in 2009 I moved into The Rat Palace, a studio in Hobart. Its been the epicentre of so many projects and I have shared the space with some amazing artists of all disciplines. I have hard drives full of jams from this time and will share a few over the next little while as a way of saying farewell to the space. This one is from August this year when myself ( Bass) and old band mates from an outfit called Hexfarm Dane Renshaw (Drums) and Phil Bywater ( Tenor Sax) found ourselves all in the same country for the first time in many years. So we dusted off some musical cobwebs one evening. The photo is of the last Ute load leaving the studio, Intonarumori strapped on the back - not quite sure where the next studio is yet !

Zen, but...

Our volition is limiting most of the time, because it forces us into habitual emotional paths and musical patterns. Mechanical improvisation can be used to counteract this volition.

Lullaby

An electronic composition, sounds created in Pure Data.

Asunder (naviarhaiku556)

[Intro]
Whispers of doubt, echoes of youth,
Caught in the whirlwind, a search for the truth.

[Chorus]
Crash walking – you nailed me again.
Picking scabs – exposing her pain.
Crash walking – I'm shutting down.
Can't stand – their double talking.

[Verse]
"Why do you linger, why embrace slack?"
Judgments thrown like daggers, their words attack.
"Take out the trash," they sneer with disdain so vast,
Yet I rise, unbroken, a phoenix, untamed.

[Bridge]
Pressure mounts, yet I hold my ground,
To the beat of my heart, a defiant sound.
On paths less traveled, my spirit soars,
"Crash walking" through life, where my truth is found.

[Chorus]
Crash walking – you nailed me again.
Picking scabs – exposing her pain.
Crash walking – I'm shutting down.
Can't stand – their double talking.

Crash Walking [Double Talking]

Diamond Sky (2022) Anthology CD1 Track 06

Deep, minimalist ambience for a quiet mind.
Sounds of wind chimes, a temple gong, zither, and the steady rhythm of breathing.
A track for meditation, focus, and inner peace.
