Ahab

Westworld

Slagle Rock - guitar, vocals / Sue - vocals/ Rob Zelinsky - guitar, bass, keys, production

She was learning from her mother
The tricks of the trade
To be a fortune teller
And how to get paid

She was studying the tea leaves
Playing Tarot Cards
Quoting magic verses
Of witches and bards

I wasn’t superstitious 
So I let her work on me
Said, When you look into tomorrow
What do you see?

She said tomorrow is a question
I’m hoping to get right
Then she took my hand gently
And said look into the light

When the Black Cat
Crossed my path
Spat three times
Who knows
How luck will go
To or fro
Just waiting for a sign

Broken mirror
Oh dear
Seven years of hard times
The die is cast
In broken glass
Couldn’t ask for a clearer sign

I found a four-leaf clover
And I got a rabbit’s foot
Threw salt over my shoulder
Like she said I should

I made her an offer
A future she might like
An opal from Las Vegas
I bought at sacrifice

I slipped it on her finger
And looked her in the eye
Said I want to be your lover
She said, That’s no surprise

She read it in the dharma
And in my credit score
She said you got good karma
But you could use some more

When the Black Cat
Crossed my path
Spat three times
Who knows
How love will go
To or fro
Lady Luck is mine

Black Cat (Collaboration with Zelinsky Studios)

under your hammer
i forge my heart out of steel
but when it all comes to pass
we are all made of glass

i was light and
i was here to
always warm and
accommodate you
but here shattered and cold
hammered into the dark
i finally understand
why it's so easy to hate you

the first hello
a sudden goodbye
that final word
the saddest sound ever heard

i was light and
i was here to
always warm and
accommodate you
but here shattered and cold
hammered into the dark
i finally understand
why it's so easy to hate you

these permanent marks
battle-scars we all earned
will never remind us
of any lessons we've learned

i was light and
i was here to
always warm and
accommodate you
but here shattered and cold
hammered into the dark
i finally understand
why it's so easy to hate you

Easy to Hate You

easy to hate you

At the very beginning, there was nothing.
And then! You will hear life blossom in this immensity, these heartbeats that launch the cycle of possible life in the universe.
And then the big bang. that resonates again and again...

Made with MOOG Modular / Multi-tracks
 It's a hell of a piece and doing it on a MOOG Modular V (even in software version and without a "ready-made" sample) is a fantastic adventure and a hell of a job (first draft in 2007 and release in 2019), but I'm happy about it and if it pleases others... it's even better.

Creation Of The Universe

Angel eyes, Angel eyes
I'm the man that's followed you around
Caroline, Angel eyes
You look so much better now your bound

Paid the price, paid the price
Your angel looks and beauty caught my eye
Your angels eyes, angel eyes
I don't intend to hurt you but I might

Paid the price Caroline
You look so much better now your bound
Angel eyes, angel eyes
I'm the man that's followed you around

Perplexing Patternity is the result of this stormy year. Kind of a purging or clean up. Lot's of hard and weird stuff happening. Trying to manage through it and find some kind of peace amidst all the craziness. Kind of old school electronic. Wanting to escape to childhood nostalgia, but maybe incorporate this hectic all over feeling and the simultaneous search for peace of mind in it. Hope it's something you'd enjoy to listen. For me it was kind of a struggle and the my feeling about whole project is kind of confused, but sometimes you just got to see it trough, I think.
