'The Vampires of Paris' - Greeny Monday Original

[Greeny]

Inspired by an excellent German vampire film set in Berlin ('We Are the Night'), I decided to put some vampires in Paris instead.

Written on guitar, then transposed into Garageband electric piano, regular piano, and organ parts as a base layer. I then added Fender Precision, vocals and Telecaster parts over the top.

Everything recorded and mixed on the MBR.

It has a kind of music hall / cockney knees-up thing going on

bloody magic that riff on the keys in reminiscent of jean genie at times, bloody tres bon. you should check out "what we do in the shadows" by the guys from flight of the conchords. best vampire movie ever.

I want to be a Vampire of Paris - as long as I can get chauffeured around in the back of a blacked out Mercedes. Hopefully a 1960's split windscreen as favoured by the baddies in James Bond. those deep leather seats..... And I imagine that the vampire ladies of Paris are the fittest in the world

This is a great track Tim.

My vampire recommendation would be Let the Right One In (the original Swedish).

Nice catchy song, Tim, very enjoyable.

Two Greeny Mondays in a row - can we infer a trend yet?

A right old toe tapper Tim ...try saying that with a mouthful of neck....

Oh yes, fab song Tim, and enjoyed the comments as well! I had no idea songcrafters had such a dark side... I have no favourite vampire movie but happy to assert Star Wars is a true story any day of the week! Brilliant fella, loved the vocals and the organs going on around the bass lines

really had my head bopping along to this one. lovely 70's retro rock feel. put my in mind of something like blue oyster cult. thoroughly enjoyed this - great stuff!!

Wow ,a lot has went into this one and I agree ,the bass lines are fantastic.
The vocal is crystal clear and the story is off the wall crazy.
Your a genius .
Magic.
