Nice section and very cool choise of a bass synth to acompany the guitar.

Liking hearing you sing high here. A very original take on a classic.

thanks for giving this new life, I thought I could not listen to this one again, but the piper has led me to reason..

Make All New.....

A wonderful poem that I heard on during February Album Writer's Month 2021, which I added an improvised slow air to. It's short but oh so sweet!

Please check out Roddy's work on Bandcamp, for he is the poet that inspired this tune. https://roddy.bandcamp.com/album/the-three-ukulele-band

Twa folk in the wan house
Bidin’ the gither, biden apairt 
Keekin’ oot ae different windaes
Bidin’ the gither, slidin’ apairt 

So they got a dug each and went oot walkin’
Twa couples oot on their ane
Stayin’ the gither but avoiding each ither
Walking the gither but aye alane

Now they talk mair tae their dugs than each ither 
Care mair for the dugs than fur each ither 
Share mare with the dugs than each ither 
Walkin the gither, pulling apart 

Twa folk in the wan house
Bidin’ the gither, biden apairt 
Keekin’ oot tae different windaes
Bidin’ the gither slidin’ apairt

This Is – How Deep Is Your House

You Know You Like It (Wilfred Giroux Remix)

Supersonic Tartan Death Machine returns, with a cover of an iconic 80s song...

Many thanks to my mates on the iPad Musician Facebook group, who came up with the thread about 80s synth bands, new wave and all that. It was a very awesome discussion! It inspired me to make this track... at a time when I'd been feeling a little down...

Cover song and arrangement of "I Ran". Original Arrangement by J.McCarthy • STDM, September 2013
Original version by Flock of Seagulls. All rights to song owned by Flock of Seagulls, of course.

Update 21 October: WOW! Thanks for all the "Likes" people, as I am sure you can see it is the most I have ever had on a track. Please if you like it, give it a repost, let's get this track going far and wide through the SC universe. And hey, should I look at getting this onto iTunes!? Post a comment!! Cheers!


I Ran

"Pyromancer" is a fiery folk metal song about the conquest of a medieval fortress. Can something be more metal than fire, magic and a heavy wall of guitars?!

This song is what happens when weird ideas come to another and bring people together. The catchy melody longed for a hurdy gurdy and heavy guitars.  Jordan's power metal falsetto brought my pen and paper inspired lyrics into life. A rough demo of us two summoned Stephan and Simon, who handed in plenty of bass, mandoline and guitar takes. Ben had an idea for a violin solo I could never think of. We ended up writing and recording a metal song that may never existed, if we took ourselves too serious. We already had a videoclip in mind, but I grabbed my graphics tablet instead and drew the pyromancer with that evil grin on his face. 

Thanks for the joy you've brought to me. I hope you enjoy the song as much as we do! We wish you a happy new year - and now let the pyros go off!

This song is part of my album "Going My Way" which can be downloaded at Bandcamp.

==== LYRICS ====

Looking for a glimpse of fire
eyes burning with desire
When all warriors cross their blades
you're ready for the raids

Bastards climbing up the walls
They heed the final call
Archers firing into night
Call fellows to unite

This is your last turn
Let the ashes burn
Pyromancer!

Cloven hooves pervade the walls
As men fall into brawls
Ascent of fire on dried grass
Listen to that swelling brass

The brotherhood fulfills its aims
As foes burn down in flames
Ashes are all that remains
The smell of our disdain

This is your last turn
Let the ashes burn
Pyromancer!

This is your last turn
Let the ashes burn
Pyromancer!

Going My Way

Pyromancer

The title track of this brand new album comes from the need for change. Because only by espousing and embracing change do we truly grow... and by settling for mediocrity do we ever truly ever achieve happiness?

Huge thanks to Shawn McClure from Rude Duke on electric guitar, a good friend of mine whom I respect very much for his talents, and for taking the time to lend his talents to my album.

The album, and this track, are now on Bandcamp!

Lorde - Tennis Court (Flume Remix)

I started learning music theory to visit Mark in Arizona.   This song happened because of my that.
Thanks to Mark, Eman and Ian for helping me out with learning theory.
Thanks to Matt to listening to my lead over and over.

Coldplay - Magic (AlunaGeorge Remix)

Perhaps the ultimate version of Stairway to Heaven... with BAGPIPES. EVER!! 

This, in advance of my newest album to release on 1 May 2015, my 5th album, my 2015 FAWM album. I have put about as much love into that project and it carries over here into the iconic Led Zeppelin hit you are now feasting your ears on :)

This is like my ultimate cover song for 2015, just like https://soundcloud.com/supersonictartandeathmachine/riders-on-the-storm was 2014's.

Inspired by none other than my daughter practicing the last 2 bars of it on her Recorder, I dedicate this song to her, and to ALL those who thought it was impossible, to play Stairway to Heaven with bagpipes... or on the bagpipes... or whatever... I don't care! 

So for all you JOKERS who walked up to me over the years and requested it, I am having the last laugh, you will now be able to listen to this online. Thanks for your support! 

So thanks for listening folks and I hope you come and check out the 5th instalment of the Supersonic Tartan Death Machine discography, on Bandcamp, iTunes, Google Play, Spotify and all that other stuff. Friday, May 1st, 2015!! http://supersonictartandeathmachine.bandcamp.com/album/doppelg-nger

LYRICS

If you don't know them by now you've been living under a rock. But the most important line is 

"And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune, 
Then the piper will lead us to reason...." ;)

The revivalist

A one-man, iOS, Cybernetic, Mutagenic, Electro-Celtic Fusion Wonder band. "They could clone Dolly but they couldn't clone ME...!" 

Welcome to the world of 

Supersonic Tartan Death Machine (STDM) = Bagpipe-Driven Electro-Celtic Fusion. I call it "électrocelte". Recorded @ BearCave Studios Montreal using an iPad + iPhone + a host of awesome iOS apps.

Instruments used include: Great Highland Bagpipe, Border Pipes, John Walsh Shuttle Pipes, Practice Chanter, Irish Whistle in A, B flat,and D, Bombarde, Voice. 

Tech Tools used include: CME X-key 25 MIDI Controller, iPad, iPhone, Zoom H6, iRig HD, Propellerhead Balance, Sennheiser Dynamic headphones. 

Apps used include (amongst others)Animoog, Audacity, Audiobus, Audioshare, Audio Mastering, Beatmaker 2, BeatTime, dJay, Figure, FourTrack, Glitchbreaks, Impaktor, Korg Gadget, Logic Pro X, NanoStudio, ReMaster, Reason 8, Samplr, studio.HD, SunVox, THOR, ThumbJam, Turnado and of course GarageBand for iOS.

Music: the music and stylings are widely varied. From traditional tunes to self-composed original bagpipe compositions, to covers of popular Scottish songs, or even rock songs. There really are no limits... new ideas are churning through my mind almost weekly. Some tunes start off with a bagpipe tune. Others start off with a few beats worked out on an iOS device. I often sing new tunes to myself, record them on my iOS device and then write them down... and the creative process continues...

Come see (and Like!) the STDM Facebook Page, for updates, images & uploads •Get Down With The Death Machine! • http://www.facebook.com/SupersonicTartanDeathMachine

DISCLAIMER: if I do not follow back on SoundCloud do not be offended, I usually WILL follow back people with sounds. If you have ZERO SOUNDS I do not usually follow back. Sorry about that! I still absolutely acknowledge your existence AND appreciate your support.

I also run my tracks from my musical alter-ego @elfpants on this account because for some reason SoundCloud doesn't allow multiple artist accounts on a Pro account... 

Lastly, I am member of Celtic Prog Rock Trio "Dun Aenghus" and of "Whatever The Majority Decides" (see links). The work I have done with these groups is also posted on my page. I have done a bit of writing lyrics, singing, playing Irish Whistle and Highland Pipes for Dun Aenghus, and singing and lyric writing for WTMD. Great fun!!

 Slainte...
