man, really choked me this one, from pausing to read the description, then hearing the song. Love the contrast at the end, brutal gut wrenching lyrics, but I found the music quite uplifting and positive. I'm sure he was always extremely proud of you.

Such a beautiful song and so beautifully performed

This is beautiful, Kevin. It's where I go when I need to feel close to my dad.

A truly beautiful and heartfelt tribute ❤

Amazing Song & Recording Kevin ! Such a Unique Vibe ~ Massive Talent !!! ~~Very Jeff Buckleyish on the Vox here btw ~& LOVE the E ~piano & guitar & tone !

Thank you pops for.......

Buying me, as a combined 13th birthday and Christmas present,
a drum kit. Little did we know, the magical musical world that it would open up. A wonderful place that still excites and feeds my creative needs to this very day. Gives me reason and a purpose and never lets me down.
Gifting me, for my 15th birthday, my first guitar, because I wanted to write songs.
Letting me bang around on the expensive piano that stood in the hallway of our family home, because I needed to write "Piano" songs.
Taking my band of school mates all over London for gigs. Being our driver, chief roadie and head of security.
Always being interested in everything that I do, especially my music, right until your last breath.
And most important, for making, then shaping me to be the man that I am today.

The Sea:

The sea's all I need, shuffle and hide,
go figure with the tide.
The sea's where I needed to be.
The morning my father died, caught a chill deep inside,
but not from the breeze.
Sniffle and sigh, quake through my knees,
one step at a time.

The sea's where I needed, to be,
to work out how I feel, shift thing's about.
Brain overkill, which way to go,
shall I follow, the same path as I always do.
You, you won't be here, when I return.
You, you won't be here.....ever again.
I won't see you, ever again.

“The banjo is such a happy instrument. You can't play a sad song on the banjo, it always comes out so cheerful.” -Steve Martin

"If you're bored it's probably because you're boring." -My Mom

Inspired by the funnier side of @jeff-pope whose songs are anything but boring. Check him out. 

I’m not mad
I’m not sad
I’m not anything but where I’m at
I’m just bored, so bored, so bored

I’m not a fanatic
That’s too erratic 
I’m just a TV set to static
That means I’m bored, I’m so bored, I’m just bored

I got nothing to believe in
No dreams to be dreaming 
Tomorrow’s just another day

I don’t care for chitchat
I been there, I done that
The world could just spin away

I don’t fish
I don’t golf 
Whatever turns you on turns me off
I’m so bored with being bored 
I don’t wanna be so bored no more

I tried cocaine 
And LSD
I tried transcendental philosophy 
But I’m snoring, ‘cause it’s boring
And it’s 4 in the morning, I’m bored

Sorry if I’m a no-show
I’m feeling anti-social
It’ll probably be boring anyway

A birthday, an earthquake
Anything for for god’s sake
The world could stop spinning for a day

Then I’d be glad
I’d be relieved
Because I’d be anything that isn’t me
‘Cause I’m bored, so bored, so bored

Yabba dabba wabba whoa whoa whoa

I’m not mad
I’m not sad
I’m not anything but where I’m at
I’m just bored, so bored, so bored
So bored
So bored
So bored
So bored
So bored
So bored
So bored
So bored
So bored

So Bored

Don't miss the video for this track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_J4fMI34pg

This is the first track of Heartscore's upcoming album. I plan to publish the full album at the end of the year, approximately November. In the meantime I will promote this track as an appetizer together with the accompanying video, which you can find here: 

www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_J4fMI34pg 

The track and the album feature again the italian singer Giacomo Rossi on Lead vocals. Since I work with Giacomo the music of "Heartscore" has changed from Progressive Rock to Heavy Metal and the upcoming album will mean a further step into pure Metal-territory. You can expect Power-Metal in the tradition of Judas Priest, Manowar and Iron Maiden. But some tracks will also touch Thrash-Metal. 
It's also the first time in the history of "Heartscore", that I have written the lyrics myself and have not (ab)used old poems.
lyrics
Medusa’s head 

Raped by the god of the sea 
Beheaded by her enemy 
She was all alone 

Rage of a woman’s soul 
Turned into a brutal ghoul 
Her look turns men to stone 

Chorus: 

Medusa’s head was cut away 
But her glare still found its way 
Medusa’s head! Medusa’s head! 

Caused by Poseidon’s force 
Dead she gave birth to a horse 
Riding to the sky 

Snakes around her head 
Soon you would be dead 
Don’t look into her eyes 

Chorus 

She was beheaded so fast 
Cause Perseu’s weapons were too vast 
Sandals, helm and sword 

Holding the shield like a mirror 
He was able to beat her 
Put her head in a sack and corded it 

Chorus

This is the second song posted from the album Bitzone, Stricknice, Wou-Wou & the Wormling, and I have been working on together with a number of other friends on SoundCloud. The first song shared was the late 80s indie American underground inspired song, Ghosting Out, that include Bonetender joining with his transistor organ and guitar. The Show / The Shrike Pt. 3 is one of the 4 songs on the album inspired by Wou-Wou & the Wormling’s graphic novel, the Shrike, which inspired this project. 

Massive thanks to Carlos Vivanco and Belial Pelegrim for joining us on this track. This is the 2nd song Belial has joined me on and the first song I have had the privilege of working with Carlos on. It is amazing to have them both on the same track together. I feel so lucky to get to work with all my favorite musicians.

Lyrics:
Slowly the room will fill with smoke 
Mirrors help occupy the hoax 
Laughing when no one gets the joke
Millions waiting for the quote
Tell me what would you do for fame
How do you plan to win the game
Can you fit in the mould they make
If I asked would you scream my name
For the show

Simon says I will take the lead
Stick with me and you will succeed 
Come and get it come and chase this dream
All you need is a sob story
Like a moth to a flame so bright
Your a slave to the stark spotlight
Cheshire cat with her teeth so white
Tune in and see it all tonight
In the show

In the show

Later that evening as smoke from the chimney was pelted by the rain
Slain and dismembered my head fully severed and mounted and displayed 
It’s hard to explain I’m awake with no pain and hallowed out in the brain
I wouldn’t complain, a life that’s mundane, is all I could hope to attain
except i was detained by bird with a man and this is what he was saying  

Are you having me on?

In the show

You are out all day and this sorry excuse is all that you bring back?
This second rate stag you decided to bag isn’t worthy of a plaque 
Did I make my self clear I can’t tell from your sneer are we still on same track
Our collection is nearly complete I conceit but there is only one thing that we lack

One human head 
One human head
Don’t disappoint me now
In the show
You’re a freak, an animal and most importantly a killer
You’re a freak, an animal and most importantly a killer
A killer
A killer
A killer

This is the first song I ever wrote which I finally have the skills to finish. Back in 2019 I had to turn to music to inspire me to hold my head up and not give up on myself. So glad I decided to let my inspiration show me the way.

Chorus

What if you could have
More for your life
More than you 
Could ever dream of
What if all it 
Would take 
Is to cut that mess
And just 
Break Free

Break Free

Break Free (Re-Imagined)

A lively night at The Brunswick in Brighton last week captured on a mobile phone.  Three generations on stage, Yali, six years old, on bell, Yaron, his dad, on drums, me, his 'grandude', on vocals and keys, also featuring Hamish Livingstone on  the righteous upright bass  and Chris Carpenter on 'Bone',

After a trip through the Mediterranean with the paramour of my life years ago... these lyrics emerged as an expression of gratitude and love. Yesterday those lyrics found home in this new original composition.

Forever thinking about you and the family we've made baby.

Marco Lucchi & idematoa - Hourglass

Truly an honor once again to feature Jorg Joerxworx on track.  He always seem to have the missing piece to the puzzle.  Recently sent him a request asking him to do his thing on this track, and man did he deliver. Jorg is a very talented musician who plays a variety of instruments, including the Tenor sax, which I was fortunate enough to have him grace this track with. Thank you Jorg!

Enjoy!

Meeting The World IPG1 feat. Joerxworx

Retorn Of Calafate Version Berlin School - Part 5

Another track inspired by "The Wake", a post apocalyptic novel by Paul Kingsnorth.

Buccmaster and his friends visit a village untouched by the Norman invasion. They participate in a village celebration, which Buccmaster looks back on as the very last joyful day. Even so, everyone there fears for the future.

I used my Flamenco guitar again... but economically, my early versions were too Iberian!

the last daeg we was yonge

Wallowing in the warmth of lower mids and melancholic melody.
Recorded, mixed and mastered on a Tascam DP 32 Portastudio. (Image of the cheeky little unit under my name)


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
