I can definitely say you have your own musical identity, your own style. And it's very distinct. I can listen to an unknown song made by you and say "wait, this is an oldrottenhead song". Just a question, do you do all the vocals? And another, how much time does it takes you to write songs like this? Thanks for sharing this.  |

its all me. i did the music in a day it shows eh? it lay around for a while, then i got back to it on sunday and having some snippets of words and a general theme in mind i got to work on the lyrics, they came pretty fast as i usually write/sing stream of thought ie the first thing that comes into my head then rewrite and rewrite till i have a complete lyric, then sing it all in one go. so lead vocal and backing vocal done in an hour or so. the song went straight in at number 9 on the soundclick britpop chart. see here and look for the bunkbeds. http://www.soundclick.com/genres/charts.cfm?genre=Alternative&subgenreid=30 |

lyrics usually come last, i usually mess about to get a sound going then lay a backing track and then go for the vocals, i have maybe a title or subject matter in my head but i just let go and see what comes out. then i listen and fine tune the lyrics and redo it. then add backing vocals and mibbes some more guitar or keyboard depending how happy i am with the song, then its onto the next song. |

This turned out very well, is this all on the br or did you use any external equipment?
Sounds like you have the same process for song writing/recording as I do, save for the fact that I am terrible at every completing more then half of what I start.

i think the drums where done on the pc, then recorded to tracks 1 and 2 in a stereo mix via the line in input, then the rest was done on the micro br. i too have lots of unfinished stuff, but every now and again inspiration pays me a visit. you can hear my other efforts at www.soundclick.com/thebunkbeds |

Nice one ORH, quite an Andy Summers-ish feel to the guitars there.
Cheers,
