You've got a really good feel here, man. Haunting piano-work and great lyricism. I really like your singing too. Nothing to critique here. Perfection. Thanks for listening to my tracks as well. I hope you liked it. I really need to work on lots of things.
I hope you are getting gigs doing this stuff man. Keep up this style and you will go somewhere for sure ^.^

slightly different mix for sinbad multitrackstudioforum who suggested a vocal boost and some creepy Vincent Price reverb(i may have given it too much of a boost though)
sort of vaguely electroskank arrangement with some hints of klezmer &…

Great remix ....like the out of breath sounding vocal...and the crazing percussion...piano's great....i'm going to sleep in a sweat tonight with my own character disorder.....the imagery the music conjures is excellent sat here in the dark.....i can feel my chest filling with anxiety....hope it's not a heart attack......love to see and hear this on a stage ...well....who am i kidding ..... i will tonight in my dreams ....excellent job
live in the kitchen vox + piano only no fx version
and i don’t know what you mean

i try to find some kind of escape but i’m afraid that i’m just too late
all my thoughts they whirl around…
Simple acoustic song I wrote for a girl that never cared. In her words, right when I finished and told her I wrote her it(my first song too) "Stop trying to sound like someone youre not." glad I got away.

great song, great performance, tone just right for the words
fabulous! great words, great voice, fine music beautifully performed
lovely!
the doors got this fine song from brecht/weil. nice version tregs
:-)
nice lyrics tregs
:-)
sounding (doh!)
a great confection from unlikely souding ingredients
this one is particularly nice
are the dogs from a casio sk5?
love your diffuse varied & original lo-fi creativity , songwriting reminds me of daniel johnstone & jad fair
"and is it any wonder i'm not considered sane" sung in that tone of voice is wonderful
Reg was right, the vxguitars are superb. Great lyrics perfectly set & backed. i would favourite this if i could work out how
lovely
sounds great but i can't make out the words, which is annoying
really like this - reminds me of the firesign theatre
beautifully read
