Recording and mixing for the next Strange Sounds Orchestra project
is
now complete.
This long distance collaboration with Mark Brend
will hopefully see the
light of day later this year. Were hoping to get
ome interest from
Static Caravan Records who released the last
SSO material.

Post-FAWM burnout has kept me from writing and recording for a
while.
I have however, acquired a rather dinky Guild F20 acoustic
guitar from
Ebay.
It's in great condition and is a joy to play.

I decided to participate in FAWM
again this year and
managed to notch
up 15 tunes - a mix of instrumentals and
songs. You can listen to them
all on my FAWM
page.

I pipped 1st spot in the October KVR contest with Bad
Blood. The theme
was ROCK!

After lurking around the Song
Fight website for a while I finally entered
my first weekly
contest.
I chalked up a joint 2nd place, so I'm quite
chuffed with that.
You can find the song "Scary Thing" on my Listen
page.

For February's KVR Monthly Contest, Me109 recorded a great
cover
version of The Fall in spanish. Listen to it HERE

This year I decided to enter into the FAWM songwriting challenge.
What's FAWM I hear you ask?

I'm collaborating again with Mark Brend, reviving the Strange
Sounds Orchestra.
We previously worked together producing an EP in
2006.
This new project is themed around famous literary figures
and
involves
music and spoken word.
We hope to have a Strange Sounds Orchestra website up and
running sometime later this year.
Dec 2007
I have a new addition to my collection of instruments....
A 1965 Framus "Television"
5/118-54.
It's in fantastic condition and
has a great action and wonderful
vintage sound.
It even has the original case.
It's got a string dampener on the bridge and
that great tremelo arm.
Haven't quite worked out what the 5 small switches on the top
scratchplate do yet though.
To hear it in action, listen to Fink,
a short demo track I knocked up.
