Thank you. I appreciate the tangential connection with Yello.
Bondo Montage could be seen and heard as a car chase. (It actually started as a reworked and eventually expanded version of a track from our upcoming album Sixty Second Chances titled Car Acrobatic Theme.)

So I realize this video is not the greatest quality, but here is a song my band worked on today. TRANSCENDENT - HERE COMES THE REAPER https://youtu.be/om9jvco50W0?si=Gc57RZR48EcSUwTv

Excellent Dream

As I mentioned in a previous post, we, Bolsheviks of Madrid (Bret Hamilton and Stev Fargan,) would provide further details about individual tracks from our latest album, Forever Postage (cover art by Todd Alcott.)

Excellent Dream is a track that sounds like its title. Allow yourself to be immersed in the easy electronic atmosphere while feeling the warm vibe of the fretless bass.

I don’t see a link on your site, do you have a bandcamp set up where someone could buy the album? I really dig that vibe. I listen to a lot of this kind of dreamy instrumental stuff while I’m working.

Thank you @faydout.

We go through CD Baby for our distribution to over 30 different platforms. (They used to do digital sales as well as CD sales, but that ended around 2020. ) I need to look into how many of the 30 plus sites handle sales as well as streaming. I also need to look into Bandcamp as well.

We still have CDs of our first two albums and have ordered CDs for Forever Postage. We will have another new album coming out sometime in January as well.

Do you have a CD player? If so, send me a message, I would be happy to send some to you.

Since you are into dreamy instrumental stuff, you probably would like listening to my second solo album, SoleTerra8. (It has eight, close to eight-minute long tracks that are great for yoga, massage, meditation, and relaxation.)

Thanks again. I appreciate the added motivation.

New Day, new song, same old me

Thanks Jerry it took a slight turn in feel but the bass line is the same and used the same effects and amp you heard in the office

Thank you…I was happy with the way the video turned out since I didn’t really have much of story on this one to build on. I picked up a boss me 6 for next to nothing but hadn’t used it so I used the hiband flanger and the delay to record with then bumped the mids and highs a little to get it to stand out in the mix a bit. Thanks for that.

Frankenstein on the Beach

As I mentioned in a previous post, we, Bolsheviks of Madrid (Bret Hamilton and Stev Fargan,) would provide further details about individual tracks from our latest album, Forever Postage (cover art by Todd Alcott.)

Frankenstein on the Beach is another track that sounds like its title. Imagine seeing Frankenstein on the Beach. It is hard to forget that vision along with the sounds you might hear. Three types of bass can be heard on this track. There is some synthesized bass along with both fretted and fretless electric bass guitars.
