MISC

Last year, David remixed one movement of Gabriel Prokofiev's excellent String Quartet No 1. A CD featuring the original recording plus five remixes, including my own, is now available from most good record stores, including this one. You can also listen to a clip of David's remix here.



WEBSONGS

Here are some extra little songs not available on CD. Many more of David's lyrics can be found, by looking at the gigs section of the site. I'll also post the new Newsnight songs here in due course... In the meantime they should be available here.

Sunny Intervals and Showers (2003) MP3
David says about this song:
"This song was commissioned by film maker Jonathan Levitt for his excellent feature documentary, Sunny Intervals and Showers. Depsite being about manic depression, the film is far from bleak, and you should definitely go see it if you get the chance."

The Insomniac Lamb, parts 1 & 2 (1999) MP3a & MP3b
David says about these songs:
"This pair of little songs was written for a bizarre interactive game called 'Double Up' designed by an old friend of mine, Phoebe Jenkins, and a couple of her friends. The first song was meant to explain the rules, while the second was the reward for completing the level. The game involved trampling around on a magic beanbag triggering sounds and images. It was good fun, but pretty confusing to be honest, and made no less so by the camp songs I wrote for it."
