A beautiful , mesmerizing piece. Stunning sound design and great vocals.

Very nice song with great vocals and guitars (also reminded me a bit on an old Tom Waits track) :-)

The Upload-10.8.2018

Well, my good friend Paco dropped me a note to say he had a piece of music to which I might like to try and add something, were I so inclined.  Always a good day when that happens.

Now, I can't honestly recall the precise sequence in which the neurons fired inside my skull to yield the result we have here, but we are where we are as they say.

Don't go looking at me for rationale.

Thank you, Paco, as always my friend, for inviting me to come out to play, and for mastering the end result in the midst of untold techno-horror grief.  I hope your DAW world resolves itself very soon.

Socrates at Sundown

I lie bewildered, here, in my sphere of cubes,
On crushed silk cushions sprawled.
I sketch the cool Palladian dudes
In charcoal, on Aleutian walls.
They think I know what thoughts are theirs,
And beg to trade their graceless airs, 
But I left them there to climb their stairs
Ever downward through Athenian halls.

They say my knowledge is remiss,
The diabolical's back in town.
Seems ignorance is bliss
For this philosophical clown.
I'm seeking emptiness of mind,
That's where I hope to find
That old, old friend of mine,
Socrates, at sundown.

My associate, Plato knows the game
Survives through pretty dialogue
He suffocates but bestows his shame
On city states whose statutes fog
The heads of people in their ranks
Attentive on the Eridanos banks
Dispensing death by way of thanks
As justice shreds its cogs.

Deep mental grasp of social structure
No need to ever write it down
Accused outcast for youth's corrupture
Where the bleeding of democracy is bound
To seek the causal end of time
Of Aristotle and Nietzsche's kind
The men of Athens rendered blind
Killed that old, old friend of mine,
Socrates, at sundown.

Socrates At Sundown (with MidiSound)

The word nostalgia is a learned formation of a Greek compound, consisting of νόστος (nóstos), meaning "homecoming", a Homeric word, and ἄλγος (álgos), meaning "sorrow" or "despair"

NOSTALGIA - ΝΟΣΤΑΛΓΙΑ (432Hz)

I received 5 WAV files from my dear senior, xian3.
 "I wanted a vocal track." I also wanted to know how xian3 makes music.
 Mr. xian3 gave me two phrases with vocals and electric bass, and two sound effects with a mysterious bell.
 The supplementary notes read, "Please bend your intuition as you see fit..." "After trial and error, if you feel that this fits your ears, you may be on the path of inquiry." .
 "When it finishes singing, it takes on a life of its own and leaves me..." was written.
 I obsessively bent the vocals, chopped the bass, scratched the sound of the bell, and made it all by trusting my own instincts.
 This is the birth of my first song with vocals. I can't thank xian3 enough. I had a great time creating. thank you.
  I sincerely hope that there are people who like this song

Little Wolf In The Moonlight

'The Abbott Of Crossraguel Abbey'
In 1570 the Dunure Castle was in the hand’s of Gilbert, the 4th Earl of Cassillis, who had the reputation as a greedy man with a fiery temper. Gilbert’s Uncle had been the last abbot of Crossraguel, and after his death in 1564 the abbey lands passed on to him. This was all to change in 1565, 
when the King appointed one Alan Stewart as the lay commendator to the abbey. This allowed him to gain control over the lands, buildings, and the duties paid to it. Obviously the Earl was not amused at this usurping, and 5 years later after a great deal of political fencing , 
the Earl had Stewart kidnapped and thrown into the Black Vault of Dunure Castle. Here the poor man was roasted on a spit over a well stoked fire, until he agreed to sign away the lands to the Earl. Stewart was eventually freed and outlived the Earl, who was killed after his horse fell on him.

Whether there is any truth in the story is unclear, but the tale lived on in legend. It is said that on dark nights, when the wind blows gently through the ruin, the hideous shrieks of the abbot can be heard, as he is he is roasted alive deep within the Black Vault.
Of course there are two side to this story. The poor Abbott being roasted over the spit on the one hand and his tormentors quite happily watching till they got what they wanted on the other. 
I have attempted to cover both sides of the coin in the musical interpretation.

Sadlark is described in Jack Vance's novel “Cugel's Saga” as an Overworld demiurge who fell to earth  (possibly due to vertigo) and disassociated while on his way to do battle with the demon Underherd at the time of the Cutz Wars of the 17th Aeon.
	To introduce the song and character I use a slightly abrasive steel guitar glissando in lieu of a trumpet fanfare ... for the not inconsiderable reason that I cannot play trumpet.
	The song is constructed entirely of 11-beat measures.


Lyrics:
       Sadlark was a hero who dwelt in the clouds
       his strength was a legend, his manner was proud
       his shield and his sword in battle were weathered
       he carried his armour as if 'twere a feather

       challenged to battle by a demon from hell
       he sharpened his sword and gathered his spells
       when he was ready he rose from his throne
       strode through the door and dropped like a stone

	if you live in the clouds this advice is profound
	watch out for that first step, it’s a long way to the ground


	Sadlark had a weakness, as this story reveals
	it wasn’t his magic or his sword or his shield
	‘twas said of great Sadlark, by all he had known
	while the lights might be on, nobody was home

	if you live in the clouds this advice is profound
	watch out for that first step, it’s a long way to the ground
	watch out for that first step, it’s a long way to the ground

The Eyes of the Overworld
