95 - He Doesn't Have a Soul
January 06, 2016 00:22 - 7.35 MBBrand new song, written incredibly quickly, about my looming doppelganger.
93 - Yes by McAlmont and Butler
November 08, 2015 21:00 - 12.1 MBCover of the wonderful "Yes" by McAlmont and Butler - the arrangement inspired by their live performance at Leicester Square in 2011, but a bit simpler still.
91 - There's Going To Be Rain On My Window Tonight
August 31, 2015 20:50 - 10.5 MBThis song is about a year old, but this version is about a day old. I feel like "There's going to be rain on my window tonight" should have been used by some old soul band, but I can't find evidence of it having been - Fleetwood Mac is the closest. And they hardly count.
89 - The Bats And The Bears (demo)
July 02, 2015 21:15 - 10 MBSWEARY WARNING: This has a swear word in it. Brand new song inspired by misandry and birds.
81 - Methuselah (Live)
November 01, 2014 10:55 - 10.8 MBLive version of "Methuselah" recorded at the launch for "Through Intermittent Rain", at the Bookseller Crow on October 17th this year. With Kimon Daltas from The Footage on very quiet lead guitar.
80 - You're No More Than A Mile From The Beach (Album Version)
October 05, 2014 17:21 - 9.17 MBAlbum version of apocalypse-fest "You're no more than a mile from the beach" with really kickass slide bass part. You can get the new album, Through Intermittent Rain, from martinaustwick.bandcamp.com
79 - The Man Who Could Not Read Minds (Folk Version)
September 03, 2014 05:59 - 10.2 MBFirst track from the new Martin Austwick album, Through Intermittent Rain. About someone who can't read minds.

66 - Landslide Years
August 03, 2013 11:00 - 6 MBWhat happens when you cross Steely Dan's "Reelin' in the years" and Stevie Nicks' "Landslide"? A song that's only half rubbish. It has a "A Little Time" vibe to my ears.
64 - Lullaby
May 31, 2013 23:03 - 5.3 MBCover of "Lullaby" by Loudon Wainwright III from his album "Attempted Moustache". To see the new video for "10,000 Letters of Love", visit http://thesoundoftheladies.com and go to http://spiritofplay.bandcamp.com/ for Spirit of Play's new EP.
