Yesterday's Song

This is about making a change in life.  

Lyrics;
The walls are thin in the place that I live
And it's always so loud outside
The neighbors scream and shout on either side of me
Sometimes it's hard to sleep at night
Trying to sing a song that I heard yesterday
But I just can't recall the words
The Neighbors banging on the wall hey keep it down in there
Leave the singing for the birds
But it's a sunny day. No need to stay inside
Time for me to put the foot to the pedal.
And go out for a ride
The town is very small but it's the world I live in
And there's a freeway that is rolling by.
The coffee shops drawing in the weary drivers
Hot caffeine will open up those eyes
The traffic lights are always red way too long
The green light's just a short and sweet surprise
Is there somewhere else that I ought to be
Another kind of place to live my life
Well it's a sunny day out in the countryside
And freedom is the road that I to travel
So I'm going for a ride
Going for a ride to get my mind steady
Not coming back unless I'm good and ready
It's a sunny day the world is big and wide
And I've got time to spend
I'm going for a ride

TAFFETA | Part 44

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

Not being a drummer or having access to a collaborating drummer very often I have been moving away from using the Logic Pro virtual drummer and playing the drum grooves on my keyboard. I have to admit it has given me added respect for the art as it is not easy (at least for me) to keep a consistent beat even for a few bars. For this I used the Vintage Breaks+ drum kit, but to get the deep sound applied the Space D reverb, which I then also used to give the same overall sound to all the stems. The bass is a Logic Baby Bass treated with a Full Stack guitar amplifier. For the vocal in the chorus I used a reverse Space D reverb to achieve the ghostly effect. Lyrically I think this song speaks for itself.

TWO SPEED

There’s vintage and new
All kinds and looks
On this brand new two speed highway
I can see you clearly
You’re holding on and dearly

There’s a clear road ahead
Slipping into 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th
There’s a lane you can choose instead
Letting go, letting go 

I’ll pass you by
Why don’t you even try
I want to love you 
I want to hold you

I can’t wait for you
Makes me wanna cry
Stay away from you
I’m afraid of you

Unless you help yourself
Take good care of yourself
And love yourself
Unless you help yourself
Take good care of yourself
And love yourself

So much more than you and me
Can’t slip into he said, she said, we said, they said
A shiny city on a hill  
I wanna get there, you wanna get there
 
Free flowing air
Full speed ahead, but
To be close to you
Spend time with you

I’m breaking free
I wish that you could see
I can’t love you
I can’t trust you

Unless you help yourself
Take good care of yourself
And love yourself
Help yourself
Good care of yourself
And love yourself

RiZLiX - Tropical Dreams

This track was made during a difficult period for me, when covid drove me into a cage of depression. To cope with it, I, in spite of everything, took out all the light that is in me and, through I can't, tried to make music. And she saved me! This is the first track in a new, now, world.

Massive thanks to Russell Sinfield for spending hours and hours mixing and mastering this EP, especially since he originally thought he was only mixing one song, lol! And thanks to taRka, Arkestar, Joerxworx, Bitzone, and Alex for all the inspiration, creativity, and energy you added to this track. You all made this track what it is!

I grew up on hip hop and have always been a hip hop musician first. Hip hop (and lo-fi indie rock) is the lens through which I always first approach making a song. After spending years listening to the music of our SoundCloud community, everyone's music has found a deep place in my heart. I believe that when hip hop artists first began sampling funk tracks in the 80s, it was out of love and respect for the music they grew up with and identified with. I now sample the music of my SoundCloud collaborators and friends to make new songs from those that I love. Tony Turn Around is a celebration of that process. It is a representation of the joy of sampling and the delight of playing around with cool sounds from musicians you respect and admire. I hope you all continue to enjoy what we have created as a community here on SoundCloud and Bandcamp!

This project is dedicated to the development of a more conscious, equitable, harmonious alternative to the destructive imperialist colonial neo-liberal capitalist consumer societies in power.

In-perfections make us unique.
We can hide inside of them so simple and beautiful things that make us also happy.

Solías decirme 
Que todo saldría bien 
Pero sólo mentiste 
Porque todo salió alrevés

Pero cuando me mentiste a mi
Tú también te mentiste a ti 

Róbame las ganas de morir 
Las ganas de rendirme 
Todo sigue igual 
Luego tú te marchas
Mientras la esperanza 
Hace que me vuelva irracional 

Y cuando vuelvas a mi
No quiero volver a verte huir
No quiero volver a verte

Solías decirme 
Que todo saldría bien 
Pero sólo mentiste 
Porque todo salió alrevés

Pero cuando me mentiste a mi
Tú también te mentiste a ti 
Pero cuando me mentiste a mi
Tú también te mentiste a ti 

Y cuando vuelva a ti 
No quiero volver a verte ir
Yo vivo a mi manera
Siempre estoy en una verdadera rebelión
Y se que cuando creas que es el fin
Estaré a tu lado siempre aquí 
Y seras mi primera 
Decision tomada con debida reflexion 

Disculpa las maneras
Yo vivo a mi manera
Disculpa las maneras que hay en mi
Yo vivo en rebeldía siempre aquí

Yo vivo a mi manera
Disculpa las maneras
Y serás mi primera decisión
Tomada con debida reflexión

Lyrics: J:Mertens (aka Westfront)


Pink On Blue

I know u r hiding
Hiding in a mirror
I know u go Mad
Mad behind my Back

Pink on Blue

u got a pocket
a pocket full of stones
come on let them jump
jump over deep water

Pink On Blue

We know it all fake
But we dont care
Call it a shake
say its Not Fair

Pink On Blue

We left a message
Carved into our Skin
Stay in a cage
A safe place to live in

Pink On Blue

You know that I am hiding
Hiding in the Inside
U know i go mad
Mad on everything outside

Pink On Blue

The Stones in your Pockets
Keep Calming me down
Come on find a river
A river full of Stones

Special thanks to John-Marc Ventimiglia @john-marc-ventimiglia for the tinkling star bells
This image from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope released May 30, 2022 features the Grand Design Spiral, NGC 3631, located approximately 53 million light-years away in the direction of the constellation Ursa Major. The “arms” of grand design spirals appear to wind around and into the galaxy’s nucleus.  A grand design galaxy’s spiral arms stretch clearly across the galaxy through many radians and may be seen over a considerable proportion of the galaxy’s radius.  Close inspection of the grand spiral arms reveals dark dust lanes and bright star-forming regions along the inner part of the spiral arms.

Dorothy meets the 3 munchkins and receives their advise on finding The Wizard of Oz.
From the Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum: “At the East, not far from here,” said one, “there is a great desert, and none could live to cross it.” “It is the same at the South,” said another, “for I have been there and seen it. The South is the country of the Quadlings.” “I am told,” said the third man, “that it is the same at the West. And that country, where the Winkies live, is ruled by the Wicked Witch of the West, who would make you her slave if you passed her way.” . . . The three Munchkins bowed low to her and wished her a pleasant journey, after which they walked away through the trees.

From the Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum:
Just then another groan reached their ears, and the sound seemed to come from behind them. They turned and walked through the forest a few steps, when Dorothy discovered something shining in a ray of sunshine that fell between the trees. She ran to the place and then stopped short, with a little cry of surprise. One of the big trees had been partly chopped through, and standing beside it, with an uplifted axe in his hands, was a man made entirely of tin. His head and arms and legs were jointed upon his body, but he stood perfectly motionless, as if he could not stir at all. Dorothy looked at him in amazement . . . “Did you groan?” asked Dorothy. “Yes,” answered the tin man, “I did. I’ve been groaning for more than a year, and no one has ever heard me before or come to help me.” “What can I do for you?” she inquired softly, for she was moved by the sad voice in which the man spoke. “Get an oil-can and oil my joints,” he answered. “They are rusted so badly that I cannot move them at all .  . . “I shall ask Oz for a heart,” said the Tin Woodman; “for brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world.”

From the Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum:
Toto barked sharply and made a snap at the tin legs, which hurt his teeth. . . It was Toto that made Dorothy laugh, and saved her from growing as gray as her other surroundings. Toto was not gray; he was a little black dog, with long silky hair and small black eyes that twinkled merrily on either side of his funny, wee nose. Toto played all day long, and Dorothy played with him, and loved him dearly.

Howling winds and whispered oaths
Sailing to your milky shores
As seamen must
In a final thrust
Like the sweetest sun-kissed peach
My D-day landing beach ...
