Inspired by tricks that shadows can play, this track explores the darkness of old age at the end of life, and the seeing of a friend who brings you home in death. Thank you for listening!
This track is a demo for the first track that will make up a new album called Everyday Hauntings, created by my band (yet to be named). This Album will explore idealism and a gradual path to darkness. 

Thank you to everyone who helped make this, including Barbera Niven Garcia for her amazing vocals,
D3L1R1UM RECORDS for helping compose the instrumental, and Andrew Jackson for some great guitar playing. Thank you to all the listeners too!

The lyrics for this track are as follows:

Layering the shadows, pencil people
Pictures taken on a film, outlines of life
Snapshots long forgotten, forlorn ink layers
I sit alone, absorbed in darkness, shadows only memories
Eyes start to pick apart what is in the shadows in the dark.

Pictures of my friends engraved in my head engraved in my head, engraved in my head.
Stormclouds rolling in thoughts in my head, thoughts in my head, thoughts in my head 
I sit at night empty room, empty bed, feelings in my head, feelings in my head
I sit at night empty room empty bed, your all that's left in my head, your all that's left in my head   

When light descends, on shadows I depend.
We sit close together, I sit alone.
We talk into the night. Does time have no right? 
But the sun awakens, and I am left alone.

Wish they never said he had run all his borrowed time. She’d spent all her coins in slot machine life
Life is so short-lived its blackboard is wiped quite clean. All traces of chalk are gone from the seams
Wish I could somehow ask them where they have gone. Why did they leave before too long? 
wish I could tell them what they all meant to me. Draw them back from the parts they left in my heart

This track was created with my friend D3L1R1UM records and is a remix of his original dance tracks. Find him on

This track was a step outside of my comfort zone in music, but I thought I would give it a go! In regards to the lyrics, they are meant to be slightly humorous and poke fun at dance track lyrics which are usually a bit rubbish! Anyway, I hope you enjoy this slightly different track! 
The lyrics are as follows:
I've no clear confidence in the world of the magic water tents. I sit at night in the fire in the rain. What's pain what's pain what's pain?
I find a trophy in the sand says it knows my world says it knows my plan.
All must hear what it has to say I hang it up to admire all day.
There it watches me as I watches it up above my ego sits.
In the fire in the rain, I find a pain, my ego I find it to blame.
So I throw it out right down the drain and sit in the fire and the rain.
When darkness comes and I get my rod I get my bait and to make my catch.
I sit all night with rod in hand fishing in the drain I make my plans.
I fish it out, stand it in the light I worked all day and I worked all night.
But what was the point of this whole event in the world of the magic water tents?
My ego's done my ego's gone, why not throw it back where it belongs.
So I toss it down back in the drain and sit in the fire and the rain.
Whats pain, what's pain, what's pain?

The trophy

The Trophy - A fun experiment with a friends track!

These two tracks with an identical base, but very different feelings describe the loss of humanity, particularly within nature, where we once had beauty and left that behind. Human greed has caused damage to relationships and the environment; sometimes, we need a reminder of what makes us human!
The lyrics for the second track Terrestrial Invasion are as follows:

Where are you coming from?
I see you in the airwaves in the forecast heat, heat all day.
Feed me from your metal bucket.
Cancer grows from the sky.
Hot, chilling fever.
Aliens come from above.

Make contact with the moon.
Call down the sun to dust.
In metal buckets raise the sea walls.
Aliens come from above.

Is it aliens in the airwaves, or is it just us masquerading?
We stand at the basin, washing our faces of all recognisable traces.
Hope to leave what's human far behind in the deluge and the rubble.
Scrape clean the bottom of the barrel, clear out all our human decency.
Leave an alien behind in the heat and the radiowaves.
Does killing make you human does pain make you human does rape make you human? Does torture make you human, does crying make you human, does cheating make you human, does gambling make you human, does burning make you human, does torching make you human, does wickedness make you human, or is it love or is it trust, or is it patience, or is it kindness?

Make a decision whether you want to see yourself as part of humanity or made an alien in the pain
Take the decision to leave behind what you once saw necessary at the bottom of the barrel, fizzle lust and violence into the radiowaves
Throw out the metal buckets, abandon that pursuit of heat and the pursuit of pain.
Condense yourself into what is good, what is genuine and what is seen to be kind.
Find what makes you human in the light of the sun, not the heat of its darkness generated by the fuel of our pain.
Worship not the radiowaves, but what we are to be, what we were made to be, what we are found to be, what we are known to be; we are humans, we are humans, we are humans.

Terrestrial Invasion

Terrestrial

This track is about a woman's recovery from her partner's cheating. And the realisation that it is perhaps the one who cheated who suffers the most, they have to take the shame...
The vocals for this track were provided by my friend Nicole Gibbons, and the guitar was played by Barbera Niven Garcia. Without which, this track would not have been possible!

The lyrics for the track are as follows:
Down in our own dell, painting the blackbirds
Resting on trees, in the river we're captured
We watch the light melt their wings into gold
Across a violin sky, the lense flair sun unfolds

Our tree dances into the river
Dreams of love inside its frame
You could call our love a dancer
Moving in and out of chains

Down in my own dell facing the blackbirds
Chopping the tree that you caused to fracture
Birds fallen angels are calling it done
Your flare marks red across a vanishing sun

Your trees drowning in the river
Dreaming shivers mirrored pain
Our love once called a dancer
I tied it up inside in chains

But on a half moon, half mine and half yours
We sit in our own delI confronting our blackbirds
I'm watching myself tearing into your tears,
which splash the violin sky, smudge the sun out for years

No tree seen dancing in the river
No dream does shimmer in the pain
No love to force our dancing
What's left inside your shame

Painting the Blackbirds

This track reworked for a competition is about a women's recovery from cheating and the realisation that it is perhaps the one who cheated who suffers the most, accused and left alone in their shame...
The vocals for this track were provided by my friend Nicole Gibbons, and the guitar playing by Barbera Niven Garcia. Without which this track would not have been possible!

The lyrics for the track are as follows:
Down in our own dell, painting the blackbirds
Resting on trees, in the river we're captured
We watch the light melt their wings into gold
Across a violin sky, the lense flair sun unfolds

Our tree dances into the river
Dreams of love inside its frame
You could call our love a dancer
Moving in and out of chains

Down in my own dell facing the blackbirds
Chopping the tree that you caused to fracture
Birds fallen angels are calling it done
Your flare marks red across a vanishing sun

Your trees drowning in the river
Dreaming shivers mirrored pain
Our love once called a dancer
I tied it up inside in chains

But on a half moon, half mine and half yours
We sit in our own delI confronting our blackbirds
I'm watching myself tearing into your tears,
which spalsh the violin sky, smudge the sun out for years

No tree seen dancing in the river
No dream does shimmer in the pain
No love to force our dancing
What's left inside your shame
