Next To Her (2022)

Lyrics from A Journal of Nonsense by Clay Young & Becky Coleman

Beaver Inn

Eyes on the prize and the latest lies …. he said
Lead us on to the bridge of highs…. he said
Milk and honey, follow the money … …he said
Giving up the ghost of the Sunday roast… … he said

Fool Britannia, selling off the waves
Fool Britannia, selling off the waves

Offering the lamb for the latest scam…he said
And it came to pass, following the ass…he said
Disciples scream as he’s selling the dream…he said
Playing the clown as the people drown…he said

Fool Britannia, selling off the waves
Fool Britannia, selling off the waves

On your side with the mockery of pride… he said
Believe in me and the land of the free… he said
Onward Faustian soldiers march… he said
In the theatre absurd, he doesn’t mean a word he said

Fool Britannia, selling off the waves
Fool Britannia, selling off the waves

C (me): guitars, voice, stuff
M (@allopenelectrics): selling the sax...

Selling The Dream (by C÷M )

A trans-Pacific cooperation at it's best. Josh (Entheogenic Psychonaught) asked me if I was interested in working on a project together. I had a basic idea that he transformed with his amazing drum, bass, organ and guitar wizardry into what you can hear. Many thanks to Josh for giving me this opportunity and for all of his time spent on this. 
It's quite amazing what can be achieved through modern technology. I never imagined being able to work with someone on the other side of the world on a music project and that someone other than my family might hear the result (showing my age here).

With my good friend Dan-DT, who is a master of his musical genre, and his help with his fantastic strings, choirs, piano and not least Clara's beautiful voice to lift this little observation of fairies in the first light of the morning into something that became magical . ;)

Try to feel, experience and see this in front of you.....
When you went out into the morning light in the forest you love to walk in to find serenity, stillness and quietude, you suddenly heard quiet music, and after a few more steps, you saw them dancing and singing there in a clearing in the shimmering morning light. 
The fairies. ;)

To sit down in the soft moss and experience the joy and love they gave you with their music, dance and song, above all the beauty we are surrounded by in our world, and to bring their world into your mind, was an otherworldly experience. And a very strong realization that our earth is the only home we have, and it is our children's future. ;)

My warmest thanks to you Dan, for your friendship, and your magical musicality. You are very much appreciated in my world my friend!

Song18

This is my second collaboration with @cerulean_ascent ... the other one being his response to my open collab last month. Similar to our last collaboration he kind of deconstructed parts of my original stems and put them back together in a new way. The final product contains melodic and drum elements from both of us, I think it results in a really cool fusion of our styles!

Hello and thank you for dropping by.

Thank you very much to everyone who takes the time to listen, like and share my noises. I am extremely grateful. My apologies if I take a little while to respond to those that leave nice comments.

I like listening to music, making simple, tunes when I have time, and generally faffing about in an inefficient manner. Hopefully you might like something on offer here. 

I use a Hinkler Cigar Box guitar (about $30 from Aldi, great fun), a Flying V ukulele, a couple of old keyboards, other bits and bobs, and a Yamaha tenor saxophone.
