Poor Vlog, this time my keyboard broke down and I had to send her the guides played on electric guitar (and by me). How she managed to get the harmonies right is beyond me...  |

Thank you all so much for your kind comments on the song, guys. We put quite some work into these songs and although the result is far from what professionals would achieve, we are music aficionados and the equipment we've got is hyper basic and limited. We don't use autotune or other note-correcting software and what we do goes through little editing so it's almost like a live recording. Personally, I'm pleased with the result and I'd also like to thank my hyper talented bandmates Vlogdance and Buttler who put a lot into it and, like good wines, seem to get better and better each time.   If this were an ELO song it would be on Secret Messages, maybe? Yeah, among the songs that were left out of the album probably.  If I had to find a certain similarity in style with an ELO era it would probably be Secret Messages/Balance of Power, yes. |

Thank you for your kind words!  It's always a plasure to "Work" with my friend Helmut83 and our singer vlogdance.   I'm really proud of how this song turned out. I think this is probably our best work, I really enjoyed to play the piano and the guitar.  Looking forward to working on a new project.  PS. Helmut83 vlogdance What about making an EP? We alreday got 4 songs, we can create a .zip file with the MP3's, videos (.MP4), and we can add a .pdf file (booklet) with all the lyrics, pictures, etc.  |

Personally, I'd use the idea but I think I'd go for a Jukebox EP (see definition here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_play ) when we have 6 songs -well, if we manage to get to that-. 6 is a more consistent number, particularly having in mind something might be already in the works...  I used to play the recorder when I was about 7,and I'm a dab hand on the triangle too so call me..... Did you believe what Horacewimp said about the juicy royalties? In any case, great, we've already got our triangle player for next song. Don't change your mind and flee later on!  |

Just had to share with you this nice little story that happened in work last week. The intro: three months ago I had to work one Saturday, along with two colleagues, S. and J. The talk turned to music, so I proudly told them I was in an internet band, and directed them to YouTube, where they listened to Inacwg and Instant Llama. They were quite intrigued, asking how we managed to put the songs together when we live in different countries. It was a fun moment, they seemed to enjoy the tunes. This week, I was in a sound recording booth with J. when my mobile phone rang. My ringtone is the intro to 10538 Overture. Switching it off, I asked J. if he recognised the tune. He said: "It sounds familiar - is it one of yours?" (HE THOUGHT ELO WAS US!!)  |

Most definitely, and it's about time we heard more  |

, but we're OK. 
Apparently it's quite hard to see them with the naked eye, you need to be looking through a camera or other type of lens?
