I got Aphex Twin vibes from the intro, but very beautiful song. I loved/love it!

Astronomy by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
Album: Cosy Lube Turtle

Astronomy is a cover song.
Originally released by Blue Öyster Cult on their 1974 Secret Treaties album. 

Music: J. Bouchard, A. Bouchard.
Lyrics: S. Pearlman.

This arrangement by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
Inspiration drawn mostly from the 1974 Secret Treaties studio album.

Chuck would often introduce this song by telling the crowd that it was famously covered by Metallica. "We wrote it of course! Cough ahem..."

A few artistically tasteful variations on the original have been made for this version.

One of the composers, Joe Bouchard, listened to it and granted his royal seal of approval.

Both Derek (panned right) and Chuck (panned left) take solos during the song.

Astronomy was often the final song of a live set from The Bastard Sons of Dennis.

Performers:
Derek Broom - vocals, guitar
Chuck Palmer - guitar, vocals

Recorded and engineered at Wud Records Studio One in Exeter UK.
Produced, mixed and mastered by George Davies 2011.

The Fades - Small Again (Bark Like A Dog Records)

The Fades release brand new single ‘Small Again’ on Sept 8th 2023.

We all get a little misty eyed at the thought of our past, remembering good times and bad. Times that leave an indelible mark on our being.

Music is one of the most effective ways to bring back these memories, flooding your thoughts like it was yesterday. One bar of a song and the nostalgia for times gone by hits you right in the feels.

Frontman of the Fades; Dave sings about the fact that as he’s got older there are now so many more memories associated with so many songs.

“I’m thinking of all the songs that make me cry, and how as the years go by, there are so many more of them….”

‘Small Again’ is a 3-minute indie pop/rock blast of nostalgia for times gone by.
Reminiscent of Ash, Blink-182, Idlewild and Hope of the States.

Last single ‘Off the Record’ blew up on streaming and radio, with BBC 6Music, Amazing Radio and Radio X picking it up along with loads of music blogs, curators and sites.

Get It Right

Is there anything more exciting or scary than sending a child out into the world?
Seeing my eldest daughter take off to study abroad is pretty much on top of my list, but - there's no stopping her.

Brett Eldredge's only slightly sentimental song was released in 2017, and, in my opinion, is another really nice song, that was lost in production.

Moral, and musical support by my son Gideon.

This one's for Eggy. Couldn't help it, don't come for me :).

No Stopping You (Brett Eldredge Cover - Giddy & Rob Jam)

Holiday is the third and final single from The Burma's sophomore album "Crazy Dreams and Cruel Realities".

A Shimmer In The Ruins

I hear him on the radio talking, 
I watch him on the TV news, 
Some people tell me he’s a popular fella, 
Some people say they disapprove

On the surface he’s an intellectual, 
On the surface he’s a leader of men, 
I really want to get to know him better, 
I really want to be his friend

He isn’t left, he isn’t right, 
There’s no one specific in my mind, 
He’s a preacher to the choir, 
He’s a cheater, he’s a liar

And we hate him like nobody does, 
We love him…

All he wants is a master narrative, 
Something on which he can rely and build his life around, 
He took a look at religion and bits of conflicting political thinking, 
For all it’s worth, 
And now he’s one stop on the train from his heaven on Earth

I tell you what I think he’s really not worth much more than the price of a ticket to the circus, 
But I find no one likes a visit to the circus like I do… 

He isn’t left, he isn’t right, 
There’s no one specific in my mind, 
He’s a preacher to the choir, 
He’s a cheater, he’s a liar

And we hate him like nobody does, 
We love him…

All he wants is a master narrative, 
Something on which he can rely and build his life around, 
He took a look at religion and bits of conflicting political thinking, 
For all it’s worth, 
And now he’s one stop on the train,
One stop on the train,
One stop on the train from his heaven on Earth…

Pardon me boy, 
Is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo? 
Can you afford, 
To board the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
Pardon me boy, 
Is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?

Master Narrative

Produced & Mixed by Mike Barrett
Mastered by Peter Fletcher at First Love Studios

LYRICS:

no way
i came here to forget those things
i can't stay
but let me be un-cynical
for one more second
one more lightyear
one imploding sun
wherever this may go
it has begun

far away
far away from earthly troubles
life again
pirouettes among the corals
does every heart
does every alien
get the urge run?
wherever this may go
it has begun

a face you remember
and all those you forget
and then there’s everyone
you’ve never even met
but the question of scale
is easily dropped
as the face across the table
grows larger

no way
got no room
for any major changes
but take this thought wherever you want
and rearrange the furniture
my kidneys and my lungs
wherever this may go
it has begun

no way
and then i find a way of saying
maybe
and then i find a way of saying
yes please
and then i find a way of saying
change me
change me
change me

No Way
