You and I (DEMO)

"Warning Signs" is a very important piece for me. It’s a song about willful ignorance, doubt, and fear of commitment. I hope you relate (but not too much!)

This track was hard work but it was a joy. Arie Van Der Poel and I worked on it for over 60 days. Arie really pushed me to get this track to where it is, he was ruthless with my vocal production and even made me rewrite the original middle 8 the day before the rehearsals.

As usual, I was blessed to work with some incredible musicians; Karme Caruso, Junior Kirton, Jack Gillen, Drew Campbell and Ben Jones. Ben also added his touch to the production, which really elevated the track - it was crazy to watch him work.

After the song comes out, there'll be a few more things for you to see, including a music video and an acoustic version. Thanks for being on this journey with me, and I genuinely hope you enjoy the music.

Lyrics:

The sun slowly rises,
You’ll open your eyes,
I’ll be the first thing you see.
Through rain and cold snow,
When all others go,
You’ll always be waking by me.
I’ll be the first thing you see.

Holding you tight as day turns to night,
I’ll be the first thing you see.
Falling asleep as our lips softly meet,
You’ll always be sleeping by me,
I’ll be the first thing you see.

As I kiss your tired shoulder,
While we spill our minds again.
Over our future growing older,
Not if, but when.

Our cinema minds have pictures inside,
In colours that we’ve never seen.
Geometry in bold, what a thing to behold,
We’ll wake from impossible dreams,
And I’ll be the first thing you see.

As I kiss your tired shoulder,
While we spill our minds again,
Over our future growing older,
Not if, but when.

The First Thing You See

I had lots to say about the way of the world.

Lyrics

At first i wanted to write a tune
About being in the club in my dancing shoes
Raving so late we don't see the moon
Then are thought to myself nar there a Kupes
And then a wanted to write a song 
About being in the club and making love
We've been looking for the love for far too long 
All i'm seeing's love loss where's the love gone

I try smiling but my lips speak
the sorrow that my eyes see
why are they still  killin us off 
I don't see him silver lining 
in all my brothers dying 
why are the still spillin our blood
 I got a son he's only five 
And his presence gives me life
but the futures so F Kd up
I've been looking for an island
Where we can live the life 
and be free from money and gods 
I've seen kids with dreams and low self-esteem 
looking to the stars that they're out of reach 
We send them to institutes' where they teach
 have a plan to fall back on 
dreams they don't happen 
I see people with babies, It's kinda crazy
 complaining about how they're struggling daily
But shadin their neighbors who are just happy
Being in a bomb free country
Changin their yutes nappy
I struggle to begin to 
But I must get into
the truth about handling drugs
Every gift from mother nature
Is great in moderation
Every flower was formed from a bud
Man can prescribe you
Drugs if they charge you
But they are just doing their job
Do what they can to save you
We'll at least they claim to
But who created bombs and God's
  
Killin Killin, we're living livin
Our lives in a cage no prison prison 
Our minds they decay if we don't listen
Listen to your mind and not the system

Either run the day or the day runs you
You can live today how ever you choose
You can't have a bad day with a good attitude
With a bad attitude you'll have a bad day too 
If ya wanna win wanna win then listen up
Visualise the green when they tell you to stop 
Your mind is unique it sees things that are lost
So set your soul free and be your own God 
It's so hard to hear when darkness clouds your hearin
All I hear is screaming kids
They're crying for attention from anyone who'll listen 
But their words are stood under miss
Begging for some answers but it's so hard to answer
When you don't know what the answer is
Searchin with no light just looking for some guidance
but all they get is bombs and bullets 
Aint it crazy how they pollute our sky's
then charge us to use a gift for most high
Then advertise drinks that are chemically designed to lead us to crash and then reapply
they tell us that the sun causes cancer 
Ummm i don't think that's the answer 
The one that direct us they want us to be lost
 So yhey scare us with their bombs & god's

Killin Killin, we're living livin
Our lives in a cage no prison prison 
Our minds they decay if we don't listen
Listen to your mind and not the system

Love Is Blind

Love Is Blind (Unplugged)

It's been a while since I've done any recording.  A long while...
I dug out my computer and set up my mics and had a little go to see if I could.
Here's a version of one of my favourite Stevie Wonder tunes.  I play this one regularly with my band, so I thought it would be a good one to warm up on.

I laid a guitar track down with a click, and built upon it.  Using only one mic in total (Chameleon Labs Model TS-1L).

The instrumentation is as follows...

2 nylon guitars
1 semi acoustic jazz guitar
Bass guitar
Brushes
Snare drum (side click)
Lead Vocal

Enjoy, 
all the best,

Alastair
