NEED A DRINK OF YOUR LOVE

A selection of our favorite tracks from around the cloud for June 2019

MTD Mixtape June 2019

Recalling some tequila, love words and more with them in that Ibiza bar, I wondered: “What if Pink Floyd met the spirit of Camarón de la Isla… in my bedroom?” I used lots of guitars, basses, etc. on a 12/8 beat, to enclose 3/4, 6/4 & 8/8 rhythms along.

Letra / Translated Lyrics: EL POZO DE TU AMOR  /  THE WELL OF YOUR LOVE

Fui a abrir el grifo, estaba sediento,  /  I turned on the tap, I was thirsty,
fui a abrir el grifo de tu amor.  /  I turned on the tap of your love.
Fui a abrir el grifo, necesitaba hacerlo,  /  I turned on the tap, I needed to do it,
fui a abrir el grifo de tu amor.  /  I turned on the tap of your love.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el grifo de tu amor.  /  I needed the trap of your love.

Fui a bajar al pozo, me estaba muriendo,  /  I was going into the well, I was dying,
fui a bajar al pozo de tu amor.  /  I was going into the well of your love.
Fui a bajar al pozo, y me caí dentro,  /  I was going into the well, and fell inside,
fui a bajar al pozo de tu amor.  /  I was going into the well of your love.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el pozo de tu amor.  /  I needed the well of your love.

Por bajar al pozo, yo me caí dentro  /  Because of going into the well, I fell inside
y no quiero que nadie llore por mis lamentos  /  and I don’t want anybody to cry for my laments

Caí… por ti.  /  I fell … for you.
Caí… caí… caí por ti.  /  I fell … fell … fell for you.
Caí… a tu pozo, caí por ti.  /  I fell … into your well, fell for you.
Caí… caí… caí… caí a tu pozo por ti.  /  I fell … fell … fell … fell into your well for you.
Caí.  /  I fell.

Me he caído al pozo, y ahora que estoy dentro  /  I have fallen into the well, and now I’m inside
veo que se ha secado nuestro amor.  /  I see our love has dried up.
Vine a beber al pozo, pero el pozo está seco,  /  I came to drink at the well, but the well is dry,
veo que se ha secado nuestro amor.  /  I see our love has dried up.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el pozo de tu amor.  /  I needed the well of your love.

El pozo de tu amor (Caí por ti)

Desecrated by Tainted Icarus
Featuring the wise words of Chief Oren Lyons 

This is a piece dedicated to Sam Prock's(https://soundcloud.com/samprock) Climate Change Challenge.  A noise with purpose what could be better.  In constructing this piece I broke a few rules, a little experimental and out of my comfort zone.

The vocals are a speech from Chief Oren Lyons about climate change.  He was remembering a elder meeting from his youth.  Reciting Louie Badwound's address to the elders.. and how from his own perspective much of what Louie wanted the elders to do has come to pass.  

Lyrics:

Put our medicine together  he says and bring them rain and flood em out
Bring the fires and burn em
Bring the wind, our grandfathers
We can do it
They'll never listen until they have to suffer

Destroying the greater part of Earth's civilization yourself
Destroying yourself

Put our medicine together he says and bring them rain and bring the fire 
Our brother brought it himself
It's here now
The fire he's talking about is here and burning right now
The wind he's talking about is just beginning

There is no mercy in nature,  none

There is no mercy in nature,  no mercy

Has only law
Only rule
You don't abide the rule
You suffer the result

Destroying yourself 


Climate Change -  In my world...we live such short spans of time... its hard to really know anything for sure.  So maybe there is some room for interpretation on the data... but regardless here are the truths of my short may fly existence. 

People were using to much leaded gasoline that it was poisoning the food chain,  the meat, fish and grain.  So we had to get rid of it to keep ourselves healthy.  

People used so many aerosol spray cans,  that it began to destroy the ozone layer.  We had to stop to prevent further damage. 

The ocean used to be filled with all the fishes we liked to eat.  Now they are getting harder to find.

So with my limited knowledge and logic, yeah.. I think the people on this planet can change the climate by their actions...because they already have done it 3 other times in just a single, yet unfinished life time.

You can only have a legacy.. if the species survives.
Peace and Love Tainted Icarus.

Piero Peluche: rhythm guitar, solo guitar, sitar guitar, electric piano, electric bass, drums, music, mix & master
electricpaul: vocals, nosy guitar & lyrics


A bit of a twist in the plot here. It was the inimitable Piero Peluche who at first composed the instrumental music. Then electricpaul was challenged with coming up with lyrics and devising a vocal melody. It was Earth Day last and a friend and collaborator suggested that the song might be about Gaëa whilst the inimitable Piero Peluche was looking for a story involving imprudent high jinks of youth, which presented a dilemma. There's some nosy guitar in there as well for good measure.


SCRATCH SCRATCH

I'm gliding over the seas
Over mountain tops  
Turbulance beneath  

Well, You pick it up
And you pack it out
You bring it down
Then you wrap it up

I'm driving along valleys
Levees and riverbeds
Sand and rocky beach  

Yeah, You take it out
And you pack it down
They comes along
and take the lot right out

Winding road rounds  the bend
Where the air is arid and dry
Behold the promised land 

Well, you find a spot
And you line right up
pass in hand
Through the gates and then …

Sun sets to the east
Then the lights come up
And the show begins
 
Got a glass in hand
time to raise it up
Ladies twirl
'round and around

Trudging around in the trees
Can't see the forest for
all of the leaves

You take a break
So to peer about
Ridges, peaks
Alpine rivines 

Winding road rounds  the bend
Where the air is arid and dry
Behold the promised land

You gather up 
And you pack it out
You hike on down
What it's all about

It's never been like this in the home
And I feel that the gist here has gone
The truth is always hidden somewhere around
Goin' to another town

Yeah
Uh-huh

You line 'em up
And then you shoot 'em down
You pick 'em up
And then you knock 'em out
You rock on up
And then you break it down
You light it up
And then you put it out

This is a two and a half minute extract from a much longer piece intended for live performance.

"Hullo, Michael," I said.

'Find Sound' is the debut record from Shards, a London based vocal group led by singer, composer and producer Kieran Brunt. Combining voices, synths and percussion, Find Sound is an astonishing exploration of the human voice; using the concepts of sound and light as simple metaphors for gaining understanding. The album’s pieces are intended to be miniature sonic paintings, with each adding to an overall picture of the emotional confusion of early adulthood: the uncertainty, the excitement, the terror and relief.

After collaborating with Terry Riley in 2016, Brunt was asked by the Barbican to form a choral group for Nils Frahm’s Possibly Colliding festival that summer. Following the success of the shows, Frahm invited Brunt to join him in Berlin to collaborate on choral arrangements for his recent album 'All Melody'. Shards have since gone on to collaborate with other notable artists, including Michael Price on his recent LP 'Tender Symmetry'.

Each of the singers in Shards brings a very distinctive musical personality to the group, something which Brunt was eager to emphasise on their debut record. Rather than aiming for a seamless blend or absolute precision when recording, the differences between voices has been intentionally highlighted — celebrating their unique textures and inviting the listener to hear their minutest details up-close.

"The group ended up consisting almost entirely of friends and friends-of-friends. I also tried my best to ask people who weren’t just singers, but who do have other projects and musical interests. As such, we have people in the group who are also composers, instrumentalists, folk musicians and teachers. It’s a vibrant mix, and I’m constantly discovering new things about them the more we make music together.” — Kieran Brunt

Shards is Kieran Brunt, Lucy Cronin, Sarah Latto, Bethany Horak-Hallett, Kate Huggett, Chris Huggon, Jack Lawrence-Jones, Rose Martin, Augustus Perkins Ray, Oli Martin-Smith, Josephine Stephenson and Héloïse Werner.
