excellent. hooray

Post by **blombluss** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 2:29 am

I found both of these songs pleasing, and that pleases me.

Post by **vom** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:21 am

and I three am pleased by the all of you

Post by **vom** » Fri Feb 11, 2022 6:51 pm

I've been working on a bunch of collaborations this week that are hopefully all nearing completion, here's the first one which I am VERY happy with!

"Round Robin": https://fawm.org/songs/130452/

CandyDarling · Post by **CandyDarling** » Sat Feb 12, 2022 9:41 am

Hooray I liked that one, and one of your solo songs.

Also I commented on both of them as I reactivated my FAWM account.

Also: https://fawm.org/songs/130729/

Post by **vom** » Sat Feb 12, 2022 9:47 pm

re: the above - hooray!

also I did one of those exquisite corpse songs again, first time in a few years. I put quite a bit of effort into making sure my final segment followed on neatly from the previous one only to find that none of the other segments flow smoothly at all. OH WELL.

Second track:

The Panic Behind The Smile Of The Famous Short Guy

CandyDarling · Post by **CandyDarling** » Sun Feb 13, 2022 9:42 am

And here's a third, done in the early hours, mirroring my general mood

Media Barrage

Post by **blombluss** » Sun Feb 13, 2022 3:22 pm

'Round Robin' - good stuff!

'We're Sorry' - really digs eet, and it reminds me a tad of Salako (not John Salako!).

'Wait For Me' - Jazzytastic! Yay!

'Media Barrage' - very nice indeed, and it has some of that 80s-leftfield-artists-getting-into-using-samplers, vibe about it, which does it for me!

Post by **vom** » Sun Feb 13, 2022 6:29 pm

Another collaboration with my friend Paul (previously featured on RoseWater), more of me on this one though. I love it!

"Russian Doll": https://fawm.org/songs/131281/

Thank you, that was what I was going for! I actually copied a well-known Cabaret Voltaire LP cover for the Youtube thumbnail / track image.

Ooh! That synth at 1m 41s in! Ooh!

I, like Putin, am most pleased with 'Russian Doll'! Huzzah!

Good stuff! *thumbs up* It reminds me a bit of Japan in places, also.

"Where You Belong": https://fawm.org/songs/134204/

Post by **dng** » Mon Feb 21, 2022 7:55 pm

hooray

Post by **dng** » Mon Feb 21, 2022 7:57 pm

also thats really lovely

Post by **blombluss** » Tue Feb 22, 2022 2:09 am

The Shivering Sea reminds me of Metronomy, so hurrah!

Exercise Bike with it's slightly glitchy vocals is jolly good, and Where You Belong is moving and contains a lovely tinkly guitar riff that I'd be happy to go on a two week holiday with!

Post by **vom** » Tue Feb 22, 2022 8:12 pm

danke homfre!

Post by **vom** » Tue Feb 22, 2022 8:13 pm

here's the first of several four-track tape songs. this one might be the most "me", because I'm singing on it, but also it's not that much "me" because I'm doing a low-voice rock swaggery thing

https://fawm.org/songs/134677/

it was really fun

Post by **dng** » Tue Feb 22, 2022 9:15 pm

how excellent

Post by **blombluss** » Wed Feb 23, 2022 2:24 am

I digs that different vocal style, Vom! It really does work well. Choon, too!

Post by **vom** » Wed Feb 23, 2022 6:51 am

Cheers!

Post by **vom** » Wed Feb 23, 2022 2:51 pm

here's another four-track song, I recorded my part for this one in 2019 but it has been sat in somebody else's house for three years! it's very odd. I think I'm actually on synth bass but I don't full remember

https://fawm.org/songs/134921/

Post by **vom** » Wed Feb 23, 2022 4:39 pm

and here's a song where I stealthily wrote lyrics at work earlier, offered it up to the FAWM people and now have a new song finished before I've even finished the working day!

https://fawm.org/songs/134905/

Post by **dng** » Wed Feb 23, 2022 7:54 pm

hooray for fawm

Suspended in the Fearful Dark

It reminds me a bit of Black Box Recorder, thus I'm fan of choone!

Good stuff!
