    Hi David, do you remember when I started the "Lyrics-to-Song" project and promised to write and record a song based on the lyrics of one of my friends on MySpace? I made this promise because I wanted to give something back for the support Alien Graffiti received since starting out on MySpace. If you like, you can read more about the project under my blog titled "Your Lyrics + My Music = OUR SONG!".

    Today I want to keep my promise!

    "Lyrics by Tiffanie Stevenson + Music by Alien Graffiti = CRAZY HAT"

    If you want Alien Graffiti to keep the "Lyrics-to-Song" project alive and compose more songs based on my friend's lyrics, drop me a comment or message!

    Hi my friend....A New track is up on my player now. It is Raw and Rockin' and It's called "Dance with the Gypsy"...All Bass sounds were performed on my Spector Euro 5LX Custom Fretless Bass and my Boss processor for the "Chainsaw" rythm sound. There are no loops or overdubs and the Bass tracks were done in one take each.... Yeah it's RAW indeed my friend. Please check it out when you have time and leave a comment if you can.
    Sending Peace, Love and Respect always,from ya BISCUIT.
