Mellotronaut Prognuts

This is my comment to kvr's march contest: Prog from the 70's.

Enjoy!

Let me rephrase my comments from the KvR forum too:

Brilliant stuff. I particularly love the organ sound and that synth lead sound you're using. The vocals are - well, Mellodious as usual. ) A great track that sounds very live. Great ending! Great!

Btw. are you still up for a collaboration? We talked about a new one after the decemmber contest when we did that Jello-X track!

[Laguna Rising]

Nice track Mello !
The organ is really in prog-rock style
The Vocals are really in Mello-prog style 

Cool thing

Cheers

Won't play for me Mello Not sure why.

[Mellotronaut]

Thank you very much for the comments, Marc, Laguna and Fred!

I loved to play the organ-parts. I think it works, because it was spontaneous. I pressed the rec-button and just played to the drum/bass/strum-basics.
The vocal was just fun.

ad Fred: I like your stuff a lot, but i can imagine, my melloing isn't always the right thing for you. I have the same problem with some of Max' (el Belga) stuff. It just doesn't work for me and he has problems with some of my stuff too. We are honest to each other and friends. So, no worries here.

I click it, goes to a download screen, and comes up html document, thats what I get on all the attachments here, tried right-c....same thing

I give up, I've told 'em what needs to be done so everyone can stream them, not just some...thats all I can do

Hi Chris!

I meant it won't download. Sorry for the confusion.

I'd love to listen to this, and I will when the dowload issue gets resolved.

Downloads fine here (Firefox 2, XP, Winamp) ... unfortunately
you know I'm teasing you Chris. I think this one's great. Dig the vocals and those guitar* and e piano licks. If my entry shows my Floyd influences this one  screams Zappa uber alles. Absof***inglutely cool. Doesn't sound exactly 70s but it's a wonderful interpretation of this month's theme. Prognuts indeed darling

*is this real? do you play guitar too?

[Fred S]

Hey Chris. Finally got to listen to this. What's not to like?    This is great fun! Way to Zappa-like for me not to enjoy it.  The organ and bass parts are just awesome.....perfect. And, singing is right on as well.

Great job here, Chris 

[Mellotronaut]

  Thanks a lot, Nikos and Fred, for your positive feedback!

Fun track. Weird organ and vocals. Partly Zappa and Talking heads. Prog isn't really my style but this is well done.

[bahgheera]

Heh heh, you sound like David Byrne / dude from B-52's. Nice track, thanks for sharing.

Laters...

WHAKY GOODNESS.  i wish this style of music would make a come back. 
The organ reminded me of Wakeman.  Thank you.  Can we hear more like this from you?
Im inspired.
