Listening Post: Batch 531

On The Back Foot

‘The Man at the Party’ a striking alt hip hop dialogue between B and one of ‘those’ guys at a party…
You know the fella. Kinda offended by a woman having the temerity to disagree/ correct him/ have her own opinion. It’s a confrontation and catharsis in song form!

The Man at the Party

Tangled is a guitar-driven love song about the all-consuming passion of a romantic relationship, laced with the underlying question, ‘Is this too good to be true?’

CHEATER feat. St3v3L33

This is another fun toon which I hope will get you boppin a bit. It's some tongue in cheek rock n roll / cowpunk relationship counselling from legendary Aussie band the Beasts of Bourbon. Written by guitarist Kim Salmon.

I used my new parlour guitar to play this one. I was quite happy with the jangly chords which I think really suit the tune.

Leave Me Now

Two guys writing and recording remotely because events have conspired to keep them many miles apart. For now.

The Privacy Of Rooms (Radio Edit) - Master

It's about time we left Chomolungma to be the holy place she is. It's about time we started caring for nature again.

Based on this poem:

Billions of heartbeats beneath
Her ribs. The granite cage of birth
From under the sea up
And away.

So hard to let go, 
To open up and allow new
Breath amid the schists
And gneisses in the half-mists.

Limestone marks her own
Heart, the beating slow and frozen,
Here at the top, and choking
From the mess her children
Make of her and the world.

She barely remembers
Being a goddess mother,
How she emerged from the ocean
Carrying hope in her braided
Hair, so white now,
Streaming from her in plumes.

Rest awhile, just to gather
Enough strength to stop
Conceiving
To start
Believing
Again, in the art
Of sanctity.

Beneath her ribs.
Beneath her.
Beneath.
