G-Queen of Florence

Is anyone still out there?
Well hello there if you are taking some of your valuable time to read this! As the lyrics to this (probably)final song say, its been a long while……
The last time I checked into Soundcloud was maybe last December, wow…. 
I packed up for a holiday in Hawaii, ran the Honolulu Marathon, watched a volcano erupt, cast my dog’s ashes into a lava field and drank a tropical island's worth of cocktails while watching the sunset with my wife. And then returned a few weeks later decidedly unenthused about the Cat and my collaborator.
Gina had been making noises about returning to an on again / off again musical partner. That wasn’t unexpected and was actually a bit of a relief as I hadn’t been enjoying this for a while. Our last few songs had been tortuous to finish, including this one which was finally finished I think way back in October 2022.
Cat Came Back was always a lot like an arranged marriage - nothing at all in common but we kind of made it work 3 minutes at a time. But by late last year, it had become very hard work. And as you fellow Soundclouders know, outside of personal satisfaction, the rewards for all of that hard work are not very large. So, if the personal satisfaction is gone, there’s not a lot left to motivate oneself. 
In addition to that, there were a few rather large elephants in the room regarding my collaborator that I won't go into but nevertheless constantly weighed very heavily on my mind throughout our time together and I was finding these increasingly difficult to continue to ignore for the sake of making music together.
So anyway, when I returned a perhaps brief hiatus accidentally turned into this - silence for what, 7-8 months? Haven’t picked up an instrument in all that time and they currently sit in my garage gathering dust. Took up Chess, what a rabbit hole that is! Continued running. Listening as always to a lot of old jazz. Continued seemingly never ending renovations to my house. Spent a lot of time with my lifelong friend, William Styron’s Black Dog, as a matter of fact he's here sitting right by my side now. 
So what now? I sat down a few days back and listened to a few things that were unfinished as of late last year. Maybe its time to start again. Find a new collaborator or two? Anyone know anyone who might be a match?
In the meantime I’ll dip my toe in and check out what some of my favourite Soundclouders have been up to while I was away. I'm sure I've missed out on some really great stuff.

I once reconstructed Mozawa's 'Inter-Cosmic Resonance,' but I felt that the original essence, particularly the 'Cosmic' aspect, wasn't fully captured. So, I took on the challenge of reconstruction once again. This time, with the help of SeaShea on guitar, we were able to emphasize the inherent cosmic theme even more effectively. Collaborating with amazing friends like this brings me great joy. I hope you also enjoy this track as much as we do.

This is a collaboration with mozawa_*on.soundcloud.com/n3oEo on Concept and basic tracks and SeaShea on.soundcloud.com/CnDF4 on guitars.
The original song by mozawa_* is available at the following link. https://on.soundcloud.com/9cGoZ
Composition and Sampling collage and Reformed by Synline
Featured on the my album "Objects"https://on.soundcloud.com/39gBR

Ceasefire in Gaza

--------------------

With the war song of a newly hatched queen bee

------

Yard after yard
Law shows its fangs
King's sentences
always to blow Powerless
Powerless
your cage, blessed,
like your heart
tortured by the secret genocide
that you can not even whisper
this secret Genocide
into the desert
this secret genocide
into the desert
of your bleeding eyes
The secret Genocide of all your will and dreams.
The secret Genocide
into the desert now
like into your life.

Secret Genocide - Pythyrsus

Here's a collaboration I did with GBailey (@gbailey) over on Bandlab on this original composition of his. G laid down a fabulous guitar track, and I added piano, organ, bass, and percussion. Enjoy the ride to Green Mountain!
