Something very special this time, here is a track I worked on with Sean Brennan from the FAWM site. I laid down some synth layers and he sent me a wonderful viola solo to go with it, very much has a raga feel to it. I love the deep tone of the viola, and Sean's performance is fantastic.

My 14th track of FAWM 2017 -- that means I finished! But, I still have one track in progress, which also should be a real treat.

Mystic's Longing (with Sean Brennan)

Forgotten in the Woods Again was born out of serendipitous circumstance and old friendships. The concept of the EP is emotive. It underscores the human dynamic and what could happen when people come together. This track is part of Forgotten In the Woods Again debut EP. It can be found on Bandcamp here: https://forgotteninthewoodsagain.bandcamp.com/releases

1 - You Fucking Suck At Driving

An experiment in SunVox.  Sounds created with one free running LFO, one very resonant filter, three pitch shifters, and three reverbs.  No samples, drum modules or sequencing used.  One continuous take with no overdubs.

I've been threatening to make another seasonal beverage anthem since @Pumpkin-Spice-Illuminatte, and as with most things I intend to do for years, this wouldn't have happened without my cherished friends dragging me across the finish line.

@Klopfenpop made the entire instrumental, playing upright bass and electric guitar and a wide variety of shakers for the richest, creamiest sleigh bell groove possible.

@MC-Lars joined me on vocals, which is SUCH a treat - we've collaborated like five or six times in the last 9 years, but it was always at his suggestion, because he is just bursting with great ideas and seems always ready to answer when inspiration calls.  I'm so happy to be hosting him!  HE IS A LITTLE SWEETHEART.

I'm not religious but I did grow up with family christmas as a ritual, and home made egg nog was part of it. Now I'm into super snobby organic glass bottle nog, but in between there was like two decades of just ok commercially manufactured stuff.  I didn't bother with it for a while, until I became a barista and encountered the good stuff as part of making high quality egg nog lattes.

In Canada, our food packaging has to be labeled bilingually, so sometimes you learn that French-speaking people have very different words for familiar products, and have somehow independently developed an entire culture of their own where that different word doesn't just clumsily translate the English original???  One of my favourites is "lait de poule."  Egg nog is known in French as "chicken milk."

Chicken milk.

Chicken milk.

Say who, say what?

Say chicken milk.
