  • mp3 - It's Got To Be A Cuban For Me

    IT'S GOT TO BE A CUBAN FOR ME (Nichol / Orwell)

    On the mp3 player is a song that was written and recorded over two days at Drewmidorn's home last week when Drewmidorn and Robusto met for the first time. Drew went on to add and arrange/mix it after I'd returned home.

    Our intention was to write 'something' specifically for this site, and here it is.

    It can be who-did-what dissected, if you want that, but it was really good fun to do. I'll leave that to Drew if you ask him.

    The pleasure comes from not having met before and not knowing what would be done. I hope we will do it again.

    Listen carefully and you will hear that the subject is cigars. We smoked some fine ones off and drank lots of tea to help the creative juices flow.

    We forged a highly intellectual end-product and any criticism or challenge from you, the listeners, has to come in the form of an abstract chalk smudge on a pavement, a blindfolded flower arrangement or lengthy night-vision video clips of you doing stoner dance shapes.

    The song is available to stream on the front page. It has been registered in the way songs are already, so don't go copying or sampling it. (It is our baby).

    You can have an mp3 copy if you email me - provided that you give it away for free.

    Drew - You talk some, maybe.

    PS Deano will post it tomorrow.

    I think you've said it all Bryan.

    Just to reiterate it was a great couple of days, and for two guys who had never met, let alone worked together I think we did well with some great team work and had a good giggle and some good smokes to boot. I discovered Juan Lopez and I think Bryan may have discovered Cuaba....after all "It's got to be a Cuban".

    I'm looking forward to doing it all again soon!... maybe next time we'll rack up a little Punk number....or maybe not. lol

        Something Deftones, maybe.
        Or something The Selecter.

                OK.
                Drew - Correct me if I'm wrong.

                Robusto
                Main vocal
                Backing / doubled / multitracked vocals
                Piano

                Drewmidorn
                Acoustic guitar
                Melodika
                All sorts of percussion (Drew can list)
                ...including guitar back drumming, shakers, scraping things...
                Engineering and Mixing

                The end is so much like a Radiohead song but I can't think which one.

                  Thats it! Really simple arrangement but it works.... and nowt wrong with a drop of Radiohead.

                    The percussion is mainly shaker and the back of an acoustic guitar plus a couple of claves a dreadful guiro and a tambourine, all just to keep it moving along.

                      Brilliant guys, lovely work and in only two days, who gets the credit for the lyrics (always a big question when it goes platinum!)

                      'Busto, are you going to put it upon your external music site? I would love to link to it from my Walk Facebook page as I am up to 360 smokers there.

                      By the way I loved the lyrics to Snr serious!!
