So, I was just funnin' around. Mostly from the ambient menus, plus, I added some Zippo slide guitar with lots of FX. Then I added the internet porn queen wav file.
Lyrics:
Aaah Oooooo!!!
Here's another tune from the Wild and Wacky world of Rubber.
Special thanks to Erin - The Panes for lending us her magnificent voice.
As usual, we tore it up and turned it up side down.
Thanks again Erin.

One for my electronic friends. It's just a bunch of patches mixed with MIDI and glued together with 1 part water, 2 parts flour, and 2 parts ectoplasma.
Enjoy!
Ring of Fire - lyrics by Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash -1963. Slightly modified.
This wasn't meant to be Ring of Fire but that's how it wound up.
I have been wanting to trash Ring of Fire and the words just seem to fit this simple 1-4-5…
This is a tune that's been on the back burner for a bit. I was looking to get a dark Ultravox kind of sound. Anyone feel like puttin' on their Midge Ure hat???
Anyway, these aren't the droids your looking for.

I picked up on one of Norm's wonderful grooves.
I added some bass, guitar, horns, and a basic drum track. Kicker and snare with a few cymbols. I didn't want to walk on Norm's fine, fine, percussion.
Thanks Norm for allowing me the opportunity…

Enjoy!
