Thank you so much for listening and commenting. Without feedback, it is like singing into the void.

Enjoying the modal song experiments. I have a couple of my own (nothing posted yet though). And thanks for the various comments you've been dropping on me lately.

Modey modes! Still trying to parse the songs, but what modes are you using?

Hi Jeff,

No 50/90 songs this year. There is simply not the time, but I am writing/recording music - lots of it as well as working frantically on the soundtrack of a feature film too.

It's all paid work, which is great, but I have no time to squeeze any 50/90 action in (apart from stopping by occasionally).

Glad you like the album. I assume you are referring to the Dark Fiber album. My solo album is coming along, although delayed a little with all these other projects, but I hope will still be on course for a Sept 1st release.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hiya. Thanks for the feedback on the podcast :)
Hope the jukebox sorts itself out soon so I can find new things...

Hiya Jeff :) Thanks for all your lovely feedback on A Good Day to Die, She Says He Says and The Letter! Ah yes, the things I could do with a driving blues band - lol, I think a number of my songs would benefit from that :) Unfortunately I don't play guitar or keyboards myself but both Wyatt and I are quite keen for other collaborators to hop on board with A Good Day to Die so hopefully someone else will be able to add to the mix that way. In the meantime I'll give your suggestion of doubling the uke a go and see how that sounds. Thanks again! :)

Jeff, thank you for the extensive comment. I had totally missed the other meaning of "scotch." I should say that I had intended it! :)

Thanks for the fine comments. Yep, my inner Ian Curtis is not ready to crawl out yet. But he's growing.

hi jeff, thanks for the comment on Wishful Thinking. well, so far it has received ambivalent responses live, probably because i have to hammer it out to be heard, and it sounds crap unless i play it soft and soulful like on this recording.

Thanks for your comment on Rag and Bone Man. I actually roughed out a completely different version, possibly more along the lines you were thinking, but Donna liked the posted one better. There's a link to it on the song page if you're interested (it's pretty rough).

Yeah, why is it that abusing the equipment is usually the way to go? I can't afford to abuse the equipment! :) Thanks for the listen and the comment, Jeff!

Thanks for the comment. I have weird taste and find it tough to describe. One cool thing about FAWM 50/90, though: those who are nice enough to notice my stuff generally write music themselves that match my taste pretty well. No exception here. I've been enjoy sampling mp3 on your blog. Great work!
