A message from JAH

Lamentation

I'm in the middle. I'm not yet 9 years old, but I already knew I was going to teach music even though I had only started playing at age 7. I would bring my friends inside and give them lessons on how to play Chopsticks and later, Heart and Soul. The family in the photo doesn't exist anymore, and hasn't for a long time.  Some of my family is still living, but there is absolutely no communication. There is only animosity and disrespect directed at me. At least that is how I feel. I'm alone.  There is no love or caring. Sad, isn't it? I gave up.

Growing up between 1954 and 1972, when I left home to go to school, I had no intention of moving back to my hometown.

I had a wonderful childhood. Children today don't experience the joy of being a child whose sole objective was being able to play outside with a dozen other neighborhood children. 

My parents were still kids when they got married right out of High School and had three babies in four years. My sisters did the same thing, never finding out who they were and what their talents were. Could I sell cars for 35 years? Never. We were just so different. There were many reasons that tore our family apart. My father turned to alcohol after his kids were grown,  in his 40's and was dead at 54. My mother couldn't maintain the family business herself and lost everything she had worked for and had nothing to show for it. I haven't talked to my sisters in years. They are angry at me for reasons I don't understand, and I gave up trying to figure it out. They don't even talk to each other. I don't know what it's like to have a sister. Are they lonely, too? Is it pride that stands in the way? Is it too hard to admit tha

Creating music is my way of understanding what I feel. It is my diary. From the time I was a young child I tried to play the music I could hear inside, but I couldn't. I didn't know how, and there was no one who could teach me that because they didn't know how to play their own music. It took a long time to understand, and I'm not yet quite there, learning how to play the piano from the inside out. It has changed the way I teach. Anyone can learn to read music, but only a few can actually hear their own music. I've written a lot of music for people as gifts and music for my own family, especially the newest babies. Number 5 great grandbaby is due in a few months. Hopefully, my music will be something they will keep and use it to always connect me to them.

I can't change what my sisters think of me. I believe it is regretful, but it is their choice, not mine. If my parents could have looked ahead and saw how we ended, how sad they would have been. When I uploaded this music to SC last night, I sat and cried, overwhelmed with hopelessnes of it. It is one thing to lose your family to death; quite another to lose them when while they still live.

Broken Family

I have always wanted to make a rap metal track with Heartscore so I was super excited when he reached out with this banging hip-hop metal fusion production. The lyrics are inspired behind the Hawaiian legend of Nanaue the Shark Man. I have some Hawaiian blood in me, so I figured I would rock it, lol! I am super blessed to still be working on music with my friend Heartscore. 

Massive thanks to Bitzone for coming through in the clutch with the dope vocal mix and final master. And huge thanks to Wou-Wou for the incredible song art making us look real stylish and professional!

Lyrics
Holy crap what is that growing on his back 
13 racks of teeth and I’m talking plaque 
Gaping wide open ready to snack 
Fish mouth on the prowl hidden under a wrap 
Musta known we were talkin’ smack 
We were all staring at him when he turned and glared back 
With those black mirror eyes 
Caught by surprise after many moons of lies
Horrors and cries rise to despise
It’s the demise of the shark man 

It’s the shark man

Say what he was cut from the cloth of a god
I swear there must have been lust in the brine and guts 
All up in that shapeshifters mind 
Yup, we all thought it was odd how he kept swimming back
As blood washed ashore he walked away from the gore
On that sea wrack 
Still thirsty for more flesh, meat, and albacore
Once he walked through that door he couldn’t forbore
The horror arise
It’s the demise of the shark man  

It’s the shark man

God damn, like spam, he devoured a man
Tore apart flesh like peeling back the lid of can
Never satiated since his first feast of ham, rack of lamb, and that stan favorite prickly pin clam
Ever since then his appetite grew he knew 
He couldn’t hold back desire when in that salty stew
True to his shapeshifting form 
He was born to find ecstasy when warm flesh eating transformed    
So we swarmed up on him on that afternoon
Harpoons flew through the skies 
Clubs fell till he died 
His body was tied 
Divided in pieces ’n 
Hung till it dried
Fired and fried 
It’s the demise of the shark man 

It’s the shark man

I Just wanted a get taste 
Na, I just wanted to be in the chase
Na, I just got the feel of the race
No stoppin’ until I get shit face
No stoppin’ until I’m laying in my waste
No stoppin’ until everyone’s disgraced  

It’s the shark man

First we gave you life, despite divine insight 
Again invite past blight, our name, the Gods will smite

It’s the shark man

And for that you still kill, we’re cursed until 
We split your gills and your blood is spilled

It’s the shark man

I’ve seen the depths 
I’ve swam the deep and sunk forever 
Each time I swim back to shallow shores I’m gonna drown
And when I see the light 
I seek shadows and sense the hunger
After seizing my fill I sink back up 
High in the depths 

From the frenzy comes
The shark man
Yea
When you smell blood
Here comes the shark man

How many times 
Been made to hide my teeth for your love 
How much can man be measured by his will to stand on ground
I’ve made my enemy my desire for the flesh 
Turned my back on my shiver I sink back up
High in the depths

From the frenzy of the kill
It’s the shark man
Yea
When you smell blood
It’s the shark man

Mill Lane is our temporary rehearsal space this year - located in the nth suburbs of Hobart its a huge warehouse that is in the process of being emptied of museum equipment. Each week the space gets bigger and more cathedral like as the crates go out the roller door. Heres a little taste from the other night.. you will need to excuse me on 2 fronts - My zoom seems to be reaching the end of its life so the recordings is pretty scratchy and 2 I reckon i am a bit out of tune... anyway the energy is good and the ears locked in to what the other musician is doing which I guess is the main thing. Happy Riffing

Tangled up

August 1485: Richard Plantagenet (Richard III) is the last king of England to be killed in battle (he's the - "a horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse" guy in the Shakespeare play). Over 500 years later his body was re-interred in Leicester Cathedral having been discovered under a parking lot nearby. Always regarded as an evil murderous tyrant, recent studies reveal his 'hunch-back villain' image may have been exaggerated - mainly due to Shakespeare's portrayal. His spinal curvature, however was clearly verified when his skeleton was discovered...it's well worth visiting the city of Leicester to see for yourself!

[Photo by me - shows Rick 3's reconstruction at a visitor centre just opposite Leicester Cathedral]

Below is an insightful article on an organization looking to bring about meaningful change as it pertains to our legal system here in the U.S. and how it perceives certain natural psychedelic drugs:

"Psychedelics are represented in the media, on the stock market, and in academic journals, but there’s a tie-dye elephant in the room: they’re still illegal. An organization that believes every human should have the right to use psychedelics wants to change that."

"The Mind Army(https://mindarmy.org) is a non-profit organization working to move the needle on the legalization of psychedelics with lobbying, social pressure, and celebrity influence. With the mission of “fighting for the right to pursue happiness,” it is currently petitioning the Drug Enforcement Agency to deschedule ibogaine, a powerful alkaloid that has been shown to help interrupt addiction. The Mind Army believes it has been incorrectly scheduled because the plant-derived psychedelic has been proven to be non-addictive."

"At this critical moment – in the middle of a suicide, addiction, anxiety, and depression (SAAD) epidemic – we don’t have time to wait before the most healing substances on the planet become available to the masses. Right now, when the human race needs healing more than ever, we’re demanding that people be allowed to legally access safe and effective psychedelic medicines that interrupt negative thought patterns and addictions. Mind Army has assembled the top legal experts in drug policy and reform to create immediate access for researchers and patients."

This track was created as a reminder there may be a lot of people, places, things, or experiences in life that may come along to attempt to "drag us down..." or that "smell" or lend us to "feeling" like shite; but, we can always choose to simply wipe our arses and walk away from them, rather than roll around in them. Most dogs are smart enough to realize if they cannot eat it, play with it, or snuggle with it... they can simply pee on something and walk away. It's funny; yet not... some humans think "certain folks" should roll around in "pile of doo..." situations and/or don't see themselves while they're do(o)ing it.

This mindset is prevalent even amongst the spiritually gifted... (aka... anyone and everyone who is open to overcoming the entrainment systems that made each of us shut down those gifts innately within us through the exposure to physically and emotionally body and brain altering toxins... whether biologically, neurologically, or chemically sourced. Hint hint, biologically includes alterations and manufacturing of things permitted to be sold as "food" and/or "beverages..." especially within the continental USA.) 

It's time we each take responsibility for our own lives, stop believing others can "read our minds" or owe us anything other than honesty; (especially if we don't have the courage to directly converse about what we want, need, or desire in our lives,)and it's time we "adult" by speaking or emailing with one another healthily, rather than living like "eternal teenie boppers" who think revving car engines or "communicating" through the 80's mixed tapes or songs era behavior is "impressive," past junior high or high school. If we want anything in life, reach out and show vulnerability, otherwise, we haven't learned the ultimate covid lockdown lesson... "time and life are precious." Would you rather reach out and be rejected or... die or have the one you love die... where you then remain "what if" ing yourself for the rest of your life about "what might have been" regarding a possible relationship, or career option, or life you'd always dreamt of living? It's time to continue to roll in doo doo... or... wipe our arses and take the steps towards receiving the people, places, things, and experiences we claim we want in our lives. The same goes for those in marriages with so much discord, both parties cannot interact outside their homes without spreading misery and judgmental behavior; because they remain in relationships out of guilt or fear of "starting over." Stop teaching kids and grandkids to remain in loveless marriages or to endure abuse because you are too lazy or afraid to start anew! Divorces don't HAVE to be filled with animosity, nor greed! People simply grow differently, some not at all... and it leads to growing apart, sometimes. If not now, when? People cannot read minds. Masks off, hearts on sleeves. Be. Bold. Be. True. Be. You.

Lyrics:
t’s Going Down The wait is over ——It’s going down now Savor the moment—-for what—-time allows  it’s going down——it’s going down——now it’s going down——it’s going down——now it’s going down now———Ah
Matrix been hacked—-so check your screen feed  this that powerpack top-pick legend in the league  IPG1’s back—- low drag high-speed  explosive on impact ——-giving you what you need
Lou letting loose on the mic  hear the call ——after all here’s the proof that I’m nice  me repping me —- so you gotta feel the hype  morning day noon and night Tear the roof down ——-sure you’re right ———- hot is lava ——watch me flip the script —-as cold as ice  double down ——leveled up ——just to break you off a slice
Going to take you to the next level ——stay in stride  hold on ——baby—-strap in—-for the ride
It’s going down  it’s going down now  it’s going down  it’s going down now ———-let’s goooooooo——ooooo (pan)
🔛—— fire in the hole —-here’s another heater  blowing up the track—-Ear candy—but-sweeter  I do it-all —-cause I can —— hear me holler back just another dope jam—-fam—-- I’m—down like that Better act like you know————-the complexity  Intense —-ain’t it bro —-don’t—-even question me bob your head to the rhythm ——— like you just——-agree  beats hitting—— like I won the state lottery ticket anyway —you want to—-I broke the mold  Bringing heat nonstop——body heart and Soul On top of the world—-and I’m feeling —— great Burning up this track——- kicking ———-808’s punching through——turned up —-like a heavyweight  With that underground bounce—spreading love not hate
The Wait—is over— Its’s going down —(X2) The Wait—is over— Its’s going down —(X2)
Doing better than good—-yeah —- I’m awesome  Peace keeping—run the hood —-like my kingdom  Earbuds in my ear —-pounding on my eardrums  check the swing on the beat yo—a home run  put a smile on my face—-dope production —tight beat 808’s——— from the underground  and that’s deeper than the levels——of a Stadium

Who I Am

I’m happy to post this song with help from my first SC friend https://soundcloud.com/espere-verde, who encouraged me on to improve my music making from a very start. Good musician & draughtsman (he did this artwork too), his vocal performance here gave the mood I couldn’t to the song.

Technical highlights:
>Most vocals: Espere Verde
>Music & almost no vocals: Ruizzoidman
>Odd patterns hidden along three levels in this track: amalgamated psycho-hard coating, usual 7/2 in punk/ska intermediate parts, and finally the sweater core is structured in groups of five measures.

Lyrics: strangely, I wrote about these stressing things when I was 21 and supposedly happy; I'd say similarly today I'm twice as old...

SIN MUJERES NI TABACO, SIN PRISAS  /  WITHOUT WOMEN OR TOBACCO, WITHOUT HURRIES
  
Todo lo que odio me ayuda a vivir,  /  Everything I hate helps me to live,
lo que me pone enfermo me empuja a seguir.  /  what gets me ill pushes me on.
Todo aquello que quiero dejar de sentir  /  Everything I want to stop feeling
es lo que da sentido a mi vivir.  /  is what gives sense to my life.
  
No puedo vivir sin mujeres,  /  I cannot live without women,
ni tabaco, sin prisas,  /  or tobacco, without hurries,
no puedo vivir.  /  I cannot live.
  
Mi ración horaria de tabaco  /  My hourly ration of tobacco
me mata por dentro.  /  kills me from inside.
Mi ración horaria de tabaco  /  My hourly ration of tobacco
me ayuda a vivir.  /  helps me to live.
Mi ración diaria de prisas  /  My daily ration of hurries
me saca los nervios.  /  gets me on my nerves.
Mi ración diaria de prisas  /  My daily ration of hurries
me empuja a seguir.  /  pushes me to continue.
  
Mi ración … de mujeres  /  My … ration of women 
me hace sufrir.  /  makes me suffer.
Mi ración … de mujeres  /  My … ration of women 
me ayuda a vivir.  /  helps me to live.
