We love to kick ass and pump out rock songs. We love it when things get messy .... we just kick more ass .....
Hi from Coffs Harbour, Northern New South Wales Australia. I've been playing music for a few years and really love playing guitar based rock music. I am a bass player / singer for a three piece band playing originals and covers. I have a bunch of original songs that I've been writing over the last few years, and now the technology to record and produce these songs. Most of my stuff is rock based, although my musical influences are pretty out there and some of my songs are an attempt to introduce these different styles and genres. Since finding an interest in computer based music technology, I have gained a real appreciation for electronic music, and although my heart and soul lies with rock music, I am experimenting more and more with electronic music. I am actually currently working on some stuff that combines the two .......... (!) The music I have put on this site has been wholly and solely written and produced by me (with a guest appearance by .......... Daniel Cox playing the solo in the song called ..Mistakes..). I have also played all instruments, sung all vocals and programmed sounds. I have a band, but due to time management deficiencies, conflicting schedules, laziness ........... I thought that I would just go ahead and put all the s*** I could down on my computer and produce it myself. My life is, as is yours; a work in progress. Thanks for taking the time !!

Some mistakes are better left unmade ........
Lyrics
MISTAKES Words and Music by Marten Bouma (copyright 2007) When I look back at my own life, I know that I should well be pleased When you look back you never see, you’ve got a different take on these We speak we touch we never feel, we’ve gotta open up our eyes We’ve had our points of difference, and yet we still tell certain lies How can you tell that I need you, how can you say that its alright There’s nothing I do that’ll change you, you’re sayin that it’ll be alright How can you tell that I want you, I keep on sayin it all night There’s nothing to do that’ll keep you, from makin your own mistakes now When you’re asleep I’m wide awake, you’d better open up your eyes If you’re not all that careful now, you’re gonna lose your fucking mind You’re here and there, you’re everywhere, and yet you’re nowhere much at all You’d better make some changes, or you’re gonna have yourself a fall How can you tell that I need you, how can you say that its alright There’s nothing I do that’ll change you, you’re sayin that it’ll be alright How can you tell that I want you, I keep on sayin it all night There’s nothing to do that’ll keep you, from makin your own mistakes now From makin your own mistakes now (x2) You’re off your head I liken you to a bead of sweat You cling to your hopes like diamonds It slips down your cheek you’re falling Into the abyss, can you see this You lie to yourself You’re lying in spite of all of this Like a book on a shelf you gather Dust from the past, you’ve been there Before, whats in store for you now Your foot in the door Your breaking me down for whats gone before Your army of souls Relentless and cold, you’re pulling me down Down, to the ground
