U-Intermezzo

Live with all of the pain I've caused
Tattooed permanently on my mind
See what goodness is left behind
I could be a find
Could be yours

Ridicule me I'm a laughing stock
Punish me for all my obvious crimes
We always have the very best of times
Well in my eyes
We're like rock

I swear that I'd give my life for you
Left my heart open on a page
Wait for you till I'm an old age
This is our stage
I'm for you

This chant is for over thinkers
These words are confused and wet with tears
Constantly challenging my own fears
And it appears truth lingers

Chant For The Over Thinkers

Jo Richter @sonic-textures a.k.a. Sonic Textures and Silent Stretches produced a really fascinating soundscape with poetry that he offered as an open collaboration. Here is the link to the original:
https://soundcloud.com/sonic-textures/concatenandus?in=sonic-textures/sets/open-for-collaboration
Here is a link to a version which Stonerjazz @user-911083679 added to. My remix is working from this one:
https://soundcloud.com/user-911083679/song-0049wav
And if you'd like to hear one more iteration of this open collab, here is a great one from Nic: https://soundcloud.com/nic_nic_nic/concatenandus-nic-version 

I was quite fascinated by Jo's poem. See below for the lyrics.  I added the full text back in after chopping up some elements of it to create this soundscape, and when it the words sit on top they line up in some very interesting serendipitous ways.

I also have just released a version with soundscape only and just snippets of words left in the background, in case you'd like to hear without the poem overlaid:

Lyrics / copyright jo richter:
concatenandus - (on the meaning of wind generators in fashion photography)

she kept wondering about all those photographs
that show flowing hair and wide, wind-swept robes
until she understood: those ropes connect halves
of a self that's caught and its dasein-based scopes

what is my real size if it's not epidermical skin?
the reach of my voice? my status, hierarchical clout?
my environmental footprints, global, within?
my life's agenda? some will being lived out?

what is my true reach into psyche, space, time?
which pasts do shape my tribulations and loves?
she thought of herself as a poor poet's rhyme,
as a reflection of life in a stock photograph.

a stranger wave of understanding hit her
when she unfolded into the moment -
she was not singled out, her whole world was with her
she was connected in a well-worn arrangement

of events manifest: she yelled out with joy:
birds nest in my hair, my feet walk the ground
this self tried to bind me, this gravitational ploy
but beyond all that hassle, spins a world that is round

Words & Photographs: Concatenandus Remix with Jo Richter's full poem

Requiem Dance

Verse 1:
Here comes the reading of the last repose
Here comes the feeling that will last with those
Who will take away the better part of me
Who will make the reeling then the harmony

Bridge 1:
White light are you calling me
I need a priest, I need a sign 
Cause Im running outta time
I’ll give my last two cents first
I need to speak and though it hurts
These words are mine, they have some worth

Chorus 1:
If I need ya then I love ya then I hold ya
And there’s nothing left to do, but waiting
If I leave you need remember what I told ya
Then there’s nothing left to do but waiting
Always be kind, tend to body and mind
And in truth you will find your salvation

Verse 2:
Here comes the reading of the eulogy
Here comes the music to accompany
There is a beauty in the mourning style
As the flames burn higher, don’t forget to smile

Bridge 2:
White light are you calling me
I need a priest, I need a line 
Cause Im running outta time
I’ll give my last two cents first
I need to speak and though it hurts
These words are mine, they have some worth

Chorus 2:
If I need ya then I love ya then I hold ya
And there’s nothing left to do, but waiting
If I leave you need remember what I told ya
Then there’s nothing left to do but waiting
Always be kind, tend to body and mind
And in truth you will find your salvation

Refrain:
Requiem dance, dance, dance
Requiem dance, dance, dance
Requiem dance, dance, dance
Requiem dance, dance, dance

TAFFETA | 106

With an analog vibe in mind, and inspired by the CERN collider. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. It first started up on 10 September 2008, and remains the latest addition to CERN’s accelerator complex. The LHC consists of a 27-kilometre ring of superconducting magnets with a number of accelerating structures to boost the energy of the particles along the way.

There are those that maintain that CERN has open up portals to other realms. An interesting possibility at the very least.

TURN TO BURN

It’s getting better 
Getting better all the time
I’ll bide my time
I’m stepping back, it’s not a crime

It’s getting better
Getting better all the time
It’s way too heavy
And when I get my way, their gonna have to pay

When we get there 
I’ll trip and hop
I’ll step and dance
Do the jig
I’ll be singing la la la la la
La la la la la
And when we get there
I’ll trip and hop
I’ll step and dance
I’ll be singing

It’s my turn
My turn to burn
My turn in the spotlight
My turn to shine bright
Time to get what I want
Time to get what I need
It’s my turn
Time to leave things behind
My turn to burn
My turn to burn

When I get there
I’ll scream and shout
I’ll be bursting
Lose myself
I’ll be singing la la la la la
La la la la la
And when we get there
All of us
Both you and me
We’ll all be singing

It’s my turn
My turn to burn
My turn in the spotlight
My turn to shine bright
Time to get what I want
Time to get what I need
It’s my turn
My turn to burn
My turn to burn
My turn to burn
It’s my turn

Turn To Burn

Echo Of You

This song started with Kuba, my Polish friend, sending me a song idea, where he was playing guitar and singing in English. To that, I added bass, slide, mandolin, and piano. I also rewrote the lyrics to give them a better sounding English flow, then sang the high and low harmonies, too. It changed from a song about "waiting for the mountain dew," to "when you dance, the skies are blue." 
  I like finding public domain common melodies in songs, too, so if you pay close attention to the slide, you'll hear me quoting Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in there. 
  I really like Kuba's song ideas and our process together. Speaking of people with whom I like to work, I asked Tez (Llanpsych) to produce and mix the whole thing, even though his instrumental skills are absent from the song. 
  I was going for a European village folk song feel for this one. Hope you enjoy our love song. 
Lyrics:
When you dance, the skies are blue
When you dance, I'll play the tune
When you dance, I want a view 
When you dance, the mountains do
When you dance, you really move
When you dance, I bow to you
When you dance, I see right through
When you dance, I feel renewed

When you sing... Same endings  

The skies are blue when I'm with you
When I'm with you I hear the tune
Oh what a view when I'm with you
The mountains shake I turn to goo
We get around when I'm with you
When I'm with you we're in the nude
We see the truth when I'm with you
When I'm with you I'm less confused

The Mountains Do (with Kuba aka Modern Sound Orchestra, and Llanpsych)

I’m a song-writer who enjoys creating music of any genre.

My son recently introduced me to A.I. and taught me how to do covers of my previously released non-A.I. music. Since I've never considered myself a performer (except playing with worship bands at church or solo-piano at a rehab center) using A.I. is right up my alley.

Since I've  exhausted using my previously released music for A.I. covers, I now compose music in a DAW, rip to a wave file, and make an A.I. cover of this wave file. I then write lyrics to the A.I. music. It takes around 100 A.I. iterations to complete the lyrics and get a style I'm happy with.  

Brief Bio: Lived more than a quarter of my life overseas (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan). Each country gave me an appreciation for different types of music plus probably why I get bored easily in sticking with one genre or another.
