Here is me and Bjorn’s first cut back from the studio: manhattan. We’ve been hard at work on a Jazz album.. and hope to have it out this year sometime.. until then .. enjoy, and let us know what you think of the progress.

Manhattan (hell of a girl) Lyrics:
She don’t do rain
she don’t shine
She don’t do anything on her own dime
She’s not beside me
She doesn’t like me
Oh I went to hide
it took three days to find me

But she’s a girl
ready to go
i took her swingin and she found a new joe
you say I’m crazy just a swine and a pearl
let me tell something
she’s a hell of a girl

she says that money
binds of tight
she thinks a bargen is when we start to fight
she sold our wedding to her brother
then she took our honeymoon with someboy other

but she’s a girl
ready to run
I took her hunting cause she wanted a gun
Oh it hurt like crazy
but I’ll give her my world
Cause let me tell you something
she’s a hell of a girl

she’s a girl
ready to run
I drop my pants and she already done.
And she so lazy that her hair wouldn’t crurl
But let me tell you something
she’s a hell of a girl

she don’t do rain she don’t do shine
she don’t do anything about all the time
she smells like whiskey
when she kiss me
oh but that the only time she gets humble and frisky

she’s a girl
ready to run
you think i suffer
but oddly it’s fun
i wouldn’t trade her for the love of the world
so let me tell you something
she’s a hell of a girl

We’re back. The King is sick in this episode.. so excuse the painful voice. We talk a bit about different profit sharing stradagies in publishing and also look at the audio/podcast host podcastmachine.com. The Song of the week is a Challenge for KingEz to write a song every-week, either by collaboration, or on his lonesome. He had planed to do a collaboration this week, but with his frog voice, decided to write a song to fit his frog voice and mood. Please tell your friends about the cast and let us know what you think.. questions .. rants and so forth.

I realize the song may be a little offensive to some.. but it is a satirical look at the Pop industries obsession with youth and sex… and sometimes an explicit word is the only one that fits the purpose.

Make sure you check out KingEz on Sell-a-band and pre-order his next CD… Why?? Because he needs your help to complete the budget for his next CD. By helping (pre-ordering) you not only get the physical CD and Downloads you get get goodies and even profit shares of the sales.

Desert Town
Desert Town Lyrics:

dripi’n down like honey
music on my mind and soul
life is lot like money
spend it all you want so more

God dint make no dummy
by i might be a n imbosol
it might be funny
oh but the joke is getting old

every thing i wanted
everything i wished for
why you gonna light me up a spark
to watch it drown

in shadows
all that i did ask for
why you gonna build me like an Ark
in desert town

take your tempture honey
you aink sick but you might be old
damn the big mans money
talk’n bout the bitch of soul

ching ching ching

that Big o’l ass
is solid gold

talk’n bout money saying
Big o’l ass
is solid gold

sing it like you got some soul

I have to correct myself on this cast.. i said it doesn’t so much matter on the talent of the engineer HA! I didn’t finish my thought and it’s too hard to re edit.. of course it has to do with thier talent, I was trying to say, a big part between the pros and the blows is the equipment. This week we talk a little about the sonic value of your mixes and how they relate to the publishing industry. The web clip this week is airplay.jango.com and we also touch one tunecore.com. The song of the week was a colaboration of KingEz and Raanan Adler a fellow renaissance musician from NYC. Let us know what you think of the song of the week and the podcast.
