The almost proper halloween update.

Uncategorised

Ok so, this one’s not particulary scary. Or haunting. Or hallowed. But it’s been sitting on my hard drive for a good while, and I thought it’s about time.

ABORRENEAN EARRIP BLUES is horrible. Not that it’s made poorly, I just kind of anticipate that nobody’s ever going to like it nor use it. So go ahead, prove me wrong!

It’s cold, heavy, repetitive and highly mathematical, electrikc mayhem.

About the making of the song… I gotta quote Sister Mary Lazarus here: “It was hell on earth, I loved it.”

Happy halloween folks.

Lol in the flesh.

Few of my songs have made me actually laugh out loud. Not lol, that doesn’t mean squat. But you know, belly moving, mucus escaping, slowly dying and then restarting laughter.

I remember one time the laughing struck when I started thinking, what would 14 year old me think about the song I had just completed. And I tell you, the 14 y/o brat would’ve not approved. (The song in question was “Melange pour trois”, found in the jazz category.)

Next weeks song caused some painful smiling, but for very diffrent reasons. More of that later on. In a week to be precise.

HEADLESS TURQUOISE caused some hysterical giggling during the final stages of it’s making. The tune is just so stupidly fun.

See for yourself.

Do do.

What do you get when you combine 1-ups, mellotrons with natural delay, lofi percussions and bass, playing nonsense, horribly out of tune?

DONCE CAPRI is definitely not the most convential dance music. But hey, it moves & grooves and it’s got untss.

Fun little coincidence of the day: The tunes lenght is also Donald Ducks cars licence plate!

Blast from the past.

All retro gamers out there rejoice! QUEST FOR FIRE is made entirely with NES emulators. (NES standing for Nintendo Entertainment System)

I’ve used some NES sounds before, as well as SIDs, but this time I wanted to limit myself to use only those good old shrieks & buzzes.

Overall it’s a simple and fun little piece.

Yarr.

Ok, here’s another latin tune for ya. This one’s probably the most authentic of those I’ve made.

Acoustic guitar is the star in PLATINUM TRAILS, there being several of ’em. It adds a nice spanish touch for the otherwise latinic feel.

I think back in the ’70s this sort of stuff was called latin jazz fusion. Because I fail to see the jazz in it, and because I can, I’m gonna call this one spanish latin fusion.

And oh yes, the Treasure Fleet and the Silver Train just got a competitor.

The neighbouring song part deux.

My songs – as well as these posts – surprisingly often come in pairs. You know, you just involuntarily end up making two tunes that share the same qualities. Stupid self-plagiarist!

KAT NIP is definately kin to my previous tune “Doge pep”, found in the pop section. And like it’s predecessor it’s about (overly) chirpy, but still loveable domesticated animals.

Yep yep.
