County Down by Astro Zombie

Astro Zombie — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 11:18:27 -0800

Astro Zombie — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 15:02:23 -0800

flapjax at midnite — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 07:41:10 -0800

Filtery drone from my JUNO 60 meets ukulele playing exactly four notes. No verse, no chorus, no changes, no development... just does what it does for 2 minutes and 43 seconds, then stops. It's the soundtrack for a video here.

Brain in a Jar by The Great Big Mulp

The Great Big Mulp — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 22:03:27 -0800

I've been working on this song for the past few months. This is the result of my trying to write something sad. Unfortunately, my recording computer died last week, so some bits final mix came out sounding a little more sloppy than intended as there were a couple things I wanted to re-record. Also, I'm terrible at writing second verses.

Facebook Profile by Astro Zombie

Astro Zombie — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 21:20:00 -0800

Although not strictly part of this month's challenge, I would like to point out that this song, which deals with how our social media lives on after we die, is heavily inspired by "Waiting for My Man."
