Skol303 Posted January 1, 2018 Author Posted January 1, 2018 (edited) I have certainly been suffering some shiitake over Christmas. Edited January 1, 2018 by Skol303 Quote

Thanks, Lenny; you've given me a way into this. I'll see what I can do with the title 'Craterellus cornucopioides'. Hmm... Back soon... Edited January 1, 2018 by Dad3353 Quote

It started off as a solo bass musing having looked at the pic... Now my mate has put some semi random acoustic guitar chords over the top and I'm currently improvising some drums over the top. It's definitely a bit free-form, a bit funghi and a touch freaky. You might think Stinkhorn a better name Quote

Anything's better than the savage 'wah' trombone stuff, and we've agreed to let the bagpipes alone for ever, so 'Bring it on..!', I say. It can't be that bad, can it..? Can it..? Quote
xgsjx Posted January 1, 2018 Posted January 1, 2018 I might have to do mine solely on the MacBook. Im redecorating the house & there’s not mush room to get my keys & instruments set up. 1 Quote
Doctor J Posted January 1, 2018 Posted January 1, 2018 That picture deserves lots of entries. I tried to record something earlier but it was a shittake. 1 Quote

Mornats Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Loving all of the puns I'm pretty sure mine's going to include a couple of Spitfire libraries - Orchestral Swarm (as heard on the Blue Planet 2 soundtrack) and Albion V Tundra. I have an idea growing rapidly in my head (see what I did there?) Quote
