RE: new tune (with video)
Was rather an odd one - i dont really possess any software as such for this (just a free cheapy download) the video is all jacked off you tube and it is an exercise as such - took a couple of nights - but what the hell i learnt a little.
The content is a little dubious though - the vocalist is taken from a 60`s talent show (and was a comedy peformance of "old man river" and a Louis Armstrong number - original footage bizzare to say the least.)
However on a darker note the video footage of the gentlemen, is of soldiers recovering from shellshock (WWI).
It seems quite wrong to use this, especially with the glitchy rhythm early on.
If anyone is offended i can assure you none is meant - i must admit i had strong reservations about using this and have the deepest and uttermost respect for the men who suffered so much.
If you want to understand a little have a look at some of the original videos on shellshock and its treatment - you will no doubt realize and understand my quandary.
Many thanks and appologies
Martyn
