Short: Funk rock song by Tim Rogers
Uploader: Tim Rogers <T.S.Rogers@cs.cf.ac.uk>
Author: Tim Rogers <T.S.Rogers@cs.cf.ac.uk>
Type: mods/med
Recommended-volume-setting: 5 (Richter scale)
Flying Colours is a cool, funk/rock, melodic, guitary, ummm... oh I don't
know - you download it and have a listen. I wrote it ages ago for
performance in my then band and recently refurbished it for uploading. I
think it sounds pretty damn cool. But then I would say that.
It starts off in a calm relaxing mood, soothing all those aches and pains.
If you don't like the first half, however, don't stop listening because it
suddenly ascends into a glorious guitar riff with pulsating chords
(there's probably a musical word to describe it) which will leave you
thrashing on your air-guitar (if you're strange in that way).
Please email me and tell me what you think. I don't know about other
musicians, but while I'm composing a piece, I listen to it so many
hundreds I tend to forget whether it's any good or not.
A quick appraisal of Amiga musicians: our beloved Paula has been with us
for over ten years now and she has not improved one bit. If I think back
to my first Amiga in '89 and the kind of tinny notes she was pumping out
in those days, I realise how much Amiga musicians have improved in that
time. I don't know how long it's going to take AT (or whoever) to pull out
their metaphorical finger and bless us with our hard-earned SuperPaula (16
channel, 16-bit with tea-making facilities etc), but I know Amiga music
will still continue to improve until that time. If it wasn't for the fact
that it sounds a bit crap, I'd probably say something like "give
yourselves a jolly good pat on the back" but I won't.
Hope you enjoy this track.
