DREAMING.


WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES I PRAY IM GONNA HAVE THAT DREAM AGAIN 
THE ONE WHERE LIFE'S A BEACH 'N' IT'S MY FEET NOT MY HEAD BURIED IN THE SAND
WHERE THE SKY IS BLUE , THE SEA A TURQUOISE HUE
WHERE GOLDEN SANDS LEAD TO FORIEGHN LANDS
WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES IM PRAY I'M GONNA FIND THAT PLACE AGAIN 

WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES I PRAY ILL NEVER FEEL THAT PAIN AGAIN
LIKE WHEN LIFE'S A BITCH, A SEVEN YEAR ITCH, DONT FEEL THE SAME
A BAD DOG DAY MAKES SAD EYES WHEEP, DRAGON FIRE WORDS COME OUT WHEN I SPEAK   
SO I CLOSE MY EYES AND PRAY I NEVER FEEL THE SAME AGAIN

NO TELLING WHAT WILL BE
MIND RUN AWAY WITH ME
NO TELLING WHAT WILL BE
MIND RUN AWAY WITH ME 

WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES I PRAY I'M GONNA WAKE UP YESTERDAY
BACK WHEN LIFE WAS SWEET, DAYS WERE CARE FREE AND TROUBLES JUST DRIFT AWAY  
SLAP HAPPY DAYS BATHED IN BRIGHT SUN RAYS - A DEVIL MAY CARE ATTITUDE I SWEAR
WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES I PRAY IM GONNA FIND THAT PEACE AGAIN

WANNA FIND THAT PEACE AGAIN
WANNA FIND THAT PEACE AGIAN 

NO TELLING WHAT WILL BE
MIND RUN AWAY WITH ME 
NO TELLING WHAT WILL BE  
MIND RUN AWAY WITH ME

Dreaming.

Fuck It!

Halfway Between Here and New Orleans ©
Original - Riff Beach ( RiffWerx - 2016, Revised 2022 )
Lady Luck…..
Well, she left me out in Reno
Just one more throw
Before the red-eye home
You know I just wanna’ hop a streetcar
Or, maybe, take a shiny limousine
I’m so tired of being crammed into airplanes
That kinda’ travel just leaves me feeling mean
(Chorus)
Well, there’s sure something in living sunrise to sunset…..
But, I’m not sure exactly what it means?
And, just some thoughts on my way back to you
Halfway - between here - and New Orleans
Remember that time down on Decatur
Or, when we first met on Magazine?
We knew that sooner - or - later
We’d end up halfway between here….
…..and New Orleans
And somewhere over the Mighty Mississippi
You know you’re right there in all my dreams
All the time we’ll spend together
Halfway between Here…. and ….. New Orleans

Jon shared “Monkey Parts” with me while we were discussing an unreleased track we were working on. Jon’s original track instantly inspired me and the lyrics easily flowed onto the paper (actually I write all my lyrics in Apple Notes, lol) and then into GarageBand (using my Apple headphone mic to everyone who mixes my vocals exasperation). I held onto the unmixed track for a while (really for no good reason besides it wasn’t in the stars’ plan until now) and then finally worked up the urge to “git er done.” 

As for the lyrics, the last time I had anything weed related was probably 11 years ago in California. At that time, all things marijuana were relatively easy to acquire since many of my friends had “doctor’s notes” to go to the medical dispensaries. It was fun to try all the new novel dope products people were making and selling. Since living in Oregon, for over 6 years now, I have not once thought about partaking in the herb, even though I can easily walk to several cannabis stores from my home. I think there are more pot stores in the Portland area than convenient stores, I do not live in a reefer desert, lol. But still, I was inspired to write a song about maryjane.

Lyrics:
Thinkin’ of a sushi roll

I was feeling alright my baby
Until you ruined my vibe with crazy
Breaking bad habits is not easy
Yea Yea Yea

I was feeling alright my people
Until ya’ll ruined my vibe with fecal
Specially when my mind is feeble 
Yea Yea Yea

But I shoulda saw it coming 
Now my Karma’s got me running  
Fruitions always gunning 
This life
Future life 
Past bad acts got me on slumming
Always on the worry 
On what I am becoming

So with my right thumb and my two right fingers 
I set my intention as I’m foldin’ up the papers
Right right right right

Thinkin’ of a sushi roll

We was smoking our karma 
We was smoking our karma 
Many happy returns, yea

Thinkin’ of a sushi roll
Thinkin’ of a sushi roll

Good intentions in my high
Good intentions floating by 
My vibe guides me through the knot 
Interlinked eternally
Yea Yea Yea

I was feeling stressed out my baby
And then I lifted my vibe with hazy 
Breaking bad habits is not easy
Yea Yea Yea

When I’m feeling stressed out my people
I gotta lift my vibe pineal
Especially when my mind is feeble 
Yea Yea Yea

Yea some say it’s in the dirt
But It don’t matter when it hits it still hurts
Attracted by ya’ll hertz 
Best to sit still
Keep chill
Let the mind go inert 
Purify ’til the soul reverts

Use my thumbnail to press down and tuck the edges
I set my intention and seal it with some praises 
Right right right right
Thinkin’ of a sushi roll

We was smoking our karma 
We was smoking our karma 
Many happy returns, yea

Thinkin’ of a sushi roll
Thinkin’ of a sushi roll

Good intentions in my high
Good intentions floating by 
My vibe guides me through the knot 
My vibe guides me

Lyrics
--------------------------
I cut the tree and I hammer the nail
I fetch the water and I carry the pail
Harvest the wheat, and I bundle the bale

Fasten the saddle, the bridle and bit
I shoe the horses and I shovel their shit
I dig forever in the bottomless pit

I'm turning wrenches and I'm fueling the jet
My brow is furrowed and it's blistered with sweat
I'm on a boat with a hook and a net

I'm in the engine room, I'm driving the train
I'm climbing poles in the wind and the rain
I load containers from a towering crane

Repair the derricks for the men who get paid
I'm tugging triples up a slippery grade
I built the factory where the factories are made

I'm in the kitchen now preparing your meal
With hogs to slaughter and potatoes to peel
I hone the blade and I sharpen the steel

This one's for you Santi...
Two months ago our dear and wonderfully talented friend and musician Santi Caballero Mendez was killed in a tragic motorcycle accident in his hometown of Barcelona.  Sam and I had recorded over 50 tunes together yet we had never spoken.  To honor Santi, we have created our tribute Missing You - with 17 different musicians around the world who had recorded with Sam in my music.  The music brings out so many emotions for me, sadness, joy, passion, playfulness, and of course the incredible latin spirit.   Each section of the piece has different musicians, and so many musicians appear and reappear throughout the piece - but often with different supporting casts.  In the end, a moving tribute from so many of Soundcloud's very finest.  Thank you all for joining in as we honor Santi - and thank you Santi...we're Missing You:

Missing You - for Santi Caballero Mendez - with 17 Soundcloud friends

(Free WAV Download available here under '••• More'; and eventually as part of my BandCamp PWWO #07 album)

Good afternoon my SC music friends. I have a really nice one to share with you today. It’s my first time collaborating with the exceptional and enigmatic ambient artist, Wodwo (https://soundcloud.com/user-364196783-552705040, https://rayrobinson.bandcamp.com/); and the results are quite captivating, iffen I do say so myself. 

If you haven’t encountered Wodwo’s ambient works yet, dim the lights… get the headphones (maybe not in that order, so you don’t trip over anything). His creations (to the workings of my mind) are soundscapes perfectly designed as launching points for me to paint my own stories into... the groundwork is laid so spaciously and evocatively. 

Pulled directly from his bio, ‘born to be mild’ sums his works up perfectly; beautiful sound sculptures that let the mind go quiet and go adventuring… for just a little while.

So without further delay, we offer you our first collaborative effort, ‘Paint Eventually Peels”. We hope you enjoy. :)

★Mrs Rhymes - Hideaway
https://soundcloud.com/mrsrhymes/hideaway

This piece is based on the original by Mrs Rhymes introduced above, with my guitar playing overdubbed.
A big thank you to Mrs Rhymes for agreeing to release this recording :)

Some time ago, I needed to do some thinking about my DTM system and was reviewing my music data.  At that time, I suddenly noticed this song by Mrs Rhymes.  About a year ago, I think.  I had a preliminary recording of my guitar to go along with this wonderful piece.  Remembering that, I played it back and listened.  I didn't like my guitar playing, even though it was just a temporary recording for notes.  I don't think the sounds and phrases I used at that time match the original song.  Compared to that, the original song is still great.  So I grabbed my guitar and started recording.  A few hours later, I was in the process of uploading my freshly finished work here.

The key of this song is C#, and I think that what we should be aware of as a performance style is "B♭m/C# pentatonic".
I do not mix tapping, sweeping, or other fancy playing techniques in my guitar playing with this outstanding piece. I tried to keep the accompaniment very simple. This excellent piece, which I picked up as an example this time, will be finished with two things in mind: "B♭m/C# pentatonic". However, in a blues scale song, one song uses four pentatonic forms. Therefore, first of all, I believe that it is very important to be aware of "two things" on a daily basis and to practice guitar playing repeatedly.

And before we understand it in words, what we value most is the encounter with works and artists that we can continue to enjoy playing along with our favorite music as many times as we want, even ten times if necessary. Right?

The title JoyBot is a reference to the nascent sex robot market.

This song is the result of a team effort and was composed in collaboration with AudioBake. The first draft came from him and it was a very interesting techno track. I tried to stick to the style, but ended up turning the song into a strange mix of industrial and progressive rock (sorry, my bad).

The vast majority of the samples were kindly provided by AudioBake (the hardcoreAXAcidLoops package is fantastic).

AudioBake's excellent music production is available on SoundCloud and worth checking out:

The NIN influence here is undeniable and I recommend checking out Trent Reznor's old material.

AIR
Music by Mirabell & Overdrive

Air is a song produced in collaboration with Norwegian singer-songwriter Mirabell and is clearly inspired by J. S. Bach's Air on the G string. This track is an experimental work that mixes modern vocals with baroque music.

Mirabell owns a magnificent voice and is a talented instrumentalist (she plays piano and harp). I recommend a visit to her SC page: https://soundcloud.com/mirabell

Strings are from Trailer Strings Kontakt library. Choir from Amadeus Symphonic Orchestra Kontakt library. Harpsichord from Fluffy Audio Rinascimento Kontakt library. Soloists are samples taken from the Noiiz website.

Cover art is the sculpture "The Angel" by Benjamin Victor, available on Pinterest at https://br.pinterest.com/pin/566961040602686459/

Hope you enjoy.

May I be able to make a normal song to all tastes? This rock ballad was my best opportunity, though I had to prog it a bit... well, please tell me.

Pic taken by myself at a beach near my hometown, a cloudy morning about two weeks ago.

Letra  /  Lyrics

El sol está quieto (…)  /  The Sun is still (…)

Hace mucho tiempo que el sol está quieto.  /  Since a long time ago the Sun is still.
Lo quieto del sol da lugar al invierno.  /  Stillness of the Sun originates the winter.
Invierno que expresa su frío con viento.  /  Winter which expresses its coldness with wind.
El viento en la playa moja mi cuerpo.  /  The wind at the beach wets my body.

Mi cuerpo mojado sufre en silencio.  /  My wet body suffers silently.
Silencio que siempre me trae recuerdos.  /  Silence which always brings me memories.
Recuerdos que se agrupan en pensamientos.  /  Memories which get grouped in thoughts.
Pensamientos que pronto parecen deseos.  /  Thoughts which soon seem to be desires.

Deseos que te tienen a ti en el centro.  /  Desires which have you in the middle.
Tú en el centro pero yo más lejos.  /  You in the middle but me further away.
Lejos de todo lo que llamamos nuestro.  /  Far from everything we call ours.
Nuestro pasado es ahora lo primero.  /  Our past is now the first thing.

Primero de todo te echaré de menos.  /  First of all I will miss you.
Menos de un día ya se me hace eterno.  /  Less than one day already feels eternal to me.
Eterno fue el día en que decidí no vernos, más.  /  Eternal was the day when I decided not to meet, more.
Mas, vernos me hace salir de este infierno.  /  But, us meeting helps me get rid of this hell.

Infierno que pronto cambiaré por el cielo.  /  Hell which soon I will change for heaven.
Cielo que sólo tú puedes tenerlo.  /  Heaven which only you can own.
Tenerlo contigo es lo que más quiero.  /  To own it with you is what I want the most.
Quiero estar contigo en alma y cuerpo.  /  I want to be with you in soul and body.

Mi cuerpo mojado, en la playa hace viento.  /  My wet body, at the beach it is windy.
Viento que expresa el frío del invierno.  /  Wind which expresses the coldness of the winter.
Invierno debido a que el sol está quieto.  /  Winter due to the Sun being still.
El sol está quieto hace mucho tiempo.  /  The Sun is still since a long time ago.

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."
