Incredible progression- solid rock songwriting!

Wow! An outstanding love anthem Dave! Great vocals my friend, and the guitar work is just perfect for this emotional heavy hitter. Such a well crafted rocker with that blend of keyboards and jangly guitars. Great performance! Durge

Yep, what that last guy said!! Love this song Dave!

Good song, and well done: everything in the mix is heard

mint, Dave!  Your usual solid guitar work underpins the song while  your vocals soar and shine! Glad to see you going back and remixing! New Software? New Tech?  New learning!  Sounds like a polished gem!

Really good sound and well put together! Great voice! 🖤

Your sound reminds me of one of my favorite bands from the '80s: Midnight Oil. Great rockin' track, great vocal. Congratulations, Dave.

Might need to turn it up a little:)

I know… if I look away
I’m better off to see…
Time in a different way
And how it should be…
The minutes move so slowly
And sow their seeds…
Morning takes away the darkness
Eventually…

And if…I don’t miss the chance
To take it all in inside
Before walls come crumbling down
And we run and hide…
The hours show so little mercy 
Don’t you see
That we’re given what we need
Eventually…

The hours show so little mercy 
Don’t you see
That we’re given what we need
Eventually…

Eventually

STANDING ALL ALONE - Mar 2014 / Remixed Mar 2023

The days that go by, I sometimes wonder why,
I didn't take you, and be with you.
You knew my imperfections, all on the wall for examination.
Just to be with you...

So many times I think of that day,
where hurtin's in your eyes, and I can't shake it away.
Somehow I've got to move on, 
I've got to prove to myself, that you're not the only one.

and here I stand all alone, once again.  Once again.
and here I stand all alone, once again...
Firing up the engines, to head out and try again.

I remember that side-long look you'd give me, 
and I'd do whatever I could...
just to be with you...
Endless nights, and candle light,
we're just kissing, being together, and now...

Here I stand all alone, once again.  Once again. 
Here I stand all alone, once again.  
Can you hear me?  I want you to hear me.

There will be a day, after all this misery, 
that I can climb back up, 
and not have to think of you.  
That new girl, she'll take my arm,
and we'll walk the streets; her charm,
I that think this will more than do.

But until then...

Here I stand all alone, once again.  Once again.
Here I stand all alone, once again...

Standing All Alone

Spring time (Guitar solo)

Atlanta’s “Bog Witch” and Boise’s “Mystic Tape Deck” announce the release of a new collaborative single, “Dogs of Chernobyl” to mark the anniversary of the Chernobyl Disaster.

Following the April 26, 1986 nuclear accident, the City of Pripyat was evacuated. The residents were forced to leave their pets (including domestic dogs) behind.  

Nearly 40 years after the accident, the descendants of these dogs are still living in the Exclusion Zone and a study is currently taking place. 

Scientists are sampling the DNA of the dogs. Apparently, their DNA is irregular in some interesting ways.

Wendy writes “I couldn’t sleep one night and picked-up my phone to surf when I noticed an article about the radioactive dogs of Chernobyl.  Right away it seemed like a song.”  

Wendy invited Mystic Tape Deck to collaborate with her in creating the sonic pallet for this song, the proceeds from all sales of which will be donated to the Clean Futures Fund. 

The Clean Futures Fund relies upon donations to provide medical supplies, vaccines, and food for the dogs living in the Exclusion Zone.  

Donate $1 or more to the Clean Futures Fund via Bandcamp and receive a download of the single: https://mystictapedeck.bandcamp.com/track/dogs-of-chernobyl

"Dogs of Chernobyl" - Bog Witch + Mystic Tape Deck

The eternal quest for inspiration,starring the inevitable setbacks. 

Searching for inspiration
Sweating blood and tears
Sometimes all information
Just disappears

Easy times in days of youth
I knew the way
Time to face the hard truth
I've nothing left to say

It's all gone away

Nothing left to say

Running down a dead end street
Chasing the muse
Finding more chaff than wheat
Nothing to use

Nothing left but tired old tat
Done the same old way
Pick the lyrics from a hat
No one listens,anyway

It's all gone away

Nothing left to say

Chasing The Muse

Summer's Trail (Bonus Track)

In my own heart

The name JunkHeap came from creating song ideas and leaving them for later, and then picking through the junk heap of ideas to enhance a new song idea.  Explore my discography, find something you like.  

JunkHeap is a solo, rock/alternative rock music project.  Unapologetic, thought-provoking, emotionally raw music for the masses...

I mix/master my tunes at CD Quality level, so if you want it louder use your volume buttons/knob.  I'm trying hard not to be part of the 'loudness wars'.



---

It's about you, the listeners.  I hope you get something out of my songs.  The lyrics are in the song name link.
