I'm not really sure how this came about, I borrowed some lyrics from Angie Fights Crime and added a reggae sound and a remix to "The Surreal Age of the Naked Lemon" which I'm doing for the Rmp challenge and this sort of popped out ...

Traditional song with an electronic arrangement. I don't have autotune so some of the notes are a bit wobbly sometimes. I rewrote the lyrics because I don't know the original verses.

I've now done 2 for the Rpm challenge but these were the easy ones.
Too much rubbish (in the pockets of our lives)
Spend half your life waiting for a train
Now you get to thinking that you should have caught the bus
So your waiting at the station…
Oh thanks, that's nice of you to put it on your Facebook. I don't have one of those but Tess does.
The music was written for the ballet Scheherazade.
But I believe the legend, she was a real person although it has been romanticised somewhat!
Thank you for your kindness!
Cheers Bethan

Ooo, unusual topic. I like your voice and the music is perky and hopeful which works really well alongside the nature of your lyric. The decision is made and you are happy with it! Nice!!
Act 1 Scene 3 - A Night on the Town, a glimpse into Fool's social life which is ... going round to his mates and getting stoned, going to the pub and the disco in an attempt to get a girl, which he manages to do in the last song.
gonna listen to the rest later, but this album is really, really, really cool. It's like a mixture of everything I like, and yet sounds like none of them.
Act 2 Scene 2 - The Gig - Fool and his friend Hotdog go to see The Seven Spiders in concert but there is a really heavy atmosphere and the bouncers are being aggresive ... they leave before the end and walk home together, the conversation turns…
Act 1 Scene 1 The Disco - this is music from my musical, the opening scene which is set in a disco (nightclub - if you are under 40!!). It explores the different perceptions of the club in a pseudo-political and economic view. Mr Evol - the…

I was flapping around working on something else with just vocal and guitar the other day. It wasn't going well, so I just started slapping the guitar and singing one of my favourite songs.
What I didn't realise was that I was recording it…
At last... I've managed to finish something.
This was written months ago. I was about to try recording it with one or two others when this year's decorating started. With various buggered fingers, back muscles, etc, etc, I wasn't actually able…
Track 3 from The Bunker 2013
Summer Breeze
The summer breeze
Brings it all back to me
starlight skies
Pull me to my knees to cry
But the Blue sky and the sun gives me hope
love will come to me again
The greys skies
Take my hope…
I've been trying to put another one of Mike's poems to music, but not getting anywhere.
Then jip threw this music at me, saying he hated it and asking if I could do anything with it. Pieces of Mike's poem went in and I sent it back to jip with…
I thought I'd uploaded this ages ago!
Less chaotic 'Chaos' after I found a melody I was happy with, and the delay button :)
Enjoy! xox
P.S. I knew I'd seen it on here somewhere - it was uploaded by Jip under Third Quarter of the Moon :)
I decided to challenge myself by requesting some beats from a beat producer, Ant 'Brave Toaster' Hughes. One of the beats was named Popcorn Chicken.
I added a few bits and pieces with my virtual keyboard (including a little Blondie tribute…
2nd song form the Bunker Sessions 2013..
Sunshine
The flower blooms all by its self
With the love from the sun and nothing else but a little rain and life becomes real
We need the sun and here it is
It sits above like gods…
This is a post-RPM version of this track. (I had gotten some feedback that it seemed incomplete, so I spent some time developing it.)
I'm going to leave the original version of the track available, since it's interesting to compare how the…
Dark little number. I just finished rereading "The Stand." That probably influenced the imagery of this song a little, though the message is actually pretty positive. It's about pushing through adversity.
THE TWO (or the witnesses)
You are the town and we are the clock.
We are the guardians of the gate in the rock.
The Two.
On your left and on your right
In the day and in the night,
We are watching you.
Wiser not to ask just…
Done as much as an exercise in learning GarageBand on my iPhone.
The backer is done entierly in GB but had to port it out to my Zoom R16 to record the vocal parts and master. Came out alright though I think.
Comments on The Old Grey Wolf Ltd Co's stuff
Lovely track!
mmmm - sounds right tasty.
Liked this a lot.
Wondefull work in every aspect Big upps to the old grey wolf ltd
@CMOR I think it's about 400 years old so I don't think anyone will be claiming copyright on it lol
Very interesting cover... Is it scarboro fair-trade? ;^D
Great tune and great mixing.
Love this take on Angie's lyrics (and then some!) - and as ever, I love your music, and your style! Smooooooth!!
I like this track... It takes me all over the mental map, right to where 'X' marks the spot!
I like the green maschine taste buds:)
The theremin sounds are a nice effect.

Maybe I'll roll one this weekend...ha!
Very enjoyable song about marry Jane:) Digging your vocals.
excellent work, love the album, really beautiful. It's like a modern pilgrim's progress... or something. ha.
gonna listen to the rest later, but this album is really, really, really cool. It's like a mixture of everything I like, and yet sounds like none of them.
Lovely stuff. I like the quirkiness, the fun music and your extraordinary vocal. Spellbinding!
A wonderful opener.....

Rockin' good
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose - surely one of the greatest lines every written, great version.
Nice.
:) Vaguely reminds me of Captain Lockheed by Hawkwind members, but love it.
Croon away, beautiful song.
This whole album has a magical retro feel about it, love it:)
very sweet :)
:)
Great, has distant echo's of early Chumbabwumba
:)
Never liked Adam Ant but this is not bad, I don't know the song, seems like the guy gets a raw deal out of it though
Excellent as usual, I don't expect anything less
Ahhh you fooled me, thought it was Velvet Underground cover, shucks. Good rockin' tune as usual.
Love the guitar sound,
:)
I hear cowboys in this song, nice.
Your lyrics are as crazy as mine, great song!!
One of my all time favs, great.
Yea yea, guilty of buying the original, good cover.
Nice and different.
