These songs are great!  I don't mean this as a criticism in any way, but Southern Accent reminds me the slightest bit of Dr. Mario. These bunch of songs are exactly what I love and what I'd like to do myself eventually.  I love incorporating chipmusic with other styles and vice versa.  You've done a great job of that.  I wish I played guitar.  I chose the drums and never realized as a kid that I wouldn't be able to play once I started renting property sad  Oh well, I can always learn!  I can't wait to listen to this while driving.  It seems like some great cruising music.  Once again, (can't say it enough) great job on this!

Thanks Krubbz, I know exactly what you mean actually, I've totally noticed that too, I think it either calls for a lawsuit or a mash-up dance remix, or possibly both.  It's never too late to learn guitar, It's very easy once you get the hang of it; I would give you my crummy electronic drum kit that no one ever uses if we weren't such a distance away.

Thanks guys, Nick: Yeah, I played all of the live horns on Southern Accent, but there are also keyboard horns all over that song, I imagine the difference is pretty obvious.

There was a question that arose that I'm not sure if it was answered.
We weren't sure what was meant by a southern accent

Since you are canadian it could be a southern canadian accent, but I held that since you are canadian, then everything is south of you, so a southern accent is just any accent other than your own.

Tell is what is the right answer Mr. Band

The answer is that the southern accent is really just the way that I myself talk, because if you go south far enough you end up right back where you started.  Case closed.

Thanks for another great collection of songs. I would love to read a blog post or something on your recording and production techniques.

Thank you, I would love to do that actually, I kind of feel like it would be a little embarrassing considering my fairly amateurish recording style, but I love reading about how people record/mix/etc. and if folks are curious about anything I'm happy to oblige.
