An instrumental.
As the world becomes a harsher place, I often feel like just sitting back and letting it happen. If everyone in the planet just sat back it would not be so harsh and aggressive.

A small tune I wrote - to say sorry to the ones I love. After an argument, I realise that the ones who are closest are the ones who bear the very undeserved brunt of anger and frustration.

This song was inspired when I caught a housefly, put it in a jar to record it's sound. It made me realise that maybe we have just been put on this planet for a superior beings' pleasure and entertainment.
Are we just flies in the jamjar?

The reason behind the purpose can often lead to questions. These questions lead to the understanding that existence is only there to mediate the question why? This small short song illustrates this, with improvised verse and musical dabbling. |

From conception to birth we are protected from the outside world. Once exposed (born) we are influenced by the ways of the planet through the instructions of our parents. Learning as we grow, we realise that simple acceptance may not be the path to the truth.
How much did they affect you?

I'm always looking for the truth! If you found it, what would you do?
The Jehova's Witnesses came calling one day. All they talked about was the Truth.
I told them some of my own True stories and they did not beleive me. Who's truth is more valuable? Does it have any value? |

A small song created from a simple, but catchy, sample recorded from my 6-year-old son. It seems to go down really well with the 3-9 year olds. I tried to emphasise on an American Indian beat throughout the song to give it that tribal feel. If anything, this song was just good fun to do. |

When we do anything, we go through a cycle of thoughts and feelings provoked by the situation at hand.
This song concentrates on the issues of 'going to the unknown' and the barriers faced. I know it's a long tune, so chill-out, listen, learn and enjoy. |

I would regard myself as 'genre free', or at least, uninfluenced directly to other forms of music.
This is a tune written about the pulling power of the house/techno/rap/hiphop/rock/regge/jazz/soul/...the list is endless........................ styles
I really hate pigeon-holes for music.
I'm just doing my stuff here in a 'house' style. |

That crap feeling that sometimes can sweep over you so unexpectedly. You feel like you don't care because no one else does and you just can't be bothered to fight it. I used a dig delay on a fret-less bass here to simulate the pathetic apathy induced by the deep joy of depression.
Well! listen and think of your worst day ever |

A little up tempo tune that reflects the instict of just having to do what you have to do.
I would describe it as Electromotivational and created as my own personal 'kick up the arse' track. I guess I just have to do this.

A bass song on growing old.
This song portrays that horrible feeling of realisation of consciousness that you 'really are' growing old. Hey there is no turning back for me here, so I'll just record my thoughts.
Deep within, there is this little voice that tells me I'm still a child inside my heart and mind. |

I did this song some time ago (1986). Digitally revamped for your pleasure. I was drunk at the time and was simply showing a friend what I did with a Sony 2-track reel2reel recorder. A good old jam saved here in cyberspace!
I only knew 2 chords then E&A thus the track.
With hind sight this song is very chauvinistic in meaning. You have believe me that this song was sung with the one I love in mind. |

I Can get away with it too.
This song is crap. I really mean it. Honest!
It's just a lot of crap which represents the totality of what I heard on the radio one day whilst driving through the country.
I said to myself in the car "What's it aw aboot man!" and the idea stuck, so here it is.

Hmm, sleeping.
Is this the place where I belong? I can fly above it all and look down on the history of man. This song is so arbitrary that it has nothing preventing it from simulating the drifting sensation of sleep. Download and burn this to CD and play it to go to sleep. I guarantee success every time.

That 1920's feeling, well before my time. The question is, what time? All the questions are then provoked during a drink in some quaint 1920's cafe. Done years ago on Fostex 8-Track. |
