Hello Pretty Bird - Fly Ashtray

First upload of music created using Sibelius First to write scores. I don't really know how to write scores.

Actually, this is the second upload.  

Haircut double quartets plus two

Based on a true story. (I just like saying that)

S!T!O!I!N!K! It Seems That

This is what I remember us sounding like. It's not the title the song had when we recorded it. If I find out what that is, I'll let you know

S!T!O!I!N!K! Memory Of S!T!O!I!N!K!

Some music made by friends back in the pretty early days of home 4-track recording. 

S!T!O!I!N!K! View From A Float

First song on side 2 of cassette on Slab label, circa 1990ish probably. Azalea, pHed, Hyena, and Anzo

A Boy with Antlers - by S!T!O!I!N!K!

If Charley was an Osprey

Demo version of a song that Fly Ashtray recorded and put out on some release I think maybe? Found on an old cassette and slightly worked over for digitization. I kind of like it.

Congratulations on your Baptism - by Fly Ashtray

There's actually a H S-R soundcloud account, but since I accidentally made this one linked to Facebook I'm populating it with some tracks.  Hope you enjoy.

Fishing in the Pleisto-scene - by Hyena SpareRib

The Motrins were born at a Bronx house party, some time in the late 1980s or so, featuring then-current and/or future members of S!T!O!I!N!K!, Open Wide, the Nuprins, the Crate, and Fly Ashtray.

The Motrins - A Song About Sex (surefire hit)

Living in the basement studio at Rubulad, I spent hours pulling apart and looping and re-recording the basic tracks of Twelve Bot.  The cassette tapes have traveled with me lo these many years, and recently I have started going through them.  This is about 15 minutes worth from one of the tapes, folded over on itself a couple of times.

Fly Ashtray - "12-Bot" lost in Rubulad mix

Version of Twelve Bot on the Scraps compilation that accompanied Michael Galinsky's book of photographs.

Fly Ashtray: Aseebowahbay (1991)

My favorite drum break ever in a pop song.  Well, one of them.  So why did I do this to it?

Standing, Still - Am I?

This is my Facebook linked account.  If you are interested in what I'm doing you may also want to check out/follow Hyena Sparerib, my original Soundcloud account. This one will probably be for older stuff by Fly Ashtray and other 80s/90s/00s work, while HS will be new stuff.
