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."
