<description>Title is short for &quot;What The Folk?!?&quot;

erm... yes, that best explains it I think.

another experiment.

my favorite parts are 2:35 and 5:30.

I had loads of fun playing this one. It incorporates guitar, bass, violin, banjo, accordion, keys, and a small pill container filled with rice.</description>

<description>Well... this song was conceived in the small room above my parents' garage. I thought of it while I was showering. That's pretty much the whole story...

So I just deleted it because there was this huge gap around the middle. (I kind of didn't listen to it before uploading the first time). so now the gap is gone.... 

I'd appreciate it if people would leave some feedback, and... like... do something... if they like it.

Any comments, concerns, complaints... or really anything that has to do with anything is welcome.

Thanks

<title>All That I Can Be</title>
<link>http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/2199.html</link>
<description>Well Here it is. The first track off my piano EP. (well actually the second, this is just the first I've uploaded)

The vocals were double tracked and recorded in my friend's flat using some pretty basic gear. The piano was recorded in a 300 year old chapel on a grand piano. Which had an extremely loud pedal but it's not too noticable thankfully.

My good friend Bella put double bass in a few of the tracks which sounds beautiful.

VERSE 1

I know all the things that people say I hear them everyday.
And I know all the things you like and dislike in me.
But I’m not ready for this kind of conversation where you break down,
What I am and what i wish that I could be.

I’m this passive little angel underneath it all,
But come across as something harder to digest, I guess.
When i’m older and i’m wiser I will know my weaker side,
But for now I’m young and bold enough with nothing here to hide.

CHORUS:

And I,
Had always been the same one there.
And I,
Am not the one who’s changed round here 

X2

Didn’t you notice that?

VERSE 2

I’m aware of all remarks in absence of my presence,
I’m well informed of what i should and shouldn’t say.
And I have trouble with my foot and what I put it in,
I am walking I am moving but I only seem to stay.

I am sure I’ll never change i’ll probably always stay the same,
There’s nothing left I haven’t lost before that I can’t lose again.
So i’ll continue on my way before I go I’d like to say,
I’m only one man. With two hands. I’m all that I can be.

CHORUS:

OUTRO:

I’m only one man with two hands I’m all that I can be.
(Two hands I am all I can be)

I’m only one man with two hands I’m all that I can be.
(Two hands I am all I can be)

I’m only one man with two hands I’m all that I can be.
(Two hands I am all I can be)

<title>Talk to me softly</title>
<link>http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/4808.html</link>
<description>Mladen Konecky - Talk to me softly
----------------------------------

Hey, I'm sure you know how the story goes,
But here it goes again, one more time,
Same old words you hear, again and again,
But baby what I say, I really mean...

So hey, don't you just stand, give me your hand,
and let's just fly together...

Talk to me softly, whisper in my ear,
Use the words of love that I wanna hear,
Tell me that you love me 'couse u know I love you to,
All that I want is to be with you...

Hey, I know, it sounds cheap, yet another guy,
That wan'ts to turn you on, and leave behind,
But I realized, if there's no love,
There's not really much to tell,
And I wanna talk to you forever...

So hey, don't you just stand, give me your hand,
and let's just fly together...

Talk to me softly, whisper in my ear,
Use the words of love that I wanna hear,
Tell me that you love me 'couse u know I love you to,
All that I want is to be with you...</description>

<title>Frights</title>
<link>http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/2154.html</link>
<description>Again another U-Tow song  :dead: .., a song about love, life and.. frights

Not totally became as I imagined when writing this one.
On one side I'm happy about the beautiful things the band added, on the other hand, it gets saturating in a way(to me), I can't point out whats wrong or missing or...?

I think it might be in the distorted guitar parts which are to much of the same....................i don't know, maybe you do?
(I also mixed Hugo's rhythm-distortion too loud a bit, but that hasn't anything to do with this I guess :P)

In the beginning(god spoke..) I added a third guitar part (the low '7' chords!), its slightly off here and there, but i liked the idea so i couldn't miss it anymore and left it for another time(which still has to come) to rerecord.

I played the clean intro, which is actually the way I played the whole song acoustic, (but left out some notes to break it), and the new third part, but Hugo did the great slide part and the solo!
(In the photoalbum you'll find a pic of the band, beneath it I introduced the band if your interested..)

ps. lyrics were originally mine, but ofcourse Lawrence has rewritten and added some parts( he always does :P)

well, if you don't like the song, at least you have something to read :P

                 FRIGHTS            (lyrics Marco den Bakker/Lawrence Payne)        
    

If I could tell you all about the cold…
&amp; the scary sensation of growing old…alone…

If I could tell you all about the lies…
&amp; the awkward experience of being tied…
…to a human being, gradually becoming strange…
&amp; stranger…until I found out it was me…

…All this Time…All those Frights…
Stubborn me…still wanting my own way, again…

Now I just told you all about my frights…
&amp;why I deny…oh, being denied!?…

Still wanting it revealed, right now…
Well, where’s the reason &amp; where is the Truth?…
Why is this existence failing badly?…
…Oh, why?…

Why not believe there wasn’t anything between us?…
Why not believe nothing’s true?…
Why not believe there wasn’t anything between us?…
…Not a thing?…Is that your Truth?…

SOLO

Still wanting it revealed, right now…
Well, where’s the reason &amp; where is the Truth?…
Why is this existence failing?…
..Please, tell me why?…

You tried to believe there wasn’t anything between us…
You tried to believe no one loved you…
You tried to believe there wasn’t anything between us…
…Not a thing?…that love could do…do for you...</description>

<description>Well I asked for vocals and I got them . Also in the process turned an average song into something really freaking good. The vocal stylings,synths,added rhythm guitar and outro solo are all Mr.Xeno. 
To truly appreciate his contributions to this I suggest you take a listen to OldMan v2.0. That track and a lyric sheet turned into what you here. Thanks again Puppet lookin forward to doing another.


Ps. Sit back,relax,close your eyes and crank it to 11!</description>

<description>I just got back from a gig and started re-doing a bunch of things on this song. i took as much of the advice i could and put it in the mix. New vocal fx and eq, new pad sound with xtra strings. i also improved the piano solo to make it more catchy and melodic. I gated the guitar and dried it up a bit.
Still a fade at the end though. Sorry bout that. hope to figure something out. Hope you let me know what you think. Thanks for listening.</description>

<title>What it is</title>
<link>http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/1930.html</link>
<description>I recorded this live with my band but can't seem to find that version which is just as well since the guy we had subbing on bass sucked! we've played this a lot live and people seem to like it. I play the solo on guitar nowadays but that's about the only change. The drummer pretty much stays with the feel of the track on this but he's much funkier. I recorded this an ADAT last year but I didn't have a mixer so all the fx are direct through the units and I bounced a couple of tracks.</description>

<description>I recorded this live with my band but can't seem to find that version which is just as well since the guy we had subbing on bass sucked! we've played this a lot live and people seem to like it. I play the solo on guitar nowadays but that's about the only change. The drummer pretty much stays with the feel of the track on this but he's much funkier. I recorded this an ADAT last year but I didn't have a mixer so all the fx are direct through the units and I bounced a couple of tracks.</description>
