Here's a previously alluded to pair of star*pillow tracks. This is your summer cassingle for the '08. Happy slap your soul. Star*Pilow DOES heart cathy, he just has a funny way of showing it.

Track one is instrumental & opens with a Jane's Addiciton drum break. This is one of the first recordings I made using Cool Edit on my very first PC back in 96/97. I set up the drum loop & then jammed along with it on acoustic guitar & my brand spanking new Fender Bass VI. The main drum break is from Black Sabbath, Bill Ward, that drum solo thing on the album 'paranoid'. You know the one.

Track two, b-side wins again as a Motorhead drum break fills the speakers, followed by distorted Bass VI and some guitars. And vocals, sweet deathly doomly drooly vocalizations. Sing along, I dare ya. Cathy fans, I apologize.

THESE CHORDS ARE LIKE FAMILY TO ME

Ian C Stewart "These Chords are like Family to Me" MP3 From the 2003 made-to-be-made-not-made-to-be-heard album I Don't Know Why You Think I Won't Kill You .... this is the last song. This was the beginning of my dabbling with intentional randomness in songwriting. The lyrics for the whole album were compiled from albums by other artists that I enjoyed a lot, such as Adrian Belew's Twang Bar King , The Cure's Pornography , Voivod Nothingface , Mercyful Fate Melissa etc. I wrote out entire lines of their phrases and chopped them together. I think at the time I described it as 'sad psychedelic love songs about satan' overall, which is really being too generous. The music was also randomly chosen from tablature found on t'interwebs for favorite songs of mine. In general I played the chords in reverse order to the original songs but I can still kind of tell in a couple of places what the songs were. The titles were my own, obviously. Although I did cho

Daniel Prendiville - Burst Me Stitches feat Ian C Stewart on drums

portrait of the artists at a wedding, 1998 Daniel Prendiville "Burst Me Stitches" MP3 Burst Me Stitches is a song from Daniel Prendiville's forthcoming album, RAW MESH, which is due for release in the Autumn of 2008. The album will feature a remixed version of the song, so the first sentence in this paragraph was obviously a lie. The whole song was thrown together in a morning and then went through an extensive period of editing to get it into a serviceable condition. To paraphrase the old proverb, record in haste - edit at leisure. Poor ol' Daniel has been listening to too much Fall of late... Plus it makes use of the first of my 'let's jam, I'll play drums' files. So, well done that man.
