FOE – The Black Lodge
Just to prove I am actually doing something. Here’s the current state of my recording studio bedroom.
I’m butchering covering a track from the wonderful FOE called the Black Lodge.
Have a listen to the original below.

If it wasn’t for Toby Hayes aka Shoes and Socks Off, this whole musical adventure wouldn’t exist. He’s been in all sorts of amazing bands, and I’d probably have burned all of my instruments in a fire on Glasgow’s High Street if our paths hadn’t crossed. You have him to blame.
Here’s a light-hearted track with guitar from the man himself, which will be on the next album.

An 8-bit only version of ‘vital signs’ from Pulco’s ‘Man of Lists’ album.
So bizarre to see your music on Amazon.
A nice feature on the collaborative effort that the bowtie contributed a couple of chiptune tracks to recently.
Also, ‘the man of lists’ is on Spotify, which is rather cool. Have a look.
I have a new laptop.
I have a new condenser mic arriving shortly.
Hopefully I’ll be finished this bloody album that has become a rock round my neck within the next couple of months, and then it can be consigned to history.

A while back my good friend Pulco aka Ash Cooke asked me to take a couple of poems that he’d recorded and destroy them.
This I did, and they’re appearing on an album along with the far more musical efforts by other people soon. Have a click through to read a wee feature on me, and more about the album itself.
It’s good; I’ve heard it.
why won’t you call me?!
I would like you to call me.
That’s right… except I’m not going to speak. Instead, I want you to phone up and leave me a voicemail message. Pretend to be a long lost girlfriend… an Indian take-away… whatever. Make up a role and have a story.
It can be as interesting or witty or bizarre as you like. Just make sure you’ve got something ready to say that doesn’t make it obvious that this is all staged.
I’m going to then cut up and mash together lots of the messages into some screwed up track at some point. By leaving the message you give me permission to do so. You have been warned!
Fire me a message on here, by email or on Twitter @expectthebowtie and I’ll send you the number.
Two of my favourite musical folks, in the one place, in the one song.

Hello.
Here’s a wee quickie b-side of a track for a new Monday, and a new week.
You can download this one right away too.
Bubye.
