Gucken + Schwitzen

Modern Artists like Leon Bridges and Son Little marry hip hop or RnB rhythms often to acoustic based songs. Its an opportunity to blend elements that you love from 2 generations of music into one song - some lyrical bite, sweetened by 60s vocal harmonies.


FAKING IRONY

I see your troubles start from within
And she is prickling cause you’re so wooden
Look at her sparkle like the lemon
Floating on her pour of bubbly gin

Life is serious but only at certain times of day
Where’s the gazelle leap to release your mind to play

It’s a hard road when you take everything literally
If only you could take a course in faking irony
But here you are your face is pinched and spidery
If only you could take a course in faking irony

For you gravity and time operate differently
You’re drowning in the history of epiphany
Will you ever get to feel for the other side
Letting go that crippling brainy ultra-pride

She needs a belly laugh that drops her to the ground
Nothing sexy ‘bout your analysing head up in the clouds

It’s a hard road . . . faking irony

Your birth blueprint and childhood pricked you like a thorn
But your conscience can’t be faulted and you’re always doing good
You probably can’t be changed and that’s an awful thought
Cause things I’m advocating - they probably can’t be taught

She needs a belly laugh that drops her to the ground
Nothing sexy ‘bout your analysing head up in the clouds

It’s a hard road . . . faking irony

FAKING IRONY

This was originally presented as a Punk/Rock kind of a feel for the Electives' but thls first effort had a more Reggae feel to lt which l quite like, so lt has made lt lnto the Anthology series, Rough and Raw as lt ls 😊

An outtake  from lyrics written for "The Eclective Collective" was found lurking ln my hard-drive that had been inexplicably combined with a classic Smokey Robinson R&B Favorite--


Naked Shoulders-by jeff gard!ner

(Refrain from) You Really got a hold on me- by Smokey Robinson, originally
performed by the Miracles   :):)

Lyrics

Naked Shoulders

l like the way the sun lights up
the naked shoulders of the Early morning
ln the Desert where we met-
ln the shack down by the muddy River
where you said you waited
while l rambled on about the time of
Youth and Sex and Beauty-
When the Real Revolution was the Music-

Slitting quietly and thinking
while the melancholy has lt's moment
letting longing linger longer than lt should

Took a little tumble ln the Bumble
when l got older
always just a little lucky
ln the middle of disaster
no longer sure lf l'm the spell or l'm the caster
only knowing that my feet are made of plaster-

Even though lt's getting late, even though lt's getting late
l'm still standing at the gate
hoping for a little bite hoping for a little taste hoping for a little slice of Nlrvana Nlrvana-

Verse 2

You know lt's harder than lt looks
even though l read some books
l'm ln love with my Delusion, Naked and inviting
lt whispers sweetly ln my head and says
You're gonna live Forever, even though l'm almost dead-

Everything that came before
comes knocking at the back-stage door
demanding parts ln the production of the play-

What makes you think you have a choice?
The Director Sald
you don't have to memorize the dialogue
the script ls ln your Head--

Anthology Act V       (Smokey Robinson)

narration: the history of voice recreation and vocoding  is not only shrouded in the cold-war kind of truth but also a token of man's technological preoccupation with mirrors

poem / copyright jo richter:

time has slipped below the dial  
into an interstitial zone -
an abyss marking mass‘ modal 
iterations, as interference-prone 

as any mental skill held in a vial 
made of human flesh and bone -
meta-breathing arbitrary model 
citizens, grouped in groups and cloned alone

Call from Space

I found this song when I was looking through old songs I made on Garageband. I composed this in 2016. Maybe I'll make an updated version of this one day?

The Moonshine of my Soul

I'm a baritone sax player & composer in a contemporary jazz genre from Cologne, Germany (and play clarinet and flute, and the other saxes as well). All woodwind parts on these tracks are played by me (multitrack rec.), all other instruments by virtousi virtuali (with three or four exceptions). All arrangements and by far most compositions are by me.
I very much appreciate every kind of collaboration.
