I went to my favourite bench just beyond the Tanworth-in-Arden churchyard (here's the view) around noon on the day of Sonya Chenery's memorial service and sat and recorded this tribute of one of her and James Edge's songs on my phone. You can hear the wind, birds and schoolkids in the background. A nice lady from the church came nearby and said how nice it sounded.

"Rain" Is the final song in our "Baako-Baako Collection".. it brings together everything we love about writing music, Ghanaian rhythms, Weird timings and lots of groove! We've loved releasing singles that are all slightly different and this sticks to that trend. Its quickly becoming a band favourite to play.

Reversing Sideways In An Upward Direction

Action Man With A Giraffe's Head

all of the way down...

it's a heavy sort of floating,
please don't let me fall,
please don't let me fall all the way down...

i've been locked inside for days and days,
dreams telling me: "do what the Master says"

Archie please,
broken knees,
wearing the weather,
keep it together,

 Fast-Food-Tantalus,
and his worry warts,
cast the coins,
but the oracle won't answer,

Archie Please,
dream disease,
the corpse of his Mother,
to give to his Brother,

pick it up/put it down...

Archie Please

The sixth of my tunes, written and recorded during the lunar cycle to coincide with the full moon. 
Its another short  piece, written about the inverse of normality.

Writing Pen  (#6 August 2012)

it's been a very long time,
since i had a friend of mine you know,
i no longer align,
with the outside world and so,

if i say what i mean,
and i mean what i want,
and i speak all the pain,
all the pain n my heart,

it'll go:

Rh'eep U'hn'arhy,
Awaigh-haigh-haigh,
 A-Rh'eep a-bin-Fiyn,

Oh no it'll go,

suffering, suffering,
mmm-ba-badada,
far away
mmm-ba-badada,
away-hey-hey,
