New Track: "Glaswegian Gaming Apartheid"
From the Third EP: "Play'n'Charge"
Download: HERE
Anyone familiar with the doyouinverts vast body of work will know that by and large the output to date has been a strummed guitar here, a lightly bashed tambourine there, and perhaps a small dusting of hand-clapping and harmonies. What makes this surprising is that - apart from a Grade 3 on the French Horn - nobody in the doyouinverts has any traditional musical training. This may explain the slightly haphazard nature of many of the doyouinverts songs, where chords, tempos and key signatures collide with all the grace of a Tibetan Monk and a Chinese policeman. However, it is a little known fact (as are many facts of little significance) that the doyouinverts home turf is a copy of Sonar on the PC, a pile of samples and a lot of furious mouse clicking.
Yes, "Glaswegian Gaming Apartheid" is the first released dalliance with music of a synthetic nature. Will this ever appear on Pete Tong's radio show? Will it carve up the bars and clubs in Ayia Napa? Or will it air once or twice on an podcast, create a small smattering of posts on obscure Internet message boards, and promptly be forgotten about?
The Internet fame treadmill. She is a cruel mistress.

Hello. This is a good song (Lyrically).
And that is the faintest praise I have ever received!
But it's enough to add on to the fame-o-meter. Thank you!
Love the songs. First heard you on OLL and have now subscribed to your RSS feed. One thing I would say though is that sometimes the vocals get lost in the mix a bit. Maybe boost em a bit or turn down yr top end.
Can you do a song about CA games from D'courcy's arcade?
Its not there now. :(
