    Well, its a lot later than I usually finish the song but its finally done. Song 23 ‘Bad Things, Good Times’.

    Download the MP3 here.

    It started out as a song about how difficult it is to tell what things are good for you and what aren’t. Now I’m not sure what the song’s about. Musically I was really trying to do something different this week and I think I’ve achieved that. Its the first time I’ve used synths and boy are they addictive! I really had to stop myself from going over the top. I’ve never been a big fan of synths, mainly because they scare me. But thats what its all about. Trying new things, especially things that scare you.

  • wow dude ACE!!! a different direction – You’re crazy, man. I like you, but you’re crazy. again!totally nailed it with the moog-like synth!!! ACEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I LIKEY!! Different, but production wise, the best one I’ve heard. I could def imagine hearing that on the radio and would think it was a pro.Just one thing: you have a rather American accent when you sing. I would love to hear something like this song but with your natural accent, or even something a bit more ‘London’. It is extremely popular on the music scene at the moment anyway to have a strong U.K accent coming through in songs and it would be great to hear that from you -especially in a song like this one with such great production levels.Anyway, it was great anyway! Well done!x

  • Nice work man! Theremin is definately the way ahead! I’m thinking who needs violin… ;) I particularly like the driving beat punchy use of wah. nice.

  • And then Spurs decide Defoe should play midfield to fill the gap and sign Van Persie to play up front. Oh, and Lampard plays for Arsenal - posted on 20/05/2012 10:30
  • As a football analogy it's the equivalent of Lampard retiring and Chelsea signing Modric to replace him. - posted on 20/05/2012 10:26
