Simply..... Great music 1

Thanks for all your encouraging comments and support on Red Earth Clay, We appreciate you all!!!

The guy I used to be-Heaven's sad

U Got -  I Saw U In Belgium

Words and music Kevin Gennery
image not my own
(recorded on a 8 track Adat machine through a Seck analogue desk............ more bouncing than Zebedee!!!)

Happy face smiling away,
but desperation lies beneath my blistered skin.
You'll never know cause i won't let it show,
carry on as if there's nothing wrong with me.

I hope the sun ain't gonna shine today,
love the rain to keep tipping down,
don't tell me how you're moving on,
feel i'm slipping into squishier ground,
every thing that comes my way,
brings a truck load of trouble again.

A cheeky grim hides what's in,
side of me internally i'm clinging on to,
a glimmer of hope let's just say i cope,
every now and then when i feel iv'e turned the corner. 

I hope the sun ain't gonna shine today,
love the rain to keep tipping down,
don't tell me how you're moving on,
feel i'm slipping into squishier ground,
every thing that comes my way,
brings a truck load of trouble again.

No promises were made to me, no promises were given to me, no promises.

happy face

First track of a new album where I'll try to be more eclectic, with closer approach to some genres. Experimented on this one over-editing vocal line on the left, and getting midi files out of organic guitar melodies, which I could play with virtual instruments. I hope you'll enjoy a different Ruizzoid shape.

Dedicated to Germán Coppini’s ‘Golpes Bajos’, one of my favorite groups of the Spanish ‘Nueva Ola’.

Lyrics (original/translated):

NO TODO ACABA (JUGUETES ROTOS)  /  NOT EVERYTHING ENDS (BROKEN TOYS)

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba,  /  Make me think that not everything ends,
hay cosas en la vida que no cambian nada.  /  there are things in life which don’t change at all.
Hazme pensar que no estás gastada,  /  Make me think that you are not worn,
que el paso de los años no te cambió nada.  /  that the passing years didn’t change you at all.

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba.(bis)  /  Make me think that not everything ends. (bis)

Juguetes rotos, muñecas olvidadas,  /  Broken toys, forgotten dolls,
la imagen de mi espejo parece cansada.  /  the image from my mirror seems to be tired.
La voz de la noche ya no me llama,  /  The voice of the night doesn’t call me anymore,
me  resisto a pensar que todo se acaba.  /  I refuse to think that everything ends.

Hazme pensar que lo nuestro no acaba  /  Make me think that our thing doesn’t end
cuando despierte por la mañana.  /  when I wake up in the morning.
Hazme pensar en ti con calma,  /  Make me think about you calmly,
hazme creer que te tengo amarrada.  /  make me think that I get you tied up.

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba.(bis)  /  Make me think that not everything ends. (bis)

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba,  /  Make me think that not everything ends,
hazme creer que aún estoy en casa,  /  make me think that I’m still at home,
hazme pensar que duermo entre sábanas,   /  make me think that I sleep between sheets,
hazme pensar que nada cambia.  /  make me think that nothing changes.

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba.(bis)  /  Make me think that not everything ends. (bis)

Lyrics:

Oh so now you're sad, 
You still gotta live till you die, 
Oh Mr. Ruger, 
Won't you give me my wings to fly, 

Oh so now you're scared, 
It's OK cause ain't nobody there, 
Oh you're so bored now, 
Whether you be here or you're there, 

I remember screaming, 
Nobody heard any shouts, 
Oh child you were beaten, 
Get your ass up, go out and play!

Peace, Love & Harmony in the Midst of Chaos

Lyrics:

My mind is twisted and running causing all my pain
It's hard to do all the simple little things

Please reconnect my soul
Please rewire my mind x3

I find myself wondering round and round again
Not knowing where to stop or even begin

Please reconnect my soul
Please rewire my mind x3

In Your Veins (Three Photons featuring The Gatsbys)
Thanks to Dirk Taubenheim for agreeing to help with this song. When I heard his Gretsch guitar play through the first chorus… I could not contain my smile….


Tim Griffis (Fender Strat and Les Paul Guitars, Vocals, Drums arranged using XLN Audio)
Dirk Taubenheim (Acoustic, Bass, and Gretsch Guitars, Backing Vocals)

This song was recorded using Pro Tools and summed through an old API 8200 and 7800 summing mixer with API Compressor and EQ on the mix bus....back into Pro Tools.  

Verse 1 
You’ve got lightning in your veins
You run your best race in the driving rain
Pick up the pace again
So much to see, my friend 

Chorus 1 
Feel the light and the heat in your veins
Pick up the pace again 
So much to see, my friend 

Verse 2
You’ve got a stranger living in your head
Sometimes it’s the voice of love
Sometimes it’s just another black hole
Pick up the pace again
So much to see, my friend 

Chorus 2 
Feel the light and the heat in your veins
Pick up the pace again 
So much to see, my friend 

Bridge 
Feel the light and the heat -  in your veins
I hear your voice
it’s in my veins
It’s in my veins, again

Verse 3
You’ve got lightening in your veins
You run your best race in the pouring rain
Pick up the pace again
There’s so much to see

Outro 
In the driving rain…. 
Pick up the pace again
There’s so much to see
There’s so much to feel
In the driving rain.

In your veins (ft. The Gatsbys)

my inner is staring in the fireplace
come around and keep me from myself

i know you'll never let me down
and i don't know my way around here
because i wade through a surreal dream

and in my head
a band is playing a sweet melody
you are dancing like a fairy
to the sound of our destiny

can you spot me in my fairytale
let's walk the paths of our fate

don't realize what's going around
i have to reach higher ground
because i wade through a surreal dream

and in my head
a band is playing a sweet melody
you are dancing like a fairy
on the carousel of our destiny

Hi all friends,
My wonderful 4-year old Granddaughter taught me a new concept: "Act of Ice".
"Not sharing", is for example, an act of ice, she told me! And - GrandPa performed an act of Ice!!!


Lyrics:

Act of Ice

Sometimes there are tears all over their face
and the reasons may be various
they are sometimes the victims of acts of ice
from the boys and the girls
in the neighbourhood 
and they get inconsolable
but there are moments when a cup of hot chocolate can cure all the pain

When youngsters they are all the small things are huge
from pebbles to big mountains
they are sensitive for injustice which are acts of ice
from their parents or their friends
in the neighbourhood 
and they get inconsolable
but there are moments when a cup of hot chocolate can cure all the pain

When teenagers they are new problems occur
the relations may be harder
they may be victims of bullying which is an act of ice
which may be written on the net
on the social medias
and they get inconsolable
but there are moments when a cup of hot chocolate cannot cure all the pain

Act of Ice

entwined empire of love   

the newest paradigme born
tossed in politics storm

[every time]

miles high up above
floating clear gossamer
entwined empire of love
you can see      you can see
[we trust   in divinity   our programming]

the latest welcomed advancement
rising high in our entanglement

miles high up above
floating clear gossamer
entwined empire of love
you can see      you can see

exquisitely superfluously falling from the sky
challenging it all... take the fall  in such trust   we love

elevated consciousness lapping waves up so high
ascending it all taking the fall in such trust   we love   love 

[old intelligence does wane
siding to commom sense]

miles high up above
floating clear gossamer
entwined empire of love
you can see      you can see
pure blue  pure green and light  

lyrics - johns of soundboard tinkerers march/april 2019

entwined empire of love  [soundboard tinkerers and petri - original]

Inspired from the tales and myths of old when ancient aliens were the gods and ruled and shaped our world into what it is today in this original spaced out mysterious foot stomping triumphant electronic psychedelic trance sci-fi styled instrumental adventure journey! Hope you enjoy Cheers :D

Trip 4 Sale

Ancient Aliens 👽

Pan was a lascivious Satyr of the mountains and the God of the Shepherds and the Flocks. His main task was to render the flocks fertile.
Of course, this mythical character relates to a fragment of the human psyche, which if given free rein...often shepherds those under "his" spell through the garden of delights, leaving them to repent at their leisure.

Here is also an attempt a composition in the Dorian Mode.
I don't really know if I even got close.
It was my best guess.

You may notice that the underlying rhythm is 8/8,
while the overlaid melodies are 3/4.

This EP is lovingly dedicated to Alphio, remembered by all of the SoundCloud community as Alpha Roots. 

Alpha Roots brought the irie vibrations and had us all skanking on the regular. His positive lyrics and vocals raised the collective consciousness and his genre spanning tunes, inspired many to collaborate, and kept our creative fires burning. Alpha Roots was a loving soul that will always be remembered by our tight community. We keep the spirit of Alpha Roots alive each time we listen to his music.

For an unknown reason, I always felt a strong urge to make another version of Hosanna and once Alpha Roots passed away, the impetus became undeniable. I was called to ask Soundwanderer, a regular collaborator with Alpha Roots, to lay a new musical foundation over the Binghi Biscuits rhythm. After Soundwanderer dropped the mad flavor with a truly heartfelt and touching musical performance, I asked Janine Levinson to compliment my newly recorded vocals to really make this dedication to Alphio super special. Russ, who also collaborated with Alphio, was the obvious choice to mix and master the track and really bring Alpha Roots' sprit back to life. I did my best to regularly ask Alphio what he wanted with this remake of Hosanna and I feel the song turned out as he would have liked it. 

Huge thanks to Wou-Wou & the Wormling for blessing this song with his beautiful artwork. Wou-Wou listened to the song and was inspired to draw this picture of Jah Lion being hugged by a young spirit; which reminded Russ of this picture of Alpha Roots:

Lyrics 

On a day sweetened by a breeze that enlightens us with prana 
I wanna climb this earth to find a place where we will sing hosanna 
hosanna, hosanna 
I wanna climb this earth to sing hosanna 

And in sweet meditation we will meet to dance in ultimate freedom 
Floating in the universal ghee outside of Vishnu’s dream in Eden 
In Zion, in Eden 
We will meet to dance in ultimate freedom 
In Eden, in Zion 
We will meet to dance in ultimate freedom 

And we will meet again my friend 
In Zion, in Eden 
And we will meet to dance again 
In freedom, in freedom 
In Zion, in Eden 
We will meet again my friend

Texte :

On nous dit que le temps qui passe 
Permet parfois d’oublier ce qui nous a fait souffrir 
Et qu’après les grimaces 
On pourrait bien recommencer un jour à sourire 

Et si tu m’aimes encore 
N’attends pas le soleil soit un astre mort 
Oui si tu m’aimes encore 
Non n’attends pas que les océans s’évaporent 

Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 
Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 
Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 
Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 

Avec les années tout se tasse 
Et tout finit peu à peu par sombrer dans l’oubli et 
S’il est vrai que tout s’efface 
Alors, les pensées, les peines et les regrets aussi 

Et si tu m’aimes encore 
N’attends pas le soleil soit un astre mort 
Oui si tu m’aimes encore 
Non n’attends pas que les océans s’évaporent 

Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 
Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 
Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 
Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 


.../... 


Et si tu m’aimes encore 
N’attends pas le soleil soit un astre mort 
Oui si tu m’aimes encore 
Non n’attends pas que les océans s’évaporent 

Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 
Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 
Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde 
Si tu veux de moi, retrouve-moi, on s’aimera jusqu’à la fin monde

Strange Days have tracked us down
They're goin to Destroy
Our Casual Joys
We shall go on playing or find a New Town

Voices will signal their tired End

Her Guests Sleep from Sinning 
Hear me talk of Sin and you know this is It

Bodies Confused
Memories Misused
As we run from the Day to a Strange Night of Stone!!!

Amour monstre

Mon amour
tes regards insistants
comme des lances
me transpercent...

Mon amour
je te garde à tout instant
sous la vigilance
de ma herse...

Cet amour
que tu me montres
est-il lumineux ou sombre?

Mon amour
à ton encontre
est le plus fort au monde !

Comme ta bouche
se fait caressante et tendre
mais tes dents
me mordent encore...

De ta bouche
je ne veux rien entendre.
Secrètement
je te dévore...

Cet appétit
que tu me montres
est-il celui d'un monstre ?

Petit à petit
à ton encontre
j'éprouve un amour monstre !

Mon cœur lourd
dans tes filtres d'amour
à petit feu
s'empoisonne...

Mon cœur est sourd :
ta détresse je savoure.
Mon seul vœux :
que tu frissonnes...

Plus je cours
pour te fuir
plus ton amour est immonde...

Nul recours
je vais te nuire
jusqu'à la fin du monde...

Plus tu cours
pour me fuir
plus mon amour t'innonde !

Au secours
je ne veux souffrir
jusqu'à la fin du monde... du monde... du monde...

Amour monstre [Gina Wood / Amanda Sanderson / Lukowig]

I feel blessed to be able to keep Alpha Roots’ vibe shining bright for the SoundCloud community to continue to enjoy. 

Alpha Roots sent me these reggae bass and rhythm guitar stem a long time ago, maybe even three years ago in 2016 (bad couch, bad couch)! I originally planned on having Evelyn (of the Reiki Run Rampant tracks on my page) sing over the rhythm but then I moved from Santa Cruz to Portland and she moved from the Pacific Northwest to Santa Cruz, bummer! So the stems sat in my hard drive until new inspiration arrived in the form of Johnny Minstrel, one of favorite song writers on SoundCloud, agreeing to write lyrics and sing over the track. Once Johnny added his deep felt lyrics and magical vocal chords to the mix, the rest of the song came together pretty quickly for me, lol! I often try to put together virtual bands for my tracks and I knew I had to have Jamie Rhind on the track since he worked with Alphio on multiple songs and a reunion was due. I always wanted to work with Jonathan Beckenstein, whose sensitive and thoughtful guitar work is always sublime. Darren and Russ came naturally.  My original drum production work was based on an old Sly Dunbar sample (I like to include the essence of some of my favorite artists in the tracks I work on) but the quality of the drums just wasn’t up to Russ’ standards, hahaha, so we brought Bitzone on board to lay down some drums and voila, roots reggae magic!

Big thanks to the band for coming together on this in fine fashion! Big ups to the SoundCloud community and the spirit of collaboration. Keep on digging! 

And massive thanks to Wou-Wou to bringing his visual arts talent to the project! My goal is to eventually put together a reggae album (possibly a double album which will also include some reggae collaborations between Alpha Roots and friends including Jamie Rhind and Russ Sinfield) with all profits going to the Cancer Research Institute. Be on the look out for a possible dub version of Red Earth Clay as well!!!

Lyrics: 
Hold you tongue don’t wag that finger
Just shine a light on me my friend
Too much fuss will only hinder
All the good things the spirit sends
We were made of dust and fire
Born beneath a brooding sky
On the stairs of Babel we climb higher 
To sights not seen by human eye

And now I dig, dig deep into the 
Red Earth Clay
Dig, dig deep
And I toil for no pay
I dig, dig deep into the
Red Earth Clay
Down to the root I’ll find my way

Some have called democracy into question
Saying we like sheep have gone astray
That it’s been the rich man’s intention
To steel by night and rule by day
I washed your feet with my tears
I wiped them dry with my hair
Can a hungry mouth still offer prayers
Or are they whispers of despair 

And now I dig, dig deep into the 
Red Earth Clay
Dig, dig deep
And I toil for no pay
I dig, dig deep into the
Red Earth Clay
Down to the root I’ll find my way
I dig, dig deep into the
Red Earth Clay
Dig, dig deep
And I toil for no pay
I dig, dig deep into the
Red Earth Clay
Down to the root I’ll find my way
