Based on the original instrumental 'Bluestronic' by Kelvyn Taylor https://soundcloud.com/kelvynt/blooz-1
Kelvyn kindly allowed me to take his original acoustic guitar piece  and make it into the something else that I was hearing (with my one good ear). Assembling a grand cast of Soundcloud musicians, all fantastic in their own right, each one helped to shape the final collage. The turnaround for this was astoundingly rapid. Ah, the beauty of Soundcloud. Please give  them all a listen and a follow.

GUIDES - words by Tanisha Jackland

We channel them by wading
In the waters of sleep

Until they discover us in those depths,
out from opacity,
doused in heavy scent of lucid hopes.
Steering us away from the shallows of docile minds
and fractured egos

They command this realm of slumber,
whispering as gentle as the
moon’s waft voice, routes to
more suitable  lives

They meet us in corners of
spatial thought, then
purge the shadows that anchor us
while kissing our most embedded secrets

They will unite us
One dream at a time

Neighborhood Watch

This track all started with the bass guitar and I built everything else around it. 
I wanted to keep the track as raw as possible with two guitars, bass and drums. 
I called it Serpentine because the bass is weaving and pulsing throughout the track.

Guitars used:
Yamaha Revstar Standard, P90's (left speaker)
Gibson Les Paul Studio (right speaker)
Fender Precision Bass (centre)

Plugins used:
Guitars - Neural DSP Mesa Boogie MKIIC+ Suite
Bass - Line 6 Helix Native 
Drums programmed using EZ Drummer 3

Serpentine

not my usual kind of music but i just love how misterious it sounds

My Strange Night Stories

"Not all who wander are lost." -- J.R.R. Tolkien

We all wander at one time or another.  Sometimes, it leads us to wonderful discoveries.  At other times, it can take us away from the things and people in life that are truly important.  One thing is certain:  Wandering almost always teaches us something.

SHAKE THE TEMPLE AND SHAME THE SUN

Let’s name names and take the blame as an act of christian charity
Make a play for the right way
It’s pretty but it’s scary
And then just drive
Take a long ride
Pack a bag
It’ll take some time
Sirens wail and we’re not slowing, never knowing what’s around the corner
Fortune favors the bold, My Love, might as well floor it
It’s gonna be all right
We got the second sight
Taste the air
It’s alive
And faster we fly...
It’s a revolution, but a small one
Liberation, one by one
Evolution into something
Shake the temple and shame the sun
Let’s name names and take the blame as an act of christian charity
Make a play for the right way
It’s pretty but it’s scary
And then just drive
Take a long ride
Pack a bag
It’ll take some time
And faster we fly...
It’s a revolution, but a small one
Liberation, one by one
Evolution into something
Shake the temple and shame the sun

DEBUT ALBUM RELEASED ON SEJA/CANDY BOMBER MUSIC: https://sejarecords.bandcamp.com/album/gig-economy
Formerly known as The Inconsistent Jukebox. I have been exclusively recording as m1nk with Erika Bach (lola demo) for the past 4 years and put the TIJ stuff on hold for a while. In between the next m1nk release we are both releasing solo material. Watch this space for previews of the new stuff.
New single out 31st October -  'SIng Me Something SInister'. Taken from the forthcoming debut solo album 'Gig Economy'. WATCH VIDEO HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4ZhwYgG6M8
You can also follow my current and future work with Erika Bach (as m1nk) here: https://soundcloud.com/m1nk and http://www.m1nk.com

I've had the very good fortune and honour to associate my own music here on SC with some truly astounding  and generous graphic & surrealist artists: Smiler Street Art (London) https://www.facebook.com/smilerstreetart/, Eric Lacombe (France) http://www.ericlacombe.com/home.php, Belgian surrealists Mothmeister https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/mothmeister. Please do look at their work, you won't be disappointed. Stay here and listen a while first though.
I'm also finding other amazing stuff here on Soundcloud that I would have never heard elsewhere, a few of them I've had the pleasure to collaborate with.: Heidi Harris, Konokunok, Narcisse Noyé, Dolll, Richard Devine, Joaquin Mendoza, Vasco Morais, Keldari Station, Musicaserj, & Cathrinta, Luciole Langevine, Renaud Deback, Lola Demo, Anda Volley, Ang Kerfoot, Dana Dau, Chris Pendergraft, Faerytale and many more. I could go on (and usually do). Check them out, you won't hear their like in many other places. 
Also look out for my playlists here on Soundcloud which feature other artists: 'Favourites From The Cloud', 'Soundscapes'  and 'The Siren, She Sings' (which also has a blog). You may even be in one of them.

Thanks to Isaac for my (full) name. Check out his eerie upload, https://soundcloud.com/aminimalvirus/inconsistent-jukebox. Genius. It crept up on me late one night (one of those tracks that you didn't select but came on in someone else's stream) and I genuinely thought I was going mental. When you hear it you'll see what I mean.

Keep breathing. Stay creative. Be original.

I am not a musician but music plays a very important role in my creative life! I am an artist/designer and music is my companion and my muse in the long hours I spend working in my studio! 
I am immensely impressed and grateful for all the talented and inspiring musicians whose work graces this Cloud, and I will always re-post sounds that I love (and will listen to again) - knowing that others will enjoy them!
I feel slightly embarrassed and quite humbled when I receive such graceful messages of thanks from artists whose work I have re-posted - after-all, I am the one who is so inspired by the discovery of your brilliant music!!!
So thank YOU!!!
Jools :)
P.S. If you want to see where the music takes me there is a link to my Portfolio site on Behance below!!! 
NEW!! - Thanks for all the great feed-back on my work! I shall be re-launching with a website (shop & archive) ‘KULT-JE’ in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, examples of past and current work are featured on my Instagram (@joolselphick)
Since my heart op in Jan2021, I have had to deal with taking quite a lot of meds which have interrupted my design work - that and moving to Germany in 2020 - and back in 2021 (due to Covid my business plans stalled!) - SO, slowly getting it together…. hang tight!😊

I have an archive of my work to date on Instagram - @joolselphick
