SHRIKE DANCES ON A DEVIANCE TREE

Marcher, c'est des captures d'images, des sentiments qui se composent, se transforment, se ruminent en de douces pensées. Dans l'enlacement continu du parcours, cette source de satiété physique offre une richesse grandissante à l'esprit. La pérégrination ancre nos sens dans cette réalité.

Walking is capturing images, feelings that are composed, transformed, ruminated in sweet thoughts. In the continuous embrace of the journey, this source of physical satiety offers a growing richness to the spirit. The journey anchors our senses in this reality.

Ce projet se compose d'un prélude, d'une pièce principale, de cet interlude suivi de son postlude.

I wrote this song about a year ago and was inspired to write the music after my uncle passed away who was a big part of the 1960s underground and psychedelic music scene in london ,the hippies of that time would frequent a place called the ufo club where they would drop acid and watch such acts as the early syd barrett era pink floyd and many other upcoming music stars of that time.
This song is a bit introspective as well as all things must pass like the music it was an end of an era [jim 2023]

見えざる者 / invisible hand
===================

まるで夜が明けてゆくかのように
熱狂は冷めて
誰一人いなくなるのだろう
廃墟を残して

苛立ちは　不甲斐なさゆえ
悲しみは　溝の深さゆえ
無限ループに組み込まれたなら
万策尽きてしまう

見えざる者の手が　欲望に穢された今は
密かに　風の記憶を　待つ
見えざる者の手が　欲望に穢された今は
密かに　風の記憶を　待つ

それなりの試行錯誤
せまられる思考停止
どこかで　聴いたことのある　誘い文句

誰だって憤るさ
誰だって泣き崩れるさ
大切に育てた日々を
目の前で爆破されれば

見えざる者の手が　欲望に穢された今は
密かに　風の記憶を　待つ
見えざる者の手が　欲望に穢された今は
密かに　風の記憶を　待つ

まるで夜が明けてゆくかのように
熱狂は冷めて
誰一人いなくなるのだろう
廃墟を残して

苛立ちは　不甲斐なさゆえ
悲しみは　溝の深さゆえ
無限ループに組み込まれたなら
万策尽きてしまう

見えざる者の手が　欲望に穢された今は
密かに　風の記憶を　待つ
見えざる者の手が　欲望に穢された今は
密かに　風の記憶を　待つ
見えざる者の手が　欲望に穢された今は
密かに　風の記憶を　待つ

見えざる者 / invisible hand

I never had a life that I could trust
Everybody in it was an obstruction
Spending every fucking minute adjusting
Then you people wonder why i am erupting
This ain't the fucking world I grew up on
I look around and I am disgusted
I don't wanna discuss it

I'm combusting
A dynamic internal eruption
Trying to be a star but I'm nothing
No I'm nothing

I think I can.....

I solemnly swear 
To choke your fucking neck if you even fucking stare
Grab your hair throw you down the stairs 
I don't even care
When or how or where
I'll be there in a bloody fur coat
Fingers wrapped around your throat

I'll be there

I'll be there

Written 30 years ago, based on 2 Timothy 3…seems more relevant, now!

Lyrics:
Well, there’s an ocean for the draining 
Open empty skies, just waiting to be filled 
So many forests for the fire 
The love in life of many , it’s growing so cold 
Yeah, it’s growing so cold 

And I know a girl with a child she didn’t want 
And an angry young man, who only wants her love 
But I’m not free without the law 
And that defines the problems 
Who needs problems anymore? 
I don’t need them no more, that’s for sure 

Define deviance down 
Down upon the ground
It lifts you up, you get knocked back down
Define deviance down

So I’m wasting talent,my time, and all my money
For my will to be done, until Thy kingdom comes
Used to seem so wrong
Back in those days of black-and-white
But the shades of gray
Have left me blinded by the light
So now I call it right

What do I have to do with you?
Don’t know where we’re going
Are you going too?
Well, can’t you see?
Or are you so blind?
You just make your own rules
And leave the world behind
Don’t you know why?￼

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)-- @josh-clary-1: – piano, lap slide
                                       
 This song began by Chris writing it with his acoustic guitar at the beginning of last summer. He passed it along to me, who added the piano and slide parts. Then Chris got it back and added the rhythm section of bass and drums, along with some electric accents. It's been a few months since we've released a collaboration together, not by choice, but because of our busy lives. We have been working on this one for about half a year, trying to add and cut other elements into it. We ended up deciding to put out a simpler version, which is what you hear here. It's been a long time coming, and is our final offering of 2023. It's been a great year of sharing music with all of you out there in SoundCloud land. I appreciate all of your ears, support, and sharing of your talents. We hope you enjoy listening to this one as much as we enjoyed making it. Happy new year 2024!
P.s. Everyone should check out Chris's slightly different version on his page. It features him singing, and is a very cool treat indeed! Chris is in my top three creators on the whole Cloud. If you're not familiar with him, do yourself a favor and check out what he has on offer.

Art Expressed in Music – Monet's Evanescence Feat. Oddrun Eikli, vocals

Painting: Water Lillies, 1906
Evanescence: the quality of being fleeting or vanishing quickly, impermanence.
Oscar-Claude Monet (November 14th, 1840 – December 5th, 1926) was a French painter and founder of impressionist painting who is seen as a key precursor to modernism, especially in his attempts to paint nature as he perceived it. During his long career, he was the most consistent and prolific practitioner of impressionism's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature, especially as applied to outdoor landscape painting.  In 1899, he began painting the water lilies that would occupy him continuously for the next 20 years of his life.  At his home in Giverny, Monet created the water-lily pond that served as inspiration for his water lilly paintings. Depictions of the water lilies, with alternating light and mirror-like reflections, became an integral part of his work.  By the mid-1910s Monet had achieved "a completely new, fluid, and somewhat audacious style of painting in which the water-lily pond became the point of departure for an almost abstract art.  He would ultimately make over 250 paintings of the Waterlilies.  In 1911, Monet began to develop the first signs of possible cataracts.  In the following years, his perception of color suffered; his broad strokes were broader and his paintings were increasingly darker.  He eventually underwent cataract surgery in 1923.  Now "able to see the real colors", he began to destroy canvases from his pre-operative period.  Upon receiving tinted Zeiss lenses, Monet was pleased with the results, although his left eye soon had to be entirely covered by a black lens. By 1925, his visual impairment was improved and he began to retouch some of his pre-operative works, with bluer water lilies than before.  Monet died of lung cancer on December 5th 1926 at the age of 86.  Although critical acclaim was slow in coming, Monet attracted the dedicated support of collectors throughout his career, most notably from Americans who discovered his work in the 1880s.  Monet's popularity soared in the second half of the 20th century, when his works traveled the world in museum exhibitions that attracted record-breaking crowds and marketed popular commercial items featuring imagery from his art.

This is the lead track from the set of songs that I began with Wou-Wou & the Wormling during the start of the turmoil and chaos brought upon by the pandemic. This is also the first part of four tracks within the album directly based on Wou-Wou’s comic, The Shrike. It has been incredible working with Bitzone and Stricknice throughout the project as well. It is always cool when the everyone in the stag heard works well togehter and brings distinct yet complimentary ideas to the mix. Big thanks also to Weighty Tree for introducing his groovy style of neopsychedelica to the rut! 

May everyone be victorious at their turn during the rut.

Lyrics

Intro
Several weeks after the events of The Great Scurry, all had returned back to normal in the autumnal forest. Nature has a way of quickly shaking off the traumas of the past and returning to its most basic of desires. You see, all of life yearns to mate and procreate, and while most that experience defeat from the stronger or rejection from those seeking the fitter, muster the determination to get back up again, some take their spurning to heart, as if they were more deserving than nature intended, where it festers and begins to grow a new grotesque life of its own.     

Verse
Word 
Yo
As antlers crashed with the desperation of lust 
And the scent of musk in the air
I couldn’t help but take notice there
Was a sweet smell of autumn 
Carried in the gust 
Of wind  
It is a beautiful time of the year
When the does come into estrus 
And there is only one thing on my mind
I must get some of that behind 
I find
Times like these to be harbingers 
That linger
I could count times like these on my fingers
If I didn’t have hooves 
And wasn’t crashing to the ground 
With the sound of defeated dreams 
Of games of hard to get
And multiple days of getting wet 
I let the overwhelming excitement of rut
Get the best of me 
And now am crest fallen to see
The Doe that I thought was mine
Walk away with the buck that brought me down to the twines
Uh

For Corelle

I start this new album with better sound by means of one of my more beloved and evolved songs ever, a structured piece with progressing parts.

BIEN, MAL (LLUVIA VIEJA)    /   WELL, BADLY (OLD RAIN)

Sí, no, ¿por qué no?   /   Yes, no, why not? 
estoy pensando que esto no es lo mejor.   /   I am thinkinkg this is not the best.
Bien, mal, ¿tú qué tal?   /   Well, badly, what about you?
de repente me he puesto a pensar.   /   Suddenly I have started to think.

El tiempo esparcido entre mis amigos   /   Time scattered among my friends
 es el más valioso cuando estoy contigo.   /   is the most valuable one when I am with you
Los ratos vividos estando contigo   /   Moments lived being with you
 son reconfortantes cuando estoy perdido.   /   are comforting when I feel lost. 
Tengo que buscarlos entre mis amigos,   /   I must search for them among my friends
tengo que encontrarlos, pero ya se han ido todos.   /   I must find them, but they are all gone already.

Fumando   /   Smoking

mojados de lluvia vieja.   /   wet with old rain

 que me llevan flotando   /   carry me floating
 a estar con ella.   /   to be with her

soy todavía quien empezaste a querer.   /   I am still who you started do love

Soy todavía quien empezaste a querer.  /   I am still who you started do love
