Ode To Chav - including Mrs B Poetry

[Hilary]

I have real trouble with peaking when I'm recording my vox - but I'm not going to give you advice Mr B - it'd be like teaching my grandma to suck eggs (that's such a silly saying). Can't imagine you ever being in trouble with the Mrs!

Mr B, hats off to you and Mrs B! I loved this, wonderful stuff, your playing is top young man, but I really loved Mrs B's poetry, and quite curious about what the negotiations were like to get her to record!

wonderful!

Cool! I like the synth work, and the spoken lyrics are cool too. However, I think spoken lyrics work best when they're complimented by a sung chorus or other repeating section to provide a hook. For example, check out King Crimson's Thela Hun Ginjeet or oldrottenhead's It's a Ride. Just something to consider should you ever do something like this again.

Dunno if the under 2 minutes fest is still open!

Sorry. The admin team has decided that we're no longer going to be adding songs to the previous festivals. See the following post:

Hey top synth work and Mrs B tops it off with some cool words, liked the backround on the tune. On the first listen thought it was all about F1, then I find out it,s a tune about a busy junction, magic!!!

Almost missed this one, what a ride, very cool! I thought you did a great job getting the spoken word to sit right in the mix. I could picture the music being the intro to a video game.

Loved the poem, reminds me of my own youthful ignorance - Nothing like roasting the tires at a stop light trying to beat out someone in the next lane! Those days are over, rubber and gas are too expensive...

Anyway, excellent work to both of you!
