MX Skroch - The Woman in My House (EP)

“The Woman in My House” is a collection of songs written, performed, recorded and produced by MX Skroch at home during the mid-1990s. This is the final release of a trio of EPs featuring what I would consider my “pop” and “rock” music of the era.

The original mixes (from 4-track analog cassette) of these songs were deconstructed and then remixed for a fresh sound. Thanks for the assist, technology!

It was not intentional but the EP deals nearly exclusively in the dating scene of the early 1990s. Lots of pagers and cigarettes and dank nightclubs. The good old days!!!

Notes

Album #: 126 Recording Dates: 1994-1997 Release Date: 2026 Catalog: SMR39 Notable Tracks: Track 02 - Settle for Me (MX Skroch) - A good example of why I don't promote myself as a singer - still I think this track tells a nice story. I enjoy that the bass holds down the melody and that the chorus sticks in my brain like tar. [Scratch on Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Bass, and Drum Machine] Track 04 - Extra Drunk (MX Skroch) - A heavy rager after all that contemplation. This song describes a typical Saturday night on Chicago’s West side as I experienced it while delivering pizza in the early 1990s. Cars with subwoofers so huge their bumpers dragged on the ground raised the flags of their mother countries high. And drank beer. Lots of beer. It was quite a scene. [Scratch on Vocals, Electric Guitar, Bass, and Drum Machine] Track 05 - Average (MX Skroch) - Passing judgement on my fellow 20-somethings...I guess some things never change with me. Kind of a singer songwriter track for the disaffected set. Fairly unique here is the lack of electric guitar; but don't worry - the keyboard picks up the slack. [Scratch on Vocals, Samples, Acoustic Guitar, Bass, Keyboards, and Drum Pad]
