"Heroic duck rescue by mi esposa" inspired music. She discovered the fowl beast on it's back, squawking and squrming in the late spring sun at the "Dollars Tree," in the parkng lot. Hot asphalt. We didn't think there was any chance.

Love At Dusk

Use to listen to this album quite a a lot, and still do. I like learning how to play songs and arranging them acoustically sometimes. I believe the raw, bare bones is all a really good song needs. I love the passion in these lyrics and melodies.   

Lyrics
In Candy's room, there are pictures of her heroes on the wall
But to get to Candy's room, you gotta walk the darkness of Candy's hall
Strangers from the city call my baby's number and they bring her toys
When I come knocking, she smiles pretty, she knows I wanna be Candy's boy
There's a sadness hidden in that pretty face
A sadness all her own from which no man can keep Candy safe
We kiss, my heart rushes through my brain
And the blood rushes in my veins
The fire rushes towards the sky
And we go driving, driving deep into the night
I go driving deep into the light in Candy's eyes
She says, "Baby if you wanna be wild
You got a lot to learn, close your eyes
Let them melt, let them fire, let them burn"
'Cause in the darkness, there'll be hidden worlds that shine
When I hold Candy close, she makes those hidden worlds mine
She has fancy clothes and diamond rings
She has men who give her anything she wants
But they don't see
That what she wants is me
Oh, and I want her so
I'll never let her go, no-no-no
She knows that I'd give
All that I've got to give
All that I want, all that I live
To make Candy mine
Tonight

lyrics (Parental Advisory):
------------------------------
You're so strage to me

you got offended so fast
you're not built to last
you're made of sugar, butter and shit

You think it's only you
you cry like a bitch
your job it's only to abuse

whatever i say is wrong
your life is like a crappy song
no reason to talk to you anymore!

Jamnuary 2024 (Day 1) - Overcast

As part of the "Jamuary" Challenge organised by @starsmightyfine here's our latest magic-themed track, Archon Mode. It refers to an overflowing of arcane energy and power in a fantasy story sense. We used Reason Compact for a lot of the sounds. Art by Masha using free resources by Canva. 

Synth work by Rob Ulysses (@rob-ulysses) and Masha Solo (@masha-solo).

Happy 2024, everyone!

Strumming on an old forgotten spell

A past lover keeps showing up in my dreams and reminding me of my failures.
From my new LP " Low Profile". My best tracks from 2023. Thanks for listening!

Lyrics:
I get my melancholy straight from the IV drip
A Xanax, a red eyed flight on the sky ship
That's when you appeared
I'd been gorging myself on 
Televised violence
It's like synconized swimming
You were grinning while the plane was rapidly descending
(You smiled all the way down)
The atmosphere was colorless
Odorless
Void of all surface and all texture
I'm reveling in my psychosis
You reminded me I never finished my
Junkyard magnum opus
You still show up in my dreams

We were entering into 
An impressionist painted landscape
With a language that we just didn't understand
You reminded me that I'm a big believer
In blindly believing
And I need to start drinking in
A little bit more in what I'm seeing
We're like suburban dadaist
Coming in, out of the rain
My mind was racing
Like those 808 beats
There all the same
Well, that's the way the Goddamn wheel rolls
You headed off into the night
You never told me to change the angle of the light
You still show up in my dreams

"You never even had it even when you had it your hands,"
You've got to bring it right down
To where the sideways ends in the light
I'm digging down deep
I'm digging down slow
I'm striking oil 
Or the fires down below
You still show up in my dreams

You Still Show Up In My Dreams

Dear friends, I can't help that I simply have to continue to protest against all the violence in the world. It's only getting worse and worse - the invasion of Ukraine has escalated the number of bombings and violence in the Middle East is increasing. This is not the children's fault!

Kids Must Feel Safe

When the children are leaving their home
they must always be safe without any threats
wherever they may be - in our world
They say mom now I am home

The Year twenty three has not been good
for the kids in our world - a lot of kids have died
since villains have sent - bombs on their homes
the kids want to be safe

The year twenty four gives us hope
that the rulers of the world finally realized
that it is not ok to take any life
they can’t blame any war for that

The people must cool down
since all hatred create violence at once
this is an important lesson for all kids on earth
and the sun will shine on us

Kids Must Feel Safe
