THIS SONG IS SO MUCH FUN!!! Even with heavier lyrics, this song is an absolute blast, Kent! And seriously, whatever you’re doing with your vocals lately, keep it up. Very lush.

When I saw your lyric I thought, 'wow this will be a long song' but you deliver at such pace it fairly gallops by.  Love the production. Good one Kent.

A second edition, if you will, of David's "Angels". I am very grateful to David for trusting me with his music.  You can hear more of his peaceful guitar music

Spittin' Blood

C÷M performing Journey's End live at St. Augustine’s Arts & Events Centre, Brighton 6th May 2022) as part of the show "From Where? To Here" 
(see https://craigwinstanley.online/from-where-to-here/ for further information). For a review of the show, see https://thegmreviewer.wordpress.com/2021/09/18/c-div-m-from-where-to-here/

The voice hasn't recorded brilliantly, but you can hear the saxophonic and flautistic journey of Jon Ogara (@allopenelectrics), who is M to my C...

When time weighs heavy in a distant place
When bygone memories swarm diminished space
When the past’s trodden path dwarfs the future’s trail
When what once shone bright, flickers drawn and pale
When the sweetest taste yields a bitter hue
When all’s grown tired that sparkled new
When you reach in vain for neglected friends
Thoughts turn to journey’s end

Surreal Awake

Lluvia De Estrellas

Rödkålsdansen

This is a song that started with Ian (IPG1 aka Lou) and his amazing vocal stem, of which I really identify with the lyrics. He has a plethora of vocal stems, so if you're interested in making a hip hop song, you did hit him up. He shared this psychiatrist l particular one with Tez (Llanpsych), who put a beat and guitar on it. Tez then sent it to me, and I added the bass and the synth. Then Tez put the solo part in there along with the effects. he mixed and produced it, and an excellent job he always does, too. This is my first foray into making hip hop, though I've listened to plenty. Hopefully there will be more to come.

Purple Microdot (with IPG1 aka Lou, and Llanpsych)

When I was in France with just a guitar I had tentatively planned to get back home and write and record a song with 'as many instruments as i could' instead of the guitar+midi controller approach. This was the one, I guess.


It takes a lot to make me mad
But at ends of days where nothing goes as planned
I know in my heart that this is not my soul

I hate my heart when it gets hot
And even though it takes a lot
To boil up and speak my mind
I curse my curses every time

So here we are all born and breathing
And I just can’t help but dreaming
Of being better, being good enough for you

If I could build us wooden hearts
Fit together like two parts
Of a whole, a perfect space for me to fill your soul

Because all the ones I’ve seen so far
That wouldn’t, couldn’t, shouldn’t start
To love like we know that we should love
Maybe our head had something after all
To let our heart begin to fall
Then look down knowing patient from above

If I could make a wooden boat
Sink or swim, I swear it’d float
And we could put you on the bridge
And sail into the nothingness

If we had our wooden hearts
You’d steer us anywhere to start
I would let you take the wheel
To feel the way we feel that we should feel

Bit I will keep this one all stone and sinew
Blood encased in bones like the one that’s in you
With everything that I’ve done wrong
Because it’s the one that you’ve been counting on

Because it’s the one where I belong

Song a Week 2023 Week 50 - Wooden Hearts

written and recorded may 2013 by andrew salvner (aka pretzels malone)
recorded on 4-track cassette (vocals mixed on audacity)
track 1 – bass guitar and drums / track 2 – piano / track 3 – flute (keyboard) / track 4 – vocals 

I busted out my old yamaha psr300m for this track.  there is something about that keyboard.  i have had it for 20 years.  it is just fun to bang on.

the vocals and keyboard parts are brand new…just recorded them the other day, the bass and drums I recorded a few months ago.  it might be the bass line that I am most proud of.  I got lucky when I recorded it…don’t know that I could play it as well again :)

the lyrics (and melody) are a reworking of an experimental piece i released a year ago.  the original version only used a short guitar loop, and I had always wanted to redo it with more instruments.

the words:
here comes the summer people.  the suntan lotion motorboat people.
here comes the people with boats, they all got ropes on their boats
they'll tie you up with those ropes, while wearing coats on their boats
you gotta keep your head down, they're looking all 'round the town.
they're finding people to drown.  here they come, get down.
here comes the summer people.  the suntan lotion motorboat people
i saw 'em coming up over the hill.  they're coming quickly now, we gotta get out.
