Description: Mixing it up a little here for the Pre Game

Clearly, you've got a big game about to happen in the US as we have here in the UK, so this fits the mood perfectly.  Quality sounds, Jamie.

Somehow this music makes me think of little Woodstock of the Peanuts fame :) That little high motif.  It makes me smile.

Love this groove..gorgeous chord changes..fantastic keyboard work..mesmerizing & captivating..great mix & recording! Love the synthesizer work!

nice harmonical work, pleasing progression and transparent sound 👍

Baby, The Rain Will Stop

Lyrics, guitar & engineering: A.J. Kaufmann (@ajkaufmann)
Vibraphone and other instruments: Matthias am Klavier

AJ Kaufmann and me both lived in Berlin for some time and when he send me this song, I was directly inmersed in the feelings of my time living there. Not always the nicest feelings, but with a taste of art, darkness and adventure...

(obviously influenced by Bowie's, Nico's and Lou's very early sounds...) 

Lyrics:

Walking down same old alleys
Looking for my face in the wind
Imaginary radio
Plays some Sinatra for me
Yeah I know it's cheap
But it knocks me off my feet
Anyhow

There were times of wicked beauty
Met in old Berlin
A cigarette & a cup of coffee
A woman in between
Yeah I know she's fine
But she couldn't read my mind
Anyway

Give me the blues
And blow me away
For a day

With her whip she looked so sweet
And she moved with grace
Oh but I swear a man like you
Wouldn't like to be in my place
Yeah that's how it is
She's got her little whip
And a smile

We ran wildly thru the streets
Flew like the Zeppelin
Not the one that crashed to the ground
But the one that flies in your dreams
We didn't ever want to land
We had so many plans
Now they're gone

Give me the blues
And blow me away
For a day

Wild days, wilder nights
Amphetamine & drinks
Oh how I pity you catholic boys
And all you catholic girls
Joy is my name 
My woman is insane
Still we fly

Give me the blues
And blow me away
For a day

Bard's woman in the cool of the summer breeze

I looked back at the few notes I collected during this Photo Op's song development time-frame and concluded I did not have much to go on after a two year lapse.  The lyrics were not fully documented in my notebook. I must have been using lyric ideas and ad-libbing them into the song. I do not know my state of mind and wish I was better at capturing this closer to the song's conception point.

Life was still fairly locked down due to Covid, Trump was still in-office and the George Floyd protests were ongoing. The song was created without any direct outside musical influence driving the creative direction. This was me inside my studio starting from ground zero and evolving the song over the course of probably several weekends by playing around with sounds, rhythms and textures until a fuzzy shape of cohesion slowly emerged.

Listening back, I suspect, I smashed together two fairly divergent musical ideas. Bold move Dave and perhaps disastrous from a song gluing perspective. I like it anyway. Lyrics were influenced by what was going on around me and one of those things was a narcissist clutching a bible and clearing a peaceful protest with tear gas to enable his next photo op in front of the church.  A holy moment indeed. 

Lyrics
Photo Op
by David Husted

Dew drop dreams
Silly games
Buy some more stuff
Throw it away
Is it me?
Where did I go?
When we turn our backs
let them take it away.

They say it's gonna rain again
I don’t have an umbrella
They say its time to hate again
Photo ops and killing

Is it really so improbable?
State news and oligarchs selling fools
Make lies a game, and fear predominant 
Shake the base of our democracy

Photo Op

My sister and I wrote this rather jazzy track a few moons ago. Was recently remastered by my lovely Sander. We hope you enjoy this instrumental number full of gorgeous strings from my big sister Jane. 😊🎶❤️🎻
