Tomorrow, 22 August 2022, marks ten years since my brother Bri died. Hard to believe. I remember that day as if it were yesterday. His ashes were released into the River Thames, from the towpath that runs alongside Fulham football ground (quaintly known as ‘Craven Cottage’). He’d been a lifelong supporter of the club so this seemed a very appropriate resting place for him.

For those unaware of the sporting ritual, nearly every year since 1839, there's been a boat race on The Thames between Oxford & Cambridge Universities, held on a course between Putney and Mortlake. It is quite the occasion, with crowds lining the banks of the river for much of the four mile, 374 yard distance. It is broadcast live by the BBC and the Fulham stadium can clearly be seen as the crews row past. Guess who we think of when that happens?

When we were kids, we lived on a housing estate just a couple of minutes from the river, so Boat Race Day was always special. Every family was either a vehement supporter of the light blues of Cambridge or the dark blues of Oxford which seemed quite normal at the time but, thinking back, appears quite odd now. We were all decidedly lower class, with precious little chance of attending any university, let alone Oxbridge. But I clearly remember having a punch up with another kid on the estate because he supported Oxford. Total madness…but in my defence, I was very young at the time.

The family ritual was to watch the race on the telly until it reached Hammersmith Bridge, run to the river to watch the boats go by and then run back to see the finish. You still hear folks say “We had to make our own fun in those days” and I rather think this custom now falls into that deeply enigmatic category.

So that’s how Bri’s death has become inextricably linked to The Boat Race and the thoughts I have of him when the drone cameras look down upon the crews as they zoom past Craven Cottage. The fond memories always win out over the political bewilderment…and, strange as it may seem, I still want Cambridge to win.

For you, Bri. We miss you. (Terry Reeves)

Ten years of ashes floating, reasons to find
Connected thoughts search sensitive mind
Watery echoes continue, grieving combined
Reluctant tidal memories, questions behind

Never to forget you're all part of me

Cambridge beat Oxford, repair some sorrow 
But cannot add smiles to a never tomorrow 
A two to one chance, exciting times borrow 
History growing up, running riverside to follow

Never to forget you're all part of me

Ten years have past left me standing here
No harmony practice, new song to appear
Every heartbeat 4/4 beat counting each year 
Independence not requested, vocal unclear

Never to forget you're all part of me

From Birth to final moments always there
No feeling exchanged or choosing to care
50 years of musical lifetime joined with stare 
Total love for a brother, dreams cannot share

Never to forget you're all part of me
Never to forget you’re all part of me

RELEASE THE ASHES - CRIPPLE CLUB & HANS ALBERS

Kodama (Demo)

Produced for the wonderful https://citiesandmemory.com/ as part of their SOUNDS of Italy project. Original field recording by Giuseppe Calisti. I just turned it into the mess you are now hearing : ) Official arty blurb below

Leaving Sicily is a poetic remembrance, expressed through sound, of my travels across the Island in 2017. For me the Island was a constant  barrage of wonder; both beautiful and terrifying, welcoming and isolating, modern and ancient and familiar yet alien. The piece heavily manipulates samples from the field recording captured at The Falcone Borsellino Aiport to express some of the dichotomies above. Leaving Sicily finishes with the ‘raw’ sound of the crowd of the airport terminal representing the transition from my surreal and personal travel back into the world of normality - just another tourist in the crowd about to return to his normal life.

Leaving Sicily

A cool little tune called "The Icehouse ".  Escape with me to this little jazz club in Minneapolis.

Step inside the frostbitten echo chamber of Three Photons’ latest release, "The Ice House"—a haunting blend of analog soul and spectral blues. This track doesn’t warm you up—it chills you in the best way.

Lyrics

Verse 1
Stella by Starlight
Escaping the real life
Touched by the stardust
She found her real lust
Won't you come on down?

Refrain
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse
Watching it all go down, at the icehouse

Verse 2
Caught in the spotlight
I'm faking the real life
Touched by the starlight
Escaping the real life

Refrain
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse
Watching it all go down, at the icehouse

Verse 3
Stella by Starlight
Escaping the real life
Won't you come on down?

Refrain
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse
Watching it all go down, at the icehouse
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse

Lyrics: Written and performed by Modes About Me "Mark David McClellan"

Another Weed Song (Prod. Eric Godlow Beats)

“This song is inspired by late 90’s US Rock/00’s Pop-Punk and 00’s British Indie Pop. It is about anxiety. Musically it is an attempt to showcase the storm and calm that anxiety can create in daily life. Lyrically it is about wanting to reset emotions and be free from worry and self doubt - to be yourself; a self without anxiety. This is a kind of conceptual art record.” 

A song about anxiety - “Be My Somebody”

Let me take, take what I need to take
Let me think what I need to think, meditate it away
Sometimes the world around me feels like I live in hell 
I treat everyone better than I treat myself

I’m chasing freedom while you are chasing me 

Stay away from me anxiety
Get away from me anxiety
Get outta my head
Get outta my body
Take me back to the start so I can be my somebody
Stay away from me anxiety

Getting caught up inside my head
Can you figure it out? 
Taking the torch away from the world
Goodbye reality
Don’t forget that this will pass 
Be your best friend 
Feelings come and feelings go

We never seem to have some					
Some time for us
And when we do it’s always
Always never much

Let’s go on holiday							
Let’s go and runaway
We can be all alone
Sit on a beach all day
Whiling the time away
And switch of all of our phones

We should escape to somewhere					
Where we are free
Of all things that keep us
Just like empty trees

Let’s go on holiday							
Let’s go and runaway
We can be all alone
Sit on a beach all day
Whiling the time away
And switch of all of our phones

With you								
With you
I just want to be with you
Just two
Us two
It’s time for us to renew

Let’s go on holiday							
Let’s go and runaway
We can be all alone
Sit on a beach all day
Whiling the time away
And switch of all of our phones
 
With you								
With you
I just want to be with you
Just two
Us two
It’s time for us to renew

Although we live together						
Strangers are we
No time for growing flowers
To bloom eternally
Can’t you see
It must be

Let’s go on holiday							
Let’s go and runaway
Let’s go on holiday
Let’s go and runaway
Let’s go on holiday
Let’s go and runaway
Let’s go

Funky With You

Let's Go On Holiday

The Man That Knows Something Knows That He Knows Nothing At All

„a style of Doom blending from destructive energy to a own creative dominance“

Epic Down is a duo from Leipzig, Germany dedicated to the sluggish grooves and lumbering riffs of sludge & doom, started in 2021 by Mitzschi (guitar(s)/bass) and Fabian (drums/vocals).
Influenced by primal doom, drone and stoner, the sound of Epic Down is mainly characterized by solid downtempo grooves and rolling walls of guitars, complemented by slightly melancholic vocals.

With the release of their first EP "Equinox Pt1" and it’s sequel "Equinox Pt2" in 2023, the band stepped into the light of publicity.
After signing to Argonauta Records the band was able to celebrate the release of „days of oblivion“ as their debut album in fall 2024.
