Apologies

Written god knows when. 2007, I think.  Played in a lot of the Malakoff live sets, and finally recorded and mixed by Dave Morgan in 2010.

Ruth Tidmarsh on bass, Dave on drums, Martin Bradford-Gago on electric guitar and backing vox, Emma on acoustic guitar and vocal.

Need To Talk

Chris Moorhead wrote all the music to this.  He gave it to me in 2011 and said, "come up with some lyrics and a vocal line." Here's what we did.  It's not finished, and probably won't be.

It's about an astronaut.

All Alone the Moon

Title track off the Malakoff EP.  I sing and play guitars, Tom Heightman plays bass and cello, Dave Morgan hits the cymbals and the bass drum

At Sea

Rough and raw recording of a song I wrote about about cars on the Scilly Isles

St Mary's Traffic Watch

While I work on a little quartet of songs about birds, here's one I prepared earlier.  Doesn't include birds, just guys who fly in through bedroom windows

Code

A song for my Masters portfolio project on birds.  Dave Morgan sorted it all out mix wise for me, because he's the best.  

Songs about Birds 1. Mute Swan

Short piece of dawn chorus taken from the Isles of Scilly, May 2012.  

This was an experiment as part of a birdsong project to see whether or not I could join in.

Help needed with the Birdsong ID!

Songs about Birds IV. Dawn Chorus

Getting a bit experimental now...this is more of an attempt to score a soundscape using spoken word and various guitar lines.  

This is set at the Lizard.  Phase 1 is a walk along the coast path, searching for choughs.  Phase 2 is imagined staring out across stubble fields, still searching.  Phase 3 explores the cave, where the choughs nest.

Dave Morgan helped mix it all nice and smooth for me.

Songs about Birds III. Chough

Song 2 /4 on my birdsong project: this one's about noticing the world around you. 

And what a bugger this one was to write.
