Awkward Silence

I recorded another band's song for my record label, Hemlock Records!
check it out:

and here's this week's video:


I got a new bass, finally!  Shoutout to Blighter's Rock for turning me on to the jazz bass.  Thanks for everyone listening and commenting, I'm really busy with putting out these releases and Orange Drink has some shows coming up in Milwaukee. heart

love to watch you play with yourself. Bass sounding killer, drummer holdin it down, frank markin it down

Royal blood alike. smile

Love the Jazz bass.

Had to come back to comment about the KAZOOOOO!!!!

Have in mind to record a track what will be named poor man's trumpet which will be layering of Kazoo. Not sure if I will ever do it, but since I just written it here, please remind me about it if it is not done in a couple of weeks... smile

Always fun to come back to your tracks - vids week after week.

Rock on!

Kept me in suspense, so much fun. Wait... where'd the mini accordion come from? And then having to just let it fall to the floor. big_smile

Now it’s Orange Drinks because there’s two of them. 🙃

That new bass sounds fantastic, and you nailed it on both bass and drums in this one!

Congratulations on adding the band to the label + recording the track.  W15 submission itself was fun with a nice groove. Laughed at the side “percussion” pieces.

Cool to see you rocking out with yourself.  And the track had a great raw garage feel to it.  I like that you weren't afraid to hold those breaks for a decent amount of time (one might be inclined to say awkward) and of course the appearance of the kazoo and the accordion were the icing on the cake.

Yes kazoo and accordion hits ftw \m/ Love the sound of the drums on those hits.  Awkward silence rocks! I had no idea you were cloned yikes

For a second I thought the whole track was going to be like the intro and I was kinda keen ahahaha
But when the riffs kicked in, I was very pleased!! Banging track.
Congrats on the new bass! It looks gorgeous!

BASS
super Beastie Boys groove there  \m/

and hooray for Edie Current!

*sorry*

so fun, man. especially the pauses!!!
also +1 for the kazoo, hahahaha...

This here Drink is chock full ‘O’ Vitamin B and D with micro amount of K & A! Mondo ridiculous!

Banger! I laughed as the track progressed and the pauses grew sillier!

Loving the choices in this. I love seeing how bold and confident you are as an artist in 2026.

Good chops on the bass, maybe the trumpet and piano can join.
