Nice to hear a tongue in cheek track, albeit about serious matters... excellent stuff!

Nice use of The Entertainer as a jumping off and landing place.  Sobering and all too pertinent lyrics for today’s world.

Thanks for providing a chuckle about all this

I love Gom Jabber's stuff. This song holds a lot of meaning that we can pick up on if you try. Try to understand Gom Jabber is a magic man... Musician.

nice track and message. humanity is heading into senility so

Oh yeah, here we go...that's another cool track & typical Gom vibe☺️...funny, as it seem you got inspired and used a phrase of the famous Ragtime song for it, aren't you?..well done, I like it!👍✌️

I've thought about it since your comment on "Aliens, Keep Your Distance" but I hear you have to have the right connections and be a glutton for punishment :P

sad but true..... hope u r having a merry Christmas....

This musical material is very dear to me and it came to me many years ago, in about 2002. I would walk to my bus stop to go to school or walk to the bazar always humming these few very simple chords. They were stuck in my head for quite some years. Strange that at that time I had never considered doing anything with this material. Maybe because I was very much occupied with abstract contemporary conceptual music back then. The older I become the more I appreciate clarity, simplicity and emotion in music rather than complexity and hidden abstract concepts. The time to unfold this material came 20 years after. Thomas Nakas aka @to_mi_nor brought it to life  by creating a beautiful piano part, structure and arrangement. This is our second EP and there are more works to come!

The improvisations are rough, meaning that I recorded them in one take with no corrections or editing and this represents the concept of this EP. Do we have to be perfect at all? Or is it maybe more important to honestly communicate your thoughts, your feelings, regrets, nostalgia?..

Imperfect//Monologs (Intro)

Fading Away

Dreams

when the leaves on the trees turned white
it was the most instagrammable blight
and when a virus jumped across from bats
so many died the most tweetable deaths

now somewhere along the road to decimation
we got so tired of the all-bad news (bad-on-bad news!)
we must be free to bite it if we choose
must be free to headlong into annihilation

we might be going extinct (tinc-tinc-tinct)
but it’s still hard to care about every single reason
it could be something we did
but it’d be so much nicer if it isn’t...

baby, let’s go extinct!
or at least take a selfie from the brink

we’ll never level up, we’ll never not give up
so many of us racing hot to meet their maker
look in my rational eyes, you’ll see me rationalize
it’s not my fault, I vaguely tried then I tried vaguer, and vaguer!
 
now we all, we all long for a simpler explanation
my gut tells me things will sort themselves out (or not)
we must be free to run amuck about
it’s the economy, stupid—our sexiest creation

we’re going extinct (tinc-tinc-tinct)
but it’s still hard to agree with the secular reasons
it could be something we did
but it’d be so much nicer if, be so much nicer if it isn’t...

yeah, we should go extinct (tinct-tinct-tinct)
cause then we won’t have to hear about every little impact
we’re all interlinked
but there is money to be made while saying that we think that

baby let’s go, baby, let’s go extinct!
or at least let’s take a selfie from the brink-brink-brink

[instrumental break]

let's go extinct—
we'll make sure we only do it for reasons we believe in
if it's not at all what we think—
well, at least the final score is kind of even

when the ice caps swelled up the seas
we were psyched to stream it live on our feeds
and when the skies caught on fire, for kicks
we took a lot of really meme-able pics

subscribe and follow, react, comment below, tell us what you think
and let’s go, let us just go extinct!

The music of the crickets on a quiet night is very interesting, especially the rhythm caught my attention. I wanted to try this in music, what would it be like if crickets had instruments?

Seq97 Eee  E Uncertainties and Certainties From  Ars Amandi

Hi everyone,

Quite different from what I've  uploaded up to now.
It all started on a lonely night. Just like that:
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/h34b7_k6ya8
I don't remember though if I started the recordings and composing that same night.
The percussion at the beginning is actually done on the guitar (Classical guitar).
Everything was played and recorded. Except for the rising sounds.
Enjoy
And please comment. Reading your comments is better than a coffee ;).

A collaboration with Reedy - quite a different style from the norm - for us and him! Had a blast working on this one. Check out Reedy's other work here: https://soundcloud.com/user-716607695

LYRICS:

Running on fumes from the empty promises
You leave a trail of wounded from your bullshit policies
We're all subject to a strip-search warrant, identity probe
we got our blood type, colour, indemnity sold
into a government profile in a public upload to the cloud
We're gonna take it down
We're gonna take it down

Super sized French fries
Two-for-one mind control,
You're on a leash
Fear drenched gummy bears
offer up conspiracy and disbelief

Call in the team for a good-old dressing down
Blowing off steam with the peasants in the town
We're all meeting for a witch hunt shaming
and a throwing of stones
Behind the lynch mob clamour you'll be rolling the bones
You picked a hitchhike lover who can pay off your loans with her blood
We're gonna take it down
No, ain't gonna take it now

Take It Down - feat. Reedy
