American Dust

When I was young the road ahead was so long
The sea was so far and hot was the sand
We played down the junkyard shooting bottles and cans
I walk home slowly with the red red sun

To the place on the corner by the all-night
Look through the window at the funeral pyre
She won’t be running with me no more
We’re Dust…American…Dust

Dust…American…Dust
So the Wind Won’t Blow It All Away
Dust…American…Dust

I guess that tomorrow I’ll be down at the pond
Where the sun on the water make my hair white blond
If the watchman reaches for another beer
I’ll get a penny at the all-night store

The road is long but sun down calls
In the apple orchard shadows fall
I miss the can but Shoot The Man
We’re Dust…American…Dust

Dust…American…Dust
So the Wind Won’t Blow It All Away
Dust…American…Dust
No the Wind Won’t Blow It All Away
Dust…American…Dust

We’re Dust…American…Dust

Red Guitars x Jake Angel - Good Technology (Cowboy Mix). This is an additional mix of Red Guitars Good Technology 2023, a collaboration with country hip-hop pioneer Jake Angel, self released on Bandcamp on Sept 1st 2023.

Good Technology (Cowboy Mix) mixed by Red Guitar Lou in collaboration with Jake Angel Beats @jakeangelbeats young beatmaker from Leeds, currently living in Nashville.

"When the 40th anniversary of Good Technology was coming into view we had the original master tape baked and digitised, so we had the original stems to work with. John took the lead on the official extended remix and I worked on the additional Cowboy Mix. We're all fans of the wild west and our drummer Matt's nephew is Jake Angel, who lives in Nashville and produces country hip hop beats. I picked one of his beats to work with, mixed the original stems and added a new live fretless bass to the track. I changed the scan of the vocals and separated each line so that it became a kind of question and answer, adding a slight distortion to the answer and panning it slightly to one side." Lou Duffy-Howard

We've got photographs of men on the moon
We've got water that is good for us
We've got coffee that's instantaneous
We've got buildings that are very tall
We've got cigarettes that are low in tar
We've got policemen who can tell us who we are
We can reproduce a work of art
We've got missiles can tear the world apart
Good, good, good, good, good, good technology

We've got trains that run underground
Aeroplanes that fly very fast
We've got music that is popular
We've got machines that sound like orchestras
We've got ability to transplant a heart
We've got freezers full of body parts
We've got computers that can find us friends
We know roughly when the world will end
Good, good, good, good, good, good technology
We've got animals with transistors in
We've got pills that can make you slim
We've got factories turning frozen chickens out
We've got ovens that cook in seconds flat
We've got plastics that are indestructible
We've got deodorants that make us smell of flowers
We've got detergents to clean up the sea
We've got sounds that can tear us inside out
Sometimes I wonder what it is all about
There's lots of leisure time to sit and work it out
There's a TV show I've got to see
Good, good, good, good, good, good technology
Good technology
