Episode 173-Lady Volcano

 
 
Hello listeners, this weeks tune is an upbeat Banjolele thing, it's about people, connection, stuff like that, havin' a good time, probably pretty straight forward....? Anyways, hopefully it's a fun listen and as always thanks for your ears and time.
 
Here's a drawing/video to go with the song:

Episode 172-All The Good Things

 

Hello listeners. This weeks tune is kind of a straight forward representation of one of my mental habits, which is to send my heart out on an imaginary piece of brave confession that never actually happens, at least not lately, bravery evades the many times cut down, also I'm doing absurdly well on my lonesome when I look at things in context and see how way down I've been before. Never the less, I still imagine, and write songs about it, probably loads of people do.
Anyways, it makes for a hopeful sounding little tune, hope you enjoy it. Thanks for your time.
Here's a video/drawing to go with it.

Episode 171-This Imaginary Person


 
 
Hello listeners. This weeks song was recorded crapily on my phone on Sunday night when I wrote it and had a bit of a lurgy coming on. At this point that lurgy has it's claws around my skull and is trying to push it out of my head through the front, (in less dramatic words I'm sick). I planned on re-recording this sounding better and with less mistakes but I don't have it in me this week, my body is useless and I've been in bed a lot, so this is the best I can do, I could've skipped a week, but I couldn't. Anyways, the tune is about being single and fairly ok with that, maybe even totally ok with that, and maybe about the haphazard thought processes that go into imagining being otherwise. Hope it's a nice listen for you despite the snot voice and fuzz. Thanks for your time and ears as always. Instead of a drawing this week I've just chucked a ton of old drawings in a slideshow over the song, again, the lurgy. Have a look:

Episode 170-Airplanes & Orphans


 
Hello listeners, this weeks tune is kinda abstract, I think I'll just leave off the explaining and let your own brain find a place for it. You're time and ears as always are hugely appreciated, and I hope you enjoy.
Here's a video/drawing to go with the tune:

Episode 169-Winter Astronaut

 
 
Hello listeners. This weeks tune is about reading science fiction in bed, in the daytime. Soon as it gets even a little cold that's what I immediately want to be doing. I wish I was doing it right now, in a few minutes, maybe I will. I also recently heard a Mercury Rev song about records and one of the verses was just the singer listing a bunch of bands he likes, so one of my verses, because I heard that song, is me listing some sci-fi authors I like, and a couple of super-super nerdy references to authors of a whole other kind that if you pick up make you as super-super nerdy as me, (which is great, if you can tell me what the last two folks on my author list wrote/write then chuck a comment below and I'll send you some kinda something, because that would impress me).
Hope you enjoy the tune anyways, thanks for your time and ears.
