Signature Synchronicity


From the Mist

...in the year 2023 ;)

Another quicky made with Originals Epic Strings, Epic Brass + Woodwinds and Cinematic Percussion. Sadly there is a bug in Epic Strings which can be heard at the beginning on 2nd and 3rd bar/tact that I couldn't avoid. I hope Spitfire resolves it and then I'll upload corrected version.

A track for imaginary game set in fantasy world.

A dark electro journey through time and space 🖤

Fast falls the eventide
The darkness deepens
The darkness deepens
The darkness deepens

There is no life
No life
Without its hunger
But then you come
And I am filled with wonder

Sometimes
I think I glimpse eternity

The darkness deepens
I glimpse eternity
In the silence
Until you come
I glimpse eternity
Until you come
In the silence
Until you come.

Haunting One Seven

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

This track is a little nuts.....

If you've ever battled a raccoon, this is the song for you, sung from the perspective of the perpetrator. Raccoons are wily little buggers and more than a little guile is needed to control the movements of an animal that has been trapped in a cage before.

Debated with myself a bit on adding more instruments and sounds but in the end decided that less was more. The "rhythm guitar" is a distorted saturated synth and the "lead" is a Logic Pro Heavy Metal guitar manipulated with the pitch stick on my synth. The difficult part was getting the swing on the drums right and the ADSR right on the main synth, modulation and LFO. Also played a bit with the compression to get a breathing sound.

About the raccoon - that battle is ongoing - physical deterrence is now in place.

The raccoon, also spelled racoon and sometimes called the common raccoon or northern raccoon to distinguish it from the other species, is a mammal native to North America. It is the largest of the procyonid family, having a body length of 40 to 70 cm (16 to 28 in), and a body weight of 5 to 26 kg (11 to 57 lb). Its grayish coat mostly consists of dense underfur, which insulates it against cold weather. The animal's most distinctive features include its extremely dexterous front paws, its facial mask, and its ringed tail, which are common themes in the mythologies of the Indigenous peoples of the Americas surrounding the species. The raccoon is noted for its intelligence, and studies show that it is able to remember the solution to tasks for at least three years. It is usually nocturnal and omnivorous, eating about 40% invertebrates, 33% plants, and 27% vertebrates. [Wikipedia]

NEVER LOSE

Keep on coming back
Doesn’t really matter 
Spicy red American 
Coyote piss whatever

Turn up the volume
Tie up the bait 
Bag it all, close the door
I don’t give a damn

I’ll never give up
I’ll never give up

I know what’s down under
I know what you’re trying to hide

It’s all mine
Day or night 
I don’t even care
Seen all the tricks
You can try again
All over again

Keep on coming back
Never ever mattered
Inca mountain flake 
Apple cider try

Play rock’n’roll
Talk show or news
Heard it all before
Kinda like it now

I’ll never give up
I’ll never give up

Time is on my side
Time is my legal guardian

Find another way
Find your hidden weakness 
Seen you from above
You can try again
All over and again

Keep on coming back
Its never gonna matter
Flashing disco lights
I’ll do a pirouette

Put a ring on it
I’ll go left or right
I’m coming down
I got you number

I’ll never give up
I’ll never give up

I know where you live
I know when you’re asleep

It’s all mine
Day or night 
I don’t even care
Seen all the tricks
You can try again
All over again

I never lose
I never lose
I never lose
I never lose

Keep on
Keep on coming back
Keep on
Keep on coming back

It’s all mine
Day or night 
I don’t even care
Seen all the tricks
You can try again
All over again

I never lose

Never Lose

LONELY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN LONELY NIGHTS
NO MORE JOY NO MORE PAIN OUT OF SIGHT
SITTING IN MY GARDEN, MAN, A ROBIN FOR A FRIEND
PLENTY OF SUSPENDED TIME ON MY HANDS
NOW I’M HERE HERE AND NOW
THAT’S WHERE I STAND
ROCKING IN MY ROCKING CHAIR
MADE OF AIR

LONELY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN LONELY NIGHTS
NO MORE BALLS NO MORE CHAIN WELL ALRIGHT
SIPPING AT MY ICE COOL BEER THE ROBIN FOR A FRIEND
NEVER MIND THE BITTER END IN THE END
NOW I’M HERE NOW I’M HERE
NOW I’M HERE 
AND HERE TO STAY
CHECKING THE PALM OF MY HAND
MADE OF SAND

LONELY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN LONELY NIGHTS


NOW I’M HERE NOW I’M HERE
AND HERE I AM
HERE COMES THE CHILL OF THE FALL
MADE OF GOLD

LONELY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN LONELY NIGHTS
WITH A BROKEN HEART TO MEND 
AND A ROBIN FOR A FRIEND
NOW I’M HERE

Original Lyrics that inspired Glen by Tony Harris
Vocals, Music and Mix by Glen Granthem

HE GREW UP IN THE SOUTH IN THE 1920'S
WHEN WORK WAS HARD TO FIND
A YOUNG MAN IN HIS THIRTY'S
NO STRANGER TO THE DAILY GRIND

BACK IN THOSE DAYS OF OLD
MOST OF THE WELLS WERE DUG BY HAND
WATER WAS WORTH IT'S WEIGHT IN GOLD
AND VERY IMPORTANT WHEN BUYIN' LAND

TO EARN EXTRA MONEY DURING HARD TIMES
HE DECIDED TO START DIGGIN' WELLS BY HAND
KNOWIN' IT WAS HARD WORK AND LONG HOURS
IT WAS GOIN' TO BE HIS SHORT TERM PLAN

(CHORUS)
AFTER DIGGIN' SEVERAL  WELLS BY HAND
THEY STARTED LAUGHTIN' AT THE YOUNG MAN
HIS WELL DIGGIN' REPUTATION WAS A JOKE
HE COULDN'T HIT WATER IF HE FELL OUT OF THE BOAT
HE COULDN'T HIT WATER IF HE FELL OUT OF THE BOAT

HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF WELL WATER WITCHIN'
YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHERE THE WATER IS LOCATED
BEFORE YOU PICK UP A SHOVEL AND START DIGGIN'
IF YOUR GONNA BE A DEVOTED WELL DIGGER

HE NEVER TOOK THE TIME TO DO ANY RESEARCH
JUST PURCHASED HIS TOOLS AND STARTED DIGGIN'
WOUND UP BEING A WELL DIGGIN' JOKE
THAT COULDN'T HIT WATER IF HE FELL OUT OF THE BOAT

(REPEAT CHORUS)

(GUITAR SOLO)

(REPEAT CHORUS AND OUT)

Elderly old men in the nursing home having teenage styled crushes on the nursing staff.
From the Album: "Arrhythmia & Blues" 2024

Lyrics:
Nurse Felicia
You know that you messed up my mind!
Makes this old man think about his younger times

I hear that cart coming down the hallway
With those pills 
All lined up in a row
I see you moving to that Top 40 song
And where she takes me
You know I want to go

Nurse Felicia
You know that you messed up my mind!
Make an old man dream about his Summertime

You wheel me to my physical rehabilitation
You make me feel exhilaration
The Doctors say:
"You need to keep your blood pressure down"
Down! Down! Down!
I hear that cart rolling down the hall
I see her moving and grooving
To a Top 40 song
When I see her my heart sings along
"wherever you take me, you know I want to go"

Nurse Felicia
You know that you messed up my mind!
Make an old man think about his younger times
Nurse Felicia
You know that you messed up my mind!

Nurse Felicia

One day I had been messing with „that scale” (also called a Tunisian/Satie/Gnosienne scale), came up with this and used the chords for another song. Then I've revisited this one, added some more chords, some sort of solo/melody and... got myself a song, also. Or something like that.

Inspired by a poem by Robert Bly:

 “Ah, on this planet we are born again and again. A gold sun rises in the East, but for us, it is a black sun. Each time the black sun rises, dazzling and tremendous, its sadness flows into us. ‘If this sadness could not flow out of me, it would kill me.’
I listen and I see a horse-dragon swim up out of the Black Sea. It climbs into the air. Play on, play on - what can we do but long for this dragon-water from the Black Sea to fall on us?”

While making this, the medieval text 'Omnia sol temperat' dumped into my head. As it have the rebirth theme as well, the synchronicity of it all seemed unmistakeable :-)

New Roses

Just looking, looking, looking, looking
For the latest blooms
Just looking, looking, looking, looking
For the sharpest thorns

But that is…						
But that is no easy find
And that is…					
That is not an easy thing
Cos’ there is…					
Not any validity
And that is…					
That is just a misery

In the garden of new roses
Wandering hidden paths
Must move with some adroitness
Or getting tossed

Into the underwood
Growing not so very well understood…

Still picking, picking, picking, picking
For a little more attention
Still clicking, clicking, clipping, clicking
For some solid numbers

But that is…						
But that is no easy find
And that is…					
That is not an easy thing
Cos’ there is…					
Not any validity
And that is…					
That is just a misery

In the garden of neurosis
Wandering hidden paths
Ahh, must move with some more adroitness
Ahh, already getting lost

In the underwood
The maze gets bigger than understood
In the underwood…
Where the new roses stood…

Port Lockroy - Αρκτικός Λιμένας

Cast of Characters:

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – 4-string fretless bass
Mysterious Decibel-- @themysteriousdecibel  --MD—effected vocals
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ, trippy synth
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – electric guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– electric guitar, production, mix, and mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and seed idea 
Composition – The Eclectic Collective

This song began about half a year ago, as part of a three song set that Ken started with some really cool beats. Josh was first to the trough for here, laying in his fretless bass groove to complete the foundation and give it some tonal direction. Stephen came next and laid in the really trippy textural guitar that you hear throughout. JJ was next with his serious, no joke organ playing, which sets the mood for the whole thing. Last, but not least, Tez joined by adding some really cool accent guitar throughout.
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, so we tapped Stephen to do the honors on this.
  We had originally made this and the other two song with the intention of having The Mysterious Decibel and his friend Modes About Me sing on them. However, life got in the way, so we sat on them. Finally, MD let us know that he wasn't able to complete the project with us, much to everyone's, including his, disappointment. However, MD did lay down a rough vocal demo for us, which Stephen very ably processed to sound almost like another instrument in there. So, we're releasing this song as a tribute to them both, with gratitude, especially to MD for all the great work he's put in with us. If you're not familiar with either of them, do yourself a favor and check them out. Modes about me is at  @modesaboutme and the link to The Mysterious Decibel can be found in the link in the cast of characters above. 
  This is an example of what it sounds like when the whole band composes a song together. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Lyrics (by Stonerjazz):

We all chose it, we arrived here at this self-same place
he liked to think that he had earned it
but that simply not the case.
He just dreamed it up one sunday afternoon
while drowsing and lounging in the Ether
where the US resides
while living on a Proton Banished
to the outskirts of a single Atom
In a single Universe-
It was a wicked Curse, specifically designed for him
A scorcerer, Albert Rufus Smith
Stole a Rocket ship and he took it to Uriah
He was a rascal and scoundrel and a liar and a thief
But he had a magic knife that he had won in a game of dice
on a stormy night in a corner of some ruins
in the desert in december by the fire light with some other witches from Oaxaca
where he'd Spied Roberta picking magic mushrooms naked in the moonlight
with her brothers and her sisters and some others from the Bus-
It seems that Albert Rufus Smith Was Smitten

The eternal now is Wow
When we wonder why we wander
where we will
while walking walking walking to fulfill
the contemplated vacancy
Beyond the vast Horizen

Alberts knife was sliver with a handle made of Amber
when he held it high above his head
it gave off a blinding light
and on that night on the planet of Uriah
when Gus and all his jolly happy hopeful holograms arrived
on that Beat-up Bus
That formulated plan in Alberts wicked head
appeared to be on Track
had he not been messmerized by Roberta's perfect presence and physic
he might have pulled it off, that dirty rotten little sneak--

Sid and Larry caught him and his Cronies
trying to steal the bus and Abduct
Sally and Roberta too, Who
were sleeping on the bus in the back together as they always do,
And Gus was not Amused-
Albert seemed to be confused until he held his Magic knife up high
and blinded ever bodies eye
and in a frantic flight he escaped into the distant night--

LOOK AT ALL THE LIFE TODAY,
