names | demo | one.one

New cover! I've been holding onto this one for quite some time now, and I've finally tuned it up enough that it's ready to share. It's my take on an 80's smash hit: 'I Ran' by "A Flock of Seagulls". Those of you who've followed me for a while know that I love doing my own versions of older songs—Wandering Star & Teardrop for example—and I enjoyed toying with the aesthetic of this one. It was especially challenging learning and recording the guitar part at the end. Overall, I think it turned out really well.

Consider this a nice little snack to hold you over while I finish up my full length album, which I'm hoping to release near the end of the summer.

Share around to show support! Spotify and iTunes links will be posted ASAP.

Much love,
Alden Evoke

names | demo | four

You are my tesseract
Each hour in my day
Every frame, for a second
Two years, or a lifetime
Two octaves
Each and every key therein
I know not what I do
But I do it all on your behalf
Thank you for listening

Lyrics:

Twenty four more
Twenty four more
Twenty four more
My body is a beacon of contagion
My body is a beacon
Oh, I’ll fade
I’ll fall; I’ll fade
I’ll run; oh yeah
Twenty four more

They gotta clean the cages
Everybody out for an age or two
Look at all that I made for you
Wash your dirty faces
Like a plaintive sabertooth
Don’t complain if it ain’t the truth

Alright; all rise. 
I’ll wade
Twenty four more steps closer to the grave
Oh, I’ll fall; I’ll run
Twenty four more steps closer to the sun

Clash on, clash on
Pain with the pleasure tacked on
Pastiche of a day long gone
C’est la vie; I’ve got a fatal weakness
I’ve been flayed to pieces
Warm waves will invade the beaches
Okay, okay, okay

Alright; all rise. 
I’ll wade
Twenty four more steps closer to the grave
Oh, I’ll fall; I’ll run
Twenty four more steps closer to the sun

Twenty four more
Twenty four more
Twenty four more

And my body isn’t. 
Didn’t wanna
And I got it, now I’m getting it
And my body isn’t
Nobody
I’m a failure at sail in a maelstrom
And a body isn’t
Didn’t wanna
I'm a tool or a fool or an idiot
But that body isn’t
Nobody
But I don’t know me like you do

Alright; all rise. 
I’ll wade
Twenty four more steps closer to the grave
Oh, I’ll fall; I’ll run
Twenty four more steps closer to the sun

Cara Leigh - Ebb & Flow

"I think of myself as a naturalist no matter the palette," says Lori Scacco, the New York multi-instrumentalist, composer, and electronic musician whose new album, 'Desire Loop,' is Mysteries of the Deep's third full-length LP.

Natural indeed: Scacco's music effuses warmth, enveloping listeners like a gentle embrace. Her first album, 'Circles,' was released in the early aughts on Eastern Developments, an imprint co-founded by Guillermo Scott Herren, aka Prefuse 73. She spent much of the interim period composing music for performance, film, and classical ballet, influences audible throughout 'Desire Loop.'

Flush with incandescent scree, bubbly synthesizer, and easygoing dulcet tones, the album's simplicity belies its emotional impact. At times — "Cosmographia" and "Other Flowers," for instance — Scacco's songwriting approaches a therapeutic purity that feels nearly virtuous, immaculate. This is by design: she wrote this album as counterpoint to today's destructive political landscape . "I had to create an empathic means of access for myself, and in turn, for the listener, using the core of all that I value as my way into the music,” she explains.

"I wanted to provide a vehicle for the listener to impart their own emotional experience without imposing my own meaning. I found myself returning to that space over and over again.” After listening to 'Desire Loop,' we expect that you will, too.
