Euphuism and Irony

Album, Free Music -- posted by Michael Helland on November 11th, 2007

Hey all, here’s my latest album!

It’s all instrumental. It was recorded nearly entirely as improv, with myself on guitar, bass, or keyboards and Jimi-X from Lack of Change.

Then I kind of jammed over the takes as overdubbs. The result is, well, it’s this:

Barefoot and Butterflied

Album -- posted by Michael Helland on August 13th, 2007

1. Sky (3:01)
This is a rockin’ tune, sounding like Skynyrd or Zep, but with a gospel sort of tinge to it and a rippin’ guitar solo at the end.

2. Girl (4:44)
Girl slows down quite a bit, has a little more personal content as far as Kay’s lyrics go, and more sophisticated arrangement of instruments and synths.

3. Barefootin’ (2:06)
I don’t need those stinkin’ shoes. The only parts on the album not recorded by Kay or myself are on this track: B-Ware does some harmonica background, and Denny Ray did the upright bass part on a synth.

4. Dance (3:27)
Here’s a pretty tune with inspirational lyrics. The electric guitar and 12-string acoustic guitar start out, and new parts come in on every verse.

5. Blue (3:04)
Alley way blues, I wrote this song a while ago. It was Kay’s first recording. Once she caught the recording big, an entire album had to be made.

6. Fool (4:59)
More rockin’.

7. Look (3:30)
A mellow easy going tune. The 12-string leads are tasty.

8. Fire (3:54)
Sultry!

9. Ride (3:24)
More rockin’. Kay and I nick-named this one “The Weird Ass Carnival Song” after the chromatic playfulness toward the end.

10. Center (3:45)
Also called Headed to the Center. This cut was a single take with Kay and sitting on the couch playing and singing.

All songs written by Kay-Z except blue, fool, center by Mike Helland


Kay-Z

Artist -- posted by Michael Helland on August 10th, 2007

Introducing the newest Cloud artist, may I have a round of applause for Kay-Z!

I asked Kay to sing on a blues track a while ago, even though she was more used to singing in church, and sure enough, she nailed it.

So talk soon began of an album. And here we are, on the day of the CD’s online release.

Hopefully I can get her to put a few words here.

Album Shmalbum

Album -- posted by Michael Helland on January 7th, 2007

Album Shmalbum is HERE!

It’s Cameron Bameron’s first album, and you’re probably not ready for it.

Yeah, you heard me: you are not ready for this.

But it’s here anyways. It may entertain you. It may offend you.

I guess that all depends on how you feel about pooping, self-love, and deep-seated hatred.

Without further ado, the craziest Ukulele album you will hear this year: Album Shmalbum by Cameron Bameron!

1. Flowers on an Island
A nice little instrumental track of uke and kazoo. It’s meant to fool you. The rest of the album is not nice.

2. Sick Fucks
Yeah, it’s starting now. This track has some snare drum, distorted bass, and a bunch of other instrument I forgot the name of.

3. Burritos Free Download!
This one should make you hungry for… you guessed it… tacos!

4. Happy With You
I’m happy with you… are you happy with me?

5. Ballad of the Ex-girlfriend
Cameron actually plays guitar on this track, rather than uke, and he’s a fine picker of the six string. Some people think the 2 extra strings, and dozen extra frets would slow him down, but that’s not the case.

There’s a lovely vocal arrangement at the end of this song. Shouldn’t be missed. Unless you hate a four letter word that rhymes with “punt”.

6.Sex Edy’s
This is a sort of disco track that just sort of happened while in the studio one night. I’m not sure if Cameron made up the lyrics as he went, but surely we can all agree: there’s a pussy on my face now, there’s no way to define butt sexs.

7. Juicy Lemon
Like “Happy With You”, this is one of the tracks where Cameron takes on multiple personalities, which have a dialog with themselves. Contains a little refrain at the end that has people singing along accross the country. Honestly.

8. Tasty
Beautiful song. It was a last minute addition to the album, and thankfully it got recorded. It’s a very beautiful song. I guess that’s all I have to say about it. I love it. Beautiful song.

9. Sleep
Sleep, bitches!

10. d.o.m.e.u.
This is experimental ukulele at its finest. Instrumental track, lots of noise.

11. Poop’s Ahoy Free Download!
A video, or cartoon, or something is going to be made as a visual-track for this song, and you’re going to see it everywhere on the Interenet. Mark my words.

12. Here To Stay
This song, if I had to guess, is autobiographical for every 14 year old boy. It’s about boners. It starts and ends with two little mini-skits.

13. Fuck You
This song starts out with the greatest lyric ever written. EVER! Then it starts to get mean.

14. Phone Fucked
More of Cameron’s schizophrenic dialog. This track still has vocals and ukulele at the core, but fretless bass and synths give it a unique flavor.

15. Drinkin’ Game
A fun track. Not really a song, but a skit to a beat, between Cameron and his brother.

16. Tina
I’m not sure who Tina is, but I doubt she appreciates the world knowing how disgusting she is.

17. Flowers on an Island
Last track, same as the first.

Well, there’s the lowdown. Now check out how low-down and dirty this thing gets!

(Running time is 30:47)
