Two months then I see you, three days then I meet you, why do I feel like i'm such a failure

It feels like I'm living under the water and I need your hand, it feels like I'm living under the water

We're now holding hands and I am happy oh why you seem to be somebody from my nightmares

It feels like I'm living under the water and I need your hand, it feels like I'm living under the water

We are going to see now hear now what I say to you now, I'm going to blow my head and cry

I blow my candles down for you and I'm so sorry, it feels like I'm living under the water

I draw my hands down for you and saying I'm sorry, it feels like I'm living under the water

untitled no.3 (1987)

This my and GMO's @gmo2020 third song together! Similar to the others we've collaborated on, he produced all the drums and percussion, I added the melodic parts, and then he finalized the mix and mastered. This is an especially strange experiment-- the slowest tempo I've ever worked with, 50bpm. We thought the resulting ultra slowed down vibe would fit with the concept of absolute zero, "the lowest temperature that is theoretically possible".

I discovered the image used in the cover art on Wikimedia Commons, uploaded by the European Southern Observatory (ESO)-- it is produced by the artist L. Calçada and represents a view from the surface of Pluto.

Let yoursef go, baby

Let Yourself Go, Baby

Shine On The Surface Of The Water

Love is blind...and maybe a little deaf! A simple, folksy song about listening to someone pickin' a guitar. Sung by Sierra Wolfe, Chris and Shael on guitars and produced, as always, by Shael Wrinch at the Stone Hill studio, Bowen Island...
Lyrics:
My baby loves to play guitar
I know he's never very far
'cause when I hear that Gibson tone
I realize I'm not alone
My baby loves to play guitar
My baby loves to sing a song
and he may sing it right or wrong
He's not the best I've ever heard
but I hang on every word
My baby loves to sing a song
He's just a little out of tune
He's been know to clear the room
but when I see those dreamy eyes
his voice is still my sweet surprise
I'd buy his records by the pound
My feet would never touch the ground
and I may be his only fan
but I'd cheer to fill the stands
My baby loves to play guitar

Lyrics:
Won’t you leave the light on
Never could spy on
Drawn on a lake like with 
A charcoal crayon

Old men rely on 
Days of bygone
Memories traced
to the war in Saigon

Never gonna raise him
Better you forgave him
Shaving with a razor 
From the Barber’s favor

Maybe you could save him
If you forgave him
Betting on red but it’s looking pretty grim

Callin on Eliza
You know she relies on
Petty little gossip
From the corner store

A shoulder to cry on
Simping for the line on
Better get it straight if you’re wanting more. 
Wanting More 

Knowing Eliza
does despise him
Holding her hand when the sun has set

He listens real good
But she thinks he’s a fool
Believing that this is all he’ll get

She’s staying in the friend zone
She’s lovin Lorenzo
Never gonna have that special glow
She’s staying in the friend zone
She’s lovin Lorenzo
Never gonna have that special glow


Won’t you leave the light on
Never could spy on
Drawn on a lake like with 
A charcoal crayon

Old men rely on 
Days of bygone
Memories traced
to the war in Saigon

Never gonna raise him
Better you forgave him
Shaving with a razor 
From the Barber’s favor

Maybe you could save him
If you forgave him
Betting on red but it’s looking pretty grim

Callin on Eliza
You know she relies on
Petty little gossip
From the corner store

A shoulder to cry on
Simping for the line on
Better get it straight if you’re wanting more. 
Wanting More 
 
Callin on Eliza
You know she relies on
Petty little gossip
From the corner store

A shoulder to cry on
Simping for the line on
Better get it straight if you’re wanting more. 
 

Knowing Eliza

Holding her hand when the sun has set

But she thinks he’s a fool

She’s staying in the friend zone
She’s lovin Lorenzo

Love and Friendship
BY EMILY BRONTË
Love is like the wild rose-briar,
Friendship like the holly-tree—
The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms
But which will bloom most constantly?

The wild rose-briar is sweet in spring,
Its summer blossoms scent the air;
Yet wait till winter comes again
And who will call the wild-briar fair?

Then scorn the silly rose-wreath now
And deck thee with the holly’s sheen,
That when December blights thy brow
He still may leave thy garland green.

Love and Friendship. Debra Buesking and Oddrun Eikli.

Volume and space melt in atmosphere. A walk through lost streets or maybe we just momentarily forgot where we are while staring at the power lines cutting across the moon. The 5th track off the 1616 EP: a collaboration between @area-c-1 and @jh0st (originally released in 1991).

The final track off the 1616 EP: a collaboration between @area-c-1 and @jh0st (originally released in 1991).

---------------------------
it's only lately i free those words that you bring, 
i barely hear and blame my ears as you sing. 
it's just that lately i've learned that desire is not flames 

until the hour when the landscape calls, 
i'll hear your voice as the ghosts will call. 
because when you speak, it's just for today 
i'll still be here when your words fall away. 

...surfacing

2 eyes to eyes see me 
2 ears to ears to hear me 
arrive by phone, 2 children 
your hand, my hand, we're wiilling... 
what have we done? 

try and figure 
nothing could be smart 
wake up early, start a new tomorrow 

'there goes my baby' 
i can't close my eyes... 

2 eyes to eyes see me 
2 ears to ears to hear me 
to seek to hear makes us said 
your heart just in time, be careful... 
what have you done?

I'll finish E-Ruizzo project with a conceptual LP album: 4 songs about 'Arctica Point'. I imagined it amid rotation axis, geographic north and magnetic pole, and I located it on dry land !! Then I draw the cover art.

This opening track tells the decision of leaving this annoying present by travelling to that magical place. The following ones tell the trip and life there.

Translated lyrics will explain it with more detail:

EXPEDICIÓN (EL MUNDO SE HACE PEQUEÑO)  /  EXPEDITION (THE WORLD GETS SMALL)

Cansado de vivir en un mundo que se hace pequeño,  /  Tired of living in a world which gets small,
como ratas nos movemos en nuestro agujero.  /  like rats we move in our hole.

Cierro los párpados para no verlo,  /  I close my eyelids so as not to see it,
pero hay demasiadas cosas feas detrás de ellos.  /  but there are too many ugly things behind them.

Con los ojos cerrados veo mis recuerdos,  /  With my eyes closed I see my memories,
veo el presente que vivo y no quiero verlo.  /  I see the present I live in and I don’t want to see it.

Con los ojos cerrados no dejo de pensarlo,  /  With my eyes closed I can’t stop thinking about it,
tengo que ir a algún sitio donde olvidarlo.  /  I must go somewhere to forget it.

Partiremos hacia donde los recuerdos se olvidan,  /  We will leave for where memories are forgotten,
donde el frío congela el dolor de la vida,  /  where cold freezes the pain of life,
donde el hielo y la nieve nos protege del hombre,  /  where ice and snow protect us from mankind,
donde el cuerpo y el alma se purifican.  /  where body and soul are purified.

Tenlo todo preparado para nuestra expedición.  /  Get everything ready for our expedition.
Formemos una expedición ártica,  /  Let’s form an Arctic expedition,
Tenlo todo preparado para nuestra expedición.  /  Get everything ready for our expedition.
Formemos una expedición ártica,   /  Let’s form an Arctic expedition,
formemos una expedición ártica  /  let’s form an Arctic expedition

Ártica…  /  Arctica…
entre el polo magnético y el norte geométrico  /  between the magnetic pole and the geometric north
se encuentra el Punto Ártica.  /  is located the Arctica Point.

Partiremos hacia donde el reloj no gira.  /  We’ll leave for where the clock doesn’t go round.
Partiremos hacia donde el tiempo no pasa,  /  We’ll leave for where time doesn’t go by,
al lugar donde seis meses sólo duran un día.  /  for the place where six months only last one day.

Viviendo en un mundo que se hace pequeño,  /  Living in a world which gets small,
como ratas nos movemos en nuestro agujero.  /  like rats we move in our hole.
Con los ojos cerrados no dejo de pensarlo,  /  With my eyes closed I can’t stop thinking about it,
tengo que ir a algún sitio donde olvidarlo.  /  I must go somewhere to forget it.

Ártica…  /  Arctica…
entre el polo magnético y el norte geométrico  /  between the magnetic pole and the geometric north
se encuentra el Punto Ártica.  /  is located the Arctica Point.
entre el polo magnético y el norte geométrico  /  between the magnetic pole and the geometric north
se encuentra el Punto Ártica.  /  is located the Arctica Point.

Esperar no es lo único que haremos allí.  /  To wait is not the only thing we’ll do there.
Sabes que no es fácil sobrevivir,  /  You know it’s not easy to survive,
cuando no hay nada que te empuje a seguir.  /  when there’s nothing pushing you on.
