I love Portishead and surf music. So this is what happened.

(recorded with a smart phone, haven't yet explored the USB-out on my Mustang GTX50)

дякую. Portishead isn't surf music. They can set an atmosphere, which to me is a characteristic of a great band.

Love portishead.
the connection here is slight,
It’s missing the keys and the trip hop vibe

I like it. I can relate the vibe to Portishead. It is dark, a bit mellow and mysterious. I think I would easily listen an entire album of this if it existed.

Yeah, always loved them and saw them live once, I believe it was in Utrecht or Amsterdam. And frankly, I've incorporated some of their influences into my own tunes on my previous albums and the new one will also have a tune that's partly based on Portishead and on Little Willie John. Well done!

I see you're Dutch - so am I. Therefore:

Dus, als je tips of hulp met eea nodig hebt, stuur me dan een pm, alleen niet nu meteen, want nu ben ik druk met het afmixen van mijn nieuwe plaat die eind van dit jaar uitkomt. Ik help mensen en zeker Nederlanders graag op dit gebied

Groeten uit Dublin.
