Hey! Still (slowly) writing little bits about tracks. Here is track 3 from the main The Four Hard Edges Of War: I didn’t do it on purpose (except maybe subconsciously), but I can’t help but notice the beat is sort of like – well – a train chugging along. Chigga chigga chigga chigga – CHOO …

Here’s the second track on The Four Hard Edges Of War – The Far View. What can I say here? As I listen I’m trying to remember how to play that piano part. It’s amazing how much you can forget. Oh there’s two piano parts. I do that a lot. Like a duet – only …
HEY! For the first time in like…what? 10 years? I’m writing these little blog posts again! Linking to TUNEZ, sayin some STUFF. 🙂 Ok…I’m gonna start in on The Four Hard Edges Of War, which is the last Third Option album, made mostly at CCRMA at Stanford. It’s a collaboration between me and Andre de …
Monkey Rhymes, by Third Option Quick song. I could barely get the link and the lyrics and the buy button pasted by the time it was over! Yes this is the monkey rhymes one I talked of before that was so berated by some cat on Broadjam.com – here it is in all it’s glory! …
You Can Never Stop Us, by Third Option Oh wow I almost forgot about this one. The thing that I like about this one, actually, is how there’s this group of dudes (multiple version of me of course) saying “you can never stop us” real fast and for most of the time, it just sounds …
Run, by Third Option Pretty sure I improv’d this whole piece of poem here to tape. I remember a few days later I did an improv based on this – or – wait – it could be – yes I think it is – I think it’s reversed. What really happened was I did an …
Here’s Monkey See, by Third Option Hmm. Maybe I should have made other songs called “monkey do” and…oh that’s the whole phrase. Some of this is improv’d too, but then I guess I wrote it down and then recorded it – or something. monkey monkey monkey see monkey do monkey make money in the back …
Well here, again, is the first “track” of The Monkey Set, “Monkeys Belong In The Jungle Baby”. It’s really just the build up to the first poem thing/second track. Here’s the “lyrics”, or the “poem” for this part. Which isn’t really lyrics or a poem. It’s just some improv I did on the mic. But …
This is the “hidden” track on Cult Of Nice. It’s not really hidden on the CD, per se. It’s just track 12 – but there’s a 13 second delay before it starts, and it’s not listed on the liner notes on the CD. But everywhere digital, it’s just there. I did this one all by …
