sounds to rest, chill, dream and sleeping

REST

Just a quick-simple cover :)

"Black Coffee" (1948 song), written by Sonny Burke, the lyrics by Paul Francis Webster.

Coffee can lift the spirits, bring people together and serve as a crutch when you just need to sit around and marinate in your own thoughts. Jazz is an excellent foil to coffee, so it's no wonder that so many jazz musicians have been inspired by the brew...(source:npr.org)

I'm feeling mighty lonesome haven't slept a wink 
I walk the floor and watch the door And in between I drink 
Black coffee love's a hand me down brew 
I'll never know a Sunday In this weekday room 
I'm talking to the shadows 1 o'clock til 4 
And lord, how slow the moments go When all I do is pour 
Black coffee Since the blues caught my eye 
I'm hanging out on Monday My Sunday dreams to dry
 Now a man is born to go a lovin' A woman's born to weep and fret 
To stay at home and tend her oven And drown her past regrets In coffee and cigarettes
 I'm moonin' all the morning ,moaning all the night 
And in between it's nicotine And not much heart to fight 
Black coffee Feelin' low as the ground
It's driving me crazy waiting for my baby To maybe come around...

Lyrics:
speak until the dust
settles in the same specific place
light refused to go
drink it from a cast and iron plate
instead of cold milk
was offered unripe
instead of silence
considered craven

nothing made it seem
hidden where the aging soil was pure
pressed against the crease
mountains become fragrant at the source
how can you stand this
exotic angle
i read it somewhere 
that they would lie still

i remember how cloth hung
flexing with the forest clung
half waist and high raised arms
kicking at the slightest form
i remember my first love
i remember my first love

unrelied i was called
missing teeth out of favour
nickel beach it was all
gathering by the sundial

i woke hard
i woke heavy 
for the half way stop
five whole hours in
when i woke hard 
i woke heavy with the live or parts 

i remember how cloth hung
flexing with the forest clung
half waist and high raised arms
kicking at the slightest form
i remember my first love
i remember my first love

i remember my first love

LYRICS: 
I don't know how your brain works so well and if i did i might explode. 
Even if could, i don't think that i would, want to decipher your series of codes. 
A lifetime of trouble but how could i not love you. 

Yeah we humans we crave a certain certainty but no mystery
ever got old. 

A lifetime of troubles but how could i not love you. 
A lifetime of troubles but how could i not love you.

Newcastle-based singer songwriter Jake Houlsby is very pleased to announce the release of his indie folk-infused debut EP ‘Yannina’.

Having previously released material under the guise of Suntrapp, Jake stepped out of the limelight six months ago to consider his artistic direction and is now ready to return and release music under his own name.

The folkster has gained widespread acclaim in the last few years with national radio airplay on BBC 6 Music courtesy of Lauren Laverne and Tom Robinson as well as considerable blog coverage on the likes of The 405, For Folk’s Sake and The Mad Mackerel.

In 2013, Jake was also the proud recipient of the Alan Hull Award for Songwriting in addition to being selected for the Roundhouse 3030 Project which saw him perform at the Roundhouse Rising Festival.

The talented folk musician has clearly honed his craft on the live scene and is ready to kick off this new phase of his career with a series of live shows dedicated to debut release ‘Yannina’.

The six-track EP will feature tracks including title track ‘Yannina’, ‘Fuel For The Fire’ and ‘Beyond All This’ and promises to show a side to him we’ve never seen before.

‘Yannina’ is officially released on Monday 8th June.

ABOUT:

Nils Frahm has always said that he’s just waiting for something real special when being asked if he would ever score the music for a film. And that’s exactly what German director Sebastian Schipper presented to him with his one-take feature ‘Victoria’. Filmed in Berlin, Victoria’s plot sees a runaway party girl, who's asked by three friendly men to join them as they hit the town, but their wild night of partying suddenly turns into a bank robbery as the music changes from techno to subdued piano sounds.

For the recording session at Studio P4 in Berlin, Frahm enlisted the help of long-time collaborator and cellist Anne Müller, violist Viktor Orri Árnason and ambient artist Erik K. Skodvin of Deaf Center on guitar.

‘Victoria’ won the Berlinale Film Festival prize for Best Cinematography and has also received seven nominations including Best Soundtrack for the Deutscher Filmpreis – Germany’s highest movie award, and will be released in cinemas across Germany on June 11th with plans to release it in the UK and other countries soon.

Here's a little home recorded track I made in Tigh Na Ri Rua and Malmo, it features Ross Turner on drums.

HARRINGTON STREET

Friday, I'm In Love (cover)

This is an old track I produced in 1999. The production & mastering are quite flawed, there is some nasty clipping amongst other things.
I have changed computers and moved house at least 4 times each since I made this so probably won't be able to improve it...
... but I am still proud of it none the less.

Ásgeir – Going Home (The Toe Rag Acoustic Sessions)

https://FoolsGoldRecs.lnk.to/BlackAtlass

Armed with little more than his trusty keyboard and a soaring, ethereal voice, Montreal’s Black Atlass has created an entire world of music for when the lights go out. “Paris,” his hauntingly beautiful Fool’s Gold debut, filters classic melodies through perfectly sparse electronic production, resulting in an after-hours ballad for the ages. The single comes backed by an acoustic version that tugs at the heartstrings even harder, and marks the arrival of an important and unforgettable new talent.
