Introducing the band
The Voodoo Skins are Alex Potts (Clyne)
and James Hunter (Herman) who have been in various indie and rock bands
- such as The Monday Club, The Brilliants,
Oz Cab Five,Mercy, The Damp House &
for a terrible few months The Drunken'
Donuts!. Never wanting to run stagnant,
they have dabbled with different genres of music - even
crashing the thriving folk scene just to play. Evolving and using some of these influences to arrive at a place where they are happy at.So far they have released three albums with three different bands (go here - www.thebrilliants.net )
& thought they would try an invasion of the internet.
So far there's been no complaints.
they hope you like what they have
recorded for you and you've been having fun downloading their music...enjoy, enjoy, enjoy! :o)Band/artist history
Recording at the
C Sharp Music Factory
in the early nineties
with Steven from
the Cosmic Rough
Riders taking the production duties,
Clyne and Herman refined
their tune-writing skills,
and then duly forgot them to give them less structure and
more rawness
which has resulted in several bands taking this free forming attitude -
bands like
The Fairlie 2 and
Copperlungpipe.Have you performed in front of an audience?yes, we play live,
mostly in various imaginary venues
here in glasgow like
The Passionette Hermandoville,
(just a coincedence I assure you)
and The Crackd' Joint.
yes, we love it,
there would be no point
if one hated it!!!
No special moments other
than playing to mental cases, especially imaginary ones!!!
Throughout the 90s we played at a number of
folk festivals (as the Drunkin' Donuts
& Mercy & Oz-Cab 5)then started playing
Alt/Rock again..love it!!!
Your musical influences
Can't think of any great influences.
Just like every form of music there is,
from death metal to
torch music - Marduk to The Warlocks and everything in-between.What equipment do you use?
bass guitar, electric Guitar, Beatcraft programmed Drums, Keyboards. We use the Mixcraft programme to record directly onto the hard drive...Anything else?

I apologise for the delay in replying to your message. Finally managed to call in and listen to a few tunes. I'm amazed at the diversity of music when I cross the different genres. I can tell that you enjoy what you do as much as we do, with such contrasting results. (music wise not quality!)
All the best.Thank you so much for enjoying my songs and letting me know! :)Hi Voodoo skins! Thanks for stopping by my page with the words of encouragement. I'm really enjoying the diversity of your music. I esecially loved 'electric monkey bike'. Something about it reminded me of 'the happy mondays'...it might have been that amazing guitar hook you have in it. By the way, if you mean the video on my main page, it is streamed from another website.And i totally stole it off windows media player. Whoops, i mean i drew every frame myself. Gonna have another listen to electric monkey bike....love the effects on the vocals.i'm smooth! i didn't know it was possible to post a blank message, but there you go, i did it!
i really dig 'dance x', what a cool tune. it's definitely my favorite!All comments (17)
