This is the second collaboration I’ve worked on with the very talented Mark Spruce (Original Spruce).  

This is a folk song exploring the boundaries between this world and the spiritual world and tells the tale of an encounter with a Robin in a churchyard. 

Lyrics by Mark Spruce
Music & performance by James Whiteman. 

Best with headphones. Hope you enjoy it. 

Take care

Lyrics:

Sky light Grey 

I stood in the church yard
Cold winters day
My back to the beach tree
Sky light grey

On the branch above me
Cock robin perched 
He sang then stared intently 
I returned his gaze

He repeated his song
And looked again
I smiled and nodded
Like we were friends 

I turned so slowly
As he moved to another branch
Eyeball to eyeball 
Repeat performance 

We both stood still
Locked in our game
He moved on once more
To repeat his refrain

I turned one eighty
When he landed behind me
My smile got wider
My heart got lighter
Watching each other
I'm absorbing this experience 

Then he came closer
We had circled the tree
A mystical moment 
This bird and me

You said your father
Would return
In the spirit of a robin
Watching over us one day

As I stood in that churchyard
Lost in that moment
I felt your father 
Came back to say

I'm here, I'm still here
I will always be here

Well... I had fun making it... and now I'm deaf...
I kind of let the end run on a bit but I quite like how it lulls you into a false sense of security and then jump out of your skin when the next track starts.

Was thinking of "unsinkable" ny Raised Fist. 
honestly totally corruptable, since it's easy to play it wrong.
And while we're on the subject, Steven Seagal bird-dogged a battleship 
way back in the 90's from some terris so i you know... what was the question. I havent slept much since.

Incorruptable

The Black Star Experiment is a music producer from Connecticut who creates ambient and industrial music with a dark atmospheric vibe. He has been making music for over 20 years and has been influenced by bands such as Nine Inch Nails, Radiohead, Team Sleep, Pink Floyd, and many others.

The writer and producer started experimenting with a 4-track recorder and a drum machine in the late 90s. He was then introduced to the world of digital audio workstations (DAWs) and began using Ableton Live. He has been using Ableton Live ever since and is a self-taught producer with a deep understanding of sound design and music production.

The Black Star Experiment’s music is dark and atmospheric, but it is also beautiful, melodic, and thought-provoking. The “experiment” is a musical journey into the subconscious and it is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who listens to it.
