Duration: 4 min 1 s
Description: Missionaries, go home! (Track #3 from the last Brahms’ 3rd Racket album, Gretchen Corbett)

great produced track, nice catchy song, well-recorded vocal !

You have a very cool voice, love the production!

Really cool, hypnotic feel to this one. I loved the vocals, and mix of piano and guitar, well composed and executed, David :)

Great instrumentation. Really hear the love in this track

Yes, this is probably alternative rock, to answer your question. But who cares for genres? It is awesome!

I could imagine Mr David Bowie singing this:)

another awesome track - your output is amazing, the quality of your songwriting even more so!

I kept a promise for you 
I wish you would just keep it 
You try and run straight from it 
You try to make decisions 
You knew that it would hurt me
Yet you act like I don’t care 
I’m tired of decisions 
And all of your despair

I kept a promise for you 
I kept it neat and tidy
The same day that I promised 
You broke all of my Psyche 
You went and held his hand 
And let him guide you right to 
The front door of his car
You didn’t even try to 
Think of me when you are 
Think of me when you will be 
I’m here I’m waiting for you 
I’m here still with our promise

I kept a promise for you 
I wish you would just keep it 
You try and run straight from it 
You try to make decisions 
You knew that it would hurt me
Yet you act like I don’t care 
I’m tired of decisions 
And all of your despair

Promise.

Kiss my ass

Nutcase

Imaginary Boy

walking myself past idols, when I met a grey man
who rounded himself by titles, held ten rings on his hand

he told me there’s nothing written, just take what you want for your life
rounded the truth to fit in, his pocketbook

no i won't fall in line, said I'm just not that kind

but what are you crying over? he was one imaginary boy
he really was no one special, he was one imaginary boy
lost in a human vacuum, he was one imaginary boy
what are you crying over? he was one imaginary boy

walking myself past idols, when this man said to me
you mustn’t forget what you came for, challenge your destiny

he told me there’s nothing sacred, it all ends the same in your life
a funeral that’s postdated, but always arrives

watch them gather in line, with a world that's contrived

but what are you crying over? he was one imaginary boy
he really was no one special, he was one imaginary boy
lost in a human vacuum, he was one imaginary boy
what are you crying over? he was one imaginary boy

Imaginary Boy

The Long Road To The Middle

Lyrics:

To understand Fear and Power
You have to understand
Anxiety can turn a Soul Sour

Every heartbeat could be the very last
Every Action could be the final task

But how many sunsets will I watch before that end?
It could be just one, so I've got to mend

I'm going Mask Off
I'm throwing hands down!
Tired of pretending
In a world that's ending

I'm going Mask Off!
Telling the whole town
Watching the red skies dawn as the world drowns

I'm going Mask Off!
I'm Telling the whole town
You better get your life right
Cause I'm going Mask Off!

To understand time and its passing
The 1st rule is no reverse, forward everlasting
Precious moments are being wasted fearing
An end result that's certain and endearing.

But how many sunrises will you watch before that end?
It could be just one, so we've got to mend

I'm going Mask Off
I'm throwing hands down!
Tired of pretending
In a world that's ending

I'm going Mask Off!
Telling the whole town
Watching the red skies dawn
As the world drowns

Cause I'm going Mask Off!

Mask Off

i've been searching for so long
that i don't know what i should know
i don't know what they think i think they think that i should know

and i'll come up to breathe for air
you push my head down tell me that life isn't fair
memories, memories, memories

i've been searching for so long

So Long

Rock And Roll (remix)

David J. Kemper is a composer & producer from Chicago, Illinois, city of big shoulders, (former) hog butcher to the world, and home of Nelson Algren, Carl Sandburg, John Dillinger and Al Capone.  It has been speculated (by Mr. Kemper) that the gritty, rough and tumble energy of the streets from whence he hails has given extra bite and backbone to the sounds that he comes up with.  It is a theory, anyway.  Don’t think.  Just listen.  

The music featured here is but a modest selection from the ever-growing DJK repertoire, solo releases (Wet Work), as well as his "other" band/project/whatever, Brahms' 3rd Racket.
