Zen Bound 2 & Rebound
Yay! Yaya!
Zen Bound 2 Universal is out now for all the iDevices, get it while it’s stinking hot! To commemorate this momentous release, we also released my soundtracks for both the ZB games.
So: to download Bound & Rebound, go to the Zen Bound website and enter your email on our non-spammy spam list. You get Instant Winz in form of the soundtrack download link. And we get to send you funnies once or twice a year.
About that ZB2 Universal. Man, it’s a good game, I think, the best we’ve made so far. You really should own it. Yeah, you. Did you know we have also been doing a desktop version? No? Well that’s it up there, the video, me playing on my MBP, I have to tell you, the touchpad controls are almost as sweet as on iPad. Syrupy.
No, don’t talk to me about Android, why did you buy that?
Oh you didn’t really believe all that bullshit about open source, did you?
You thought you’d get porn, ha? Well, someone has to code those tits, you know, and no-one is doing that shit for free! :D Okay, okay, maybe we’ll do androids, too, for you. In the future, when it’s not frowned upon, sex with robots. For now, download my music and buy some wooden objects.
Ghost Monkey! Ghost Monkey?
♠ Ok, I’m not stupid, it’s kinda music but what IS this Ghost Monkey anyhow?
Ghost Monkey is me, sometimes with friends. It’s not exactly outside genres but I do like to try out sounds I don’t get to hear elsewhere. You get a mixed bag of slow stuff and rough stuff. Serves you right.
I started making music partly to get rid of the constant MTV noise around me, lately I’ve just stopped watching MTV or listening to FM radio! I make music because I love it, if it makes your day better, my job is done and paid in full.*
♠ Thanks.
It’s okay. Here’s the goods:
The Album Page.
Get your music here for free. What is this shit?
And this stuff seems … unfinished?!
I rarely go to MySpace, lately, to be honest but it’s nice to have so many friends!. See, now, you found me, now you get it here!
* Unless someone good decides to publish it, fair deal, then you get to have Finished Products in digital form and hopefully on wax.

Fast Food : Pitafel
I really like Logic 9, made some takeaway. Might be a bit harsh on old ears, I’ve done my worst to make fast food joint music. Still to come some day: Iskender Donor, Kbab Donor and Meatigan Menu.
EDIT: MONDAY ADDITION : LOGIC DISTORTIONS AND AMP DESIGNER
I also spent some of my last holiday moments testing the distortions on Logic 9, here’s a silly multitrack rave organ bit
… first clean
… and then through the amps and “pedals”.
They’re rather useful, in my opinion, not as revolutionary as the flex time but a handy way of dirtying up your tracks. As with most things, these would be better used in moderation but as Pitafel also demostrated with the flexible timing, sometimes you need to use the obvious things with your new toys first, to get them out of the way. Right?

Ghost Monkey : Tea For Miss Yamaha (2001)
Here are the mp3:s in glorious 120 bps. I could’ve made them hi-fier but … uh .. well … they are digital. as in inferior to vinyl. feel that. CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE WHOLE ALBUM
“Ghost Monkey: Tea for Miss Yamaha” vinyls exist but are heavy as fuck and cost a bit to send. doh. Obviously. Cd:s don’t but i can make it happen if you give me a good excuse. or then you could just donate me some money and feel good about downloading the mp3s.
We’ll start off with the Second Coffee Nimbus which tells us about life in the northern hemisphere. Just turn on the tube on an empty channel and imagine you’ve got a video to go with all of these. Second, let’s enter Blues for freaks. In this church the things have truly gone to hell. The tentacles of sin (lubricated for her pleasure) are all around. Third, if my memory serves me, is the part where Monkey Wards off the Juju. This epic tale follows the monkey through bad times of me playing a melodica. Finally there’s redemption and lurve. Fourth, and a closer to the first side of my beautiful vinyl, is Mountain of Glue. Oh yes.
Second side begins with Vahinja which is a story about a country that turns against it’s own citizens. This always leads to peace & prosperity. Then we have Assasins, a story about time travel, love, a nemesis and all that. I’m still quite proud of this bastard, really. Kryla Jam explores the slowed down disco territory. Jam is the stuff you put on a toast if you want it to rock like a rocking chair. Halla, the closer, tells us a story about human relations using the frost-bitten landscape of autumny north as a metaphore. Or so I say but then again I’m making these notes up as I go…
This record was produced, mixed, played and discarded by Polyfonken with Dj Holik on turntables, Anna vocalising, KrushingFunkLords on the flute, Evill as the sampled beatbox and a lot of (mostly dead) musicians contributing without permission.
Contact the evil bastard at t@polyfonken.com if you need another fix or want me to design Fabulous Record Covers and remix your multi-giga-platinum selling tune that rips off de la soul:s ring ring ring. Or if you want to release his next album
lots of love and thanks for listening
