In the bush

Hank Tilbury: ukulele; Martin Kirwan: guitars, bass

It was sometime late last year I started listening to a guitarist from Wicklow, Ireland, whose lyrical touch with traditional Irish melodies hooked me instantly.  Before long, he began posting some of his own improvisations.  These pieces had a much different feel--they were more about texture and instrumental interplay and subtle shifts of mood.  Since then, I've looked forward to every bit of music posted by Martin Kirwan, a.k.a.https://soundcloud.com/martin-k-g.   A lot of you know his work already, but if you don't, get on over there and feast your ears.

It's a real honor to me that Martin took an interest in one of my tunes and filled it out with an arrangement that turns a little ukulele sketch into a solid piece of music.  His guitars and bass take it beyond anything I'd imagined while preserving the excitement I felt when I was playing with the idea.  And he's a real gentleman, too--it's been a pleasure writing back and forth.

I've been fortunate to meet some great musicians out here in cyberspace, and one of the biggest thrills I've had is when one of them does something great with a tune of mine.  You can hear more collabs here: http://soundcloud.com/hanklebury/sets/collabifications/

Dance Me To The End Of Love(cover Leonard Cohen)collab Mabovsky & Lucy Lune

Berlin, Boston, Belfast: Alternative trio The Deltahorse is comprised of members who have never been altogether in the same place at the same time. Although the three members are scattered over the globe the bandʼs rather uncommon sound very much “feels like three guys were in the studio writing and performing alongside one another – music with the appropriate amount of grit, sheen, and sleaze.” (ALEX DANIEL, Earbuddy), and with “mammoth slabs of thunderous bass, sax riffs, and thudding melodies.” (JOSHUA PICKARD, Beats Per Minute / New York). 

The band is spearheaded by Berlin resident and founder Sash, alongside Bostonʼs Dana Colley, former saxophonist of Morphine. The Deltahorseʻs new single Easy Life pushes a brighter tone, directed by the sultry falsetto of singer-songwriter Vadim Zeberg from Belfast, Ireland - a sound probably cool enough to stop global warming. Anchored by Sashʼs fuzzy bass lines, electro-coated beats and Colleyʼs thick, electric baritone saxophone riffs The Deltahorse’s transatlantic sound borders on electronica - sticky as resin and “nothing but intriguing, unlike anything else youʼre bound to come across this year.” (CHRIS KUBAK, Striker Bill / Philadelphia).

When You Wake Up

Original Lady of Fire Poetry
OtisPacific beats and keyboard

She's a B-52

Bigger than the air
She wore her pretty
like a bomb
invading the senses
catwalk legs 
in her death trap heels
She leaves no casualties
just men broken up from
her rampant curves
She's soft and bigger than 
the sky but just as
dangerous...

She's a B-52

C'è poco da descrivere.
C'è solo da ascoltare.

Ah que j'aime flâner
Le soir, le long des quais
Tout Paris s'illumine et me sourit 

Je remonte la Seine
Comme Django ou Verlaine
Le soir à Paris c'est l'Espoir

I am not a musician but music plays a very important role in my creative life! I am an artist/designer and music is my companion and my muse in the long hours I spend working in my studio! 
I am immensely impressed and grateful for all the talented and inspiring musicians whose work graces this Cloud, and I will always re-post sounds that I love (and will listen to again) - knowing that others will enjoy them!
I feel slightly embarrassed and quite humbled when I receive such graceful messages of thanks from artists whose work I have re-posted - after-all, I am the one who is so inspired by the discovery of your brilliant music!!!
So thank YOU!!!
Jools :)
P.S. If you want to see where the music takes me there is a link to my Portfolio site on Behance below!!! 
NEW!! - Thanks for all the great feed-back on my work! I shall be re-launching with a website (shop & archive) ‘KULT-JE’ in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, examples of past and current work are featured on my Instagram (@joolselphick)
Since my heart op in Jan2021, I have had to deal with taking quite a lot of meds which have interrupted my design work - that and moving to Germany in 2020 - and back in 2021 (due to Covid my business plans stalled!) - SO, slowly getting it together…. hang tight!😊

I have an archive of my work to date on Instagram - @joolselphick
