this was inspired by some of the works of Ken Nordine from the "Word Jazz" series.

specifically the reading "Truth Mute". (wicked kewl reading)

aside from uttering a short phrase in a song i did sometime ago, this is all me, my lyrics.

talk about stepping outside of the box.

---------<Shorter Days>----------

the days

the days are getting shorter

not just the days of the season

not just my days

your days

their days as well

they seem so much

shorter then yesterday

is it just me?

is it for you?

is it the same for them as well

long gone are the days

that aren't so short

for the days are getting shorter
-----------------------------------------

hope you enjoy and thanks for listening

That's really different, but powerful & timely. Very effective.

Minimalistic  ambient, imo... Sounds great, but needs very focused listening via headphones. Well done, again mr2kewl!

Wow, evil ambient! Very spooky and atmospheric. This should be in a David Lynch movie. Love the lyrics, love the feel. I've had this looping for a while and it's very effective.

How did you do the sounds?

Cheers,

Evil Ambient seems to be a fun genre to get into. And it sums this up pretty well... Maybe not evil, but definitely sinister.

Nice piece.

Actually perfect... From the lyrics, to the spoken word delivery, to the eerie atmosphere, set by the perfect sound track.
It's a very creative piece.

Well Done

thank you for taking the time to listen and for your comments.

this was a particularly fulfilling project for me to do. mostly, because i wrote the words and mustered up the courage to speak them myself.

i was pleased with the results of the music done on my low tech YammerJammer PSR-413e and my Cry Baby wah.

nothing that would give anybody a G.A.S. attack. LOL

This seems more "completed" than some of your other offerings - Is it a development, or just a branch into something new.  Whatever! well done I like it.
