I love the guitar sounds on this and the story of the song itself.  Cool tune.

Another great track! Love the arrangement!

Terrific storyline and the music is greatly creative, percussive and full of interesting changes. Well done Dave! Durge

James Bracken cut his teeth as a sideman lending his soulful vibrato and rhythm playing to Ian Hilmer’s Stagefright, an alternative string band from southern MN. The band performed extensively regionally, steadily gaining grassroots momentum circulating live bootlegs but never releasing an album, which ultimately ended the band and each of the members went on to front their own project.  

Several hundred bar gigs later a fortuitous connection with Rochester producer Fires of Denmark led to a productive series of recording sessions documenting Bracken’s expansive catalog and tracking a brand new batch of songs set to be released as Echo Messenger.

J’ai pas voulu entendre depuis le fond de moi
J’ai pas voulu comprendre ce p’tit “je ne sais quoi”
J’ai pas voulu attendre qu’il gagne au fond de moi 
J’ai pas voulu l’ entendre, j’ai pas voulu l’recevoir.

Bébé du fond de moi, j’ai pas voulu l’recevoir 
J’ai pas voulu entendre, j’ai pas voulu l’ recevoir 
Tu sais qu’au fond de moi, j’ai pas voulu l’recevoir
J’ai pas voulu comprendre, j’ai pas voulu recevoir 

J’ai pas voulu d un présent que j’n’méritais pas
Même si t’étais un ange tombé des cieux pour moi
D une autre histoire qui tomberait à l’eau. De là
J’ai pas voulu entendre, j’ai pas voulu recevoir

J’ai pas voulu entendre, j ai pas voulu recevoir 

J’ai pas voulu l’entendre depuis le fond de moi
J’ai pas voulu comprendre ce p’tit “je ne sais quoi”
J’ai pas voulu l’attendre 
J’ai pas voulu entendre, j’ai pas voulu recevoir.

J’ai pas voulu entendre, j’ai pas voulu recevoir 

J’ai pas voulu mais mes deux bras s’ouvraient déjà 
Mon coeur battait si fort, mes yeux ne voyaient pas 
Que si l’esprit résiste, je m’envolais déjà 
J’ai pas voulu entendre, j’ ai pas voulu recevoir 

Je n’ai jamais voulu voir
Que parmi mes fêlures, 
Ta lumière passait déjà…..


                                  I didn’t want 

I didn't want to hear from deep inside me 
I didn’t want to understand this little “I don’t know what” 
I didn't want to wait for him to win inside me 
I didn't want to hear it, I didn't want to receive it

Baby deep inside me, I didn't want to receive it 
I didn't want to hear, I didn't want to receive it
You know that deep down, I didn't want to receive it 
I didn't want to understand, I didn't want to receive 

I didn't want a present that I didn't deserve 
Even if you were an angel fallen from heaven for me 
Another story that would fall apart. From this 
I didn't want to hear, I didn't want to receive 
I didn't want to hear, I didn't want to receive 

I didn't want to hear it from deep inside me 
I didn’t want to understand this little “I don’t know what” 
I didn't want to wait for it
I didn't want to hear, I didn't want to receive
I didn't want to hear, I didn't want to receive 

I didn't want to but my two arms were already opening 
my heart was beating so hard, my eyes couldn't see 
That if the spirit resists, I was already flying away 
I didn't want to hear, I didn't want to receive 

I never wanted to see 
That among my cracks, 
your light was already shining…..

Nose in the showcase 
clouding the fate 
 Counting the days,  
it was a long wait  
Sand in the shoes
 There was … no pain.

 Kicking the stones  
To not return home  
Waiting the train  
Just To smash the coin  
Bleeding knees  
All was … a glee

 Those were the days,  
Those were the nights

 Roll the dice 
 Playing Risk 
 Who’s turn is it.
So purify 
 Wonder dreams
 Like a gleam

 Pride in the pinball 
Watch for the thug 
 Moove the machine  
Control the tilt 
 Look for the way  
The green light… is on  

 Those were the days ,  
Those were the nights

 Roll the dice  
Playing Risk  
Who’s turn is it.
So purify 
 Wonder dreams  
Like a gleam 

 For all was the first time.
 First kiss, first broken heart  
The future didn’t exist 
But time run, run fast.

Those were the days (with The Bird Inside and Nick from The Shire Bairn Project)

If U Love Me - feat 2nick8

"Jamming w/ Jazz Bass" (Edit: Mastered in iZotope Ozone on January 13th, 2025.)

A little excercise that I finished today. I made this track originally some time ago playing a VST bass, but after I finally got a Jazz Bass recently I wanted to try to play and record something with it, and here we go! 

Played by me using sounds from different VST instrument collections (Rhodes V8 Pro electric piano, Native Instruments Komplete Now collection & Abbey Road 1980s Drums, UVI SonicPass collection). The bass was played by me with a Fender American Ultra Jazz Bass (Cobra Blue). 

Sorry about the mistakes with the bass.. But after I sold my beautiful G&L Interceptor bass guitar in the late 1990's it has now been maybe 25 years since I played bass the last time, and I'm practicing:) 

Especially playing with the correct timing and with right & consistent velocities was really challenging. I also actually played the bass line maybe too loud, so had to do some EQ'ing and stuff afterwards.

A song about a long-distance relationship.

MAYBE SOMEDAY (c) JunkHeap Jan 26 2024

She loves him, he loves her.
Living far away from one another due to circumstance.
Occasions where they meet and their love blossoms.
The hardest time is being apart when you so want to see them.

She doesn't have the money, he's flat broke.
Travel seldom happens, but they won't flow apart.
So they speak through their phones;
work hard for the next time when they can hold each other, 
so, so close,
lost in the moment.

Their love it makes them work so much harder,
to live together and share their worlds.
Maybe someday, but not today.
 
The crescendo building 
near Iguazu Falls in Argentina,
that's where he wants to say the words to her.

She dreams of the quiet of an old growth forest in BC, 
let the trees share their wisdom, 
while they stare in each others eyes.
She's not going to lie, she melts when he looks deep.

Br.

Maybe someday.
Sippin’ hot chocolate on a train going to nowhere, 
holding hands...
Sleeping in on a rainy day, making sure not to plan anything, 
so difficult these days.
Their hearts feel, and they can dream.  
It'll happen where they can both meet, and be together,
be together, forever.
Maybe someday.

Their love it makes them work so much harder,
to live together and share their worlds.
Maybe someday, but not today.

uh, uh, uh ohh...

Maybe Someday

GOOD MORNING HEARTACHE** CECILIA AND RICO** (Mastered)

I’ve been on top of the world, and I’ve been down and out
I’ve been wasting time trying to figure it out
And I still don’t know why the world goes around

I made mistakes, and I paid the price
I watched my plans falling through the ice
I found true love, that left me high and dry

But one sweet day, one sweet day
Things are gonna go my way
I ain’t going down that rabbit hole no more
I am gonna pick myself up off the floor

But one sweet day, one sweet day
Things are gonna go my way
I ain’t being held in no spider web no more
I’m gonna pick myself up off the floor

If there’s just one thing, I could say to you
I’d tell you straight, I’d tell you true
When it falls apart, you still gotta see it through

And now you’re there alone, feeling down and blue 
When there’s someone, waiting there for you
I think you know what you’ve got to do

But one sweet day, one sweet day
Things are gonna go my way
I ain’t going into that lion’s den no more
I’m gonna pick myself up off the floor

But one sweet day, one sweet day
Things are gonna go my way
I ain’t going down that rabbit hole no more
I’m gonna pick myself up off the floor

One Sweet Day

Follow the dark, light is not pure
Its absurd, a cure deterring many kills from the hurt
Distilled and working, a systematic decline
You resign from the time your eyes become blind
To the senseless connotations that your mental reflects
Until you speak the latin language with a poor mans respect
Its all a game, nothing is real
Not even the social definition of love that you feel

I appeal to you and try to make a solid case
You follow pace, deface the mask, deny the rape
A matter of fact the dim shadows form your soul
You've got no control as to where your energy goes
Energy flows lava anger let it explode
And corrode the lines their feeding from your head to your toes
Like a puppet they love it making you jump
Until you feel like nothing more than a waste of your lungs
Now you don't breathe let it all go
Suffocate breathe air is no more

I'm in your mind

My core is dead the spark inside cannot persist
I exist only to witness the sense of this bliss
Dismissed as a failure, done, a bitter shit
A heart ripped, let go slip
More am I more I can know your thoughts
Before you know them and expose them
Making me distraught

Lonely defies hurt, the pain is no more
The key to my love lies in dust heart sore
Blame the fact that I'm filled with emotions displaced
I've abandoned all this hope for the cycles to change

'your addiction' 

Scratch Kelly: beats, production, photography
Scotty: lyrics, vocals, guitars 

I loom in the subconscious of your mind.
I won't reveal myself until it's time.
Assume you're well until I come to find
your weakness. Then your ass is fucking mine.
And once I get my filthy hands on you,
you'll have no idea of the things that you will do
to get me into your blood, and when I'm through,
you'll crave my love and I'll be stuck with you. 

Finding it hard to live without my love?
Finding it hard to cope without my love?
Finding it hard to kick your need for my love?
You're stuck, babe, I'm your addiction. 

Consumed by the evils in your mind.
You're ruined by the fecal memories you find.
Your wounds that you can't forget or leave behind.
Resume with your need for my love until you die. 

Finding it hard to live without my love?
Finding it hard to cope without my love?
Finding it hard to kick your need for my love?
You're stuck, babe, I'm your addiction.

your addiction (with Scratch Kelly)

Blow a kiss and I’ll find you 
Find the way to travel through 
Somewhere deep inside the wind
Find a place to start again
I can still smell your hair 
I’m so grateful that youre near 

Call out my name and I’ll be there 
I’ll travel through and the water and air
And if I feel you can not breathe
Set blankets far across the sea 
I’ll lay in wait from stitch to stitch
And drift away on dreams I missed 

Kiss the earth and I’ll find you 
Traveling far with the grays and blues 
Into the clouds I’ll whisper your name 
Promise to you, things won’t be the same 
Seeing you now, knowing your here
Feeling your breath, take you fears

Lyrics:

I can’t believe you're back in the city 
We called our own..
You wouldn’t recognise my number 
When I was calling,  calling on your phone
You said I’m sorry it’s been too long now 
And too many stones thrown 
I changed my number then picked another 
It was a stagecoach to Basingstoke 

Chorus 
So if you wanna get into 
Some real….Real good trouble 
And leave our past behind
Then I’m ready & primed
For real good trouble 
For real good trouble….. Every Time! 

(Every time.. oh baby baby baby... every time!)

2nd Verse
So after Vegas I needed to leave 
I should've worn my heart on my sleeve
Every minute of everyday 
I thought of you and what to say 
I got a job found a place 
And for a while I was the new face.. 
All the great moments that got us through 
Were never the same without You! 

Chorus 
So if you wanna, get into
Some real…. Real good trouble 
And leave our past behind 
Then I’m ready & primed
For real good trouble 
For real good trouble … Every Time!

Every time.. oh baby baby baby... every time..
Real good trouble... 
Real good trouble... 
Real good trouble... 
Every time.. Every time!

Real Good Trouble
