The beat (Smooth Pop Type Beat - "Done") is owned and produced by MATTHEW MAY. I gain nothing from using this beat. However, I own the song "FACE THE MUSIC" which was written by me alone. Also, the mixing of the song was done by me as well. FTM was recorded with a phone and mixed in a DAW.

Face The Music

Go My Own Way

Started as a kind of Raga--Jo created some lovely handmade words- and Stephen and his beautiful Duesenberg Guitar made some amazing droning magic to complete the vision--

TEXMEX SHAMAN: @texmex-shaman
"Always enjoy the opportunity to collaborate with Jeff and Jo. They are wizards with words and sorcerers with sound. Was happy to contribute a bit to this one."

@sonic-textures: First, there was amazing music made by STONERJAZZ. Then, I composed a poem and integrated it, surprising myself with having written the first 'love' poem in a long time - and to Snow White of all fairy-tale people! To highlight it all, TEXMEX SHAMAN made the music ring out even more beautifully. Eventually I created some artwork, inspired (by some reason I don't grasp myself at the moment) by those expensive vinyl imports from Japan. It might have to do with how much I value Jeff's and Stephen's guitar playing and creativity. It's a thrill ride to collab with those two experimental musicologists ;-)

lyrics copyright jo richter:

still wearing his headphones
in the mall's thermal flow
uranium bones
intercourse afterglow

she walks down the aisle
as light as a rainbow
sunlight on the Nile
et in arcadia ego

a bodice, a comb, eris' pear
black, red, white as snow
forces align, forces shear
a million mirrors in a row

she walks down the aisle
as light as a rainbow
sunlight on the Nile
et in arcadia ego

et  in arcadia ego- featuring Sonic Structures and Silent Stretches and TexMex Shaman

My wife Jo and I met at work, having applied for the same job and as luck would have it, we were both offered positions in the personnel department.  I was instantly attracted to her and though there was an eight year difference in age, we seemed to have a true likeness of mind, the only problem being that the two of us were in long-term relationships.  Still, this didn’t mean we couldn’t be friends and we began to spend many a happy lunch hour together. 

However, the more I got to know her, the more it became readily apparent that my feelings were much more than mere friendship.  What made every working day worthwhile were those lunch hours we’d spend together.  I simply couldn’t stop thinking about her but given our circumstances, I kept these feelings bottled up for two long years.  Eventually though, I decided to gather my courage in both hands and tell her I loved her.  To be honest, I expected to get a negative response but all she said was “We need to talk”.

We talked and talked and talked and talked about every potential eventuality but nothing ever changed the fact that I really did love her.  Despite the fact that she’d never considered the possibility of us being together, it was such a relief when she told me she was very willing to totally change the course of her life.  Talk about your heart skipping a beat…

OK, so it didn’t prove easy but neither of us has ever regretted one single thing.  Thirty five years on, we are still very much in love and this song celebrates those wonderful lunchtime meetings, sharing more and more of our feelings, growing ever close through a friendship that became a bond as close as any couple could wish to have.  We hadn’t a clue where it would go and yet here we both are.  I still cannot stop loving her.

I owe a debt of thanks to Hans and Gal who pulled out all the stops to get this song ready for Jo’s 58th birthday.  Cheers boys! (Terry Reeves)

A friendship without complications
Conversations with no need to end
No conditions between sharing moments 
Chance to smile avoid thoughts to send

Chorus:
I cannot stop, cannot stop, I cannot stop loving you
I cannot stop loving the way you move
I cannot stop loving you
I cannot stop hearing your loving groove 

Space between survives the madness 
Surrounding words no sense to see
Sharing stories sometimes sadness
Not knowing why we should let it be

Chorus

Surprise connection with a distance
No disagreement but avoid a close look
Cautions grow, can’t change persistence 
The fairytale of perfect stays in the book

Chorus

El EP arranca con "Distressor", una canción impulsada por una línea de bajo súper rítmica, acordes divertidos y vibraciones house contagiosas. El remix del trío TNC lleva la canción a un territorio más progresivo, destacando un bajo con sonido electro y agregando un lead adictivo. melodía en la segunda mitad, lo que la convierte en una reelaboración destacada que complementa la energía del original.

TAKES A LONG LIFE TO GET WISER
AND THEN YOU'LL GROW OLD AND FEEL TIRED
A POT OF GOLD IS IN THE HORIZON
THE RAINBOW WONT SHINE ON YOU,  ANYMORE

TAKE THE ROAD TAKE THE LONG WAY
AROUND WE GO ANOTHER NEW DAY
MAKE BELIEVE IT'S ALWAYS SUNDAYS
AND HIT THE ROAD

(chorus)
EVERYDAY     EVERY-DAY
EVERYDAY     IN EVERY WAY

IT'S SOMETIMES ROUGH IT'S SOMETIMES LONELY
THE ANGRY SKY IT FEELS CRAZY
THE POT OF GOLD IS ON THE HORIZON
THE RAINBOW IT SHINES FOR YOU 

(REPEAT CHORUS)

EVERYDAY I CAN WAIT
I CAN SEE PAST TOMORROW
EVERYDAY I CAN PLAY
IN MY HEAD I THINK I'M DREAMING

MAKE BELIEVE IT'S ALWAYS SUNDAYS
AND HIT THE ROAD

(REPEAT CHORUS)
