to dream by nicolin

late night meeting with a street musician, near saint anne, in Montpellier. Lots of things to say, many songs in his bag, mostly sharing the same chords (!?). Nice feeling.

short trip by nicolin

Ever been in a french train station ? Recorded as I was coming back from playing with Edouard (whose amplified saxophone is included). NOISE 20 secs into the recording (that's for humannaire) - but it ends as smooth as usual (guitar outro). Bits of usual threatening, complaining, philosophing... in french (and english).

Overheated by ORthey

ORthey — Sun, 06 May 2007 14:52:15 -0800

I recently dislocated my shoulder, and assumed music was out of the picture for a month or two. But I was getting pissed off at not playing, and discovered if I capoed everything up really high and didn't play anything too fancy, my arm could handle short bursts of pickin'. So I made a simple song, part French and part English.

Oh mon cher by ORthey

ORthey — Fri, 23 Feb 2007 20:59:37 -0800

A short song in French complete with banjo and an electric chord organ, which thankfully only has a few keys so can be played by a chump like me.

Ein Nichtnicht by Blazecock Pileon

A track built upon Oswaldian traditions, cutting up German minimalist electronic samples with a bit of piano from the Romantic era.

A rough mix of a few languages and my dad's guitarone.
