Well friends I’ve finished compiling all the details and here it is, the second part of my Year of Songs project. This album covers the period from the 31st of January until the 24th of April 2016. It has some successes, like Blind (Instrumental) and Quenelles, a Trio (this is possibly my favourite from the whole year), but also has the first couple of proper failures where I was reaching for something that I genuinely could not achieve at the time. Still - it was a learning experience!

It’s available to buy or to stream for free over on Bandcamp! SAWFAY II - Spring

Happy listening and have a great weekend!

I’ve released an album, it’s the first of four that I’ll be kicking out into the world over the next two months.  This one is Part I - Winter.

I am 48 weeks deep in 52 week project in which I write, record and release a song each week for a year. The realisation hit me just a couple of hours ago that I only have 4 more songs to create before I’ve completed the project.

Wow. I feel like I’ve only just started, like I’m barely half-way.

Here is a link to the entire playlist:

I’ve been lax in showing off my current crop of ridiculous songs. Here’s the latest three, two of which appear to be part of a larger work.

It’s been a while since I did much to publicise my work, but I’m here today to remedy that. In the last nine weeks I’ve released nine more pieces of work, some of which I’ve pushed off into the world with those little shivers I only get when what I’ve created seems somehow more than the sum of its parts.

These are my current favourites: soundcloud.com/mysterios… soundcloud.com/mysterios… soundcloud.com/mysterios… soundcloud.com/mysterios… soundcloud.com/mysterios…

And here is a playlist for the Great Song A Week For A Year Playlist so far: soundcloud.com/mysterios…

Life continues with its own ruthless pace and the following is the latest fruit: soundcloud.com/mysterios…

And to follow on, here’s the complete corpus so far: soundcloud.com/mysterios…

Entry number 4 in the ongoing compendium is a lovely floaty piece of acoustic art-pop. Should I feel a bit self-conscious in calling it art-pop? Nope! No prizes for guessing my references for the voice parts.

SAWFAY number 3. I tried to use as few guitars and as many basses as possible and this is the result. I’m quite enjoying only using acoustic guitars in these compositions, especially for the lead or harmonic sections. I’m still a bit shy about singing though.

So I think I’m going to do a thing.  Like really commit to something. I’m gonna make a piece of music once a week for the next 53 weeks.

This is my first piece. I’m keeping it rough and ready. This is only the beginning. soundcloud.com/mysterios…
