My latest "drunken noodling at 2 AM" song is now available from http://www.montorusa.com/crap/bunnies.mp3

Enjoy, won't you!

Again, ONE TAKE on this bitch. Amazing.

Do you have a version of that which is higher quality?

I mean in terms of bit rate, not in terms of the playing. See? I had an easier shot there but I chose not to take it.

This is by far the best audio-based work I have ever heard you produce. Well, besides that one answering machine message over Thanksgiving where you drunkenly asked my brother to marry you. But this is a close #2.

Wow, this is really good.

Where is your other stuff ben?

Ben · Post by **Ben** » Tue Jan 07, 2003 12:44 am

All I got up on the site now is a bunch of crap I doodled around with and happened to be recording.

Here's whatever I got there now:

You know what, fuck this. Just go to http://www.montorusa.com/crap and download whatever MP3/WAVs you find. Of special interest are:

als
als2
the aforementioned bunnies
ambertide
pooass (though I don't remember what this is)

Also, "NotPorn.avi" is, while huge, immensely entertaining, assuming you're me.

Nice. Is that strictly computer generated, or is it all off a keyboard, or what?

Ben · Post by **Ben** » Tue Jan 07, 2003 1:37 am

All off keyboard.

Specifically, this one:

YES, I PLAYED ALL THE NOTES. God damn, people.

Ben · Post by **Ben** » Tue Jan 07, 2003 1:42 am

"pooass", actually, is me on guitar, but that doesn't count, because I don't know how to play guitar.

Also, "doucheface" is brand new, because I just played it, and it's all screwed up, but who cares. I don't need your approval.

(But I'm always happy to receive it.)

While we are all sharing music tonight, here is Claim to Fame by Beaver. (C) 1995. Right-Click, Save-As to download. Or let it stream. Or, if you are on an alternative operating system, do whatever it is you lot do. Cheers!

OK, this shitty software won't deal with the spaces properly. Plus, even though I have HTML and "BBCode" turned off, it is still trying to turn that into an URL. Perhaps you should copy and paste it into a browser window. I don't know.

Can one... *PURCHASE*... this music?

Ice Cream Jonsey · Post by **Ice Cream Jonsey** » Tue Jan 07, 2003 2:44 am

No, one cannot. I could not in good conscience sell either Beaver CD.

I did make a copy of both CDs for Worm, but it took me four months to send them to him.

I am well aware that the songs that are available on the Beaver section of my website aren't particularly "radio friendly" or "friendly to human ears" in most cases. Casio, I think you said. Ah-ha. Hah. Hurm. But you're correct, of course.

So, to take money from someone for two CDs like that (and I am posting the best songs from them, I should add) would not be right.

On the other hand, we did do a cover of "Starless" by King Crimson which I kinda like.

Anyway, here's Pill. I sing on it.

Hi there, "Beavar Fan"!

We are currently working on our third album. We have yet to come up with a title for it, but it will probably have something to do with Drinking, Driving, Shooting or Swearing. Maybe even all four!

The track list includes finished versions of some of the "demo" songs that were placed in the soundtrack to the 2000 text adventure "A Crimson Spring." These tracks include:

Candystripe
Carnival Baby
Silent Hill
Shell

... and one other song that we have to rename, because we became aware that a band called "Rush" already named a song "Ghost of a Chance"! In addition, we have even more songs that have not been released to the general public in any form!

Our lead singer is in the process of getting married this February, so we're hoping for an -- at the earliest -- Late Spring, 2003 release. The CD will be made available and it's likely that I will hype it so much on this BBS that you'll want to get a hold of a copy just to snap and send digital pictures of yourself breaking it!

I still can't find the song that plays outside the bar in ACS on either of my CDs. Ben, the wait is worth it the CDs are real good they have jewel cases and ... they track layout is good. Not to mention I think the extra time is because I break so many fucking CDs. I finally finished Omikron thanks robb.

Notes: Download ben's music. ... figure out something to do with the free two hours between 3 pm and 5pm with Magnum P.I. being axed on A&E and me seeing basically ALL the A-Team episodes.

Yeah are you using any of my writing for lyrics on that one?

This is quite kind of you, but I should state that the production values on the CDs are quite crappy. And not exactly in a "Skullfuck the Machine, Anarchy in the UK" manner either -- we just didn't know much about recording back when we made those. There's lots of white noise (that's probably not the right term; white noise is really more a BBZZCCTTTCHTCHTHCHHCHCHHZZZHH kind of sound, but I can't think of the right term) on those songs. Plus cheesy drums which we've since eliminated.

I wrote that one after we did those CDs -- that song is slated for the new one, whenever the new one gets finished. As a matter of fact, Kurt (the guitarist) is working on that song currently. I'll check in with him to see if he has a demo of it or something.

So far we haven't. I think I still have your stuff in my e-mail, but I had a hard drive crash in April of 2001 and have nothing before then. I should check to see if they are still there. (I presume you have stuff not currently up on your website, right?)

There is nothing more punk rawk than a BBZZCCTTTCHTCHTHCHHCHCHHZZZHH sound.
