LA RISA QUE YA NO ESTA

Siempre es asi,vas bajando
A pudrirte con los gusanos 
Esas cosas hoy no son en vano 
El sueño es un sueño amargo...

Ese reproche volvio a tu lugar
Y lo cambia hasta temblar 
Cabalga en la noche lunática 
La risa que ya no está 

La lluvia llegó para mojarnos 
Espero que no nos parta un rayo 
Las noches son cómo un milagro 
Nos llevarán sin pedir algo a cambio..

Ese reproche volvio a tu lugar 
Y lo cambia hasta temblar 
Cabalga en la noche lunática 
La risa que ya no está

LA RISA QUE YA NO ESTA

Singer audition goes terribly wrong. Parody song from 10 years ago.
I haven't touched the original shitty mix much, I wanted it to faithfully reflect the tragedy of the situation. :D
Me: vocals, additional voices, guitar, fretless bass, keys, electric drums

Lyrics:
I've been pissing in the wind for a while
But I always do it with a smile
I catch a cold eight times a year
But darling oh no no no no no
Don't you shred a tear

There's a small bird
Nestles in my beard
But that's cool, when I am bored
I imagine I'm a bard

I've been missing kissing but
In need of oral stimulus
I can always chew on a cigarette butt


It's a crime

another example in my 'isolated tracks' series, this is a short snippet from 'The Get Down' by the Eclectic Collective, featuring just the clavinet chorus along with Josh's slick bass riff and some nifty percussion from Ken.  

here's the full song with the detailed description:
(likely a different sounding mix than you've heard before)  😎

The Get Down (ISOLATED clavinet with rhythm section)

And you know this
The second he comes along
You’ll be on bended knees
Grab a rope and string the classical guitar.

Row and row your boat
On random seas
Make a friend of the dependencies
If you’re rolling, would you roll one for me, too?

Come alone.

All the losers
Get to learn for free
That the hubris of a victory
Comes complete
With everything you think it will.

Go console her
With your empathy
They’ve arrived at this prophecy
And it means the price is going…

Come alone.

Singing like a diva
Signalling appeasement
Smoking all the reefer
As if you didn’t mean it
Saying what you want 
Is what you need and
Living used to be
So much cheaper.
If I get a head start
I’m always out of reach and
Speaking of which
This carrot’s on a leash,
The city’s under siege,
And a nectarine’s a peach
That flunked out of school
Got drunk, fooled around
And joined the marine corps.
If you would believe us
The ignorant will teach us
The morals and the perils 
And the colours of dishevelled 
Little devilish creatures.
Don’t ignore us – 
it’s a sign of weakness,
Smiling, sweaty as preachers 
misquoting Nietzsche.

Come Alone
