I've always enjoyed the classic film, 'Orphee' by French artist/Poet Jean Cocteau. This experimental piece is inspired by a section of that film

Pop/Rock, Psychedelic, Ambient, Rhythm & Blues and beyond.
Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
In the film, Orphee (who is a poet) played by Jean Moreau, sits in his car, in his garage and hears strange transmissions (of only a series of seemingly random numbers) on the radio. He becomes obsessed by them thinking that they some code sent to only him. He believes that they are messages from the underworld. . . now 'Google' about this classic old film and about the amazing life of French poet/ Artist/Film maker, Jean Cocteau. :)

I really must try and see this film some time. It sounds very strange and mysterious, just my kind of thing! Great music track, I like the vocal additions and the overall vibe - it grabs your attention in a subtle way, very unusual, with a kind of quirkiness - something that is very often apparent in French movies.

I will have to put this film on my list. I may have seen it years ago, but with my vintage mind, I may not remember it. Nice ambient soundtrack you've made here. It has sparked my interest!!
