For me music is all about the emotion and this track grabbed me immediately, and you sustain it, really good in all its simplicity.

A great title and music more than doing it justice......

Beautifully performed. Poignant piece 🔥🔥🔥

LIVE at the Brunswick in Brighton just before Christmas, a mobile phone recording but it captured the mood. So good to play live again!!!!

A rain dance for the bush fires
A sun dance for the floods
A war dance for anyone    
Who doesn’t give a fuck

It’s murder on earth’s dance floor
We may never dance again
It’s time to pick up that dam phone
If you’re a ’Strictly’ fan

It's murder on earth’s dance floor
 t's murder on earth’s dance floor

A shoot out at the oil coral
Sundance at my side
You know that he can bust a move
And he can  jive

Dance like no one’s watching
Dance so full of love
Dance those socks till they come off
Take off those kid gloves

It's murder on earth’s dance floor
It's murder on earth’s dance floor
It's murder on earth’s dance floor
It's murder on earth’s dance floor

Instrumental

Gonna  move your feet, gonna eat less meat
This dance floor needs repair
if ya wanna lift that glitter ball
Dance like Fred Astaire

and dance like no one’s watching
Dance with so much love
Dance those socks till they come off
Take off those kid gloves

It’s murder on earth’s dance floor
It’s murder on earth’s dance floor
It's murder on earth’s dance floor
It's murder on earth’s dance floor

Instrumental

A rain dance for the bush fires
A sun dance for the floods
A war dance for anyone    
Who doesn’t give a fuck

It’s murder on earth’s dance floor
We may never dance again
It's time to pick up that dam phone
If you're a Strictly fan

It's murder on earth's dance floor
It's murder on earth's dance floor
It's murder on earth's dance floor
It's murder on earth's dance floor

Squidly doot, snidely dat, hot dam

In the Land of Autumn

This was a straight forward melody I wrote some years back which I’ve never wrapped up until I came across the famous poem “The Road Not Taken” few years ago.  I found that with very minor changes, the poem fit perfectly into my melody.  So the result is this song here which I now call it “Two Roads”.
Let me know what you think & thanks for stopping by.

[LYRICS]
Two roads diverged in a wood
Sorry I could not travel both
Be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could

Took the other just as fair
It was grassy and wanted wear
Had worn them about the same
And having perhaps the better claim


(Chorus)
And both that morning equally lay
I kept the first for another day
In leaves no step had trodden black
I doubted if I should (ever) come back


I'll be telling this with a sigh
Two roads diverged in a wood and I
Took the one less traveled by
And guess that has made all the differences

Instrumental

Repeat Chorus

Both that morning equally lay
I kept the first for another day
In leaves no step had trodden black
I doubted if I should ever come back

Knowing how way leads on to way

Two Roads

I like many am shocked and appalled at what is unfolding before us. In the midst of this darkness I salute the people who are opening their hearts and offering assistance to the refugees from this disastrous conflict.

Here are some UK links to appeals providing humanitarian aid. I'm sure each country has equivalent appeals happening now.

Empathy For The Agony

This song is about a drifter who roles into ghost town where he sees shadows silhouette of people from a long time ago. He thinks that they are real and experiences an evening of southern hospitality that includes a bottle of bourbon whisky. It's when he wakes up in the morning that he thinks if it was all in his head....Were they just visions he had in that ghost town. The deeper meaning to the song is that we live in a world we think is real, formed by our experiences and influenced by the environment. However, there may come a time when we wake up to the reality as it really is. Life is formed around ghosts and sillouettes who can influence our behaviour. As Marcus Aurelius once words are opinions not facts....or in the modern era....wake up and taste the coffee.

Lyrics: 
The tumbleweed roles down a dusty boardwalk
In a ghost town in New Mexico
Shadows silhouette in the evening sun
Of people from a long time ago
As the moon rises on the horizon
A drifter rides in. You could tell where he’s been
After days on the road feeling saddle sore
All he could think “I need a cool drink.
I need a good woman and more”.

There was southern hospitality he’d never seen before
They welcomed him into the local bar
With a bottle of bourbon and a home cooked meal
He felt like a movie star. 
Soon the bottle was dry 
His head rolled back, and he closed his eyes
Few have walked in the drifter’s shoes
He’d crossed many lines so many times 
Life could be good to a few.

Well, the mist fell down on the old ghost town
As he closed his eyes and fell asleep
It’s more than in his head
It’s more than what he thought and said- skin deep

The drifter he woke on the morning sunrise
He turned and opened his eyes
Looking through the haze of an empty glass
He saw to his surprise
The bar was empty, not a soul in sight
He raised to his feet then looked down the street
He was on his own felt shivers to his bones
Was it all in his mind? Was it all in his head?
Were they visions he had in that ghost town?

One thousand miles from Texas

The drifter

The Drifter

The wolf is a magnificent, disturbing and fascinating animal. 
At night the wolf sleeps and dreams of his pack of which he is the leader.
But the day came when he had to give way to someone younger and stronger than him. He became the lone wolf who dreams, a dream so powerful that it can be heard as far as the moon...

A Wolf's Dream

THE SECRET OF REASON.

=================================

Some political events in my country during the year 2017 inspired this composition. I wanted it to be kind of hard and melodic at the same time. The base of the melody is a strong electronic harp

23 native instrument tracks from Music Studio and forum Xewton, and one track from kv331.

Made in 2017, mixed, edited in my car (Parked...) and composed on ipad (ipad mini, in this case).

Remixed and re-edited July 2022.

All the percussions of this theme and all the others are programmed without the use of preset samples. They are composed using each percussive sound independently on a track-by-track basis.

Thanks for listening and commenting.

Paco.

We're late starters, hence the name.  Andy started playing and learning how to use a DAW to keep distracted during the covid lockdown, while Helen finally realised a long held ambition to have a go at singing, and is now both writing and performing.
We love the community on Soundcloud, where we can share our music with like minded souls.
