo cool! You should get Bowie to sing backup on this! I prefer angel cake though....;>)

this is very good - like the solid vocal harmonies and leads.
YeaH!!!
In a word..... Killer!!!!!!!!
I like consistently like your style of music.
beautiful song, i liked the recording of the vocals, congrats!

I dig this big time bro!
Oh yeah!! corn whiskey grows on trees around here.
I like the harmonies man. Nice, pleasant vox.
bummer about the memory card, I know the feeling, losing songs blows. I like the song, lyrics are awesome too

"There's your drink!" Love it!! You make the coolest music my man!

The heart of the song's meaning kept you from hitting the delete button - That's what makes me like it even more!
Yes, this is my bag. Love the vibe, very cool. Sounds like something you'd hear in Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul, House, etc. I'm impressed!
There's some harmonic thing going on in the background that is so delicious I'm on my second listen because of it. A great tune, love that panned electric picking, so sweet. Wicked vocals, must have listened to this five times by now, way too short!

Not predictable at all. Yes.
Yes, well done to both of you! Bethan, I just love the vocal presentation - Haven't heard you in a while and the less reverb offering is outstanding! And Paul, yeah you got it too bro :)
Yessah! Makes me think of Blade Runner for some reason... Excellent recording Greg!
I'm gonna miss you to no end my musical brother.
I forgot to tell you lately that I luv ya bro!
I liked what Big Time Operator did with your vocal track. Great voice indeed.
Then it switches to the perfect world - Love it!
Modern Neil - Awesome!!
Did we really do this guys? Got some ribs in the smoker, wish I had frog legs too! :)
I'm all smiles!
It's been a bit since I've even written a song, but I'm itching to get back to hurting people's ears again :) RPM next year! Great to hear back from your, love your stuff!
I see this is older, haven't had a chance to get on here much but I'm blown away by the vocals. I love it.
I'm really digging your RPM stuff. Think I'll just play your thread right through - Well done man!
Yes! Love it Alex - Simple and powerful right to the very end. I really enjoyed the possible/improbable lyrics and singing with the falsetto.
Haven't been on much lately, but so glad I caught this! A collaboration at its best right here - Love it!
