Thanks so much Mica, for makin' my song sound so "fanfunkintastikali" Goood!! Love it all, bass &drums, percussion, keys & synth horns, even thought I heard a little fingerpickin' guitar in there. Masterful Production my friend :=)

I commented on the other copy  but failed to mention how good those Stax horns are on this;  this is a fantastic tune!!

Heard this on Steve's page and was blown away then just as I am again now...magnificent production, Mica!

Philip Sayce is one my favorite guitarist, and I really like his live versions of this song.

Scars (Philip Sayce Cover)

(4 February)the beginning [first day] of spring (in the traditional Japanese calendar).

The first spring embrace you

Much as a soldier enlisted in the American Earthman's army is called a "G.I.," an enlisted spaceman in Her Majesty's Space Navy is called "Dumaflagee." According to Her Majesty's Bureau of Linguistics, the word has been used for centuries to mean "what's his face?" Her Majesty's Board of Distinguished Experts on Musicology have established that "Dumaflagee's Lament" is a traditional spaceman's tune, sung by spaceman for the last three centuries. I present this rendition for the study of sympathetic Earthmen who yearn to traverse the vast expanse of the Universe.

Composed and performed by Admiral Krank. Drums by Mo Sheen.

Lyrics:
By dim light, you whispered sweet,
Will you bind, your heart to me?

Though the banners wave,
And the shields wait true,
Marry me this night,
B’fore the morning dew....

In your eyes, Shone the fire light
Heather sprig,  Lying by my side.. 

Oh my love, 
Return to me
But should you fall, 
I’ll follow thee,
A Shield maiden fair.

Will you follow, my ribbon there
To shores of Loch Shiel
Where the sun yet shines
We’ll shimmer bright
On the shield of dreams....
You’ll find me there.

Blue on Blue

Shores of Loch Shiel

Shores Of Loch Shiel

A little folksy ramble about mortality, electricity and such things. 

When I wrote this I was thinking of when I was standing in my old hallway a few years ago. I was watching the lights from an overhead thunderstorm through the retro glass front door. It was the kind of storm where you could feel the strange sensations around your body from the electric charge in the atmosphere. It was such a charge that it somehow managed to ring the front door bell moments before a deluge. To me it was both poetic and a little bit freaky.

Persian sunlight
Wrapped in rugs that trapped it
In your memory so bright

Oxpecker scars
Feasted on your shoulders
As you fast

You have hovered like a kestrel
Watched the winter turn to petrichor
You have followed thunderstorms
Through minds-eye-skies and charge
The bell to your front door

You still resist
A quench for you temptation
And the dead will desist

So much to leave
Before you reach your senses
And can breathe

You have hovered like a kestrel
Watched the winter turn to petrichor
You have followed thunderstorms
Through minds-eye-skies and charge
The bell to your front door

Petrichor

Tres Chic

I am always honoured to collaborate with any of Soundcloud’s awesome musicians but, when I am given the opportunity to produce a song, the elation is beyond my ability to express in words.  This song was fun and I am grateful to Steve for allowing me the privilege of contributing to this great piece.

Truth Unite Us

Truth Unite Us by Steve Whitfield - Produced by Moody Mo

This track I made up is called "Searching for Life", it has a Sci-Fi feel and is kind of inspired by the Halo franchise.

Soundtrack 2021

Searching for Life

So we are stuck in our own ways
I try to spice things up but your eyes have long since glazed

CHORUS
Perhaps in a sad song
Is where we truly belong
Stuck in a sad space
Like half of our fellow race
A tale with a sad sting
You never felt anything
Are we just plain sad or just a phase?
[We are stuck in our own ways
We sunk without a trace
We are stuck in our own ways]

How we struggled through hard times
Searching for some true love but true love is hard to find

CHORUS

So we are stuck in our own ways
But I will break free from this glue one of these days

Stuck In Our Own Ways

Abandoned Cities V

HELLO MY FRIENDS!  
I recommend navigating this large, chaotic cloud by tracks or playlists.
I am a Drummer/Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist/Producer. I've played in various types of bands over the years, Rock, Folk, Irish, Reggae, Jazz, Funk, Country, and Avant Garde. I'm best known for playing drums through multiple re-incarnations of Shiva's Headband, the eclectic, legendary psychedelic era band from Austin. One of my songs appears on "In the Primo of Life", and I co-wrote "Roots Rock Station" with Spencer Perskin, which first appeared on "Remember The Armadillo" and was re-released on "The Temple of Rock N Roll". I also co-produced the CD, "So You Don't Go Barefoot", by Sue Perskin of Shiva's. This cloud focuses on my songwriting. Credit is given to any and all musicians involved. Otherwise everything you hear I've done myself.

I am a songwriter/studio musician who plays the Piano/Keyboards primarily and secondarily drums and almost all World Percussion instruments (e.g. Indo/African, Latin, Southwest Asian, etc.) and bass.  I have many music sets with varying genres.  Although I am partial to Jazz (traditional); Bebop; Blues, Fusion, Latin/World and a mixture of the aforementioned, I occasionally dabble in R&B, Gospel/Inspirational; Funk, Rock, and various other music categories.  I also sing (although not very well).  My current in home studio setup consists of:

KEYBOARD
----------------
- Korg Triton Studio 88
- Ensoniq SD1
 
PERCUSSION
-------------------
- Mapex Fusion Set w/ 3 added snares and host of varying cymbals.
- LP Tumba, Conga and Quinto
- Custom Half/Tube Tumbadora Set
- Various African, Arabic & Latin Percussion (e.g. Shekere; Guiro; Djembes; Doumbek, etc.)

PRODUCTION
-----------------
- Cakewalk Sonar Platinum Production Suite
- Focusrite Audio Interface
- HP Pavilion 64bit i7 w/ 16 GB RAM
- Various compressors and effects processors that I don't know how to use
