Really beautiful work! Nice embellishments in the rythm guitar. A lot of interesting lyrics to reflect on... “i dont want to live here anymore” resonates in a literal way because im thinking of getting back to new mexico in 2 years

I love the image of the garden growing in the field of graves. Really fantastic alliteration throughout this song with the Gs and Ls.

Really catchy chorus, Kent! I'm sure it will be playing in my head the rest of the day ☺️ 

Really enjoyed hearing this at the open mic Saturday, Kent. Still getting those Matchbox 20 vibes on the chorus and digging it. Sounds pretty good for being a potato - growing those in that garden? ;)

That catches and keeps the attention big time! Very nice!

I shall have to add potato-level quality into my lexicon, you taught me a new word. Really interesting lyrics, full of emotion but just far enough below the surface that it takes some whale watching to really get it.

potato-level XD I love the hooky attitude of "I don't wanna live here anymore". Nice one :)

Really contemporary sounding song this one. I really like the guitar and your lyrics are really engaging.

Love the guitar work - intricate but solid support for a captivating song. Sounding great Kent!

Sun goes up,
Sun goes down,
So I'm told
And I am curled into some place
Of absency,
Weighty,
Sciamachy,
And every face peers  back at me.

You know my whys.
You'd have me believe
That I'm a Matisse, upon my knees.
So I thank the skies
For the bit and bow
In shapes of lullabies that open home.
I will sing you home...

You look so good inside.
Who am I in the colours
That i am twirling through?
Til I lay my horse-drawn eyes on you, my love,
My ears are broken.
You look so good inside.
Liquefied
To the gold that trickles out of you.
So the sun would give her core for you, my love.
Her core for you, my love.
Her core for you, my love.

Matisse

Hi and welcome to the 4th track by "Then She Reaches For The Gun". Huge thanks to all the artists involved. Once again its great to have new artists involved ! Its humbling that so many people want to be part of this madness : ) 

The project’s inspiration is two fold: Firstly its a homage to some of the stuff i grew up listening to like Mr. Bungle and other noisy bastards where anything goes, and often in quick fire succession and secondly it” a chance to work with an never ending stream of talented musicians that i have known for years either in real life Australia or via the Internet. Each track will no doubt change depending on who has sent me what. 

This track is titled This Misunderstanding Suggest Tenderness
 Its a phrase i saw in the comment section on one of Ilaria Boffa’s wonderful Sonopoetry, and from that Ilaria expanded and wrote the poem that opens and closes this work.

This Misunderstanding Suggest Tenderness features 

Ilaria Boffa - Poetry
Primaloop  - Drums/Percussion
Dani Kirby - Piano
Vartch - Voice
Holy ShitShow - Midi Strings
Axel Weiss - Guitar
TexMex Shaman - Talkbox
Chicago Word Brigade - Electronica/Keyboards
Martin Pozdrowicz - Sample Pad
Wüst - Electronica/Keyboards
Me -Midi Woodwinds/Noise/arrangement

If you would like to be part of this ongoing project

The process is simple, I collect a bunch of random recordings from people and then see what i can arrange from it. Nothing subtle here, just huge noisy fun : ) I am open to anyone that thinks they might like to be part of this mess. Drop me a message and i will send you my email. The only criteria is that i wont be using samples from TV/film/other music etc, so just original stuff played on instruments, field recordings, stupid drunk conversations etc. Cheers!

This Misunderstanding Suggests Tenderness

Sorry for all the potato-level quality lately; a bit more settled now and got a non-cellphone approach set back up.

I don’t wanna live here anymore
I got a garden growing
In a field of graves
It’s been a long time coming

Where’d everybody go?
Fuck all this changing
Like a flash of light
You're out of sight

Leaves fall
Through an open door
Least of all
I don’t wanna live here anymore

I’ll forget it for a little while
Fall asleep inside
Don’t wanna live here anymore
I got a garden growing

We’re not as young as used to be
We can’t live like that anymore
And I know you need
To plant seeds

So drive to the east coast
Through the falling leaves
Like a flash of light
Out of sight

Leaves fall
Through an open door
Least of all
I don’t wanna live here anymore

I’ll forget it for a little while
Fall asleep inside
Don’t wanna live here anymore
I got a garden growing

I got a garden growing

寂寞に無機質が鳴く
人影はただの黒いシミか

真っ白い眼にひとつ映り込んだ
花束を持っている様にみえた

あれは　誰か
誰かに　みえた

無常には人影は無く
白い砂　ひとつ握りしめて

SEIZURES - Revenant Jimbo

When you come to the bend
Road carries on
When you think it's the end
Look to the Son
When you move past the weight
Life carries on
And we know He's never late

Lead me on
Lead me on

Looking past all the pain
Road carries on
When the sun turns to rain Look to the Son
He will take the clouds all away
Life carries on
Ands we know He's never late
Lead me on
Lead me on

Lead Me On

CITY OF GOLD

ACCESSION [Early Mix]

this time I used Ableton to elaborate this musical idea, however the first with this daw, which I find very interesting on a functional level. shame about the workflow, but unlike cubase it is definitely designed for a live environment. as a first experiment not bad, I hope it is the first of a long series.
