This is a first demo of a song I'm working on... I just thought I'd share it in it's raw form and if I get a nice finished version and a few work-in-progress versions I'll no doubt share them too, it's warts and all, me sat in my living room with my budgies (maybe audible in the background) playing through the chords with the rough lyrics I've written, all badly sung & in an odd tone of voice for me.  It's a song about our blame-shifting culture of people suing for little reason, obviously.

You're Not To Blame

This is a rehearsal recording of a tune we used to do in the first incarnation of Perceived as Equals back when the line up was Sco, Craig, Mike R, Runny & myself, I believe vocals are shared between Scott & Runny, this is warts & all & I'll remove it if it offends any of the guys.

Resigned

This is one of 2 remixes made for the tracks on Perceived As Equals' debut EP "All Reason Departs" the remix is a total re-imagining of Choke as we played it making it sound more like a Prodigy song (which is nice!).

Choke(Goldlust mix)

My first recording on which I play all guitars, bass & vocals.  Drums , engineering, production, arrangement suggestions, by my occasional partner in crime and all round awesome musician Paul Wood.

Get Off The Phone

This is pretty much the final version of a bass solo thing I concocted ahead of the Bateman Reunion in 2016, I was in quite a melancholic state of mind thinking about it being the last time we would probably have a chance to play together so it came out of my bass.  I've named it after Tyler our dear departed mad blue budgie girl who died shortly before Christmas leaving a big hole in our lives.

Tyler Blues

This is a demo of Peer Pressure, a song I've been writing, honing & tweaking for some time, enjoy, this is not the final form for this song!

Peer Pressure Demo

This is the first recording of my new band, we have yet to settle on a name, the band on this recording consisted of myself on all vocals, Jonty on Bass, Tony on Guitar, and the recording engineer Tia on V-Drums.
