Creep (Radiohead cover)

LYRICS:
Can you feel the lightning covering your skin?
It’s a nightmare but you’re on fire
You wait your whole life waiting for this moment to begin
And now it’s over but you’re not tired

I’m having visions
Infinite visions
The same ones as you
I try not to worry
But I always worry
Until all I can do
Is wish I could stay here
Feeling forever
Before I must go
Wish we could change it
To before we changed it
What did we know?

10,000 eyes and 400 hands
And all of my arms are made of the sands
Of oceans of old that dried up and left
They became the skies and then they all wept
The first time they heard the song by Tom Petty
The one where Johnny Depp plays the rebel named Eddie
The sky was the limit and then it came crashing down

Can you feel the lightning covering your skin?
It’s a nightmare but you’re on fire
You wait your whole life waiting for this moment to begin
And now it’s over but you’re not tired

I’m having visions
Infinite visions
Of something new
You feel it changing
Slowly but changing
About to breakthrough

COMPOSITION NOTES:
The lyrics and vocal melody for the hook in the chorus popped into my head in August of 2010. The last Whartscape festival had just finished and I was doing a residency in the Netherlands that wasn't going exactly as planned, to put it politely.

Whartscape was a DIY festival in Baltimore that I had organized for five years but it was becoming so large in both size and undertaking that I knew it had to be laid to rest. While it had been more successful than I had ever hoped and I booked all my favorite bands to play it over the years, it still felt as if it ended before its time in many ways and when it was all over, I felt a void. In reality that void was probably just the withdrawal from my stress addiction that the Bromst tour caused coupled with Whartscape but luckily the residency I was on took over for that.

Anyway, the hook stuck with me for a while and, in 2013, I tried pairing it with a track I was working on for some Ableton Operator synths and some chopped up tabla drums. The melody fit and so the merger was made.

While I had experimented with many different options, I was without a vocal pattern or lyrics for the verse until July of 2014. Al Schatz, my good friend/sound engineer/member of thesick band Wume, had used the recently purchased label maker to print a sweet 'TOM PETTY' label and put it on the rack of compressors and shit next to my mix position. So I kept thinking about Tom Petty. I took a break from writing lyrics to watch some Tom Petty videos and then (while totally crushing it in 2048) I was just singing gibberish and nonsense when the 'visions' lyrics and vocal melody started to come out. I quickly sketched them out and tried singing them over the track.

I had never sang in that low register before but after trying several others it ended up being the one I enjoyed the most. 

PRODUCTION NOTES:
The vocoder is the internal Ableton vocoder with a blending of several custom soft-synths patches for their Analog synth and one that mimics a mellotron.

The chorus was tracked using a varispeed technique paired with the gender adjustment of the Antares auto-tuner that mimics the changing of the length of throat.  Those two techniques paired together create that surreal sounding female voice that sounds very little like my original voice and nothing at all like my pervious technique of pitch-shifting using my old friend and goto pedal, the Digitek Whammy.

A Neumann U 87 was used for all the vocals including those used as the modulator.

And I Love Her / The Beatles
https://youtu.be/Nm4YlZ3oYsQ

This work was supported by many people in the winter of 2019. The listeners were mainly in various area of the United States. I am very grateful for that. I decided * WINTER 2019/2020 * for this work. I wish you a good Christmas and a good year.

This classic Beatles song is designed to raise the key by a semitone at the stage of the guitar interlude. Some people do not realize that it has been changed the key because it is so natural. I think it's a really attractive and mysterious melody. I developed it and experimented with this recording to see what would happen if I continued to raise the performance of the song by a semitone for each theme. For those who are practicing the guitar, I think it can be used as a basic lesson to aim at playing in any key, whether it is chord stroke practice or melody line practice. 
However,  I know that some people who are practicing guitar can only play the same melody line with different pitches, because the chords are different. If the songs are different, other instruments will perform quite differently. Therefore, even if your performance while practicing guitar is always doing almost the same thing, it is often the case that the listener hears it playing a different performance. What is unfortunate is the fact that you can't grow at all during that time. The problem is that you stay there for years. If you later realize that you were wasting a terrible time, you can't get it back.It's a serious wall for beginners to overcome. Even if you are a skilled top professional guitar player, if you don't pay attention to your condition, it is said that you will be playing only the usual phrases. It is the same that we should always be aware of.If you can't get out of the symptom that the melody you play is almost the same, even if you use different titles for each recording, you first need to realize that you are always playing almost the same phrase.
Such people terribly often don't know or ignore the difference between the Western scale and the Blue note scale. For example, if you add an E-flat sound to the C major scale or A minor scale, and you think it is a blue note scale, it won't cause a catastrophic failure if you are a keyboard player. However, if you are a guitar player, it will be fatal.They are even suspicious of whether they have found a usable scale from the chord progression and are starting to play.Often they do not seem to be fulfilling the important mission of matching rhythm and melody.What's more, it's impossible for a sensitive listener to allow someone to pretend to be a blues player while making a sound unrelated to the blue note scale.To make matters worse, such people do not even master the Western scale enough,many good listeners will gradually move away from the artists who release or spread the works that cannot be called works. We will need to be very careful about that.You may struggle and find someone to pass on responsibility. But that attempt will fail. We all pay laziness and self-satisfaction by ourselves.
Alternatively, some beginners can imitate the performance of a great guitar player, but cannot freely improvise. In general, it is until the early teens that a boy or a girl who is crazy about guitar playing is expected to see the future from the audience by imitating the performance of a genius guitar player.As is well known, copying and covering are completely different acts.That is also a serious wall. In order to overcome this, there is no choice but to accumulate a lot of issues from basics to applications over a long period of time. I would like the recordings shown here to be used as the first step before getting into there in earnest.

Lyrics:
Some of us discover early
We’re not quite like the rest
We are set aside
Set apart
Best to forget
We fight to fit in
But the struggle brings you down
We are the shadows
We blow away like the dust
Always on the move
We embrace our wanderlust
We are the shadows (x2)
Who sees the shadows? (x2)
We go on searching
Traveling down deserted roads
Keep on believing
Some where we’ll find our home
We are the ones who put the questions into souls
But who is deceiving who
When the truth is never told?
Who sees the shadows? (x2)
We are the shadows (x3)
Who sees the shadows
Most try to ignore us
In the hopes we’ll just go away
We remind them of the sins
They hide in the light of day
Never to atone
But fear the sideways glances
Who sees the shadows?
We are the shadows
Fade into the dark
Under the street lights 
See the shells of the broken hearts
We are the shadows (x 3)
We fade into the dark

We are the shadows (Feat. Wild Christopher)

This flavorful recipe for Kung Pao Noodles can be made with chicken, shrimp, tofu or my very favorite….roasted cauliflower! A few years back, while visiting China, Brian and I took a couple wok cooking classes and got a feel for authentic Kung Pao which is the perfect balance between spicy, tangy, sweet and umami flavors. This is my own simplified version that I like to serve with noodles instead of traditional rice. Keep it vegetarian or add meat — it’s up to you.

Breathe deep the gathering gloom
Watch lights fade from every room
Bedsitter people look back and lament
Another day's useless energy spent
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one;
Lonely man cries for love and has none
New mother picks up and suckles her son
Senior citizens wish they were young
Cold-hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colours from our sight
Red is grey is yellow white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion\\

B r e a t h e D e e p.   (The Conover/ Welin Adventure)

This was an experiment to have no previous exposure of the song for the guitar player before the countdown of the recording. 1 take only
It's called winging it.
This was the outcome with Mr. Matt Warnick handling the AX.

PS: my rule was that I could use the first take only to edit a somewhat focused solo together.

I could fall back into those big brown eyes 
I could fall back into your arms
I could trust a woman with hands as soft as yours
I could hold on
I could hold on

I could be calling you from the phone booth just outside of town
I'm sure I'm the worst thing for you now
If you would take me back and let me go on living
I'll show I could hold on
I'm sure I could hold on
I'll show I could hold on
I'm sure I could......

Hang up the phone and follow your heart....

Techno Music is a true therapy. When sunked into a techno ambiance, the organism is forced to adapt itself to it's rythm and frequencies while at the same moment they are modifiying the brain own frequencies causing extended pleasure and extacy.

Welcome to Black Therapy episode 116 presented during Les Weekends Électroniques on Radio WebPhre.com

Black Therapy EP116 - January 20th, 2018

This week for this 116th episode is Wayne Regan aka Blutung a native of Sydney, Australia who was inﬂuenced by music at a very early age...always improvising with any object that would make rhythm, or an interesting sound.

Passionate, but as some might say obsessed, he began collecting vinyl records as soon as he could buy them and, after studying theory at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, began producing his own electronic music, and collaborating with various other musicians.

Drawing on many inﬂuences, particularly those of the 80s and 90s, he began experimenting with synthesisers and drum machines, producing various forms of electronic music; from industrial, ambient techno to drum & bass, trip hop and nu jazz, as well as soundscapes for vision.

Around the same time, he also commenced a role with one of Sydney's leading music radio stations... a mainstream journey, into a parallel universe, that spanned over two decades, which expanded his knowledge of contemporary music, and where he learnt his craft for mixing - adhering to a simple philosophy of "best tracks and seamless segues".

Not restricted to any one genre he continues to produce a diverse range of original music, which is consistent with his various weekly radio shows.

While best known for his Techno sets, he is equally at home mixing Tech House, Bass & Soul and Psy Trance. An eclectic interest which, undoubtedly, has conspired to inﬂuence his unique style of Techno music today. Please enjoy this journey into Progressive, Psychedelic Techno...

Peeps, please meet Blutung

Blutung - Black Therapy EP116 on Radio WebPhre.com

Hey! Here we are: 2018. Last year was rough. Not just for me, but for several friends and family members. This year's going to be better, especially if Soundcloud stops trying to get me to listen to seriously popular pop music. That's not what I'm here for. 

School has started and I'm presently lost in a new and overly complicated work/school/life schedule, but it's okay because I like waking up at 5 in the morning. That's a lie. Was it convincing? 

Last weekend - or the weekend before maybe - was the quarterly GM48 game jam. Vinnie and Bacon and I came up with a game that was based on the idea of using paper as a tool. We had the idea that the paper being modified would make different noises, and that the noises would all need to work with an underlying track. Confusing, yeah? I was happy, because this is a piece I wouldn't have written under different circumstances. It's patient, and it fights all my tendencies to get bored easily. I actually really like it. 

I won't lie...I haven't yet downloaded the game and tried it. My PC is having some screen issues presently. If you want to try it, it's gm48.net, and the game is called "The Papier Experience." 

I'm making progress - slow progress - on the Letterpress Mighty project, and am hopeful to have a few more tracks done shortly for that. I'm kinda easing in to my new year's resolutions to be more productive in music and stuff. It's gonna be okay. 

I gotta go read some stuff for school now. Hope everyone's well!

FORGIVE

Music and lead Vox by https://soundcloud.com/junkheap
Conover added a few additional background vocals And some orchestration midway through.
A song of sarcasm about leaving and getting away from it all.

I`LL BE THINKING OF YOU - (JunkHeap (c) Jan 2018)

Spending the nights awake thinking it has to be done,
it did her good, it did her good.
Her mood hit the floor; 
found the strength to get away,
it did her good, it did her good.
Turn another corner, leaving the house forever. 
With cynicism in her voice, she said to herself, 
I`ll be thinking of you.
I`ll be thinking of you.

He had enough, hesitated, 
but bought a ticket out of his town, out of his town.
Packed his bags, and got on a plane,
because he really didn`t see a point
of hanging around, hanging around.
He stepped on the plane,
tipped his hat and said,
I`ll be thinking of you.

They both worked their fingers to the bone,
it was a too much to deal with at their age;
Trying to retire, and turn the page.
They got in the car, he turned the keys, 
and they went east, never looking back
and they both said to the past, and laughed...
I'll be thinking of you.

I'll be thinking of you...

I'll Be Thinking Of You   JunkHeap /Conover

https://musiciselation.bandcamp.com/track/i-dont-owe-ya-deep-remix

DeeP. got the vocals stems to "I Don't Owe Ya" from Bitzone and surprised me with this ultra fresh remix. It was a real honor and surprise that he would do this. 

DeeP. also worked with Bitzone and Stone Catcherye  to do this dope electro funk remix of "Deeper" 

https://soundcloud.com/bitzone/deeper

Huge thanks to DeeP. for initiating these projects. 

I think for 2019 I want to focus on some albums with a more consistent sound. I think it would be really cool to work with Bitzone and DeeP., along with some additional other collaborators on full album of similar tracks. 

Happy New Year 2019 all! I wish you all lots of good health, fine community, mega prosperity, huge success, good times, and awesome music!

Couch King: Lyrics and Vocals

Lyrics: 

I’m sick of this world
I’m quick to unfurl
I light up the wick
And picture myself 
In the underworld

There’s many ways to die 
And I give ‘em a try
Each time that I lie
And close up my eyes 
Kapow 
Bak bak

Nobody cares
No one hears my prayers 
All I bear is unfair
I swear that I’ll tear
Your hair out if you speak 
Shut the fuck up

It ain’t just my fault
How I’m under assault 
Blaming is your default 
You pour salt on mistakes 
To try and validate
Your perceived superiority

A piece of advice
And you move on with you life 
I don’t owe ya
A thanks
I don’t owe ya

Get me to see 
My responsibility 
I don’t owe ya
A sorry
I don’t owe ya

This is my demise
Don’t tell me bout my life 
I don’t care if you think 
That you care
I’m aware
That I’m a fuck up

This is how my dream dies 
Don’t tell me to realize 
Who I am 
Cause you think that I am
Someone
That’s not a fuck up

Cause I am fuck up just a fuck up
I am fuck up
A real fuck

Telling me to shut up 
Always telling me to shut up
