Is this new material?

Once again, you demonstrate true professionalism. The singing is top notch. I wish I could do that. I'm really impressed!

And... it must be really nice to have a brother on drums...

One of my favorite songs from you now I think. I like the dynamics in the transitions bro. And from a drummer standpoint, the 2 and 4 tambourine and the vibra-slap are too cool. I wish I was as good as yer bro, bro.


Yes this tune touched me more than dynamics and a vibra-slap.......................I wanna say fukkin cool!!!

I will say it again........fukkin cool. :D

Dude! Loved it!

It has a little bit of everything! Little bit o' ballad, little bit o' acoustic,
little bit o' METAL, and a little bit o' SHREIKIN' and SHREDDIN'! :headbang:

WE'RE NOT WORTHY! ***bows down***

Seriously, I liked it Bro. Awesome git work. Well done.

Publish it NOW.

**salutes**

Geez, I'm all a-blush! You guys are all too kind to your old Owl. Thanks for making it special for me once again. :-)

No sorry needed, L. I hear it too :) I like some Manson stuff.

It is Elf. I just wish I had more access to him or that we could just leave together on a warm-up tour for a sweet prog metal band.
2 and 4 tambourine and the vibra-slap are too cool
I had too much fun with the vibra-slap. Eventually I even irritated myself :-D
Keep crankin' them out!
Ok, t. With all of this inspiring positivity, I just may crank something out over this weekend. :)
I do really like the quirky sounds.
Finding weird noises and having actual children that I know in the recording made it lots of fun for me. A few of the lyrics are funny and made my brother snarf a shot of single-malt into the space between the open hi-hats.

"The house is full of flies
Your mouth is full of lies
Five across the eyes might make you see it my way" :-D
It has a little bit of everything!
That's exactly what I was going for. I find it tough to make it not sound too roller-coasterish when applying the kitchen sink. :-)

Again, you've all made my day and I thank you very much!

I felt like recording today. The result was something for the next Bourne movie (The Bourne Infinitum, or whatever they'll be calling it). They'll never use it, but that's what it reminded me of, anyway. More soundtrack music from the ElfDude.

Movie music! :-D

Now I have to see this movie when it comes out, you know! LOL Then I will be able to see if they got the soundtrack right. ;-)

I have put my latest project aside for a minute (Plagerissimo) to write some tentative lyrics and record some vocals for Infinitum. Great song! Bah to limiting it to a movie theme. I immediately heard a "voice" singing to me when I heard it. I'll post as soon as I can. Hope you don't mind, Efness?

No, I don't mind. Would you like me to make you a mix without the guitar and let you do it better?

No! The guitar is perfect. I just want to add some vocals and a few other little ideas.

All joking aside, it's really cool! Inspired me to write, so thank you!

Infinitum

Continue forever, without limit
Non-termination et cetera
Soldier on to Infinity
Infinitum

The mind is more than a brain
The soul is less than a grain of wheat in a field of refrain

How to combine all that aligns with our path? With the past? With the future?
We all will see

Infinity
Infinitum.
