Joli travail. Belle interpètation. Excellent à entendre. Bravo.

wonderful recorder playing - great collab with Brian <3

Fine playing from both - beautiful sound and production! Recorders rock!!

Oh this is fantastic, so nice and cozy :)

this is so well played!!!! sweetest music

Soothing & relaxing! Great extraordinary fascinating sound experience! Excellent quality flute work.. Awesome mix & recording production!

To draw a straight line between NO LISTENS and the quality and substance of music is unadulterated, simple minded, rank stupidity, so don't be discouraged, if no one is listening to your music, it's likely because the right audience can't FIND your music!
>
The internet is now so FLOODED with music there is more chance of finding a needle in a haystack than the right audience finding your creations, but let's keep doing it for the love it anyway! 
>
Perhaps the time will come when those just seeking fame and fortune will wise up and drop out of the race, leaving the field clear for those motivated solely by passion, and perhaps prospectors, tired of being spoon-fed, fired up by curiosity, thirsty for authenticity and invention, may one day dig up those gems of yours, so KEEP ON KEEPING ON, let passion guide your creativity!

SUPPORT gathers MOMENTUM when RECIPROCATED vol 1

Way of the World (ft. Koshio)

P-Freesia Refracta

Atlanta’s “Bog Witch” and Boise’s “Mystic Tape Deck” announce the release of a new collaborative single, “Dogs of Chernobyl” to mark the anniversary of the Chernobyl Disaster.

Following the April 26, 1986 nuclear accident, the City of Pripyat was evacuated. The residents were forced to leave their pets (including domestic dogs) behind.  

Nearly 40 years after the accident, the descendants of these dogs are still living in the Exclusion Zone and a study is currently taking place. 

Scientists are sampling the DNA of the dogs. Apparently, their DNA is irregular in some interesting ways.

Wendy writes “I couldn’t sleep one night and picked-up my phone to surf when I noticed an article about the radioactive dogs of Chernobyl.  Right away it seemed like a song.”  

Wendy invited Mystic Tape Deck to collaborate with her in creating the sonic pallet for this song, the proceeds from all sales of which will be donated to the Clean Futures Fund. 

The Clean Futures Fund relies upon donations to provide medical supplies, vaccines, and food for the dogs living in the Exclusion Zone.  

Donate $1 or more to the Clean Futures Fund via Bandcamp and receive a download of the single: https://mystictapedeck.bandcamp.com/track/dogs-of-chernobyl

Conform to the concept of an eternal love & this infinite wait
If you in fact know of the purity of love then it is never too late
Were you not consumed by the words of the Invisible Flame
By the truth of loves sorrow & the girl who called my name

Beside me breathing in the ocean air responding to my embrace
So you took on the persona of who you really are as I kissed your face
Everything inside you was at peace as the Invisible Flame spoke
This road goes on forever but who was it who left this heart broke

LYRICS:
----------------------------
(townie)
People in this town, they've all seen you hangin' around
They don't like it
They're not buyin' what you're sellin', standing' on your box and yellin'
They don't like it
Their sentiment is strong, and they asked you move along
They don't like it. They really don't like it.

(monty)
People in this town, one by one they sneak around
They seem to like it
They come and they go, they never let the neighbors know
That they like it
They may hide it from the rest, but their coins inside my chest say they like it
Oh, I think they like it. They like it.

(townie)
With your shell games and dice, I ain't tellin' you twice
I don't like it
They're down on their knees while you sell them your disease
I don't like it
With your slug milk and wine, they're just fish on your line
I don't like it I really don't like it.

(monty)
I am just a businessman, I make my living where I can
The way I like it
I am sure you understand, I'm just meeting their demand
And I like it
So there's no need to taunt, I just give them what they want and they like it, 
Oh I think they like it, and I like it

(townie)
They say that you're depraved, that you're sick and can't be saved
We don't like it.
And the medicine you sell isn't making them well
We don't like it.
So just get on down the road, if you'd like, I'll help you load
We don't like it. We really don't like it.

(monty)
My patience wearing thin, I take another one on the chin
Because they like it.
So I guess I'll up and go, take my tack and tents in tow
I don't like it
But your virtue is a clown, so I'll go to the next town
Where they like it. I'll go where they like it.
Where they like it.

Recercada prima 1553 (Passamezzo Antico)

Admire the Chaos 
A song for a strong independent woman who doesn’t suffer fools gladly and makes you admire her chaos.



V1 
I love the way you don’t suffer fools, gladly, and you tell them what you think
It must be your superpower and tonight you look so  pretty in ink 
And I love the shock on their faces 
It’s like you tied together their laces 


Chorus 
I will Sit back admire the chaos 
And watch it unfold 
I Sit back admire the chaos
And watch the room explode 

V2 
I love the way you are and stand your ground at the bar
And reduce grown men to become smaller than they are 
There’s always something scary about a woman’s scorn
But your not scary just chaos i adore


Chorus 
I will Sit back admire the chaos 
And watch it unfold 
I Sit back admire the chaos
And watch the room explode

Admire The Chaos ~ Conscience Of Kings

In the WRONG PLACE at THE WRONG TIME with THE WRONG MINDSET, apparently making THE #WRONG #MUSIC, but it feels #RIGHT to ME!

Highly unlikely more than one of my tunes will ever be heard by more than a handful of listeners, so just for the record here is an incomplete list of artists my music has been compared to by other musicians, depending on which tunes they heard, StevenVellou (Gothic Funk)

RESIDENTS, PHILIP GLASS, DAVID BYRNE, FRANK ZAPPA, THE BEATLES, BAUHAUS, SISTERS OF MERCY, DAVID BOWIE, LOU REED, CAPTAIN BEEFHEART, PARLIAMENT, SYD BARRETT, PINK FLOYD, PSYCHIC TV, NEU, MOMUS, MINISTRY, CHARLES IVES, BEACH BOYS, KINKS, THE FALL, JOY DIVISION, DEPECHE MODE, GARY NUMAN, LEONARD COHEN, STONE ROSES, GIORGIO MORODER, GEORGE CLINTON, THE CURE, DALIS CAR, JOHN ASTLEY, KILLING JOKE, ALIEN SEX FIEND, ROBERT FRIPP, DEVO, B52’s, IAN CURTIS, FAD GADGET, TALKING HEADS, GORILLAZ, MIKE PATTON, JON ZORN, LES CLAYPOOL, STEVEN REICH, TOM WAITS, THE EX, TOM CORA, THE CAKE, NAPOLEON XIV, KEVIN AYERS, ROXY MUSIC, FRANK TOVEY, RUPERT HINES, ROBYN HITCHCOCK, DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT, SPARKS, BILL NELSON, JOHN CALE, TRIO, JULIAN COPE, HEAVEN 17, LLOYD COLE, TUBEWAY ARMY, FRONT 242, NITZER EBB, COCKNEY REBEL, SHRIEKBACK, VICTOR SNOW, GORDON LIGHTFOOT, THE THE, BABYBIRD, JOHN LENNON, ULTRAVOX, DAN DEACON, BACH, SQUEEZE, ANDREW ELDRITCH, IGGY POP, MIDNIGHT OIL, BILLY CHILDISH, BUTTHOLE SURFERS, VELVET UNDERGROUND, LOVE AND ROCKETS, ART OF NOISE, LOOK PEOPLE, CABARET VOLTAIRE, PRODIGY, et al.

Don't take sides and I'll respect you for it; take sides and I'll treat you with the same contempt I treat anyone with a mob mentality, because mob mentality invariantly betrays an underlying intolerant right-wing mentality!
>
#SUPPORT gathers #MOMENTUM when #RECIPROCATED!
>
My tunes are ten times better than you might imagine!
>
A lack of listens proves nothing, other than the fact that no one is finding your tunes; it does not prove, as some believe, that your tunes must be crap, so don’t ever take such a ridiculous notion on board—on an internet FLOODED with music no listens rarely has anything to do with the quality of your music, your creative talent, is almost always down to the fact that the right audience can’t find your music, because finding it is now as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack!
>
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE, EVERYTHING FOR SOMEONE!
>
For diversity and consistency, I am not hesitant in saying my Soundcloud pages house the most inventive creations on here. There are others making fabulous tunes, but no one is more prolific while maintaining a high standard of pole to pole invention, and that applies to the lyrics too. I won't escape obscurity and oblivion, but that proves nothing, the internet is way, way, WAY overcrowded with unsigned music, way too much mediocre stuff, which obscure anything exceptional out there; the wood hidden away behind lots and lots and LOTS of trees, and no one has the time to look for needles in haystacks, to find a diamond in the rough, it's just way too big a task, not humanely possible!

INVENTIVE, AUTHENTIC, DIVERSE MUSIC, INVENTIVE, AUTHENTIC, IMAGINATIVE LYRICS, but those are the last things the vast majority of listeners are looking for these days!
>
Me, I'm awestruck by musicians who can't be pigeonholed, who don't conform to any borders, who don't think about which direction each new creation will take, they just go wherever that creativity takes them; pure, on the fly, innovation, imperfect but 100% authentic, as far a way from manufactured, recipe book, regurgitation, as it is possible to get, totally unforced, inspirational and way, way, WAY outside the box! There ought to be a place for such creativity, there was at one time, but a mercenary music industry put an end to that, leaving us with a situation where those who deserve the most adoration for the talents receive the least!
>
Will this ever change, will a yearning for TRUE underground, creativity unique to the individual, ever return, or has the spoon-feeding gone to far this time, is its grip so vicelike nothing can break it!
>
I make #INVISIBLE music, perhaps it feels that way to you too!
#Overlooked, #Underrated, Dismissed Without A Listen!
>
When Soundclouders follow me or click like without leaving feedback, what is it they are hoping for? That I come listen to their tunes and heap praise on them, what? I mean really, what is the point of following someone, what is the point of liking one of their tunes, if you don't actual think they are deserving of feedback, if you don't think the tunes are as good as what you do???

EXPLODING THE MYTH THAT UNSIGNED IS UNSIGNED BECAUSE IT’S INFERIOR TO SIGNED MUSIC!

>
UNTIL this MYTH is blown out of the water we don’t have a cat in hells chance of breaking through. #TheMyth  is the BIGGEST obstacle that stands in our way, it is the FIRST hurdle we must get over, it is the message that should be going #VIRAL, it’s down to each & every one of you to make that happen!
>
#ExplodeTheMyth
>
Listening to just one of my tunes tells you nothing about my creative approach, listening to ten of my tunes will still tell you very little, listen to a hundred of my tunes and the penny will start to drop, but it's only after hearing 500+ of my creations and collaborations that your eyes will widen in amazement! 
However, if you don't have unlimited eclectic taste none of that applies, and the reality is, who, in this world, is going to listen to every tune I've created, no one--if even one tune is heard from beginning to end it's a minor miracle, because sadly, there is a belief that unsigned means inferior, but I've heard enough tunes by the rest of you guys to know that's a myth, that's bullshit, we create some of the most inventive, authentic, imaginative tunes out there!
Give me unsigned, independent and underground music over signed, safe, predictable, recipe book, music any day of the week!
>
I MAKE TUNES NO ONE WILL EVER LISTEN TO!
>
Some musicians & music fans don’t want to hear music from the past because they would have to acknowledge IT’S ALL BEEN DONE BEFORE!
>
Finally come to terms with the fact that I'm PLAYING TO AN AUDIENCE OF ONE, and even I have to FORCE myself to listen!!!
>
My music and lyrics are all about different, but if no one listens no one will EVER know! 
#StevenVellou

I CREATE TUNES ON THE FLY; NO FORMULA, NO PLAN, NO DIRECTION; THEY JUST HAPPEN--I'M IGNORANT OF THE RULES INVOLVED IN THE MUSIC MAKING PROCESS, SO I'M NOT BOXED IN BY THEM, WHICH IS WHY THEY ARE SO VARIED AND UNPREDICTABLE!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Meaningful yet tongue-in-cheek tunes that can’t be #PIGEONHOLED!
Great production ISN'T my forte, accomplished musicianship ISN'T my forte but #UndergroundInvention, #InfiniteDimensions & LYRICS are!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Now I don't personally believe I'm in the same league as #Bowie, other than my lyrics, more often than not, making more sense, but I do think I share his ability to adapt to different genres, and his endless, diverse, creativity, just not quite on the same level.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I'm not proficient/accomplished on instruments, & I have other musical limitations, but most genres come natural to me, and I much prefer having that unforced ability to being highly accomplished on instruments, highly polished on production, or having the perfect voice!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
If I didn't feel I had my own approach, if my music was easy to pigeonhole, I would have quit music a long time ago!
Never been about fame & fortune, just about pushing the boundaries without actually intending to push the boundaries; creativity that's second nature not formula! 
Yes, I want to reach an audience but making money from my music means nothing to me!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
NOT saying I’m THE MOST #talented musician on music promotion sites but I will say I’m one of the most #UNDERRATED! Even so, I would much rather be underrated than overrated!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
