Mark Barrott - Island Life (Joe Morris Remix) FREE DL

only wanna make you happy 
sometimes wonder if i can
bear the expense of things 
put on me like some atlassian
there's nothing left to be holdn on to 
i didn't already find
on a fool’s journey through 
unconsciousnesses sacred heart and mind
standing showing barely growing
beneath the hedgerow treason is taking
hold

there’s a place where we escape 
inside our minds
some take the trip more often
desperate again to keep it aligned
but when the weight’s not worth the lift 
I feel heaven's light
shrugging shoulders are here for you 
to lean on in case the end just might—
arms left empty but still’ve got plenty 
of problems to haul around with nothing to
hold

so let’s go chase the new whatever until this feels fine
let’s go chase the new whatever just to feel fine
go chase the new whatever together we can waste our time
let’s go chase the new whatever until the end of time
shaking steady at the ready 
releasing control reason is taking
hold

if anything is holdn me from being pure love 
all the time
pull out the anchor
unfurl the sheet
snap off the mooring line
abort the mission 
that i got roped in 
before i realized
that I can’t match up to my higher self 
weighed down by lies
standing showing barely growing
beneath the hedgerow treason is taking
hold

Alabaster DePlume 
“Peach”
Debt Records
28th Sept 2015

A peach is a sweet and soft and good thing with a stone in the middle, and this is an album about being a person. Smartphones, analogue tape, valve microphones, computers, group games and a grand banquet were used to create this collection of songs, tunes and monologues, that use a series of contradictions to talk about being alive. 

Long-term collaborators John Ellis (piano) and Paddy Steer (percussion, bass, lapsteel, synth) join Angus Fairbairn (vocal, tenor sax) along with eleven other musicians and nearly a hundred other voices in presenting sounds likened to Ethiopian jazz and Japanese folk music. Scripts and vocal delivery evoke Ivor Cutler, Emo Philips and Leonard Cohen, for this combination of theatre, live-captured music, songs, humour and philosophy.

It is a unique collection, made by unusual means designed around the artistry and conveyance of its many contributors. Created over three years in London and Manchester, it’ll be celebrated in those two towns on the dates below, following its vinyl and digital release on Manchester label Debt Records, on 28th September 2015.

A composer, musician and performer, Alabaster DePlume (Angus Fairbairn) has toured northern Europe, appeared on UK national radio and developed theatre for Bram Stoker Festival in Dublin. His many combined arts projects are based around music, and personal inclusion. In this, his third album, he has employed as many voices as he can, in conveying a method of survival he’s been taught, he says, by everyone he’s met.

Hope grows naturally, like a
dandelion between the bricks.
I feel good…

12 – Whisky Story Time

Finally got to do a cross country trip with my brother. We started in New York City and the finish line was San Francisco. Never thought I'd see the wild horses of California during this life time. Such a rare thing In a world of robots and screens. 

Own this song!

CITYGIRL

Rolf Harris cover by Henri Salvador recorded in 1966, best enjoyed around 5AM in the summertime, when the sun rises.

For Radio Nova (Fr), HØJDE composed, recorded, and clipped a track in Lockdown. It illustrates the apprehension of this period, through moments of doubts, creation, impatience, troubles, pleasures. It's called 𝗟 '𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻, or how intimacy can become captivating.

I invite you to watch the video clip here:

Sitting In A Chair, Blinking (Extended Version)

After the break up of his band The Birthday Party in 1982, Nick Cave formed Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds who released their debut album From Her To Eternity in 1984. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have since released fourteen studio albums; and the band's current output remains as vital and explorative as those early pioneering sessions recorded at Hansa Studios in Berlin.

One of the most critically acclaimed acts working today, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ influence has been profound and far-reaching: artists as diverse as Johnny Cash, Metallica and The Arctic Monkeys have all covered their work.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds -- Nick Cave, Warren Ellis, Martyn Casey, Jim Sclavunos, Thomas Wydler and Conway Savage -- have been working together for nearly two decades. Push The Sky Away, the band’s fifteenth studio album, was released in 2013.
