"What shall we do now?" asked the keyboard.
"Well..." Richy spoke thoughtfully "We could explore a beautiful landscape juxtaposing rhythm, lyrics, melody and harmony."
"Or we could play Connect 4." said the keyboard.
"Let's play some songs." said Richy.
"Hmm..." The keyboard looked through her little blue address book with the moss-type cover. "I know a drum machine that could help... and some bongos."
"Great - that will add a pulse." Richy smiled.
"Will there be others?"
"I think so - we'll find out along the way."
"What type of music shall we play?"
"We'll find that out too."
"Well, I'm ready." said the keyboard plugging herself into the inner digital heart of the organic space vessel.
"Let's go then."

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 1/11/2006
Band Website: lastpreciouscookie.com
Band Members: Basically there's just ME (Richy) playing my Korg X5 Keyboard (called Joanne), my Boss Dr. Rhythm DR-660 Drum Machine, my guitars and blues harp. But if you're into the music and you can play bass or drums we should talk!
Influences: Scott Adams, Aerosmith, Air, Woody Allen, Tori Amos, B-52s, Erykah Badu, Bill Bailey, Samuel Barber, Bebe, Brian Michael Bendis, Bjork, Blondie, Betty Boo, Buffalo Daughter, Jung Chang, Chris Claremont, The Cohen Brothers, Darby Conley, Harry Connick Jr, Imani Coppola, Cornelius, Bill Cosby, Sheryl Crow, Larry David, Alan Davies, Ellen Degeneres, Digable Planets, Disney, Sheila E, Missy Elliott, Estelle, Evanescence, Extreme, Flight of the Conchords, Fugees, Nelly Furtado, Neil Gaimann, Tom Gauld, George Gershwin, The Go! Team, The Grates, Guns 'n' Roses, Hanna-Barbera, Jimi Hendrix, Eddie Izzard, Janet Jackson, Jean-Pierre Jeunet, Billy Joel, Jack Kirby, Kronos Quartet, Gary Larson, Cyndi Lauper, Stan Lee, Simone Lia, M.I.A, David Mack, Steve Martin, Paul McCartney, Aaron McGruder, Carlos Meglia, The Meters, Takako Minekawa, Hayao Miyazaki, Moby, Marisa Monte, Monty Python, Alanis Morissette, Mourning Widows, Frank Miller, Haruki Murakami, Takashi Murakami, Muse, Yoshimoto Nara, No Doubt, Organised Noize, Outkast, Vanessa Paradis, Prince, Queen, The Roots, Royksopp, Marjane Satrapi, Charles Schulz, Jerry Seinfeld, Dr Seuss, Shakira, Shakespeare's Sister, Kevin Smith, Tadpole, Rumiko Takahashi, Yann Tiersen, TLC, Tribalistas, Tribe of Judah, Velvet Underground, Bill Waterson, Wendy & Lisa, Joss Whedon and doubtlessly tonnes of folks I've forgotten right now!
Sounds Like: Hmmm... always a tricky question! In my head my tunes are a blend of Imani Coppola, Harry Connick Jr, No Doubt, Tori Amos, Air, Missy Elliott, Pizzicato Five, Nelly Furtado, Prince and Dr Seuss. In reality I sound like Last Precious Cookie! The noise is basically Lo-Fi music, mixing electronic and organic instruments, letting the songs guide me to wherever they want to go. I've always liked acts with many flavours swirled into one definite style, so that's the music I make.
