The Woman (Who Cannot Be Named)

About This Song
ROYAL COMMISSION is the bedroom recording project of Dean Robb (ex-Disapora, Guys Doing Stuff - as seen on ABC TV's 'rage'). File under alternative rock, post-punk, DIY, 'noise' occasionally, 'outsider' probably, and there are a few 'nice' ones where a bit of melody or a singalong comes through too. Created on a TASCAM DP-006 with some second-hand guitars and pedals, a $13.95 microphone from Jaycar and a drum machine. That all gets loaded into Audacity for a basic mix and master and to export a digital file, but that's about it. Bona fide 4-track recording like back in the old days. On "The Woman (Who Cannot Be Named)", I have gone all Kylie Minogue with what could almost be (for me, anyway) a pop hit! It came about by accident - I put the wrong preset into the drum machine - but I kept it because it sounded good.
