A weird version of the classic Sex Pistols tune.

In the absence of "Pistol", the upcoming TV series about the legendary band, I started listening to the old Sex Pistols songs. Pretty Vacant was and is my favorite.

I tried to do the song like the original but I'm way from the attitude and sound. So... This is my version!

The Edit Version of the song contains 
another snare drum and a less hot master = more dynamic

PRETTY VACANT edit (Sex Pistols cover)

From the album "Cairn" (2024)

Lyrics:

Forest Giants

On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Hey loner
Come over
To my forest
It's getting warmer
Stay hidden
Forbidden
It's written on the wind

On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
On
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Forest Giants

I sent a song to my dear friend David, on his birthday, and invited him to start his birthday by taking a walk with me in our nature here in Sweden, to hear what possibly inspired, and appeared during this walk. ;)

You can also experience this walk visually here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uvdvLJZB0U

I also sent it to our dear colleagues Ed, Dan & Peter who have done many great collaborations with us, and asked them to "walk with us". ;)
This is the result of this delightful walk..... and we all, wish you all to have a lovely morning walk with this beauty, stillness, and pleasantness, during a wonderful morning, wherever you are. ;)

David on two acoustic guitars with beautiful melody, from both, as only he can play. ;)
You can find more of David's wonderful music here: https://soundcloud.com/david-dunhamuser589535203

Ed with his outstanding electric guitar playing, who also assisted with a soft with a feeling and beautiful bass guitar. ;) You can find more of Ed's fantastic music here: https://soundcloud.com/westtracksmusic

Dan-DT with his lovely "French Fantasies" musical effects with the lovely voice of Clara, a brilliant piano, although very subtle, and synth effects. ;) You can find more of Dan's fantastic music here: https://soundcloud.com/dan-t-3

And our dear poet/lyricist Peter, who with his unmistakable voice conveys a message to you all, as he always does ,with a feeling and meaning that touches us all deeply. ;) You can find more of Peter's lovely poetry/lyrics and songs here: https://soundcloud.com/user-264930040/tracks

Have a superb morning, wherever you are in life. ;)

Peter lyric:
A tempered bond of ether gold forged from trust in seeming kin

Blenched of ore hewn from so much more than mere common ground

Metallicised, a like of kind that cannot tarnish, ne'er to rust, it's strength, atomic, set within

And so my grateful thoughts are due, my friend, to you, as one where empathy is ever found

To crystallize a state of mind as if from walks in morning dew as bright new days begin.

A Walk In The Morning Dew - Seagull, David, Ed, Dan & Peter

We hope that you like this new collaboration. This song really needed some magic in the middle sections and Jorg kindly provided a sensational Sax solo!!

STORM   (Ft Jorg Stohwasser )  "Joerxworx"

Continuing with my revival project.
This is a new recording of a very old song of mine written back in my university days.   I studied engineering but I never practiced and eventually became a supply chain guy in the I.T. industry.   I hesitated in sharing this one because when I listen to it now so many years later, it really doesn't mean much. It was all aroused by the inferior complex of being in a second stream college.

Just hope you would still like the song.  Thanks so much for stopping by.

[LYRICS]
There was once an erratic city					
	Inside was a few dominant factories				
With the principles of jigs & fixtures					
	Making components to build up the picture				
					
There's a product A and there's a product B					
	In fact there is not much difference in quality				
Brand A produced a smaller quantity					
	By logic it’s of a higher degree				
					
"Brand A is much more expensive					
	(but) their reputation sure fits me well"				
That's what the customers said					
	Never mind the technical detail…………				
					
Oh well, here they go				
	Inject materials and do the show			
Choose the speed, apply the feed,				
	Leave to the machines to complete			
				
Which way does the wind blow				
	Don't ever ask us, we don't know			
Fourier Series, Surface Integral,				
	Daily routines, off we go………….			
				
Here we are, back in the mixture				
	of lousy jigs & inaccurate fixtures			
As long as we can build up the picture				
	Who will care about the surface texture ?

Jigs & Fixtures

Written and performed by Stefano Manotti

A song born after spending an entire day in the woods... A song against depression, an enemy that makes us forget about the beauty surrounding us... Life is a struggle, and we must fight to see beyond our sorrows...

LYRICS

Courage came on my first sunny day
Birds fly higher, life is beautiful today
Let me touch The morning grass
Let me see What lies beyond

I am alone but I'm touching everything
Eyes are tired, but life is beautiful today
Let the wind make me fall 
I just want to forget These walls
 
The sun is hiding now 
Life can win if you play 
You feel dizzy, but life is beautiful today

Life Is Beautiful Today

Heaven Can Wait

The roots of Reggae and Dub:
The roots of Reggae and Dub music are primarily in Jamaica. Reggae evolved in the 1960s from Ska and Rocksteady, which were already popular in Jamaica in the 1950s. Artists like Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Jimmy Cliff played a significant role in popularizing and spreading Reggae.
Dub music is a subgenre of Reggae that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Dub is characterized by its experimental soundscapes and the use of studio effects such as echo, reverb, and phasing. Producers like King Tubby, Lee "Scratch" Perry, and Scientist were pioneers of Dub and have had a decisive influence on this music genre.
Both music styles have deep roots in Jamaican culture and are closely connected to social, political, and religious themes. However, they have also incorporated international influences and have become global music phenomena.
