Here’s a mix of the album’s opening track, entitled “Banana Bag”

I want to be in that number… When The Saints

Now with vocals

Ohio. (Down beside where the waters flow…)

My little sci-fi song about a not too distant future when jolting memories at will will let us remember small details of our past, even share our past. A near final mix from our soon to be done 4th Danger Painters record. Enjoy

Rough mix with vocals

Now with vocals, mix nearly final. (Chain Rainy Day)

William x Harvey is the bass player for Danger Painters. Last year was his first time with us (Michael Barron and Bob Boilen) at the last minute last year Bill turned in a song at the last minute. It turned into one of my favorite pieces on the record and very different from the music Michael and I make together but perfect counterpoint. Now he’s done it again, turning in a very naked midi file. I put a piano to that file, wacked it out with some effects that added lovely swimming harmonics and an slightly off kilter drum pattern.

I’m told Mr. Harvey has some words for the tune. I’m eager to hear them, though today he’s playing bass with the Urban Verbs in NYC.

Chain Rainy Day, Clubbed.

Bob worked some of his sonic voodoo on this… give it another listen.

…Still working on lyrics

We get nothing… just like Robinson Crusoe when Friday said, “Monday I’m gonna leave”

It’ll be a whole new shipwreck!

Thanks to Susan Mumford, whose lyrics inspired this little ditty….
