Once Upon A Void

It Never Goes Away

(Don't Ever) Let Me Do That

A new Excorde song.   Please also visit https://soundcloud.com/jimenaarroyo/it-never-goes-away-excorde-jimena-jonnie-new-single

A portion of a bridge idea for a very mellow idea acoustic guitar I was working reinvented itself into the trance-like verse for this very hard rock song.  You just never know what might happen when you allow music to go where it will.  I presented this idea to Jimena, multiple time signatures and all, for collaboration.  She never flinched, and ever so brilliantly constructed her vocal parts to anchor this with a cohesive 4/4 time throughout.  This resulted in a cascading effect throughout the song which presents delightful surprises and is so totally cool.  And her singing is amazingly powerful and tight, nothing less than perfect for this piece.
Thanks for working on yet another project with me, Jimena.  Your ideas are truly an unlimited resource.

On and on
It never goes away (x4)
I try to shake it off
I try to slip away
I’d gladly trade it off
For severe deprivation
I want it yet I don’t
I need to just cool off
To resist the temptation
Chorus:
Oh oh - Your face is everywhere
Oh no - Sometimes life’s so unfair
Oh oh - Now love is in the air
Oh no - I don’t want one more torrid affair
No… No…
On and on
It never goes away (x2)
I banish every thought
That lingers in my head
And yet I’m so distraught
At my lack of dedication
I want you but I know
It’s lethal to move on
With this toxic fixation
Oh oh - Your face is everywhere
Oh no - Sometimes life’s so unfair
Oh oh - Now love is in the air
Oh no - I don’t want one more torrid affair 
Oh no!
I’ll tell you what
If you insist
Let’s just go on
I can’t resist this
But you should know (but you should know)
With just one kiss (with just one kiss)
You’ll fall in love
You will have missed this
Nah nah nah nah nah
On and on
It never goes away (x4)
Oh no – it never goes away
No – It doesn’t seem to end
No, it never goes away
Oh oh - Your face is everywhere
Oh no - Sometimes life’s so unfair
Oh oh - Now love is in the air
Oh no - Here comes one more torrid affair
I’ll tell you what
If you insist
Let’s just go on
I can’t resist this
But you should know (but you should know)
With just one kiss (with just one kiss)
You’ll fall in love
You will have missed this
Nooooo…
Oh oh oh oh..

It never goes away

It Never Goes Away ~ (Excorde) NEW MIX 1/19/2020

Little Punkinhead

What an incredible experience it has been to work on this song! Mike's talent is out of this world, so I feel thrilled that he wanted to collaborate on this track with me. Please, take a moment to visit his page and find other terrific collaborations and instrumentals at @https://soundcloud.com/user-192027883

If you're not acquainted with the term, in Buddhism, "Samsara" is often defined as the endless cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. Or, you may understand it as the world of suffering and dissatisfaction, the opposite of "Nirvana," which is the condition of being freed from suffering and the cycle of rebirth.

These are the lyrics:

Ruthless, bloodthirsty
That’s who you are
You show no mercy
When you are set to harm

Hatred courses through your veins
You’re never satisfied
You think you own the universe
But it’s just your paranoia realm
You’re the rightful King of Samsara

I don’t believe
In an eye for an eye
But turning the other cheek
Is just as unwise

But I won’t seek revenge 
Or retributions of any kind
I’ll leave it up to your own karma 
And let fate decide
How to whip the King of Samsara

Guitar solo

If you hold on to rancor,
You’ll just destroy yourself
It’ll be your downfall,
So please, be my guest.

I heal faster than you think so guess who now is banished
All the pain you’ve caused won’t go unpunished
Cause I’m the rightful Queen of Nirvana

You’re just doomed to your karma
I’ll just sit here and watch hate pierce your armor

What comes around just goes around
Cause life’s a boomerang 
What comes around just goes around
What comes around just goes around

The spite you breathe makes ripples on the sea
And I feel sorry, what you give you shall receive

What comes around just goes around You’re just doomed to your karma
Cause life’s a boomerang - I’ll just sit here 
What comes around just goes around
and watch hate pierce your armor

What comes around just goes around
Cause life’s a boomerang 
What comes around just goes around

You’re the rightful King of Samsara – Yeah!

King of Samsara (Jimena & The 3 M Group)

Jimena initiated this song idea with a melody/progression idea a couple of months back.  Like most other collabs we've done, we bounced ideas back and forth via SoundCloud prototype tracks and just let it grow organically.  At first, we had only a somewhat reggae/ska feel going with the verse, but then we  stumbled upon a useful chip-tune type of oscillation setting that was catchy, flexible and begged to be rocked.  Suddenly the complexion of the song took an unexpected turn into some real hard funk rock and we knew that we were back on track again with another morphing-character Excorde song.  We are quite please with the results, especially with the addition of fine lead guitar work from our friend https://soundcloud.com/dairv-dubbleyew for the finishing touch.  Please check out his page for some fine examples of creative playing and songwriting.

And be sure to visit https://soundcloud.com/jimenaarroyo to read her highly imaginative lyrics for this song.  Don't forget to leave her a comment and a like on her track... it's like giving a tip but a hundred times better! :)

Thanks endlessly to both Jimena and Dairv for their awesome musical powers!  You two rock!

Excorde - Star-crossed

We are Excorde, a multi-genre resourced rock band with founding members Jimena Arroyo, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Jonnie Cook, from Chicago, USA. We met on SoundCloud and have been writing songs together for a few years now.  We strongly feel that our sound and compositional chemistry stands out from the mainstream, honing innovative musical turns in recognizable ways to gratify our listeners' need to discover something new and remember it well.


Musically, Excorde's songs feature a very broad yet cohesive influence and fusion of the best elements of 80's and 90’s rock genres, from adult-oriented, classic, alternative, indie, progressive, alt. country, pop, metal, to the most dominant element of all: Excorde's truly original sound. 

Lyrically, expect to find thoughtful and deeply moving phrasings about experiences in love and life.  

Jimena’s emotional voice combined with Jonnie’s distinctive instrumental constructions will transport you to another dimension where catchy choruses, killer guitar riffs, and meaningful lyrics are imbued throughout the listening experience with Excorde.  The spectrum from deeply intimate to powerfully epic is thoroughly explored, captured and rendered, sometimes within the same song.

Having utilized a wide variety of rock genres, styles, nuances and ideas, they demonstrate a cohesive and distinctive identity of their very own.  They feel that, within their music, you will identify with the best of familiar components of these genres, blended seamlessly with a real plethora of new ideas and originality.  

Thank you for listening to our music, we really do appreciate your support!
