Another way to put your ears around my craftings and stuff



But... you can also listen to a few recommended albums (yes, I still believe in the concept "album")I turn up now and then, old and new:
Rumor (debut), Eric Clapton (his last is a JJ Cale pastiche, his obsession), Bruce Cockburn (his last), Janelle Momnae (her last: eccentric soul), Randy Newman, Robert Wyatt, John Scofield, Dory Previn, Ben Folds, Seal, Redbone, Dr.John, Brian wilson, Paul Simon, Geoff Muldaur, Al Kooper, Jerry Riopelle, Association, Ricky Lee Jones, Peter Wolf, Ben Sidran, Kip Hanrahan, Elvis Costello, Marcos Valle....if you have the TIME....listen

Orson Nietdus

Heey!!! FREE-how trendy-music here. Look around,...yeah, there you are...scroll down, at the right.

And no, the picture doesn't show a young Orson W. Call him... Orson Nietes (dutch for not)!
Busy reading those biographies of actor Simon Callow (actor from "Four Weddings..") Seems Orson did the whole rollercoasterride in a fast lane...Better not start at the TOP.

Thanks to the guys from Totally Fuzzy

Here's wahat they said:

"Next to the regular music industry as most of us know it, there is of course a parallel circuit that's been around probably since the 60s, if not earlier. One could call it a cottage music industry, where people with talent that are not interested in all the hype and nonsense that usually goes along with being in showbusiness decide to do their own thing on their own terms. Some of them still make it to a larger audience, others just enjoy flying below the radar.
With today's technology anybody can record, mix and even master a professional sounding album in their own bedroom, IF they have the talent. Since VST instruments have become popular you can even run an almost authentic Moog or ARP synth on your own PC, not to mention all the guitar Amp and Effects simulations and professional mixing and mastering audio processing plugins like WAVES. I won't even go into the PRO Mac recording stuff.

Here's an interesting collection I found on soundcloud. Home made, and all DIY, but definitely worth a listen. You'll be fascinated, surprised, at times grinning and at other times frowning. If you like Terry Callier and John Martyn and the likes give it a spin".
Thanks Fuzzy....
...Soundcloud is fantastic!

Album 15 worktitle: ??????

???? I've got alot of worktitles, like:

Hilarious Saggitarius
Vomitus Mximus
Amusement For the Gifted Thunderpoopers
Sugar Sheik And His Cheesey Kitchen Sink
Forehead Monk With Leaky Nose Hair
Boost, Don't Knock!
Fuddy Duddy Forefront complex
Mother Of A Freaking Forehead Complex
Snorbeard's Cheesy Sugar Tunes

Any suggestions are welcome...




Lot of songs to choose from....
Ok. I'm busy. Melodies floating around, guitars and keys connecting with my brains and fingertips. Already 25 songs. Edgier (rock elements) than before, more contrasts in moods (humor versus seriousness). I feel I've got the energy to push these tunes in the right gear. So drive...in overdrive
I also work more with Pro-Tools, it's very flexible and I combine that with organic sounds...from the kitchen sink.
