MusicChords/LyricsInfoStoreYouTubeSubscribeJack and CokeWhenever my cousin Danny and I are working on projects together in the evening, we will often have a Jack Daniels and coke each to keep our spirits up. It’s our favourite alcoholic beverage and we discovered not too long ago that you can buy it pre-mixed in a can. We have two cans in the fridge right now, in fact.This is relevant because today I went into the studio to attempt recording the first song of my new album, Epigrams And Interludes. Tom wasn’t there: I was the producer. I thought it’d be interesting to mix the sound up a bit after two albums and an EP with Tom, and I was trying to work stuff out with a few other people, but everyone was taking their time and I get quite proactive quite quickly when people don’t get things done so I just booked the studio and decided I was gonna do it myself.My first discovery was made last night as I prepared to pick the song that I’d be working on: I didn’t like any of them enough. Even though I now have sixteen songs in varying states of readiness for the new CD, none of them were ready enough to be fixed in one night.So I wrote a brand new song right there, called Jack and Coke.We finished the production today, but I’m not getting the file through until tomorrow so I have no real clue how good it is. I’m burning to play it back with fresh ears. I think it’s good – I know I was definitely happy with it when I left the studio – but leaving a thing alone is always a great way to be more objective about it. So there’s a chance it may end up on the album, a whole song, produced by me. And I booked four more sessions at the studio, so things should start to pick up at a hopeful pace. It’d be cool if I can get the whole album done myself.Anyway, just thought I’d mark the occasion with a blog post. Possible first song for my third album is in the can.xEDIT:

That house what I bought

I’m living with my mum at the moment because solicitors seem to enjoy making you wait as long as possible before you get anything done ever. I never understood those jokes that grown-ups make at the expense of lawyers until now.Epigrams And Interludes

Nobody can ever remember the name of this. It’s the title of my third album. An epigram is a brief, clever and usually memorable statement. An interlude is something in between two things (in this case, two epigrams) – so the album will hopefully work out as a bunch of catchy worthwhile things with some other bits in the middle. It’s also the name of the middle chapter of Friedrich Nietzsche’s book Beyond Good And Evil. (Some people say the chapter is called ‘Maxims And Interludes’ but I haven’t found a consensus anywhere on that.) Anyway, it’s going very slowly because I’m really agonising over every bit of these songs in a way you probably won’t notice. If you listen to the whole thing and say ‘why did that take so long?’ I’ll have done my job LOL but seriously I wrote Holding On in about an hour and my new song Ships In The Night has taken about a week so far with no end in sight, although I did add a second verse today so that’s progress. I’ll aim to get at least something finished by the end of this year, but whether that’s the whole album or just one track I have no clue yet, so that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll hear it anytime soon.Sitcom with Charlie

Charlie has occasionally been tweeting about a sitcom we’re writing together. It’s gonna be at least a year before that’s finished, so here is a brief teaser: the main character reminds me of a Buffy character, OOOH chew on that internetAcross The Sea

A song I wrote ages ago with help from Tom Milsom which is OUT TODAY!Go head to iTunes and download it, unless you’re one of those “I hate iTunes” people, in which case I have provided some helpful alternatives:a) Get someone on iTunes to buy it for you b) Download iTunes, buy the song and delete iTunes c) GROW UPxOh, and there is one more thing … ™{ 33 comments }Across The PreviewClick here to listen to Across The Sea a day early :)x{ Comments on this entry are closed }Vaguely Live Radio 3.1 Your browser does not support the audio element. /**/ Podcast Powered By Podbean(It’s HTML5, so it’ll play on iOS devices :D)x{ Comments on this entry are closed }A new songI played a song today for my friend Myles during his online 24-hour fundraising project Stickaid. The song is called Catsong and I wrote it about this cunt of a kitten I met when I was in LA that wouldn’t leave me alone even though I hated it. Here’s the video:All thoughts welcome :) Stickaid is raising money all day and night for UNICEF, so if you enjoyed the song preview, I will obviously encourage you to consider chucking a bit of cash their way – click here to do that and then come back to read the rest of this post.Actually I don’t have much else to say – I think I’m pretty much done with Ships In The Night, which I’m happy about, and I’m finally releasing my song Across The Sea next week on iTunes – look at the artwork!SO happy with it

MY EP IS ON VINYL OH FUCKSome of you may remember a while back answering some questions in a survey I posted about vinyls; specifically how many of you owned a record player, shared one, would buy vinyls for one etc etc. This product is the result of that survey :)DFTBA have never done vinyl before, so this is uncharted territory. It might just be awful and we’ll never sell vinyl again. But if it goes alright, I’ll be able to sell Parrot Stories or other such things on vinyl (along with, presumably, other DFTBA artists).SO: this is a 12″ of my acoustic EP, Soup Sessions. It’s limited edition – there will only ever be a thousand copies, that’s a promise – it’s 9 dollars and it comes with an instant digital download of the EP whyl u wate.Link is here, again it’s nine dollars. I’m sorry I haven’t put out any new music, so if you’re not interested in the vinyled Soup, I can promise you that I will have that fabled song Across The Sea out on iTunes by this time next month :) And if you don’t care about either of those things, obviously I’ll continue making you regular free content in the manner to which you have become accustomed ← Previous Entries Listen to all my music for free -click here!
