i've got two lonely shadows
that are fit to kill
if one of them does not get me
the other has the will...
prayers for the high holy one.

Two Shadows

From the 2023 album Coffee Stained Attendance Sheet Scotch Taped To A Glass Door


I’m a discipline man, not a medicine man, and I don’t even care, someone warn her

‘Cause she’s a typical man, only lives off the land 

‘Cause she’s reason to think war’s beneath her


Samadhi Samadhi

Samadhi Samadhi

Seven 

Mitakuye Oyas’in

Mitakuye Oyas’in

Heaven


It’s a sensible plan, not some sugary jam

Philosophically speaking it’s genius

“Cause we’re a principled clan

Such a reputable brand

And there’s nothing we sell so you’ll love us


Perfect enough

Not to climb but just bounce


Risk it all

Make that call


I’m a discipline man, no metaphysical man, and she don’t even care someone warned me

She’s a typical man

Only lives off the land

‘Cause she’s reason to think wars beneath her


Easy enough 

Not to program but play


Age like you shine

Right in time

Electrical Storm II (Electrometis, J.J. Terrell and Neno J.)

Every year it seem like things are getting worse
Pretty soon we’ll all have to escape to the metaverse
With a pair of virtual reality goggles strapped on your head
You won’t even realize that all the plants and animals are actually dead

You can suit up in your avatar and always try to look your best
You can give yourself big muscles even if you have a puny chest
You can live like a cro magnon in a dark and dirty cave
You don’t have to wear deodorant
 you don’t need to shower or shave

Every year it seem like things are getting worse
Pretty soon we’ll all have to escape to the metaverse

We’ll all live below the surface and never see the light of day
And as long as we have our VR goggles everything’s going to be okay
Mark Zuckerberg’s working really hard to make sure that VR sells
Pretty soon we’ll be living like those mole people in the time machine by HG wells

Like those people in the matrix 
Floating in tanks with electrodes strapped to their heads
Going through life thinking it’s real but everything is virtual instead.

Every year it seem like things are getting worse
Pretty soon we’ll all have to escape to the metaverse
With a pair of virtual reality goggles strapped on your head
You won’t even realize that all the plants and animals are actually dead

Metaverse 3.0

Timing 4/4
Tuning 415.30 Hz A
Roots: D / A / E (Keys in 440 - // Db / Ab / Eb //)

Love 365! Valentines day for me is the biggest bullshit day of the year! I don't like the commercialisation of it nor do I like the fact that we pick one day to highlight our love for someone else! We should do that everyday in imaginative ways that doesn't involve making Hallmark bigger on the stock market! Thats for me anyways! It is cute what other people get from it I suppose but it aint enough....


Lyrics

♾️Love 365 for the whole hive♾️

Its Friday.
Your Valentine's way.
Could be Christmas...
Could be Buddhas day...
Love 365 for the whole hive

So I ask for power
Trying to focus the finds
Bring spirited shower to feed this mind
These sniper seeds see
Before, wiped off by blind me
Now I see with more energy

It's placebo... Maybe
Empowerment... Saved me
Severance... Disconnect straight away
Just request, believe that's they're making it with you

Love 365

Well.. I started this track almost a year ago? Thank goodness for Sander's (https://soundcloud.com/wane-of-summer) patience. This track means a lot to me in a lot of ways.. The longer I didn't move forward the harder it was to return to it.  However, I got really inspired when the fall and winter came back because this song definitely has a late fall / wintery feel. 

I go from feeling really good about it to OMG I need to delete all my vocals and start over. However, it must be released regardless. It may not be perfect but that is fine. It is a song from two people who don't live remotely near each other. That in itself is a beautiful feat that must be appreciated. On top of that Sander's music meeting my strange cadence and expression creates a vibe never before experienced. Of course there is the story.  

The story is of course lovers caught in a 1984-esque scenario. However, I also wrote with the inspiration of current events.  I think that is also why I wanted to release it as soon as I could.. I think it has an element of needed catharsis.  However, I am very joyful to finally release this!! so much thanks for listening if you do <3

lyrics:


 Underneath it all 
 Behind the brick and mortar tall 
Slowly becoming barren like the  fall
Trees that wish to stalll 
The distance from the sun the Earth revolves
Spring time rebirth is far 
And they're putting on the final straw

People watching revert to simple awe
As so many lines start becoming crossed
Power through crimes whats the cost
Of an entire world bound and lost
Warming up but still crowned in frost
Made hostage by the hostile law 
The coverage is constant like a coke withdrawal 
Never budging like a water soaked log
We need a fire but all we got is smoke like fog 
That obscures our view of hope till its gone

Try
Try to smile for me
Lets pretend we are free
Right Here 
While we’re Wrapped in each others arms
We know we are safe from harm


 Please turn off the radio 
When its on your eyes lose their glow 
Those voices speak poison don't you know 
They’ve chosen to keep us dull and low
Stay poised and don’t let you mind go
To where it naturally wants to the most 
Keep your cards close 

To your chest 
And never tell the rest 
Keep your secrets buried deep within your breath 
People can be trusted less and less
This is all for your best interest 
I can already tell when your thoughts want to burst from your head

I know it hurts but think of our past blessings instead
Remember when I met you back in summer of 07?
As soon as I saw you I knew within just a couple of seconds
That you were someone who was homesick for heaven 

It was a bit of a miracle you even talked to me
I was never social my thoughts never Let me be free
But you fought through my walls so playfully 
Your kiss must have worked like an open sesame 
You showed me a whole world anew a little like Disney 
It’s a little cheesy and thinking of it has me dizzy 
Your love has always made me sick like a disease 
Butterflies from you make a hurricane erupt in me


I was hoping this day would never come
But I think it was time to grab our things and run
I’d rather die than see you under a gun
Being forced to give in and succumb 
To these wicked men or whatever they have become

I no longer see any trace of love in their eyes
They despise anything that looks like life
Reflecting off of the sheen of their knives
If we leave now there is cover under disguise of night
It’s fight or flight and we both know what is right

Over 1800 Tracks now on my channel, making music on here since 2015.
Have been remastering some of my 'unloved' tracks from the past here on SC - music which has not received as many plays as I would have expected. Maybe 2nd time around your might like it.
The 2025 remastered tracks are being readied for my best of 2025 album in 2026, available January 2026.
I do not use AI on any of my work, just blood sweat and tears, and a lot of emotion/feelings. The reason I have so much music on SC is that I love making music and it is my life. Also I love to share my work with you all, please enjoy.
Have recently discovered some old tracks which I did back in 2009 but have never been previously released or worked on further. Decided to let them see the light of day, unedited and unpolished. Hope you enjoy them and can see where my humble beginnings started.
Also new for Autumn 2025, a collection of classical piano pieces which I composed back in 2010, in memory of my late father who inspired me to play the keyboard in the first place. Under the title of Magician In Private, hope you will allow my indulgence into a special world of just simple piano, no frills.
Please checkout my vast collection of playlists. All my best music is on there in one place. Is free to listen to or sleep with.
From 1st June 2025, celebrating 10 years of KORG KRONOS music with lots of brand new music showcasing the wonders of this iconic workstation in all it's glory. Also as a nod to the release of the KRONOS 3, which will take KORG into the next generation.
All my albums in full quality are available on Bandcamp, please check out the link below.
Have recently taken a short holiday to recharge my batteries and top up my creative juices. Thank you to all my followers for your continued support and encouragement, means the world to me.

Am posting some Jarre sounding pieces as homage to my lifelong hero of electronic music, using some of the sounds and instruments he has used along the way. Jar of Jarre is my collection of memorable sounds which have changed the way we appreciate modern electro.
Keep an eye out for my new collection of 2024 Remastered best of tracks, coming soon.
New year, new start. Back on the search for good music and inspiration. Will be featuring a lot of my older work remastered this year, seems like a long time since I began my composing journey back in 2000.
Happy New Year to all my followers, May 2025 be filled with musical magic.

All my remastered best tunes from 2015 to 2023 are now available to buy on Bandcamp.
Am back to making regular music now but sorry no Christmas songs this year. This time of year is very hard for me as it is when my father became very ill and died in the new year 2010. I still miss him very much but hope he would be proud of my musical journey, he is my number one inspiration.
Just a quick personal note on AI and music. I think it is not a good thing for the creative side of music and a lot of it comes without feelings or soul. Creativity is a gift, and should be greatly valued, cherished and nurtured. Music is what makes us human and can never be replaced by a computer.
Finished remastering up to and including 2023 now. Has been a mammoth task but well worth the effort. Next year I shall be working on a remastered series of my pre KORG days 2000 to 2008, in 8 volumes, as well as celebrating in style my 10 years of KRONOS magic, can't wait for 2025.
Have now amassed over 1000 tracks on SC (that's over 8000 minutes of music) and it has been a blast sharing them with you all. Next year 2025, marks the 10th anniversary of the start of my KORG journey.
Am currently putting together a remastered Anthology collection of all my best tracks from 2015 onwards. 2015 consists of a 3 volume set (Now available on Bandcamp). 2016 consists of a 4 volume set. (Also available on Bandcamp). 2017 consists of a 4 volume set. (Available on Bandcamp) 2018 consists of a 4 volume set. (Also available on Bandcamp). 2019 consists of a 4 volume set.

Have recently been rediscovering some of my older music pre KORG days and remastering for uploading to my cloud. Hope you like. Seems such a long time ago now.
I have been lucky to have music in my life, and now the time to explore how it can affect other people. I have discovered many new talented artists on SC and am happy to encourage and support their work; from small beginnings come great things. Please be inspired to be your best, inspire others too, encourage those who lack the inner courage to move forward, and together we can make music make a difference in all our lives.
Am spending a lot more time on my music now since retiring from work in July 2020. Always learning new techniques and honing my craft. Am comfortable now with all chord sequences throughout the scales and loving improvising with the help of my mighty KORG still. Am still trying to give my full support and encouragement to all SC users and some latest (you know who you are), are developing nicely. Be good to one another, be gracious to others, leave your ego out of your life and above all else remember there is always someone worse off than yourself. 
Please be kind to each other, to be happy with our lot without jealousy or greed; to give without asking the cost; to love as if there is no tomorrow; to share and inspire others who may be less fortunate than us; most of all to enjoy life for the joy of living, for we know not what the morning brings - stay safe my friends, be strong and always stay positive; remember life changes - DON'T let it change you!!  
Music is my life - has helped me through many dark places, is a big part of who I am. I put my heart and soul into every single piece of music I produce. I have found many wonderful friends on SC and many exciting talented people.  Been writing and producing music now for 40 years plus. Specialised in electronic based orchestral compositions. I have created my own genre which I call 'electrorchestration'.
Favourite artists/bands include Gary Numan, Little Boots, Jools Holland, Eno, Edgar Froese (1944-2015), Jordan Rudess, Kebu, Madis, Keith Emerson (1944-2016), Rick Wakeman, Richard Wright (1943-2008), Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, Jean Michel Jarre, M83, Public Service Broadcasting, Dream Theater, ELP, Yes and Mystery to name but a few.
