A tune I made on my first attempt on my wife's Magix Music Maker software. She was impressed about how quickly I picked it up! A slightly revised second edition and it is ready for publication. Caution - contains all Magix loops.

While being a bartender for two weeks, I came across some women who were really "pressed", meaning the type that always had to dress to impress, excessive makeup and jewelry, etc. They served as my inspiration for this song because…

To get ready for every baseball season, my father used to pitch tennis balls to me in the backyard. He had invented a pitch that defied the laws of physics. To this day, I have no idea how he threw it. The damn thing would spin like crazy like…

The lyrics are loosely based on one of the strangest events I've witnessed while on public transportation (hey, maybe this is a concept album about commuting after all). The story is in fact pretty accurate until the end - despite the guy's sweet…

This just stemmed from deliberately trying to make a drum loop as distorted and ugly-sounding as possible. Violik from The Tapeworm Collective contributed the dubby bass and some strange noises.

The bell-like instrument that starts this off is actually a steel pan being pitch-shifted to different notes.

For whatever reason this album ended up having a lot of songs that could be low-budget horror movie themes.

As you can probably tell, I had a lot of fun with gratuitous panning and weird vocal effects on this album.

I'm proud to say this is one of the weirdest songs I've ever done. I got some more use out of the beer bottle here, this time hitting it with a pencil instead of blowing on it.

Of the whole album, this is the track I had most fun making. The instrumentation consists of accordion, beer bottle, work desk, toy keyboard, whistling, and scissors.

The lyrics were meant to be kinda stupid and obnoxious to set the bar really low for myself in an attempt to get over my chronic lyric-writing block.

One of my better tunes this year I think. Lyrics were meant to be an anti-"My Way". Instead of looking back on life all proud and selfassured, this is from the viewpoint of someone who has just realized he has been living his life on other peoples…

This tune was sounding so dramafree and happy-go-lucky that I decided to write some (uncharacteristically) dramafree and happy-go-lucky lyrics. The sound at the beginning is from my Nokia-phone which I also use as my alarmclock. I was then reminded…

I wanted to end this years record with a tune I could easily fall asleep to and I asked Peter Dematté to play sax over two alternating guitarchords I recorded. I really love what he came up with and have tried to built it into a stressfree track…

A song about being a frog.
On a leaf, on a branch, on a tree, in a field
I'm alone, like a man, but I'm small, and I'm green

i've got 100 hundred million friends
