Description : Anyone who has ever experienced the freedom of riding a motorbike on the open road, will understand where I am coming from in this song. It's fantastic. I tried to capture the mood of riding in the song and words.
This song has some of my best harmonica and guitar playing to date.
So hop on your bike and come along for a ride on the neon highway.

I'm not a biker and the only time I spent on bike was ended in hospital you can imagine what is my opinion about motorcycling...:-)
luckily, this is is only the protest song so I can feel that stg is different here...-.-)
very groovy music Mark...your harmonica is flying into song than those guitars are fat enough to go back in time like Steppenwolf and friends...

fantastic harmonies, great vocs, good music here...thanx for the upload...fav, dl, handshake, Danke

Since I ride somewhere between 50000 and 70000 kilometers per year I guess I can relate. :))

You've surely captured the feel of riding a motorbike and the style is spot on. A great mix of southern rock and dark country if you'd ask me.

Thank you for sharing! Will add it to my playlist for sure!

Anybody who has watched and remembered "Easy Rider" just has to have a close idea of the feeling even if they have never taken the journey...this one would not have been out of place in the soundtrack. Great job on the harp and as you say, the guitar tracks chug along nicely & the lead bits got that classic vibe (makes me feel like I should go dig out some of my older Steppenwolf albums)...Fab job on the guitar break at 4:00...kicks the whole thing into high gear...got the picture of the boys hitting a nice long curve All round great job on this one Mark....fav....Ed

Yo Mark, Haven't done that kind of cruising yet but I can imagine how it would go after listening here and I can appreciate the enthusiasm in your expression. Fun, powerful, and you can feel the freedom of that Highway. Great find this morning. No issues I can hear with it, as is projects the story great enough. Thank you for sharing, keep doing it! Ride on

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.

Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.

Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).

Description : This track was like the inhale after an exhale of aggressive industrial-electro-sludge tracks that I had put out that summer and fall. This was the more reserved, and introspective winter track. It's nothing spectacular, but I still really enjoy it. I hope you do too. Take care. V.
