MTD Mixtape September 2024

The Cacklettes: Lay

someplace, somewhen
we’ll never meet again
this moment’s pinned up onto time
the razor now
will cut and split our thens
and even stars will fall in line
and little you and tiny I
oh we are just as unrepeatable
we only got to run it once
in all of this someplace-somewhen

you know those ripples
in the oxbow lake
repeat never again
we’re not all evil
when we make mistakes 
we hope to fix them all somewhen

no we
don’t need
no reason for the jubilee
no harm
no foul
no lent or saint for a carnival

no we
don’t need
no reason for a jubilee 
no harm
no foul
no miracles for a carnival

one place, one when—
a trickster of eternity
neither will crease nor bend
at least not for you & me

so gather all your rosebuds while you may
this is why you came
(of course it’s not okay)
just gather no regrets
somehow, someway...

someplace, somewhen
we’ll never meet again
this moment’s once in all of time
the razor now
will cut and split our thens
and even galaxies will fall in line

you know that levee
where we drank and wept
will not repeat again

no we
don’t need
no fancy math for a jubilee
no harm
no foul
no speed bumps for a carnival

someplace, somewhen
someplace, somewhen
we got to happen once
and never again

Overload

How much is too much? You tell me. I went down deep, real deep, to pull out the vibe, the right kind of wrongness. The voices you hear? Those are from an old experiment—machine generated glossolalia, gibberish wrapped around a year-old thought and thrown into Logic Pro, stirred up into something that feels like it’s whispering just for you.

Blotto Jive

There's a light in the sky.
There's a light in your eyes.
Out of the dreaming, the world comes alive.
There's a light in the space.
There's a light in your mind.
After the dreaming, a world came alive.
Out of the darkness emerges the light.

Brought down by freak minds.
You fell by the way side.
They found out.
You were the last to know.
Sent where the wind blows.
Give me a free mind.
Keep the rest.
 I'll stay on side.
Held on to finally let it go.
The shadows only showed you toward the light.
After the dream...
You come alive.

There's a small glint of light.
In the corner of your mind.
Out of the darkness, you rose toward the light.
There was light at the start.
There is light at the heart.
Out of the dreaming emerges the light.
After the darkness is pierced by the light.

Dragged up, paid no mind.
You drifted toward the dark side.
No idea where to go.
Found out too slow.
Give me my free mind.
Forget your downsides.
Held on to finally let it go.
The darkness only guides you toward the light.
After the dream...
There comes your life.

Hold up the light.
To guide you home.

Preyed upon by strong minds.
Pressed up. 
Passed by.
When they make cuts.
You'll be the first to go.
The light from your window.
Forget your freak mind.
I'll get there in my own time.
Hold on. 
Or let it go.
The tunnel only leads towards the light.
Out of the dark...
You come to light.

Brought down by freak minds.
You fell by the way side.
They found out, you were the last to know.
Sent where the wind blows.
Give me a free mind.
Keep the rest, I'll stay on side.
Held on to finally let it go.
The shadows only showed you toward the light.
After the dream... 
You come alive.

Imbibe With Me

The Rose Theatre existed for only 17 years before its demolition in 1604. In the days of Shakespeare's tragedies this was surely a sad tale indeed. 
With 22 theatres in London at the end of the Tudor dynasty these bawdy wooden palaces were situated on the rough southern side of the Thames where cock fighting and bear baiting were also prevalent attractions. The remains of the Rose Theatre's foundations were discovered during recent redevelopment and are now a much heralded visitor attraction.

Track: Recorders / Soprano Sax / Flutes / Tenor Sax / Clarinet / Beats

Tudor Rose Blues

Cast of Characters:

Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – foundational acoustic and electric guitars, distorted electric guitar, and the seed idea

Mistermark – @user-432503709 – Mark – vocals, lyrics, high organ, toy piano, percussion, sound effects, production, editing, mix

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– 5-string banjo solo, electric guitar

J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- low organ, piano, synth flute, sound effects

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, percussion 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – 4-string fretless bass

Composition – The Eclectic Collective

     This song began its life as a hauntingly exquisite guitar chord progression that Tez came up with and shared with the rest of us. He also stacked a couple of other guitar tracks in there for good measure. 
     Ken was first up, adding his drums, then later his pots and pans percussion. As he was doing that, Josh was coming up with his bass line, and they did their little dance of back and forth until the rhythm section was set. 
     Mark came in around the same time, though, and added his unique, Waitsian vocals with the lyrics that he wrote for it, too. He also added some really amazing organ parts, a toy piano which you can hear right after the banjo solo, and percussion that add a solid foundation for his voice and add magic throughout the song. 
     Stephen followed shortly after with the big stroke guitar chords, and also came up with the amazing banjo solo you hear in there, too. 
     Last, but not least, JJ came in with his organ and electric piano to seal the deal with the melodies and ambience. Then he and Mark added the cool sound effects you hear throughout, too.
     Every great song needs a great producer, and Mark filled the duty on this one. He has proved himself to be a masterful editor, producer, and mixer, and we are lucky to have him as part of the team.
    This one is an homage to Tom Waits in a deliberate way. We're all big fans, and tried to do something in his unique style. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
 
Original lyrics by Mistermark:

I got something hidden in my closet 
that I don’t want you to see 
A little like a shady deposit
And it’s bound to incriminate me

Well now some might call it a skeleton 
Like a raincoat filled with bones
See I been hangin’ it there since I don’t know when
And I just can’t leave it alone

Me and Bill rolling bones in a gambling hall 
I threw snake eyes but Bill counted three
I took his accusation just a little too far 
Then everybody went quiet as they stared at me

Now the finger bone’s connected to the trigger
And the hand bone’s connected to me
And every day my secret’s gettin’ bigger
Soon enough I’ll be swinging from a tree

Coz I got something hidden in my closet 
that I don’t want you to see 
I done made a shady deposit
And it’s bound to incriminate me

Well now some might call it a skeleton 
Like a raincoat filled with bones
See I been hiding it there since I don’t know when
And I just can’t leave it alone
(repeat

Worm Hole

I just can't sleep. Sleep thief, why are you picking on me?
From the album "Röckers" (2024)

Lyrics:
I've tried sleeping pills
And chamomile tea
The woman on the screen 
She's whispering at me
Sometimes, she would crinkle a bag
And make a sound all soft to my ear
Reminds me of like, being back in the womb
Sleep thief
Why have you done me wrong?

Sleep thief
Why are you picking on me?
No sleep. It's affecting my concentration
My conversations
I go off onto a tangent
Those hamsters in my head
They're running on the wheel
Like they're abandoned
Sleep thief

I've been cherry-picking slogans from Chairman Mao
I've been slinking around
The electric underground
I keep my demeanor flat
I keep my emotional needs at bay
I've been holding in 
Emotions too deep
For too long
Sleep thief

The lack of sleep it leaves me on the edge
I'm full of kykeon
And a spiritual  blockage
My escalation of terror
Can Hunter S Thompson still be my pallbearer?
(No! Because he's dead)
Sleep thief
Why are you picking on me?

Sleep Thief

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 songs 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.

Mysterious Modes

A short song loosely based on a real guy I worked with in a CD/Record store. He was one of those guys who knew everything in their musical area of interest, from the most obscure to commercial. C'mon, you've met this guy!
From the album "Röckers" (2024)

Lyrics:
Are you looking for some metal?
You're gonna have to wait around for a while
Are you looking for some metal?
Yeah, you're gonna have to wait around

For record store Eric
Cause that's his section
And he's possessive about it
Record store Eric
He knows all the metal that you need
Whether it's Screamo
On Japanese Imports
Death metal blue?
Just write down what you want
On a Post-It
I swear
He's gonna call you back
He's gonna call you back

Record store Eric
He's a rock & roll cleric

Ahh, well, we don't touch anything in his section
He says
Eric: "Just keep it in the backroom."
Eric:  " I'll shelve it when I get in."

He knows all the metal bands that you want
If you want a band from the 90s
Put out one album
On Sub Atomic Records
From Reseda
His hair line's receding!
Record store Eric
Rock & Roll cleric
If you want Nu-Metal
Eric: " Why the hell would you want that?"

Record Store Eric

Some of our art is made on computers, some of it is made by hand. We are particularly interested in that gray area in between where you cant really tell. All of what we create here is one work laid out in segments, all connected. The Mystic Tape Deck universe is vast and explores all manner of adding meaning to our lives, while pondering meaninglessness.

Please consider supporting our project and helping us complete the work. We make books and cds that go with them. We also have a graphic novel and a custom oracle deck in the works. All part of the story.

Greetings to you: readers, beaders, seekers, wanderers, wonderers, outsiders, rebels, fantasy gamers, freaks, mythologists, philosophers, appreciators, creators, perpetuators of beauty, coveters of mysterious objects, collectors of counter culture, the curious, the questioners, the unusual, the unique, the star children, the light workers, shadow integrators, diviners, alchemists, hermits, monks and popes, the saviors and prophets, the builders and destroyers of worlds, the old ones, the young ones, the rollers of boulders, the sun orbiters, the morning star dewdrops and twinkle toed dreamers of dreams, you mystic shining beacons, you crossers and denizens of the void, reality shapers, universe makers and underworld freaks.

"A prominent feature of avant-garde music is to break through various rules and regulations of traditional culture, in order to transcend established creative principles and appreciation habits. Avant-garde music pursues novelty in musical form and style, insisting that art is above everything else; thus, it creates a transcendental and mysterious sound world. Hint, metaphor, symbol, association, imagery, synesthesia and perception are widely used in avant-garde music techniques to excavate the mystery of human heart and the flow of consciousness, so that many seemingly unrelated but essentially very important events interweave into multi-level structures and forms."
