Lights Out in Wonderland

This is the final version of a song I have been wrestling with for a while.

Then You'd Know I'm Gone!

Millions of eyes long for this picture.
My heart is drowned
In the lost values of dust 

I'm staring and staring, try to understand.
It's so cold out here, but warmer than the human race 

In shiney hands, there's a star that's born.
Why do it makes everyone so  blind?
I only exist in my own light 

Waiting here in strange nights,
and never want to go... 

Drifting away, there's no goodby
Disapear forever 

And no one will get hurt

Written, played and recorded by Van Niemandsland Mathias at Deadspacemaze studio, March 2024.

I only exist

thanks to Derek (from Music for Cars discord) for guitar chords that I made into a soundscape and beautiful plucky bass! https://soundcloud.com/derek_barlas?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

thanks to Jennifer for sending me some lead guitar that I used in this track, beautiful playing and fitted well. https://soundcloud.com/jennifer-lea-231598588?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

kiss me (be free)

I'm only doing the singing on this one (trying to anyway). Not the greatest vocals but I just think this is a special song, one of Peter’s best, and wanted to share it, especially with those who haven’t heard it before. It's partly about growing old and getting your cherished memories in order while you're still able.

Following a string of underground hits, Circle Red (never ones to stand still or experiment) return with a mood study reflective of their 
time amongst the streets and rehearsal rooms of Bristol.

With echoes of Massive Attack, Morcheeba and Portishead this
delivers a deep. dark bass punctuated by a crisp snare and a sultry, almost electrifying vocal that sets the soul on fire. One for those lazy, hazy summer nights as you pull your partner close and hold on forever.

Mesmeric!

This is the first proper rebuild of Scribe in 10 years. It's now Melanin. Since I was trying to sing about racism, I just realised it should be more straight forward to see that. So hence the new name. In fact, I've decided to completely remake it and I'll put it on this years album. The artist BeART {New.Album here... https://on.soundcloud.com/Mwa2J } Is releaing a remix of the original, Scribe,.tomorrow 🥲 The first time ever... Thanks brother Go BeART 🇧🇪🌍🇮🇪

Artwork is by ADW. Multiple artists were commissioned to cover some temporary walls near my gaff. The cover for this song got the best one. Thaaaaanks
The artist .... I think.... http://adwart.com/

This song explorers the scourge of racism on Earth. Different amounts of melanin in our skin is really the only difference which builds human skin colour tone! So this 'lights a torch' for the 'other shades, the hues'. People of different colour skin to me! We're all the furking same.

Martin Luther King empowers the piece obviously 💫🤘🏿🤘🏻💫

The Magic slur is when Magic Johnston had to deal with a bigoted NBA team owner.
The good Dani let's eat... Dani Alves the footballer, picked up and ate a banana that was thrown from the stands in Barcelona's Nou Camp Stadium... This is the mercury mould. The racist gesture from that fan who threw that banana is meant to suggest some humans were monkeys on the pitch. Dani Alves stood up and was counted for that moment. Hopefully the person who threw it took on board what he did and changed... 

Apparently the amount of melanin changes over long periods of time in our skin depending how long our descendants have stayed in those locales with different amounts of light getting there and onto their skin... In turn evolving with those environmental conditions. That's it! Apart from that we all eat, drink, shit, piss, eat and so on... If we're lucky

Now that I think about it. It surprises me that I haven't heard this done before. (I'd love to be wrong 🔗 ?) Singing about the only scientific difference that gifts us with different tones of skin. How much melanin in you? Drill it into the kids!

Lyrics

A magic slur,
This  biggot must go!
It seems he don’t like ‘em too dark,
All monkeys roam free.
The Sun, relatively!
In this mercury mould a banana thrown.
It seems these don’t like em too dark,
Good Dani, Let’s eat!
All colours seep just melanin skin deep.
All colours leak just melanin
Why oh why do you take just your side
Won’t you learn that you’re no different.
Living with how the past framed their thinking…
Why oh why? Won’t you learn?

Let it rain
Pave the way
With Luther light
We learn tonight
You want the truth.
If this sits loose with you.
Oh what to tell our youth…
Here’s a clue!
How much melanin in you
How much melanin in you
Fight for the force
All of our human sects in tune
Light a torch for the other shades,
The hues…
How much melanin in you
How much melanin in you
Fight for the force
For all of our human sects in tune
Light a torch for the other shades,
The hues…
How much melanin in you
How much melanin in you
Fight for ‘the force’
All of our human sects in tune
Light a torch for the other shades,
The hues…

	“Sweet land of liberty at thee I say…”

Let freedom reign
I'm on my father's side
Let freedom reign
This land is for the children's pride
Let freedom reign
I'm on my father's side
Let freedom reign
This land is for the children's pride

Acoustic guitar and additional keys by Simon Culliton (My bro..)

Heavy lyrics at the end I stand together with my Dad, Cedric 👨‍👧My hero😘 He made me the good person I am so we stand together, Louder and Stronger against bullshit racist thinking

The messed up opening is my attempt at pretending Martin Luther King is popping into the song from another realm 🤯🤘🏿 Empowering the tune...He obviously articulated the problems associated this scourge the best so have a listen and read him.

I say FUCK RACISM and FUCK YOU if youre a racist. You'll burn out 🧘🏻

Melanin (Extended Demo)

Now! Wrote this many nows ago! Around 2012

The pic is and orange I'm about to eat. I never latched onto Grace when the church told me to thank God for food when I was younger... I'm my 20s I started it again..But I thank the food for dying to keep me alive. Proper grace!

Thanks Orange... because of these few moments... these few nows... I stay alive and you're life means so much more because you're not being wasted... and I'll listen to my tune too to mark the time and link. Best orange ever 😊

Idk... maybe thats a good change. The church says thank God... the most confusing thing for all humans to share ideas about... Instead of teaching the kids reality... This food was alive and is dying or you. Live appreciating THAT... not something that confuses you and then you stop doing it altogether. If you're on the fence... nonharm doing both

I thanks the Universe and the thing that dying and as many of the people involved in the process as we can think of as a family. it's deadly... We don't always think of it but I think it's honing the grace bit the right way 


Lyrics

Make it real won't you
Imagination truth
Not to confuse
That's where your dreams bear fruit
This alliance use a collective conscience
Clues?
You'll know more inside
When we stop wearing this place out


They say, No... It can't be done...
'Till one thinks outside the box
New paradigm takes dogma on
Yes, now we're moving
Now we're moving...

The Now

Circle Red are musicians and producers based in the United Kingdom and run the Full Send DNB record label. They defy categorisation and live in their own musical universe populated with infectious beats, experimental rhythms and big dance-a-long anthems. They possess a flamboyancy seldom seen on the live circuit, delivering swathes of gloriously fusioned dance music to mesmeric effect.

Although largely based within the drum and bass scene they are not restricted by code, fad or fashion and are equally at home in dubstep and even hip hop, as their recent reese filled remix of Tupac Shakurs ‘Nothin’ to lose’ will testify.

There is nothing contrived about Circle Red; their musical landscapes simply reflecting the mood and tone of each individual song and all delivered with a sonic kiss. 

Live you can expect to hear an eclectic mix of dance music from dnb rollers through to a rock onslaught and everything in between.

Isn’t it time for you to join the circle?
