Nitin Sawhney - Homelands (delta 7even re-touch)

Beyond Skin

Broken Skin

This is a conglomerate of 3 short movements.
Sometimes, smaller works seem to belong together...
In this case, I realized I was working on the same piece all along.

NOUVEAU DECO

Theodor Bastard - Kukushka

The Exodus

Curtis Gremmel joins me in another "twenty fingers" collaboration exploring an improvisational blues riff heard at the beginning.  Done in one take (essentially) I employed a little editing and sound enhancement to tighten the track. Curtis is left center in the mix. Hope you enjoy this "shade of blue".

Love In A Shade Of Blue (with fine guitarist Curtis Gremmel)

This track originally started out as an idea T.C. Newman and I had about a couple trapped in a dome they made to escape society, which turned into their prison after a nuclear holocaust (we do love a bit of dark melancholic dystopia). Then Nexus2089 joined us and we all decided to develop their story in 3 parts.  The beautiful soundtrack is all T.C. and the story was developed by Nexus and myself to explore their emotional journey to its inevitable conclusion. Please visit their pages for more of their excellent solo and collaborative work at https://soundcloud.com/user-345599158 https://soundcloud.com/user-645919354-865308826

Farrier's Daughter (lyrics by Ren Faye) 

Metal and old iron ore,
Days that have passed by before,
Lay your gauntlets at my door,
By sunrise they will be restored...

By the river water,
I am the farrier's daughter,
By the river water,
I am the farrier's daughter

These skilled hands,
Can craft a sword and a crossbow,
A spear, axe a dagger there is magic here I know

These skilled hands,
Can craft a sword and a crossbow,
A spear, axe, a dagger there, is magic here I know

Fa...alala...lay
Fa...alala...lo
Fa...laala...layeo

These skilled hands,
Can craft a sword and a crossbow,
A spear, axe, a dagger there is magic here I know

I whisper in your horses ear,
Telling them no need to fear,
There is light and kindness here,
A place to rest when dangers near...

By the river water,
I am the farrier's daughter,
By the river water,
I am the farriers's daughter...

Farrier's Daughter GMaks & Ren Faye

Some tunes you have to work at.  This one came quickly, but I still wanted it to steep a little, especially the middle section.  The title came quickly as well as I thought about my son-in-law's work as a truck driver.  When he is at home, he's home as a loving and devoted family man.  On the road, however, it's all "white lines and deadlines".  For a revealing look into the trucker's "white lines and deadlines", my videographer brother assembled a great video using a shorter version of this track: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4xLPK3TUBA&list=LLj-OlGOzJtweD8nMGsz7Vsg&index=4&t=0s

White Lines And Deadlines

A little tune for those in the Autumn of life who may have lost a spouse or maybe never married but have found someone very special and find themselves "falling again" in love.  
Annie @annie-smart-1 loved this tune and asked to collaborate on it which can be heard on her Cloud by following the link.  It is lovely in every way, and I am so honored by her collaboration.
