Featured CD
Marc Twang digs deep into his repertoire to discover a discfull of kid's songs that he's written amidst his decades of dealings with adult themes and crises. Networking with some wonderful fledgling talent ranging from nine to eighteen years old, Twang puts together a pastiche of whimsical commentary and the usual wry wit. Although the twelve songs on this album are considered 'kid's music,' no grownup will want to miss out on the fun, and the perspectives presented by the six youngsters on this energized and captivating project.

Big Vat  Marc Twang pulls no punches in this folk-beat-raga-rap indictment of our complacency, latency and endemic inertia dealing with impending global environmental catastrophe. A chorus of kids complements the tune with its generational implications . Transplant Dude  Marc Twang segues into his new persona with a testament to his kidney transplant in October of 2000. A birdseye look into the everyday challenges and perspectives of living with one of modern medicine's miracles.

A Collectors Item! Stayin' In Shape  Marc Twang segues into his new persona with his latest CD, featuring 7 new songs, 2 insturmentals, and a cover of the 1929 classic: “You Were Meant For Me.” Resurrecting the lost art of album artistry is Sue Levy’s dynamic graphic design. At only 10 dollars, this is a deal to be dealt with!

Hangin' on the Deck  A testament to the momentum of destruction and complacency that, if not reversed, will send the human race spiraling into catastrophe. |
Over the Counter Revolution  Wry, tongue in cheek humor and satire zeroing in on the complacencies and hypocrisies of an alternative culture that seems more interested in self-congratulatory profits then in making real changes. Time  A Fresh look at the juxtaposition of idealism and the reality of trying to realize those ideals through the lenses of homelessness, technology, nostalgia and the ticking of the environmental time-bomb. Just Another Day  Over a dozen new tunes from Spring of 2001.

The Revenge of Marc Twang  The Revenge of Marc Twang: The pained (but youthful) writhing wrath of revolutionary disillusionment tempered by plaintive reflections and dadaistic digressions into satirical absurdity. Orkney Serenade  12 solo, original acoustic pieces for guitar in the "Orkney" tuning. Illegal Operation  This 10 minute, 2 song CD Single features the Cyber-Song Chorale backing up Marc Twang and his band in the "swing-showtune," Illegal Operation. Marina Morning  This Twang CD single features a 12-string instrumental and a banjo- embellished, bluegrassy tribute to his late automobile. The Late Great Utopian State?  "The Late Great Utopian State?" is an interesting recollection of Twang's days growing up in a United Nations community during the 1950’s. An arrangement of a Shastakovich piece, that later became a popular U.N. hymn, rounds out the recording. Feminist Complaint  Two wry and painfully honest looks at modern relationships complemented by the tongue-in-cheek accompaniment of Suzy Fox. |
