Lyrics largely written while descending Helvellyn in the English Lake District amidst the buzz of ascending it via the challenging 'Striding Edge'. The music followed as soon as I got back to my guitar. Flanging out the chords on the piano felt a bit 'Lennon' and the arrangement came from there.

The Mountain Song

Original song by Matthew Oldboy Stoddard AKA Social Deception.
Lyrics:

Mr. Wednesday, why don’t you come on down,
Take a load off man, get yourself together,
Mr. Wednesday, saw your face on the tv screen,
You were stoic with that holy streak of mean,
Mr. Wednesday, where did you go off to,
Last we saw you, you had fallen so low,
Mr. Wednesday, don’t give up on your dreams.
You took us from silence to screams.
Mr. Wednesday, all the places you have explored,
All those fancy women you adored,
Mr. Wednesday, all the riches you thoroughly enjoyed,
All that emptiness you employed.
Mr. Wednesday, where did that money all go,
Your schemes only left you with nothing to show,
Mr. Wednesday, time is not our friend,
It only left you bitter in the end,
2X Mr. Wednesday, must we always end up alone,
We can only hope our soul has grown,
Mr. Wednesday, saw your face on the tv screen,
You were stoic with that holy streak of mean….

Down the rabbit hole

Mr. Wednesday

I found this on my harddrive! It's an old collaboration dating from 2006 with a guy named Richard Sistenich (aka Amused) - I met him on the music forum that is BandAmp (NOT BandCamp). This forum is now a relic, sadly, but hey, it's still up and this track can be found on there.

I wanted to share them here for your amusement.

Richard had created the original instrumental part - asked me to do the drums, lyrics and vocals. This is the wonderful result (it was really well received at the time)

Remember, it's old: it's no HD and the production value is so-so.


LYRICS:

to seek
what it is like
to seek
what it feels like

so precious
so couragious

I wish I could say what this moment feels like when I saw you today doing alright

I'm awake now
feeling safe now
watching space between shadows
like the girl with the red rose
in her hair, she is dancing
to the rhythm of answering

alive and awake
in a dream
I always knew
it always came clean
before the end of all things good
let's kiss away the aches forgood

old thoughts of fear don't make a sound
up and down that spiral twice around
wash out the skin from the venom spewed
to twist the insides out it's nothing new

so precious
so couragious
to seek what it's like
to seek what it feels like with you

wish I knew

Arrivée

Reworked mix for the Overland album (https://ffm.to/overland)
and here's a lyric video: https://youtu.be/Bq5LZAaUcb8

This is a 2012 recording of a 1993 track - very early composition which proved pivotal the musical direction I would take. This track is a frequent revisit and I have recorded a later version, but the 2012 version is the rockiest of them all.

Retreated, remixed, remastered it almost sounds as new. Refurbished, if you will. All in 2021 for the release of the Overland album.
The earlier version of this track was already on my profile, but this one has now taken it's place.

lyrics:

fall ye through a wall of brick, could ye be such a heretic
yeah I know in your head you're sick but must ye be such a lunatic
so you say yes I am a freak as I kiss on your skin so bleak
let me dance upon your fire, let me feel your black and dire
and you say you are turning cold - let me see all your cards unfold
show me paths and then I could, don't lose grip now if I would be...

screaming in the haze... feeling little daze...
trapped in a maze... thrown away my face...

jump in front of the three eyed shadow of the night
maybe sing standing in the midst of the wailing tracks of never missed
there you were upon my fire over waves of desire
he told me so - a won't you try her - and I thought he was a liar!
I rather sing instead of talk,
I rather dance instead of walk
gimme gimme till I overflow
rather be high instead of low

screaming in the haze... feeling little daze...
trapped in a maze... thrown away my face...

you think I don't know you... don't I know you?

Lyrics (c) Neli CoKo:
1) 
When you´re tired 
But get no sleep
When you´re hungry
Nothing to eat
When there´s no ground
Under your feet
When you listen
But don´t hear the beat
Be strong
Walk on
The road is long
2)
Raise your head
Stretch your spine
Trust yourself
You´ll be fine
Find your pride
Take your time
Don´t give up 
You still shine
Be strong
Walk on
The road is long
3)
There´s a long road
Ahead
Save your power
Fight off the dread
Play it cool, Guy
Don´t get mad
Cause there´s a future
Inside your heart and head
Be strong
Walk on
The road is long

Walk On

The always awesome Bawl Slant (https://soundcloud.com/bawl-slant) sent me over a track to do some vocals for. Not really sure where the theme came from🤣 We decided to put it out on my page enjoy and behave 😉

Bite Me!! (with The Bawl Slant)

MIX-MASTER: WOODS STUDIO

From where I was
to where I am
the distance seems immense
I can’t paddle back - 
They built a dam
And the rapids get intense
To try would not make sense

A summer night
At party’s end
You asked if you could stay
But someone else there overheard
And you went on your way
I dreamt of that today

Yes once again
I’m swimming in a dream
Just wade on in
I will wait for you midstream

The tide goes out
As it came in
Sure of what to do
If only I could say the same
I’d find my way back to you
Let the moonlight pull me through

Midstream

A remix of our 2020 single to reflect the situation as of 2021.

Lyrics:
I AM WITHIN YOUR EVERY DEED
I DICTATE YOUR EVERY NEED
AND I NEED YOU TO
DESTROY
YOURSELF

FIRST I BEGIN WITH YOUR MIND
SLIP OFF INTO THE EDGE OF TIME
NEVER FIND YOUR WAY BACK AGAIN
THIS IS WHAT IT'S LIKE IN A DAMAGED BRAIN

NEXT I WORK MY WAY INTO YOUR DREAMS
UNTIL YOU THINK THAT NOTHING'S 
WHAT IT SEEMS
FILL YOU WITH A SENSE OF UTTER DREAD
MAKE YOU WISH YOU WERE
AWAKE INSTEAD

BUT WHEN YOU'RE AWAKE 
YOUR MIND DOES RACE
RACES TO RETRIEVE THE
MEMORIES I ERASE
AND EVEN AS YOU RECOVER
YOUR IDENTITY
I MAKE YOU DOUBT EVERYTHING
YOU SEE

I AM WITHIN YOUR EVERY DEED
I DICTATE YOUR EVERY NEED
AND I NEED YOU TO
DESTROY
YOURSELF

DESTROY THE EGO
IT'S A SELFISH THING
THINK OF ALL THE GRIEF
IT CAN BRING
LISTEN NOW AND HEAR IT SING
LISTEN 
BECAUSE EGO IS THE KING

I AM WITHIN YOUR EVERY DEED
I DICTATE YOUR EVERY NEED
AND I NEED YOU TO
DESTROY
YOURSELF

DESTROY
YOURSELF

DESTROY
YOURSELF

Destroy Yourself - Paul Banham X Mizero

As there is Science Fiction, there is also Music Fiction and I wanted to pay homage to the excellent Science Fiction cartoonists and especially to the one who inspired me the most: Philippe Druillet
Superb science-fiction comic book with Philippe Druillet who has a fantastic, delirious, violent drawing, but which shows us the permanent violence since the night of times!
Men have always been "ugly" but the difference is that the Earth before was undeniably more beautiful. Thank you for listening!

KISSING ASS sounds too much like CHRISTMAS to pass up the opportunity of a little satire :)

KISSING ASS FOR CHRISTMAS

In the WRONG PLACE at THE WRONG TIME with THE WRONG MINDSET, apparently making THE #WRONG #MUSIC, but it feels #RIGHT to ME!

Highly unlikely more than one of my tunes will ever be heard by more than a handful of listeners, so just for the record here is an incomplete list of artists my music has been compared to by other musicians, depending on which tunes they heard, StevenVellou (Gothic Funk)

>
Don't take sides and I'll respect you for it; take sides and I'll treat you with the same contempt I treat anyone with a mob mentality, because mob mentality invariantly betrays an underlying intolerant right-wing mentality!
>
#SUPPORT gathers #MOMENTUM when #RECIPROCATED!
>
My tunes are ten times better than you might imagine!
>
A lack of listens proves nothing, other than the fact that no one is finding your tunes; it does not prove, as some believe, that your tunes must be crap, so don’t ever take such a ridiculous notion on board—on an internet FLOODED with music no listens rarely has anything to do with the quality of your music, your creative talent, is almost always down to the fact that the right audience can’t find your music, because finding it is now as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack!
>
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE, EVERYTHING FOR SOMEONE!
>
For diversity and consistency, I am not hesitant in saying my Soundcloud pages house the most inventive creations on here. There are others making fabulous tunes, but no one is more prolific while maintaining a high standard of pole to pole invention, and that applies to the lyrics too. I won't escape obscurity and oblivion, but that proves nothing, the internet is way, way, WAY overcrowded with unsigned music, way too much mediocre stuff, which obscure anything exceptional out there; the wood hidden away behind lots and lots and LOTS of trees, and no one has the time to look for needles in haystacks, to find a diamond in the rough, it's just way too big a task, not humanely possible!

INVENTIVE, AUTHENTIC, DIVERSE MUSIC, INVENTIVE, AUTHENTIC, IMAGINATIVE LYRICS, but those are the last things the vast majority of listeners are looking for these days!
>
Me, I'm awestruck by musicians who can't be pigeonholed, who don't conform to any borders, who don't think about which direction each new creation will take, they just go wherever that creativity takes them; pure, on the fly, innovation, imperfect but 100% authentic, as far a way from manufactured, recipe book, regurgitation, as it is possible to get, totally unforced, inspirational and way, way, WAY outside the box! There ought to be a place for such creativity, there was at one time, but a mercenary music industry put an end to that, leaving us with a situation where those who deserve the most adoration for the talents receive the least!
>
Will this ever change, will a yearning for TRUE underground, creativity unique to the individual, ever return, or has the spoon-feeding gone to far this time, is its grip so vicelike nothing can break it!
>
I make #INVISIBLE music, perhaps it feels that way to you too!
#Overlooked, #Underrated, Dismissed Without A Listen!
>
When Soundclouders follow me or click like without leaving feedback, what is it they are hoping for? That I come listen to their tunes and heap praise on them, what? I mean really, what is the point of following someone, what is the point of liking one of their tunes, if you don't actual think they are deserving of feedback, if you don't think the tunes are as good as what you do???

EXPLODING THE MYTH THAT UNSIGNED IS UNSIGNED BECAUSE IT’S INFERIOR TO SIGNED MUSIC!

>
UNTIL this MYTH is blown out of the water we don’t have a cat in hells chance of breaking through. #TheMyth  is the BIGGEST obstacle that stands in our way, it is the FIRST hurdle we must get over, it is the message that should be going #VIRAL, it’s down to each & every one of you to make that happen!
>
#ExplodeTheMyth
>
Listening to just one of my tunes tells you nothing about my creative approach, listening to ten of my tunes will still tell you very little, listen to a hundred of my tunes and the penny will start to drop, but it's only after hearing 500+ of my creations and collaborations that your eyes will widen in amazement! 
However, if you don't have unlimited eclectic taste none of that applies, and the reality is, who, in this world, is going to listen to every tune I've created, no one--if even one tune is heard from beginning to end it's a minor miracle, because sadly, there is a belief that unsigned means inferior, but I've heard enough tunes by the rest of you guys to know that's a myth, that's bullshit, we create some of the most inventive, authentic, imaginative tunes out there!
Give me unsigned, independent and underground music over signed, safe, predictable, recipe book, music any day of the week!
>
I MAKE TUNES NO ONE WILL EVER LISTEN TO!
>
Some musicians & music fans don’t want to hear music from the past because they would have to acknowledge IT’S ALL BEEN DONE BEFORE!
>
Finally come to terms with the fact that I'm PLAYING TO AN AUDIENCE OF ONE, and even I have to FORCE myself to listen!!!
>
My music and lyrics are all about different, but if no one listens no one will EVER know! 
#StevenVellou

I CREATE TUNES ON THE FLY; NO FORMULA, NO PLAN, NO DIRECTION; THEY JUST HAPPEN--I'M IGNORANT OF THE RULES INVOLVED IN THE MUSIC MAKING PROCESS, SO I'M NOT BOXED IN BY THEM, WHICH IS WHY THEY ARE SO VARIED AND UNPREDICTABLE!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Meaningful yet tongue-in-cheek tunes that can’t be #PIGEONHOLED!
Great production ISN'T my forte, accomplished musicianship ISN'T my forte but #UndergroundInvention, #InfiniteDimensions & LYRICS are!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Now I don't personally believe I'm in the same league as #Bowie, other than my lyrics, more often than not, making more sense, but I do think I share his ability to adapt to different genres, and his endless, diverse, creativity, just not quite on the same level.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I'm not proficient/accomplished on instruments, & I have other musical limitations, but most genres come natural to me, and I much prefer having that unforced ability to being highly accomplished on instruments, highly polished on production, or having the perfect voice!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
If I didn't feel I had my own approach, if my music was easy to pigeonhole, I would have quit music a long time ago!
Never been about fame & fortune, just about pushing the boundaries without actually intending to push the boundaries; creativity that's second nature not formula! 
Yes, I want to reach an audience but making money from my music means nothing to me!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
NOT saying I’m THE MOST #talented musician on music promotion sites but I will say I’m one of the most #UNDERRATED! Even so, I would much rather be underrated than overrated!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
