Next stop the future! All aboard for a sensational track that gets the blood pumping.  This project was short sweet and to the point and it knew what it wanted to be early on. Drums and lead from the Synthstrom Deluge, chords and melody from the Arturia Microfreak, arpeggiated bass from the Novation Ultranova. Music video on YouTube

ARE ALTRUISTIC ACTS AS ALTRUISTIC AS THEY SEEM.

THEY ALL STOPPED CARING
THAT’S WHY EVERYONE DIED

COMPASSION IS FLEETING
BECOMES SELF-DEFEATING
PROMISING HOPE
REPLACED BY A BEATING
DESTROYING YOUR WORLD
DESTROYING YOUR HOPES AND DREAMS

FIRST THEY OFFER YOU THEIR COAT
TRY TO FIX WHAT THEY BROKE
BUT THE ALMS ARE A CLOAK
THE EMPATHY, MIRRORS AND SMOKE

ARE ALL PHILANTHROPISTS JUST DOING GOOD THINGS TO PLEASE A SELFISH GENE
CONCEALING THEIR DEEP SEATED PREJUDICE
JUST ANGELS LOOKING FOR A WAY TO PASS THROUGH THE GATES OF HEAVEN
BELIEVING THEY CAN FOOL THE ONE WHO CAST THEM DOWN TO EARTH

THEY ALL STOPPED CARING

DEVIOUS HEARTS TAKING YOU FOR ANOTHER RIDE

THEY ALL STOP CARING version 2

I fly between two paths
above or below
But I'm the one who decides
the course of my destiny

Don't let me be your servant
I don't want a number on my chest
Of this world I reserve
Power makes you wicked

What will be of me
(daddy)
this is how i want to be
I do not regret

the course of my destiny
the course of my destiny


And it's been a long time
And I feel the same pain
Today I went a little crazy
And I don't want your love anymore

Don't let me be your servant
I don't want a number on my chest
Of this world I reserve
Power makes you wicked


What will be of me
(daddy)
this is how i want to be
I do not regret
I do not regret

No Me Arrepiento

It took me a long time to complete this for several reasons. At times, John (or I) would forget the title, but I would tell him I had worked more on it. I liked the words from John, but couldn't find the emotional center. Glad I stayed after it now.

John: lyrics
Edro: arch-top guitar, vocals, octave mandolin, piano

It's a pretty little blacktop
With yellow stripes running long
How i got here's a story
Best served in a song
And you'll say, Lucien
You're a loser
Don't know how you get along

Chorus
I'm broke down
On the side of the road
No place I'm going
Or which way to go
If heaven's a highway
I'm doomed where i stand
End of the road
For old Lucien Ferrand

My life's a story better than Job
It started in a womb
Now this blacktop road
My mom was a saint
Or something real close
She put up with dad
And loved me the most

I been there and done that
Got the shirt to tell
But no one told me
How deep was the well
It's best summed up
By a paramour of mine
Lucien, she said, you're a tough sell

Chorus

If luck was a bucket of mishaps
And my troubles all existed there
Why I'd toss the old bucket in the well
And mayhaps my luck will flare
And head toward a nicer place
On this yellow striped blacktop
Right now, it's about all i can bear

It's true, I'm broke down
On the side of a road
But I know where I'm going
That i can guarantee
And it ain't the hell highway
With a yellow stripe brand
It's just the beginning
For old Lucien Ferrand

Lucien Ferrand (John Eagle lyrics)

Hybrid Forms Of Tranquility - THE CHALLENGE TRACK...Read more....

Springs and autumns in the Panhandle are a mix of bluster and balminess, robins and red buds, falling leaves and falling temperatures, gentle rain and time change; a resetting of the clocks, and maybe a resetting of one's life. This tune considers resetting one's life, rethinking priorities.  Francois Pierre Morin graciously offered to add orchestration enhancing the mood and mystery of the seasons.  His additions are lovely:  https://soundcloud.com/fpmorinstudio/equinox-collab
