Nada (He pensado en la muerte)

This is another 1 mic recording, just me and guitar, recorded on my 8 track in the living room, no effects or overdubs. I'm having a bit of decorating done in the house, so it's bare bones on the music front at the minute, a lot of gear packed away. So this  Is my song Push It Down The River, but I decided to try singing using my natural Geordie dialect/accent , oddly though it doesn't feel too normal  singing like this, but I've given it a go. Maybe just a one off, I'll see!

Thanks as always for listening and inspiring!

“...from here, I can pretend...I can pretend that things last. I can pretend that lives last longer than moments. Gods come, and gods go. Mortals flicker and flash and fade. Worlds don't last; and stars and galaxies are transient, fleeting things that twinkle like fireflies and vanish into cold and dust. But I can pretend...”

Beyond the Netherworld (2023 Remix)

The banjo is a musical instrument with African origins, believed to have been developed by enslaved Africans in the Caribbean and later brought to North America. The exact origins of the banjo are unclear, but it is thought to have evolved from similar stringed instruments in West Africa, such as the akonting or ngoni

The banjo first gained popularity in the United States during the 19th century, particularly in the American South, where it became associated with African American music and culture. Early banjos were typically made with gourds for resonators and animal skin for the drumhead, and were played using a technique called frailing or clawhammer, in which the player's fingernail or a piece of bone is used to strike the strings

In the late 19th century, the banjo underwent a period of rapid evolution, with improvements in materials and construction leading to the development of more sophisticated and versatile instruments. One important development was the introduction of the resonator, a wood plate behind the open drum that increased the volume and projection of the banjo's sound. Another was the development of the five-string banjo, which added a shorter fifth string that allowed for more complex playing techniques

The origins of the 5-string banjo are unclear, but it is believed to have been developed by African American musicians in the mid-19th century. The addition of the fifth string, which is shorter than the other four strings and is tuned to a higher pitch, allowed for a wider range of notes and made it easier to play certain melodies and chord progressions

One of the early pioneers of the 5-string banjo was Joel Sweeney, a white musician from Virginia who popularized the instrument in the mid-1800s. Sweeney is often credited with introducing the shorter fifth string, as well as other improvements to the banjo, such as the addition of frets and the use of metal strings

However, it's important to note that the development of the 5-string banjo was likely a collaborative effort among many musicians, both black and white, and its exact origins are difficult to trace. Nonetheless, Sweeney's contributions were significant and helped to establish the modern form of the instrument that is still popular today

During the early 20th century, the banjo became a popular instrument in a variety of musical styles, including jazz, blues, and country music. The instrument was played by a number of famous musicians, including Earl Scruggs, who popularized a three-finger picking style that became known as the Scruggs style

In recent years, the banjo has experienced a resurgence of popularity, particularly in the realm of folk and Americana music. Today, the banjo is played in a wide range of styles and genres, and is appreciated for its unique sound and cultural significance in musical storytelling

When we first met
by Hour


When we first met, I felt so shy,
Heartbeats racing, couldn’t deny.
A simple smile, a glance so true,
Didn’t know then, I’d fall for you.

Chorus:

The journey of us, getting to know,
From nervous laughs to a warm, gentle glow.
Step by step, hand in hand,
Together we found where we stand.

Verse 2:

Talking deep, sharing dreams,
Melting those timid seams.
Learning your likes, what you adore,
Every moment, I want more.

Chorus:

The journey of us, getting to know,
From nervous laughs to a warm, gentle glow.
Step by step, hand in hand,
Together we found where we stand.

Bridge:

Through highs and lows, our bond grows,
From strangers to friends, now love shows.
With you, my heart began to soar,
Couldn’t ask for anything more.

Verse 3:

Now I see you, I feel at home,
No longer scared, no need to roam.
Your presence, a love so kind,
In your eyes, my peace I find.

Chorus:

The journey of us, getting to know,
From nervous laughs to a warm, gentle glow.
Step by step, hand in hand,
Together we found where we stand.

Outro:

Reflecting back on where we've been,
Thankful for you, my dearest friend.
Our story continues, love unfolds,
In your arms, forever to hold.

When we first met

Music & Lyrics: Eddy Mango

INTE TAR MUSIK PÅ ALLVAR

Nej inte ska vi bry oss i,
hur dom andra tycker att,
vi ska leva vårat liv,
för det är ju våran sak.

Varför ska man vara som andra?
Varför ska dom andra oss klandra?
Inte tar musik på allvar.
Vi säger,
tänk efter,
vad vore livet utan musik.

Man går och funderar på
om det är rätt att göra så,
att ibland som vi vara uppe till två.
Vi vill ju leva som vi själva vill,
för det går inte att spela musik på tid.

Mats i ordning 1

Inte tar musik på allvar. ( 1993 ) Eddy Mango ( Eddy )

Image not my own

Come the dark and I'll be with you,
when the light has all but disappeared.
I will stand still, beside you,
whispering wake up...my love.

Wait till dark my sweetheart,
rest your eyes then open up your mind.
To the possibilities of illogicality,
calling now my love once more.

One day it may pass, who knows how long,
the hurting will last?
Maybe for all time, till then you'll find,
me waiting.

Bring on the dark and I'll be with you,
when the light has all but disappeared.
I will stand still beside you,
Whispering wake up, whispering wake up,
whispering wake up......my love.

LES GENS S’ENGUEULENT
LES GENS S’ENGUEULENT ILS SAVENT PAS POURQUOI MAIS

DES NOMS D’OISEAUX DES MOTS DE TROP ET DES GROS MOTS
POUR TROIS FOIS RIEN DU MOMENT QUE ÇA FAIT DU BIEN 
DE FAIRE DU MAL UN ANIMAL 
DEUX ANIMAUX

AVEC MA POULE C’EST UNE AFFAIRE QUI ROULE MAIS
DÈS QU’ON S’ENGUEULE
Y’ A TOUT QUI S’ÉCROULE EN SUCETTE EN SEMOULE OUAIS
TEL UN CRUMBLE

QU’EST-CE QUE T’AS DIT RÉPÈTE UN PEU J’VAIS TOUT CASSER
TU M’FAIS PAS PEUR D’ABORD C’EST TOI QU’A COMMENCÉ
ON A L’AIR FIN AH OUAIS ON A L’AIR BEAU À VOIR
DÉFIGURÉS LA BOUCHE ROUGE ET LES YEUX NOIRS OH

LES GENS S’ENGUEULENT ET QUAND ILS EN ONT ASSEZ
DE S’ENGUEULER
CHACUN SINGLE VA SE FAIRE VOIR DE SON CÔTÉ
POUR FAIRE LA GUEULE

DES LIONS DES MOUSTIQUES DES LYCAONS DES TIQUES

『おれは罪人』
作詞・作曲 / Papyrusたくや

信じたければ信じればいいし
信じたくなければ信じなければいい

新興宗教に蝕まれて
優しくなった親父がいて
何とかっていう通販サイトに騙されて
とても幸せそうなおじいちゃんとおばあちゃんがいるんだよ

お母さんはいつも不機嫌そうな顔をしていた
だけど時々優しいからさ
憎み切れなくて

おれには兄弟がいる
必ず夢を叶えるんだって言って体に刻み込んだ君を
今でも応援してるよ

小さい頃におれが家族から受けたことが虐待だというのなら
安心してね

もう罪なんてどこにもないよ
あなたを裁ける人なんていない
心にひとつだけあるのはおれの罪の意識
それだけ

そう おれは罪人なんだ
そう おれは罪人なんだ

仕事だって続かなければ人付き合いも苦手で
愛想笑いもできないおれだ

15の頃に高校をやめて
それから何回窓ガラスを割って喧嘩をした？
人に迷惑を何度かけた？

この罪をどこまで持ってけばいいんだろう
罪悪感があれば恐い夢を出してしまうっていうけれど
おれはこれから何度恐ろしい夢を見ればいいの？

何度恐ろしい夢を

世間とは個人 夢とは鏡
塗り替えられた世界を今日も生きる
死ぬか生きるか それはおれが決める事
空き缶集めてでも生きて行くさ

生きて行くさ
生きて…

こうやっていつもおれは人のせい
投げやりになってしまうんだ
ゴミ拾いの前に何かできるはず

もう少し
もう少し
もう少し

おれは罪人

Take a large bucket. Add a pint of Neil Young, a pinch of Glen Hansard. Wack in a tea spoon of Damien Rice, then an ickle bit of Tom Mcrae. Shove in a hand full of Mike Scott, a heaped table spoon of Neil Finn and a large dollop of Conor J. O'Brien. Mix with a big stick then strain through an old sock. Pour. What you have is a little bit of Mr C.

Hello good people of the cloud.
I play everything in real time and record and master on a Tascam DP 32 Portastudio. Although three of the older songs on here where recorded on a 8 track tape recorder through an old seck analogue desk.
No pc's are used or abused in the process of me music making. I love tactile recording. Switches, faders, pots and buttons. Mouses are for computers and eating cheese. No Mac, Daws or Windows, Midi or overused plugins. And no automated mixing, compromise being a large part of my final sound
