This enchanting lil bluesy toe-tappin’ track that I used my best online hobby distiller buddy, Jessie, & his birthday for the inspiration for what came to be SpiritReefin3r..!!! Also, Jesse, hope you thought it was KICK-ASS…!!!

SpiritReefin3r.m4a

The name was a great descriptor that felt as if that would cover what it is that helped shape who I am from who I used to be…

It’s Bionicle Shiiii.m4a

This is probably my most favorite rhythm riff to date, and hope others enjoy it too!!!

Ogre-Bindgnar  bouncy bottomed girl- 12:26:25, 12.28 AM.m4a

This is a track I made way back somewhere around “01-05”, and from my brother lil Travee “peeeeeempster” Darg’s input and feelings on the riff is what forged this name; Esther Melody. Upon playing the parts together that we collab’d on then listening. I was quoted as saying, 
“Bro the only thing beautiful enough to compare with the feeling this gives me is Esther, my Grandmothers name”. To which he IMMEDIETLY said, “Tubbz, my mother’s name is MELODY”!!! 
And so it came to pass… But to lay it down, it was one of those times when I was most CERTAIN all my neighbors were SICK of me trying lead AFTER LEAD from like nine at night until like 6:18 am the NEXT morning, and unable to capture what I felt needed to be on there just wasn’t going to come to fruition, and frustration had taken hold, so instead of hanging it up, or blowing up the whole county that I live in, I said, “THIS IS IT, LAST ONE” and if I don’t get it, I’m scrapping it from my life… And here it is, the last take of about 1000, and I think u will agree that this is truly epic…

Esther Melody.m4a

This one is about the street in the epa superfund site, Smelterville Idaho, the town I was born into,and raised, living at more than a few places there, from many times throughout my life, and the SAVAGES it has produced over the years of my life. Heavy metal mining and precious metal production had nearly wiped all living things with its pollution, but the most tenacious of a BAD ASS breed of people remained, and here’s some audio to help capture the vibe…

Hill Street Savage

The first song I produced with my irig, GarageBand, and my MacBook… Used my phone, and tried recording one riff at a time and sampling it, and this is what popped out….

Hillbilly Metal

This one has the feel, it makes me wanna turn it up and let ‘Er RIP!!!! Day, night, lacking concern for my neighbors noise complaint request(s)…. Out here at Blancho Viejo, I am allowed to suspend guidelines as I see/feel fit…!!! And this one, I DO LET RIP!!!

Man this song was what made me begin to understand composition and engineering… And unbelievably when I showed the track to one of the Hill Street Savages who showed me the definition of sound engineering and guitar tones from when I was in like 7th grade, upon hearing the track for the first time, when it got to the like halfway point where u just hear drums and the midi channel growling, he goes WHOOOOAAAAAA..!!! That was when I KNEW it was really happening… This guy holds one of the ULTRA LIMITED keys to all my music and creativity, and audio engineering, FULL access, whose opinion and ideas about it hold more sway and irreplaceable PRICELESSNESS than anything such as influence, or money, or fame or anything…. When you have something like that, man, you just DONT compromise, and UNCEASINGLY give credit where do, and Mr. A.R. Duhamel, forever will I pay homie homage…!!!

This is a track Dr. Aaron L. Stancek, and his son Jarib wrote while the Doc wasn’t quite  yet a doctorate graduate, and then coming up on six years on Mother’s Day, (actually just shortly after) that I came down to California after seeing my mother what would be the very last time alive, ever grateful my best brotha Riley “writer, author, lover of Jesus Christ, and ALL THINGS BREAKFAST BURRITO” Chapman, became proverbial ANSWERED prayer, making it I way down to Clarkston Wa/Lewiston Id, for visiting Ma and then left to Sacramento to my brothers villa in Rocklin. Before I knew it we immediately began catching up, drinking my first real deal Mecheladas, and shootin’ tha shiiiiii, and we sat down to jam a lil bit, and he sat down, and this is it, (Living) Outside… This is the very FIRST take, (a pearl harvested from prior experience he shared with me) the first take ALWAYS has the creativity and natural beauty that 1,000,000,000 other takes after will be gone forever no matter how you slice it, and the way that when he’s doing his lead, (2nd lead) I do this lil bend in the rhythm that is CAPTURED HERE…!!!

(Living) Outside…

This was a song I was supposed to play at my high school graduation in “97”, but had no way to record the track and endedy up transferring to the alternative high school for savage and savagines from around the Silver Valley, and my first ever brother in the craft showed me this bass riff he and his brother and step-dad had been jammin, and I went all out creative with it and he was so impressed he said “YUMMMMP bro it’s all YOURS man, you’ll end up doin more with it than me…. (The Late Jeremy Mock) 
So, I named it Jeremy, to remember the times baby, and it turned out our flannel-brigade from Hill Street in Smelterville had suffered its first loss…
Jeremy Brown, Mock, and me were best friends from childhood, and Brown ended up doing 20 to life for attempted murder, for the shooting of this dude who was bullying his cousin, and like a match blown out inthe wind, like the whole region you known as life, POOF…. No more….
Then unimaginably Mock overdosed and passed away, and then life was only just beginning to begin the patient blessing of SUFFERING, until about 6 yrs back… I got off ALL opiates, and glory to God for ALL THINGS, He is FAITHFUL, and fulfilled the promise He made me, and I restarted life, and guess who got out….??
HOMETOWN JEREMY BROWN…!!! 
Thence, the TITLE….

Hometown Jeremy Brown

This is the same one as the other but with an acoustic bass I laid over it…

(Living) Outside BASS.m4a

Just a ruff idea of a song I was feeling..!!!

Night Trax on Polaris Peak Rd 3 copy unedited 2.m4a

This was a track that my homegirl just dug the riff, so I layed it down onto digital and here we are…

milady dyer's opus-m4a

My name is Shane Stancik, and I love God, my two sons, and guutqr/music… These tracks come from 40+ years of living life to the fullest, and living hard… Somehow I managed to not only STAY ALIVE, but also use the hard knocks I BEGGED for as fuel to feed the fire inside that allowed me to process all the shiiii a man should NEVER EVER have to accept, but managed by turning the bad into pure uncut crystalline audio expression with a love language that is spoken in musical note arrangements rather than words… I hope to be able to keep composing for not just my two sons, but the entire population of music lovers n metal heads, to help filter out the distraction, and use the feelings and emotion contained in the music to help inspire mankind to delete all the lies and deception and corruption, answering the call of He who has an ear to hear, and the will to ARISE, and not only do whatever task He’s asked, but also to help transform the mess that it’s all become to a higher state of consciousness, but LIFE in general… Made possible by the ones who are able, CAN, and WILL ARISE with all that He has made us…!!! Big love to yall…!!! Thx for caring…
