Fantastic catchy soundtrack..great vocal lyric track..Brilliant guitar work..passionate orchestration..great bass & percussion..excellent mix & recording production!

The hollow, dark, slightly hoarse vocal works well here.

A thousand TV shows warn us not to wander alone in the dark, and here is the evidence that they are right to do so.

Very dark and intriguing.  Nice mix of sounds.

This one started as a collaboration with Cosmic Keanu, but evolved to include my good friend Chris (cgmaness). Keanu gave me the baadass riddim, and Chris added the high vocals and the mix. I played bass, guitar, organ, and slide. I also sung the low melody. this was a true collaborative effort for one of my favorite Radiohead songs. We hope you enjoy it.

IN A DOORWAY
IN THE SHADOWS
AS THE RAIN MUTES
THE NEON SIGNS


HANDS IN POCKETS
OF A SLICKER
MIDNIGHT STRAGGLERS
MEANDER BY

HOLLOW PROMISE
REMINISENCE
LIKE AN ARCING
ELECTRIC LINE

4:00 IN THE MORNIN’
SHE’S AT THE AFTERPARTY
NO ONE IS WARNIN’
SHE SHOULDN’T LEAVE ALONE, NO…

EVERLASTING
I DON’T THINK SO
EVERY BARGAIN
WILL BE BETRAYED

JESUS TOLD ME
I AM SPECIAL
CLOCK IS TICKING
IT’S JUDGEMENT DAY

FADE TO BLACK
SHE’S NOT COMING BACK

FADE TO BLACK
A FRESH MANIAC

Stock crash middle class 
Counterfeit crime of a century
Cutthroat don’t choke
Better him than you on the brink

Cool breeze charismatic
Grave robbing scam of a century
Drill baby thrill baby
Burning up an Anthropocene

It’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony
It’s been a long time since I realized I couldn’t relate
I’ve been craning my neck trying to see if there’s a sign that was meant for me I said it’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony

Bring it back

Pill-poppin priest talkin trash 
Through the crash of a century
Blind luck dumb fuck 
Jamming up the waves on my scene

Flip top shock jock 
Certified creep of a century
I see you don’t know how to read
But you write like you know what it means

It’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony
It’s been a long time since I realized I couldn’t relate
I’ve been craning my neck trying to see if there’s a sign that was meant for me. I said it’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony

Bring it back

Lyrics:
If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

There comes a time in every man's life
When the words won't flow and the melody slows
There comes a time when day turns to night 
And the flame once so bright is nowhere in sight

If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

Please don't go
You'll never know
That every time I clear my mind
You're the only one I find

Disconnected and tone deaf
Emotionally worth less
Wondering what will be left
I fill my life with emptiness

Remembering your touch
I couldn't get enough
Now it doesn't even matter
No it doesn't matter

Cos if he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

Don't stop singing
Never stop 
Never stop

I miss the days / Paploviante
Paploviante: Bass, Composing, Arrangement, Mix, Picture and Mastering
Vocals:  Alley from Ghosthack www.Ghosthack.de
Lyrics:: „I miss the days“

Verse One
Sunday turned into Friday 
I spent 5 days
Hiding
Trying everything to forget you
Trying to get back to my youth

Pre - Chorus
Oh, 
how things have changed
I’ve fallen from grace
I miss the days
When it was just me
Before I met you
Before I got all these wounds

Chorus
you said
I’ll love you always
But always is a promise
That no one can keep
Thought you were the one in my dreams
Guess I’ll just keep fantasizing

Verse Two
Im awake at 2am
In a cold sweat
Cause the bed 
Gets colder and colder 
Dont know what I’m doing
It’s so confusing
Can’t find my footing

I Miss The Days - Paploviante

La Primavera - with Francesco Cartocci

arseny morozov - маколей калкин

A laboratory with an open bar and floating altar. Come on in! 

Here are various solo and collaborative projects - songs, soundscapes, live looped solo guitar improvisations. 

This project used to be called "imaginary friends", but it became too real for that name, as did many of you.

I hope you enjoy something you find here. Do feel free to be in touch, you never know what might happen.  

I also invite you to attend @hypnopompetus, a duo project with the illustrious Cheesemont Paisley-Paisley, and Fictive Sisters, a transatlantic band with  the incomparable Wheelwright https://fictivesisters.bandcamp.com/album/immaculate-distraction.
