So it’s 2009, wow, doesn’t time fly? I daren’t think how long I’ve been messing around with songs for this third album.
Mind you I only record a bit at a time, sometimes there’s weeks where nothing happens - laziness, business with other things or mental block takes over. If you added together the total time I’ve been working on it I guess it could be a couple of weeks, which is not long really, it just seems like it’s been a long time!
Where are we at this stage, January 2009? At the start of the year I had a very productive afternoon and created a song in almost it’s entirety, bar a verse melody/lyrics. It has quite a radically different sound then some of my previous stuff. I wanted to do a song with a bit of ‘ooomph’ and distorted electric guitar. This is the closest you’ll get to Fusty rockin’ out. I’ve now more or less finished the track called, “Rockies” and I’m very pleased with it. I may even make it the album opener as think it would be a good track for the starting gun. I was going to post it here but that would spoil the surprise…all will be revealed (eventually).
I’m currently working on a track that involves a slow bossa-nova beat, a synthy moog bass, and a spooky sounding organ. God knows how this one is going to turn out…

As always, excited about what you’re cooking up, Rob!

Thank you JL. I’m cooking up some mighty fine Fusty sauce! Supper’s ready!
(that sounds a bit filthy in hindsight)
