🎶please FOLLOW me for NEW releases😊...... It's all about eXPrEs$iOn...this is part of my 20 year legacy portfolio (under DJ aliases) of live mixes (including vinyl) to make the classics live again!..my music style comes from blending sounds that normally wouldn’t live in the same space or time - I love taking familiar groove tracks and reimagining them with new energy, whether that’s through creative sampling, stems, splice, correct key, loops, adding subtle beats, unexpected transitions, or layering vocals over completely different instrumentals - see my track list here: https://soundcloud.com/ch_risk_1   I hope you enjoy the vibes and please share it across all generations, so everyone can join in my New Groove! 🎶 💞  a big Thank You to Pioneer, Rekordbox, Albleton and Remix live, who provide all my beats 🥁and also all the original artists. Where would DJs be without you and where would artists be without DJs🙌

ROAD TRIP

Californian road

conscious insecure defence
pushes hair out her chin
acne out her skin
headache from walking in this space
your effulgence drew me out
my existence is all about 
incarnation as the sound

Epitaph (for Theo Calis 1960 - 2020)

Martin Hoogeboom: guitar/loop station
Marlon Wolterink: mastering

Theo and I have worked on countless music projects over the past 40 years. I have learned a lot from his stubborn and headstrong views and methods of recording and mixing music. His influence on my soundscapes is immense. In 2014 we both enjoyed working on “Where Do We Go From Here?” (2014 - Etched Traumas - ET77) which became also part of the soundtrack of Australian short movie “Grid Face”. Pieces for acoustic guitar and loop station.

In 2017 I worked on a sequel, the guitar suite "Licht". 
“Epitaph (for TC)” is originally a demo version of one of the pieces but unused in the “Licht” version as it appeared on CD (2018 “LIght / Well” - Thirsty Leaves Music - TLM019). Due to Theo’s health problems it was not possible to collaborate on this project but he appreciated the sober minimal guitar pieces for what they were.

I will remember Theo with great respect for the rest of my life.

Epitaph (for TC)

Shifting sax and floaty flute played by Jonathan Ogara (https://soundcloud.com/allopenelectrics)
For a solo, live, acoustic version see: https://youtu.be/IPTSFz0ap1c

It’s a time of the sighs and the lies on the radio
Dumbing down
It’s a sign of the times and the crimes of the bully boys
Lost in all that noise, with their dangerous toys
Shifting sands, shifting sands, camouflage guilty hands
Do the straw man, law man, flag man, bogey man
Fooling fools
Salesmen, pale men, stale mediocrities
Riding the wave of faith, nothing’s safe

Strive all your life, take the long road to understand
Knowledge base
You can search and research, learn the lessons from the history
They believe the mouth instead
The mouth in the empty head

Shifting Sands (a C÷M track)

Grieving

Verse 1:
It seemed all so perfect
Our lives just clicked
Everywhere I went
Is what was meant (to be)

We did so much
Were so in touch
What a joy was our life
You were to be my wife

Chorus 1:
I never hurt you
I didn’t do
Anything wrong
I spent all my love on you

Verse 2:
Then one day
The skies were grey
You said you were leaving
And I started grieving

Chorus 2 & 3:
You hurt me so
I’m not your beau
It is all wrong
All my love is gone

Verse 3:
Why are you leaving me
Never to bend my knee
Why is it you don’t want me
You take off an flee

I hurt so much inside
You will never be my bride
This pain cannot be happening
It is all so baffling
