Let’s get Seventies, mon!

Good groove – greasier than a Brooklyn pizza on a summer’s day.

One of my favorite T-Rex songs (another is “Raw Ramp” and the instrumental just following it. They go together so well, they merged ’em on the B-side of the single (the A-side, I fail to remember at the moment.…

Let’s get Seventies, mon!

Good groove – greasier than a Brooklyn pizza on a summer’s day.

One of my favorite T-Rex songs (another is “Raw Ramp” and the instrumental just following it. They go together so well, they merged ’em on the B-side of the single (the A-side, I fail to remember at the moment. Getting older sucks!). It might have been “Get…Read More

This tune is “full of nift!” 🙂

I’m a power chord monkey from way back, and quality chuggage always gets a thumbs-up from me. The song has good groove/movement to it. I love the lower register tone of the drums (I’m not a fan of ultra top-end snare “sizzle” Drop that wire mesh thingie, mon! lol)

The bass comes across well – not too high and no…Read More

This is some good stuff, Bapu (and thanks for posting it on my lovely wife’s birthday, lol).

It’s got that “end of the ’80s, right on the cusp of the ’90s” kinda’ vibe. The subject matter is pretty… “apocalyptic” – and I love stuff like that.

It’s got the right synth to guitar ratio, and the drums hold the whole thing together like a good…Read More

This is cute. Reminiscent of some Beatles, or Harry Nilsson tunes. Very cool that your “little girl” remembers your songs from her childhood. My daughter is in her thirties, married and raising goats with her husband on their Arkansas farm. She’s not really into the kind of music I make, but she gives me ideas for tunes sometimes.

Have you…Read More

Good stuff, Mister Nick! How do you keep track of what’s going on with all those knobs, switches, cords, cables, and assorted whatnot… and still crank out the righteous grooves?

Is that a Prophet 5 I see, or one of the more “modern” models? I loved that synth sound on so many of my favorite bands’ songs and albums.

I’d love to hear your…Read More

Nick the Analog Mad Scientist, baby, YEAH!! 🙂

I must assume all that hardware cost ya a fair amount, and you put it to great use. Brought me right back to my days in the USAF, when I was stationed in Belgium – dancin’ at three in the morning, well-tanked up on Bacardi & Cokes at La Mas de Corennes club to stuff just like your song.

Good…Read More

MANOMAN, MAN!!! This remix is THE BUSINESS!

Where do I start, with what I liked about your cover version? I’ll give mi best shot, mon:

The actual automobile noises, which could have run the risk of sounding “cliche” or “cheesy” are actually a positive boon! That two-beep part brought a smile to my face. Whimsy in Synthpop is a good thing, lemme…Read More

I am sad about your physical challenges that keep you from playing your beloved instrument at the level you used to (and wish you could again). And for those of us who press on despite our “speed bumps”, I think a forum dedicated to that subject is a fantastic idea. It may serve as an encouragement; a way of saying, “hey, friend. You have issues,…Read More
