2001 Lyle Workman – Tabula Rasa (Infrared)
MK: vocals[expand]
Mike describes the genesis of the track: “Lyle [Workman] composed, performed and produced the instrumental backing track by himself, then asked me to write a vocal part for it. His track was so fantastic, I could hear the vocal parts screaming at me just listening to it and I had the lyrics and melody written inside of a couple of hours. It was recorded in 1998, and released in 2000 on Lyle’s brilliant second album. I’ve gently begged Lyle to record an album’s worth of killer instrumental tracks that I can stick vocals on, but he’s been busy providing the soundtrack to the Judd Apatow cinematic empire– and good on him — Lyle is entirely a genius and a sweet man and deserves all great things.”
