Gotta Get Up!

(Verse 1)
Alarm screaming—-city dreaming—a new chapter unfolds
Sun peeking—-in my window—the concrete jungle glows
Eyes heavy—mind hazy—- the grind doesn’t sleeps
Coffee steaming—thoughts scheming—gotta conquer these streets
Shower spray—wash the haze—feel the water sting
Hustle fuel—pay my dues—ain't got time to sing

(Chorus)
Gotta get up, gotta get out, chase the paper, chase the clout
Stacking—dreams, lemme break it down—-every second counts
Gotta push, gotta move————ain't got ——-no time to lose
Sun's up--city's up--gotta get up—— got—- to much shit —to do

(Verse 2)
Concrete canvas—-spray paint anthems——gotta keep it real
Flow so cold—-hearts unfold——words that cut like steel
Subway rush——city bus—-rhymes ignite and spark
My paint brush——tells a story——graffiti in the dark
Meetings—deadlines——paper piles——climbing up-the ladder
through the fog——dog eat dog——it’s loyalty that matters
Family call——hear 'em all———-voices in my head
Keep on rapping——-keep on tapping——keep that fire fed

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Empire—dreams—-concrete schemes—-building from the ground
Every beat———-every street———there’s legends to be found
Rise above——-peace and love——-spirit’s —taking flight
Break the mold——-that’s the goal——to —-let the soul ignite

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)

(Outro)
gotta get up——gotta get up—-ain't no stopping—-this here flow
Like a symphony—-in harmony———-the—-story grow
Every rhyme—every dime———-echoes through this jungle 
Gotta get up, gotta get up———to—-do the daily hustle

Gotta Get Up

First song I am posting in 2024!

This is what I wrote in 2013 when I first thought about posting Nothing But (The Sound) but decided to take it down from the cloud short after. 

"Nothing But (The Sound)" is Plastic Inevitable's first song since 2011! Plastic Inevitable is Marty Procaccio, AKA Blankets, working the sound and Sneekie San Salvador tweaking the sound. The recording for this song began in 2011 in the bedroom recording studio of Marty in Santa Clara California using GarageBand and a whole bunch of pedals. The song was completed in 2013 with vocals recorded in Sneekie San Salvador's mobile Toyota recording unit.

Now it is 11 years later...

I am amazed that I found the vocal stems. I had to look though an old hard drive to find them. I did not feel like digging through more old hard drives for the original track stems. Big thanks to Russell for taking the time to mix the vocals and master the track. I told Russell, when I mixed the original instrumental I was listening to a lot of shitgaze bands at the time. 

May you find many gems when you dig into your past.

Lyrics: 

Chorus:
Sitting in my car
Windows rolled down
Feet out the window
Nothing but the sound
Of my favorite song

Capture me a distraction
And season it with your bliss
To steal my dissatisfaction 
And feed my mind but a moment
Of happiness 

Chorus

Capture me a distraction
And season it with your bliss
To steal my dissatisfaction 
And feed my mind but a moment

Chorus  

In this moment
There is an infinite 
Amount of things
Happening
In this moment
I have loved you
Infinitely 
Again and again
In this moment 
I am yours
Forever with me
My forever friend
In this moment 
I sing with you
Every song 
That was ever made

At the time of the birth of jazz, the role of the guitar was primarily as a rhythm instrument. I enjoyed this recording while remembering the lives of the great guitar players of the time, wondering what it would be like if we translated that atmosphere into a modern style. I am extremely grateful to Vocalatti and Mark Dorricot for agreeing to release this collaboration.

This time, I focused on playing the rhythm guitar, which is modest but has a strong presence.This recording does not include my solo guitar parts.

I am honored to be able to release this collaboration here. Please enjoy Vocalatti's wonderful vocals and Mark Dorricott's excellent performance.

===============================================
The chord you are sensing while listening to this recording is probably Dm7/G/. That's certainly how I play my rhythm guitar this time. However, I believe that this wonderful work was clearly written for those seeking an introduction to the blues.So, while listening to this recording, let's play the chord progression shown here = D7/G7/ along with the song. A three-finger arpeggio would also work. I think that alone will make you feel a little strange. That's exactly the entrance to the blues. The more perfect this basic recording is, the more we want to play it on the D7/G7/. I would like each of you to listen to this recording thoroughly and experience the joy of playing the D7/G7/ together.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the many people who have supported this track. And as I previously mentioned here, I recorded a guitar accompaniment for this song using the "D7 and G7" chords listed below. The track will be made private and only the link will be introduced below. Please click and play. I would be happy if it was useful for those of you who are practicing guitar.

The D7 and G7 positions I recommend are in the link below.
 I would like you to listen to this track and get an idea of the sound of the "D7 and G7" chords added to the original sound source. Also, learn how to trace the scale when using the "D7 and G7" chords.
First of all, "D7" = "D", so in the Western musical scale, Bm/D pentatonic comes to mind as a scale that can be used there. .
And one more thing: using "D7" directly leads to the use of the blues scale. When the chord is "D7", it is natural to try playing Dm/F pentatonic.
Please play it and check the above.

Vocalatti--- Candlelights - Mark Dorricott ft.JUNZO on electric guitar

in a garden
she is gazing
at an apple

she is naked
doesn’t realize
and she wonders

in the sun
asking:

“Listen honey,
would you like some
just between us?”

perilous
picnic

she don’t worry 
she can take the heat
Mother Courage
ends up in the street

east of eden
she is toiling
for her children

fearless love
wisdom
mama’s love
wisdom

fearless love
wisdom
mama’s love
wisdom

Astral ZUZ

Tes doigts sont devenus baguettes et cette boulimie t'inonde, 
À ces attraits de la braguette, c'est tout l'esprit qui y succombe. 
Ces charmes tactiles t'obsèdent, tu as mis l'amoureux en tombe. 
Ces sceaux de désirs, tu y cèdes, le mage noir annihile l'onde. 

Tu consommeras le sexe, l'amour est la fable du faible. 
Utile de le mettre à l'index, de ces souris, préfère l'aigle. 
Tu renieras ton amour-propre, pour un autre, bien diminué,
Féminin recevra l'opprobre, seule la tour sera sanctifiée ! 

On ne vante plus que les desserts, dans l'univers consumériste, 
Le sucre a séduit nos artères, le nous devint antagoniste. 
La pub plantait jadis des graines, dans un terreau théologiste 
Et aujourd'hui, l'amour en peine, renie ces fables terroristes. 

C'est Propagande qui désire, que tu désires plus que tu aimes, 
Qu'importe si l'autre respire, l'empire convoque violence et haine. 
On enfouira toutes tes fautes, pourvu qu'aux temples, tu implores, 
Le doux pardon de tes apôtres, oublie ton vide, ouvre tes pores ! 

- La beauté exige patience, comment peux-tu, sans trop rêver, 
Prétendre incarner une science, sans endurance pour t'y guider ? 
L'hormone liée à l'assurance, édifient nos fables modernes, 
Et ces communes acceptances, dresseront nos passions en bernes. 

Tu commandes à emporter, des nourritures, qui pour ta flore, 
Ne feront, que plus abîmer, tes intestins, qu'elles déshonorent. 
Il existe bien des magies, qui font vibrer les cœurs encore, 
Mais seul, cet index étourdi, ne saurait retirer leurs mors. 

Il est bien sûr préférable, d'aimer plus que de consommer. 
J'invite Passions à ma table, mieux que désir, enfant gâté. 
Si je vibre, c'est avec l'autre, on y découvre l'espace et le temps. 
Prétendument libres spationautes, élongeant la valeur Instant. 

Tes doigts ne seront plus baguettes, pourvu que les passions t'inondent, 
Et vers ces gravités secrètes, c'est tout l'esprit qui naît au monde. 
Ces charmes tactiles te débectent, tu as sorti l'amoureux des tombes, 
Ces sceaux de désirs, tu les jettes, la vraie magie chérie mieux l'onde.
----------------------------------------
En attendant de mettre à mal le fascisme ambiant,
Amicalement,
M'Z

One of my earliest influences on Soundcloud was/is an amazing artist known as BoxTox (@user-247600493). I've always loved his really quirky and creative music which is so fun to listen to because of all the subtle details (for example, unusual percussion, and using quite low air flow in his sax, clarinet, and flute playing, and original rhythms and melodies). 

This tune is my tribute to BoxTox, where I tried to bring in instruments and playing style influenced by his music. It was a lot of fun working on this, especially since I got the chance to practice with the really excellent VST brush drum sounds, even if it's a little busy at times! Of course, I couldn't help myself and smooshed in a middle section that's very typically me, whether it fits in or not!   :) 

All instruments are played using my keyboard, except the flute bits which are played live with a real flute.

Instruments:
- upright bass
- electric guitar
- drums & percussion
- alto & tenor sax
- clarinet
- bassoon
- flute
- organ
- violins
- cello

Best with headphones; thanks for stopping by!

The Tower ( Brownie, Fox & Daniels)
By :This Sound Society 

A song inspired by taking my 89 year mother to The Vintage Boys  Rock n Roll show.
A three piece harmony group backed by a fantastic band.
After the gig my mother reminisced about her own rock n roll days mainly at The Tower Ballroom where she danced the night away with her sister, brothers & friends.
So I thought I would love to create a three part harmony song with a twist of vintage and modern rock n roll thrown in. 
Magic Mike Fox loves a challenge and Nat Daniels is always up for a sing a long with me & Mike . So from basically an acoustic version to this power house. Magic Mike waved his wand and it’s happened. 

The Tower Ballroom was an attraction in Birmingham England which opened to the public in March 1876 and closed permanently in 2017 and was demolished in 2022.
It held 150 years of history and It was located beside Edgbaston reservoir. 
The Tower Ballroom hosted a wide variety of events, including roller-skating, ice-skating, dancing, discos, weddings, boxing matches, theatre, and musical performances including many famous names that graced its revolving stage. 
It was the place to go in the late 50s/60s onwards for the young people of Birmingham to enjoy the thrill of a big live music and dance venue.
Many romances, marriages and divorces were down  to The Tower . 
My own parents meet at The Tower and went on to  have a wonderful marriage.
So I dedicate this tune to my parents and all those stories my mother told me about it and how iconic it was.
It feels like a part of me and I did visit it myself a few times for a night out  usually after yet another refurbished in the 80s/ 90s. 
The picture cover is a photo of the queue for that last ever afternoon dance. Couples who meet at The Tower and got married were asked to attend to give it a good send off before being demolished. 
Would especially like to thank Mike for his patience as always with me and most of all his incredible musicianship, producing & nice guy skills.
Nat for  another awesome vocal performance and the infectious energy she always brings.
Top people are hard to find and I’m eternally grateful to have collaborated with so many on this app and look forward to another fruitful year creating great music with great people.
This Sound Society gives you ….

The Tower 

V1
She looked across the reservoir 
Where she stood for many  years 
The Cupid of this 2nd city
With romance marriage & tears 
And if wasn’t for the tower I wouldn’t be here right  now 
It where my parents eyes meet on a dance floor somehow 

Ch
Come on …let’s  meet at The Tower
What a time to be alive 
Come on …. Let’s meet at The Tower 
walk , bus, tram or drive 
Come on. Feel the power 
Welcome to the Tower

V2
To all them happy endings & tales of the reser  banks
This is our song we are singing to send love with a massive thanks 
She had Bowie, New Order, The Smiths, The Who just to name a few 
From the 50s, 60s, 70s,  80s 90s  what decade were  you 

Finish on a double chorus ..
