I Don't Know What Happened To Me

The repeating part of this song came from a dream this morning, where 2 girls came to me, alarmed about some music they were listening to. It was instrumental, but there were overtones or something that made it sound like there was a human voice singing. It sounded like my voice, but it sounded as if that voice of mine was turned around backwards. And it was singing "I don't know what happened to me." It was eerie, so I made a song about it.

Here's a better mix (with a big, dumb pause at the end):

Gloomy Gus Song #11 (The Whiskey Song)

 

This is a song about why Gloomy Gus likes whiskey. See the movie file below for a 2nd mix (the timing of one of the banjo lines sucked, so I stuck another banjo on top of it to make it sound less stupid).

Part 3 of Hell Part 2

 Here's another dumping ground for the clips from the Hell movie I'm working on. 

The earlier part can be found here:

Late Summer Sunlight Is So Depressing

Y'know how, in late summer, the sunlight is all goldy-orange later in the day? That's always been a depressing shade of sunlight for me. It reminds me of being bored as a kid, at my brother's soccer practice at the end of summer, knowing my days of freedom were numbered because school would be starting soon.

Gloomy Gus Is in the House (Gloomy Gus Song 10)

Gloomy Gus went over into some country music sensibilities. Oldy, oldy, moldy, old time country music. But with other sensibilities, too.

Here's a louder mix:

I Miss Midnight/I'm Miss Midnight

This song came out of the blue, and I realized it could mean two things: "I miss midnight" sounds identical to "I'm Miss Midnight." It's a little double entendre magic fun.

Old

 It's actually January 22, but I'm setting a timer so it goes live on January 23rd, cuz that's my birthday. I'm old.

I Don't Have Any Angels (Gloomy Gus Song #9)

This is song 9 in the Gloomy Gus series, a song about what it's like to grow up to be a pencil-pusher, instead of doing God's work, as he had originally intended way back in the day.

Gloomy Gus Song 8

Gloomy Gus continues to ponder the music he heard coming to him last night, as it fades from his memory and he gets ready for work.

Gloomy Gus Song 7

It's morning, and the memory of the music that came to Gloomy Gus in the night is fading fast. What was it, now? What was it that woke him up in the middle of the night. Crikey! His short term memory ain't what it used to be.

Last Day of 2025

When people say, "Thank God this year is over - it's ring in the new year," I feel like they're tempting fate...like, remember when people were all, "Thank God 2019 is over - yay, 2020"? Then there was Covid. Let's not tempt fate this time around.

Gloomy Gus Song 4 and a Half

I recorded this song on Christmas, and as of last night didn't really think it went with the rest o' them; but it fits nicely, nestled between song 4 and song 5. The song 6 one I'm a little ambivalent about; either I'll figure out how to use pitch correction or have another go at it.
