your guess is as good as mine.

basically i came up with a little riff on the juno of 4 notes that where really discordant and annoying so i played them ad nauseum in repetitus, then challenged myself to do something with it. got up to the v7 tracks on my mbr for this one. what a complete abuse of my precious spare time. oh well time for the pub.

find the harmony
rapt in discord
hide the imagery
in the words
deconstruct the joke
it isn't funny anymore
explain the punchline
it all becomes a bore
a tug of war
lines drawn in the sand
no quarter given
no show of hands

Pretty cool! I'm sure I've heard those four notes before but I can't think where. They're a bit like the theme from The Twilight Zone but I don't think that's what I was thinking of. Maybe I'm thinking of a Rush song but I don't know which one. Actually, it just occurred to me that it could be a Yes song that I'm thinking of.

That's pretty bluddy impressive for just making it up as you go along based on four notes. Nice one :)

Your inner Peter Gabriel coming out a few times in the vocal there.

64G, the notes reminded me of one of the Clint Eastwood Spaghetti Westerns - the one with the watch, For A Few Dollars More?

Awesome! This is a sound track for a SciFi movie about intergalactic vampires.

Ominous.

I like it.

Well done, Jim!

You have the ability every now and again to come up with a song that I know I would physically s**t myself  to ,if I was lying in the dark with my piepod on.
All in all a good contender for the next stephen king movie ,its like youve put john lydon and alex harvey in a blender and added a hint of j m jarre. ;D but nice all the same,,,,brawwwwwwww.
