The Basics

This is what a song sounds like when you write and record it all in 30 minutes.

Every Part of Me

The original mix of "What Do You See In Me?" from The Basics' 2009 album 'Keep Your Friends Close'. Recorded at Soundpark in Melbourne, and mixed at Abbey Road Studios, this mix features the original vocal recorded in Melbourne (the final mix had a re-recorded vocal done at AR), and a distinctly Celtic flavour with fiddle in several sections played by Michael McClintock.

What Do You See In Me? (Celtic-flayva, different vocal)

Tunaomba Saidia (Abbey Road Version) performed by The Basics, recorded by Peter Cobbin and mixed by Sam Okell at Abbey Road Studios, London, UK.

Tunaomba Saidia (Benga Version) performed by The Basics & the John Master Benga Band, led by Commando (lead guitar), recorded and mixed by John Master at John Master Studios, Nairobi, Kenya.

Voices of The Basics (Tim Heath, Kris Schroeder & Wally de Backer http://www.thebasics.com.au/) brutally ripped from Dan Wilkinson’s podcast interview “Hot and Delicious: Rocks the Planet Ep 46” https://t.co/Z0cJQbe6xE and turned into a freestyle ramble of uplifting stupidity.

Never Going to Forget About You

An example track from my forthcoming album of piano improvisations and creations.

All those eyes silhouette, 
Faintly in your glow

Are you breaking me down?

Both those hands separate, 
Holding me in your glow

Are you breaking me down?

Glow

Straight out country duet sung with myself for logistical reasons. If anyone wants to have a go at singing it with me sometime im pretty open to that.
The turtle is just something i painted that i thought you might like. If you want you can imagine its the turtle that is singing. 
Fun.
Not for the turtle though.
