Man, I should make that into a T-Shirt:

The Illegitimate Son of Convention.

Would you rather be listening to Arlo?

Man, I should make that into a T-Shirt:

The Illegitimate Son of Convention.

It's either this, or "In A Gadda Da Vida".

I have a difficult time writing songs that don't go into the double-digit minute mark.

It's been awhile but here is a new TISC track.  It's called "do you know?"

It is a little long, but please give it a listen anyway.  I think you might like it.  It has some BIP-themed lyrics.  Also the distortion/feedback freak-out at about 10:00 is dedicated to Cram.   

Here's the link:

Let me know what you think.

Hey, hey, hey, I've gotta new track.  It's called "glurp".  Not sure why, something I recorded a while ago that I just got around to mixing and encoding.  Some weird instrumental thing featuring slightly distorted dulcimer, drum-n-bass, some synth stuff, and some ambient noises.  Check it out.  www.myspace.com/theillegitimatesonofconvention

I'm really liking the texture of the sound in that, WHN. It's odd, but listenable.

Glurp is really the perfect name for it.

[AFK]

danke.

I'd give you a more in depth critique than that, but my musical analysis usually comes down to LIKE/DISLIKE.

See my review of St. Syns music for an example of what happens when I try harder than that...

[Jenne]

See now, Payne, I just TODAY made a suggestion you put that to recording or something because that was some FINE critiquing you did there.

Well, *I* enjoyed it, anyway.

just recorded a new song today: echoes

You know the drill, go to: www.myspace.com/theillegitimatesonofconvention

I spent the better part of 8 hours putting this one together.  It features dulcimer, melodica, a little trumpet, a little shaker action, and some spoken word.  Hope you like it.  Great listening for an autumn day.  In other words, it's a little dreary in places. 

ETA:  bleh, I had to re-load it because there was some weird clipping.  Should work now. 

[Cramulus]

I like it. Very relaxing. Good background music for working this morning.

[AFK]

A live performance.  Live from my office that is.  Enjoy.

Well, I had decided to shelve TISC while I worked on my kids music, but, I was plucking the ukelele the other day and I came up with this little line that has been stuck in my head ever since.  I had to record it to get it out of my system.  So, you get to enjoy this new tune which I call "fleeting whispers".  I did it in one take and other than the aforementioned line, the rest of it was composed in the moment.  The song consists mainly of ukelele but has a bit of harmonica at the end and, another bonus sound/noise.  Let me know what you think.  As always, go to www.myspace.com/theillegitimatesonofconvention  It will be the first track you hear. 

I also put "the flying donkey honky tonk" back up.  I had a lot of acoustic/mellow stuff on the site, I had to throw up something that had a bit more electricity to it.
