Great bass line. Brilliant 00’s indie pop sound 🎸

Fantastic! Great production. I love it loud on my headphones!

This is "The Album" so far.

We're putting studio tracks out in the order they are intended to be listened to. It's a concept album, it tells a story and uses the "hero's journey" as a template to do that.

The story is about you.

Verse1
so many rhymes -written---styles bitten
Tracks so sick -they'll leave you bed ridden
Word play written with -shadow-rhymes hidden
visions -That occur with -lethal--precision
insight for dayzzz--experience that pays
you'll be amazed- rhyme after rhyme--phrase after phrase
how the hell he do that—and the message conveys
cohesion on the track I’mer set it ablaze
Another Track turnt up Set this one on re-play
yeah -I got it….yeah -I got it like that

——-adlib

Verse2
Let's pick up the pace -Dropping bass in ya face
Locking haters in place- Rocking the whole damn place
Kicking ass…..more---Bass!!!!----more---Bass!!!!
let’s keep it going!!!
I'll share-The knowledge keep the drumbeat flowing
Get yourself a taste —-a full embrace
rhymes tighter than the knot -on top your shoelace
Guarantee! —to put a smile back on your face
Gimme some space- Gimme some space!
Unplugged!—so-why not try to interface
Addicted to the sound -Like it's free-bass
like coke!—the real thing-without the aftertaste
more--be Tha beat----- more-be Tha -Bass!!!!------more-be Tha-Bass!!!!

Verse3
All I've been through-leads to this time-this moment
Grinding night and day-while most lay dormant
Always bring my best-dress to impress
Full court press-the opposition seem ---stressed
I stay intentional-multidimensional
Verse after verse-totally exceptional
wait a sec---here’s a -reality check
bet a bottom dollar that a brother don't sweat
Go ahead groove on-ain't done yet
Rock another beat-so my haters —upset
Track is getting ---lit like a --------Newport cigarette
why the confusion y'all—-too--unconventional
must be delusional-Call it phenomenal
solid ambition-creative composition
adjust your position -cause I'm Still on a mission
track them down --take them out friendly disposition
grab the track press play -sit back and listen

Verse4
When the beats on time ain't no axe to grind
I just do my thing it's easy to unwind
Lemme rock the beat solid I'll take you for a ride
If you're just another Hater - hello ---goodbye
Racking up the numbers where the hell they're gonna hide
Really don't matter no more Mr. nice guy

Repeat-Verse1

Outro
Volatile like nitro—don’t shake or stir
Wanted signs posted-don’t let the lines blur
Creative juices flowing so go for what you know
This is what I was born for so come on let’s go!

Schweres Gepäck

Schweres Gepäck (Big Band)

Dan-DT sent me this wonderful composition a few days before he published it. It went deep into my heart and I listen to it almost every day.

In the end, I couldn't help but interpret it with my guitar and try to add my thoughts and feelings to Dan's emotional and ingeniously beautiful description of Outside of time.

And since it fits so perfectly into our conversation about time, I asked Peter to try to reflect this thought with a few lines of poetry, which he did with unfailing finesse. ;)

Many thanks Dan for allowing me and Peter to interpret this superb musical journey. We are very grateful for your generosity, that you exist and share so many musical wonders with us all. ;)

Have a wonderful journey, outside of time. ;)

Outside of Time

I spin, and map the tracks of time,
Recalling of my many futures,
Scheming plans for all my pasts.
Flashed sequences of “now” enact a line
Limply held by memory sutures
To stitch a lifespan's ragged wound,…..while each imperfect “present” lasts.

But no such thing as “is”, just “was” and “will”
As history loops perpetual in spirals all of varied speed
A myriad of parallel, infinity-bound, the great design
Will miss their tryst as the pendulum continues still
And those that seek to quench their viral knowledge need
Will always be, but never fully found,…......until they step Outside of Time.

Outside Of Time - Dan-DT, Peter & Seagull

LYRICS: 

Welcome to your entertainment for the evening
We're just here to check that you're still sleeping
Put your headset on, I'm gonna miss you when you're gone;
Where you're going there is no need for thinking...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Blow your mind inside the need for connection
Which is worse, indifference or rejection?
Stare into the screen, keep your mind unclean
Your device is suffering from an infection, yeah, yeah, yeah

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Your leaders won your thoughts and your names
The awakening is rising in your veins
Stare into The Sun
See the darkness run
They all forgot: in this world, Chaos reigns...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Orizzonti e Mare

LYRICS: 

Green skinned and beautiful with long red hair
Eyes jet black with a threatening stare
Legs; long, sharp claws, thin black lips
Tight little cape flowing round her hips

She is a Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

She looked at me and she, read my mind
I looked at her I said; what did you find?
Had me that night and the very next day
Taught me to spell; magick with a "K"

She is a Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

Go get your broom and lets get high
Lift up your legs and touch the sky
Go get your broom and lets get high
Lift up your legs and touch the sky

Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

She said she came from Lemuria,
I looked at her and said are you sure yeah?
So she took me all the way to Lemuria and
She's definitely from Lemuria

I said: Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

Waterwitch

Are people honest;
Or do most of them pretend?
We believe in love;
Or is that something that we say?

Your memory, really is your best friend
But when the truth is hidden does it matter anyway?

Black Cat, tell us how it is; black cat, tell us how it is: I-A-O-U-E

Now the end is near, see how their faces speak of gloom.
Can you read their minds? Or do their eyes give you the proof?
We're falling down, we've walled a monster in a tomb!
As the animal screams, here it try to tell the truth...

All good people your time has come, all good people your time has come I-A-O-U-E...

Black Cat

Welcome To The Neighborhood

Chase

See The Lion at the bottom of the road?
Telling everyone he is made of gold?
Standing in the night when it's quiet and still.
Turn your eyes and look towards the hill...

We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives

There's a rock in a field just before the park
What they did up there has left a mark
It's where the burned the Witches in times gone by
It's where they took our sisters, to die

We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives

When the wind changes it blows your mind
There's a million rainbows in your lies
Can you hear the birds calling out your name?
The entire universe knows you're ashamed

We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives

Fourth song in the series. It's a concept album, it tells a story. It's set in #Lancaster in the UK. The lyrics to this one put you outside The Golden Lion pub, at night, and take you up the road to the rock in the field just before the park which is there to commemorate the Witches of Pendle, "and all who were killed for their faith".

The Devil Lives

Man with the exploding brain:

Is there a reason, that we cannot find
Why all the people, are losing their mind
What is the truth, or is there no such thing
Can you believe, - in anything?

He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.
He is the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried -  he's going insane.

Outside his window. There are people to fear
Inside his house. There is no one here
Do not question. Cause they'll find you out
No thinking, thinking leads to doubt

He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.
He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.

'Now it's over we can be normal and new
We've got machines, to tell you what is true
We've done and said - things we all regret
So it's time - to forgive and forget

He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.
He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.

The Man With The Exploding Brain
