So We Happen

Missing You feat. Madi

Not This (24/02/2022) by Irina

My heart is bleeding, worn and torn
Do not resuscitate
I don’t know where I am from
In a crisis state

Believed in better, trusted lies
At least I had some pride
But now, a war before my eyes
The terror bona fide

Unsure of my identity
What will keep me safe
Culture losing sanctity
Digging its own grave

Hypocrisy and bitter crime
“Civilians won’t be harmed”
Strangled by the darkest time
The Earth – shaken, alarmed

Although I’m not responsible
I’m feeling shame and guilt
I thought it wasn’t possible
But they grabbed the hilt

A slash, another, children scream
Displaced by politicians
God, let this be an awful dream
Inhumane conditions

My heart is bleeding, worn and torn
I cannot bear to witness
Generations not yet born
Never seeing kindness

Endless sanctions, tensions, greed
Fighting one another
Nothing’s ever been agreed
Upon I now discover

Who am I? Afraid to ask
Powerless, that’s what
Distance is no easy task
Cannot stay afloat

A ghost has occupied my place
Emotions go to slumber
Cannot bear to see my face
While fields shall burn to umber

Aggression, a cold-blooded act
But real blood will be spilled
How many people won’t know home
How many will be killed

Historical event, God, no
Don’t want to live through this
My heart is broken, all time low
Not this, not this, not this

Strangers In The Night - Nic Evennett feat. Jules Bangs - OUT NOW

A CD's worth of Max musings. An assembly of recordings I've made over the past 10 years or so, mostly constructed from my own Max patches, with  bit of guitar, keys and bass thrown in here and there.

1. A Moment In Time (binaural)

seven minutes of a self-generating Buchla 200e patch.  love the randomly subtle timbral shifts and articulations that arise.  listen in a large room if possible or headphones otherwise.  this patch almost seems to breathe. to see a photo and video of the patch go to http://m.matrixsynth.com/2012/08/krell-muzak-by-todd-barton-on-buchla.html

Lyrics:

If we're not one then let's be water,
If we're not flowing we're not real.
I love your colour when you falter,
You're glowing sapphire in the steel.

Step out your world and drape it round me,
I'll slide my arms through what's undone.
We are the could and would and should be,
Where rivers blush under the sun.
Where rivers blush under the sun.

And be that as it may, still, still...
There's something inexplicable
In finding all of me could be all of you.

Just for a while, don't speak.
Just for a while, don't speak.
Just for a while, don't speak
And listen...

I lost the girl in me but caught her,
Your boy was tired of everyone.
They bound together in the water
And shimmered silver in the sun.

If We're Not One Then Let's Be Water (Nic Evennett and Classical Glass as Cellar Door)

midnight songs...

---

under this hood of mine,
I walk the night
to find you.
the moon says,
"I promise you, I promise you, 
go this way."
the click, click, clicking of my heels
and my tongue
swallowed by fog. 
there's nothing more.
will I find you?
will I find you?

find you

Choose Me
