Atom The Hero

Simple chord progression done with rnb 101 guitar playing. Begins with harmonica bend. Vocal delivery mostly on the beat making it more suitable for folk.  A dorian for the ‘going on slowly’ prechorus. The chorus goes from G to D/F# cos’ I wanted a nice bass movement and it also gives it a borrowed chord. I get to play with loud soft dynamics within the chorus and being true to the subject matter ‘pls take what little I have to offer’ is given a minimalist treatment with only vox and guitar. So you have the fierceness of ‘at all’ which is done in almost the same style as ‘give it all’ by Rise Against. The sitar ( only fake instrument) plays a Khamaj raga which is Mixlodyian mode. Know it fucks with the groove but I had to be true to subject matter. Also handpan which is a Christmas gift. Chord progression goes to G which is the key of the bridge. Some superimposition on piano for bridge. G7 which leads to back to Am for deceptive cadence. Ended making the beginning each phrase on the half of each bar. Piano is playing D throughout. Also played with A and C but they didn’t sound as nice. Not since Hurt by Johnny Cash has a single note been milked so hard. Almost EDM drops in the song so I could have turned it into folktronica. Adlibs for the final chorus were done in one take so the length of the final ‘peace’ is random. Can hold a note for longer than that but it's improvised. 

Lyrically, it is a love song/tribute to my fave novel Shantaram. When asked, about my fave song or fave movie I have a list. But fave novel-there’s only one that has brought me inner peace. I was given it by Indian bassist in uni during my first exp as frontman. It manages to be both a page turner and also has a constant mood of inner peace. Great lines as well as great romance between author and Karla. Still a much better love story than Twilight. In that respect the song isn’t too faithful cos it’ mood isn’t ‘constant inner peace.’ There are ‘explosions’ in song. The Indians called the protagonist Shantaram-which means ‘a man of gods peace.’ Not religious but have respect for religion.


I ain’t got no time
I ain’t got nowhere to go (improvised. Dunno what it means)
Ani auni vevyone. Hashem yashav li (first line is a slight melodic variation of refuge by matisyahu. Live at Stubbs. It’s taken from the Psalm of David and is in Hebrew/Yiddish. Second line is directly taken. I’m told he pronounces it too strongly but it helps with the singing that way.)
You lay my refuge down like Atlantis to the sea ( giving props to Matisyahu and also Donovan.)
Going slowly Going on slowly Going on slowly ey.


Chorus
I am mistaken for your love 
Oh rest assured I mean you no harm at all (some contradiction here. Go with the second line).
Please take what little I have to offer
No it ain’t’ much 
But it’s all I got you see
To be a man of God’s peace (Shantaram)
 a man of Gods peace (you know how the comments section for ‘Starboy’ is 来个鸡蛋。Lai ge ji dan. which means give me an egg. It's what Chinese people think look what you've done sounds like. Couldn’t unheard it for a while. For this, it’s 妈的尬屁。Which means ‘your mother’s awkward fart.’ 

Verse 2:
Defined by what we can endure
Not by what we can inflict  (A line from the novel. Paraphrased)
I chase the sunset down
With the colors of my wit (a lot of drinking goes on in the novel. Also a lot of colors)
Going on slowlyy going on slowly

Bridge:

I am the mountains that tear through the wind. (Taken from folk song 1 that I wrote. Was the chorus of that song but I didn’t like how it ended so now it’s a bridge. It is similar to, “when they tell you you’re not enough you tell them you are more than enough”- queen of wakanda. ) Also pretty badass vibes which fits the author of Shantaram.
I am the pain that shatters the glass
I am vicious when I am cut, I am delicious and a nut (the improvised lyrics were better than the ones that I focused on writing for the 1st song so I kept these)


Shantaram

Louder than Silence
Lyrics:
There's nothing louder than this silence.
Oh, what a forceful mess of nothing at all.
Like I've been ripped out of reality.
Somehow, my mind became an enemy.
And in this limbo, nothing works anymore
Except for the booze.
I still get pissed on my booze.

Nothing is louder than your silence.
There's nothing sweeter than your face.
Nothing more violent than your footsteps in the snow leading to that place where you spend the nights
Still, I hope that he treats you right.
And that you're doing well.
If I could ask for one thing in life
I'd send him straight to hell.
And you as well.

I should apply myself and fight this head-on.
Muster some willpower and go by the rules.
Just by following this simple plan
I would come out of it a better man.
If simple plans worked as solutions for me
don't you think I would be
A better man already?

No force may hold a candle to love that is lost.
Enslaves your mind and breaks your heart every time.
Until the very last drop
Drains you of all that you got.
Love conquers all—when it's lost

There's nothing louder than your absence.
Nothing was sweeter than your face.
How vioilent footsteps can make anger take controll non of us did know, until that night 
Last sign of you I`ll ever know
Is melting with the snow
If could ask for one thing in life
-...
I'm sorry, hun.

no man may  hold a candle to love when its lost.
Enslaves his mind and breaks his heart with brute force.
Reality squashed.
Right and wrong, tossed.
When love conquers all—all is lost.

Louder than Silence

En la otra orilla

En la orilla del dolor
sólo tienen frustración
y el anhelo de un mundo mejor.

En la orilla del placer
todo es poco hasta ser
el más fuerte y el que tenga el poder.

Estribillo

Desde la orilla se ve el fulgor
de la riqueza aupada en neón
que nutre la fe y la ilusión.
Todos se echan a la mar
porque piensan que tendrán
por fin un lugar para soñar.

----------------------

No se entiende que huir
del infierno es seguir
el instinto de sobrevivir.

Estribillo

Y se tienen que aguantar
si los quieren explotar
los mismos que los quieren echar.

On the other shore

On the shore of pain
they only have frustration
and the longing for a better world.

On the shore of pleasure
everything is too little until you are
the strongest and the one who has the power.

Chorus

From the shore you can see the glow
of wealth boosted in neon
that nourishes faith and illusion.
Everyone sets out to sea
because they think they will
finally have a place to dream.

----------------------

It is not understood that fleeing
from hell is following
the instinct to survive.

Chorus

And they have to put up with
if they want to exploit them
the same people who want to throw them out.

En la otra orilla (Feat. Hugo Iglesias Olmos)

Esta canción es un grito musical contra la incertidumbre y la corrupción que vivimos en las instituciones y en la política en nuestro país hace pocos años. ¡Suban el volumen y que esta canción resuene con fuerza!

Y'a des grillons qui crient tout autour de moi
De l'eau coule si fraîche le long de mes bras
Je vois la lune sourire à travers les arbres
Et un feu d'artifice, explosion de couleurs
Explosion de joie avec toi, Oksana

J'entends les lucioles, elles me parlent de toi
Je garde les yeux fermés pour mieux te regarder
L'eau est un peu froide mais tu me souris
Le sable dans ma bouche m’empêche de parler
Mais tu es là avec moi, Oksana

Oh Oksana, viens plus près de moi
Viens on va danser on va chanter pour oublier
Oh Oksana, viens plus près de moi
On va rêver que c'est encore l'été et que tout çà n'est pas vrai

Les grillons se sont tus, je n'entends plus la nuit
Je repense à nous deux dans les champs infinis
J'ai de plus en plus froid et j'ai peur de dormir
Tout mon corps est gelé et j'ai mal quand je respire
Serre moi dans tes bras, Oksana

Oh Oksana, viens plus près de moi
Viens on va danser on va chanter pour oublier
Oh Oksana, viens plus près de moi
On va rêver que c'est encore l'été et que tout çà n'est pas vrai

OKSANA (ft. Tamago☆)

Saline is Dead Hazards' debut LP featuring 13 songs that play with themes like disillusionment and detachment and hold sounds ranging from raw sludge to rock-operatic passages. Saline brings a mixture of fuzz, colliding melodies, and low strings wrapped in melancholy, with a nod to 80s-90s heavy metal and alternative. 

Rerouting

Josh had a grade which had John and Vic. John was a stereotypical Hollywood bully.  Josh:”he was an idiot.
Me: did you know that Vic used to give Swerlies? I didn’t even know what they were.
Swerlies are when you flush a kids head down a toilet.
Josh: he was a bigger idiot.

Then moving onto the grade below Josh which was my grade which had 006.  006 began causing teachers to cry as early as primary school in 芳草地。There was LX, a girl from HK who he tripped on the way to the blackboard. Her nose landed on the ridge of the incline and broke. So she had to go back to HK for reconstructive facial surgery. 006 tells me this story with a gleeful look on his face. Now you’re thinking he’s a sociopath. Then, he says, “that’s why I took it easy on her at 55.” I’m thinking “phew.” Then there was that time he made Starlight cry by putting his dick on her face while she was asleep. A typical day at 55 for 006 involved him coming up with new ways to trip people at lunch. A typical weekend for him involved him calling the girl with the best grades and asking her if she wanted to fuck him.  I started in class 3 which was mostly Korean. It’s the 3rd worst class out of 4. 

I learned quickly that I could tell jokes and make people laugh. We got along and they taught me swear words. The Koreans were a united front. Meaning, only them and the Mongolians ever did group stompings of people. We…the Chinese whatever…be it Chinese American or whatever or the groups that spoke English couldn’t unite to save…anything. I remember walking up the stairs one day and a group of Koreans were just kicking my friend while he was on the ground. My other friend and I just laughed at him and I asked, “what did you do to them?” For some reason I was never beat up or made fun of.

Closest was in grade 7 where the door locked and 2 Korean girls approached me. I thought I was gonna get snuffed until one of them started touching my face while the other tried removing my shirt. I just ran. Koreans all over the world: If we wanted to snuff you we’d send 10 guys and not 2 girls you moron.
So I got promoted to class 2. Was sad to leave my 2 English speaking friends in class 3. I was afraid. Class 2 was 006’s kingdom. He sat in the back and made fun of people all day long. It was the first time I had been in classes where a student had all the power. And…nothing happened to me. 10 years later, I asked him,
“Why’d you never pick on me?”
“因为你嘴太损了” (You were too snarky)
Class 2 had Starlight at the time and she went out with K, 006’s best friend. He broke up with her on Christmas. Then, he stood in front of 006’s desk and made 1 hand eat the other. “Her lips swallowed mine. It was gross.” Starlight sat a few desks to the right and overheard him and walked out the class. I remember thinking, “what an asshole.” Since, I was very much incapable of feeling sympathy for anyone save Starlight that was probably the moment I fell in love. We used to talk for hours on messenger after school.
Then onto class 1 so now it’s grade 8. I was sad to go. 006 did make me laugh all the time and I didn’t want to be stuck in a class full of nerds. I was the worst academically there and the homeroom teacher would say, “Chris. Not a single A.” What was amusing about that was the B in English. What was also amusing was during the school trip where he told the kid who was 2 years younger than all of us “to be more like Chris. People like him.” I was expecting him to tell me to be more like the other kid who was a straight A kid but the shoe never dropped. So onto what I did to kids. Miss steukenbergs English class. The teacher before her Mrs Smith gave me an A. She was firm but fair. Sent 006 out for not doing his homework. Then Miss Steukenberg showed up. 1 haiku poem each. I asked the class before it was due,”who wants their homework done for them?” Everyone said yes so I got to work changing cursive with print writing and different colors.

for the ladies at night

Demos of our upcoming Album Bound by Memory. 3 out of the total 10 Tracks, more coming soon!

Wrong Things / Right Time - Demo

Our world is a wasted treasure, and finding your identity and place in time is no easy endeavor. For some of us, self reflection and expression is the answer. On his debut album ‘tempus mirror’, emerging artist bleachwave traverses lanes of rock, electronica, glitch and pop to deliver a message of worldly uncertainty, yet with a brash confidence on pushing forward.

Lofoten Isles, Norway
More than 25 years as a rookie on my belt
Making music - in my case - is a creative exercise and something I like to do for recreational purposes, above all.
I love that anyone can take a guitar, their DAW, or whatever. Even just pen and paper, and come up with something special and unique that has never been heard or written.
This opportunity, regardless of experience and talent, to enter a universe and go places no one has set foot before, is magic. 
To draw a parallel to soccer, Im a non-league player, and would get attention for all the wrong reasons if I were thrown into a match with Salah, Haaland and the like. Still, by finding my level I can be part of an amateur team that serves a purpose in a local community, like a social meeting spot for people who like football - or don't - to come together, get into talks through a comment on a situation in the match and such. And you know what's coolest of all? Once in a while, when the sun and moon line up, I`m on a streak with my evening prayers or for some other reason have my day, I make this amazing dribble, then score a spectacular goal, becoming the local hero of the day or something. Those moments happen on all levels. Chances are perhaps even better on lower levels for this dribble to never have been seen before, since amateur football is not as controlled and professionalised as La Liga, Premier League, etc, leaving much more room for experimentation and individual creativity.  
I bet you had a few of those moments yourself, right? Send me a sound file, - soccer being a metaphor after all -  of your magic moment, it being a victorious match full song or just this cool detail you like, perhaps a great lyric line, guitar riff, or even cover art, all goes, so I get the chance to enjoy it too, thanks in advance! 
Cheers
Odd Roar
