It's Gotta Groove

This is a remake of the song "Triumphant" from Jan Schonander, which he released half a year ago on his site at:
https://soundcloud.com/thegats/triumphant
We both thought, that a small portion of guitar and bass would not harm and I thank Jan to trust me to determine the guitar and bass dose finally :-)

If you like this one, I am sure you will also like a further remake we had created a while ago, which had a similar receipt:

Lyrics:
TRIUMPHANT

We can be triumphant
You can be triumphant
We can beat the odds
We can breathe through it

I can be triumphant
I can see the end
I can see all the people
I can feel the love
Feel the love

From start to end
From way down under
Through all the seasons
From doom and gloom to doom and gloom
Such a long summer
Oh it’s been such a bummer
Over the oceans
I feel the love

We can be triumphant
You can be triumphant
We can beat the odds
We can breathe through it

It’s so beautiful
Brothers and sisters
You’re so beautiful
We walk together

From east to west
Far from our best
From the great wall
To the depths of the canyon
Wave after wave
An endless cycle
We walk together
6 ft apart, 6 ft apart
I couldn’t feel number
And it’s still such a bummer
Deep in your eyes
I feel the love

We can be triumphant
You can be triumphant
We can beat the odds
We can breathe through it

I can be triumphant
I can see the end
I can see all the people
I can feel the love

Triumphant

Shoutout to @orriclemusic for the mastering/production. Check out the visualizer I did that goes with the song on my Youtube, the lyrics are all in the bio there as well.

Sonic Haze w/ Orricle

When I hear your name I cough
You've spoilt my life enough
Your vocal chords took off and just got higher
Higher

If I could erase you sure I would
But the memories were good
Its not a bad childhood
But its not mine
Minors beware

CHORUS
If you hear the rumour mill
And the nagging doubts there still
Don your fancy cap and frills
Peeping through the window sill
Controversy served on a dish
You can sue me if you wish
But the scandal tastes delicious if you fish

A very distinct style
I'd spot you from a mile
Its written in my file
That caught on fire
Fire

At the thought of you I retch
I'm doing a nude sketch
So try hard not to letch
To pass the time
Timer

CHORUS

Fish

Creatures and plant life evolve but the worlds vaguely the same
I've a short shelf life
I've been the heir to fortune just in name

Picture a princess
Picture such a beauty as you wish
Though I may confess
I've picked up the most tasty dish

CHORUS
And I will always feel the same through pain and thunder
And I will always feel the same
And I will always feel the same until you cast me asunder
A chance to run dear as I'll always feel the same

Sat at a table staring gormless at your eyes
The best I'm able I'll lift you up into the skies

A voice mesmerising
It suits the accomplished written hand
You are so tantalising
I've a different wish than originally planned

CHORUS

The Same

I wrote this to get over some stuff I'm dealing with and I am learning that I make myself more worried than anyone else does. So join me and say I am not afraid of whatever is getting you down.

I'm not afraid of the big bad wolf 
I'm not afraid of the big bad wolf
I'm not afraid of the big bad wolf 
Who's comin' to get me 
No you can't get me

What big eyes you have
What big teeth you have
You can huff 
You can puff
You can even blow
I'm not afraid 
If the big bad wolf 


I'm Not Afraid Of The BIG BAD Wolf

If You Can Hear Me Let Me Know How You Feel

Sonically, I wanted to make a fast tempoed funk rock track. Lyrically, it has bits of Outkast. Dedicated to Langren Goldstein. *shh*

 "I'd like to thank the Academy...my family (bar those 2 that named their son Kenneth) and you"

Your conformist belief vs 'Simple Man' by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Yeah, I prefer the latter cousin. Yup, asking people for money to go to Canada and going to school while your husband works. You are...truly...mature. What are ya gonna do bout this? Poison me with rat? Here's 2 knives for both of you. 5 second head start. And, both of you still wouldn't be able to reach me in a fight. He is an embarassment to the word 'drinking' and your face is an embarassment to the word 'face'. He's pussy whipped. Your relationship dynamic is pretty obvious. And no, you don't sing better. You 'did' sing better. Now, you can wipe that smirk off your face ya giant pansy. Thanks to you, you've molded a very talented artist with dyed hair into a ... car salesman...
"Well Brian, all the food groups have been represented. All the boxes..have been ticked. The marriage, the kid, the job. Even foreign employment."
Would you rather be a lion or a panda?
"I'd rather be me."
"That's the most psychologically healthy thing I've heard."
It really sounds like someone made a deal with the devil and at the last minute got it...the price was...slow castration.

'Cause I'd kill you. It's real simple. I'd kill you and your ****ing parents would sue me and it would be a big mess and I don't care enough about you to bother.

Only that I didn't put your name on here because...you'd change it...every few years...I think ...Claire suits you more. Trust me, I wouldn't drink the tea I serve you next time you come over. And if I was your husband...I'd drink it. Man, the fees for gigolos must be high these days if you couldn't snag Tom Morello and ended up with ...that.  Sure I have a price too. If you have to ask, it means you can't afford it :) Now that you're a male prostitute that makes you much more interesting. My first question is, "who do you think of when you're fucking her?"
My second question is, "if you're gonna be a male prostitute why not just go into porn?" My third question is, "if you were a porn star what would your porn star name be because Wang is already quite 'porny'." My last question being, do you prefer straight up porn or do you prefer a story line involving you in a suit selling cars?

Good. You've passed the job interview. You should've come to me sooner. I would have pimped you out to better girls.

(Hippy dude) "You still have options man."
(Joe Anderson) "Yeah, jail or Canada and they both suck. I mean I could never come home, so what is it, it's a choice of a 6x4 cell or an endless wasteland of frozen tundra."
(Hippy dude) "Montreal is cool."
(Joe Anderson) "Man, they speak French."
(Hippie Guitarist) "So learn French. Learn French or die."

"You go see how funny John Bender is in 5 years."
I'm still funny.
"I wanna be a criminologist. Catch criminals."
"Because you are one?"
I'll give you that. Very good response. :)
I think suspension was a little harsh. But I forgive you. I mean, hey, if you're gonna interrogate us, I'm gonna be the last to break. I'd want me in a POW camp. :) Only people who don't have great home lives would value friendship that much.
These days I'm just a musician. With a little petty revenge on the side. I think it's over though. I'd prefer to help other people with their revenge now. What if it's just endless retribution? What if people go, how come you get to all out V for Vendetta, Count of Monte Cristo and we don't? It wouldn't be fair. We'll start with my sister first I guess. Hey, prick ex boy friend of hers. Leave her the fuck alone. You better not be a break up via text type of mofo. I also just ran out of people to hate.

"Could really do with that drink Jackson."
*pats shoulders*
"You'll be fine."
*sighs*
"OK"

Nightfall

Time Dilation

This is a good time here.  I've had this idea and this song pretty well done for about a year now but until I started doing a few collaborations lately I couldn't find the right opportunity for it.   

This vocal nic @nic_nic_nic put over it is totally opposite, not even opposite, it's in an alternate timeline from where I saw it going, but when I heard it, I thought it fit in a way possibly too cool for me to understand.  

Lyrics for this one come from a public domain poem credited below:

Afternoon on a Hill

*Special shout out to my brothers in Natt Brus for loaning me this guy and also thanks for all the inspiring kick ass music you guys create.  Love all you guys & keep rockin!

lyrics : 
I will be the gladdest thing
    Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
    And not pick one.

I will look at cliffs and clouds
    With quiet eyes,
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
    And the grass rise.

And when lights begin to show
    Up from the town,
I will mark which must be mine,
    And then start down!

Got some good old fashioned love!
Got some good old fashioned love!
Got some good old fashioned love!
Got some good old fashioned love!

Silent Nemesis In The Mirror

Was happy to participate in another Josh Clary jam!  
This one has an awesome vocal from Steve's Planet and the usual line up brings it here as well with...
Josh on the monster bass
Tez ripping the guitar rhythm and leads
Ken pounding out the beatz and 
JJ making it pretty with those keys. 
I was able to work in the solo in the second half and, with the help of K2 Ken get out a solid production with a nice mix and master.   I believe Tez may have added a bit as well to the post production. 

Basically it was really a true group effort.   Josh is really good with keeping things group focused and having the whole band work within his idea and vision for a song and yet still having the ability to contribute your own unique sounds.

Another fun time with a great group!

Second Floor  - (Eclectic Collective)

This is a song in a style similar to some old Jerry Reed songs.  I grew up with a lot of that music around and I still have an affinity for it.   
Now, having  Jeff sing it and write the lyrics is where the genius comes in haha.  When we were working on the last Smoking Trout New Mexico song I showed the gang some art and it had the Toad in the desert.  Jeff asked me if all the people on the bus licked the toad.  Haha, I said of course what do you think.  
So this is a continuation of sorts of a theme.  Like when you have a character on a show from another show as that same character.   Think Joanie & Chachi or Saul Goodman. The Toad now has a spin off.
I thought he did a great job with the narration style that these songs typically are written with.   And the lyrics speak for themselves. Enjoy!

l was flying down state 95
just ten miles East of Blyth
Hot Rod Lincoln blaring on the radio
My ole pickup truck lt overheated
l had to stop and find some shade
underneath a Palo Verde tree
a blg ole Toad There he spoke to me
He sald "Why don't you give me just a little lick Right here, Right behind my ear

Now you may think lt's a little funny, but l can guarantee
You will thank me ln the end my Friend--

Not wanting to disappoint my new found friend
l took a little tiny lick
and washed lt down with a Beer
After Frothin at the mouth for a little blt
my Consciousness lt took a hit
and headed south ln a flood of light

There are no word that can describe what happened next-
but l can say for sure without a doubt, unequivocally
My brand new Paradigm got tangled up with my Epiphany!!

Music & Lyrics, Vocal, Synth, Drums: Jan Schonander @thegats
Guitars, Bass, Drums: Norbert Meyer @nobsmeyer

This is a track from my soundcloud friend Jan Schonander, which he wrote, performed and released here on soundcloud already some weeks ago.
As he recently asked me, if I could do a N.o.b.S. Version of it, I did not hesitate as I really do like the song.
If you listen to the original, there is a guitar already creating a great atmosphere. 
I wanted to amplify this momentum with my version especially in the second part with heavy rock riffs.

I hope you all will enjoy this and bang your heads to it. It is something for rock obsessed individuals.

Please visit Jan on his site and support him, you will like the music you will find there:

Lyrics:

BREAK OUT OF THIS CAGE
Break out of this cage
Why can’t I hold on to the bars
Is it all in my mind
The weight on my shoulders
Better than that 
More than that
You deserve so much more
So much better than that
Round and round and round…..
Up and down
Round and round
Off the ground
I don’t want to hear a sound
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh….
Break out of this cage
Break out of this cage
Break out of this cage
Why can’t I hold on to the bars
Is it all in my mind
The weight on my shoulders
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh…..
Round and round and round…..
My future
Your future
Our future
It’s all in the past
It’s all in the past
Get off of this circular path
Break out of this cage
Break out of this cage
Break out of this cage
Why can’t I hold on to the bars
