Works well and I like the simple perc ... bones ?

This is gonig on my 'Eclectic Music Connections' list :-)

This is going on my 'Eclectic Music Connections' list :-)

It does have a bit of a Neil Young feel to it.  Great tune. Excellent production!!

It was 1995, I had already acquired my trusty Alesis SR-16 "Dr No" but not hooked it up in stereo yet on my 4-track cassette recorder.

This track is one of the more fun I made in those days, thought I'd share it here. For the occasion, I properly mixed and mastered it in such a way to keep it's original character intact as much as possible. I did put *some* fancy effect to stereoize the vocals a little, and there is a subtle stereo reverb on the drums.. Things like that, but that's just to make it palatable for the modern crowd. This is after all an original recording, no edits, no overdubs.

Thinking about putting an entire 'legacies' album together. Would anyone be interested in that?

The very mature lyrics:

Salvation song
Connect me if I'm wrong
Me I am cracked, broken and torn
Haven't been clean ever since I was born

But I don't bear much pain
I'm not gonna jump no train
Every single hour every single day
Guess life is just a game

Some say I am insane
Some say I am just the same
As all them youth rebel rabble rebel rabble
Well I know better but you won't hear me tell
Everyone lives his own little hell
Let them turn around in their own smell
I let them feel bad if they let me feel well
It be alright with me

I know I only live to be
I know this is all you can see
I live to be just like the trees
And the flowers and the bees

Some say I am insane
Some say I am just the same
As all them you rebel rabble rebel rabble
Let live through their own hell
Let them live with their own smell

Salvation

Salvation song
Connect me if I'm wrong
Me I am cracked broken and torn
Haven't been clean ever since I was born

Some say salvation
Everyone, everyone...
Rebel rabble rebel rabble
Loser! Loser!

～ Lyrics ～

A gentle breeze makes me feel good in the warm sunshine.
The white sands glitter in the scent of ocean.
My heart is so quiet as if the picture of the smiling Virgin Mary I have looked at once.
Why am I here? Since when have I been here?
I cannot remember anything at all.
In the calm view ,I should pray to God for people I have left behind on a far country.

A number of white birds are drawing a circle in the air.
At the great height ,they are singing as if songs at church.
So I am feeling dizzy ,I am feeling a little fear.
All of them make me concerned and those cause my blackouts.

I might have left behind my family on a far country ,I must have left...left behind my friends
on the far country that is filled up with confusions and fights.
And I realize I cried and regretted leaving behind the people ,who I have loved
,on the far country that is filled up with evil wills...

...Really Sorry! So Regretful!

A blast of wind blows ,I am blown as if a feather.
The Virgin Mary in my distant memory disappears into the bright air.
My arms are on fire as if burning up my sins.
The number of white birds around me are flying to the Sun at the great height... ...

A gentle breeze makes me feel good in the warm sunshine.
The white sands glitter in the scent of ocean.
My heart is so quiet as if the picture of the smiling Virgin Mary at an old church.
Why am I here? Since when have I been here?
But I don't need to know that ,I am so quiet.
In the calm view ,I always pray to God for people I had left behind on a far country.

She is one of the crew, along with Gear and Vizor , that serve to deliver fun melodic techno. I hope you like what she has to offer and look forward to more.

Mood Exhibit - Peppy

After a gorgeous Easter long weekend here, my thoughts have turned to summer. Not quite there yet, but enough warmth to think of gardens, colour and...the arrival of ominous smog and haze of urban centers. I relocated from the urban sprawl of what we called "The Big Smoke" of the Toronto area.  I think, the threat of air pollution, especially in the sweltering heat of summer, always makes me mindful of the thin line and tipping point (1.5 degrees C) of global warming. The summer of 2023 left much of North America reeling from the haze of smoke from hundreds of wildfires in Canada's north.Wearing masks to protect, not from Covid, from PM (particulate Matter of 2.5 in Ontario! Toronto was the worst for particulate matter in the world in June 2023)

Haze
    I love the haze of summer … ah
    1) Short path to the shore
    Secret place, we’ve been before
    A little piece of heaven no one knows
    Quiet time for you and me
    On the beach near to the sea
    A little piece of heaven no one knows
    Ooh – ah…This where the buck stops (x4)
    EVERYBODY’S DREAMING…OF MORE SUNNY DAYS
    BUT CAN’T YOU SEE WE’RE STEAMING …IN THE HAZE?
    2) How long can it last
    Relegated to the past
    Something once forgotten never found
    Just take a little care
    I want to feel it’s always there
    Something once forgotten never found
    Ooh – ah    (x12) 
    (INST)  
    (CHORUS)
    3) Warm days, running dry
    Changing times, a leaden sky
    Is there a piece of heaven no one knows?
    Radiation, in the sand       
    A lasting legend, to our land     
    Is there a piece of heaven no one knows?
    Ha…ya…ya…ze!  (x3)
    (CHORUS)
    I loved the haze of summer …
