More Blood
Oh, I should say to people who do not usually read my blog, that not all my blog entries are so gruesome as this one. Actually, they usually are not gruesome at all. But I am working on an interesting project at the moment calling for some interesting music.
And so, blood, blood and more blood. That's what I say.
Yes that's right, blood.
Blood.
OK I have said it enough now. blood.
done.
That said, I reviewed the above mentioned piece of music, about the above mentioned runny substance, ahead of handing in my assessment. The first version was a little messy in places, and had more instruments than is needed, and a few too many ideas. Composition lecturers pick up on that sort of thing. Please find the new and exciting version below for your listening pleasure.

quite Nyman-esque Wango. I thought the bass electronic sounding effect, like a big toad squat farting. could have been woven right through some passages with the violin/s.I heard the distinct aesthetically tranlated drop of blood, kind of merurial, in weight however, perhaps you want to tell us that the blood is poison...
Um, I thought it was nice - that was until I read the 1st comment which mad my brain leak out through my ears when I think applied it to the latest tune :-)

I danced all round the house and garden during the SToooooooRM listening to Bloooooood. Thanks for the soundtrack, it was perfect. The chaotic elementals that are thundering through my life (they are the ones that ride on the backs of horny toads) thank you too, they liked it.
OH! I like it, a lot!
I can picture some blood flowing... I'm not quite shure if the is good...
