She's Not The One She's Not The One
9-4-06: Another pop rocky song. I still struggle with the singing and mixing the vocals but it's not too bad. Everything written, played and sung by me.
Jenny Jenny
8-24-06 A fun punky little number. The Cracks from MD helped write this one and sang backing vocals - everything else is just me
Almost A Love Song Almost A Love Song
8-5-06: A bouncy guitar driven pop song, funky drums keep it moving. Started out as Pulp ended up closer to late stage New Order but really just all Tones
The Girl Who Didn't Show The Girl Who Didn't Show
7-28-06 Mentikoned earlier today that no one is making 3 minutes pop songs any more. Got home found no one in and decided to make one. Took 2 hours total, singing is not that good but it serves it's purpose.
Swim Swim
7-25-06 A somewhat experimental collab with Albert Forrsall. He came up with chorus, I did all the music, story and recording/mixing.
Fake Love Fake Love
7-15-06 Fake Love. Started again with a Gorillaz idea but went elsewhere. Everything except drums played and written and sung by me. Quite happy with this one
Lying Lying
7-3-06 This time I attempt to sound like the Gorillaz, kinda ran out of steam on the song though
All My Lies All My Lies
6-13-06 An original written, played and sung by myself. Wanted to do one that would build over the song - a la Snow Patrol - ended up quite different but I'm quite happy with it.
More (Acoustic) More (Acoustic)
5-22-06 An acoustic(y) version of the song More that was done full band style somewhere down below
Panic on Friday Night Panic on Friday Night
5-22-06 Another written, played sung by me. Maybe I need to do the vocals again ? Started as an homage to Ben Folds ended up nothing like that as usual
Going On Going On
5-11-06 A Nick Abrahams song with me singing. Recorded a while back but finally mixed by me. One take vocals from me, drums from my loops and lots of Nick guitars and bass
Learning To Drown Learning To Drown

Saddest Girl Saddest Girl
4-27-06 An experiment in lo-fi. First song I ever did on the PS04 exclusively, written and recorded in one hour while sitting in the garage with the children
