Toujours et Encore (Always and again)

My humble contribution to the popular musical magna opera that may be understood as 'Lost in space.'

Far From Home

I am honored and thrilled to put some orchestration with this beautiful and wrenching Jo Richter poem.(Sonic Structures and Silent Stretches) A big Thanks to Jo and to all you wanderers that pass this way😊
For those that may wonder, a Les Paul, an e-bow, a crybaby, a Zoom fx for the crazy reverb, and a deep mind 6 Synthesizer were employed. 137 bpm


lyrics / copyright jo richter:

wir konnten doch nicht auf kinder schießen
auf alte männer und frauen
wir konnten doch nicht der befehlslust, dem süßen
locken der furcht vertrauen

wir konnten doch nicht mit diesen eigenen händen
kinder und greise töten
hinschlachten, zersieben, erwürgen, schänden
die erde mit herzblut röten

wir konnten doch nicht menschen vernichten
die atmeten wie wir
ihr sprecht von recht, militärgerichten
und letzten worten hier

nun gut, ein einfaches wort vor dem verstummen
ist uns noch gegeben:
wir achten in der verdrehten, krummen
logik des krieges das leben

justification of the deserters

we could not kill children, the elderly
just because we submitted to the satisfaction of following orders and were lured by fear

we could not commit these cruel deeds
with these our own hands

we could not destroy life
breathing like us
you talk about justice, military tribunals
and final words

okay, our final word is this:
in the words logics of war
we honour life

A note from Jo:

Note: The picture is based on a photograph I have taken of an item of art I noticed in the yard of Spielzeugmuseum Nürnberg. Unfortunately, I cannot track the individual - probably pre-adult - creator of this altered traffic sign. It was part of an exhibition on traffic signs for justice. ttps://museen.nuernberg.de/spielzeugmuseum…echtigkeit-2168 To quote that website: " Die Motive basieren auf der internationalen Bildersprache des Straßenverkehrs. Sie sind das Ergebnis der 4. Gipfelkonferenz der Kinder, die 2021 im Memorium Nürnberger Prozesse stattfand. Unter künstlerischer Leitung von Johannes Volkmann entwickelten Kinder und Jugendliche aus aller Welt die Gerechtigkeitsschilder. Sie wollen als internationale Symbole darauf hinweisen, ein gerechteres Zusammenleben zwischen den Menschen und auch der Umwelt anzustreben und zu fördern."

Rechtfertigung der Deserteure (A poem written and recited by Jo Richter)

(Written by Terry Reeves)

I think it’s important to say that a lot more women than you think have had one or multiple miscarriages. It’s just that it is a subject not often talked about because of the very personal pain that the couple go through. The unborn life has no contact with anybody else except the mother and the emotions are often only remembered by the mother and father.
When Jo and I were expecting our second child we were very excited and looking forward to having another Reeves in our growing family. I will never forget the day that we were told we were going to lose the baby and once told, left sitting in an open A & E waiting area having to cope with all our raw emotions and the prospect of the impending loss amongst the rest of the other patients.
Jo had to go through a painful operation to terminate the pregnancy and it is a day she will never forget. We were a family of three planning being a family of four having now to plan being a family of three recovering from an invisible loss and explain it to our young son.
It was an extremely difficult time but we were fortunate that after a few years we did have two more children. Jo tells me that although it is difficult to explain the connection she had with the unborn child that the presence of life inside her will never be forgotten.
I felt I couldn’t let this moment in our lives pass by without acknowledging our unborn child in some way. The rollercoaster of emotions we shared at that time from euphoria at increasing our family to devastation and bereavement at our loss were felt intensely only by Jo and myself played it’s part in forging the strong bond we have had throughout our relationship. (Terry Reeves)

Two giving chance for more to love
Sharing excitement of a life that grew
Future moments by imagination
Holding tightly to a dream, not knowing who

The moment will always be there

No blessing from a hand of friendship 
Could change the feeling of love untried
A desperation of disappearing contact
Sixteen weeks of wonder with a life inside

The moment will always be there
Will always be there x2

Will always be there x3

It’s hard to share the tears of life unborn
Expectations waiting, true feelings strong
Growing three to four into a family together 
Not knowing where to be or why we belong

The moment will always be there
Will always be there x2

Many questions asked reasons who or why
Emotional growth but no name it’s true
An everlasting memory impossible to share
Changing 4 back to 3 kept just between two

The moment will always be there
Will always be there
Will always be there
Will always be there

FOUR TO THREE - CRIPPLE CLUB & HANS ALBERS

Scotty: lyrics, vocals
Tommy: bass, noise

Scottyottydopaliscious. Never insipid.
Instinctually primal to drop a rhyme that's seditious.
Surreptitious, I am not, expeditious, I am.
Repetitious about fictitious and pernicious laid plans
by the man, and by 'the man', I mean those we've elected,
who persuade simple minds and keep the wealthy protected. 
But at what cost? Our true wealth; health, education. 
A teacher's salary is what they earn on vacation.
When will we lose patience like it's homophone due to cuts,
get the guts to stand up to everything that's unjust?
Vigilance is a must nowadays or we're fucked but
it would be nice for once to place the ice after just.

Under your ass I will light a fire. Grab your device.
A quick search will suffice to learn the facts of this vice
and maybe it will entice, inspire masses to fight
for paradise from the present hell we suffer in life. 

Don't think twice, it's not alright, we've had enough of their tripe.
I'll be concise with the knowledge I'm about to recite like
class sizes erupting, slashed courses disrupting
development of thinking critically, our children need something
other than mathematics. Don't get me started on how it's tragic
that my kids are disadvantaged simply 'cause they're not Catholic.
Our government remains emphatic in defending their lies.
Pointing fingers elsewhere while they aim to privatize
education and healthcare. Agenda aimed for the welfare
of the wealthy. Who you think receives the promised tax breaks?
So get the facts straight. Dig 'em up before they get buried.
Their distinction of truth is now black, beyond blurry,
so let's hurry, for real, 'cause we're running out of time.
So let us storm queen's park like 1789
instead of hopes for divine intervention. 
End of lesson. 
May I mention again the theme that I am stressin'?

Under your ass I will light a fire. Grab your device.
A quick search will suffice to learn the facts of this vice 
and maybe it will ignite the masses all to unite
and fight for their right to live equal in paradise.

I've wanted to rework this one for a while now, so in the absence of new ideas (being 'all Tarot'd out' lol), I've redone this as a house track and added some vocal samples.
Free to download if you like it :)

Thank you for listening ♥

Dedicated to my 2 fingers and 4 tendons, can't scratch my ear or play octaves on my piano or play clarinette correctly;. Thanks to this accident I learned how to compose electronic music and I love doing this more than ANYTHING.

Ode To My Lost Finger (Instrumental)

LYRICS:

I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing

I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing

I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing, I did a bad thing

I think I did
As plain as day
I gotta find
A better way
It's not kosher
It's not okay
Throwing a life
Fully away
Actions define
What thoughts defy
Aiming for
A big blue sky
Looking up
Standing on ground
The mind is free
The body bound

Bad Thing

Lyrics:
This that acid drop - mind corrupt
Drop that purple microdot
Fear not - if the time stops -
and the clock refuse to TikTok
Full throttle — speeding - roadblock
brain cell just don’t give a fuck
Tie dye - sandals — dreadlocks
Woodstock — type — Hip-Hop
mesmerized by the kilowatt
my brain — become a hotspot
Am I human — Am I God —
preparing for — the aftershock
the aftershock — the aftershock
Hell yeah — and why not — it’s still that purple
microdot — microdot — microdot
Chorus
Think twice before you say no
Charisma — come on let’s go
The moves — without Ego
The smile — or the combo
It’s good times — and Convo
Cant avoid it - so you want some more
The allure — of an outlaw (X3)
Guitar riffs and jazz lines — like rainbows and sunshine
No limits no guidelines — I’ll start off with a peace sign
don’t even try to undermine — Or I’ll peal back your hairline —
Love it when the stars align — You know I’mer get mine
time stop — brain cells begin to pop
From the bottom to the top — a mental — hotspot
Mesmerizing sound — kicking kilowatts
From that purple microdot
God status — here we go at last —
from the bottom to the top — break that hour glass —
So why you think your teeth are shattering — so damn fast
It a personal experience — a one man class
No sleep for those who know — the afterglow
Are Y’all ready for the show — Y’all ready for the show…..
no malice establish — and it’s hitting on the spot
A God’s made — for love — that — purple microdot
This that aftershock — that aftershock — that aftershock
From that acid drop — Mind corrupt — Mind corrupt
time stop — brain cell begin to pop
From the bottom to the top — a mental — hotspot
Mesmerizing sound — kicking kilowatts
From that purple microdot — From that purple microdot
——Chorus ——
Feeding off the sound like a starving vampire
music in my blood turns a spark into fire
The progeny of lyrics — rhythm tunes — desire
Made to Pierce your soul — like a suit of Bob-wire
Hang tight and ride this storm of — forget me Nut
Left-brain — right track — it’s called — purple microdot
And you know I’ll be back here — from — time to time
Fucking with your mind — at the drop of a dime
Underground— under the tongue— paint a mental picture
yo—you’ll never really know when the acids gonna hit y

Purple Microdot - The Allure / IPG1 Collaboration / See the description! Enjoy! 💣❤️️✌️

This started off as an exercise in utilising all five fingers when playing right hand patterns on the keyboard. I devised a pattern with a simple bass progression and have been developing it over nearly two months of repetition and embellishment. The overall end result comes out somewhat differently every time I play it, but I thought todays version finally felt worthy of sharing with a wider audience. Thankyou for taking time out to listen.
