Alors tout va bien!

Acceptable

Oh I'm kind of disappointed, I was picturing a lonely chicken breast, dry on a tray... now you're getting all fancy.

"chicken in the oven"?! Ooh la la, c'est de la haute cuisine! I can barely manage a pot rice meself.

où est le boeuf?

Pulsatile Tinnitus - track 12 from The Boy In The Diving Bell (out last August).

Had a rough weekend? Let this soothe your mind. I joke. It is wall to wall musique concrete noise, mangled through an old Akai tape machine.

Sometimes this is what it sounds like in my head.

I've wanted a hardware console for most of my adult life. I live on a Scottish island. The shipping alone would be a nightmare. I don't have the money. I don't have the space.
So I built one in software. Exactly the way I always wanted it.

That song was Great Buckets of You, on my Apprentice Green album.

One time many moons ago, I sat down with a guitar & recorded whatever came into my head. An entire song tumbled out: chords, words and all. One take, improvised. It's never worked again, not the other 3254 times I've tried. But at least we got one, complete.

Who wants some?

'I Hate You' is track 11 on The Boy in the Diving Bell (out last August). Double-tracked acoustics and vocals, folky riff, nice melody, I tried to ruin it by blasting the psychedelic accordion piano in the mix. It's the kind of thing I do. song.link/TheBoyInTheD...

I use a lot of broken old gear from the 70's and 80's, by the time I'm done passing a signal through, it's practically all hiss and hum! Love it.

Steady on now!

A wall of dogshit!

Way ahead of you...

Well I am wearing a hat backwards and no socks, that's pretty weird right?

I think that just means you have taste

Weirdly listening to Debussy right now.

I like that! Hearing the room is something a lot of music is definitely lacking.

Anyone else enjoy the silence between notes as much as the notes themselves?

Thank you!

Toothful is track 10 on The Boy In The Diving Bell, out last August. Probably my favourite guitar part on the album. Major Elliott Smith inspirations throughout.

I've seen Castaway, you gotta get resourceful
