Based on my ratings I was expecting much harsher reviews. So thank you for being gentle and saying some nice things.

Four and a half days late to the rodeo... and I copied the title as "First Rodeo" so a totally different song.

Also, anyone writing this from the perspective of being down to their last radial?
Almost. It's threatening to be a half-hour dystopian rock opera. Heavy use of metaphor and scene selection should limit it... to less than ten minutes.

Re: SF Live! Online Edition 2022

Now to track down a backing band. I really want to do it live, one take. Unfortunately, most of my friends work 2+ jobs, o...

Re: SpinTunes 19 Round 2 'Anachronism' Challenge, reviews and comments

Ok. I read the liner notes and lyrics. It was amusing to see where I hit the mark, and where I missed it completely. Liner notes feel like cheating, like a guy trying to explain why his joke should have been funny. Or an abstract artist trying to explain the serious metaphor underlying her swirls an...

Hi! I don't normally do reviews, but since I like getting them... I tried to draw little mental cartoons of how and what the song made me feel. Melody Klein I'm in awe of your sound design, and that you can work so fast. Your melody tends to be flat, with some small jumps but then return to the main...
