Singer/songwriter David Husted's much anticipated 2nd solo CD, "In the Dust of this Planet", offers a compelling collection of musical images and a rich, deep listening experience. Intricately produced, modern rock,  intertwined with powerful lyrics.

This album contains songs with listenable, smart and twisting lyrics. His sound proves time and time again to be immediate, innovative and involved.  He adds all the right ingredients.  His latest album is no exception.  

"Building up more neural binds, rushing forward losing time
Upon the tendrils of my sparring fickle mind
May I glow inside your happiness"......

" Our Judgement lines up on the wrong streets
Dodging flying rocks and other credibilities
Blind poverty pilfering treats
Ranks of talking heads salivate on the fiery scene".......

"If you feel that close in cloy give me a shout
How bout that high bye loud as you run out?
can you see across the vast?
muddy puddle pocketful of doubt?"......

In the Dust of this Planet

"Moods 'n Waves"

They say different moods come in waves, and that was something I had in mind when making this song! Also if you listen carefully, you may recognize a familiar sound or two:) 

I used two virtual instruments here: the synth lead, bass and the keyboard all come from Arturia Mini-V (emulating the ever-so-lovely classic Minimoog synthesizer), and the drum track was programmed mainly with the EG Pulse drum machine/sampler for iOS, using the 707 drum kit.

This was played using a 37-key Korg microKEY Air midi keyboard as a midi controller. Don't ask what the chords are.. I have no idea:) I just started stacking voices and chords on top of each other and this is where I landed. 

Recorded and mixed in Cubase using iZotope Neutron. Mastered with iZotope Ozone.
 
Have a nice weekend!

Across the bay
Many many many miles away
See a crescent moon
Reflected in a field of poppies bloomed

Take a step into this vision, soon
Grab a flower and throw it at the moon

(YOU)
Don’t ask me how you’re gonna get there soon
(Don’t ask me, don’t ask me, do)
(YOU)
You might as well throw a flower at the moon

Throw a flower, a flower, at the moon
Throw a flower, a flower, at the moon

Save our wrecks
Oh then, say the best
Get it off your chest
Just another shipwreck

Another shipwreck
Get it off your chest
Another shipwreck
Get it off your chest

This song is one of next mini album [where]
I’ve been writing songs about world  I see and spirit.

Huu

It’s pouring down hard out side
It’s pouring down hard in side

My angel whisper me
You don’t stop thinking
You don’t stop judgement
That binds you
That binds you

How come It’s rain
How come It’s rain
How come I’m wait 
How come I’m wait

You know
You know
Really what you want
Really what you want

How come It’s rain
How come It’s rain
How come I’m wait 
How come I’m wait

You know
You know
Really what you want
Really what you want

外は激しく土砂降り
心は激しく土砂降り
天使が囁く
君は考え続ける
君は判断し続ける
それが君を縛っている
本当は君は知っている
本当は君は知っている

The Order of Things by Garddwr Porffor & Nadia Selvaggi

Some folk are deeply rooted by nature and feel a profound and lasting connection to different regions, towns, and places.  I read this story about a town in central Pennsylvania that had a coal fire burning under it for years and years and years (since 1962!).  Many refused to leave the area despite the fire.  I couldn’t get it out of my head; so it turned itself into a song.  The town is called Centralia. 


This song is called “Hell Town”.      

………“When they lay our bodies down beneath that burning ground we’ll be in that lazy smoke curling up the trees”

If you are curious and have read this far: I posted the lyrics below. 

Thank You.........Have a great night.....Dave

Hell Town
by David Husted

Fifty years ago on Sunday
There was a fire at the old town throw     
Ignited up the coal seam setting off a devil’s chain
1,400 souls told to go

Decades later that fire still burns
Tourist gawk at twisted, buckled 61
And old Centralia’s empty lonely streets
Yet a handful who still call it home

We live up in Hell Town, We’re never gonna come down.
Until we’re just a charred memory
When they lay our bodies down beneath that burning ground
We’ll be in that lazy smoke curling up the trees 

Tom remembers 62 he wore the red and blue
Just doin clean-up for the Holiday
“They Lit up that landfill, it spidered down a coal sill”
“Fire still burning through that maze”
Now Carl and Helen claim the fire ain’t a problem
“Won’t find it winding down this side of the town” 
“But even if it do son, this much is true, 
I still ain’t leaving my home” 

We live up in Hell Town, We’re never gonna come down.
Until we’re just a charred memory
When they lay our bodies down beneath that burning ground
We’ll be in that lazy smoke curling up the trees 

We always liked Centralia since we were old enough to stand it
Their nostalgia shines a fine golden hue
“If you stepped outside your house and your car refused to start”
“The neighbor would come out and find a way”

We live up in Hell Town, We’re never gonna come down.
Until we’re just a charred memory
When they lay our bodies down beneath that burning ground
We’ll be in that lazy smoke curling up the trees 

We live up in Hell Town, We’re never gonna come down.
Until we’re just a charred memory
When they lay our bodies down beneath that burning ground
We’ll be in that lazy smoke curling up the trees

Does anyone remember a game called “Clue”?  Here comes a totally new version of the game.

Number five in the queue: Ms. Scarlett

Have a Fantastic Day and thanks for giving this one a spin!!

This song is called “The Un-Describable You”

“Along magic streets. Words I wish I said. Receding shadows; Those beautiful hours with you; With you; With You”.

Thank You for listening.

The Undescribable You

The Lyrics speak for themselves.........

DON QUIXOTE 

I’m a welter weight refusing to go down 
Aversions left hook trying to knock me out 
mind’s a pummeled , tunneled 
marsh-mellow with no clues 

Dave’s a nomad, oh Hell Yes 
Well, maybe, I don’t know, but perhaps 
Hot and brooding rascal 
never ever willing to be found 

If you feel that close in cloy give me a shout 
How bout that high bye loud as you run out? 
can you see across the vast? 
muddy puddle pocketful of doubt 

chorus 
D B7 Em7 C7 
Aftershock of Happiness 
Groundless ground of Don Quixote 

Maybe after the earth quakes 
He’ll pick up your pieces 
Maybe his smile is for you 

Got to love that crazy 
Reveling pilgrim 
Groundless ground of Don Quixote 

V2 
Don’t wanna be another corporate ass 
with a smoked filled mouth of cinderblock and ash 
Never truly hated, but barely tolerated 
SuperMan 

I like a mustard, hot sauce coleslaw sandwich 
Writing poems in pajamas about life’s twisted origami 
and maybe next life while I’m curled up in her belly 
I’ll choose to be a beach bum guru rockabilly 

or perhaps I’ll be a Martian MacGyver 
or Vulnerable Lama, staring at the Kama 
dashed across the rocks 
Insignificant as God

la mancha

Don Quixote

A deep bow of respect to that universal theme called “Love”.

the village

You Wear Everything Well

Inside my house of mirrors 
I come into view when I’m looking at you 
I’m not so far gone I can’t remember what’s true 

Spinning dervish in the heat, smile the smile of underneath 
Conversing with your mystery when no one else is listening 
Stuck so deep this sweet love weeps 

Yet in-between something new is whispering 
There’s nothing left that I can bring 

Are you listening? Yes, I’m listening 
Stuck on a Velcro wall of memories 
You stripped me down, 

And took away my in-completes 
Then curled around me tenderly 

You’re worth everything, you’re worth everything 
And if I’m crazy; SO BE IT! 
‘Cause you turned to me, yes, you turned to me 

************************************************* 

Through long forgets and tired fights 
Solace flashes across the sky 

This world’s silent naked brilliance, her legs, her hips, her valleys 
More than a painted picture in a gallery 
That place where waves kiss, against my worthiness 

Where all of my anxieties swarm 
And fear insists on switching forms 

Building up more neural binds, rushing forward losing time 
Upon the tendrils of my sparring fickle mind 
May I glow inside your happiness 

Night gown slipping to the ground 
I feel compassion’s tender growl 

Keeping promises, entering mysteries 
How can love return when she never left? 
Sleeping softly in this bed

the bedroom

Sleeping Softly In This Bed

Deep bow of gratitude to you for giving my music a listen, for liking, for commenting and/or for sharing when any given song resonates with you.  You help create a community that lifts music out of the nooks and crannies and allows it to be heard a little bit more than it otherwise might have been.  Thank You sincerely for that. YOU ROCK!

I love to create music.  It is really that simple.
