Description: "So Long" Electronic music with vocals and guitar,

Great hypnotic arp groove. Guitar works well.

awesome synths, amazing atmo & the vocal is sublime! everything I love about darkwave electronica - so happy to see this on my feed :) the artwork is great too - reminiscent of a still from a Talk Talk video ♥

brillan work John - the layers of arpeggios deliver a fantastic sense of movement - vocals fit inn a stunning way!

sounds like a vintage 808 drum sounds...great synth pulsing too..loved the bass that just glides along the bottom...fabulous vocals...mysteriouos and dark sound..liked that crunchy guitar at 3:17 and that ethereal screaming guitar around 4m...really liked that vocal being up front at 4:17...some reverse f/x..?  Great mix and performances, John!

Great work!  … 🌍☮︎👍🐞🍀2024

Fascinating groove 🖤💎🖤 This takes me somewhere else... love your vocal

So Long

For me dreams are the most common access humans have to their soul and to other realms of consciousness. It is hard to grasp them with words, so I rather let the voice and the melody try to find the way through some scenes of some dreams I had. Many, many thanks to Myckaël Marcovic (@myckael-marcovic) for his impressive knowledge and support mastering the song. He opened me fascinating doors to this totally new field for me - I will try to follow his footsteps in the next songs...

Google translation of the lyrics:

I dream of old friends
about an old city
I often have old fears
In some dark nights, in some dark nights

I sleep close to a beautiful women
and caress her gently
I'm naked and at the mercy
in some dark nights, in some dark nights

Sometimes in dark corridors
in this old town
trapped in constraints
that I make myself during the day, that I make myself during the day

Even in dark corridors
in this old town
trapped in constraints
in some dark nights, in some dark nights

Coming soon...

Dreams in the dark

The epic saga, ‘Land of ZED’ continues! About 1 year ago, Uziel, Stonerjazz and I started a collaborative prog rock style concept album around the concept of ‘Johnny and his Magical Squeezebox’. We’ve been having a lot of fun playing with different styles, breaking all the musical rules, and writing our own soundcloud inspired mythology. 

For the past 3 songs we’ve been working with a new collaborator, Francesca (a.k.a. Zed) who has added a cool new twist to our sound.
And on this track we’re pulling in a fifth artist who contributed an amazing set of lyrics: Jo Richter (a.k.a. Sonic Structures and Silent Stretches). Thanks for joining us!

Lyrics:

Pt. 1

the shining stone
deep in the mountains
the golden glow
brought forth by fountains
raising in moonlight
raising in moonlight
the golden note
created a player
weaving the node
to cross the mire
of red-shifting ire
of red-shifting ire
the jet black stone
deep in the mountains
wailing in woe
brought forth steep chasms
sucking up moonlight
sucking up moonlight
night‘s dim vibration
created a slayer
cloaked in delusion
trouble to sire
with red-flaring fire
with red-flaring fire
oh, flyers beware
the world is on fire
oh, walkers beware
of footing the mire
oh, jonny beware
never to tire
never to tire

Bickering bikers boyish bravado..emboldened they sly and Jellyfish Souls.
To Plant a finicky trickity fine bomb.
in the administrational heart of Zed.
in the mountain's monstrous mouthcave
Where Roy resides and cruelty is King.
For fear of ferocoius felines prowling the ring.
Imposed by the iron imposter this fine will ask
each creature looking more than three feet ahead
to forfeit three loaves of of freshly baked bread.
Those that cannot comply will lose the sight in one eye…

Pt. 2

Crystalizing at caverns edge
Mouth all shining as we make our descent
We outta be... weary and beware
Perhaps more troubles ahead?
Guided ourselves past the terrors
Into starlight shifting patterns
Of stalactites in space underground
We out to be wary and beware
Perhaps in this beautiful world
More troubles...
Ahead?

LYRICS:
In the cool of the Arizona morning
There are no words to say
The sun lights up
The eastern sky
At the dawn…….
Of a brand new day

The tumbleweed is turning
Looking to put down some roots
Maybe it’s just my calling
To have dust ……
All over my boots 

I don’t see all there is to see
I don’t hear all there is to hear
There’s light and there’s shade and something in-between
And the distance …………drawing near

I’ve got dust all over my boots
I’ve got dust all over my boots
I’ve got dust all over my boots
I’ve got dust  …………. all over my boots

The slow and steady beat
Of these hooves upon the ground
Horse and rider as one
And at peace ………
With that sound

I don’t see all there is to see
I don’t hear all there is to hear
There’s light and there’s shade and something in-between
And the distance …………drawing near 

I’ve got dust all over my boots
I’ve got dust all over my boots
I’ve got dust all over my boots
I’ve got dust  …………. all over my boots

Dust All Over My Boots

Another great collaboration with STONERJAZZ! @user-911083679

We considered converting this into a Zed song, but decided it works best as just an extended jam.

The drums were produced with Volca Drum and most of the synths are Minilogue XD. Jeff sent me 3 guitar tracks which are layered here. 2 of the 3 are a bit more subtle and lower in volume.

Thanks as always for listening!

I have been experimenting with sounds since I was really young , when I was about 6 or 7 years old, after lots of pleading, from me, I managed to get my hands on a very old reel to reel tape machine, that everyone thought I was too young to have, and I discovered and loved recording. 
I played guitar and wrote songs in a indie punky band ,toured, made albums and worked in Studios. Now I work from my home studio using synths, groove boxes, guitars and vocals to produce mainly ambient electronic music. I also produce images through photography and  make ceramic sculpture.
