Dave... Synth-tastic! Nice channeling of Thomas Dolby and David Bryne influences. Lately, your vocal tracks have revealed an ever-increasing escalation of passion and energy. Must be on a roll, huh  ??? Good for us User's Forum listeners!

Hmmmm....Janice first listened on her AirPods, we are now listening on our Mac and BiaB brought us all together. Not bad for science  Knowing zero about oingo whomevergo we say Frank Zappa meets David Bowie! If science created an entry to our heads you could charge admission for but a few minutes. An oft used term but EPIC comes to mind immediately. Huge production that we could not envision putting together. Rock(?) on! J&B
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

Thanks Herb! I am actually emailing you from a dark room somewhere man. I appear to be in hand cuffs. But I can still type. I can hear some old guy saying, wait, he's saying: "C'mon man! Follow the science! Get on the team!" Do you think I'll be ok???

Technique, talent and Your inner Shigeki can do some scary good stuff my man. Great use of the synth voice and BIAB Fx's. This landed right in the middle of my BIAB wheelhouse.
Enjoyed,
Charlie

Hi David,
A very original song! But in a way typically you.
You sing it like some kind of mental meltdown is occurring. That's the most funny part (here). I think Nectar 2 must have had big problems handling your vocals...
You always have these surprising angles in your choice of songs. How you come to this kind of songs is a riddle to me. I think it's that Shigeki you talked about. I haven't any idea what it is, but if it does this to you, it's great! I like that creativity very much!
At this moment the word 'Science' is burned in my brains. Will cost me hours to get rid of it. Probably that was your intention, wasn't it? But it also means that the song is good. As it is. At least I enjoyed it a lot!
Hans

David,
You really channeled some 80's stuff here and it came out exceptionally good! I heard lot's of little bits that reminded me a several artists/songs from that era! I was waiting for the McCartney "Coming Up" chorus lol! You sure did push the boundaries with the program here and it paid off! I am always amazed at your creativity! Take care, Torrey
