Orionis – (Coda) Uru-anna

Le Destin de Léia

This song started with Kuba, my Polish friend, sending me a song idea, where he was playing guitar and singing in English. To that, I added bass, slide, mandolin, and piano. I also rewrote the lyrics to give them a better sounding English flow, then sang the high and low harmonies, too. It changed from a song about "waiting for the mountain dew," to "when you dance, the skies are blue." 
  I like finding public domain common melodies in songs, too, so if you pay close attention to the slide, you'll hear me quoting Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in there. 
  I really like Kuba's song ideas and our process together. Speaking of people with whom I like to work, I asked Tez (Llanpsych) to produce and mix the whole thing, even though his instrumental skills are absent from the song. 
  I was going for a European village folk song feel for this one. Hope you enjoy our love song. 
Lyrics:
When you dance, the skies are blue
When you dance, I'll play the tune
When you dance, I want a view 
When you dance, the mountains do
When you dance, you really move
When you dance, I bow to you
When you dance, I see right through
When you dance, I feel renewed

When you sing... Same endings  

The skies are blue when I'm with you
When I'm with you I hear the tune
Oh what a view when I'm with you
The mountains shake I turn to goo
We get around when I'm with you
When I'm with you we're in the nude
We see the truth when I'm with you
When I'm with you I'm less confused

The Mountains Do (with Kuba aka Modern Sound Orchestra, and Llanpsych)

This song was written about this lake, way up high, overlooking the sky. 

I could go anywhere
I could see all the things 
This world has to give
And at the end of it 
I just wanna come to your place

Can I stay here
Can I stay here
Can I stay here
Can I stay

She walks on the water 
He tries not to see
Her reflection
The glow 
But him tells him everything
She stands in the morning 
Her gaze far away
What I found
Do I touch 
Can I stay
Tell me everything

I could go anywhere
I could see all the things 
This world has to give
And at the end of it 
I just wanna come to your place
She walks on the water 
He tries not to see
Her reflection
The glow 
But him tells him everything
She stands in the morning 
Her gaze far away
What I found
Do I touch 
Can I stay
Tell me everything

Can I stay here
Can I stay here
Can I stay here
Can I stay

Get Up But Git Down

River And Falls

Coming Through
Thought I was a lightweight. 
My flight plan—is up to date  
my playlist —on rotate 
beats bumping ——with tight brakes
just Call that———-solid State
Not here ——to negotiate
touchdowns—of—a—heavyweight 
I score ——and I penetrate 
Gone platinum —-straight out the gate
The crowd’s up——— we——celebrate
The pulse ——and the heart rate
No——-overtime—I’m feeling great 
The vibe’s ——love—-and never —hate
And this is—-how ——-I navigate
———-Not here to negotiate 

—coming through—- with a vengeance 
declared my independence 
It’s underground not industry
I’ve got them doing penance 
that’s right—- I took the high road 
not paid——-but i upload
The mix ——stirred—-to sound good
they’re hanging—— on my every word
they’re hanging—— on my every word
on my every word

Thank god——- for his blessings 
Each track ———a new lesson 
Hold on tight——-I’m coming through
Monument—still——collecting 
There—-Ain’t no second guessing
Looking forward—— to my next win
believe it—when—they leave—-
Like Lettuce—-cause—-I’m the dressing
—-no resting—— now—the best thing
Expanding and Investing———-
So ——Dreams are manifesting 
—-The flames I spit—-the game is lit🔥🔥 🔥
I’m burning —-down the contest
fireworks ——at your doorstep 
Scorch earth—-plan——in effect
You heard me—-and you know the rep
If you Feel the heat ——-you overslept 
no time and no——mistakes 
I still spark ——-your interest
The alarm goes off—-are you awake
Here’s your wake up call —-more or less 
Not a word —cause—-you’re speechless 

Like water in the low land 
from China —straight—to Japan 
They’ll never —-know my flight plan, 
Or the reasons— that I don’t land 
Stay cool if you’re a fan——-
Calm—-cause I’ve got this
On the edge of——the abyss
A mystery that they—-can’t resist
—Still—-drenched in sweat
Your Dripping wet—your look is pure anguish

A big thank you to Jo Richter @sonic-textures for offering up this inspiring open collaboration poem! His recording, also quite strange and experimental, can be found here:
https://soundcloud.com/sonic-textures/the-passing-crave-voice-effects

The rhythmic background in my track was created by taking Jo's recording and chopping it up into fragments, then running it through a sample arpeggiator using an app called Samplr. Jo's recording is also used in the backward tape effect at the beginning and end, also created with Samplr. 

To further experiment with tape manipulation effects I did my own reading of the poem, then snipped the vocals into fragments and pitch-shifted them, this time using the Abu Dhabi dynamic loop slicer in Korg Gadget. Of course I also layered on some synth and keys (arturia microfreak, minilogue xd). Quite a different approach for me on this one, but it all came together surprisingly quickly considering the relative complexity. I hope to experiment with similar techniques going forward, I'm finding it fun to work with poetry and spoken word, so am definitely open to more collaborations that go in this direction!

Lyrics copyright Jo Richter (Sonic Structures and Silent Stretches)

the day slopes
down the hill
his residence rests on

the clouds in his gaze
match the clouds in the sky
as the winds gently shape them

he has a slow meal
within shifting structures 
of people who rush by

stopped at a corner
he sees squatters evicted
from ivory lodgings

matching his steps
to the patterns of stones
he rewrites the pavement

past the outskirts of town
he watches a beetle
scuttle along a fencepost

he walks past the tree
he has been dreaming of
for ten years in a row now

in liquified air
this moment freezes
unseeing his life

Happy Monday my SC friends. Today I am supremely excited to offer you (the listener) my next collaborative creation of 2023; and for those keeping track at home, this is my 4th collab with the legendary (at least, in my mind) Stone Catcherye (https://soundcloud.com/stonecatcherye, https://stonecatcherye.bandcamp.com/). 

Stoney’s lyrics speak for themselves; but I gotta say, I am sharing the sentiment. We hope you enjoy our latest collab, ‘Scintilla’ (and we hope you have some bell bottoms lying around… cuz this is not a drill). :D

Lyrics:

there's a small piece inside of me
defenselessness be thy name
it's a party where nothing's free
who would care to explain

dark. all it takes is a spark
a trace of love in your heart
are you brilliant or just smart
then dig down deeper

there's a small piece inside of me
that's shown interest to scream
it's a riot inside of me
and my brain's the police
in contempt and unbendingly
I surrender, it seems

dark. all it takes is a spark
a trace of love in your heart
are you brilliant or just smart
then dig down deeper

heart. need to get back my spark
get in the state of the art
not let this peel me apart
and dig down deeper

if I dig deep enough,
maybe I'll bury me...

heart. need to get back my spark
get in the state of the art
not let this peel me apart
and dig down deeper

dark. all it takes is a spark
a trace of love in your heart
are you just brilliant or smart
then dig down deeper

if I dig deep enough maybe I'll plant a seed
put in all that I have just to feel that in green
if I care for this deep, it will grow to a tree
and I'll save all it's sap and pick up all of it's leaves

F.W. Friends

This is a song Chris wrote and asked me to play on. I love the lyrics and how they match the vibe of the song perfectly. He's playing guitar and bass, and I'm on the piano, slide, and organ. He told me it's supposed to be a whisper beneath the giant's bed as they tiptoe around under him, and that I should leave space for his breaths. I immensely enjoyed making this song with Chris, as always. Here are the lyrics. We hope you enjoy it. Wonderful lullaby, too. I've been listening to it in bed right before I go to sleep. Try it!
I played the piano on this. Chris played the guitar, sang it, and produced it. 

You need to be quiet, 
you don't want to wake, the sleeping giant. 
When you go, tip toe, around his bed so, you don't wake that tyrant. 
(hmmm hmmm hmmm) x 2 
I think it's time now, 
We can change his mind around, 
the stupid giant. 
I'll whisper in his ear, 
we're the only one's he should fear.
There's far too many of us, you don't need to cause a fuss or be defiant.
(instrumental-ish) into trippy part
(hmmm hmmm hmmm) x 1
So when you wake tomorrow,
you'll be filled with sorrow.
You're just a giant.

Sleeping Giant (with cgmaness)
