Amateur

February 2, 2007

Here’s an awesome video my friend Mark sent over. It’s like audio-visual sampling, just great. And the guy actually can’t play the drums or piano.

It’s titled “Amateur” and it’s by Lasse Gjertsen.

MySpace or YouTube?

January 29, 2007

The thing with MySpace is that Tom is nice and all, but you can only post four songs. And there’s just so many accounts that one can open and maintain. Maybe it’s just my pro-YouTube sentiment of late, but that’s where YouTube beats MySpace..as far as I can tell, I can pretty much post away as much as I want on that thing. At least so I’m hoping in the interests of this blog.

Which brings me to the following. “To Hold On To” is a song we had posted on projet M.U.’s myspace page, until we needed to upload a newer track from Salomé..and it had to go.

And we kind of forgot about the song for a while, but started playing with it recently to try and record a new version. So here’s a video from a rehearsal today. Sorry for that weird note there in the end.

Nikita U & the Intercourse

Very very soon, Nikita U will have the studio version of “Forgetango” posted on his myspace site. The song has somewhat become a crowd favourite at the few shows that we’ve played, and the studio version is sounding awesome, so hopefully y’all will enjoy. If anyone liked Monia, from the swallow song, well, she does back vocals on “Forgetango”.

Enough talk though. Here’s us rehearsing the song a few months ago:
