Brown Word & Big Whine - This is pandemonium, like a Hieronymus Bosch painting put to music. You don’t have time to take in one part and establish a feel before it moves on. And another track with a slurry mix. Too many sounds all competing in the same frequency range. It’s like you’re cramming in ...

- I'm still having trouble what the lyrics are getting at. Seems like a fever dream, which matches the musical tone, but I think it's going above my head. I kind of had trouble with focusing what the lyrics are about and I wanted something vague. It's sort of the controlled chaos of life, lots of p...

Brown Word is in. I used my dynamics this time. I think. Does the song lead somewhere? I don't know. The void is certainly involved.

Screaming Into The Void - Brown Word and the Big Whine So many unexamined souls Butterfly nets full of bullet holes I want this I want that Yes I accept So many unwashed drifting minds Time capsules full of thrift store finds I'll take this I'll take that No I won't refuse Now is the time on Brown W...

Brown Word and the Big Whine - Those doubled vocals in the chorus are super girl punk and I love it. I like the background vocals at the end too. My only complaint is that the lead guitar makes it a little hard for me to focus on your vocals in the verse. Thanks for the review! How I struggled migh...

Welcome! It’s great to hear horns in Song Fight.

Eyes in the Dark reviews I was looking forward to and listening for the spooky sounds and wasn't disappointed. This is also the fight of awesome synth tones and execution - coincidence? I think not. Phlebia - Good start with Melvins-y bass sound. Good juxtaposition of vocals that sound hot and a tou...

How It Comes Apart - Brown Word and the Big Whine V1: Painting with a broad brush Faking every stroke Obscuring with the shadows Mirrors in the smoke Head in the sand, ass in the breeze Ch: Piece by piece That's how it comes apart Pulling at the strings let it all unravel Little by little Can't you ...

Brown Word in - sans playing instrument how it wasn't meant to be played - I totally forgot and by the time I remembered, everything was in its place.

Thanks again JB for having me on the series. I thought of this when I was working on two songs this weekend (next title and non-Song Fight) and how my writing process for these was both the same and different than Smoke. All started with some kernel of an idea - Smoke explained in video, Comes Apart...

I just heard about this yesterday and it sounds awesome. One of my go-to writing techniques for brass pieces is to first just sing the parts - this would be a game changer for that alone. Analogously, I like the DAW I use, Bitwig, a LOT, because it is intuitive and you aren't caught in the DAW, and ...

Brown Word and the Big Whine : The mix sounds really good. I don't know them well, and maybe it is just a spooky female voice, but does this sound at all like Souxie and the Banshees? I hear a lot of cool elements in this arrangement, but maybe the levels could change a bit more to feature them? Th...

Whoa! Great job all!

In order of listen: Sweeney Toad - The delivery could use a little pep, perhaps some sass even. I appreciate the Halloween theme of (teabagging) werewolves. Spooky music. Pigfamer Jr. - I like this right away. The doubled vox sound good and the hook is a good one. You get a great guitar tone - go wa...

When I play something regularly it forms a geography in my mind. I don’t smoke but when I used to I had now and then found myself suddenly not knowing where I was in the song or how to get back to it. It would happen when I get stoned and started thinking too consciously about what I was doing. Did ...

Yes, it has certainly happened to me. I’ve played in a band for years, learning repertoire by memory, comeback a year later and have forgotten, though usually I’ll remember the part, or at least be tipped off by the other players’ parts, the muscle memory has been lost and I’ll find myself struggling.

Brown Word in with the spooky stuff. Or maybe it's just regular Brown Word? Was trying to channel WreckdoM's Looking Glass from Nur Ein VIII but ended up with something different (though perhaps of the same creepy universe).

Eyes in the Dark - Brown Word and the Big Whine We settled into no man's land Walked a line that wasn't there Earth turned to sand and sun to shade Weight of the curse upon us laid Eyes in the dark out beyond the back gate Fingerless touch in the dead of the night Eyes in the dark and a voice on the...

I got that Kee Bass mentioned above and I LOVE IT. It's going everywhere now. LABS has made its appearance in a couple of submissions and side pieces so far. Thanks for the recommendations!

Hooray owl!

In with my take on some cheesy pop, though it probably doesn't sound like pop at all, it probably sounds like BW+TBW since that's what I do

Edit: all challenges were accepted.

The Smoke Is Rolling In - Brown Word and the Big Whine Oh my heart is on fire My love is burning down This burning inferno My fire tornado Oh the smoke is rolling in It's getting in my eyes The smoke is rolling in It's clouding up my mind Well I can't sleep at night Thinking about you now The flames...
