I think that the vote button on mine might have an intermittent glitch , maybe that's why there are a few votes short

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1503616389' post='3359787'] Well it looks like two people to me..! [/quote] It looks more like ET than a camel , maybe we've all missed the correct interpretation of this one

Cheers guys , I shall try and get there

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1503597615' post='3359587'] (G[i]asp..! ) [/i]I've just noticed that there are [i]two [/i]people on that camel..! Will I have to re-write my whole month's work..? Darn these old eyes..! [/quote] I think you'll find that it is not actually two persons , it is merely an oddly loaded camel , the dude has to deliver it to a local address I believe !!

Fringe virgin alert I see the gig is free , how does that work ? I realise I don't have to pay any coin for it but I've seen other gigs for free , will this mean I have to queue for an hour and a half to get into them. HID and lurksalittle have s long list of shows that they want to go to , and some we have already booked , but some of the comedy stuff I am up for fall into the 'free' category , TIGHTARSE I hear you cry , but no, I would rather buy a ticket than queue all day !!

Loads of people dress up as pirates , wave pirate flags and have pirates parties , there used to be a thing called dress up as a pirate day. Pirates weren't very nice , they were murderous barbarian thieves as I recall , but they have gone , the flag is seen as a humorous artifact , and when used on hats and fancy dress it matters not. But the confederate flag is still a symbol of racists, it is current, it is not historical , it reminds us of history mainly by its ongoing use as a racist banner . Les is on the money and saw this coming , fair play

I guessed it wasn't as simple as it looked I did clock the address, it's all part of the show dude

Great Vid Chris , how long did that take to put together ?

Ours went off on a cowbell solo in the middle of Dakota ,soooo funny we damn near wetting ourselves

[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1503339982' post='3357414'] Don't forget to take your cowbell too ! [/quote] . The bands drummer has got the collective cowbell , and takes great pride in throwing random sequences through a different number each gig , though it had got a bit tired of late , it used to crack us all up

Ive had a good listen through now , top work so far , though I think mine is a bit quiet , but that is probably in the listeners favour

[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1503253244' post='3356726'] Maybe I'm just a bit afraid of the learning curve on my new DAW? I'm sure Blue Oyster Cult would have some sage advice on the matter... [/quote] Oh No , there goes Tokyo , go go Godzilla ? seems a touch random to me TBH I'll get my coat

Ok then, for my sins I am in, there is a schpeil and the lyrics on the soundcloud , and when I get my new credit card through I will pay the subs on there , it seems only fair https://soundcloud.com/lurksalot/es-a-giza-master enjoy

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1502873261' post='3354013'] ..., but a lone traveller crossing the scene on his camel..! D'oh..! [/quote] Good try Dad, but I think you'll find that actually, he's a Giza who has a specific part to play in the scene, and my story will tell exactly what he is doing there, granted your heads will drop as you realise this involves a vocal , however, to add some cheese , they are properly lurksalotesque in both content and delivery. still trying to get Lurksalittle to add some tone to the BV's , but she is a touch wary of compromising any prospective university applications by association with my work , bummer!

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1502576349' post='3352324'] Wanna borrow my Doom array? [/quote] An array of overly Cheesy Doom , now that certainly sounds ominous

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1502569714' post='3352283'] I went for what I think is quite an appropriate feel to match this month's pic. [/quote] I normally try and do 'appropriate' but I think I will be way wide of that mark this time , mine is taking shape but , well just ....but , even I think the lyrics are a bit cheesy on this one

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1501813017' post='3347528'] Here's mine, too, equally inspired by the beast's progression ... [url="https://soundcloud.com/dad3353/inexorable-what-goes-up-must-come-down"]Inexorable (What goes up must come down...) ...[/url] Something of a tone poem, really, or atmospheric piece, rather than EDM. I was looking to create a sense of both the immediate and yet the eternal; the ephemera and the timeless. A touch of human in an insentient landscape, an incongruous passage past the immobile monuments. There's a couple of 'jokes' in there, too, in both the form (a pyramid waveform...) and the repeated rising and falling of both the 'melody' and the key. Incidentally, the scale used is not authentic Egyptian, despite its familiarity; it's really the Hungarian scale, which better serves my purposes, being symmetrical (the twelve semi-tones are spaced 1-3-1-2-1-3-1...), as is a pyramid..! Kontakt 'World Percussion' for the darbukas (playing in 7/4 and 4/4 time...), a Ruby acoustic bass, Kontakt Pearl piano, a snatch of Desert Song and some home-generated samples of oud snippets, all sanded down with some slightly complex desert winds, made up of three instances of the Wind module by Xoxos (Sounds Of Nature...). Thanks for listening, if you already have; if you're about to, enjoy. [/quote] It is always my policy not to listen to other entries till mine is done , I'll have to try not to read them now as well as I had exactly the same idea as that ,word for word Yeah , right

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1501918124' post='3348155'] I often seem to be able to write music that put's people to sleep. I don't know if that's a good thing or not! [/quote] What, hello , did I miss something

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1501666467' post='3346322'] Definitely needs a bit of Doom then! [/quote] Especially if those are mountains of mordor

[quote name='fingers211' timestamp='1501596195' post='3345767'] I see a chap, going through the desert on a camel with no name,.... [/quote] He's a Giza !

Well done gents , great acceptance speech Dad , another great crop of entries . Have we got to get ready for a triptych this month then

[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1501538005' post='3345430'] OMG! It's a three way tie. I'm so excited, I just can't hide it! [/quote] I went to see how I could possibly have caught up to the leaders and realised ..........I hadn't

[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1501538005' post='3345430'] OMG! It's a three way tie. I'm so excited, I just can't hide it! [/quote] Are you about to lose control ? I think you'll like it

Played st my local on Friday night , but it was strangely flat, we got some great compliments from a few. But overall we just didn't engage them , odd. The singer was tired and probably didn't really try hard enough with any banter , though the song delivery was top notch. Thinking about it, we did rattle through the sets, put an extra number in near the death , stretched out a couple of endings and still finished 10 mins early
