Let That Shit Go (Demo)

If you are under someone's influence who are you, whose life are you living, whose thoughts are you thinking, whose opinions, beliefs, have you absorbed, are any of them really YOURS?

BE YOURSELF DON'T BE SOMEONE ELSE, live life through your own eyes NOT through someone else's; in the scheme of things what the f_ck do they know, really!

INFLUENCERS AND THE IDIOTS THEY INFLUENCE

I don't spend time thinking about what I create, no formulas, no recipes, no planning, no genre in mind, I just go wherever the first few notes take me, pretty much improvised; I tend to go with the first idea that pops into my head; judge for yourself how that pans out!

I had the very good fortune to connect with Andy H aka “Noobly” a few months ago over music that we mutually admired and we agreed to find a future opportunity to collaborate. This is the result. Noobly’s beautifully rich track, propelled by his soaring guitar work, felt like a kind of call to prayer to my ear. I tried to echo this somewhat in singing the bridge. Lyrically, just for kicks I used the Socratic Method to construct the verses (persuasion through Q&A) so that this song’s meaning becomes self-evident and hopefully more of a personal experience for each listener. Thanks for checking it out!

Prideful Pride

Do you remember the day when pride took you for its own
When a thief stole something precious in you

Do you remember the day when pride took you for its own
When a thief stole something precious in you
Did it happen when all of your friends cut you out
Was your heart set on winning something, but you lost instead
And when you were maimed did the anger in you surge
Can you mark the moment when you became someone else
Is your truth under layers of scar and combat
Are you the new thief, looting joy from everywhere

Prideful pride keeps piling on, on, on
Building your walls, can’t go wrong, wrong, wrong
Finding it hard to get along, along, along
Your pride is killing you, long before you’re gone, gone, gone

And in the end you’ll be left with nothing
A bright light that’s gone too dim
I have been in a prison of my own before, just like you
Until I let the facade fall
And was set free, free

Are things more difficult now that you are going it alone
And do you leave enough room for both your sadness and your anger
Does that wall keep scary things in, and the invaders out
Are you winning this imaginary war you think you’re fighting

Prideful pride keeps piling on, on, on
Building your walls, ’can’t go wrong, wrong, wrong
Finding it hard to get along, along, along
Your pride is killing you, long before you’re gone, gone, gone

Prideful Pride

Flowers.

Written in January 2024.

Published in July 2025.


During the first few months of last year, I was ill with my recurring kidney stone problems.

Fortunately, that passed.

I left some of the compositions I started unfinished, and some sketches were barely started.

This is one of them.

My mother lives in a typical Andalusian house in Seville.

One of the characteristics of these houses is that they usually have a courtyard where there are all kinds of flowering and non-flowering plants.

Obviously, they need to be cared for, watered, fertilized, etc.
My mother loves doing it, and in spring she reaps the rewards of her labor.

I always give my flower icons to the women I follow (I hope I'm not annoying them by doing that), so I thought it was interesting to draw inspiration from all of that to put this together.

This is a collaboration with the very talented Epic Dreamery (Bruce). We completed this last year and posted it on Epic Dreamery's SC page, but I wanted to share it to own page too. It is a song I wish to share, and I hope you like it as much as I do!

I GOT MOXIE, BABY
Lyrics by Andrea Brennan
Music, vocals and production by Epic Dreamery 

 
I grew up in the projects, was just mom and me
Had three dead bolts on the door , but never much to eat

The world taught me too early, that life isn’t always fair
But I never stopped believing, I could build castles in the air
 
'Cause I got moxie, baby . . . feel it deep inside
Like an ocean rolls the tide . . . Moxie, baby . . .
Can't stop these waves that flow right through me
My moment will arrive . . . 'Cause I got moxie, baby

From cruel broken sidewalks, On the wrong side of town
I conquered attitudes and fears, that were holding me down

The day I turned eighteen, I kissed my mom goodbye
She knew I had to dream, And I knew I had to try
 
'Cause I got moxie, baby . . . I feel it deep inside
Like an ocean rolls the tide . . . Moxie, baby . . .
Can't stop these waves that flow right through me
My moment will arrive . . . 'Cause I got moxie . . . baby . . .
For me there is no maybe

Well I Bought a one-way fare
On the poor man's limousine
On my way into the city, where muse’s dare to dream
I know it won’t be easy . . . but I’m ready and prepared
-SOLO- 
'Cause I got moxie, baby . . . I feel it deep inside
Like an ocean rolls the tide . . . Moxie, baby . . .
Can't stop these waves that roll right through me
Like an ocean rolls the tide, my moment will arrive
. . . 'Cause I got moxie, baby

I Got Moxie, Baby

In the early days of the year, my daughter Romane and I have decided to take up the challenge to compose and realize a song together. Here is the result. Isn’t it awesome? 
For her it was mainly the first time singing for a recording. She has no particular skill to do that and she has never taken singing lessons. However, she rose to the challenge with a whole lotta pleasure and love. …you can almost see her smile and laugh when you hear her sing...   
For me it was the very first-time recording vocals. I would like to warmly thank Goff Johnson for his advices about vocals processing/editing (he’s the guy with whom I’ve already delighted to collaborate for “Seems Like It”). I also thank him for his performance of the hamond organ and the ending piano, and for the intro/chorus synth thema. 
I wish you to have a blast listening to the song.

-THE WORLD IS MINE-
1st verse:
Today, the morning sunshine lights my nest
My heart is pounding so loud in my chest
I take the blue sky, I rise up, go for the journey
Can’t stand the slowness. Here we go! Here’s the odyssey
Pre-chorus:
Always trusting my sense, never running around
Looking for the raw gem waiting to be found
1st Chorus:
I’m gonna grab it, I’ll seize it, the world o’mine
Over the hills, ‘cross the seas, the sun will shine
I’ll grab it, I’ll take it, I’ll see the light
I go ahead against the odds, in life I bite
I’ll take it, I’ll grip it, the world is mine
Over the hills, through the plains, the sun will shine
Won't sit around as the world goes by
I never get enough, I kiss sweet home goodbye
2nd verse:
Unchained, I run through the lands straight ahead
Trust me, I’ll catch all the stars tread by tread
Shadows sway around, tears and fears, but I see my lights
I dance with the wind, facing foes in the wide dark nights
Pre-chorus:
Always trusting my sense, never running around
Looking for the raw gem waiting to be found
2nd Chorus:
I’m gonna grab it, I’ll seize it, the world o’mine
Over the hills, ‘cross the seas, the sun will shine
I’ll grab it, I’ll take it, I’ll see the light
I go ahead against the odds, in life I bite
I’ll take it, I’ll grip it, the world is mine
Over the hills, through the plains, the sun will shine
Won't sit around as the world goes by
I never get enough, I kiss my mom goodbye

In order to relate to your music most listeners need to be able to pigeonhole it, if they can’t do this because you create tunes that are unique they'll likely dismiss your creativity, absorbing it years later when other musicians, believing they got there first, stumble on your sound!

No followers, no listeners, by that measurement I’ve failed miserably, however, I have succeeded  in remaining true to authentic creative self, underground in this world, #SixFeetUnderground the next!

These tunes are not fillers, they are seriously funky, but more importantly, they are not samey, each tune has its own identity! Only one way to find out if that boast is a hollow one, and that involves listening to, not just one, but several tunes!
