Hi Folks. This is a short one. Before coming to BIAB world I utilized MIDI for most of my tunes, so this was a good exercise. Initial arrangement is still done on BIAB including a couple of RTs. All comments are welcomed and thank you for giving this time. TV Show Brave and confident radio prophets A salesman with voice of a squeaky shopping cart Ohh no I don't need your magic paper crown I am a voodoo doll with needle sticking out from my heart You...are a victim of concessions. Private life on camera tear-milking TV show. Raging riots, liquid diets, failed experiments, forest fires. Silent walls of a closed asylum New forms of art No, no, no I don't need your invitation I am a voodoo doll with needle sticking out from my heart You...are a victim of obsessions Private life on camera, inducing laughter TV show. Tech stuff ------- Me: Arrangement, vocals mix, midi programming. BIAB: RT:1154:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Reggae Ev16 100 PopAmericanEv^1-a:SS 1/2 BB, b:Snare Half BB Synths of Halion & Kontakt. Recorded in Cakewalk.

Now that's my kind of groove, really 80s, really Billy Idol ;-)
Highly enjoyable!

What a cool groove Misha. Super vocal and just loved the drums. Loved how they bounced around the monitors. Really cool production, mix and master. Well done

Funky groove. Great stereo sound from my headphones - especially the drums. Fun vocals, as always. Very cool!

Misha,
Now that's one funky vibe you have going on with this one . . . the mix sounds great to me--crisp and vibrant. Love your BGVs on this; perfectly layered in. Cool stuff!
All my best to you,
Deej

Reggae dystopia. Excellent words, melody & music. Brief but effective for that.

"Brave and confident radio prophets A salesman with voice of a squeaky shopping cart" Man, you are one of my favorite lyricist, Misha. I could've quoted the whole song, but the opening lines grab the listeners so well, and the whole story needs to be repeated several times and each one the meaning can be somewhat different. Brilliant. Your vocals are so expressive and the mix is always filled with so many interesting twists and additions. Everything in there begs for replay. Music moguls like that.

Very creative indeed with a slight reggae feel. Much enjoyable.

You and RKC are the poets of the forum, always delivering great, thought-provoking lyrics. Yeah, this was short but it made its point. Well done.

Misha what a super groove you have going on here.
Outstanding stereo panning!
Super vocal and lyrics.
Great band - outstanding rhythm section - brilliant work!
Loved it.

Hi Misha
My only quibble is that it is, as you say, a short one. Was enjoying it very much and would have been quite happy for it to keep going. Great groove and mix. While I don't normally like to play favourites, I'm compelled to say you're my favourite lyricist on this forum. Your wordplay is never less than inventive and frequently surprising. Great work.
Regards, Leon

Ray said it well: “reggae dystopia.”  Your description of reality tv is downright elegant, Misha. All is super: lyric, band, vocals, mix. It has a really big sound but with sparse instrumentation. How you do that is remarkable. And also remarkable is how you can write lyrics for which there is NEVER. A. SINGLE. WEAK. LINE! Way cool! J&B

Misha, I could dance to that... because the lyrics feed the mind as the feet bounce. Very skilful production and, of course, the Rustyspoon vibe to captivate. Cool, very cool!
