Chris and Bethan - Spellbinding collaboration... Dramatic, exciting, and beautifully performed. Love the reverse vocals at the end - sounds French! Super cool.

Crumbs Chris, that's incredible. Sounds really good, the music is superb, very nightmarish but dreamy too. Yeah, most impressed.
@Jane, Trev and Kavin, thank you, we had a great time.
I've been going to a lot of performance poetry nights recently, and this is amazing, Bethan. You'd go down a storm at my local Art House! Great collab :)
For a friend who touched my heart
Emotion - 1975
Delicatly, softly,
Not knowing where she wants to be
Confusing, disillusioning,
Not knowing who she wants to be
Pulled from side to side
And inside about to die
She screams, I can't take it…

OOOOh Bethan - the equipment was so bad it picked up Citizen's Band radios that were over-driven beyond the legal limit. Nonetheless. I still had the crush :-)

lots of different things I tried in this one, mostly in structure and vox, as well as harmony and texture. I guess it is a progressive type song with some gloom.
the intro is a short bass thing with effects called nectar, its like 25 sec.s…

I've enjoyed your work too - though mostly via Sound-In - Alonetone... I've found less and less time for AT as I've been getting more active in the microtonal community. However, Sound-In... I wait for every week :-)
Dawn awaits – SKEEN 121013
The beating, of her heart up next to mine,
So sweetly keeping time
Stirring, from her slumber through the night
Slowly opens….her eyes shine brighter than the mooonlight through the trees
Awake, my darling from…

Brilliant, yawl. I swear I could be happy listening to B read a phone book.
like it good mood
Just realized I really like this song, but rarely hear it. You may have topped the original.
Definitely sounds like an Indian influence here. Nice work Chris. I like the tone too, sounds like a really good guitar. Bethan
Really nice! I gotta get me an old electric and pull the frets off sometime!
Not what I was expecting at all but they are there, on the end.I think you are getting good at this Chris. Yes, very clever. Cheers Bee

I should mention the echo was a real echoplex... I do miss it.

If by fuzzy wuzzy you mean touching my heart - well I had a crush on Cindy.
Sound advice! I hope she found happiness, and in a world with not a lot of it, I hope she was lucky. I wonder why "Fuzzy wuzzy" Nice one Chris! Bethan
it is a vintage 1975 cassette recording with bad equipment - please listen to the spirit, not the reality.
Like fresh,spring water! Chris this piece is absolutely gorgeous! I would buy it! Bee
