Colored By Setting Sun

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

Binary Aspect Of Walking vs. Non Dualistic Nature Of Flying

Crathxo Tray

This song came about in a rather odd way, in pieces at first. Somewhere this phrase came out and I went with it as an expression of the often heartless way of corporate business life. Trying to get ahead but losing track of yourself and your real values along the way. My humble attempt to pay tribute to Pete Seeger or Phil Ochs perhaps😁. Special thanks to Hamilton Belk for his beautiful dobro playing on this recording, and to Nat Daniels for her wonderful work in remixing and producing the final outcome, vastly improving on the original version I did some years ago.

Lyrics: The Cuttin’ Way by Craig Durgy

Found my way, beyond this cuttin’ way
This hustlin’, bustlin’ way of life
That’s cut me like a knife

Starts today, leaving that cuttin’ way
That blood for nothin’ way of life
I’m cuttin’ out of sight

Ohhh, where did I go
Why did I follow, didn’t I know?
Ohh, hear the wind blow
Lay down your burden and let…the rope go

I saw daylight through windows and doors
Working my way up through so many floors
Never arriving, no slowing down
Leaving my soul at the floor, on the ground

Found my way, beyond this cuttin’ way
This hustlin’, bustlin’ way of life
That’s cut me like a knife

Starts today, leaving that cuttin’ way
That blood for nothin’ way of life
I’m cuttin’ out of sight

Never arriving, no slowing down
Leaving my soul at the floor, on the ground

The Cuttin’ Way

The Cuttin' Way

File Updated: Epiphone in with it's epic A/G string octave power chords and more vox

To do: lower guitar in mix and improve vox mix. Drop whole song to 432 and make the bronski beat bits a bit easier

add a harp section towards the end. 365 notes each one representing a day of the year to love

Tempo 111 bpm
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

Latest Updates: 
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.
Over 10K minutes uploaded, over 1500 tracks - am sure there is something in there for everybody to enjoy. I love making music. Hope it matters to you.
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.

If you would like to listen to more of Magician, especially retro older tracks please checkout Bandcamp (see link below).
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.
