Roberto B (@mgxloop and @volt5000) and I are glad to present "Space Dust, as track 4 in our new collaborative album of 2022. It includes vocal samples selected from free Internet sources and mixed by Roberto B in MAGIX.

The track was created in collaboration on 30 December 2021 and 4 January 2022 (initial and subsequent mix and recording in GarageBand and Logic Pro X by Alex M), 5 January and 23 January 2022 (further additions, arrangement, mix and recording in MAGIX by Roberto B), and 29 January 2022 (final additions, arrangement, mix and recording in GarageBand and Logic Pro X by Alex M), and posted here on SoundCloud on 30 January 2022 (by Alex M).

The artwork cover for the track zooms into one part/section of an oil painting by Roberto B of 4 January 2022, and was cropped and annotated with text by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 5 January 2022 - in coordination and agreement with Roberto B.

Thank you for our collaborative music, once again, Roberto!

Duration: 6:27 minutes

Space Dust - Roberto B & Alex M

It's been a while since eddyoffline and I did a collab.  Mostly because he's always offline.  This one finally came together though.  I have never really played Reggae before and it shows. Thanks to eddy for sending me this track.  He plays an awesome bass in this as well as a solid rhythm guitar to hold things together.

What began as a prosaic comment evolved into an enriching collaboration.  Our friend and Soundcloud poet laurate Peter joins us on a fishing voyage.  Seagull, not content to do a simple voice over, remixes the track and places us on a fishing boat, the sea a bit rough, the gulls impatient for part of the catch, and Peter not just reading but dynamically narrating what he is experiencing on the deck of the ship.  What an honor to work with these artists enlarging on our previous collaboration.  Please check out more of Seagull's music @farout-music-studio, and Peter's poignant songs and poetry @user-264930040

My sanctuary from archive gleans
The gentle times, wherein my mind
Recalls a childhood spent in dreams
Of bobbing boats on ocean spied.

Here, the call of a benevolent sea
The briny, perfumed honesty
Of adolescent memories.

But whence this salty desert sea
Where once the skinny trawler plied?
Plastic water ocean streams
Where finny, swimmy fish should lie.

Silenced of the chuggy motors
Decimated by their quotas
Where the haddock, cod and herring bloaters?

The factory ships that hoovered clean
Of scaly friends the sea main wide.
Its cheaply speckled high protein
Squandered as the herring gull cried.

Where the fishers, where the boats?
Where the nets, and yellow rubber coats?
Where the pots, and lines and corky floats?

...wherein my mind
Recalls a childhood spent in dreams
Of bobbing boats on ocean spied.
Why, they set sail for the past it seems,
Upon tomorrow's ebbing tide.

One In 5/4

This is my first collab work with the great Ian Greaves aka IPG1. The basis of the remix is the same bassline as in the song 'Authenticity'. I had to adapt it to the tempo of Ian's rap. But it fits very well and sounds pretty 'rockin'' overall.
Thanks Ian for this great open collab offer!

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 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 ya

Purple Microdot The Allure - IPG1 & OMCB

The underground strikes back.
This is not another TikTok loop.
This is filth, rotting hands on the decks, corrupting the fake gods of viral fame

Sabotage

I am a finger-style guitarist living on the Texas high plains.  At the core of my music is melody that is inspired and informed by my Christian faith, family, friends, and countless influences through the years from the great composers, to jazz, folk, rock, Latin, Celtic, and the many fine musicians I have come to love on the Cloud, some I have been privileged to collaborate with.  Thanks for stopping by to have a listen. Comments are always welcome. Feel free to click on the picture of any track to learn more about it.
