weekend spooks and delights!

"I was just thinking about mortality, that one of these days we'll end up a pile of bones. It's a thought for every human being, whether you believe in an afterlife or that when we die, that's it. The thought that all the beautiful things and knowledge and experiences you've been through just end when you end scares me, the thought that when you close your eyes for good, it's gone forever." - Jerry Cantrell

Lyrics:

I believe them bones are me
Some say we're born into the grave

I feel so alone
Gonna end up a big ol' pile of them bones

Dust rise right on over my time
Empty fossil of the new scene

I feel so alone
Gonna end up a big ol' pile of them bones

Toll due, bad dream come true
I lie dead gone under red sky

I feel so alone
Gonna end up a big ol' pile of them

I feel so alone
I feel so alone
I feel so alone

I feel so alone
Gonna end up a big ol' pile of them bones

Them Bones (Alice in Chains Cover)

For me "Shade" is much about feeling lonely and keeping mental health problems for yourself. Afraid of the stigma it might bring.

A big thanx to https://soundcloud.com/stina-m-h for the trumpets and also feedback in the mixing process! <3 

SHADE

I carry wounds, that no-one knows.
I wear a mask in muted tunes.

Feel the silence grow, watch the night fade,
Hiding in the shadows, I’m lost in my own shade.

A Haunted room, no light to trace
In hidden rooms I lose the chase

A haunted road, no guide to trace
in silence I hold what I have to hide.
Yet I still walk in a steady pace.

Feel the silence grow, watch the night fade,
Hiding in the shadows, I’m lost in my own shade.

Feel the silence grow, watch the night fade,
Hiding in the shadows, curse the burden, curse the pain.

Shade

this song is for anyone breaking cycles in their families whilst reparenting themselves. It's a rewarding journey, but sometimes its ok to say its hard being the family glue. xx

I'm so excited to share my latest single, Save the World. I'm really proud of this song and hope it reaches the people who will connect with it. I wrote it many years ago but didn't have the capacity to produce it at the time, I've learned a lot about production and this final version is mostly my own work, with some extra help from a very talented co-producer (Hattie Murdoch) who also mixed and mastered it to perfection. 

I hope the song conveys a message of hope in darker times, and that those who are often made to feel less than (or too much!)...the artists/thinkers/dreamers, the sensitive souls, people who see the world a little differently...are just the people we need to save the world. xx

Save The World - Natalie Lucie

Metanoia is our first single, about breaking free of the systems of control to a higher awareness

Metanoia

Fingerpicked guitar moves like shadows on the wall, breathes in the dark, and a voice half-spoken, half-sung carries you through rooms you shouldn’t enter.

Trust in the Machine is a song about awakening and awareness to the world around us, and how to live within it

Trust in the Machine

Felt for producing some rock, since it was forever since I did it. I used Logic.. (Im more of an Reason user). But happy with the results. Specially the session drummer feature, its very useful.
I hope you enjoy :)


GONE LIKE SMOKE

You pulled me closer, then you let me fall
A whisper of heaven, then nothing at all
Between the real and unreal

Gone like smoke, you leave no sign
Whispers fade, but they are not mine
Reach through the shadows, I hear the call
But there is nothing, nothing at all

You pulled me closer, then you let me fall
Now I am haunted with nothing at all
Between the real and unreal

Gone like smoke, you leave no sign
Whispers fade, but they are not mine
Reach through the shadows, I hear the call
But there is nothing, nothing at all

Fade in, fade out
Call me, shut me out
Hear me, fear me
I am still here, see me

No sound, no sign
Your silence is mine
I fall, I crawl
Through nothing at all

Gone Like Smoke

It began with a slightly different guitar tuning and an impulsive Send.

It's easy to fall victim to ascribing special meaning to innocuous, random events. Especially with hindsight. And especially when something works out great. And, when it doesn't. But let's not go there, these are positive liner notes, after all.

That said, the song you are hopefully listening to right now, our new single Say It Again, is one of those special ones that seems to have appeared from out of nowhere, to quote a great Faith No More song that we covered in 2023. Even before the previous SineNomine single The Vault had been released Jeff had written and demoed a number of songs based on what he called a semi-open D tuning on an acoustic guitar. The demos were simple voice memos and were never meant to be anything other than rough outlines for potential future SineNomine tracks. Using an acoustic guitar on what were surely to become massive, dark electro songs was certainly not on Jeff's mind. In fact, had he demoed the songs the way he usually worked, on the computer, building the track from the ground up using midi sounds, things would certainly have turned out differently. Sometimes being pressed for time can be a good thing. 

There is something special about the stark simplicity of a songwriter performing a newly written song by themselves with just the sound of household appliances for special ambience. The song and performance either speak to you or they don't. If there's nothing there, you don't have the option of saying "Love that synth pad in the prechorus" or "Awesome vocal harmonies" even though they may well be there just to paper over how boring the lead melody is. Luckily, Em heard something in Jeff's demos and suggested a different approach for the next single. What if, instead of smothering the soundscape with everything and the kitchen sink, the focus was squarely on the song? And, what if the acoustic guitar became a part of the core sound? What if less was more?

Suffice to say we love Say It Again and the new SineNomine sound. And it would be so tempting to say it was meant to be and everything flowed naturally and it was so magical and the song basically wrote itself. Well, it wasn't and it didn't. It's not just the innumerable hours Em put into the production to make sure it only has exactly what's necessary and nothing more, it's also the decades of trial and error, of learning the craft of how to make a song come into being. And it is, most crucially, about trust and honesty between human beings. 

Still, it all began with a slightly weird tuning and a lazy Jeff who couldn't be bothered to record a proper demo and instead sent Em his crappy voice memo. 

This is the sound of the future that's built on the past. SineNomine welcomes you to stick around for the ride.
