lurksalot Posted February 23 Posted February 23 (edited) A tie in January between @Leonard Smalls and @upside downer with 2 cracking tunes, the first off the blocks to claim the honour of picture choice, was, the latter. A picture that might inspire a slow leisurely pace, or does it... "Hope this gives our marvellous minstrels plenty of ideas. The light at the end of the tunnel. Just about to exit the south side of Crick Tunnel on our narrowboat." Have a listen to the entries and choose your favourite 3 1 Lurksalot A metaphorical tunnel? 2 @Leonard Smalls Knowing that narrowboating and drum'n'bass go together like Chas'n'Dave I've done some jazzy fretless noodling. Roni Size eat yer heart out! 😁😎🤘 3 @MoonBassAlpha I'm trying to capture the feeling of a slow, peaceful trip along a canal. Things happen slowly and I've deliberately kept it repetitive and relatively uneventful. 4 @Jean-Luc Pickguard My recording is called 'To The Light' As posted above, this is a poem I wrote based on the pic read over a repeated chord sequence. 5 @AndyTravis I suppose it’s quite like a canal boat trip, various locks, different places and people - some parts are rocky, some calm…etc. 6 @kingofthestuntmen The title has a double meaning; I'm always happy around and/or in water. 7 @upside downer A slow, meandering, folky acoustic saunter through the musical tunnel towards a jaunty exit. 8 @Baloney Balderdash Kind of a Sonny Sharrock inspired piece. There we have the February offering for you, I would have had this up earlier but the weather appears to be having some fun with the stability of my internet connection. Vote for your favourite 3 tunes this month Voting ends at midnight on 28th Good luck. Edited February 23 by lurksalot 3 Quote
Baloney Balderdash Posted February 23 Posted February 23 (edited) I could only submit, or at least only submitted, 1 vote, by mistake? Were we supposed to vote for 3 tracks? Edited February 23 by Baloney Balderdash Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted February 23 Posted February 23 I think in this case, you don't need to vote for anyone else Cheers! 2 Quote

Baloney Balderdash Posted February 23 Posted February 23 (edited) Also, actually the full title to my track is: "Dud Bottomfeeder - Revenge of the Noodles IV - The Final Stand (an avant-garde epilogue)" from the album "Live at The Noodle Factory - There's Light at the End of the Tunnel, and I Think I Am Going to Die" But SoundCloud doesn't allow such long titles.

If You send me your choice of picture for March, I'll set it up as soon as I can Edited March 1 by lurksalot 2 1 Quote
MoonBassAlpha Posted March 1 Posted March 1 Thanks everyone! I've been thinking about the photo and this came to mind. I was working a short contract in Oxford with a group who make instruments for satellite and lander missions and had a spell in the clean room. I thought this could suggest more sinister stories though... 1 1 Quote

Use the 'choose files' link in the Edit box, navigate to and choose the Pdf file. Once imported, there's a hidden 'Insert' button that's revealed when hovering the mouse cursor over the bottom right of the 'Uploaded Images' box at the bottom of the Edit box. . See screenshot below... (This is assuming use of a PC, and none of this 'smart 'phone' stuff. That's witchcraft ...) 1 Quote
