Ghost Estate

Ghost Estate

Six more 2 Tone instrumentals, deeper into Ghost Town.

Wind and ghost wails, horns falling chromatically in minor thirds, choir chants over a heavy rocksteady bass, and that sudden bright swing before the town empties again. Originals, made on the O8 DAW MC-303 and recorded live.

Ghost Town Experiments

Ghost Town Experiments

Three 2 Tone instrumentals in the spirit of Ghost Town.

Originals in the Ghost Town mould, made on the O8 DAW MC-303 and recorded live: chromatic horns in minor thirds, a wavering ghost wail, bubbling organ and rocksteady rim shots — plus a fast dark ska and a slow phrygian dread.
