Sparkling Waves: 15 Shiny new songs from the SoundCloud community

My old mac  dieth a death so here's a bit of a kitchen table bash around .   My fingers are not what they were so i play what i can find.  someday I'll probably wind up bashing out a beat with my head on the refrigerator and singing along. I hope you are all well. If you're dead you'll obviously know it's nothing to worry about...                                I woke up this morning or at least I think that I did...I found my medication and I wrestled with the lid....my bathroom mirror is telling me that I'm not half the man I used to be.....

. I've got a hole in my gut I'm really feeling my age, I'm paying the price for my wicked little ways, I was out last night with a woman from the moon, she says that better days are coming and they're coming soon but I ain't half the man I used to be.

Half the Man. ( Stevek )

This is the story of an elderly gentleman who succumbed to the charms of a beautiful young woman and was only used by her for her own ends.

Such a big disappointment
I feel like I´m being used
as I´m sitting here in silence
just hurt and so confused

I wasn´t     much more than     your stepping stone
a stupid     sugar daddy     who paid it all alone

you made me     think we were     more than just friends
you took all     that I had     every song, every cent

INTRO

Such a great enchantment
your voice can make tough men cry
once you get the attention
your beauty blinds the guys

BRIDGE    ohohoho

CHORUS

INTRO

Such a huge illusion
all the promises you broke
among all guys you´ve been foolin'
I was just another bloke

BRIDGE   ohoho

Everything Must Go

Sugar Daddy  (Bye-Bye Paris Girl)

This is another collaboration that was written by STONERJAZZ, who is without a doubt one of the most major dudes out there 
Once again joined by the amazingly creative Uziel and the magical voice of Janine Levinson.  Also a first for me - working with the mighty Tea Are Sea

It's an awesome group of creative pros and I'm once again excited to be asked to play on a track with this crew.


Uziel sings, and co-produced with TMS (amazing work from her that saved us from disaster)
TRC layed down a beautiful foundation Synth track in the second half
TMS plays his Sitar and guitar and E-Bow throughout
Janine sings
Stonerjazz Lyrics/Synth/ roland boss bass and drum engine and sings.

ASTEROIDS
LYRics. by SToNeRJAZZ

Some asteroids in outer space are made of cheese.
We only need to capture one of these
And we can feed everyone in the world for free.
I'm hoping it won't be a Roquefort or a Brie,
A nice sharp cheddar would be just fine with me.

Make a list check the box then move on
Lock the door, mop the floor, do the chores then move on.
Love the world if you're able, if you're not please set the table
Time to eat, wash your feet, eat your meat
Repeat with rice and beans and broccoli.

High speed snow and sleet outside
While we practice worldwide genocide
In the name of economic prosperity
How bout you, if you were boss what would You do?

Wood nymph hiding stealthily behind a giant Douglas fir
Off to the west. A most majestic tree.
She took my hand that girl with diamonds in her eyes
And said now follow me to a clearing where they were singing songs of love and war.

Getting back trying to unlock the doors
Crucifixion is the perfect antidote for lethargy
Oh can't you see.
If we had our druthers we'd be getting back to where we were before
Even though that bridge is burning brightly in the middle of a balmy night
The dog wood bloomed
Reminded me it used to be her favorite tree
When she still loved me like a bell that rings in distant memories

Thank you for listening :)

Lyrics:
I went out
after a long time. 
I saw hustle
hate and crime.

Don´t lose hope, resist.

Damned un-cosy 
around the world, 
adult desperate 
boys and girls.

Don´t lose hope, resist.

Seem no better 
times ahead.
People start their days 
filled up with dread.

Don´t lose hope, resist.

Confusion seems to 
rule the day.
Even sunny days 
seem to be grey.

Don´t lose hope, resist.

Where is beauty? 
Where is faith?
A seed in the heart, 
which we must raise

Don´t lose hope, resist.

Hope

Greetings all you fun and funky SC musicians. I don’t typically upload remastered versions of a song as a new track. I usually just replace the old with the new, and change the title to reflect the remaster. But this one is special, for a few reasons (and if you’re not much into personalized mixing details, you may want to skip this liner note).

First (and most importantly)… I thought I’d lost the ability to edit the original tracks for this song. The last time I opened it up in Logic (updating it for the 2018 album remaster), the siren voices were all messed up (automation in Alchemy can have odd results sometimes). I just assumed the original native file was broken forever, because I no longer had access to that version of Logic. I had to do the album remaster from my only existing mix… and it was definitely lacking.

4 years later, I’m so glad I took a chance on reopening the native file when I concluded this ‘Siren’ trilogy. All the sounds/automations were exactly as I had left them. Prior to this attempt, I just assumed the worst, and never tried again. Thankfully, I was wrong. :D

Second… the remaster turned out much better than I hoped; and the differences were so satisfying, I thought it might be fun to have both versions up (for a side by side comparison, for any interested musicians out there. Here's the older version: https://soundcloud.com/grevusanjl/siren-rising).

So why does this one sound so much better than the original version? (And please take all of this with a grain of salt. I’m no pro. But I have discovered what works for me.)

Honestly, a tremendous amount of credit goes to having a much better understanding of Compression. For many folks, Compression is almost a dirty word. Just the title of the plug-in alone confused me at first. Why would I possibly want to compress my sounds, when I liked them as is? 

But it turns out (for me at least) that the different Compression options really shine when chosen specifically, and used minimally. As an example (and I’m not sure if your DAW offers similar options, but), Studio VCA works brilliantly with strings, female vocals and many of my favorite synths. But Studio FET works great on drums. Etc. And while some might cringe at the idea, I absolutely love what Soft Distortion does to most tracks as well. Used in mild amounts, Soft Distortion adds a phenomenal amount of spacial quality to the sound. I don’t use this one all of the time, but I bet I use it at least 75% of the time now (and Compression in general on about 95% of the tracks).  So there you go… I’m definitely a big fan of Compression… when used responsibly. :)

In addition, I’ve also learned a lot about EQing since I first did this song in 2017; so much so, that I was actually baffled by some of my earlier choices. So a large amount of the repair/update time for the 2022 remaster was spent on getting the EQing for each track set up more effectively.

And finally, I had the opportunity to give the full mix a healthy rebuild. After 5 years, you’re undoubtedly going to have a very fresh perspective on a piece. And I realized a lot of the sounds simply weren’t in their optimal positions in the stereo field. I also reconsidered where sounds faded in and out, and how intensely they did so… and I updated all of that as well. 

And there you have it, the story/history behind one of my all time personal favorites. I’m so glad I had an opportunity to revisit this one (while leaving all the original instruments true to form), and I hope you enjoy all the latest sound enhancements as well. I’m excited to hear what you think of my ’Siren Rising (2022 Remaster)’. :D

WTF! The Musical

Siren Rising - 2022 REMASTER

This is the next in a line of heavy dub songs that Tez and I are releasing. We, or rather Tez, figured out how to create really authentic riddims. So now, it's a bonanza! I really like working with Tez. He's very capable and has excellent musical taste. He is also a certified wizard on the mixing deck. In this song, you'll hear me play bass and organ. You'll hear him play guitar and like I said, the riddim. He also produced it as mixed it. We hope you like it!

Is This Who I Think It Is 

Another tumble ‘cross the dance floor
A tender hold onto someone I call my own 
A look into her eyes that lingers
Another drink that goes from loving hand to hand

Is this who I think it is
A touch and a blown kiss
I look at her
I look at him
Is this who I think it is

A frozen minute in a lifetime
I lurch and stumble to the dancers of the night 
As I push myself between them 
My life with her is playing out in black and white

I wonder at the blind man
Who was missing all the clues
Once a happy go lucky guy
Now with leaden shoes

I am dancing in a wasteland
She is speaking but I cannot hear a sound
Her face resigned to do to her duty
I can see him and his eyes are shifting round

Is This Who I Think It Is

Firstly a big thanks to Shane of Harmful If Swallowed for agreeing to do do this male duet. It’s a first for me and probably for him, so a very interesting concept. It’s been a song that’s been hanging around a while just waiting for the right type of vocalist to agree. I am a great admirer of Shane’s work because of his fine lyrics and interpretations of real life. 
The song Elephant In The Room was wrote over five years ago with my son Owen  who would of been around 18 at the time. He had got into playing guitar and dabbling in song writing so my role was helping him with melody and lyrics. 
It’s a song I always thought had great potential and as I wasn’t that active in music myself at the time only a raw acoustic version existed.
This version is what we used as a sketch and Noobly transformed it into a full blown production. Seriously Noobly is a real talent and absolute pleasure to work with so respect to him.
There as been slight lyric changes but the melody is the same.
The song is about to close friends sitting in one of their living rooms in silence. There is an elephant in the room for both of them because a serious matter is not being discussed and neither of them are opening the conversation. The one  as done something really bad to the other so use your imagination.
The conversation is only happening inside their heads so hence a male duet of thoughts.
Hope you enjoy the song as much as we did creating it.

Elephant In The Room  -  Conscience of Kings feat Harmful If Swallowed

The ancient metropolis of Istanbul probably derives its name from the Greek 'Stin Polis' ('in the city')(according to Sean Lusk's excellent book 'The Second Sight of Zachary Cloudesly)having previously been Constantinople the capital of the Byzantine Empire.
This incredible city spans the continents of Europe and Asia and reflects aspects of both in its culture and people.

After 10 songs of jazzy singer songwriter it's time for a change. But not much! As science based as we are there's still that feeling of karma or whatever. So - better do some good!

Better do some Good.      

Hey I don’t mind complicity in drinking all that wine
It’s good to get the wheels up, but just from time to time
But dwelling on this comfort food is brewing up a blood red sky 
You lapsing into navel gaze is goading kharma’s battle cry 

Better do some good oh darlin’ 
Make a start tonight
You never know who’s out there watching
Know your wrong from right
Do  do do do do do do do

It’s no good you walking round as tho it’s you who’s missing out
With lips so taught and victim eyes 
You’re looking like a sour kraut
You’re always going to lose the war living in this ugly mess 
If Gods don’t see u clean the floor 
The frontline beckons to the West

It’s a round and a round you’re swirling down
Consumed and jealous
You’re wanting needing ‘n nursing greed
In a sump of trench warfare
Aaah ooooh 
Nothing but the best 
Everyone at your behest 
Better do some good tonight 
Better do some good tonight

BETTER DO SOME GOOD
