Talk to me...

Hey Ben! I really dig your music, and glad I caught 'Hey, Listen' on the podcast. The podcast lives at 5090podcast.blogspot.com. Kiwafruit and T.C. Elliott have been putting together some great content. Definitely check it out.

Hi Ben, I do not know if you are up for collabs (and if yes, if this also includes lyrics), however, I`d love to invite you to have a (short) look at some of my songtexts in the hope of an eventual collab if you find anything you could use...
kind regards

I really like your songs even though I have yet to comment on them. Sorry about that! I've been busy CRUCIO-ING YOU! So yeah... I did. http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/songs/9453

Hi, If you want someone to do any shouty punk type things, I'll do that.

Comment by Ben Levinson
Yeah man, I'd love to collaborate on something loud and punkish! Let me know if you have any ideas.

Thanks for the kind words. Tried to pull off a metal album during fawm and the "metal" riffs have been following me since. :)
I'll try to keep them coming.

Hi Ben, thanks for your comment on my first track 'Two Worlds'. The guitar, piano, violin parts are kind of synths in a way, but they use real recordings/samples of the instruments, and I just try to play them convincingly. Thanks again, glad you liked it!
