Yowza! Back for number 3 February.

The picture of my rolling studio? A Basque shepherd wagon. My grandfather's name was Ayaïs, and I honor him here.

I'm a bi-coastal guy with daughters on both U.S. coasts, and it gets hard to steer sometimes, but I'mma gonna try.

The Worm, a musical, is still cooking with help from unlikely places. Don't know what this Feb will bring, but I'm always up for collabs.

Yes, the best things just appear - easily and without burden! "Burden" is such a good old word that is very similar to the German Bürde in pronunciation and meaning - I wasn't aware of it before your collab!

Thank you for all your lovely comments and for listening to my/our music!

Dude, I'm gonna go ahead and do a collab with you here, the birdbath one. All recorded and ready to go. Hope you don't mind.

Hey, do you mind if I make a spoken word thing out of "2:22"??? It'll be called "Pooping In The Birdbath (What Is Wrong With You??)" It'll be about how I have to clean out our heated birdbath all the time. I'm sure I can get it done by tomorrow....

Thanks for the listen and insightful comments on my tracks. I will keep an eye out for yours.

dumb question: how do I download that 222 thing. Maybe you email it to me? freshspotlessyouth gmail

[avatar]

just emailed you :-)

[avatar]

Yes, of course! I send you the file and i am very curious what you add!

[avatar]

Right! 👍😃

I remember that there's a thread about it... https://write.fawm.org/forums/3064?highlight=photos Drop the url into the Liner Notes or Lyrics sections. Hope this helps. If not, let me know!

You need a host; I use Postimages. Then just drop the url it gives you wherever you want it when you're adding a New Song. 😀

I am not surprised that you are a fan of Saunders. I've come to him only recently - his prose style really bends my head. His book on writing is excellent, I've slowly been working my way through it - it's jammed pack with ideas to meditate on!

Thank you for your comment! DCD are extremely versatile and they Influenced my style a lot. Every album is different. They are worth the exploration.

We literally texted each other in the same minute! Didn‘t read your note on my soundboard :-)

[avatar]

No worries, got the mails but won‘t be until next week now because I‘m on vacation. But I‘ll work on them asap!

[avatar]

Hey, I didn't receive an email unfortunately, now that I have more time to work on collabs. Could you send it again? Did you send it to [email protected] ? The other one doesn't seem to work and I have to change that on my profile.

Wow, thank you for coming back to listen to the second version of my song! Very glad, you liked it!!! I love syncopation and the intertwining of instruments and I find it very interesting that you think this song tells a story, having so few words. Thank you for that feedback :-)!!!

Thanx for the comment. No, my voice is not that slow; I slowed it down by 11%, and pitch shifted my voice down by 11%, as well. I owe you an email.

[avatar]

Yes!!! Let‘s do it :) happy FAWM!

[avatar]

Thank you for your comment on "Hey, It's From Me." I've been accused of wandering before, and I've come to accept it as my style. ;)

[avatar]

Hi! Thanks for the greeting -- hope you're having a good FAWM so far!

[avatar]

Glad to see you back here and looking forward to further progress on the musical!

Hair? What hair?

Thanks for your comment about the cymbals and lavender lips. Lavender lips was on my idea sheet, so it was great to see that you liked that part :)

Hi Dan! The daffodils are just one sign of the winterthieves! Sunshine and longer days are another. One big sign of them is FAWM and every song or lyrics which gets to life here! They have a king: it‘s the King of hares! Who is sleeping during winter!

Thanks for listening and commenting! 🙏
