Bassplayer pretending to be a composer.
Let's give another go for FAWM number 2 for me.
Barely touched any instrument in whole year, so I don't expect much of improvement from last year.
Probably gonna go again with bass first and the rest will follow.
Challenge for myself is this year to wrote some lyrics and try to sing them too.
I suck at both, and it's been over 15 years since I last tried to do that, but I'm gonna at least try.
Maybe put a little bit poison on the songs with bass synth too, another device I really can't play but let's see what happens.
Still have no picks, so must do everything on finger style :)
Just having fun here, nothing serious.

Interesting…I see now I had already listened and commented on The World’s Most Simplest Man with lyrics. Hadn’t realized that when I listened and commented last night. The title drew me in. What a name for a sing, with or without lyrics.
Kiitän! Oon 10 FAWMia vältellyt collabbeja, mutta never say never, pidetään mielessä!
Wow!~ You a man of steel! Sorry you've had such a rough run. I hope the year ahead hold plenty of magic to rebalance that scale. Oh and definately, definately sing in future. If that song was the odd one where you sang, and I clicked on it at random and heard you, I'm glad. I want to really encourage you to keep that up.! You've a strong interesting voice. If I don't see you sooner, see you July for 5090~ Hugs.
Your patience has (hopefully) been rewarded. Check your gmail. :)
Hahaha! Patience, Grasshopper. Actually, I'm working on it right now! I *might* actually have something to email to you by the end of the day, if my limited supply of energy doesn't run out before then.
Thanks! I'll download your brilliant track "SlowMotion" and see what I might be able to add to it. :) Though it might require some patience on your part... Now that the flurry of February is over, my songwriting might progress in "slow motion" compared to last month!
I was just imagining you waiting for the bass. I really wanted the drums to bring you in, get into a real hypno groove
The contrast of the vocal and a deep bass--this will be cool!! We can even name the song Quicksand.
Well your bass work is hypnotic--maybe we should collab next FAWM?!
Thank you so much for your kind comment on "Know Nothing"! It made me smile. You've had a rocking FAWM, Seppo!
Hey Seppo, you sound like a really nice person, would be cool to have lunch altogether if we didn't live in three such distant parts of the world!!
Thanks for your comment about me and mattoxic
I can imagine. Especially when you have lots if noise on your head that has to be turned into songs or lyrics abd you just can't. I'm glad you're well.
Thanks for your comment on The Ribbon Song :) Really appreciate it.
Thx for the listen and comment. Yeah, songwriter circles are some of the main places I get to play original material.
Good imagination and great bass!!
Thank you! Im glad you enjoyed. Your lyrics are fun to start a day lol. Your voice fits into this arrangement fun track :)
I've mailed you the brasses
Couldn't nail the organ sorry...
Can you believe it, man, I don't know what the time signature is !!
Yesterday I have been too busy to work on your song. But I haven't forgot!
Thanks for listening to "At your command". These weird rhythms just happened. The outro Is septulets (piano, toms) and triplets (guitar) over 5/4. Completely insane but just worked.
I've downloaded your draft and try to jam. If it leads to somewhere, I send you a demo via mail. I don't have a real hammond, but a good B3 clone. Funny how people make me play keyboard after 6 months of acoustic guitar madness lol
If I find some time tomorrow I could give it a try. Is the demo available for download? I only need BPM and key.
Thanks for listening and the feedback sepo, appreciated.
I've sent you a mail!
That's completely understandable. I'll update the song info and write a mail with the details asap.
I'm glad you enjoyed Dust. And thanks for the offer. Oh yes, your bass is well-appreciated and would rock! We may start after FAWM, cause I'm too busy now and we still haven't a guitarist. Is that ok for you?
Thanks for your nice comments on my singing! To be honest, I did 20+ takes on two days and autotuned a lot. The quality of my 10€ microphone is not good enough to work with. It's okay for sketching, but when all instruments are recorded properly you spot the difference. Maybe if I practise singing for 5-10 years I'll invest into good recording equiment and give it a go. But this or next year - no way! But I may write more punk rock, cause it's fun!
I love working with the octaver, it so powerful.
Thank you! A real bassline does a lot to a song. We need more bassists!
Happy FAWMing 2022!! Guess we'll see what happens...
How can I be sure?
Back at ya seppo, really looking forward to hearing how 2021 has shaped your music.
Welcome back! It's my second year too. :)
Yeah, the SoundCloud app is worse. That's why I enabled mail notifications when somebody writes a message. Otherwise I'll never know. But I'm not mad at you, I was just chit-chatting.
Great to see you back...your stuff is interesting and I looking forward to it this FAWM.
Welcome back! Looking forward to your music!
