Name: Cactus Face by Jamie Flett
Duration: 5 min 11 s
Description: Wondering at some of our self-imposed constraints and problems and wishing for some simplicity, at the same time as revelling in what keeps us honest and free. In this kind of spirit it was played with a collection of available friends (nominally the 'Flaming Jets') on a collection of available instruments.

Bright Lights

A strange offering from the safetynett vaults, recalling an evening of sausage/mash and tripping, with contributions from joe summers, julia baur and megga-n

Desire

Wondering at some of our self-imposed constraints and problems and wishing for some simplicity, at the same time as revelling in what keeps us honest and free. In this kind of spirit it was played with a collection of available friends (nominally the 'Flaming Jets') on a collection of available instruments.

Tales From The Cuckoo's Nest

Cactus Face

Forever

We keep coming back to this
A heart of stone, a heart of glass
I know that I could never ask
As I watch you walk away

And I try to think to say
A word to make it right
A poem to make it beautiful
A song to make you stay

Well I keep coming back to this
You'll leave me if you really need to
I know that you won't say why
Or lay awake at night

And I try to think to say
A word to make it right
A poem to make it beautiful
A song to make you stay

Well we keep coming back to this
A heart of stone, a heart of glass

Heart Of Glass

The influence of Joy Division come clearly through in this upbeat piece from safetynett

Crumbling Walls

Downbeat elctronica laced with guitars and haunting vocals.

Almost Happy

Nov 9th snowman blues

Music maker from Aberdeen in the North East of Scotland, now living in Glasgow.  Since my first collection of skewed, folkish blues songs: ‘Cold But Bright’ I’ve tried to resist the artificial limitations of defining myself as a ‘singer-songwriter’ (admittedly, while writing and singing songs.) This has resulted in attempts to investigate some remoter sonic territories.. As well as more songs.
