From the new album 'Buchker', releasing as HYPROB26 digitally and on CD, Halloween 2021.

NGMY - Thwind

It is the music of the feeling that is urbane in a motif in light and a shadow, and is behavioral.
To the active rhythm of the piano, a flute plays a melody.
As for the backing, an acoustic guitar, an electric guitar, a base, a drum, strings feel rhythm.
I can use it as picture and BGM.

Fun Facts:
* Oily Road Hideaway is in the key of G minor and the tempo is 85 BPM.
* It was composed at around eleven o’clock on a Friday morning in October 2000.
* Instead of being at home composing a tune, George should have been in Luxembourg to celebrate Floyd and Kat’s wedding.
* Unfortunately, Joe’s old Ford Sierra wasn’t up to the task of completing the journey.
* At around 3am, the old Ford emptied the contents of its sump all over the A303, about two miles from Stonehenge.
* The stricken Sierra was towed right back to Exeter and its sleepy occupants returned to their homes, disappointed.
* Within 15 minutes of returning home, George had composed this piece on a Hokada classical guitar.
* Nearly all the other pieces on the album At Least 1000 Words had their drums recorded at Tim’s house in North Devon, in a room about the size of a toilet.
* The mics were all pretty horrid too, and the whole system looked like it had been built by Captain Hook at a Heath Robinson school for elementary electronics.
* Oily Road Hideaway is the only track on the album that uses programmed drums.
* The rhythm breakdown in the middle of the piece was somewhat longer originally, and cut down quite drastically to save precious space on the CD.
* The Hokada classical guitar, on which the piece was written, plays two parts panned to the left.
* One is the main rhythm part, and the other a melodic motif, which only uses the two top strings.
* The nature of the part means that if one should find oneself at a party where there is a wreck of a two-string guitar, it is still possible to play Oily Road Hideaway!
* The other lead guitar part is played on the Yamaha steel string, which is panned to the right and plays unison with the bass to begin.
* Oily Road Hideaway features a delicate, wistful ostinato played on the string fish, an extraordinary instrument built by Martin from Pyg.
* It starts at 2:05 and continues to the drum break, then reappears at 2:54 and plays until the end.
* A string fish is a like a pair of dulcimers or zithers, joined together at an acute angle.
* The strings are vertical and to play a scale, the player must alternate between the left and right side, like a kalimba.
* Dave and George both play a unison bassline, on the Fender and the Plank respectively.
* George and the Plank are panned right, Dave and the Fender panned left.
* Just after the drum break, at 2:48, George plays two notes that Dave doesn’t play.
* Other than that, their parts are beautifully in sync.
* Flicker would have liked very much to have found a brass section for Oily Road Hideaway, but none was available.

My take on a Lord Huron song "Wait by the River".

Wait By The River - ( Lord Huron cover)

CLOSE YOUR EYES

A song about survivalism and developing a military mindset. 

Lyrics:

"Save your breath, do you have the will?"

Bury The Earth (demo)

Fresh Fave 378. Review below. 

"This is kippers for breakfast, toe curling wonder, zest on the tongue, salt in the wind, tequila burn in the chest good. I just felt Bananrama It’s Not What You Do It’s the Way That You Do It. I smell some Kate Bush influences too. Damn, I listened to the first 42 seconds over and over again. From the wondrous simplicity of the bass, the toms and the vocals “can you hear my heartbeat”. We enter the weirdness from there, nice weirdness, like deep fried mars bars, weaving a musical batter, turning your brain into a crispy exterior whilst melting your mind into a warm delightful goo on the inside."

We're going through some strange wild, 
We're crawling on our hands and our feet,
And they're coming for us!
Oooo, can you hear my heartbeat?

Engines sulking, suits sleep-walking, 
Where were you while I was talking?
Pockets fatten, flowers flatten, 
What's the worst thing that could happen?

Chorus. 

Kind's in hiding, love's deciding, 
Careful there, your mask is sliding. 
Words have seeded, most unneeded, 
I will weed if weeding's needed. 

Chorus.

Strange Wild

live in the living = Live recording in my living room. The idea is obvious. After rereading this classic I needed to find out what sick flies would sound like.

Flies of the Lord

I am a 22 year cancer fighter now. I had my left lung removed 22 years ago, so I sing with one lung. Had to give up my saxophone playing. In 2020 I battled throat cancer. I beat it but it came right back within months. I've been learning and getting more serious about piano and Software instruments since then. I like writing songs for other people I meet battling cancer and other serious diseases. To help them see they are not alone, and that others feel lost and afraid just like they often do.   I know my whole life has changed since my cancer battle began. I use Reason 12 software to create most of my songs. You can create your own sounds with Reason, so I like creating unique sounds you can only hear in my music. 
I play a Yamaha Tyros2 keyboard and record into Reason 12 software DAW, as well as Sequence some things.
God Bless you for sharing my songs and supporting my work.
