Lyrics:

REACTION
I don't like what I see all around
Certain projects are beyond the bound
Sometimes I wish I could come back a bit
in the wheel of time.

I try to find a why
The dehumanization involves you and I
An artificial world full of droning idols
makes me no so quiet.

I can't believe the way we live
A desert in the heart without relief
They're going on, the nous is gone
A crowd of automatons with no real bonds
This makes me cry, this makes me try.

Oh...What to do?
What's going on?
Reaction!
Oh...Me and you
Oh...Come on!
Reaction!

Certain people must stay down to earth
They can't decide your life and death
We gotta get strong, holding on
as much as possible.

I can't believe the way we live
A desert in the heart without relief
They're going on, the nous is gone
A crowd of automatons with no real bonds
This makes me cry, this makes me try.

Oh...What to do?
What's going on?
Reaction!
Oh...Me and you
Oh...Come on!
Reaction!

Classic

Here is me and @enigmacurry 's latest creation!

I sent him a pretty simple song based on 4 stems and he he transfigured it into this awesome jazzy abstract piece.

Miasma - w/ Enigma Curry

I am trying to record my vocals. I made some changes in the original lyrics as well. I hope I will have a good moment soon while being ill to record my version.

Lost On You (Cover in the making LP)

The Tower ( Brownie, Fox & Daniels)
By :This Sound Society 

A song inspired by taking my 89 year mother to The Vintage Boys  Rock n Roll show.
A three piece harmony group backed by a fantastic band.
After the gig my mother reminisced about her own rock n roll days mainly at The Tower Ballroom where she danced the night away with her sister, brothers & friends.
So I thought I would love to create a three part harmony song with a twist of vintage and modern rock n roll thrown in. 
Magic Mike Fox loves a challenge and Nat Daniels is always up for a sing a long with me & Mike . So from basically an acoustic version to this power house. Magic Mike waved his wand and it’s happened. 

The Tower Ballroom was an attraction in Birmingham England which opened to the public in March 1876 and closed permanently in 2017 and was demolished in 2022.
It held 150 years of history and It was located beside Edgbaston reservoir. 
The Tower Ballroom hosted a wide variety of events, including roller-skating, ice-skating, dancing, discos, weddings, boxing matches, theatre, and musical performances including many famous names that graced its revolving stage. 
It was the place to go in the late 50s/60s onwards for the young people of Birmingham to enjoy the thrill of a big live music and dance venue.
Many romances, marriages and divorces were down  to The Tower . 
My own parents meet at The Tower and went on to  have a wonderful marriage.
So I dedicate this tune to my parents and all those stories my mother told me about it and how iconic it was.
It feels like a part of me and I did visit it myself a few times for a night out  usually after yet another refurbished in the 80s/ 90s. 
The picture cover is a photo of the queue for that last ever afternoon dance. Couples who meet at The Tower and got married were asked to attend to give it a good send off before being demolished. 
Would especially like to thank Mike for his patience as always with me and most of all his incredible musicianship, producing & nice guy skills.
Nat for  another awesome vocal performance and the infectious energy she always brings.
Top people are hard to find and I’m eternally grateful to have collaborated with so many on this app and look forward to another fruitful year creating great music with great people.
This Sound Society gives you ….

The Tower 

V1
She looked across the reservoir 
Where she stood for many  years 
The Cupid of this 2nd city
With romance marriage & tears 
And if wasn’t for the tower I wouldn’t be here right  now 
It where my parents eyes meet on a dance floor somehow 

Ch
Come on …let’s  meet at The Tower
What a time to be alive 
Come on …. Let’s meet at The Tower 
walk , bus, tram or drive 
Come on. Feel the power 
Welcome to the Tower

V2
To all them happy endings & tales of the reser  banks
This is our song we are singing to send love with a massive thanks 
She had Bowie, New Order, The Smiths, The Who just to name a few 
From the 50s, 60s, 70s,  80s 90s  what decade were  you 

Finish on a double chorus ..
