The world must be coming to an end. Is that the four horseman of the apocalypse at the door or the beginning of the rapture I can hear? Whatever it is, this has been the warmest, sunniest Easter holiday I can remember. In an effort to stave off falling to the flu germs The Missus keeps spraying about my general direction, I have been self-medicating with gardening duties, sitting the sun and cans of Kronenberg 1664. It appears to be working, though I would not recommend my unorthodox methodology to anyone else.
Awww crap, I accidentally started recording my new collection of songs at the weekend. I wasn’t intending on doing anymore proper recording for a long while (a cheer goes up from those poor cyberspace travellers who have encounted my crappy tunes) but it came quickly and it was too late to stop the creative impulse. And once I start one, you can bet another one will follow and another and another until 40 or so minutes of mind-numbing noodling is captured. I apologise in advance. The intention was to move away from instrumental and maybe do some proper songs like “Here Comes the Future” that I demoed recently.
This one is a short little tune, recorded quickly and not messed around with too much to keep its spontaneous energy. I spent more time trying to get the mixing right and I’ll probably keep tinkering with it until I am happy, but this is basically what you’ll hear. This is called “In the Sun” and it is inspired by the weekend of sitting in the sun…obvious, really. Enjoy!
