I've started a new musical project, it's called Grinning Ape, and this is its first fruit. I've called it "Theme from Grinning Ape" as it sets out a sonic manifesto I hope to adhere to in all future Grinning Ape endeavours. Feedback has already been good, with XLT's very own Staz crying out "a merry tune". This thread will be my very own record label with ALL releases from the mighty Grinning Ape being made available exclusively here.
Theme from Grinning Ape - performed by Grinning Ape

Yes, it's meant to sound like that.

The accolades continue to pour in!!! I used dear old Fruity, which I swear by.
I've done another, this is Mind over Shatner, as performed by Grinning Ape.

I also listened to the Don't Get Left Behind foursome - I liked the tracks but why are they so short?
Also, do you have a Spanish / Spanish Speaking Country connexion?

Well fuck me sideways, Theme from Grinning Ape sounds like exactly that, a big fat chimp picking his nose and banging a hollowed-out tree, possibly with a child's leg. And having a lot of fun. It like it, dirty and throbbing and a bit cheeky.

Mind Over Shatner depicts vidid imagery of slow motion jesters on acid.
If only it were ten times longer. Please make it longer, pa! Oh please make it longer!

I used the BOClite vst, a freeware bit of kit that just plays random slightly detuned notes.
Grinning Ape - FAQ (contd)
Short tracks, like short films and novels, are better than long ones, unless the long one is very good and worth being long.
My cod-spanish I employed as I live in South America, it's just my little attempt to integrate a bit further.

some ambient tracks could go on forever. so we'd just have to press 'stop' or 'next' when we the thirst is quenched.

Monkeys aren't cool anymore, niether are gorillaz, bathing ape, ben davis, monkey tennis, drunkn monkey, monkey magic or any other hilarious (ex) student antics invloving the word monkey.
Tune was alright, could have used more vocals, and that drum solo was a bit gratuatous.

Ok, I think I've invented Post-House, this track's entitled Judith Chalmers, after the freeloading, orange faced TV presenter.
Judith Chalmers.
I also put set about R4-D4, a tribute to the also ran of the astromech droid series.
And Run Ahead, a pop song.

I'd like it if you fashioned my scratchy, frayed, filthy sketches into full blown magnus opus Magnus Magnusson light-synth epics that would conjour images of Vangelis and Jean Michel Jarre having a fight in a luxury hotel's lift.

Stalag 17 could be off the Caustic Window LP.
Run Ahead sounds a bit like a Polygon Window track in places.
Mind over shatner is good. Boclite VST is the bomb, I hear boc have used it on the new album.
I didn't like Judith Chalmers, but the rest of the other tracks were okay too.

Is it a Fake, or an homage to the new scene EVERYONE is falling over themselves to be a part of, the Grinning Ape sonic manifesto? Either way, it's easily your best track ever! Well done!
