im not great at singing, and can rarely be bothered to do second takes so hopefully the imperfections make it endearing?

clouds

withering hope,
steps on cushioned petals
bound to fill pavement gutters,
scentless and soundless debris,
all that will come to be
- they'll lift in time -
scattered by summers breeze,
dancing shadows behind the orange curtain glow.

bandcamp link

all 'my grey leaving'

lyrics were supposed to be for Thoughts On Spring (there is a version with them) but i got distracted and made this at 1-2am. also no instruments other than the vocals themselves sampled, also dont know if its it pitch but whatever

sky looks bad on a long day,
havent seen your face since last week,
and it looks like it might rain,
and a smile might be all there is to gain

and if you said it so, at least it then would make things clear
but if you said it so, it might be things that i fear

dont know how you feel about me,
wish there's some kind of sign you'd give me,
and the rain starts to fall(pour) on my face,
and theres some kind of feeling i cant place

but please make it clearer
so please make it clearer

and if you said it so, at least it then would make things clear
but if you said it so, it might be things that i fear

Make It Clear

all that will come to be

scentless and soundless debris

bound to fill pavement gutters

dancing shadows behind the orange curtain glow

a cover of one of my favourite mogwai songs - this version is without drums
here's the version with: https://soundcloud.com/binthorn/r-u-still-in-2-it-cover?si=76b88cf0239a4078a80b6d3adc81443b&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

r u still in 2 it (mogwai cover, no drums)

i almost wish

to another ending

wind bound (extended)

a simple cover of a Roy Montgomery song - well, the lyrics that is - theyre not the right chords or key (and even then the words not right haha, for some reason I heard it as ‘poem’ instead of ‘cold’ - but I like how it sounds anyway)

i was trying to learn the tab for red house painters 'grace cathedral park' and got distracted

heres the noisier demo version; https://soundcloud.com/binthorn/rec-20250124-18h01m44s-just-melacholy-rough/s-kry34MnTO5B?si=aeba44ae4c4347ae9a939c403860f850&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

just melancholy (roy montgomery cover)

mistress (rough red house painters cover)

dark ascent

non-layered version (just the voice memo from phone): https://soundcloud.com/binthorn/make-me-know-me/s-NelwbQO8asn?si=e51601b858644168a0c0254f20ecbe3c&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

i was singing but listening back it just sounds like humming, think its just the mic quality

these are not the words explicity as i usually write after:

and ill throw it away,
and ill throw it away,
see it flowing away
ive not grown into it
make this land reach me

im not whole yet
i still stow it away
is it trying to breach me?

im not holy
theres no whole to me
make me whole 
completely
show me how to reach this.

Ill not throw it away,
Ill not throw it away,
make me holy (teach me how to give)
please just hold me (teach me how to live)
please just hold me (ive so much to give)
please just know me (theres so much to live)

make me know me (teach me)

(blossoms and pollen, people are crying, people are sneezing)
2 track improvised guitar, loren connors airs inspired

something in the air

this is almost a month old, but hadnt got round to making it public. made from field recordings, synth, unplugged electric guitar - most of the sound comes from convolution reverbs using the field recordings as impulse responses (thats what is creating the harmonic resonance)

greenwich park

based on a voice memo ive put on here, and inspired by the red house painters song 'moments' (in particular the hard panned guitar parts)

(fallen tree instrumental demo)

made from sampled vocals and a field recording

when the clouds break through
every rose turns blue
curved to shapes of you
gently falls into

every violent scream 
from the winding stream
turns my lips to blue
trembing next to you

when the tide comes in
my heart bleeds within
the setting sun turns blue
glow surrounding you

blue sun

heres a private version of the same track with less reverb: https://soundcloud.com/binthorn/songformaria-m2/s-dRfWoq1X8Hj?si=c2c37304e9244d36ba5b562e6aba6fde&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

song for maria

murmured

arranging stones into a circle

respite

towards the forest

alternative mix of https://soundcloud.com/binthorn/entombed?in=binthorn/sets/signpost/s-1fZuB05r1ZB&si=92532931cdcc4caea3f3ddfe8c0eecd6&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

entombed (field)

ace of cups

leaning sign

you will miss me when i burn (palace music cover)

awaiting unread

suzanne (take 02 - dying rain)

suzanne (take 01 - storm)

Im going to be moving some things around soon so tracks might disappear

i think ill probably keep the 'my grey leaving' ambient-shoegaze stuff here and move the other demos and random stuff (as bin/thorn) over to Nina as it has unlimited upload space, and has free streaming

my grey leaving & bin/thorn
