Gameboy and Ukulele avant folk pop

http://www.myspace.com/cjspk

Yaaaarrrrr (gyle),

Were a Ukulele and Nintendo Gameboy, avant folk pop band* (try saying that out loud, if you make it in one breath I'll give you a bakers dozen of high fives [the rainbow sprinkle variety {Oh, by the way my name is Casey James and I love nesting punctuation}]).

We'll see you're dozen and raise you a deuce if you check out our tunes, crisp off the stove like those fine Belgium pancakes (flap jacks, pancakes, whatever)...

*It's an awful tag I know. Just think, sugar rush, booty on the floor, cartoon music mutations paired with thoughtful, visceral, lyrics and a flair for the bizaAAAaaarr (that last bit goes with a sinister baritone with a hefty bit of vibrato [of course we sound more like overgrown, bratty kids {there i go with the punctuation bit}])

get rid of the conor oberst vocals

otherwise way fresh even gary

This is fresh! I have a friend who would love you guys. Songbirds & ghett(os?) Reminds me of the E*Rock remix of Victory at Sea by bobby birdman.

how is this fresh?

I mean I dunno, the generic bright eyes singing is annoying. My friends and I make up songs like this as a joke, because it's so fucking easy to make songs in that style, and how shitty they are.

I mean the BG stuff is pretty nice though, fun stuff. Bud Melvin is LSDJ + banjo, might check him out? I dunno.

It's fresh to me. A bit of a far cry from electronic music though, so i'm guessing i'm in the minority on this board who likes this sort of thing. And i'm pretty picky about my scene music. The genre is mostly shit but i can dig this

I'm glad you dig it twentyfourange.

Yeah, I haven't been too into the electronic music scene for a while (kinda peaked in the LP5 Big Loda era for me). This board just popped into mind, so I figured I'd give it a go.

p.s. We'd love to send an email to your friend of like tastes...

might want to consider a drum machine one day

other then that nice sampling,and quite original. Well done.

This kinda thing is right up my alley... vocals are a little annoying but I appreciate what you were trying to do with them and what they add to the songs.

Other than that... I do really like it... I'm quite fond of the whole 8 bit scene but I think I prefer stuff like this as it's more balanced in terms of sound design, I think you hit that balance right on the mark!

BTW what is the full name of that first track? It's cut off so it just says "Songbirds and Ghett..."

if listened to the song, you would of hear songbirds and ghettoblasters

Oh.. I'm terrible at making out lyrics in songs....

And I wasn't paying attention to the lyrics too :P
