We have had another magic invite from Mamoru, and Jamie and I have had a lot of fun working with him on this fab classic. It came together quite quickly, as we all felt a lot of empathy with the song and Mamoru's arrangement.
When I finished the vocals, I realised I had sung "take a chance" instead of "shake a hand" on the last line of the second verse..lol.. we left it in!
We hope you enjoy listening as much as we did creating it!

Composed by the Trumpeter and Bandleader Joe Morris and originally recorded by Faye Adams in 1953

Lyrics
♾️Kardia♾️
Thanks Jan...
Heart awake,
Warm & safe
Hard to say...
Resonate

The chest in breast
Filled with your best
What it projects
Who it protects
How it perceives
A whole how you'll be
Observe
Make our belief...

Good sphere on the ground
Go roll like webbed sound
Waves walking
Waved walking
Waves talking

Go be your seer
Look around
Go roll like webbed sound
Waves walking
Waves walking
Waved talking
Waves walking
Waved talking
Waves talking
Waves walking and talking

♾️Kardia♾️

Good Golden Ratio receive
Some wonder with symmetries' seeds
As we align this blue space bead
0.618 goes and brings World Peace 🕊️

Good Golden Ratio receive,
With Light for my good family
As we align this house of beings
0.618 comes and brings us peace

Good Golden Ratio receive,
With Light for our good families
As we align these houses of beings
0.618 comes and brings us peace

Good Golden Ratio receive
Some wonder with symmetries' seeds
As we align this blue space bead
0.618 goes and brings World Peace 🕊️

World Peace
Inner Peace


Wrote this after being challenged by my Auntie Jan to write a positive song... So after sucking in what I could. Here it is.

The name Kardia is paying homage to Elpiverse. For most of the day before this song I wished SoundCloud had repeat for the first time. (Eh have since been shown how to repeat 🙈) Her first song is incredible and really warmed my heart. Kardia can mean the heart of your energy in Greek. Or to quote one of the two angels that inspired this piece, Elpiverse, who kindly took the time to leave a lovely comment.

"Kardia has both a literal and metaphorical meaning. It is the organ, but it also represents our emotional world, our deepest self. We use the word in many ways."

Not enough space here for all the sessions notes but sure.. If your life allows and you want to listen to them they are there too.

We had a family bereavement whilst I was writing this. My Uncle Dick passed away. Rest in Peace Dick. I got your back man! He was 77. As a hat tip to that I made the tune 77 bars long. this opened the door to imagining being in the afterlife for the dance part to the end. I've added a further intention to this asking all the passed beings to give us a hand sorting out a birrah World Peace! What harm! It's just a song right? There is plenty of waffle on each version. I'll try and compile it all in one articulate page in another session. At some point we will have another vocal on it so that will be a nice evolution of the idea. I've heard a preview and if you don't believe me when I sing... Wait to be convinced!!!

I guess in summary it is my version of what I think we both believe (My Aunt and Moi) the Universe is. As humans with a physical body, we are beings made of energy that have not yet, as the human race, fully tapped the link between that energy and our consciousness. Intention's positive and negative are integral parts of this belief system and the desired quality of whatever is projected creates your reality because you experience the universe that way. You take control by observing it instead of trying to fit your pre conceived possibly distorted, notions. My Aunt, I believe is the person that I know whom is most connected with her spirit and her whole being. This is reflected back at you when you meet her. Pure Light!

So further... adding the Golden Ratio purposely in the tune may unlock something. Tuned to 432Hz and using 639Hz throughout (Heart Solfeggio)...I'm imagining a sort of whole song cymantics... A dream of course if a proper sound scientist was here but I'm not sure the intentions are completely useless... In a mad universe like ours sure it might hold some truth and be useful to us. That's what next year's album is about. More science backup! Bring it on🎧
How deeply could sound waves effect intention?

Never Tired (Techno Edit)

Never Tired (Techno Edit) [feat. Nanou]

Face Machine inhabits the blurred threshold between the human and the synthetic, where identity becomes fluid and is constantly rewritten. Drifting between melodic techno, underground trance and electro-pop, the album unfolds like a network of unstable selves - mirrors folding into mirrors, names dissolving into signals. Vocals shift between male and female, merging with abstract textures until the human voice becomes something unbound, a mutable instrument suspended between body and machine. Each track carves its own passage through luminous, volatile atmospheres, yet all are tethered by a shared sonic architecture of detuned oscillators, layered melodic counterpoint, and synthesis timbres that breathe with organic motion.

These twelve tracks move through states of emergence and disappearance - memory scattering, identity refracting, presence dissolving into signal. Wordless chants, whispered fragments, and spectral harmonies drift like residues of selves that never fully arrive. Within this landscape, rhythm and texture intertwine: polyrhythmic layers build and collapse, melodic threads blur into complex harmonic tides, and shifting tonalities open portals into new emotional terrain. Face Machine doesn't offer resolution; instead, it lingers in the spaces where perception falters and technology reshapes what it means to exist. It is an album of thresholds and transformations - a meditation on how we become, lose, and reinvent ourselves in an age where even our voices can belong to someone, or something, else.
