Empire of Light

Routine

You dont get time to think it out. [carry on]
Always lots of drink about. [sing your songs]
There's lots that you can't know.
From far below. 

There's a need to claim respite,
There's a way to end each night.
There's a place where you can go to carry on.
You can feel it in the pit.
Of your stomach where it hits.
Like a hot knife that is saying you've gone wrong.

You won't get half the time you need. [carry on]
Careful of the signs you heed. [sing your songs]
[won't be long]
[can't be wrong]
There's places left to go.
Which all lay you low.

We made off with the buskers guitars,
and stood and played oasis songs for hours.
You lead all the dancing in the crowd,
and clapped your hands off beat to keep them roused.
They called out requests and gathered round,
while we just both ignore their pleas aloud.
More, they cried as I played facelessly.
The people who would view me sceptically.

Inside you might be crying out [carry on]
Sure that there us no way out. [sing your songs]
You'll face the day alone.
Pulled down so low.

We can go here after bar.
Sinister you are.
One day you'll need a place to call your home.
Just keep pushing alone.
The night that you must roam.
There's only one straw that will break your back.

No point in trying to work it out. [carry on]
Have you ever tried to think it out? [sing your songs]
[won't be long]
[can't be wrong]
Nowhere left to go.
Except far below.

In any beam of sunlight of the day.
You'd cross the street and pass the other way.
Whilst our attempts to reach the other side.
Are met with naught but frowns and lack of pride.

You lead your procession to the clouds.
Whilst those who must remain just scrabble bout.
Looking for a fragment of your peace.
Least hoping to hang on to some relief.

Always lots to think about. [carry on]
Always too much drink about. [sing your songs]
[won't be long]
[can't be wrong]
Carry on alone. 
dragged down below. 

After Bar Sinister

A Future to Deny

This was recorded one sunny morning in January. We Don't Have To Last Forever. Maybe we don't. Would be nice if we did, to come back and make the world better.

We Don't Have To Last Forever.

"A hypothetical conversation that you compulsively play out in your head—a crisp analysis, a cathartic dialogue, a devastating comeback—which serves as a kind of psychological batting cage where you can connect more deeply with people than in the small ball of everyday life, which is a frustratingly cautious game of change-up pitches, sacrifice bunts, and intentional walks."

Have To Be Without Love

BlackLight's fourth album takes you on a path of freedom, spiritual quest, and love. Powerful and dynamic dance/electronic rhythms will get you moving and dancing.
BlackLight asks and reflects on fundamental questions without being preachy, the goal being to always enjoy everything we accomplish with perspective and kindness.
Your autumn will be rich, rhythmic, and full of meaning.
Listen without hesitation!

Where are you

Back to October

After almost four years, the new album is finally finished. To be honest, I never planned it. It came about in stages. Sometimes haltingly, sometimes smoothly, and sometimes not at all. In the end, though, I can say that it's the most personal of all my previous albums.

ONYX is the soundtrack to new beginnings and self-improvement. in the 5 or so month since leaving the last homeless shelter, i saw the financial impacts of covidsars2 coincided with moving into a new apartment and beginning a new journey in independence. in this time i've have begun daily restructuring of my efforts in self-improvement, multimedia production, information technology, and fan relationship nurturing. ONYX as a result contains more dreamy melodies and tactile rhythms. I told my cousin the other day "It's electronica music that sticks to your soul," and indeed you all will hear that on August 21st when it releases <33
