Proof that a cheap electric guitar can be a substitute for a drum kit.

Again substituting a guitar for a drum kit but this time an acoustic.
Structurally, a more straight-forward piece, sounding more like a band than some of the other Ca Va? Oui, Ca Va! songs.

Another one from back when I was tracking to actual tape. Was going to do a new version at some point, but decided I had lost interest. Sometimes there's no sense in recreating the past! Recorded probably the beginning of 2007

I don't have the source-files for this one, but I think it was made in 2004, probably in the winter

A badly-tuned kalimba, a toy drum and a novelty stapler... Pop genius.

First take guitar part that I just liked the feeling of, which sounds a bit like a haunting version of Jeff Buckley's 'Hallelujah'.

Beat created from different strokes on an electric guitar, which is probably of no suprise. Pretty simple arrangement but a fairly strong melancholy-pop song.

The only song I ever wrote about an actual person I knew. She's heard it and she now sings all corny and gets the words wrong.

called this track 'dirty awakenings' because it sounds like dirty awakenings.

It's the "do no harm" mix.

This is my second experiment with "song form".

Using the microKORG, GarageBand drum kits, and a cheap acoustic guitar. Beware, it is far from done. The final version will likely be longer and less repetitive (if possible).
