Love Tonight

Naissance

This music relates the battle of the god Susanoo against the eight-headed dragon Yamata-No-Orochi. He must had the dragon drink a lot of sake to win the fight (I guess you can hear this near the end ^^).
This track is part of the project of my friend Hideo @soundsofthekosmos. It is an open invitation to collab by exploring japanese myths. More tracks - including some from other soundclouders - can be listen here: https://soundcloud.com/soundsofthekosmos/sets/kojiki-project.

Battle against Yamata-No-Orochi (Ariad + Zanshin)

A bit of a genre fusion - mainly trance, with electro percussion & a few power chords for good measure :)

Thank you for listening ♥

Drive

I'm delighted to share this piece of music today.  Careful not to spill as you dance!
A very special thank you to Jean-Pierre (JiPé)!

The Coffee Dance (Orchestration by Jean-Pierre Dubois)

This piece embodies throat singing and mantra style vocal placements within our preferred alternative frequency to mainstream radio releases. If you're unfamiliar with our work, please don't drive or use machinery until you know how this will affect/effect you. We pray it reduces some of the misguided misunderstandings, anger, and hatred we see around the world... in an effort to replace it with a bit of humble connection with one another by tuning out the sanctioned resources of the political, socio-economical ruling divisiveness of the fear-inducing "not enough" mentality. Wherever we are along our life journey, we have enough and we ARE enough.

Lyrics:

Dear, deer, on the wall
Who is the slyest of them all?
Dear, deer, on the wall
The fear and lies announced your fall

The eyes of the deer tell a story 
and not one of sugar and glory
they tell of a dark Disney tale
Bambi's mother now looking stale

From the critters down below
The ones that took her from the flesh
in the snow
they stole her doe
A savory slab in the cracks of a gyro

All she can do is watch
The demons below her head
Chomp and chomp and chomp and chomping
Because her son was dead

A birds eye view from the ceiling
The sin in this room is peeling
And leaving its mark in the floors
Stained with all these dreaded wars

With the sweat, the drool, the semen and greed
The bricks of weed and DND.
Thick boys fiddle the cardboard
Streaming the cards of the deck for scores

It's hoarders in these corners, The ceiling can't inhale
It's hoarders in these corners, I'm stuck without bail
I'm frozen on this throne, Just watching what unfolds
While they all look and stare, This gambling hand is numb and cold.

The telephone keeps ringing lately
And I don’t know who it is
Every time I say hello who is it 
There’s silence on the line 

And when I try to trace the caller
There’s no number to be found
I can’t even call the operator
They don’t exist any more

Maybe I’m just imagining it all
Just Tricks upon my mind
If it’s you that keeps calling
Won’t you please just give me a sign
Please just give me a sign

Instrumental verse

In the night I heard a high pitch pinging
A message had just arrived 
But when I checked my phone to read it
A blank email was all I found 

I wonder if I’m imagining it all
Just Tricks upon my mind
If it’s you that keeps calling
Won’t you please Just give me a sign
Please give me a sign
If it’s you just give me sign

Silence on the line

New recording of this song that was in the finals of the NZ MLT songwriting awards 2010


Is This Who I Think It Is 

Another tumble ‘cross the dance floor
A tender hold onto someone I call my own 
A look into her eyes that lingers
Another drink that goes from loving hand to hand

Is this who I think it is
A touch and a blown kiss
I look at her
I look at him
Is this who I think it is

A frozen minute in a lifetime
I lurch and stumble to the dancers of the night 
As I push myself between them 
My life with her is playing out in black and white

I wonder at the blind man
Who was missing all the clues
Once a happy go lucky guy
Now with leaden shoes

I am dancing in a wasteland
She is speaking but I cannot hear a sound
Her face resigned to do to her duty
I can see him and his eyes are shifting round

Is This Who I Think It Is

I'm putting up new original material on my Spotify channel https://open.spotify.com/artist/2PtcG937rHfQWJwv0Zi4um?si=t1ppLngORgmuqz9qeoDOzw 
Mostly original tracks, a few covers here and there. Thank you for even getting this far. Thoughts, opinions, suggestions all welcome. It's pretty lonely out here toiling over every sound wave and grubby plugin. Any feedback is appreciated and if you've got a track you want me to hear send it over - what comes around goes around etc. A huge shout out to Len Rice for all his production suggestions on this and other tracks of mine - a true expert, check him out https://soundcloud.com/lenrice
One day I hope to get some collaborations going and a far off dream is to re awaken all these tracks in a live environment with a live band and maybe even a live audience. For now the dream keeps me going. Thanks for listening.

I'm trying to use as much real instrumentation as possible: a Taylor and a Norman acoustic guitars, a Fender Strat Roadhouse that goes out of tune if I even look at it, a cheap Vintage mandolin that hurts to play and listen to, an 80 year old zither banjo that screams 'I was never destined for this' and a borrowed Aria Pro II bass that a friend can never be bothered to take home on the bus. Synths are a plasticky Roland FA06 and a fun but dumb Korg minilogue. Throw in some Native Instruments software primarily for smoochy piano and strings, a £15 melodica full of tramp spit, some harps in impossible tunings, and a box of percussion and assorted prehistoric flints (are you really still reading this??). 

All recorded on Logic Pro X on an ancient iMac that is going to explode any minute and take my entire oeuvre with it. And most likely burn the house down.
