...of the Damned

It is a bitter irony that the musical projects we lavish the most attention on often don't turn out as well as the ones that came about casually. When you do happen to get lucky, however, it feels good. This week's installment of the Two-Headed Hippopotamus on a Bootjack Project came about fairly easily, and I'm happy with the results.

I found a detuned ukelele in the back of my closet and started strumming. The standard chord forms had devolved into something fractured and spooky. So I put it to tape and added a beat, and the result is a weird groove. As usual, my main beef is with the production, or lack thereof. My condenser mic is on the fritz, so you may notice some hiss in the background.

The composition is entitled Tiki Bar of the Damned. There is only one bar in hell, and it is a tiki bar. It is actually kind of nice.
