Made you a couple of quick videos Tucker. I'll take the production cost out of your royalties.

Ah mate, thanks. That video for Other Side is sublime. Really captured the essence of the tune.

Really love the closing track, think it was a great to end the EP with something uplifting and optimistic. Great work Tux, could be your best work yet this.

I've deleted my "self promotion" thread now it's officially on Bat Chain.
Thanks for taking the time to release it, Karl.

For the closing track, that was exactly my intention. I did consider trying to fit some lyrics to but it felt like it just worked so much better as an instrumental. As you say, uplifting and optimistic; a moment to reflect and a beacon of hope. |

Good work tux, very moody and with a shared ambient between tracks that makes it quite consistent. Gotta say the Donald track was a quite an unexpected turn and a good release. I also think it was a good decision to separate this from the other tracks you mentioned.

Foolish marketing by your record label tux. Releasing something this close to the end of the year means you potentially miss out on end of year list placing.
I'd have held on til January if I were your label boss.

I also think it was a good decision to separate this from the other tracks you mentioned. Thanks for listening, barny. Hey Donald existed for a long time as an instrumental and it was possibly going to be a collaboration between myself and another forum artist. But I had the idea during the morning of the US election results to do something fun with it. Managed to find some audio of a crowd singing about Trump being a cunt so I downloaded it, slowed it down to fit the tempo and chopped it a bit. The end result was Hey Donald. In terms of it's placement, I figured it a good way to go into the closing instrumental track. We had 3 tracks before it which were a bit moody with the final 2 being a bit more playful or uplifting. |

Thanks Ax.
I've mainly used something called BandLab for this set of tracks. It has a bunch of midi instruments that you can control with your computer keyboard but you can also plug midi instrument, mics and even guitars in if you've got the right gear.
For the vocals I was having to get the music onto my phone and overlay the vocals using my phone mic.
