The cover photo is a game-play screenshot of a retro-style computer game I was programming and designing by myself a few years ago. Perhaps one day I'll finish that project... OR it will sit on my hard drive never to see the light of day again... I'm just bad at finishing things y'all. Anyway, this new track reminds me of the music on that game and borrows some of the sound samples. Hope you dig it!

LYRICS:

I will create a perfect world, a perfect world
I will create a perfect world, a perfect world
Where nothing gonna get me
Where nothing gonna get me
Where nothing gonna get me
Where nothing gonna get me

I'm gonna live a perfect life, the perfect life
I'm gonna live a perfect life, the perfect life
Then nothing gonna stop me
Then nothing gonna stop me
Then nothing gonna stop me
Then nothing gonna stop me

MY MISTAKE
------------------
I lacked that tenacity you forecasted for me
last week

I lost my grip

the steadfastness and patience
you prayed for
was lost on me
the way pages are lost flinging
from an open case

tattered, worn/leathered
open case
that files away
unanswered questions, as if they never         pile up

my resolute demeanour that
escapes me now
I boasted so gracefully

with rough tongue i do
lick my wounds
and tears i kept for too long
do well to subdue
the promise of your return

I lie with hope every night
leaving myself alone

that determination you thought you saw in my eyes
was certain, daunting anger
hidden rage barking in the voice of hate

so righteous I became;
the director and projector of my pain

when the truth is a story of the choiceless one must
begin again

such a clean-slate you flung at me
all it caught was this ego-stenched
pungent smell of fury

it drips over my every move
like poison to fool
those blessings you shower upon me now
those borrowed tears I’ve used
trying to wipe away my mistake –
my de-robed mind

I AM A FOOL LOVING YOU (Mastering Paploviante)

This is the 3rd song Bitzone, Frawstakwa, and I have worked on together for my CKP page. I wanted this latest track to continue with the electronic hip hop vibe we had established with our previous two tracks.  Bitzone dug into his rich production archive and found a beat 10 years deep that met the criteria. This time I sent the track first to Frawstakwa to switch things up, since the last two songs I had started off. Frawstakwa came up with these deep metaphysical verse and chorus lyrics and I added a literal interpretation with my verse that I hoped would complement his meaning while keeping in theme with the previous two tracks. Bitzone then worked his magic and transformed the track into an electronic hip hop rock fusion. And then for a final surprise, he asked Joerxworx to join in with some futuristic EWI. In the end, I like that this track is different from It Ain’t Looking Good and Trendsetting and I think it points at a possible new direction for the next track we all work on together. 

Thank you for all your listenings, comments, playlists, radio spins, and purchases. The musical team is eternally grateful. 
Don’t loose hope, keep faith in yourself and your community, be creative, and persist.

Lyrics

Oh, this is just great 
Yo, gimme a break 
No, Freudian slip made
So, it’s no mistake
Go, psycho analyze it 
Though, am I insane
In the membrane
Or normal
It’s weird right?
We’re here but so briefly
Mere mortals
Appears our fate is foretold
How unfortunate 
Of course there’s this
Who says we have to forfeit free will
Forget about it
We are forward thinkers 
And forces of nature
Scratch that - supernatural
Look at how we have grown
And evolved
Lets explore
What’s beyond
What is known 
And accepted by all
Be omnidirectional 
Slow, in the fast lane 
Flow, like a mixtape
For, goodness sake
Over and over again 
Face total
Loss of control
Lack of faith
Don’t trip though
Effects cause vertigo
Catch wreck, let ‘em know
Fact check, general 
Search, research
Both the world and the earth
First you learn
Then you teach
Art and culture
To reach out and touch 
All of the people 
Them, no doubt indeed

What difference does it make
If at any given rate
The only thing that matters in the end is too late

What difference does it make
If at any given rate, yo!

Have you ever felt alone
In a place so dark, so vast, so cold

Everyday I pass by
The same lame busted gate 
The same 
Boarded up broken windows and
Old rusted grates
The same
Overflowing trash cans continue to accumulate with a ever-growing stench that won’t abate 
It’s the same
Neighborhood cats talking smack on da crates 
It’s the same
Families falling flat with not enough food on their plates
I’m passin’ by the same
Kids in baseball hats standing wet in wait 
Out there gettin’ rained on cause the bus is running late 
It straight 
Hasn’t changed at all 
What difference does it make
I’m still awake at dawn 
Exerting on 
Getting my debt rate gone
Word is born
What difference does it make
Cause pass generations gone
Still couldn’t pass it on
What difference does it make

What difference does it make 
If at any given rate
Things just stay the same

What difference does it make 
If at any given rate
We keep on playing games

What difference does it make 
If at any given rate
There really isn’t even anything else left for me to say

Add clarity
Split seconds, detailed motions
Shock therapy
City lights and notions
Wandering, wondering… 

Music sticking to my heels
You know just how it feels
I'm wondering, wandering, wondering

If I refuse to sleep
If I refuse to sleep
If I refuse to sleep
If I refuse to sleep
Who's gonna dream my dreams?

(Dream my dreams)
(Dream my dreams)
Is it you?
(Dream my dreams)

I love you, too

I'm wondering, wandering…
Memories sticking to my heels
You know just how it feels, don't you?
I'm wondering, wandering, wondering

If I refuse to sleep
If I refuse to sleep
If I refuse to sleep
If I refuse to sleep
Who's gonna live my dreams?

(Dream my dreams)
Is it you?
(Dream my dreams)

Or is it you?

Savor it, drink it in
Catch your breath, let it sink in
Cough it up, spit it out

Brace yourself, see it through
I see you've got some demons, too
Cough it up, spit it out
Ain't this what our life's about?

So I dance into the darkness
And close my eyes
And improvise

I love you, too

Gotta give it up again for the superb Harry Jacobson and Daniele Petrocchi.  Their guitar and bass playing steal the show on our fusion original, Street Life.  Harry created and plays his chromatic octave theme on the synth guitar and Daniele plays down below with his beautiful sound and taste.  Brilliant guitar playing from each.

Nada (He pensado en la muerte)

First track of a new album where I'll try to be more eclectic, with closer approach to some genres. Experimented on this one over-editing vocal line on the left, and getting midi files out of organic guitar melodies, which I could play with virtual instruments. I hope you'll enjoy a different Ruizzoid shape.

Dedicated to Germán Coppini’s ‘Golpes Bajos’, one of my favorite groups of the Spanish ‘Nueva Ola’.

Lyrics (original/translated):

NO TODO ACABA (JUGUETES ROTOS)  /  NOT EVERYTHING ENDS (BROKEN TOYS)

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba,  /  Make me think that not everything ends,
hay cosas en la vida que no cambian nada.  /  there are things in life which don’t change at all.
Hazme pensar que no estás gastada,  /  Make me think that you are not worn,
que el paso de los años no te cambió nada.  /  that the passing years didn’t change you at all.

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba.(bis)  /  Make me think that not everything ends. (bis)

Juguetes rotos, muñecas olvidadas,  /  Broken toys, forgotten dolls,
la imagen de mi espejo parece cansada.  /  the image from my mirror seems to be tired.
La voz de la noche ya no me llama,  /  The voice of the night doesn’t call me anymore,
me  resisto a pensar que todo se acaba.  /  I refuse to think that everything ends.

Hazme pensar que lo nuestro no acaba  /  Make me think that our thing doesn’t end
cuando despierte por la mañana.  /  when I wake up in the morning.
Hazme pensar en ti con calma,  /  Make me think about you calmly,
hazme creer que te tengo amarrada.  /  make me think that I get you tied up.

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba.(bis)  /  Make me think that not everything ends. (bis)

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba,  /  Make me think that not everything ends,
hazme creer que aún estoy en casa,  /  make me think that I’m still at home,
hazme pensar que duermo entre sábanas,   /  make me think that I sleep between sheets,
hazme pensar que nada cambia.  /  make me think that nothing changes.

Hazme pensar que no todo acaba.(bis)  /  Make me think that not everything ends. (bis)

The Future

Wayfinder is the person that I went through my entire music journey with. 10 years ago we met with the shared interest of sucking ass at guitar, and that turned into spending most of our lives focused on learning music and instruments. Good times <3. Katja is a friend i've known for a long time too, since back in high school. This collab was really nostalgic.

*Black Into Blue*
(Frawstakwa)
we’ve dreamt in the darkness ending with dawn
opening upon vast expanses beyond
the shadows of structures we’re stretching across
intersections of our systems of thought
which should serve to strengthen us all
awakening the sleeping dragon c’mon
I take it we might need to break down some walls
to let in some light clear the air knock it off

(Couch)
I’ve been holdin’ on vision goin’ strong
Days are long not looking forward to the dawn
When the rays are gone sleep can linger on
Eternal rest I’d be blessed ain’t saying sinners wrong 
I can confess but god be my witness 
I never did much harm so why do I feel forlorn 
Manifest the stress of the station I was born
You gave me hope but I was torn pessimistic 
Fellin’ the pressure to be realistic 
That’s a whole lotta haters talking
That’s my inner mocking 
That’s the life generations have been walking
That’s the future for my kids I’ve been hopping I’ve been stopping
You say it’s just me who’s been blocking
Ain’t knocking the pursuit but startin’ negative on the loot
Got me resolute this dream was never true 
For me 
Still heading black into blue 
We’ll see

(Frawstakwa)
if not that then let us pause 
in silent reflection a song
somehow inspiring awe 
black into blue and I yawn
as the eastern pearl of blonde
rises and fires a shot
from where the horizon was born
that single line on the dot
signed sealed delivered and hot
get up give it all you’ve got
we’re only here on this rock
to do what we need to so what do you want?
time for me to stop

(Stoney)
keep your head strong, when light comes, I will meet you where 

the sky will brighten up my dear, 
your eyes will finally see clear, 
outside it's too cold for this fear, 
black into blue, this bruise will heal

is the dream ending here, goodbye to the fear, from cave I appear

the sky will brighten up my dear, 
your eyes will finally see clear, 
outside it's too cold for this fear, 
black into blue, this bruise will heal

Paseo - ft Wayfinder

Lamantinich x Wayfinder - Tomorrow never came

You find yourself in front of your laptop on your desk by your window but it’s neither your laptop nor your desk nor your window.  According to the time on the screen it’s 3:17 a.m.  You look outside.  It’s dark, raining.  You notice that you’re in a city.  You look back at the screen.  A video conference is in progress, and you’re a part of it, but you don’t know who’s who among the nine people on the screen.  Maybe more disturbingly, you don’t know who’s you among the nine people on the screen.  But, you do know you’re… one ninth.  The air around you is dense but you cannot move but you do not try to.  Things too are being said but you cannot hear them but you do not listen… you never listen.  It’s also dark in the room.  Do they see you?  A violin starts playing behind you.

They’re lost on me

They were there before

And I’m still burnin

where did the pieces go?
they were there before….

And I’m still burnin

Queen was looking on you….
… King likes to shiver we know, we know, we know

they were there before…sure I was sure
they were there before

sure i was sure
those pieces on the board

pawns under your toes
all the silence and hopes

and i’m still burnin
psssst…. and i’m still burnin

She’d had her back turned, over the years!
She’s had her back turned, Oh oh!

See the city streets are so crowded

It’s a replay, in a world of walls, its a replay!
Oh oh!

Unrequited Love

“The Talented Miss K” is Skeleton Skies attempt at an ode to the lovesick, trying to imagine their sound closer to the pathos of an Arcade Fire song, having their go at twisting an old synths wrists to see if they can get something out of it resembling MGMT, creating a quirky, danceable song, in homage to some well loved heroes, while at the same time staying true to their very own understated, alt-pop approach.

The song was written while trying to console a good friend after a lengthy relationship ended in betrayal. Reflecting on the feeling of having the ground pulled from under your feet, simple arbitrary everyday moments suddenly being filled with meaning by a wounded mind and a kind of Weltschmerz paranoia setting in. Going on an emotionally excruciating journey, paying tribute to the monumental pain love is able to cause, the song is trying to round the corner to re-evaluate the situation as one of the many sides of life and pushing the friend towards catharsis and regaining his trust in love and life.

Due to the friend being a huge Peter Gabriel fan, the chorus bears a reference to “Solsbury Hill”, serving as an analogy for discovering a new beginning after a bitter end. There are also references to “It’s Amore” in the lyrics, trying to give the drunken, exhilarated, love-struck mind its gloomy counterpart. The title is referencing “The Talented Mister Ripley” as one of the friend’s grievances was that he felt ultimately the relationship had taken all that he had to offer, leaving him feel depleted and bereft of his former life.	 

The song will be released on 15th January 2021 and is part of 10 songs that will feature on Skeleton Skies' debut album "Contemporary Heart" that will be released on 29th January 2021.

I welcome this new year with a HOWWWLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!

______________

I knew it this time & I’m on the run
I hear a shooting gun, a rifle shot and I blow apart
if you aim it at our heart then it’s gonna be a new start
vengeance, when we bare our teeth a little more
anymore it’ll be, more it’ll be in a moonlit mirror, madness laughs with me
I have a drink and a song & I fuck it in a song
in a war time dream madness runs along
Irish heat call a million dead next to me
when iron heels call me, crush me in the street
moon animals gotta move your feet
poor in my head, it’s war in your head or you’re dead on the street
I feel you next to me, I am a moon animal, I feel you changing in my toes up my toes
feel it in my soul in my soul, oh sweet moonshine shine your light on me!!!!
I am a moon animal I feel it feel it in my soul
aaaaaaahwwwwwoooooooooooo!!!!
moon amore one more spin in the moon I am once again
in howling night I’ll ride that music to the sky
and end where I began

Escape Control Delete (Gong) ft. Pablo Valotta Bass and Keys

I spent two years making Punto Ártica album as a whole, and I mostly played my mom’s Spanish guitar in the spare time. This theme and chords got shape with time, without any plan, in some different variations I’ve tried to remember and craft here.

Even a 7/4 vocal section had come up. In the spirit of this new profile, I asked Codi (https://soundcloud.com/noisealter) to adapt my translation of a poem I wrote when my age was about 1/3 than now (see below), and he also sung it with the passion and delivery I was looking for !!

Original poem  /  First translation:

FEBRERO  /  FEBRUARY

Efe de frío, Febrero,  /  ‘F’ for Freeze, February,
tiempo de ocio y ventura  /  leisure and venture time.
Sueño, guitarra, lectura,  /  Sleep, guitar, reading,
paso intermedio.  /  intermediate step.

Tiempo de amigos y risas  /  Time for friends and laughter,
de descanso e ilusión  /  of rest and illusion
de esperanza y ocasión,  /  of hope and opportunity,
muere la prisa.  /  the rush dies.

Febrero de nacimiento,  /  February of birth,
pausa para el estudiante.  /  pause for the student.
Los problemas van delante,  /  The problems go ahead,
estoy contento.  /  I’m happy.

F E B R U A R Y (vocals by Codi from NoiseAlter)

original song

sweet like candy painted pony
how could someone like you want me
temporary bandage trophy
i taste blood and sweat
you owe me

if it's all just a dream if we fall back asleep
i just don't know myself anymore
we just waited too long
close your eyes and it's gone 
i got nothin' left and it shows

starry eyes and crowned in glory
how could someone like you hold me 
temporary baby don't worry 
i'd be dead if words could hurt me

Same Old

This is a song of hope. I want to bring us together, to be open and inclusive, to get over the strident divisiveness of the past four years. If I could have a wish for this album, it would be to have people learn this song and sing it when they come together in a group for the first time. If the whole world could sing it and mean it, it would be my dream. Elyce says, "It's like an anthem."

I AM A STRANGER - song by Elyce & Benjamin Russell (socan) 

I am a stranger - I want to be your friend 
I’m turning toward you, my heart wide open 
And you could make me happy so easily 
Just take my hand, my heart and me 

I am a stranger but I am human too 
And all of my difference will strengthen you 
I’m asking you to join me, then we will see 
A whole new world would be, could be 

Bring down the wall of hurt and fear and pain 
It’s personal, this invitation 
To hope again 

Bring down the wall of prejudice and shame 
Listen to the call to rise 
In hope again 

I was a stranger, but not for long 
We’re making a good start 
Just singing this song 

I was a stranger but I’m not any more 
We’ve taken the first step 
We’ve opened a door

Been listening to Madeon alot during lockdown and his song 'Be Fine' has given me a feeling of hope, so i wanted to do a remix of this song with a tropical feel. Hope you all like it!
