Name: Reverse Osmosis by Alan Hamilton
Duration: 5 min 33 s
Description: 'Reverse Osmosis' A Jazz Fusion track inspired by the process of cleaning up water, bringing it to a state of "purity" and allowing it to be drunk in safety. And so it is with a composition and recording. The production being the "Reverse Osmosis" bringing the recorded piece to a state of listening "safety". Which hopefully is a healthy experience for the 'consumer' of both.

Definetly a safe process to listen to this, I like it.

Cool stuff again. And what an overwhelming output!

again, really strong drum & perc stuff throughout, especially at the intro to each section. nice arrangement, just like a live performance giving various their solo moment. bravo!!

Health restored Alan. Pretty much after the first swig of the first bar.

Glad I'm invited by my friend Hendrik aka https://soundcloud.com/cosmic-ratzzz to join this track, which can eventually provide a better "Monday Feeling" ;-) TY Mr Ratzzz ! <3

Poem by Emily Brontë (30 July 1818 – 19 December 1848)
It`s been a privilege making this song with Oddrun and Dairv.

The result of this collaboration is bigger than I could wish for.
When I wrote the instrumental for the song I had a vision of life reaching for the light, like  dew in the early morning`s  that makes life sprout
With Emely`s poem, Oddrun`s crystal clear warm voice and Dairv`s intense guitar we are right where we want to be.

The battle had passed from the height,
And still did evening fall;
While heaven with its restful night
Gloriously canopied all.

The dead around were sleeping
On heath and granite grey,
And the dying their last watch were keeping
In the closing of the day.
·⁠·⁠·⁠·⁠·
How golden bright from earth and heaven
The summer day declines!
How gloriously o'er land and sea
The parting sunbeam shines!
There is a voice in the wind that waves
Those bright rejoicing trees.
·⁠·⁠·⁠·⁠·
Not a vapour had stained the breezeless blue,
Not a cloud had dimmed the sun,
From the time of morning's earliest dew
Till the summer day was done.

And all as pure and all as bright
The sun of evening died,
And purer still its parting light
Shone on Lake Elnor's tide

Morning`s Earliest Dew. Oddrun Eikli, Dairv Dubbleyew, Torbjørn Vagle

Synth impro from the night - I just wanted to make a quick and easy piece and its nostalgic vibe reminded of Tokyo, which I was lucky to visit 5 years ago.

Undertow is an original song that tells a story by making an analogy between being taken away by a surprising, frightening ocean undertow and being wonderfully saved by a surprising, relentless love. This is another project that started with a simple live recording that Nat then fashioned into a more polished final outcome.

Lyrics: Undertow by Daniels & Durgy

I never saw it coming
The water seemed so calm
Into the surf I’m running
Let the waves just cool me down

But as the sea became me
Rocked gently to and fro
There came this rush to claim me
This playful undertow

I leaned well against it
My head turned toward the sun
But soon the current strengthened
And I was going down

No matter how I struggled
The mighty depths insisted
Soon I had no rebuttal 
My will ceased to resist it

And as I let it claim me
Pulled down deep into the foam
A calmness overcame me
With the feeling I was home

I looked to see my fate there
Perhaps I’d met my end
Instead I found your face there
An angel and my friend

And as we both just floated
To rise up to the air
I knew at once God wrote it
That you would save me there

I fought it like a soldier
As the waters turned
But as the sea grew colder
I’d no where else to turn

You sang the song of sea birds
That you would not let me go
And now your love needs no words
This mighty undertow

Lyrics

I just wanted to get out of the house for a day or two
I got my little backpack out of the closet
and put It on
put my thumb out on the road
and I was gone
And the next thing that I know
I'm standing In the middle of new Mexico
one thousand miles and two months down the line
Along a two lane blacktop ln the desert sun-
A bus A bus
with a destination of infinity
comes by and stops right ln front of me
and as l board, l begin to spout a verse of poetry that l know nothing about
and lt does not belong to me
ln someone else's voice
l did not seem to have a choice--

(The poem, by Jo Rlchter)
------
To feed the foodless
you require fire
but how do you nourish
those wanting a mind of their own?
do you mess up their lives
with Olympian lre
or serve them a dish
of the altered kind-
The old one who spoke made pause dramatic
then asked the question
ln a very low voice
or would you invoke
an old myth cathartic
to force into action
To colour each cholce
The divine assembly
all nodded their chins
and sald "Sanat Kumara"
you've got what lt takes
We'll teach some Hag ln Albuquerque
The ropes of how the dumplings begins
and these guys will come from near and far
to taste the wondrous dish she makes
------
Stu sald: Turn this Bus around
we're Albuquerque Bound
This guy just sald
there's a dumpling cooking ln that town
You may ask why some of us are looking for another paradigm
Trying to stop the world for just a moment
searching quietly as l think
Pessimism ls completely underrated
lt's lt's own worst enemy
as emotions go
There's just the wind ln the windows
Remlnlcent of distant overlapping chatter
of souls that came before and after
as we're all staring ln disbelief
at the panorama through the Stink

New Mexico(As we're just Starin)- from "The Quest for the Holy Dumpling"#5 --The Smoklng Trout

Mixing it up a little again with some funk fusion.  The photo was taken in New York City's famed Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village.

Thanks as always for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares.  This one's for Tyler and Mike

Pyrrhic Victory - Πύρρειος Νίκη

Mind in Motion is music for minds that never stand still.
From one restless mind to another – every track is built to turn chaos into focus.
Nu Jazz meets djent guitar, microtonality, polyrhythms, and cultural influences from around the globe. No song stays the same for long – tempos, rhythms, and harmonies keep shifting so your brain always finds something new.

This album is an infinite loop: the last notes flow straight back to the beginning. Perfect for getting into the flow – to work, think, feel, or just drift away.

From soft moments of calm to explosive hyperfocus surges – Mind in Motion is a soundtrack for the ADHD mind that knows offbeat is also a beat, and that “crazy” is often just another word for “creative.”

From one restless mind to another. ADHD to Focus.

Now retired from a life 'on the road' as a freelance keyboard player, I compose and record in my home studio, situated in the Carrick Hills in Southern Scotland. My music is mainly instrumental in nature and is a reflection of my life experience, sometimes real and sometimes imagined.
My influences are many and I have quite probably been shaped by listening to the very many "giants" of music, both players and composers. From classical to contemporary jazz and everything in between. My main instrument is the keyboard, whether that be piano, organ or synth. But I also play banjo, flute and percussion. I have a special relationship'with bass, whether upright or electric and use virtual and synth basses from numerous sources, but mainly Trilian by Spectrasonics.
