WELL, BADLY, HOW DO YOU DO?

featuring @4catsncoffee on violin
:
Suddenly you come across an opening in the forest - a fading landscape of forgotten names...
fading green is the third tune off the d'ville EP >soundcloud.com/jh0st/sets/dville

--------------------lyrics

No one said that
we would see
Family to no one
Sunlight through trees
No one asked for
an early grave

Stones of names a fade away…

When the clouds come down
water upside down
Order of each name
Feather on tongue

Thousand heart beats in the trees
now gone on the wings of…

day's fading green

d'ville

fading green

fading green [ft. 4catsncoffee]

I was inspired to write this song by a film score.
A bit melancolic, but maybe just the right thing for the autumn season.

For You

Music: Jan Schonander

Another Friday night sitting as it were, but this time developed over a little time. I played this for my wife and she said it made her think of blue fireflies in the night and hence the image. Took a while to find the first Fm/C/C7 progression then I just carried on from there. Although I thought about adding complexity in the end I decided that less was more in this case. 

The piano piece itself is not very difficult to play, but as I do not own a Steinway Grand the challenge was finding a digital instrument that did the trick in terms of tone. I started out with my Korg SV-1, even changed the keyboard bed but there was something about the sharpness of the high keys (always been an issue on the Korg) that just didn’t sound right. I then tried the Ravenskraft VST, highly recommended in reviews, and found that the overall sound was too dull for my liking.  After years of thinking (not about this piece) this prompted me to finally bring a Nord Stage 3 home. Initially I was disappointed in the piano engine but after a while I learned to set it up to my liking as well as got used to the feel of a different keyboard. This particular piano is the fully mapped Royal Grand 3D with a little bit of reverb and the bass turned down a smidgen. The violin is also a native Nord sample with some delay.

It also turns out that bouncing a pure unprocessed piano track from Logic Pro X sounds a lot better than trying to improve it with the various algorithms in Izotope Ozone.

This is a single take piano performance without any edits.

This song is the opening track from my new album with the Littoral Drift.  Josh Peters https://soundcloud.com/jdylanp was gracious enough to sit in and play on these tracks. His drumming is unique, stylish, and passionate. He brings a lot of flavor to every song on this new album. During recording, I gave him little direction and told him I wanted him to feel total freedom to explore the tune and the vibe. It inspires his playing. We mixed the album together and decided to call the new band The Littoral Drift. The Littoral drift, or longshore sediment transport, is the term used for the longshore transport of sediments (mainly sand), along the upper shoreface due to the action of breaking and longshore currents.

Lyrics:
Born with a nanny and a silver spoon
No complaints no complaints
Broken down wifi can’t get no display
Plain and mundane just plain and mundane

Rolling the dice and feeling the spice
Credited for your glee 
Byzantine pleasure couches of leather
Sprinkled Freud into their sleep
Blameless faceless can’t tell the difference
They all look the same to me
Kaleidoscope of colors forming on the mother
Dark heart formed repressively
Down in the dumps could have been a contender
Blame the mob and learn the lesson
 jingles and  jangles of  holiday pretenders
Blindness to the seedy oppression
It doesn’t affect me so I don’t care

So many out there just fighting for their share. 

Just like animals we rip and we tear
Floating and bobbing hoping it ends
Nothing gets wasted in the nature of things
Recycled promises hang from the wing

Too many trampled just trying to see
Sitting pretty from the perch in their tree
Pulling for the ringer   tribal thought lingers
 avarice raises its middle finger.

Blameless faceless can’t tell the difference
They all look the same to me
Kaleidoscope of colors forming on the mother
Dark heart formed repressively
Down in the dumps could have been a contender
Blame the mob and learn the lesson
 jingles and  jangles of  holiday pretenders
Blindness to the seedy oppression
It doesn’t affect me so I don’t care
So many out there just fighting for their share.

The Littoral Drift

The Nature of Things

Ever since my personal discovery of the writings and musings of Terence McKenna in the mid 90’s I have been both fascinated & amused by a hypothesis of his that some have referred to as: The Stoned Ape Theory.

Here is a fun read on it by Kiki Dy.

The Stoned Ape Theory: Pseudoscience or Psychedelic Origin of Modern Man?

Did early humans accelerate evolution by tripping balls on psychedelic mushrooms? One psychonaut ethnobiologist says: absolutely.

Let’s set the scene: 100,000 years ago, in the age before recorded history, our early hominid ancestors started abandoning the forests and traveling across savannahs. As they foraged in new environments, they began evolving faster, cleverer brains that eventually tripled in size. How did they accomplish this? One theory suggests that they unknowingly added psilocybin to their diet and tripped their way to high-level consciousness. 

The Stoned Ape Theory is a hypothesis by one of America’s most influential psychonauts, Terence McKenna. With knowledge of ecology, conservation, and shamanism, McKenna united his interests in his study of psychedelics. McKenna earned his degrees from the University of California-Berkeley’s Tussman Experimental College, and his extensive writings served as some of the West’s first exposure to the psychedelics DMT and ayahuasca. 

Though he died in 2000, McKenna’s lifetime of advocating for the exploration of altered states of mind still influences modern psychonauts today. The Stoned Ape Theory is only one way in which he attempted to shift the world’s view of psychedelics.

Stoned Ape Theory | 148 - 151 BPM

Recorded Live, a song about life and Death which go hand in Hand. 
Written and recorded by: Johnny Mc Farlane

It’s like honey from the bees it’s like cold ice cream 
It’s the most beautiful thing that you have ever seen 
Its like misty morning rain, its like a rainbows end 
Its the love in your heart for your best friend 

Its like ice cold beer on a warm summers day 
It’s the wind in your hair it’s the cold sea spray 
Its like waking in the morning  from a good night rest 
When your little boy tells you, “ Daddy you’re the best “

Its like when heaven and earth meet , when all the stars collide 
When your not alone and everyone’s on your side 
Its like coffee in the morning  or that 1st cigarette 
Its a powerful feeling that you never will forget 

It’s the morning sun on a bright sunny day 
Its like watching your kids as they skip and dance and play 
It’s the 1st flowers of Spring as they peak through the snow 
It’s the morning tide as it begins to Ebb and Flow 

And as the birds fly high soaring in the sky 
I hear the angels calling my name from way up on high 
Like the leaves in Autumn falling from the trees 
We all have to leave this place we are but a breeze 

And all we have are memories or experiences we have had 
The beautiful, the ulgy, the happy and the sad 
All weave an everlasting tapestry our legacy to recall 
And so with these last words my friends I say goodbye to all. 

It’s like honey from the bees it’s like cold ice cream 
You are the most beautiful thing that i have ever seen

Lost In An Indian Suburbs

its a song that is using the metaphor of a tsunami to illustrate the wave of destruction that will drown the elite power structure that is on the way out 😉

Unknown Horizons

Higher In Padstow

In so Deep 

I'm carryin' weight – beast of burden streets of Ankara
My feet they hurt – my saddle gonna wrench apart
My hunger never stops – the wave it never crests
I’m drowning in consequence

I’m in so deep – and I won’t let you down a bit
It’s history – I made you all these promises
Our worlds depart – the continents divide
I’m in so deep – I can look you in the eye

Haven’t felt a falter – never told you a lie
Is it in the realm – that the others will survive
When I see you in the door – I’m clutching a sea wall
In the Bosphorous

Long ago – she had my full devotion
I changed her name – like Constantinople
I felt the streets go dead
All the hawkers they had fled - Into armament

Behind a curtain – breathing incense and a huffin’ pipe
Mural on the wall – the mountains of Anatolia
If I have to pick and choose
I can’t crawl away from you - You’re in my heart

I’m in so deep – and I won’t let you down a bit
It’s history – I made you all these promises
Our world’s depart – the continents divide
I’m in so deep – I can look you in the eye

IN SO DEEP

Step Up!

After hearing Sarah here on Soundcloud, I knew right away that I wanted to write for her and work with her. Luckily for me, she agreed and so ‘Exit’ was born. With Sarah’s beautiful voice and poignant lyrics, as well as Alba’s incredible guitar, this has been a very special track to put together. I haven’t released anything in almost ten months…and it feels wonderful to be back.
You can hear Sarah at https://soundcloud.com/voiceofgolding

New MV 黒点
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDQaNRIjosQ

黒点 - MV ver YouTube  -

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.

LETRA   /   TRANSLATED LYRICS:

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 
tras los cristales   /   behind the windows
mojados de lluvia vieja.   /   wet with old rain
Recuerdos   /   Memories
 que me llevan flotando   /   carry me floating
 a estar con ella.   /   to be with her

Tengo que buscarlos entre mis amigos.   /   I must search for them among my friends

Tú, yo, ¿qué sé yo?   /   You, me, what do I know?
está lloviendo pero tengo calor.   /   It is raining but I feel hot
Qué, quién, ¡mírame!   /   What, who, look at me !
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

Bien, mal (Lluvia vieja)

A tune from the 2016 sessions , I hadn't listened to this track in a while-after a listen I thought I would post it today. This tune was influenced by the band Diamond Head , a band who have inspired many other great bands. The middle section was influenced by Rush , a band that I have loved since I was a young dude & of course Led Zep have a huge influence on so many facets of my own writing. I hope y'all dig the vibe folks.

WELL, BADLY, HOW DO YOU DO?
