After What We Called Love, the great collabo between Illy Noize and Liza Flume, the single Illy put his summer feelings in one track. It's called "Lumen" and it's just summer. So let the sun speak after the german winter session... have a listen and some fun with What! What!

Sooo... here's an old earworm, that I just couldn't resist. Many of you remember the classic "Are you keeping up with the Commodore" commercial, and I had several requests over the last year if I could do a number on this. I tried to keep as much as possible from the original, but upgrading it, beefing it up and make it a little more snappy.

Since there are no multitracks available with the original vocal recordings, I just used www.vocalremovers.org since it's free, and it did a decent job of separating the voices from the backing track. Some phasing and flanging occurs, but I hope the delay and reverb plus the blending in the mix covers most of that anyway.

The song is in 163 BPM, so there's little time to relax, but it also gives a good drive. Using a lot of everything here, Roland MKS modules, Yamaha TX and Motifs, Kurzweil 1000PX, Alesis QSR, Ensoniq SD-1, TS-10, Sequential TOM and various other hardware synths. Some ReFX Nexus2 with various expansion packs here and there, and some SID/Chiptunes thrown in for good measure. It's after all... about the Commodore, right?

Tried to find the original composers and songwriters, but couldn't find any. If you happen to know who made this song, please let me know in the comments.

Thanks to The Obsolete Geek for using his parody. Check out his video on the SX-64 here: https://youtu.be/zmMasWCbefA

Also thanks to Kristian Tjessem for letting me use the picture of his C64 and monitor.

And last, but not least, thanks to my patreons and you fans out there.

Keeping Up With Commodore

High Expectation (Stereolab Cover)

Seldom does a day go by but I return, at some stage, to Bach. I recall the magic of first hearing the D minor Chaconne, the glorious opening mvt of Cantata 140, the slow mvt of the double violin concerto... the opening Arioso of Cantata BWV 156, to which I owe the inspiration for this particular little offering.

I've never subscribed to the notion that Bach's music is more cerebral, less emotionally charged than the music of later generations. Despite its transformation into a contemporary love song I'll be delighted if something of the romance and warmth of Bach's original shines through here. The final section of the song resorts to a simple vocalise elaboration of the Arioso melody. A heartfelt tribute to the composer who, more than any other, set me on a musical journey (from classical roots to folk, rock, jazz, fusion... and back) that still, so many years later, feels like it's only just begun.

A very special vote of thanks to the many others who've contributed to this recording, including:
Carolina de la Muela (vocals); Nicholas Ojeda (Dble Bass). Strings - Nightsongs Studio Strings. And not least, to Simon Gibson down at Abbey Road Studios for his customary prowess in the final mastering.

Some songs are just meant to be.  In the earliest days of this song's creation, I came to a juncture that was make or break.  Stepping back, giving it some distance, molding it a bit more, it became a keeper, and one that was well received in its first posting over two years ago.  Debbie added her magic a year ago and its reception and audience grew even more.  Now Bix has added his superb vocal talent to take the song to even greater heights.  Have a listen and fly with us as the angels bear us up on their wings.  Hear more of Bix's great songs @user-432405235-236877019

FLY (HE WILL LIFT YOU UP)
Music: David Dunham/Debra Buesking
Lyrics: Bix Bixler
Aaaah….fly with me
Let the angels
Bear you up
To meet Him
When He comes

Hear the angels
Hear them singing
God’s celestial song

He will lift you up
To rise with Him
On high
And drink His cup
Of love….

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

Let the angels
Bear you up
To meet Him
When He comes

Hear the angels
Hear them singing
God’s celestial song

He will lift you up
To rise with Him
On high
And drink His cup
Of love…..

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

Let the angels
Bear you up
To meet Him
When He comes

Hear the angels
Hear them singing
God’s celestial song…

Teardrop ● Massive Attack

Conexión Radiante" is a captivating song that combines elements of Latin house and romantic music to create a unique and vibrant musical experience. The title itself, which translates to "Radiant Connection," hints at the themes explored in the song.

From the moment the music begins, you are enveloped in a pulsating rhythm that immediately transports you to a lively dance floor. The Latin house influence is evident in the infectious beats, syncopated percussion, and energetic electronic melodies that permeate the track. The driving force of the music propels listeners to move and groove, creating an irresistible urge to dance.

Amidst the infectious rhythm, the romantic undertones of the song emerge, weaving a tale of love and passion. The lyrics paint a picture of two souls entwined, celebrating the electric connection they share. The heartfelt and poetic verses express deep emotions, describing the intensity of their bond and the overwhelming desire they feel for one another. The romantic elements of the song manifest through the passionate vocals and tender harmonies, evoking a sense of longing and devotion.

02 Delectatio - Be Free
03 Delectatio - Remember
04 Delectatio - Latibule

Portuguese artist Delectatio is a new signing to Silk Sofa. His EP, "Sunrise", features four unique and unforgettable downtempo cuts.

"Numinous" starts with intriguing guitar riffs and enjoyable melodies on top. Soon, intricate percussion elements as well as hypnotizing vocal stems emerge, while the delightful theme melody continues to liven up the soundscape. A blissful guitar line and soothing percussion elements introduce "Be Free". Fascinating vocal stems are added later, thereby adding an extra layer of delicate and refreshing textures. "Remember" begins with a stunning atmosphere, including a number of lush synths and an intricate bassline. A mesmerizing arpeggio melody emerges later, and numerous sound effects continuously spice up the soundscape. The final song in this package is "Latibule". Beautiful melodies are quickly established, and multiple new layers are added on top, as the song progresses. The soothing breakbeat comforts the listener even further.

http://boingboing.net/2012/06/15/laetitia-sadier-find-me-th.html

Laetitia Sadier -  Find Me the Pulse of the Universe

Dreamy new single off of Stereolab's lead singer's solo project. 


Laetitia Sadier - There is a Price to Pay

Formed in January 2009, Girls Names quickly garnered recognition outside of the confines of their hometown of Belfast with the release of their eponymous debut EP in 2010 through New York's Captured Tracks. A mini-album through London imprint Tough Love soon followed, setting the foundations for their critically acclaimed debut LP Dead To Me, released in April last year again by Tough Love in Europe and cult West Coast label Slumberland Records in the US. Earlier this year the band released a split 7” with Weird Dreams and contributed with a new single called ‘A Troubled See' that saw them spread far and wide.
 
Girls Names are now hinting at making their boldest and most exciting record to date. New single 'The New Life' clocks in at over 7 minutes and takes you on a journey that mirrors the feelings of a band living and working in economy stricken Northern Ireland - the perfect soundtrack of the bleakness to where they exist. The B-side on the 12” is a J D Twitch Optimo remix of the single.
 
This year the band expanded to a four-piece and has spent the last six months in virtual seclusion honing and developing a more progressive and expansive sound, feeding on the darker sides of Echo and The Bunnymen, Spacemen 3, The Birthday Party and David Bowie's Low before heading off on a triumphant Spring/Summer European tour culminating on their biggest and most successful shows to date at the prestigious Primavera sound festival in Barcelona.
 
A new full length is currently being finished off but for now it seems Girls Names are intent on making a lasting impression with single 'The New Life'. It certainly feels as though the band is ready to enter a new phase in their existence and they’re not afraid to take risks.
 
The band has also announced they will be playing a show in London on 26th October with Weird Dreams @ Birthdays.

DONT WAKE ME UP
Analogue vinyl HD version 1.2
background: just listening to the vocals, then composing. 
interpretation of the emotion and not an attempt with the notes to create music, so I left it as it was after the first recording. I write the notes and mix with some live piano, if it sounds good so I leave it there.

----------------------------------------------
verse 1

So many times I’ve heard
Promises of romance
But there’s something about you that makes me believe in another chance
Can’t explain what I’m sensing
Every part of me trembling as
I feel that you’ve got through my defense


chorus

And I should know by now
To always touch the ground
But how I forget
Enchanted by your face
I’ve found my perfect place
So don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up



verse 2

Savoring every word
Snowflakes upon my tongue
Take your hand in mine and our eyes building heat like the rising sun
As I swim in your ocean
I don’t even look back to the shore
We embrace underwater and now I’m not drowning anymore


pre chorus

Is this a shadow pathway
Is this a mirror image
I don’t care in your arms I could stay here forever
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up

DON'T WAKE ME UP

Getting Over Him

Getting Over Him (feat. Jon Pardi)

"Maria" is track 1 from Frances Luke Accord's Sunnyside EP, out March 19 via the band's new label, Two-Dale Records. 

Lyrics:

If the sun goes dark someday 
And all the stars fall out from space, oh 
Solace me, my enlightened one 
With no stars and with no sun 

And if the full moon didn’t come 
Wasn’t new and it wandered on to some 
Other earth and some other sun 
Would you also go love some other one? 

Take me with you, Maria, please 
I'm so full and I need to empty 
I set all my glittering cotton alight 
On the bitter chance you'll restore my sight why I'd
Leave my body and my blood behind 
On just the faith you're the one to find
