Shimmer [Eventide H9 Demo]

Quick test of the new resonator algorithm from eventide exclusive on the H9 pedal... sounds great!

Resonator - [Eventide H9 Demo]

Trying to learn the Elektron A4 by limiting myself to recreating a tune without any other gear :) It was a fun experiment... but the original is still the best! 

I skipped the solo at the end cause I ran out of p-locks!

Dawn Chorus

Sing Every Little Song You Know (capo III)
V1 
G                                           C
I grew up down in a small town
G
Where the narrow roads mapped my life
              Am                          C                         D
Where I sang with an open heart in central park
              Am                             C                         D
Where her soft, sweet words played strings in my heart

  CH 
            C                             Csus2
Oh The sunshine hits the same
         G             G/F#             Em7
And the wind still whispers the names
     Am             C          D                  
Of every face in every frame 
           C                                      Csus2
Everything that's small should grow
                         G                 F#       Em7
Everything you feel, well it isn't so
C                         D             G
But sing every little song you know 

V2 
I flew away to the big city 
Where the highways led to affairs
Where I cried when a woman's words pierced through my soul 
Where I thought I was being bought and then again sold 
  
CH 
  
Bridge 
Bm                                              Em
I don't want a heart filled with anger 
                         C                             D
I want to have fun, shine like the sun
Cadd9        D               Aadd9         D                  
Sing every song that's ever been sung 
  
Final Verse 
Well I need to get back to my hometown
Where the roads need rest and repair 
Where my weary heart regains some of it’s power 
Where in central park still grows all of her flowers
  
Final Chorus 
Oh the sunshine hits the same 
And the wind still whispers the names 
Of every face in every frame 
  
Everything that's small should grow 
Everything you feel well it isn't so 
Sing every little song you know 
Sing every little song you know

Sing Every Little Song You Know

Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?
Oh
It’s me?
Hahaha
…I know.

I’m a witch in the woods and I’m up to nothing good
Got my cauldron and my black cat, whatcha think about that
Yeah I’m a witch in the woods, so boy don’t bring bad vibes to my neighborhood
‘Cause I’ll fuck you up with my magic touch
You’ll learn your lesson like you should

Don’t talk to me about your patriarchy
‘Cause I’m a woman in my power, but you wanna lock me up in your tower
I turn men just like you into toads
Yeah I run with wolves and I fly with crows
Dance naked round the fire, inspired, this broom gonna take me higher
So I’ll tell you what I’m gonna do
Gonna enchant you with my belladonna witch’s brew
With a wave of my magic wand you’ll be gone before the break of dawn
It’s a full moon, baby
Don’t do nothing hasty, it’ll make you go crazy
But if you want a dare, step into my lair
Don’t be scared

I’m a witch in the woods and I’m up to nothing good
Got my cauldron and my black cat, whatcha think about that
Yeah I’m a witch in the woods, so boy don’t bring bad vibes to my neighborhood
‘Cause I’ll fuck you up with my magic touch
You’ll learn your lesson like you should

I’ve seen parties and parties of knights and warriors and princes
Try to play me, try to slay me, try to keep me in the kitchen
I won’t burn, I won’t drown, no I’ll never go down
Cause I can meditate and levitate and leave you bitches on the ground
I’m more powerful than you’ll ever know
I’m exceptional, I’m invincible
I’m thousands and thousands years old
Yeah I was here when your god was born
I can harness all the elements and squash you like an elephant
So don’t give me lip if you treasure it, ‘cause boy I warned you, I’m a fucking witch

I’m a witch in the woods and I’m up to nothing good
Got my cauldron and my black cat, whatcha think about that
Yeah I’m a witch in the woods, so boy don’t bring bad vibes to my neighborhood
‘Cause I’ll fuck you up with my magic touch
You’ll learn your lesson like you should

Witch In The Woods (feat. Robyn)

"Take The Black" is an epic cinematic symphonic folk metal song that has been inspired from fantasy role play games and medieval music. The pyromancer is back and brought his shady friends. Let's assemble, take the black and bring down a bloodthirsty tyrant! 
After writing "Pyromancer" in 2021, we wanted to create some epic battle music. Everything started with an arpeggio on my acoustic guitar, when I suddenly had the idea to try something with bagpipes. Jordan's comment about medieval villagers wielding forks and shields against a tyrant has been a great lyrical prompt, so we continued on that. The arrangement grew bigger, and bigger, and soon we had to summon the whole band.

==== LYRICS ====

High above the castle walls
Lives a tyrant drenched in blood
Drop by drop, we share our strength
Til this trickle is a flood

Cut by cut he bleeds us
Til we are drained and dry
But tonight I'll lead us
Our swords and knives held high

Gathering our strength now
Together we are one
In the black we'll do our work
Until the deed is done

Fighting back for what is ours
Fighting for our lives
In the black we'll find it
In the black we'll thrive

The blackness is where strength takes hold
It's time to save our souls

We are the children of the night
Sellswords, reapers and dark knights
Let us steal the night away
And stay hidden for the day

We are the children of the night
Sellswords, reapers and dark knights
Let's assemble and attack
Take the black, I'll take the black!

(Take the black)
(Take the black)
(Take the, take the black)
(I'll take the black!)

We'll take the hills
We'll take the land 
We'll take his life with our bare hands
We'll take the night
We'll take the day
We'll take the black, take it away

We've given all that we can give
We cannot let this evil live
So we will take a life tonight
We'll take the black, we'll take what's right!

The blackness is where truth unfolds
It is time to save our souls

We are the children of the night
Sellswords, reapers and dark knights
Let us steal the night away
And stay hidden for the day

We are the children of the night
Sellswords, reapers and dark knights
Let's assemble and attack
Take the black, I'll take the black!

(Take the black)
(Take the black)
(Take the, take the black)
(I'll take the black!)

We are brothers in arms
raise swords, prepare spells and charms
Let truth and virtues reign
Our fight won't be in vain
Prepare! Behead the king!

The blackness comes to take our toll
We've sacrificed our souls

We are the children of the night
Sellswords, reapers and dark knights
Let us steal the night away
And stay hidden for the day

We are the children of the night
Sellswords, reapers and dark knights
Let's assemble and attack
Take the black, I'll take the black!

(Take the black)
(Take the black)
(Take the, take the black)
(I'll take the black!)

Take The Black

FAWM no. 13... a cheery song about a dystopian, apocalyptic future that may or may not be based on recent climate summits 😬. Wanted to go full orchestral on this, a bit like if Randy Newman had done a song with ELO...

LYRICS

Out here in the desert
We’re turning off the lights
We had a good time, baby
Now the pipes are running dry
Back in 2023, we said it would all be fine
I guess that we were wrong
And you were right

Towers in the distance
Tremble in the heat
We built our Babylon
Out of oil and concrete
Now join us on the hundredth floor
As the waters rise
Watch the little people tryin’ to survive

And it looks like the end of the world
And everyone knows it’s
The way we all chose it
And if it’s the end of the world
It can’t be denied
We all had the time of our lives

These days you will struggle
To find somewhere that’s free
From fire, flood or famine
And human misery
London’s underwater, L.A.’s smoke and dust
Seven billion vehicles slowly rust

But don’t you worry, baby
Baby, don’t despair
You didn’t think this story
Really ended there
For the lucky few (and hey that’s you!)
There’s a colony on Mars
I hear the shuttle’s waiting to depart

And it looks like the end of the world
Everyone knows it’s
The way we all chose it
And if it’s the end of the world
It can’t be denied
We all had the time of our lives

It’s been quite a ride
Now kiss it goodbye….

The End Of The World

My first gospel song; wonderful lyrics by Doug

There Will Be Singing [FAWM 2024]

music by @mdavisto and me. Lyrics by @essahumans


V1
It has many hearts
But it only lives the life of solitude
It has many minds
But it never knows what is gratitude
Pre-Ch
it lives,
it mates,
it dies,
just a lifespan of another animal
 Ch
Is that it?
Nothing more to offer, or to cover
Is that it?
All this power with no role, only one call
V2
It has many arms
Yet, it never gives any helping hand It has long history
Yet, it never had any unique stand
Pre-Ch
it lives,
It mates,
It dies,
just a lifespan of another animal
Ch
Is that it?
Nothing more to offer, or to cover
Is that it?
All this power with no role, only one call

A Creature Has Many But Offers Nothing [FAWM 2024]

She Awakes

So last night I was trying to write a song and heard the cries of my youngest. The rest is pretty much a true story, when life throws you lemons you write a song about it..

Lyrics:

Trying to write a song,
When I notice that something is wrong. It's time for my best,
Even though I can't offer a breast.
I go to check too late,
You're wide awake,
And all around the room is the feeling of impending doom!
Then you start to barf
Then you start to puke
To throw away your dinner today, To make an awful mess,
I must confess
You cause some distress,
When I find you eating away,
At things were alive one day,
So full love for you,
Even when you're covered in poo, My baby

My Baby [FAWM 2024]

Elektron Analog Four Test #1

Testing how to do CV control with the A4. CV track is used to control the Moog T3; input from that is routed to Synth Track1 on the A4 to prosess it more... Still learning the A4; this is my first elektron machine after all
