Just for something different, here's a kind of Christmas track. This is the instrumental version. A version with vocals is coming, but it works well as an instrumental so I'll release both.

Letters to Santa [instrumental, version 1 - OLD]

Starred

Soon

Fun collaboration with poet Adam Cooper :)

January and June 

lyrics by Adam Cooper

Blood-red skies and dirt brown eyes
The only specks of colour inside
in my honestly
black-white mind

Quaking Earth and stormy seas
The only cracks of sound tonight
In our hollowed-out 
wrecked burned tree

I was January and you were June
I was flowing water and you were flame
And between you and I
only distance filled the air

Thunder, sighs and empty days
The only remnants from then
Of the mess we made
At least I tried

I was January and you were June
I was flowing water and you were flame
And between you and I
only distance filled the air

January and June

Looking back to the time you went and stole my braces
Body Attack was our nickname years before they caught us
My anxious arms are brushing up to yours
Oh is this love or something?

If you're a girl you should spread your wings, the world should know it
If you're a girl then your head will be gone in the morning
You don't believe me, you don't remember
That it was love or something

I don't believe that good things come to those who gloat
All that I know is this feeling in my bones

That I control what I control and I know what I know
It spent so many years just buried inside of me
Reawakened by the will of the burning sun
Now I'm riding on a fast wave
And I know what I know, I control what I control
I was dead until I saw your shining face
If I'll make it out alive I'll never know
Cause I'm riding on a fast wave

What do you do when the one you want is two years older?
What do you do when your mom and dad won't let you near them
What do I do? When your brother died I was not enough
What do I do? when the judgment comes and Jesus doesn't come

I don't believe that good things come to those who gloat
All that I know is I'll drink before I go

Cause I control what I control and I know what I know
It spent so many years just buried inside of me
Reawakened by the will of the burning sun
Now I'm riding on a fast wave
And I know what I know, I control what I control
I was dead until I saw your shining face
If I'll make it out alive I'll never know
I'm riding on a fast wave

A piece of trash, a heart attack
And you said I don't believe you
This thing I lack, a monkey on my back
And you said I don't believe you

Am I imagining you?

The Coockoo Revisited #7

Recorded ~1994, this is a 20-minute cassette album composed, produced and recorded by Chicago drummer and composer Benjamin Kerr Miranda (1972-2015).  The seeds of Ben's fearless harmonic experimentation, preternatural facility with polyrhythms and asymmetrical structures, plus his lifelong love affair with discovering "natural" music hidden in technology are all beginning to flower here. Tracks include:

SIDE 1:
Candala
Pit of Me
Two Table Tops
SIDE 2:
Never Silent
Paraffin
Whimper 

Kerr Tape

These are songs that I've taken and turned a little melancholy for a new series of mine called "Will it Sad?".
