The last track that I'm going to upload for a while. I will be re-recording a few songs to release a LP under my own name. Hopefully it'll be good :)
This one is another exploration using loops and delays. I hope you like it!

Slower alt song, about 64bpm, lowest bpm i have wrote so far. Was a bit tricker than the rest. About 20 hours over 3 days for this track. Inspiration is a little varied.

Made a little song which ended up being about the veteran German footballer Torsten Frings (holding midfielder, can break forward).
Did it in an accent that started off being a bit Willy Mason, ended up a bit weirdyank.

Unfinished version of our second song. Still needs another verse, a re-do of the hook, equalizing, improved looping, and maybe a new title.
Still let us know what you think of it. Thanks for listening!
