SOME THINGS ARE WORTH LIVING 4
by BLACKDOGHAT 

I΄m walking down this street like every day
Somehow all the colors turn to grey
Deep inside my mind this feels so wrong
Why should I still carry on?
The sun and stars I love don't shine for me
I am someone they can't see

If I could realize
All the life still in my eyes

Some things in life are worth living for
You're the only reason I know
I will never give up like before
I know you will never let go
Even if the light in me should end
And my life comes to an end
No it΄s not your fault I couldn't know
Some things are worth living for

Now I've let the painful times pass by
To people whom I love, I've said goodbye
Every time I've looked in their eyes
Saw what cannot be seen twice
Wish I could've told them I could see
All that I once used to be

If I could find a way
To let them know all I must say

Some things in life are worth living for
You're the only reason I know
I will never give up like before
I know you will never let go
Even if the light in you should end
And your life comes to an end
No it’s not your fault you couldn't know
Some things are worth living for

Even if the light in you should end
And your life comes to an end
No it’s not your fault you couldn't know
Some things are worth living for

Lyrics:

All grows dim, time is winding down
My cheeks stay hovered over a puddle of brown
The voices outside of this cramped little box
These choices i've made to breed these cramped up blocks

The shit bubbles burst and trap all the flies
A concoction so twisted, Only someone like Bill Nye
Can decipher all these lies
Can scythe all of these cries
as this pit of stench boils in the middle of July

Out there the souls, eager for pressure to burst
Through their minds like a submarine tank submersed
Parades gather in the grass for the show to start
While these waves slowly rip my brain apart

A wetness caresses my hang lo mein
This water is rising am I going insane?
It tickles my demons but it feels so ripe
There's always a bit of shit at the end of the pipe!

I'm in a fecal position where the turds capsize
In a fetal position where my sanity dies
This suddenly doesn't seem so real anymore
As the septic tank thickens with the sludge of war
Where the turds capsize
In a fetal position where my sanity dies
This suddenly doesn't seem so real anymore
As the septic tank thickens with the sludge of war
The slimy hand of stench, Pulls me right down
In a puddle of madness, many shades of brown
NO NO NO NO NOOO!
Get a little taste of the waste in the swamp!

One Small Mistake

Here's an early mix of a track, 'Teetering On The Edge', which will be on this year's - 2024 - album ('It's Nice To Be Niche'), due out in October. Is it a song for the Flat Earth Society? No, but it could be. Is it a song about falling over? No. Do I like the word, 'teetering'? Yes, I do. It's a great word! But also, sometimes it does feel as though we are all Teetering On The Edge.

MEMOIRES DE VIE

Le temps passe lentement
La roue tourne comme on dit
Mais le passage des ans
Ne créé jamais l'oubli.
Les années qui avancent
Et continuent toujours
En prennent de l'importance
Dans ce qui fait l'amour.
Et plus on prend de l'âge
Conscient évidemment
Dans nos têtes voyagent
L'ancien et le présent.
Dans les jours qui vieillissent
Et voient passer l'antan
Tous les temps qui se glissent
Doucement et pourtant.

Il reste dans nos mémoires
Amour et belles histoires.
Tout ce qui fait la vie 
Réchauffe nos cœurs aussi

Il reste dans nos mémoires
Amour et belles histoires.
Tout ce qui fait la vie 
Réchauffe nos cœurs aussi

Bien s'aimer, se comprendre
C'est un toujours un voyage
Et on se laisse prendre 
A s'écrire de belles pages

Sur la terre en plaisir
De grands moments passés
Pleurs ou éclats de rires
Nous ont fait exister.

Revivre dans ses pensées
Ne voyant que lueurs
Et jamais oublier
Que c'était le bonheur.

La vie suivant son sort
Nous laisse de bons moments
Si jamais on s'endort
Sans des mots et pourtant

Il reste dans nos mémoires
Amour et belles histoires.
Tout ce qui fait la vie 
Réchauffe nos cœurs aussi

MEMORIES OF LIFE

Time passes slowly
The wheel turns as they say
But the passage of years
Never create oblivion.
The years that advance
And still continue
take on importance
In what makes love.
And the older we get
Obviously aware
In our heads travel
The old and the present.
In the days that grow old
And see yesteryear pass by
All the times that slip by
Slowly and yet.

He remains in our memories
Love and beautiful stories.
Everything that makes life
Warm our hearts too
He remains in our memories
Love and beautiful stories.
Everything that makes life
Warm our hearts too

Love each other well, understand each other
It's always a journey
And we let ourselves be taken
To write beautiful pages

On earth in pleasure
Great times past
Crying or bursts of laughter
Made us exist.

Revive in your thoughts
Seeing only lights
And never forget
That it was happiness.

Life following its fate
Leave us good times
If we ever fall asleep
Without words and yet

He remains in our memories
Love and beautiful stories.
Everything that makes life
Warm our hearts too

MEMOIRES DE VIE

JOY FEAT

In The Dark

In The Dark (feat. Aldae)

Listen here

I wrote this song while spending some time in the Kootenays in BC in the summer of 2019. I was in one of my favourite places on Earth and surrounded by towering mountains, breathless forests, cool lakes and rushing rivers. The song captures my love of the natural world. And, it’s a love song and wanting so badly to get another chance, and to do right with the one you love.

I was hearing so much at the time about the devastating fires in Australia and California. Like this year and every year since 2019, the fires were also raging in BC and other parts of Canada. We have had so many impactful and heartbreaking wildfire seasons in BC and sadly this trend is continuing year after year. In ‘Rivers’, there is an expression of grief and loss and a lament for how we are impacted by the marginalization and destruction of nature. My love of the landscape, mountains, rivers, and forests are ever-present here in the melody and the lyrics. And, it's a love song at heart...A call to action to make things right...wanting so badly to get another chance to make things right.

WTRM is one of the songs on my last album that deals with a sense of grief and loss in multiple ways/many layers. There’s the loss of the natural or the external world and the loss of the spiritual or internal human world. Our energy and spirits are impacted by the marginalization and destruction of nature. Everything is connected and we have experienced a loss of connection. The beauty we experience in the natural world is also reflected in us.

This song is also a call to action (as many of my songs are these days) to make things right NOW. Since writing this song, my perspective has shifted from one of grief and fear to action and urgent optimism. I am defiantly hopeful that we (the collective we) can start a revolution to slow down out of control bullet train of human civilization. I truly believe we can. And, I believe that love is the only revolution that this world needs.

“You talk about revolution
Love is the only revolution
This world needs.”

Where The Rivers Meet (Live)

Dedicated to Lala Miner 💗🌟

~~~~~~~

Like a puppet with a script
And some clocks to mark the beat
Of a heart that doesn't believe
Of a body that doesn't forgive
Of a mind that doesn't fit in
Of a soul that wants to fly, fly, so high

How do we know?
How do we feel?
How do we show?
How do we fear?
How do we live?
How do we hear?
How do we take?
How do we give?

Like a toy from outer space
And some rocks to show the way
To a heart that purely believes
To a body that always forgives
To a mind that bravely fits in
To a soul that's flying higher, high, so high

How long do we know?
How long do we feel?
How long do we show?
How long do we fear?

How long do we have to live,
without knowing what is real?

How long do we have to live?
How long... do we have to believe?

How long do we have to live,
without knowing if you are real?

How long...

How do we know?
How do we feel?
How do we show?
How do we fear?
How do we live?
How do we hear?
How do we take?
How do we give?

How long do we have to believe,
without showing what is real?

How long...

How do we know?
How do we feel?
How do we show?
How do we fear?
How do we give?
How do we hear?
How do we take?
How do we live?

How long do we have to live,
without knowing what is real?
How long do we have to live?
How long... do we have to believe?

How long do we have to believe,
without knowing what is real?

How long do we have to live?
How long... do we have to believe?

How long do we have to believe,
without showing what is real?

What is real?

Jeff Roberts-- @jeff_roberts – bass, seed idea
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– guitar solo, rhythm guitar, arrangement , production, mix, and mastering
Mistermark – @the user-432503709 – Mark – production, editing, synth bass in the break section
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ, electric piano, synthesizer
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – guitar solo

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – rhythm guitar, lap steel, vocals and lyrics for the verses, vocal harmony in the bridge
Composition – The Eclectic Collective

 This song began with a bass part that Jeff came up with and shared with Stephen, who had added some fiery guitar and foundational rhythm guitar to it. However, it languished on his digital shelf for many months as two parts, until he recently remembered that he had it. So, he decided to share it with the rest of the group. We were salivating, all of us, when we heard Jeff's bass line, so we began with Ken laying in the groovy drums and the tight, driving percussion, which propels the entire song. Once we had a beat, we decided to edit the part to include the break you hear about a minute into it. Mark took on that task, and deftly added the bass in that section, too. 
  Josh was up next, and decided to add a rhythm guitar inspired by Talking Heads. Once he had done that, he started hearing a simple, catchy melody in the main verse part, too, so he came up with some simple lyrics and recorded the vocals for that. At the same time this was happening, Ken also came up with some lyrics and a vocal melody for the breakdown part, which he added. After Ken had added his vocals, Josh added a harmony part on them. He also added the lap slide melody you hear in that section, as well. 
  JJ was next up to bat, laying in the breathtaking organ throughout. He also backdropped a canvas of synthesizer throughout and put in some electric piano too. Tez came along not long after and added the ripping guitar solo in the jam section. Once everyone had added their parts, it was up to Stephen to produce, mix, and master it. He arranged and added some length to it, then mixed it in his usual expert manner.
  This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with Jeff, though Stephen has worked with him in the past, and we were all fans of his music, and thus very excited for the chance to make music with him. Hopefully, this will be the first of many.
  We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. If you comment, please share, too. 

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:
The trees talk to each other
They send messages through the breeze
There's magic all around us
If we look for it, we can see
 
Original lyrics by K2 and the Three:
Hey, how you feeling about love and lust
Hey how you feeling about all the lies you trust
We're here to be clear
Not a walk in the dark

A simple woweluja
Simple halleluja

Wowlelujah  - The Eclectic Collective with Jeff Roberts

Remember those awkward days of our youth? A sort of wasteland of not-quite-adult but not a kid? Testing out style, language, gestures, attitude, hair styles, likes and dislikes, romances, tongue-tied moments of embarrassment. All of these years eventually sorted itself out and we headed out into adulthood, with  more or less determination to be successful. Or was that a fear of being unsuccessful that guided us? Tumultuous times. Awkward.

Lyrics:
The Awkward Squad

    Why don’t you mind your business? Like I mind mine
    Why dontcha get ya finger out? And tap it in time
    Why do you throw a tantrum? And huff and puff away
    And when you’re outa your depth…you simply sail away!

    Who-hoo-hoo…The awkward squad (x2)

    I don’t like to look at you…You make me feel quite queer
    You make me feel uncomfortable… When you sat “Hello       dear”
    I don’t like your haircut…Don’t like your clothes
    Don’t like the way, a dew-drop hangs off your… nose!
    Awk, Awk...The awkward squad

    Awk, Awk…You’re in the awkward squad (x2)

    I dance just like a donkey…A donkey with three legs
    I never look you in the eye…Because it makes me …blush
    I st/st/st/stumble over all my words…Forever full of              shame
    And now I come to look at you…I know you’re just the          same!
    Awkward…The awkward squad

    Awkward…I’m in the awkward squad (x2)

Awkward Squad

No dicen nada.

Tremenda balacera hubo en un barrio.
No se si me da el pico pa contarlo.
Hoy dos gorriones miran para arriba
y se ha reunido a tanta comitiva.

Cuendo pasé ya todos lo sabían.
Caídos dos, ninguno se movía.
Al fierro lo encontraron en el carro.
Ya listo pa tirar algun petardo.

Hoy, quedó un extraño sabor,
no dice nada la radio,
tampoco los diarios, no hay fotos.

Hoy, quedó un extraño sabor.
No dice nada la televisión, ahí tampoco veo notas.
No dicen nada

Sus caras enterradas en el barro.
Algunos dicen que fueron sicarios.
Y otros que  estos pibes ya tenían
alguna vaina con la policia.

Los chicos van llenando sus agujeros.
Con goles en el arco del potrero.
Y saben que la muerte es una espina,
que vive a cada vuelta de la esquina.

Hoy, quedó un extraño sabor,
no dice nada la radio,
tampoco los diarios, no hay fotos.

Hoy, quedó un extraño sabor.
No dice nada la televisión, ahí tampoco veo notas.
No dicen nada.

Nights in White Satin  cover

So near the beginning of 2020, I just lost faith in music and quit. The world changed from a pandemic, and I just didn’t want to do it anymore. In 2022, I started scratching the itch a little bit with synthesizer music that would be soundtrack type stuff and did several collections of songs that nobody will probably ever hear. It was how I began to cope with everything. In 2024, at the lowest I’ve ever felt in my life, I’ve found my way back here…ten years since I started Behold the Sludge…playing…singing…trying to find myself again. 

“Rabbit”

The rabbit is rabid 
Baby, why can’t you see? 
You let down your guard 
And he’s now came to feed 

The rabbit is rabid 
Now, what could it mean? 
Redefining the lines 
Nothing was as it seemed

This betrayal baby 
It’s nothing new 
I knew long ago 
You were rabid too

How many more hares are caught in your snare?

OUT OF THE BOX / IRA LOVESSWEET- Happiness Interlude

The movie Brazil by Terry Gilliam has an important memory in my heart and the lyrics came from that story here the lyrics : 
Punch in an office of boredom 
That outmarchs your identity 
Obvious powers that command you 
Without a bit of humanity.  

Controlled lives by day 
Controlled dreams by night 
Illusion of a total control that will annihilate us.  

Your Angel Grows in you 
Blue eyes that caress you 
Make of you 
The Strength and courage and risk 
That was in you Sweet union always dreamed of 
Lives in you.  

Routine broken cleanly From a desire for freedom 
Madness and blood that threaten you 
From a system of stamped sheets  
Life resurrected from a desire 
Hidden in a corrupt office 
Leviathan greedy for stolen lives 
From a work of sheets and drafts  
Your Angel Grows in you Blue eyes that caress you Make of you.

Lyrics: 

In the morning I need coffee
Sleepy eyes, a dry mouth
My hair stands straight up
I have to wake up
All I need is my coffee

That is all I need
To live, love and breathe..

During the day I need water
And some food, to feel good
With more coffee, in my body
I can continue the work I do

That is all I need
To live, love and breathe..

When it becomes afternoon
I am hungry, need some dinner
And to rest on the sofa
With more coffee to stay awake

That is all I need
To live, love and breathe..

That is all I need
To live, love and breathe..

In the morning I need coffee
Sleepy eyes, a dry mouth
My hair stands straight up
I have to wake up
All I need is my coffee

But in the evening, no more coffee
Just need my baby right beside me
Need some love
Need some heat
Before I close my eyes to sleep

That is all I need
To live, love and breathe...

That Is All I Need

First track of a new album where I'll try to be more eclectic, with closer approach to some genres. Experimented on this one over-editing vocal line on the left, and getting midi files out of organic guitar melodies, which I could play with virtual instruments. I hope you'll enjoy a different Ruizzoid shape.

Dedicated to Germán Coppini’s ‘Golpes Bajos’, one of my favorite groups of the Spanish ‘Nueva Ola’.

Lyrics (original/translated):

NO TODO ACABA (JUGUETES ROTOS)  /  NOT EVERYTHING ENDS (BROKEN TOYS)

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba,  /  Make me think that not everything ends,
hay cosas en la vida que no cambian nada.  /  there are things in life which don’t change at all.
Hazme pensar que no estás gastada,  /  Make me think that you are not worn,
que el paso de los años no te cambió nada.  /  that the passing years didn’t change you at all.

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba.(bis)  /  Make me think that not everything ends. (bis)

Juguetes rotos, muñecas olvidadas,  /  Broken toys, forgotten dolls,
la imagen de mi espejo parece cansada.  /  the image from my mirror seems to be tired.
La voz de la noche ya no me llama,  /  The voice of the night doesn’t call me anymore,
me  resisto a pensar que todo se acaba.  /  I refuse to think that everything ends.

Hazme pensar que lo nuestro no acaba  /  Make me think that our thing doesn’t end
cuando despierte por la mañana.  /  when I wake up in the morning.
Hazme pensar en ti con calma,  /  Make me think about you calmly,
hazme creer que te tengo amarrada.  /  make me think that I get you tied up.

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba.(bis)  /  Make me think that not everything ends. (bis)

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba,  /  Make me think that not everything ends,
hazme creer que aún estoy en casa,  /  make me think that I’m still at home,
hazme pensar que duermo entre sábanas,   /  make me think that I sleep between sheets,
hazme pensar que nada cambia.  /  make me think that nothing changes.

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba.(bis)  /  Make me think that not everything ends. (bis)

No todo acaba (Juguetes rotos)

This is the last one of 44 songs I wrote with my mom’s Spanish guitar in my university years, songs I’ve been arranging and posting to SC for the last 6 years (I’ve skipped 4 of them which will become a conceptual album soon).

I’m so glad to have https://soundcloud.com/janinelevinson’s help on polishing the English texts and lending her vocal and painting arts to such an important song for me.

Also must credit https://soundcloud.com/user-498459842 for kindly and freely mastering the track.
 
CANCIÓN TRISTE CUANDO ESTOY SOLO (SAD SONG WHEN I’M ALONE)

Canción triste cuando estoy solo, para que sepas que yo nunca me iré.
Canción triste por todo lo que amo, último recuerdo de lo que pudo ser.

Sad song when I'm alone, so that you know I will never be gone.
Sad songs for all I love, are the last reminders of my ancient glow.

Do you think that someone somewhere else would ever care that I was here?
Do you think a future living man will give a damn for you and me?
Who could he be?

¿Piensas que a alguien a quien no conocí le importará si estuve aquí,
o no estuve yo?
¿Piensas que alguien que viva después se acordará de ti o de mí?
¿Quién podrá ser?

Canción triste…

¿Piensas que una nueva vida de amor nos bastará para creer,
para sentir?
¿Acaso te importa lo que piense la gente de mis intereses para morir por mí,
para morir por mí?

Do you think another life of love will be enough for us to see,
for us to feel?
Do you care what people really think about my pride, and will you die,
will you die with me?

Sad song…

ANOTHER WORLD

THE DAYS THE WEEKS AND THE YEARS

THE DAYS THE WEEKS AND THE YEARS (see info for video link)

Track shows a very delicate theme and a quite hard-riffed part, both alternating and finally flowing up to an endless symphonic dream (words are half a poem I wrote previously (not these, but lyrics below)).

Letra  /  Translated lyrics:

No despiertes (Sólo un sueño)  /  Don’t you wake up (Only a dream)

No... despierta... no... no despiertes  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up
no, cuidado... no despiertes, na na na na na...  /  no, take care ... don’t you wake up, na na na na na…
... despierta al fin y date cuenta  /  ... wake up at last and realize
de que todo ha sido un sueño, na na na na na...  /  everything has been a dream, na na na na na...

Una vez más, nervios y resentimiento,  /  Once again, nerves and resentment,
todo en mi vida es sueño, sólo ha sido eso.  /  everything in my life is a dream, it has only been so.

Y de nuevo, con el tiempo,  /  And again, with time,
incubando un nuevo sueño,  /  incubating a new dream,
me voy hundiendo en mis propios brazos,  /  I am sinking in my own arms,
me acuno, me canto y me voy acostumbrando...  /  cradle myself, sing to myself and get used...

Otro escenario, otros personajes,  /  Another stage, other characters,
la misma historia, na na na na na...  /  the same story, na na na na na...
que durará un día, un milenio,  /  which will last one day, a millenium,
toda mi vida, na na na na na...  /  all my life, na na na na na...

Pero sin duda vendrán a despertarme  /  But undoubtedly the laughs of people
las risas de la gente, alguna tarde.  /  will come to wake me up, any evening.

Y entonces, con miedo...  /  And then, fearfully...

No... despierta… no… no despiertes (…)  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up (…)

No despiertes (Sólo un sueño)

2:45 is an independent duo formed by Melakki, who writes the lyrics, sings and plays the drums and Boolapp-Goro, who plays the bass guitar, sequences the synthesizers and also is in charge of the artwork. Both were born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Since they met there, they started making music together, traveling and living in some different parts of the world. It wasn't until the year 2018, that they started sharing their music with the world.

Their sound is electronic rock, with a blend of each of their own musical tastes and influences mainly combining psychedelic rock with several electronic music genres.
They grew up listening and loving music from Syd Barrett, The Doors, Lou Reed, Jimmy Hendrix, Nirvana, Brian Eno, Peter Gabriel, Einstürzende Neubauten, Nine Inch Nails, Aphex Twin, Joy Division, Sumo and Fela Kuti among others conforming an extensive list.

In these past years they focused in listening, discovering and connecting with other great indie artists. A loving and supportive community of independent musicians and artists, fans, radio hosts, curators, DJs and producers emerged stronger than ever during these 'pandemic times'. Many of these artists also described 2:45's music saying that it contained elements of indie rock, shoegaze, post-punk, indie pop, world music and kraut rock.
