Indie Rock I Found

This is a song I wrote many years ago. It spoke about a relationship I would have with a younger woman.  I  always assumed it was for my x wife whom I was 9 years her senior. It called ‘I Think You’re Beautiful’. True love is known by the fruit it produces

I Think You’re Beautiful by Dave Hanrahan 🌎 Music

Leave me, Please me
I’ve been running around
I’ve been running around
It’s true
I’ve been running round
I’ve been running round you

I’m a lovely animal
And I’m here
Just for you

Show Must Go On

ANOTHER DAY(feat. Line Of Sight)

У моря есть волны
У солнца есть свет
Есть я у тебя у меня тебя нет
Ты смотришь в окно чтоб увидеть опять
Те странные мысли, не потерять

Пройдёт серой тучей и ляжет в песок
А мне бы приблизиться на волосок
К тому, что мерцает и может спасти
Того, что не вижу но есть впереди

Не зная что будет
Не видя, что есть
Мы сделаем шаг, но останемся здесь
Под небом курчавым расправим слова
И заиграют стихов кружева

Тот шаг, что надеждою стоит согреть
И для чего так хотелось бы петь
Шагнуть бы его, или что то понять
Те странные мысли мне не унять

Пр.
Помню свет в окне
Зелёной комнаты
Вижу, мальчик на ковре
Играет в кубики

The sea has waves
The sun has light
You have me, I don't have you
You look out the window to see again
Those strange thoughts, not to lose

Will pass as a gray cloud and lie in the sand
And I would like to come a hair closer
To that which shimmers and can save
That which I do not see but is ahead

Not knowing what will be
Not seeing what is
We will take a step, but will remain here
Under the curly sky we will straighten the words
And the lace of poetry will play

That step that is worth warming with hope
And why would I so like to sing
I would like to step it, or understand something
Those strange thoughts I cannot calm

Сhorus
I remember the light in the window
of the green room
I see a boy on the carpet
Playing with cubes

Carefully done timing remaster to one of my very best instrumentals in the 3 1/2 years to date.  There was an alternate shorter version of this which ended up being a vocal track.

War Criminal - Single by Turbo-Laser https://music.apple.com/gb/album/war-criminal-single/1848306310

War Criminal

An album composed around a story, done originally as a mayor project for SAE Amsterdam. After a while, album was lost in time, until today. Undone features storytelling elements as well as a multitude of ambient and subliminal soundcues. Enjoy!

6-Apparitions

5-Drunk

Compression fix to make the vocals less indistinct.  I was teasing out the vocals to be sharper.  I had a discarded intermediate where the vocals were even sharper but the instrumental was too soft probably.

Lyrics:

When we look at the present strictures
We are a sad generation with happy pictures

After a frittering of eros
On the barren grounds of lack
I decided soundly
To take another tack

In response to his cold stare
I said it gets pretty funny
45 billion here, 45 billion there
And suddenly you're talking about real money

He related as I dolloped the pancake syrup
The morning after he'd flagellated his furry integument
That a hacker get together in Europe
You see is an un-assessed data environment

His concluding vision was prophetic
Media production orbiting
A star of memetic contagion
A cynical relation
To art and aesthetics
As something to bully around
Until we're back to reality
And we smack into the ground

If you find the present day alarming
When you wonder where the authentic
Antique rizz has gone
Consider that aura-farming
Is another great example of zoomer
Internalization of the panopticon

An added garnish like parsley
Imagining a third party judging you harshly
When you shake off the romantic haze
your actions are but a spectacle
For an imagined collective gaze
Where you make the needed wiggles

You don't need to be actually cool you see
You can just curate the required signals
When you're the right kind of fool
You simulate aura
Until simulation becomes reality
Like some opportunity cost sink

But chat what do you think

As regards immigration
For Schrodinger's assimilation
A fair amount of guilt is required
To stoke enough emotion
I tried to check
If the cat in the box was dead
But it busted ass for the ocean
As soon as the subsidies expired

I failed to convince him so i noped
He was the cock of the walk
And could talk the talk
And then one day
The man who invented the scissors statement
Broke his snippers on a rock
And i confessed to some abatement
Of my hopes

And then i started to wince
Because it was the first time in his life
That this dude missed an opportunity to mince

I thought i was about to die
When he said in all seriousness
The Wizard of Oz is a reverse harem isekai.

I tried to cheer him up anyway
And told him
Even if though for the moment
You feel like you're on the skids
Now that you have haters
It means that you're one of the cool kids

And then i had a realization which gave me pause
To earn the right to be a retard
You must first become genius enough
To reverse the damage you cause

Panopticon Parsley (Mixcraft Compression Alpha)

Skriðdreki (Crawling Dragon) is the second track from 8 by Laxá & Heima Kvartett — an Icelandic post-rock ensemble known for fusing cinematic strings, dub reggae basslines, and atmospheric guitars.

Dedicated to bassist Bjarne Guðjohnsen, Skriðdreki opens with a driving bass line crawling beneath layers of fuzzed guitar and rhythmic drums. As the density lifts, Mike Taylor’s church organ and the Heima Kvartett’s strings rise through the haze, giving the piece a sense of both menace and release. The pacing shifts between weight and clarity — almost symphonic — capturing the feel of a classical structure within a modern post-rock frame.

Transactions is a hypnotic dive into the moral economy of modern life where the favors, misbehaviors, and unspoken debts circle through our lives like currency. Anchored by a pulsing drum-and-bass groove and swirling synth layers, the song drifts between confession and reflection, questioning whether good deeds can ever truly balance the scales.

Transactions

originals

Thinkin yesterday-solo project new remix

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.
