Love em both! Not a fan of long intros personally, but you’ve definitely got my head bouncing along. Produce and share more please 🙂

The first one scared me a little 🙂
The second one I preferred – had a nice sleepy start and was gently building like a good meal heading towards a chocolatey dessert!

Unicorn Pooh is great… I would however prefer it sans snare as it would bolster its ethereal qualities.
Still, great work.

Thanks guys! Really useful feedback. x

these are both really good bob. The first one is quite dark, but I like that. Can’t wait to hear more x

I like Bully.. can imagine some lovely contemporary dance moves to this one 🙂
Bobbie · January 10, 2011 at 4:29 pm
Thanks Kelly and Black Classical! Bully needs loads of work, I played it into Logic with dodgy dislocated finger.
Watch this space.

Really interesting project Bobby. Great to here your work. I loved Unicorn Poo it really reminds me of adventure time! The best cartoon ever made.
