table-tennis-at-the-asylum
This is a song about a good friend of mine who was a very accomplished musician and buisnessman who fell ill to mental health problems and lost his familly and wife and home,he ended up in a hospital and has remained for the last number of years,this song tries to convey conversations i will still have still today when i visit him and he will go off on many tangents,so i tried to convey that by making three complettely different songs fit together,the title comes from the fact he always says when im leaving,next time we,ll have a game of table tennis at the asylum,which we always do :)

Very cool tune. I read the description as well. You sound like a great friend, and this is a beautiful tribute to him. I think the track works on all levels. Nice instrumentation, great mix, nice stitching of the the different pieces together. Nice addition of the kinda spacey sounds as well. Well done!

Nice work mate, really well constructed and produced. The vocals and guitar work are great. I can hear some Radiohead in this too. Doesn't mean it isn't a good song, we all wear our influences on our sleeve one way or another.

Well I have to say it was such a moving and sad story in the description here Jason chap, and the song was very well apt to the whole even of it on that score. A superb piece of work here Jason and a song I very well enjoyed every second of. You have great talent my friend and I like it chap, and very well done.
