Amateurish stuff about the Silmarillion, no intent to infringe JRRT

Performed by myself in December of 2022 onward on a Roland FA-08 from memory by ear with no sheet music, as one track with 2 hands.

Silmarillion Stuff

Essentially every track of mine that is entirely my own composition including tracks based on other concepts, that are not merely arrangements but truly original in nature.

Original Compositions

Movie or TV Soundtrack Covers of Mine (not Monetized)

Bangers is (almost) everything that has 350 plays or more.

My Bangers

The vocal tracks started with The Fool's Jest (#257) and continue on into the present day.  Gradually getting better about process with these.

Amateurish stuff about the Silmarillion, no intent to infringe JRRT

Performed by myself in December of 2022 on a Roland FA-08 from memory by ear with no sheet music, as one track with 2 hands.  Original composition, but not monetizing this because I dont wan't New Line or Tolkien Estate to come crush me.
Finrod+Galadriel has to do with the passage in the Silmarillion where Finrod tells Galadriel things are about to go badly.
The following paraphrase:
"Now Finrod Felagund had no wife, and Galadriel asked why this should be."
"And Finrod answered: 'An oath I too must swear, and be free to fulfill it, and go into darkness.  Nor shall anything of my realm endure that a son should inherit.' 
"

FINROD+GALADRIEL

Amateurish stuff about the Silmarillion, no intent to infringe JRRT


The refrain follows the first four lines of the poem of the Eärendillinwë that Frodo heard when he walked off for a minute during the evening in Rivendell and suddenly heard Elvish voices chanting.  The remainder of the piece is intended to shift into sort of a theme of the Silmarillion overall (sort of a cinematic theme) and doesn't follow the rest of poem's words.
Sharp listeners will note a few influences:

1) the spots where it seems to pause are the short bit of music when Aragorn tries to give back the Evenstar to Arwen, shortly after the halfway point of the Two Towers movie (when we had discs it was a minute or 2 into the 2nd disc after Eowyn gives Aragorn the rabbit stew ("The Evenstar does not wax or wane...").  With a triumphal major-key phrase-ending intended for Beren & Luthien that differs from the Two Towers phrase.

2) a few places I borrow from the Returner's Hideout theme in Final Fantasy 6.

Eärendillinwë 2022 06 13 Rough

My favorite track of all of Maurice-Alexis Jarre's Shogun soundtrack, is sadly not on the shorter version of the audio CD of the soundtrack.  Much later it was included on Intrada's much longer Audio CD.

Not intended of course to infringe on Jarre or the producers of the series.

Performed by myself in December of 2022 on a Roland FA-08 from memory by ear with no sheet music, as one track with 2 hands.

This is similar to what I uploaded earlier it's just that the miniseries used horns extensively, rather than the String section voice that I played it on the FA-08 with, so I have run it through MuseScore 4's horn voice to give an impression of what it more nearly sounds like on TV.

Dissatisfaction Expands To The Available Space

A very short ambient/jazz track with some pads in it

It is sort of like, supposed to be a cutesy update of the little amusing short piano thing in Winger's apartment before he does the pushups at the beginning of Stripes(1981) with Bill Murray.  That they play for about 2 loops.  I know how to play that by ear too and get good satisfaction out of that just laughing at it.

This one per the cover art is sort of an update to Soyjak life in current-day dystopia industrialized cities or something.  He's got his little delusion graphic in his head that things are fine and reality is the smog etc.

(Well I Guess) Maybe I'll Bribe Her With Some Fruit

A probable encounter, should I ever see her again:

Her: "I need to talk to you."

Me: "Why are you malfunctioning? You're not supposed to want that!"

This builds on Whimsy #1 a little. After a period of pondering and wandering for about three months.

4-18-2023: I haven't forgotten anybody for followbacks.  My stuff rose so sharply Soundcloud's main thing is scolding me for following too many in 1-day.  So I gotta wait

later on 4-18: got the reciprocal follows done if y'all were wondering.  Cheers.

Odd Little Ways, Parte the Second

Dedicated warmly to DanikaXIX's cat Beans.

A short stroll around the dark, for those with the chops for it.

("I didn't know you were a musician."

"I'm capable of a -number- of things neither of us are aware of.
The real question remains -- are you going to cooperate with lifting the veil?"

--apocryphal)

Nite Prowl

A new version of the Eärendillinwë  that I earlier released 10 months ago, but
in pure piano form, so that people can hear the chord structure
better, with a more relaxed pace where I could put the
phrases that were missing from the first one.

When I recorded in summer 2022 I had the metronome click
on and felt rushed for time - this version puts some good
things back into it.  Those with a good ear for cinematic
music will note that I am borrowing the ending phrase partly
from a scene in Richard III (1955) with Laurence Olivier.
Those who don't know it - go watch the movie.  You'll instantly
recognize where I pulled this from.

All rights reserved to the Tolkien Estate and whoever currently
holds the music rights to the Richard III movie.  This is very
pointedly a non-monetized, free track.  Just as the earlier version.

Eärendillinwë (Piano, Alternate Phrases)

This track is not heard in the 1984 Dune Movie
It was originally performed by Toto and not released until the Expanded Soundtrack CD in 1997 by PEG
All rights reserved to the owners of the intellectual property (Toto, PEG, Dune Franchise owners, the Herbert family) etc.
This is a totally free track and is not monetized at all.

It is a rather iffy sequencing job...
But it's the thought that counts.
Since it's my 19th track it is dedicated to Dune Club Teacher Lady
DanikaXIX (Comic Book Girl 19)

Much loves

Riding The Sandworm (Toto, Instrumental Cover)

We've all been there.
Stuff is on the rocks and we have to slog through the interpersonal struggle.

A piece with repeating sections like Nite Prowl but branches into some new territory for me.

This was reprised several months later with "Luck Will Turn" (Track #87)

You're A Real Piece O'Luck

The four-part playlist link for the battle specifically is this:
soundcloud.com/doug-stoothoff/sets/of-the-fifth-battle-nirnaeth

This track is not monetized.
All rights reserved to the Tolkien Estate, New Line, etc, whoever holds all the Tolkien rights.  Completely free track.  Enjoy

A little very-to-the-point thing about the midsummer morning when forces lined up for the Battle of Unnumbered Tears.

IYKYK
if you dont check this
https://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Nirnaeth_Arnoediad

or the old fashioned way, is to find the pertinent chapter "Of The Fifth Battle..."  in the Silmarillion

Looking around soundcloud...
A bunch of other metal things go into the main course of the battle.
This here is more of a study of when they were initially hopeful at the start.
(Whereupon anyone else's main battle stuff, is completely valid following this thing, more power to that)

Sharp observers will notice phrases re-used from the two different versions of Earendillinwe in my track list, it is encouraged to also check those out (and the track notes of both).

Penta

Xuberance 2

My first vocals for anyone in 24 1/2 years.  That's right folks, since May of 1999 at Seattle University.
So I will sound a little out of practice and secondly I set myself a hard task with the instrumental track being made first and the vocals later.

my main website:
http://exedexes1.com

itch.io page:
http://exedexes1.itch.io

brackets are lyrics left on the cutting room floor.

One day the fool came walking by
And the king said 'let's have laughter'
[Then the fool said 'Well I'll make a jest'
'But let's just not kill me after']
(replaced with some da-da-da'ing)

He proceeded then to make his pitch
And the king besat there, all bewitched
But there came a point which had a flaw
And the fool knew he might lose it all

[So he turned to something he felt safe]
[And the king then seemed to forget the gaffe]
But the fool well knew his lucky break
And he quickly then made his escape

Being free to muse on the fickleness of rulers
As the day grew gaunt and grey
He thanked his stars
That unlike his peers
He lived to jest another day

SexDeka

The Fool's Jest

Buy on Bandcamp

The result of a Wikipedia crawl figuring out something around meme lore.  A Snowclone is a re-usable word phrase.

"In Soviet Russia, X Y's you." etc

my main website:
http://exedexes1.com

itch.io page:
http://exedexes1.itch.io

Lyrics:

I used to be a snowclone
But I took an arrow to the knee
I'm not a snowclone
But I play one on TV

If Eskimos have a thousand words for snow
Snowclones surely have one word for Eskimos

I Used To Be A Snowclone, But I Took An Arrow To The Knee

The third rather experimental vocal track.  A lot of compressing sections to go faster and match instrumentals.

my main website:
http://exedexes1.com

itch.io page:
http://exedexes1.itch.io

Lyrics:


And if it isn't too much trouble
I would like to know just what you were angling for
For the time... grows...short
To search for redress, tidy the mess

Riddle me this

As we sit here treading water
Why is it that you keep dodging the issue
Are the terms... too... steep
To broker a deal
What is it you feel

I didn't want, to be cruel
But there comes a time
Begging validation
Plays me for the fool

Why Are You Malfunctioning / Whimsy Number 2 (Lyrical)

The fourth lyrical track, this is Track 67 (LXVII) with the vocal track just fitted on top of it without really changing the instrumentals at all.

Don't interrupt a woman when she's trying to keep you out of trouble.

http://exedexes1.itch.io

Lyrics:

They're looking for a man
Who has a plan
Don't be put out by seeming
Shallow comparisons
Their abacus is always on patrol

They seek the best discard the rest
Remember they just try to build a nest
That instinct isn't really just a troll

They don't have time
To sit and wait
For you to find yourself
Until too late
The younger ones
Require being bold

SepteDeka

Be More Worried If She Says Yes (Extended Lyrical Version)

Be More Worried If She Says Yes - Lyrical Extended

Slightly autobiographical.  Although I will add for Danika's benefit I do understand that revenge is for children and the emotionally retarded, about ninety-seven percent of music is purging demons about the significant Other.

Lyrics:


All the tireless individuation i was doing
While the normalites were screwing
Means that trouble has been brewing for a while

When we get around to settling
The imbalance that's been nettling
There may be a confrontation off the top of the dial

It takes a fair amount of being a pussy
To build a world based on passing the buck
But when the choice is between
Some of the men that you've seen
Is the cagey guy the one you want to fuck


Though it's indicated to be tough
And we wonder what's enough
I should be gentle all the same

But when the gadflies of the swarm
Were causing genuine harm
It takes a fair amount of being a pussy
To shield them from the blame

It Takes A Fair Amount Of Being A Pussy

I felt like a very Netrek mood and at the same time something about quantum chromodynamics.

Dedicated to Tom Youderian, Scott Humphreys, Sheldon on Big Bang Theory and every International Netrek League (INL) Team I had the pleasure to cross swords with, in any era.

intro:

Feeling time to rank scum maybe

Iggy says hasta la vista baybee

main:

There once was a man of science

Who placed a great reliance

On Fleming's sagely tome


While the others in their hammocks

Dreamt of quantum chromodynamics

He paced about the sandy loam


Having grown extremely weary

Of perusing the Onium Theory

He shook his burly fists

exclaiming 'Mucus Pig Exists!'

And vanished into the Quantum Foam

Casting about for an easy way to fill out the end of SinEsra as an album, I reflected that Climbing The Martial Ladder's pure piano rough draft in its own right is fairly pleasant to listen to.

Life Of Rixlor (05 Climbing The Martial Ladder) (Acoustic Piano)

Life Of Rixlor - 05 - Climbing The Martial Ladder (Acoustic Piano)

Partly directed at the male-bashers on Twitter/X (RadFemHitler, et. al.) when they get a little too saucy.

After Foul-Mouthed Parrot was a nine-minute moon shot of sorts, I decided I needed, at length after a bunch of Itch.IO instrumentals, another vocal piece but I didn't really want to run a marathon again.

So I took some of the accumulated lyrical ideas and built something short.

A Fragmentary Modicum Of Sense

The long-overdue timing and gap removal fix for Release CCCV back on NovemDeka album.  The 2 second gap after "modus vivendi" was something of a scandal at the time.

This is not just the gap fix : there are other subtle speed and hesitation fixes in it plus a very slight speedup.

She's Got A Great Face For Philosophy (Gap Removal Fix Alpha)

I just wanted to do like another kind of short vocal like a Fragmentary Modicum Of Sense (Release CCCXLIX) because my longer vocals can be such an ordeal to make when they get to like 90+ lyric lines.

Lyrics:

Situational stamina is the spice of our lives
If you can soldier through the slings and arrows of people's diatribes
I'm such a slut for reciprocated vibes

The reviewing professor encouraged us to get off our asses
But being complex is like swimming through molasses
As the day drew to dusk I began to pine
For a girl to tryst that was physically a nine to ball
Notwithstanding my intentions
But if her finest conversational grist all day was gonna be Wonderwall
Isn't that just porn in three dimensions

Taking in the sights pleasantly
i was decked out in a modicum of style
As i glided down the street
Due to sporting this apparel
I was catcalled by a group of girls that were borderline feral
Being objectified and seen as a piece of meat
Was something of a treat
And though these samples of torridity
Had robbed me of a slice of dignity
I haven't felt this happy in a while

I, The Critiquing Hero, Have Read A Paper

The 34th vocal track.  Sort of a running joke set in kind of a 19th century frame about romantic rivalry and maybe the use of language and semantics.

Lyrics:
While we were searching for the legendary Cupid's Zambezi
My rival tried his best, though lazy
To conceal his damning catachrest
Halfway down the river Switchamee
I got up a wild hair
To expose this sniveling liar
He responded that he did not care
For being used as a floating signifier  

Having heard then and parried his scorn 
And though I really would not rather,
The forlorn burden of his blather was not so hard to carry then
His discourse, an embarrassment to any doctrinarian
I slid into tolerating this ultracrepidarian fool
Mildly resenting that he was philologically incompetent
But as long as what he did paid the rent
His lexicon though a travesty, made the trip a sum well spent 

His verbal sins, an egregious praxis
A malicious definist, someone engaging in willful anacrisis
A veritable saboteur-fool lexique of a worm
His method for attaining small wins 
Was a unique sigh in the annals of catachresis
Though his banal opinion of my technique 
Was that I was stubborn as a mule
I preferred the term
Smart-Person-Who-Understands-Language-Is-Instead-A-Tool

One day I got up the gumption to aver
And dared to bluster breezily
For a man who qualifies for her
You sure do scare easily  

He imperiously fired back
You petulant little elf
For your futile attempts to take this tack
You can seriously just go get wrecked
The dildo of consequence rarely arrives lubed
Or you just ironically defined yourself
Unless you tell me I'm incorrect
Then by the way
You're either free or double-trapped inside Metatron's Cube
Good luck hey hey hey HEYYY

A Serious Case Of λογολωβητής (Logolōbētēs)

Out in the wider world beyond itch this (release CCCLXXIX) is the first track of SebēšEšrā album that is not an Alpha Remix of an earlier piece from an earlier album.  

In the sense of having a lead-synth contrapuntally darting around (and doing so effectively, and on-the-beat for the most part with very little flaws) this track could be said to be a remote spiritual successor to Fat Bard Contortions (Track CII) way back in 2023.

Reflections (Alpha Remaster)

The jam called for music involving the final fall of a hero like they are dying after losing a fight.  My treatment has kind of the minute or two before the fight begins and then a jump scare and then i went with a short battle sequence and an electric guitar solo reminiscent of when Flash Gordon in the 1980 film was being executed with the poison gas (unsuccessfully as it turned out) to close us out.

The Hero's Fall submission for Weekly Note Composing Jam 5 hosted by emscottish for Itch.IO

Submission for Weekly Note Composing Jam #6 hosted by emscottish for Itch.IO February 2025

combining works of (Faridoddin Abu Hamed Mohammad Attar Nishapuri) Sufi poet aka Attar ('apothecary') of Nishapur c.1145-1121 AD
and Scottish poet and lyricist Robert Burns 1759-1796 AD

lyrics:

The sea will be the sea,
No matter the drop's philosophy.
(Attar of Nishapur)

We are busy with the luxury of things
Their number and multiple faces bring
To us confusion we call knowledge Say:
God created the world, pinned night to day
Made mountains to weigh it down 
seas To wash its face 
living creatures with pleas
The ancestors of prayers seeking a place
In this mystery that floats in endless space.
(Attar of Nishapur)


Talk not of love, it gives me pain,
For love has been my foe;
He bound me in an iron chain,
And plunged me deep in woe.  
(Robert Burns)

From each, Love demands a mystic silence.
What do all seek so earnestly? 
Place not so firm a value on self-reliance,
Love’s tide erodes what we grasp so thirstily.
Love is the subject of their inmost thoughts,
In Love no longer 'Thou' and 'I' exist,
No musing upon what effort brought, (me)
For self has passed away in the Beloved.
A form which vanishes into mist.
Now will I draw aside the veil from Love,
And in the temple of mine inmost soul
Gaze on the void’s eternal bowl.
Behold the Friend, Incomparable Love.
He who would know the secret of both worlds
And has the opaque pall unfurled, (me)
Will find that the secret of them both is Love.
(Attar of Nishapur)

Cold, alter'd friendship's cruel part,
Open wounds stung by brine, Love. (me)
To poison Fortune's ruthless dart
Let me not break thy faithful heart,
And say that fate is mine, Love. 
(Robert Burns)

Embers Of A Broken Dawn

Sort of an odd current events vocal around some conversations on Twitter/X

knowyourmeme says of the Breakfast Question or Breakfast Test:

"The Breakfast Question or How Would You Have Felt If You Hadn't Eaten Breakfast? is a bait question and a counterfactual conditional that references a 4chan story of a grad student who allegedly performed IQ research on convicts at San Quentin State Prison. During the research, individuals with low IQ struggled to simulate the hypothetical situation in their minds, instead answering that they did have breakfast. Online, the question has been used in internet arguments as a conspicuous way to indicate that one's opponent is unintelligent, while the posts have often been referenced in memes."

lyrics:

If you overuse an em-dash
Does it make you an elocutionary punctuationist

The goodly man didn't set out to besmirch 
The devices of deep research
But while he was searching for a solution
He walked a subtly distorted hall of mirrors
Wading through epistemic pollution

They warned him in the olden times
Before you get to rolling in the hay
The more helpless the animal she identifies with is, 
The more evil she is by the way

Long after the mome raths outgribe
The fellow emerged from his gooncave
And happened upon the fate's scribe
He wavered like a legless tree
Propped up by her inosculation
Long after the stars did prevaricate
A man from his lair did elevate  

To the dehibernating engineer with the big brain
The fortune teller said while popping the kettle
I don't mean to cause you undue distress
Or general feelings of dread
Unfortunately when the dust settles
You will be arcane
But you will be powerless  

There hasn't lately been effusive gore
Because we're still in the phony war  

She was one of those chicks
Who said I lied I don't have Netflix
She said she was at the end of her rope
Battling appointments from a communist pope
And when she really had me at her mercy
She opened the car door and said
Get in loser we're going to restart the investiture controversy  

Squinting her eyes at the horizon as if trying to see
She capered like a bird before an earthquake
Waiting for the first sounds of the iron catastrophe  

As she drove her paramour in the back seat
Was slumming and chewing the cud and furrowing his brow
He went on to relate
There's an awful lot of endogenous FUD right now
I don't know much about the occult astronomy
But the distribution is shifting
It's the kurtosis economy
Not to get excessively knobbly
I just mean potential for an escalation in instability
In a system that seems like it's already wobbly  

Hey babe i don't mean to be a grimsy
But how much cyproheptadine do I need to take
To completely eliminate my boyish whimsy  

And like hobbits, in the shadow's gloom
Yearning for another bite to consume
We seek the steadiness that's now entombed
In an epoch where darkness might assume  

To gauge the dawn with morning's bite
Throwing shade on our sanctuaries
Beneath the reign of he who was once king
A toss of fate, a sign to bring
A whisper of a bygone era's ring
Where woke destiny's whims do cling

Yet the economy, with its cryptic wile
Plays its game, a trickster's style
Not bound by ancient laws, but by vibe's guile
In a dance of mystery, it does beguile 

We stand, we watch, in this modern murk
For the roll of dice, the next big lurk
And query, with wisdom old and bold
If a second breakfast might the truth unroll
A sudden clarity, a meal's theophany
A veritable crepuscular epiphany

What About Second-Breakfast Test?

The Broken Telephone jam series alternates music prompts to make art, and the winning art is used to make a prompt for the music in the next jam following.  Therefore this winning art piece from BT-1 is a cute scene with a dragon-like animal and its human friend in a placid environment.  I decided to go with sort of a bouncy positive sounding track, in consequence, rather parallel to let's say the city-view music in Master of Magic's original 1995 OST for Simtex/Microprose.

Gentle Dragon submission for Broken Telephone 2 Jam Hosted By cjee246 for Itch.IO February 2025

The text prompt for the Itch music jam was "1000 Pigeon Army"
this led to thinking of Liszt's "St. Francis of Assisi Preaching to the Birds" (composed 1862-1865) for piano. inspired by the saint’s legendary sermon to a flock of birds, which often included doves or pigeons in art and lore.  The piece’s delicate, fluttering passages suggest a mass of pigeons taking flight.

The slower passages are inspired *very* loosely by "Le Chant des Oyseaux" ("The Song of the Birds") by Clément Janequin, a French composer from the early 16th century. Published around 1528-1530, it is a polyphonic choral piece.

The jam called for "controlled chaos" as its text prompting, so one could think of this as a sequel to Waiting For The Righting of the Gomboc (Release CCCLXIII) with some differences.

Palimpsest of Fallen Hegemony (Zenith Of Opulence submission for Impressions Composing Jam Original Soundtrack 2 hosted by KaleOverlord for Itch.IO)

Palimpsest of Fallen Hegemony 03 - Zenith Of Opulence

Playtalons the Uncommon Lover is in honor of Tarn Adams's original Guitar and Flamenco piece which served
as the background for the early versions of Dwarf Fortress prior to it going onto Steam.

The name refers to an artifact forged in one of my sessions about nine years ago, an adamantite restraint
of the topmost quality level possible in DF. (Usually restraints are used to hold animals to one spot in pastures...)
Countess Vucar Inesthatast had it, for obvious reasons so it wouldn't get stolen or destroyed, built as furniture
in her bedroom.

Similar to Rumbling Cave (release CCLXXVI) I have some ambient sounds.  I also did some voice work personally emulating
some death-screams of dwarves approximating the one in the opening crawl of the game in earlier versions where the dwarf
opens a passage infront of him and gets yanked into it.  These were sped up or slowed down to arbitrary lengths between
90% and 150% which of course in Mixcraft means that you also get some pitch variance simultaneously out of that tweaking.

Everything except the echo effect internal to MixCraft's software synthesizer, and my voice which was paired with the echo
effect, was manually performed on the Roland FA-08 first and then ported to the DAW on the laptop for final touches.

A funny track about some discussions on Twitter/X lately, it's frankly on the weirder side like Word Salad and Yes-No Column, Come To Life!

But after hearing it multiple times (like most of my things) it improves.

Lyrics:

There is difficulty to a significant degree
When battling people engaged in hoaxing
And we can clearly see
Because Hesiod said in seven hundred BC
Do not let a woman who decorates her buttocks deceive you
By wily coaxing
Because she is after your granary

Bewailing her lack of taro root
A redhead libertarian was destitute and snarked
That she didn't have a favorite prostitute
A contrarian most resolute
But a boon to have at your back during a dispute
Now that we were in cahoots, to entertain her sense of humor
I related to her the past events

If you don't quite have the stomach for horror
Try still to conceive of if you can
The complaints of a commoditized man
That vultures caused American culture
To became a jump ball for Sodom and Gomorrah

When i was younger and very very loud
I was a disgraced propagandist doing his username proud

Her lines were remarkably sultry
I was lost in thought staring at the shininess of her boot
Musing that the first step of any meaningful pursuit
Is to severely underestimate its difficulty

The one-night stand sarcastically complimented me on my range
I said you were the one to talk
But then she recommended as a dietary change
Brazilian Quinoa and Equatorial Donkey Chalk

She was quite amazing wearing fishnets
But when her lasciviousness needed satiating
Nothing quite got her wet like contemplating
Malicious compliance to get the idiots and shills upset

As i got older the fatter became my manila folder
I wondered if she'd gone too far
When she was grinding to WAP in a bar
Then berating me for touching her on the shoulder

The root of their lawfully sanctioned insurgency
Was a deeply felt need of urgency
Their transgressions begat the need to talk sense
But either they were in denial or awfully dense
Like Private Pyle they were too fat to climb over Chesterton's fence

The libertarian drew back agape as I was seized by
Poetic demons, my tongue unbound by whimsy’s cry  

Now peep their quisquilian rout, all clowned in disarray
A pox of poltroons, too shook to gainsay
Brains so obtund, they’d quaff their own toxic drip,
I smack their feckless rebellion with truculence no slip
And big up the gibbet that cancels their weak-ass affray

She smirked, Thy florid rant doth vex me sore,
A bard’s bombast best left to yore’s grim lore

Thus spake Hesiod, neath Boeotia’s dour sky 
Shun maids who cozen with a venal eye
For when iron reigns and kine grow gaunt with blight
Avaunt their guile, lest chaos claim the night

Jump-Ball For Sodom And Gomorrah

Kaleidoscopic Revelry Riff submission for Broken Telephone 4 Jam hosted by cjee246 for Itch.IO

Okay this one goes way back because the original instrumental track is only the -sixth- in the line up (VI) released in March 2023.
I assert that fact that the original is so tiny, it doesn't really violate the originality restrictions of the game jam.  Which might be a stretch but here goes.

There are easter eggs in it from Dissatisfaction 4 (XLIX) for those wondering at some odd shifts like Myxolidian scales up and down.

Lyrics: 

Imagine a boot so big somehow
That we have to start licking it now
In case it might exist some day
A fear that just won't go away  

I started life on a diet
Of solitude and quiet
But rosiness did not prepare
For the jungle out there

And once I had thoroughly got their gist
I saw through the plot of my nemesis
To churn out carceral urbanists

Your agency is proportional to the number of people
You can handle being mad at you at the same time
But a contrarian mindset sometimes
Cannot exactly turn on a dime  

My supposed social betters
Took on the workforce fetters
Because they gamed Goodhart's law to the letter
While I’m left to dream of something better  

I was wanting to have my cake and eat it
But the cost made me feel so conceited  
I’m trapped, still living under their thumb
While my heart keeps beating to my own drum  

The consequences gradually got meaner
I suspected the grass is greener
seeing the glass ceiling's pretence
drove the lure of the other side of the fence

One thing that I have found
Comfort is the devil's playground
But colocated with silent grief
Escapism gave me some relief

But Rose-colored lenses
Still don't conceal systemic defenses  

In time regret ebbs and flows
A cycle of longing that grows
Energy flows where one’s attention goes  

It’s not necessarily a race
Rose-colored glasses can’t erase
The truth that I have learned to face
Dissatisfaction expands to the available space
  
I muse on vales, zephyr pure
Far from mire, no rancor’s lure
Ascendance blooms, I endure

Dissatisfaction Expands To The Available Space (Extended Lyrical Version)

2nd extended lyrical version of Be More Worried If She Says Yes, submission for Music Revision Challenge game jam hosted by 8 Bits To Infinity for Itch.IO in April 2025

@sanctifiedsound correctly says this isn't proper Pop but it's the closest to Pop my Folktronica Jazztronica pieces have approached to.  It has a bouncy energy.

Lyrics: 

Phantasm....glimmers fade
Her eyes...a masquerade

Her gaze sped… through maelstrom’s lure,
Fell… where dreams immure.

They're looking for a man
Who has a plan
Don't be put out by seeming
Shallow comparisons
Their abacus is always on patrol

If you don't impress, she's gonna stay
Leaving you with just dismay
Not your lucky day

Don't be a dud
When she gives her nod
The moment she agrees
Is when you seize,
Be the man she wants to hold
Who doesn't need to be told

They seek the best discard the rest
Remember they just try to build a nest
That instinct isn't really just a troll

Her patience isn't like a pool,
Dont be a fool

When she says yes, it's time to act
Show her that you're more than fact
Step up your game,

They don't have time
To sit and wait
For you to find yourself
Until too late
The younger ones
Require being bold

Evanescent… cinders drift,
Her stare… a rhapsody’s rift.

Hold… what dusk bestows,
Love… ain’t fierce, it grows.

Be More Worried If She Says Yes (2nd Extended Lyrical Version)

Sempiternal Skid Canticle - submission for Weekly Note Composing Jam 16 hosted by emscottish

Long-awaited alpha remaster of the third of the odd little ways series.  Cleaned up a bunch of timing, which is kind of the definition of what an alpha remaster is - whatever may be done by simple splicing or merging, was done to make it less hesitant

Odd Little Ways, Parte The Third (Alpha Remaster)

long-awaited alpha remaster of Just Coolin' Down the counterpart to Just Warmin' Up.  Toward the end on the original i intended to keep a consistent number-of-tones offshift on the last 2 sections and forgot to do so, this is now rectified.

Just Coolin' Down (Alpha Remaster)

long-awaited alpha remaster for just your little hypnagogia, several of the releases right around 240-244 have now all gotten alpha remasters because they were good pieces to start-with and worthy of cleaning up the timing

Just Your Little Hypnagogia (Alpha Remaster)

Pursuit With One Hand Tied (Alpha Remaster)

Awkward Turning-Point had a lot of subtle problems, so it was satisfying to in my opinion get it right at last with a whole bunch of splicing and merges.  Came out pretty nice.

Awkward Turning-Point (Alpha Remaster)

I didn't plan when I started this logo-style on In The Zone (#308) to -finish- necessarily the Akkadian-numeral albums -with- something Babylonian as the proximal subject matter, but because I am a fan to start with of God Emperor Of Dune, I had this epiphany thanks to Leto II mentioning this ruler in his internal safaris, in the Stole Journals fragments used for the chapter headings.
