Hello, this is the website of Jarrad Payne. I am a drummer, producer and composer living in Adelaide, South Australia.
Here you will find many mp3s and some videos of music by me and some of my friends. Much of it was recorded live, some of it is available to buy, some of it is just rough ideas put up for kicks.
You can contact me at ja@scheerleaders.com if you wish, or through Facebook if you're into that sort of thing - but write something in the message bit so I know you're not just some permafrosty-hearted marketing researcher or general crazy person.
All the music up here is under copyright, so if you want to use any of it for something that you or someone will be selling then please contact me first. If you want to use it for something you won't be profiting from then that's cool, but please send me a link when you're done. Everyone else: enjoy!... or be enjoyed.
Moose & Squirrel
Live at COMA 2010/1/4 Dinosaur ('deinos' meaning 'terrible', 'powerful', 'wondrous', and 'sauros' meaning 'lizard')
Moose and Squirrel is what happens every time Chris, Jamie and I get together and play without specific instructions or stylistic guidance. The music is usually fairly intense, loud and fun.
For this gig we had artist Steve O'connor arting on stage with us. The songs are named after what he drew.
Expertly engineered and bootlegged by Marty Jones, one of the best and least-whiney sound guys in Adelaide.
Chris Martin – keyboards
Jamie Mensforth – bass
Jarrad Payne – drums
A particularly punchy track from the self-titled debut album. For those of you playing along at home: the opening riff is in 4/4, 15/16 (for the first four bars only.)
James Brown - guitar, stick Adam Page - tenor sax, tenor sax with feet
Jarrad Payne - drums, programming
Dylan Marshall - guitar Flik Freeman - bass, bass with beer bottle, lyrics to Bonnie Tyler's 'Total Eclipse of the Heart'
Jon Hunt - alto sax, saxaraca
- buy the mp3s from the whole album!
cdbaby - buy the physical cd! website - there is nothing really useful there yet. myspace - pictures and upcoming gigs and crap.
One of the oldest Immermann tunes. The mid section features one of the first recordings of a vocal-looping performance by Adam Page. The melody is almost bebop. This was recorded before I owned much equipment at all.
Jarrad Payne - drums, programming
Adam Page - vocal loops
Dylan Marshall - guitar
Jon Hunt - alto and baritone saxophone
Flik Freeman - bass
James Brown - guitar
Jon Wilson - claps
Josh Hinton - claps, woo!
ATTENTION HIPHOP PRODUCERS: use this track to make some beats. And send me a link so I can hear it. It would please me greatly. No law-suits would be filed.
This is a bit of an impromptu jam following an Immermann rehearsal.
Adam Page - drums
Jon Hunt - saxafrogger
Jarrad Payne - saz
We had a lot of fun playing John Zorn's Cobra game piece. It was the first time I'd ever played with Adam or Hilary, and also my first time playing the banjo in front of a crowd. I think the whole thing sounds pretty damn good. Expertly recorded by Marty Jones, Adelaide's most versatile and least-likely-to-whine-about-difficult-bands-to-engineer-for sound-engineer.
Stephen Whittington – conductor/some noisy things
Derek Pascoe – tenor saxophone
Chris Martin –piano Hilary Kleinig – cello Adam Ritchie – guitar/laptop
Jarrad Payne – drums/banjo
Some 80's inspired electro-funk music I wrote and produced for an independant short film called Golden Years. It was directed by Aimee Knight and produced by local human Sam Cherry
.
Part 3 features Brenton Triglone on banjo
Part 4 features Ronnie Taheny and Marie de Lint singing in Århus, Denmark
Part 5 features some vocoded Dutch by Marie de Lint
Satan's Cheerleaders
Live at the Bottom of the Ocean (all tunes written by Simon Ridley) The
Cursed Hands of Automaton
This was one of the first Satan's Cheerleaders shows, professionally recorded so we could use it as a demo to get more shows. A lot has chaned since 2006 but I still think this sounds pretty good. If you like this somewhat you will freaking love the album - grab it from one of these links:
