Angela! Great to hear from you! Unfortunately this site has no private mail feature, so I'm replying here.
I would love to finish this song - with YOUR vocals. Nobody can interpret your lyric as authentically as yourself.
Please let me know if you're up for it!
Regards,
Steffen

This is a very old tune that finally got recorded the way I had always envisioned it. The only thing missing is real drums, but I think the midi drums could be worse. :)

I had this tune in my head for years before I finally sat down and recorded a quick draft of it. I would like to record this with real instruments (acoustic guitar + electric lead guitar).
Anybody interested in helping me?

This song was written on guitar by Kari Eskola from Finland. He sent me his guitar track along with this fantastic vocal recording by Emmi Inkeri asking me to replace the guitar with a piano accompaniment.
I tried my best, knowing that I'm not…
Original comment by Andy Gupta:
A 70s hard rock jam style of track. With incredible parts by Billy, Steve and Marcel, capped off by a meaty mix by Steffen.
Thanks so much guys!!!

I'm not sure if John really had intended to write a funny lyric, but we thought it was funny - and so this became a funny song. At least I think so. :)
In the beginning there was a stupid little synth demo. This is what became of it with a…
While I was going through my old stuff I found this forgotten tune. I think it was the first or second collab I've ever done with Billy Playle. We met at a long gone collaboration site called OMF (OpenMusicFactory, run by Alessandro da Lisca…
Wow, Errol, what a wonderful song. Production is great too - except the drums (I'm not crazy about the sound).
Is that you singing? I would not have recognized your voice. Great job, really.
I had to give this a listen because it is one of my favorite Cohen songs - although I like the Rufus Wainwright version even better than Cohen's.
Yours is a very interesting interpretation. Something you have to listen to with dedication. It did not grab me immediately - but after a couple of bars you had me. And now I'll hit that heart button thing up there. :)
This song was born on the 18th of Feb. 2011. It was the last piece I wrote/recorded for the challenge. It was a very sad day for me, almost as if all my usual winter sadness was concentrated and crammed into one day. The process of writing and…
This is a collaboration with a prolific chap called James Higgins (oldrottenhead on songcrafters.org), based on an instrumental of mine from a couple of years ago: http://alonetone.com/andyr/tracks/muletide
I was quietly minding my own business…
This is one of my all time favorites, and I was sure nowbody could sing this better that Rufus Wainwright. But I was wrong. Your version is just as good as his one.
I like Cohens own version very much too, btw. :)
A song about the five stages of grieving, as devised by the (late) Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. Unfortunately knowing these stages does not help you get over them.
You've been managing expectations
Consultations end in tears
Even if you're optimistic…
Standing, waiting, shivering, waiting, hoping, waiting, crying - all the while being cruelly mocked by the passage of time, and my analogue watch. It was not a very nice night.
Peter Fedofsky plays the piano on this song.
If you could…
At the 23rd hour we consider whether we've made the right decisions.
Written and recorded less the 48 hours before the end of the RPM challenge deadline. I wonder why.
Is this our 23rd hour
Sixty minutes to go

I'll be trying to set up my computer/lambda/mic this weekend and start working on this again. :) I can't wait to work on music again.

I need more German friends, please introduce me to them. Thank you. Great mellow piece. Just what I needed this morning.

Interesting sort of inspiration. ;) Not bad, Geir. A more psychedelic mix might suit the song even better. But it sounds good as is.
Privet! :) Great music and vocals. Please post more. And more. And more ... :D
Very nice! I guess I'll listen to this song a couple more times tonight. :)

If this is what arises from depression, then there is at least one good thing about that. It's a good song, enjoyed it!
Very nice. Could well be the soundtrack for a documentary film on TV.
Wow, guys, that's a TREMENDOUS improvement on an already pretty impressive track. I love it. Great job!
Great vintage sound. Right up my alley! :)
I don't know the original, but your version sounds good. :)
Ah, damn, forgot to log in again. That latest comment was mine. ;)
If I don't stop listening to your songs now I will end up hitting the "favorite" button for all of them! :)
WOW, what a delivery. Your British accent is perfect for this. :)

What a ridiculously GREAT song! :D
Very good, downloaded. :)
Clearly influenced by the Beatles, the Beach Boys and such ... And a superb performance.
I love that piano and how your voice goes together with it. Great song!
Very nice listen! :)
Wonderful - I hear a lot of influences from many of my musical heroes, but yet you have your very own style.
