Great job with the bird sounds. This is a nice track!

Thanks guys for the encouraging comments.

I think this is my favorite. It evokes such a beautiful reverence for nature. Very well done!

My third entry for the Smithsonian competition.

Sound from Naturesongs: Black-faced solitaire (Myadestes 
Sound from Xeno-canto: Bay Wren (Cantorchilus nigricapillus) 
Sounds from Singing Insects of North America: Japanese Burrowing Cricket (Velarifictorus micado) 

I wasn't planning on another entry but it just crept up on me this morning.

Here is the official music video for "Earth Child":

Earth Child
I am my own medicine
the poison is me
but I am not bound
by my word
for the sky is me
as well as the scent
from a wild flower
when you see me
I am also the mountain
you cannot move
to know my strength
is happiness
in the elements of earth
to know I am the still
water flowing
is peace
I am calm

Words of wisdom.

Meditation on Hope When We Are Out of Time

Lady of Fire Original Music and Poetry

(vintage)Omnichord- Tanisha
Vocals-Tanisha

Remember Me

Inside I am a 
raging inferno

no one sees it

I fool them with
My undercover
Breath

I could be satiated by
this raining madness

Remember me

the woman who
speaks in
fragments of 
the moon

showing mercy
with the tongue of 
ancient reeds

Water meeting fire
in my throat

Remember Me

IN A DOORWAY
IN THE SHADOWS
AS THE RAIN MUTES
THE NEON SIGNS


HANDS IN POCKETS
OF A SLICKER
MIDNIGHT STRAGGLERS
MEANDER BY

HOLLOW PROMISE
REMINISENCE
LIKE AN ARCING
ELECTRIC LINE

4:00 IN THE MORNIN’
SHE’S AT THE AFTERPARTY
NO ONE IS WARNIN’
SHE SHOULDN’T LEAVE ALONE, NO…

EVERLASTING
I DON’T THINK SO
EVERY BARGAIN
WILL BE BETRAYED

JESUS TOLD ME
I AM SPECIAL
CLOCK IS TICKING
IT’S JUDGEMENT DAY

FADE TO BLACK
SHE’S NOT COMING BACK

FADE TO BLACK
A FRESH MANIAC

Thanks to Janine Levinson, Cheesemont Paisley-Paisley, and Wheelwright for consultations various.

solstice solitaire

Only three years late, party long finished. I came across this on my old hard drive and thought it right to post it now. One of many I intended to finish but have left the chisel marks visible

Original here https://soundcloud.com/learningtoplay/out-there-somewhere and much more to enjoy 

Fantastic experimental guitar noises and sounds form the backcloth. Beats from lincolnproduction. Vocals and additional guitars by me.

Out There Somewhere - Learningtoplay With Nicholas Ridiculous

Slingshot Round Saturn - free DL

Having benefitted from many generous SC artists' Open Collaborations in the past, I have decided to upload my own.

Please feel free to add anything you like. If you'd like me to comment and repost, please send me a DM and I'll oblige as soon as I can. Sorry I won't be able to send individual stems.

It is a simple guitar, bass and drums turnaround, repeated three times. Complicate it as much as you'd like, or just use it to jam to as you please

Be good

hibernating
the days grow dark
suffocating
so pull your boots on
walk out the door

frozen ridge line
and silver moon
distant tree line
the sleeping forest
is under snow

crystal flakes will crunch underfoot
icicles agleam
father winter will tread by your side
to the frosted stream

calculating
the solstice tide
enervating
procrastinating
walk out the door

frigid meadow
in moonlight glaze
dormant willow
is waiting naked
for your embrace

crystal flakes will crunch underfoot
icicles agleam
father winter will tread by your side
to the frosted stream
________________________________________________________________

Michael and I will be introducing two new songs in roughly a month, and at that time the Fictive Sisters album "Immaculate Distraction" will be available on Bandcamp. We will let you know when and provide a link. Thanks always for your listening!
