'Reunion' is an extreme and dense piece of sonic exploration, using only own built analog machines and synthesis.

Original song: Colin benders, Live Session.

When you understand that you'll need to contend with the forces of nature, whether it's for a goal, an ideal, or an illness to overcome, always remember that you must maintain the rhythm of your breath.

During moments when everything seems arduous, it will serve as your sole compass, your guiding light, and your source of salvation.

Thanks for listening!

LØUI3 BVG

Equation 001

Star Yacht, symphonic rock*

Dive into the gritty sonic landscape of Ladat's release 'Pill Lady Chaser'24' set to unleash its punk rock prowess. A bold reimagination of the 2021 single 'Pill Lady Chaser' this revival captures the unapologetic essence of rebellion and raw energy.

Led by the dynamic trio of Blaž Pavšič (BB Bandit) on rhythm guitar, drums, and backing vocals, Uroš Mohorič (UX band) on solo guitars, and Gregor Alič (Hanson) on bass guitar, 'Pill Lady Chaser'24' is a testament to their collective musical prowess.

Produced by Blaž Pavšič and impeccably mixed and mastered at A7 Recording Studio, Ladat's latest single is a sonic journey that refuses to conform. The relentless pulse of the rhythm section intertwines with searing guitar solos, creating a sonic whirlwind that propels the listener into the heart of punk rock rebellion.

The lyrics, penned by Ladat, paint a vivid picture of a character caught in the chaotic spiral of addiction, offering a commentary on the darker side of human nature. The stark honesty in the words is matched by the intensity of the music, making 'Pill Lady Chaser'24' a captivating and thought-provoking musical experience.

MaKo's striking artwork perfectly encapsulates the dark spirit of 'Pill Lady Chaser'24,' inviting listeners to visually engage with the intensity of Ladat's musical vision.

Join the rebellion, embrace the chaos, and experience the unfiltered energy of Ladat's 'Pill Lady Chaser'24' – where punk rock meets unbridled expression.

Rhythm guitar, drums, and backing vocals: Blaž Pavšič aka BB Bandit
Solo guitars: Uroš Mohorič aka UX band
Bass guitar: Gregor Alič aka Hanson

Producer: Blaž Pavšič

Pill Lady Chaser'24

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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 liked the technical challenge of this song.  A lot of moving vocal segments around and the first time that I sang harmonies against myself.

Looking at it a day later: it's like theres an extra measure in the verses where Bill shortened once he got to the 2nd-and-later, and I didn't because I cut and pasted, so it explains why I have to idle extra time each verse to deal with that.

But it does inadvertently fill the requirement that "cover songs should have their own weird signature that doesn't match the original too closely"

I very consciously did -not- read the spoilers for who Laura was really about before cutting the cover.  One fun way to interpret who Laura is, if you didn't know it's Joel's mother, is not an ex-wife or an ex-gf, like some are saying, but let's say a niece or a biological daughter that he never sees until Laura is an adult, but what hurts is they're cut from the same cloth, they're -so- similar but Laura's karma is different and gets her in trouble and he always has to financially bail her out etc.  Be a fixer.
She's genius-level but does substances way harder than him and routinely almost gets killed.  Loose cannon.  The 'umbilical cord' in this sense is then the aid he has to give, she -never- shows signs of growing up or out of this phase.

A lot of work went into this one and it was the second time that I used harmony against myself singing.  And the first time I really put different files from the synth together in the mixer in the -center- of a song.  I'd done intros and outros off a side-file before but this time I got really invasive.

This was a little easier to put together than the previous three cover songs.  I should maybe have transposed it to lower key for my bass range (in fact almost certainly should have), but it was intriguing to see if I could actually hit all the notes singing.

05-08-2024: fixed up the front phrases which I think really hurt its Re-Ex rating.  re-uploaded the file.

IF THE KIDS WANNA DANCE
Original song by Marc Freak
2023 Remix by Kris Bolin
2024 Remix by Overdrive

Check out the IG promo videos:

https://www.instagram.com/p/C89rzJwsoRu/

The initial idea was just to create a video of Kris Bolin's remix of the fantastic "If The Kids Wanna Dance (Let Them Dance)" by Marc Freak. These two guys are geniuses and tbh I still think Kris' remix is the definitive version of the song -- which, of course, didn't stop me from making another remix just to celebrate one of the tracks that makes my top 10 playlist (I'm still capable of listening to it ten times in a row).

I started creating the video in Premiere and, out of pure curiosity, increased the bpm and added techno beats. It all went very well with the footage of young Ukrainians dancing at a rave party. After that, I rushed to ask Marc if I could do another ITKWD remix (lol).

The 1st Instagram promo video was created with scenes from the fantastic documentary "Exploring Ukraine's Underground Rave Revolution", produced by Kate Villevoye for i-D's YouTube channel:
https://youtu.be/P4G1r2u8m9g

A prolific musician, author, photographer and (as he defines himself) oddity, Marc's influences range from the lo-fi pop of Guided by Voices to the gothic melodrama of Nick Cave, via the glam of Bowie and the rawness of Iggy Pop. Former frontman of Freak Circus and Dead Joe, an experiment in DIY and lo-fi. A visit to Marc Freak's Soundcloud page is an absolute must:

Kristopher "Kris" Bolin is a virtuoso at creating polyphonic vocals, so if you want a collab with him, be prepared to receive a pile of audios that form a choir as complex as a baroque cantata (lol). Kris is the lead singer and guitarist of the amazing band The Bawl Slant, one of the most active and respected bands in the Soundcloud community. Their sound ranges from garage rock to grunge and punk rock, always with impeccable quality. As one of the band's fans, I highly recommend checking out their excellent material:

Hope you enjoy this new version of ITKWD.

LYRICS

If the kids wanna dance
Hot shoes - tight pants
High spirits - cheap bear
My eardrums - Can't hear or won't hear
I'm not here

[Chorus]
If the kids wanna dance let them dance, let them dance
If the kids wanna dance let them dance

I'm tired - so what?
Party - I forgot
Can't take the pace
But I'm trying to catch the bass, deep bass
In yer face

[Chorus]

One step, one fall
I'm proud I've gall
Raise your finger in the air
Let the world know you care
I don't care, I don't care

[Chorus]

If The Kids Wanna Dance

This is a song that I wrote about my drive to and from work through 30 miles of traffic each way, five days per week. 

DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT
(Ron Snyder)

I’M TRYING TO SHARE THE ROAD
AND AM ALWAYS BOXED IN
THE ROAD IS CLEAR AHEAD OF ME
EXCEPT I AM HELD WITHIN

DRIVERS IN THEIR OWN LITTLE WORLD
THAT DON’T HAVE A CLUE
ONCE A POKE ALWAYS A POKE
SOMETHING I KNOW TO BE TRUE

DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT (3X)
BEFORE I RUN YOU DOWN
DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT (3X)
GOTTA GET TO THE NEXT TOWN

I’M TRYING TO GET THERE
AND THEY’RE ALL AROUND ME
NOTHING’S GETTING BY THEM
AND I WANT TO BREAK FREE

I LOOK FOR AN OPENING
AND THERE IS NOTHING THERE
WHY ARE YOU IN THE LEFT LANE
I NEED TO GO ON A TEAR

DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT (3X)
BEFORE I RUN YOU DOWN
DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT (3X)
GOTTA GET TO THE NEXT TOWN


-----------  GUITAR JAM ------------------------


DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT (3X)
BEFORE I RUN YOU DOWN
DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT (3X)
GOTTA GET TO THE NEXT TOWN

THE DRIVING’S BEEN TOUGH
LIKE IN A VIDEO GAME
WHEN YOUR TIME IS ON THE LINE
YOU ONLY HAVE YOURSELF TO BLAME

DRIVING LIKE YOU’RE ON A MISSION
IS YOUR ONLY HOPE
EXCEPT FOR ALL THE DAYDREAMERS
THAT CAUSE A REAL CHOKE

DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT (3X)
BEFORE I RUN YOU DOWN
DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT (3X)
GOTTA GET TO THE NEXT TOWN

DRIVE LIKE YOU MEAN IT (3X)
GOTTA GET TO THE NEXT TOWN
CHICAGO TRAFFIC (3X)
IT REALLY GETS YOU DOWN

At Last (instrumental)

Session 1-50

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.
