Alternative Facts

Di si dolce

Baseball hotdogs and apple pie
He waves the flag likes to hold it high
He says he’s the voice of the common man
He feels your pain and he understands

He eats fast food from a silver plate 
He lives in a compound with a fence and a gate
And he wants you to know that he 
cares about the little people

And he’s dreaming of a better day when the people he hates have been locked away
He says vote for me I’m your man.
I can’t tell you what it is but I’ve got a plan
He says you and me.  
We’re goanna take this country back

Sharks in the water and he’s tossing red meat
And we’re jumping in with both feet
He’s goanna make our country great again
He’s goanna be the second coming of George Washington

He likes to talk about the good old days
When people had values and everyone behaved.
He says my way’s the only way listen to me
There’s no place for you if you disagree
He admires dictators cause they get things done
Some people believe he’s the chosen one
And he wants you to know that he 
cares about the little people

And he’s dreaming of a better day when the people he hates have been locked away
He says vote for me I’m your man.
I can’t tell you what it is but I’ve got a plan
He says you and me.  
We’re goanna take this country back

Sharks in the water and he’s tossing red meat
And we’re jumping in with both feet
He’s goanna make our country great again
He’s goanna be the second coming of George Washington

Sharks in the water and he’s tossing red meat
And we’re jumping in with both feet
He’s goanna make our country great again
He’s goanna be the second coming of George Washington

Take This Country Back

Mystic Wonderland

Cast of characters:
Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur–composition and foundational rhythm guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–guitar solos choruses, mix, and production
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell –electric piano, synth, and intro composition
K2 and the Three [and the Four]-- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–Guitar solo in the verses
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –four string fretless bass guitar
 
This song began with Artur composing the entire skeleton, and recording it against a mechanical beat. He presented it to Josh, who immediately shared it with The Eclectic Collective. Ken first replaced the metronomic beat with a real, rocking drum sound. Josh promptly added his fretless bass to it, to complete the rhythm section. Soon after, JJ added his electric piano magic, including a short solo, to the stew. Once the rhythmic framework was laid down, Stephen got to work on the choruses, coming up with solid, melodic lines for them. Then, it was Tez's turn to light up the verses with his monster guitar. When we had it mostly completed, Artur asked JJ if he'd do an intro to it. JJ came up with the whole psychedelic intro in response. 

  When it was finished, we asked Stephen if he would mix it for us, which he did with his typical mastery and attention to detail. We all really enjoy making music with Artur, and have been fans of and collaborators with him for almost a year now. If you like the sound of this song, you would do well to go check out his page, too, as he has a bunch of gems on there. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Lyrics:

The first step I've made 
had burnt me down without a trace
 Inhaling smoke, I've exhaled you

Suffocating underwater 
I hope I won't go much further 
breathless watching how my world goes upside down 
Suffocating underwater
 I hope I won't go much further upside down

I'm the last leaf, you are the wind - 
strong and cold, soon I'm falling, 
But it's better to be on the ground 
than soaring high and never be found

Aaron Hibell - Levitation (NORDANBOY Remix)

From the Album: "Arrhythmia & Blues" 2024

Lyrics:
My poet's notebook
I sketched with lies
As I lay at your feet
Looking for a transcendental satori
I have a questionable story
You've been warned
Because I have horns

You see, I love the night filth
The midnight silt
No one is coming to save me
You know I have horns
I'm an unreliable narrator
Every character that I've worn
Every bad idea that I've born
Every lover that I scorned
I'm torn from the night
I'm in
A transitionary moment in my life
I have horns

As I lay at your feet
Will you give me something to believe?
I want to get shorn
Because I have horns
No one is coming to save me
Nobody is coming to save me
Nobody is coming to save me...

THE BOY - RIOT OF THE MIND
OUT NOW!
TAP LINK IN BIO & LISTEN!

Please follow me on Instagram and Spotify! Thank you!

This is a cheering song for punks. Everything by myself. Main genres are Punk / Pop Punk. The moods are Energetic, Upbeat. The overall vibes are inspired by The Clash. Simplicity and passionate vocal. The sounds of guitar and bass are inspired by Green Day. I love their lively music. The goal was to make music as open as theirs. In creating, anyway, I tried to make a punk song that is simple. There's nothing difficult about the guitar, bass and drums. I would be really happy if someone heard this song and decided to start a band. The chorus is very very easy to remember! I want the audience to play loud at the party.

Lyrics : 1! 2! 3! 4!

We mustn’t forget about love
I don't need fuckin' rules
I wanna be in the sunshine
I don't ever know your shine

Wooo oh oh oh oh
Wooo oh oh oh oh

There's nothing to fear, nothing to doubt
'Cause I'm in love with you
I like to be higher than the sky
We don't need to cry now

Wooo oh oh oh oh
Wooo oh oh oh oh

We need a new riot
Riot Riot of our minds
We mustn't forget about love
We don't need our fighting glove

Wooo oh oh oh oh
Wooo oh oh oh oh

RIOT OF THE MIND

it's day time,    i'm happy,    free again.
the daylight,   is lovely,    no more pain.
out here,    i'm dancing,    sun or rain.

chorus:         then the sun goes down.
                    darkness does surround.
                    hide do not be found.
                    hush don't make a sound.

the summer,    i love it,    the long long days.
my friends come,    to play,    but no one stays.
then daylight,    starts fading,    they're on their way.

chorus

bridge spoken:    every night i hide in this cupboard, afraid to make a sound.
                             sometimes i hear them, they're all around.

they ask me,    why don't you,    escape this place.
there's a man,    he's scary,    with a hideous face.
if i run,    he's faster,    he starts to chase.

chorus

i'm waiting,    for my father,    to return one day.
i'll ask him,    to help me,    to take me away.
until then,    i can only,    hope and pray.

chorus x 2

Fear of ghosts part two (no escape)

Calm Sea

lyrics:
Just another second before i blow you away
just another hype before this decadence
U r about to be eliminated beyond this fence
u know u don't have any decent defense

That's the condition shit
where all the people spit
the gratefulness that should exist
but got lost from people's fist


Just another war about to begin
that's the people's choice gathered on one regime
U r about to be eliminated beyond this world
u know u don't have any decent kind of word

Now the history repeats itself
just another book from the shelf
just another hit before this demolition begins.

Nomad (feat. Bastacho)

This song was partially inspired by a book I read by James Salter called A Sport and Pastime. I enjoyed it but would not say I LOVED it.

My music composition work and writing is often very "in the moment". It captures my fleeting moods and/or fragments of things percolating through my world and mind at the very moment of writing. This song is indeed a perfect example of that pattern. 

Crumble Like Sand
By David Husted

Try to portray 
a modicum of restraint
Draw the line 
and then abandon it

Sketch an outline of privilege, smells like
Tobacco, sweat and perfume
Penetrate with slow designs
Bitter whiffs of soured minds

Clarify the latitude
Describe the amount of elbow room
Tastes sweet as fruit 
Moored against the moon

Can gold remove the mortal hour?
Brushed against vanities power 
Opportunity smeared 
Against the clean and bared. 

And I am hoping you  can  open MY EYES
In life can love be bought with gold?
Dark fragrance of free  
I fall to my knees, breathe    

little bit of leeway in the design
Indulge the stroke let color's bind
I feel you

To Express the un-expressible (just throw it out)
Expose, the tender flesh of truth (to owe your time)
My throat is hoarse, scraped from screaming  (come sow your doubts)

Woe

“Oui"
“that’s the best right there” 
Downs us both
crumble like sand

“Oui "
“that’s the best right there” 
Downs us both
crumble like sand

Crumble Like Sand

Lost in Hyperspace

poor bastard it’s on your face
the permanent frown
we’ll give it the coup de grâce
the jolly smack down

in the morning… slip away
on the move… going

cracked windshield don’t block the way
to getting around
start picking the weed bouquet
we’re heading for town

in the morning… steal away
on the move… going

cat mother she wrings her hands
just leave us alone
she never did understand
a house ain’t a home

in the morning… slip away
on the move… going
california… get away
gonna move… going

last round up around this place
you dig up the bones
raise canvas for anyplace
the skull and crossbones

Neverending Torment

Neverending Torment (Prod. Felipe)

Three hundred thirty million people in this country 
And we had to pick these two
Three hundred thirty million people in this country 
You’d think we could find somebody new

You say you really want to exercise your right to vote 
But if either of these guys was captain of a boat
You’d be afraid to set foot on that ship
You wouldn’t take that trip

Commercial jet pilots retire at 65
Cause after that age they’re afraid they’ll nosedive.
But there’s no age limit for the president of the USA
It’s perfectly okay

What are you supposed to do when both choices stink
You’ve got two glasses of Kool Aide
You’re not sure which one to drink

They get up on stage and we watch them a debate
Instead of rising to the occasion, they punch below their weight
We keep hoping that one of them will say something profound
But they let us down

They get asked hard questions and their answers are simple
Preventing World War three it’s like popping a pimple
And those budget deficits will magically disappear
We’ll be in the clear

Every four years we’re told that the situation is so dire
It’s like the country’s a giant gallon of milk 
And it’s about to expire
They say a broken clock is right two times a day
You never know we might pick the wrong guy and things might not turn out okay

What are you supposed to do when both choices stink
You’ve got two glasses of Kool Aide and you’re not sure which one to drink
Three hundred thirty million people in this country 
And we had to pick these two
Three hundred thirty million people in this country 
You’d think we could find somebody new

Two Bad Choices

Heat In The Streets

This was a minor hit by David Soul (1943-2024) somewhat 40 odd years ago.  In fact I covered this a couple of years back but I was not happy with the vocals and the recording was put aside.  Lately I decided to give it another try and reworked the whole thing with an altered arrangement.  Just see what you think about it.
Thanks for stopping by.

[LYRICS]
They say maybe dreams are only movies of the mind
 Still I've lived a few
 I'm not a star
 Though in some ways I've made it
 But all these nights away is gonna lose me you
 Thought a lot about it in these back stage rooms
 And I'd leave it all, if you want me to

 #CHORUS#
Some nights, God knows I'll miss the music
 I'll miss the crowds that call my name
 I'd find contentment now
 If I thought you'd just hang' on
 Playing to an audience of one
 
Some nights, God knows it won't be easy
 I'll feel the lights I'll hear the sound
 I'll find a piece in me
 Cuddled up when the evening's done
 Sometimes playing to my audience of one

 
The endless driving, midnight arriving
 The sleeping when you can
 Still worth it somehow just for that lift
 you get when you walk on
 But just to call you up some nights between the shows
 To say "Good-night I miss you" ain't enough I know
 So I'd leave it all if you tell me so
 

I'll find a piece in me
 Cuddled up when the evening's done
 Playing to my audience of one
 Sometimes playing to my audience of one.

Repeat CHORUS

Lost Ritual

Very old and lonely. Just me and a Korg Wavestation playing in the background. I tried here a different equalization from the previously posted Prego a Fundo.

Volta ao mundo. Volta ao nada. Volta ilimitada.
Prego a fundo. Autoestrada. Noite ultrapassada.
Sem passado. Sem futuro. Um salto no escuro.
Adeus plaino. Adeus monte. Bem-vindo, horizonte.
Sem sorrir. Sem chorar. Nada no olhar
Nem partir, nem chegar. Apenas passar.
Marcha-atrás, marcha à frente? É quase indiferente.
No infinito desta esfera já ninguém me espera. 
Volta ao mundo. Volta ao nada. Noite ilimitada.
Nem desejo, nem saudade. Só eternidade...

Petrus Castrus

Volta Ao Mundo

I hold my cards close to my vest
Don’t like to share my political views. 
There’s people out there who poke at me and try to light my fuse
They say we’re in a downward spiral, the world’s spinning out of control
They try to get me fired up, pull me down their rabbit hole

I roll with the punches; I try to do the best I can
The world’s a complicated place and I’m just a simple man
But one thing that I’m a hundred percent certain about
I’m sick and tired all these angry people who like to scream and shout

They say one guys goanna drive us off the cliff, the other one's goanna lead us to the promised land.
And there’s books I have no desire to read, that they say should be banned.
They say it’s bad to be woke, but I’m not even sure what that means
And the reason I’m living paycheck to paycheck is because we have too many drag queens.

I roll with the punches; I try to do the best I can
The world’s a complicated place and I’m just a simple man

All these people trying to shove their views down my throat
I wish I could dig a virtual moat
Encircle myself and live in a cone of silence, that would be nice
I’m not interested in joining a cult
I wish that I had a catapult
So I could take all that stuff they’ve been shoveling and throw it back at them. That would be great.

It took a long time for us to get into this mess
And if you say you have a simple fix
I suspect it’s probably just a bunch of smoke and mirror tricks
Politics is the new religion
But unlike belief in heaven and hell
You don’t need to die to find out if your choices turn out well

SESSION ft. DOCFRITZ & Joerxworx

Ancient people used to believe that the planets were gods that ruled from above.
And if we misbehaved, they’d send thunder and lightning to give us a shove.
They didn’t understand that germs were what caused people to get sick.
They didn’t understand what made the natural world tick.

We have all this scientific knowledge, but we ignore it, we resist.
We live our lives in the moment like gorillas in the mist.
We ignore the dire warnings, we go with our guts instead of our heads.
We search for conspiracy theories and believe them instead.

People who believe that we faked the moon landing in 1969.
People who believe if you get the Flu shot you’ll turn into Frankenstein.
People who believe that the world is ruled by lizards that eat human flesh.
And the reason we exist is to provide meat that’s very fresh.

All this progress that we’ve made.
We’ve travelled so far.
But sometimes it feels like the world’s a circus.
And we’re riding in a clown car.

In the 1600's Galileo said that the earth revolved around the sun.
They put him under house arrest and it wasn’t very much fun.
When science start to challenge the way that everybody else is  thinking.
People with blind faith, they feel like they're on a ship that's sinking.

You strike up a conversation.
You say crazy things with a nod and a wink.
Then you realize the guy you’re talking to.
That’s the way he really thinks.

Alternative facts are like an infection.
If enough people believe them.
We can reach and inflection.

We have all this scientific knowledge, but we ignore it, we resist.
We live our lives in the moment like gorillas in the mist.
We ignore the dire warnings, we go with our guts instead of our heads.
We search for conspiracy theories and believe them instead.

All this progress that we’ve made.
We’ve travelled so far.
But sometimes it feels like the world’s a circus.
And we’re riding in a clown car.
