I turned 65 years old in 2023. On balance, the recordings from my senior years so far tend toward music.

My Audio Autobiography Part 4: Senior Years (2023-present)

"Munchin' on the beetles
It's a tasty treat
Insects on my plate
Yeah they can't be beat
Buzz around in harmony
Livin' in peace
Eat the beetles
Save the world
Let the hunger decrease
With every bite
Let the hunger decrease
With every bite I take
The future becomes clear
Eating insects
My friend
The solution is near
Buzzin' little creatures
They're filled with vitamins strong
We're helping Mother Nature
Singing this feel-good song

[Chorus]
Eat the beetles
Oh yes
We're on a mission
Changing the world
It's a tasty tradition
With every crunch and chew
We're making it into a choice
Eat the beetles
Let's unite
And rejoice!"

This song urges us to consume insects, a good protein source, to improve our ecology while dancing to a compelling EDM beat. It was the first song Patricia Ann Happel and I created with AI. We used Suno.

Eat the Beetles

"It's becoming the norm

In the summer heat
Cicadas all around
They're here to party
Jumping up and down
Invasion of the brood
Buzzing in my ear
But I got a secret
That will make you cheer

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm eating cicadas
Reducing brood invasion
A crunchy sensation
My new favorite temptation
They're swarming in numbers
It's a natural phenomenon
But I'll turn the tables
Make it my anthem

[Chorus]
Buzzin' delight
Cicada's on the menu tonight
Crunchy and tasty
Giving them a fright
EDM beats
Dancing to the rhythm of the swarm
Eat cicadas
Yeah
It's becoming the norm"

Lighthearted tune about cicadas as a delicious appetizer in the year of the largest swarm in the US since 1803. Very danceable! Trish Happel and I created this song with Suno AI.

Cicada Crunch

"(Intro)
Roger Corman, they chanted your name.
Roger Corman, they chanted your name.
Roger Corman, King of the Bs.
Roger Corman, King of the Bs.
You gave us tales wild and free,
From monsters deep to skies unknown,
In your world, we found a home.

Through "Little Shop of Horrors," fear and fun,
A blooming menace, second to none,
"The Pit and the Pendulum," a haunting sight,
You wove our dreams into the night.
With "The Raven" and its mystic lore,
And "House of Usher" by the shore,
Your films, a canvas of the strange,
In every frame, you made a change.
Through "Death Race 2000," a future bleak,
Your daring vision, unique,
From "X: The Man with the X-ray Eyes,"
You showed us life beyond disguise.

(Chorus)
Roger Corman, King of the Bs,
You gave us tales wild and free,
Roger Corman, forever be,
The King of the Bs, in our memory."

An homage to the late, great filmmaker Roger Corman. Trish Happel and I created the lyrics with ChatGPT and the music with Suno AI.

Roger Corman Forever Be

"(Verse 1)
In the twilight of the silver screen,
A legend rose, unseen,
With a heart for tales untamed,
Roger Corman, they chanted your name.

(Chorus)
Roger Corman, King of the Bs,
You gave us tales wild and free,
From monsters deep to skies unknown,
In your world, we found a home.

(Verse 2)
Through "Little Shop of Horrors," fear and fun,
A blooming menace, second to none,
"The Pit and the Pendulum," a haunting sight,
You wove our dreams into the night.

(Verse 3)
With "The Raven" and its mystic lore,
And "House of Usher" by the shore,
Your films, a canvas of the strange,
In every frame, you made a change.

(Verse 4)
Through "Death Race 2000," a future bleak,
Your daring vision, unique,
From "X: The Man with the X-ray Eyes,"
You showed us life beyond disguise.

(Outro)
Now the curtain falls, the final scene,
Yet your legacy remains evergreen,
Roger Corman, forever be,
The King of the Bs, in our memory.
Roger Corman, forever be,
The King of the Bs, in our memory."

An homage to the late, great filmmaker Roger Corman. Trish Happel and I created the lyrics with ChatGPT and the music with Suno AI.

Roger Corman, King of the Bs

This new version has louder chipmunk voices. I wrote the song, sang lead vocal, played piano and other instruments. Ralph Warchol got the drum track from an LP. We altered the speed to create the chipmunk voice effect. That also helped with our perceived instrument playing agility. Ralph played the electric bass and perhaps other instruments, if I remember correctly. I believe this was originally recorded at Faith Chapel Radio Recording Studio in Berwyn (yes, Svengoolie's Berwyn). This dates the original recording because I had access to that studio after I began working there in January of 1981. I released the first version of this song on Jango Radio in 2009.

A version of this tune eventually ended up in my CD "Mostly Acoustic" available here: on.soundcloud.com/UssrPNYRW7yURbou5.

Rachel (Rodent Version)

A version of this song won Best Psychedelic Song in The (2024) Psychedelic Film and Music Festival.

I wrote the song, sang lead vocal, played electric rhythm guitar. Ralph Warchol played a synthesizer of his for the drum track and low end. Perhaps it was Mike Davis's drum track, not sure. A friend of Ralph's, Dan the Man, played the electric guitar solo on this longer version of the song. This was recorded in Ralph's luxurious basement outfitted with his quarter inch reel-to-reel 8 channel recorder probably in very late 1982 or 1983.

Here's where you can hear different versions of this song:

"The time is 12:23, last place I wanna be. 
When will it come?
 I've been waiting for an hour
 And my stomach's feeling sour. 
How late's the train run?

He doesn't know we're up here. 
He'll never guess. 
We're gonna soak him in light. 
Set the coordinates.

When will the train come? When will the train come?
 She thinks she's got me on her pinky. 
She hits me hot 'cause she's so slinky.
 When is it going to come?

The antigrav is on. Engage the brain caress. 
When he starts floating up record the grok he gets.

Good evening Clyde. 
We represent an advanced race of beings
 From a space colony orbiting the Dog Star Sirius.
 You may interpret this as a religious experience
But we want you to know that we are merely
 Manipulating your brain patterns via quantum waves
 To measure for the possibility of intelligent life 
Arising on your planet.

And I wake up on the train. I can't remember my own name.
 When did the train come?”

Clyde Meets the Aliens

If memory serves, this was the second song I ever wrote (the first was "Rusty, My Favorite Dog"). It was 1968 and I was ten years old. I specifically remember that when I heard the Beatles’ “Goodnight,” I thought to myself: I came up with my song first. This long version finishes the song the way I more or less imagined it as a child, with an elongated section that would repeat into a sunny dreamscape. I didn’t have the patience to compose the extension while young but now it’s finished with the dreamscape transformed into a nightmare. Trish Happel produced this version. Here’s where you can hear the earlier version: https://on.soundcloud.com/91WPYHhbsD46ztm99. Here’s a musical sketch: on.soundcloud.com/5XDwwVXA4tihE5em9.

Goodnight Everybody

This track is the sound for my video art piece “The Machines Possessed Me (Abstract v2) Part 1.” The Abstract v1.5 won the Best U.S. Experimental Short award in the July 2023 Austin International Art Festival. You can view this video at https://youtu.be/8o3pu5wE1f0 and https://vimeo.com/435367103.

“Electronic Tonalities,” the source for this track, represented my earliest audio art and improvised electronic music. With this revised version my wife Trish Happel and I have augmented the original digitally. You can hear my original “Electronic Tonalities" here: on.soundcloud.com/JcXNWxZPhZ3EV7zN8.

Electronic Tonalities (Digitally Augmented)

I consider myself a fringe transmedia conceptual artist and have experimented with all kinds of media like drawing, performance, writing, music, painting, moviemaking, game design since I was quite young. I'd love it if you would check out what I've got going here in the sound department.
