Liking this melding of ideas, Chris. Liking your explanation of experimenting too.

Great tune !!! Very moving and beautiful, loving this beat : it makes this track very fresh 😉👌

I like your experiment..electronic style always fascinated me since I started trying to write songs. I like the transition to the melody.

Another great collaboration with STONERJAZZ! @user-911083679

We considered converting this into a Zed song, but decided it works best as just an extended jam.

The drums were produced with Volca Drum and most of the synths are Minilogue XD. Jeff sent me 3 guitar tracks which are layered here. 2 of the 3 are a bit more subtle and lower in volume.

Thanks as always for listening!

So I am still experimenting, and trying new styles and themes. Some are hits and some are misses, but i guess its about growth lol. the vocals are rough, i have a tough time singing


My apologies to depeche mode..

The words are kind of like a riddle...

You’re a crown without a king
I’m a pawn without a game
You are daddy’s claim to fame
And I’m the one that takes the blame

But I believe that you can see
There’s a part of you in me
And soon you’ll know it’s true
There’s a part of me in you

Don’t you feel it in your heart?
We’re not that far apart

Two sides of the same dime
But how can either shine
When your daddy’s so inclined
To keep his pocket lined

He’s the master of our fate
We can beat him at his game

We can take the things we’ve learned
And work until the tide is turned
Or strike a match and watch it burn
Which do you prefer

I can see the signs
The longing in your eyes
The hurt you try to hide
Behind the veiled disguise

To be the master of your fate
Patiently you wait

We can take the things we’ve learned
And work until the tide is turned
Or strike a match and watch it burn
Which do you prefer

We can play by all the rules
only speak the truth
There’re more exciting things to do
Which one do you choose?

It all comes down to where we are
You’re in the light I’m in the dark
But we decide what’s right and wrong
Good or bad, weak or strong
Think for yourself it’s not too late
Who’s the master of their fate

Hi guys, really proud today introducing a very fruitful collab with my friend Dirk Taubenheim from The Gatsbys. This song means a lot to me, as this is my very first song I partly wrote almost 15 years ago. I only finished music and arrangement last year, and considering the great welcome this song had from you all, I decided to carry on the work and write lyrics. 
Once it was finished, I offered Dirk to sing it, as I always thought he had the admirable rocky voice this song deserved. He accepted straight away to sing it, which was an honor for me considering his prolific songwriting career. If you don't know him yet, you definitely have to visit his SC page : https://soundcloud.com/the-gatsbys
I hope you enjoy, and best wishes to you all.

Jo Richter @sonic-textures a.k.a. Sonic Textures and Silent Stretches produced a really fascinating soundscape with poetry that he offered as an open collaboration. Here is the link to the original:
https://soundcloud.com/sonic-textures/concatenandus?in=sonic-textures/sets/open-for-collaboration
Here is a link to a version which Stonerjazz @user-911083679 added to. My remix is working from this one:
https://soundcloud.com/user-911083679/song-0049wav
And if you'd like to hear one more iteration of this open collab, here is a great one from Nic: https://soundcloud.com/nic_nic_nic/concatenandus-nic-version 

I was quite fascinated by Jo's poem. See below for the lyrics.  I added the full text back in after chopping up some elements of it to create this soundscape, and when it the words sit on top they line up in some very interesting serendipitous ways.

I also have just released a version with soundscape only and just snippets of words left in the background, in case you'd like to hear without the poem overlaid:

Lyrics / copyright jo richter:
concatenandus - (on the meaning of wind generators in fashion photography)

she kept wondering about all those photographs
that show flowing hair and wide, wind-swept robes
until she understood: those ropes connect halves
of a self that's caught and its dasein-based scopes

what is my real size if it's not epidermical skin?
the reach of my voice? my status, hierarchical clout?
my environmental footprints, global, within?
my life's agenda? some will being lived out?

what is my true reach into psyche, space, time?
which pasts do shape my tribulations and loves?
she thought of herself as a poor poet's rhyme,
as a reflection of life in a stock photograph.

a stranger wave of understanding hit her
when she unfolded into the moment -
she was not singled out, her whole world was with her
she was connected in a well-worn arrangement

of events manifest: she yelled out with joy:
birds nest in my hair, my feet walk the ground
this self tried to bind me, this gravitational ploy
but beyond all that hassle, spins a world that is round

Words & Photographs: Concatenandus Remix with Jo Richter's full poem

Nič ni tako srečno

Nič ni tako srečno kot poletje, 
ki je opustilo svojo stražo,
ki je stopilo naprej 
in našlo svojo senco
v soncu.

Words: Manca Klun
Music: Alessandro De Oliveira Bastos

Nič ni tako srečno

Driving by a cupcake shop after hours, I witnessed a horde of rats devouring a stack of cupcakes left out in their trash. I said, "Cupcake Rats...that sounds like a pop punk band!" And, with an assist on lyrics from my brah Roger Vaughn...on the vocals from an incredible StudioPros vocalist...and on the mix from our buddy Peter Pope...a delightfully silly confection was born. I'm playing all instruments, and cut the drum loops.
LYRICS
Cupcake Rats, masters of the night
A sticky-sweet blight on polite society
Cupcake Rats

In the alley, they're on a mission
Sugar-starved rats near Cupcake Kitchen
In the moonlight, a shinny vision
Castaway cakes some bum has pissed in
Scurry, scurry, in a hurry
A seedy feeding frenzy, furry ball of fury
Chocolate icing, so enticing
A gutter buttercream dream in food porn lighting

When we're sleeping, rats are feasting
Cupcake Rats, masters of the night
A sticky-sweet blight on polite society
Yeah, that's right, Cupcake Rats
I know you saw that rodentia, didntcha?
Cupcake Rats!!

The air is grimy, slimy smells
Putrid sewer steam, swirled with sea salted caramel
Loaded pistols, assorted sprinkles
Slashing, gnashing teeth--all intermingled
Teaming vermin are a-squirming
Mangled angel food cake, squeaky rat sermons
Be sympathetic, it's pathetic
Most of those rats are Type II diabetic
CHORUS
GUITAR SOLO

30 Years Ago

Today I am as lost as 30 years ago          
Arriving for the first time in New York     
                  
And driving through the dark                
The dark and dusty city                     

Driving through the dark                    
Driving through the dark                   


What I remember most?
The dirt and Brooklyn Bridge

The woman scream
That seemed to last forever

Right on a corner of the street
Right on a corner of the street

Against all chances
Against the world
I will take you there
Where love is born

Where love is born
Where love is born
Where love is born
Where love is born

I am lost as 30 years ago
30 years ago...
