on Game Over by silverman
Reminds me slightly of a more modern Utah Saints. Very good. Nice mix and stereo seperation with just a hint of chup tune at the end. I enjoyed that.

OK so Ed McMahon is being a total dillwad about putting the box there. He is saying something like " My Scrotum Sails need space" or some BS like that. Angela is no better she says her rectum is full of gas by now and there is no space in the inn. So I moseyed on over to the manger that lies adjacent to the Motel 6, moved the box of Myrrh and the Vial of Frankincense, and lo and behold I saw the most whacked out Meth lab. I cried out "Jesus" like 5 times and I swear I got a reply of yes? 5 times, each time growing deeper and deeper with anger with me. So Jesus (Heh-zeus) asked me (not so politely what I was doing here and why I was holding a box of developmentally challenged Aphids. I said to him I was trying to find a "special"place for them. So Jesus took his bottle of water and made a place for the mentally challenged aphids. and he passed me the bottle. But as I looked at the Bottle it had changed to a Box merlot, and couple of fish sticks and a pepperidge farm loaf of pumpernickel bread. Neat Trick I replied. Jesus looked at me puzzled as I was still holding the Kirkland brand bottle of water and said, get away from the Meth fumes ... there making you talk stoopid. So I took his advice and started walking..noo skipping down the street towards the nearest Tim Hortens. But I could find no Tim Hortens as I was in America. And so I became sad. And the sadness lingered causing me to emote dark songs that sloedirt would feed off of the dark energy to resurrect himself from the shadows of the looperman site. At this point I longed for my igloo and all of it's frigid warmth, but I was stuck in middle america. I clicked my snowshoes together and shouted, "there's no place like Ottawa, There's no place like Ottawa", and I was instantly transported back to Gatineau...Quebec is better ;-) ...... and that's how the Legend of the American Aphid is told every year by campfire in small towns in Canada ,always.

Ahhh,... the old American Aphid legend. Yes, my Grandfather spoke of it. His eyes would get misty and stare far off into the distance, and he would always rub the scar on his arm from where he fought off a well trained and heavily armed aphid horde back in WWII, (you know, the big one.)

He says they came just before dawn, during shift-change. Twitchy Tony went first. Quarter-million aphids, right to the neck. Their sheer number muffled the sound of cracking vertibre. Second was Tuggs, (a name earned from chronic masturbatory issues). He was taking a leak over by the abatis, when a whole aphid platoon rode up his piss-stream, entering the body. They lost several more, till my Grandfather was alone, cornered, welding only a bayonet and a can of clam chowder. Seeing that the can could do the most harm, they lunged at the left arm first, causing serious damage and skidding the can across the floor. "So this is it", he said, knowing he was about to be nibbled down to nothing. With a bayonet raised and a primal scream, he charged,.... but was blown back by the wing-wind from a billion Ladybugs that inundated the encampment. The aphids were incredulous, and they died incredulous. "Fuck'em" he said, lighting a cigarette that came from nowhere, and walked in slo-mo to a waiting chopper, that also came out of nowhere.

War is hell.

on synth X by promenade2239
Nice mix of analogue synths and jazz sensibilities. It made some sweet background music as well. It's chill and avante-garde. takes the best of the boys from sheffield in the seventies and the brilliance of modern chill-jazz. good work.

Hello Steve

Thank you for your nice words!
This is a track I made last Sunday afternoon playing with 'colors' trying to expand the sound sonically so to speak (acoustically, electronically or whatever). Nothing much of a true melodic substance or a solid, evolving, dynamic-oriented song-writing work in here (but I am still struggling going definitely into that direction so do not worry). No metric modulations - just few jazzy chords and some basic drumming and simple structure alternating the elements.

Thanks for pointing some connections to older music - I absolutely love classic recordings.
Glad you enjoyed some of musical illusions I created intentionally or not

Best to you, Alex

I had an epiphany the other day. Your voice sounds so much like the lead singer (twin brothers) in the eighties UK band Hue & Cry.

on The Trust - 2016 by aelmen
I'm sorry c64 commodore 64? I used to compose on a commodore Vic20 when I was a kid in 1983. 3.5k with a super expander to make it 16k. Programmed in basic. square waves, 3 channels with 1 channel of white noise to simulate drums. I wish an example survived to this day.
Cool use of an old phrase.

Ok, VIC-20! Then you know about programming music, totally different from playing the instrument. Besides Vacuum, Programming music in BASIC must be the hardest way of creating music that I know. :)

If you ever released your tune in any way, demo or something the tune may be on the internet. I've found all of my old tunes even on youtube these days.

Where shall the violin solo go?
Well that's so easy, right next to the LCD Television right behind the love swing and the pantry filled with rhino phalluses. GAWD, it's like you have no sense of space sometimes. Just move the box of retarded aphids 3 milinches to the right and you will see what I am saying. Oh and be careful not to trip over the acid reflux calendar nailed to the Ottoman Empire which might be attacking the persian rug as we speak. Oh shit I forgot about the chandelier. Sia...SIA...SIA..come down from there..SIA!! ahh that stubborn Aussie. She never listens as well as that muted Major Tom urn filled with his ashes. Ashes that are starting to go funk to funky, if you know what I mean. I mean where should that go....ah next to the Violin solo...see it's that simple.

The box of retarded aphids CAN"T move 3 milinches, that's where the mosquito pubes are stashed! And you remember the kind of time I had harvesting those, don't you? Each plucked by mouth! Fattest lip I've ever had. The box of "aph-idiots" can go beneath the subway poster of Angela Lansbury, naked with a hose, siphoning gas from her own ass. You know, the one I got to replace the one I stained,.... of Ed Mcmahon brandishing two yards of scrotal skin like he's about to flip a wad of rubbery pizza dough into the air....... Let's put the box there.

on This Mean Motor Scooter by Evisma
Is this the song that will finally replace "99 bottles of beer" as the family go to song on long trips. one can only hope so. I love 1:12 to 1:30. 2:31 that little distorted guitar part is nice as it leads us back into the fury. Holy Shiites...is that a space cadet full blown synth (like) solo from the realms of Acidonia. And then that ending. Nice work Evan. The only thing lacking is an electric violin solo! Oh and more of your vocals! They fit great in this song processed like you did. Had to listen to it again.

We could move the love-seat, but then we'll need another end-table, and we won't be able to find one that matches the old one, so the love-seat stays right where IT'S fuckin AT!.

We could try,.... JUST TRY, mind you,..... to put that corner-curio that holds all the miniature glass vaginas into the dining-room. Wild idea, I know, but then the love-seat can be slid down the wall to the corner, eliminating the need for an end-table,.... so,...... yeah, that's what we're gonna fuckin do. Here, zip your pants and help me push this sum'bitch. Oh,... you're busy eating an ice-cream sandwich. That's cool. I'll just slay some "Duck Hunt" till you're done.

Poptastic song. Key of Aminor and your basic Am to DM then to G F and back to G or a I IV6 VII VI VII structure. very nice indeed. Arranged fantastically as well as I love those guitars. I was soloing along to it on the Piano tonight.

Ok I will be the first to comment. This is futuristic and keep going with this. Compelled me from start to finish. I see it's in e major and I was soloing right along with this on piano. It also plays around with the dissonant. There is a lot right with what you have done. I can also hear the potential of this as well. Keep at this one. let me know if I can help in any way, I love this!

on Hypnoculars by Evisma
So Now that you have been Gobsmacked by the nomad, let me let you turn the other cheek. Nice intro ;54 builds a nice tension. 1:52 certainly gets your attention. Nice prog synth BTW. 2:27 pulls the old pixies bring it back down trick. 3:16 is back with a vengeance. I think in the second measure of this onslaught you should have added some double bass drums before you went into the Rainforest Café theme. And It ends with me ordering the Galapagos Tortoise feast with a side dish of DoDo wings only to find out they are fresh out of DoDo wings (something about being extinct) so I settle on the dolphin fritters as an appetizer, My wife gets the Rainbow Warrior trout. And we end the meal with some fair trade chocolate that we made some children scurry for in Africa and sell to us .....at a (eye wink) Fair Trade price. ohh wait---the Long Pig is on special...hmmmmnnn.

The Big "C"!

New avatar is hip. It's the cover of AC/DC's new album about selling lots of Converse. First single? "Shoe To Thrill".

"I think in the second measure of this onslaught you should have added some double bass drums before you went into the Rainforest Café theme."

Agreed. I always wish I'd added more detailed drums and percussion to all my tracks after I'm done with them.

"Galapagos Tortoise....DoDo.....dolphin fritters....Rainbow Warrior trout.....fair trade chocolate..... Long Pig"

I prefer Spotted Owl Kabobs and Snow Leopard Jerky, though we both know the best dipping sauce is made from a reduction of the tears of those scurrying African children. Mmmmm...... despair.

I appreciate the listen and the kind words, along with much appreciated advice. Thanks again.

thank you for listening and nice words! I am glad you liked my jazzy style. There is so much of new music I have in my head - sadly there are many work commitments at the moment as well. From that perspective this track is appearing as something very far-distant to me.
I am looking forward to hear new productions from you - I will return soon to the listening.

on Holy snowfall - Soleil Lune ft XyIlent by SoraSolitudine
First and foremost this does not belong in the weird category because it is anything but weird. You have an ear for arranging sounds together to make a coherent song and in this one you have just been brilliant at it. I could go into a rational explanation of what I liked and what I might change (don't change anything BTW) but what I loved about this song is that it captured me for 10 minutes of my time with a cool spirit and energy that was a reminder of Christmas but something beautiful on it's own as well. This Holiday my wife is not well and spending it in the Hospital. As I leave the hospital everyday it takes a piece of my soul each visit. This song has helped me this christmas evening to feel better. And in any work that we may produce the ultimate goal is to touch people emotionally. This tune touched me this evening and I thank you for doing that. Have a great Christmas.

First, I hope your wife recovers her health. I know it's hard, but all will be ok. I'm sure of that.

I'm glad that you liked this track. Even with the disaster on EQ and the stuff that I didn't understand to asidRn, I'm happy that this melody have made you feel better.

Well, the first idea was to make a sad song, and I almost call this song "gloomy Christmas" or something dark. I'm glad have changed of mind.

If you want to thank someone, do it to Xyilent. Without his loop, I hadn't known how to start or what to do.

Well, all will be alright. Have faith.

Merry Christmas from Ecuador.

on Xyilent - Who Are You by XyIlent
cool work my friend. song has an ominous overtone in it but well structured chill. Perfectly executed theory. My only suggestion is to change his vocals to be less re-verbed and they won't blend in the background as much. Or keep the verb and add a second line of his voice dry mixed in to clarify his words when the music is blasting at you. But really a beautiful idea and executed very nicely. fav'd

Thanks alot, Cru. I hope my stupidity isn't showing, too much, but I'm assuming the 'phaser-pad' is what our keyboardist is playing? I know of David Bowie, but will look up the others.

Yes, the older stuff does appeal to us, greatly. The newer stuff just doesn't have that "IT" factor.

Always a great pleasure hearing your comments...Please keep them coming.
