"...the bassline bubbles like lemonade and a trumpet shines bright as the bluest sky" - Maddy Costa, journalist for The Guardian

"(I) love the brass section...her songwriting, lyrically especially, feels very old school soul...she is clearly a stylish, unique individual..." - Neil Mason, writer and journalist, ex-features editor at NME.com

"What I liked about the song was that it tried to capture the past in a new way...I felt the arrangements were great - nice to hear someone doing something a bit different, nice voice too!" - Gary Standley, Producer, BBC Introducing in Norfolk

The Universal Dance

In the heart of the world, a circle spins
A dance of light where goodness begins
Each act of kindness, a seed that’s sown
In fertile hearts, its roots are grown

A smile begets a hand to lend,
A spark of hope, a wound to mend
From giver to receiver, the circle twirls
A gentle force that heals and unfurls

In the weave of time, a thread so bright
Virtue's path is drawn in light
One deed of love, its echo clear
Returns to you, sincere and near

* In every touch, in every glance
* We join the universal dance
* In this endless loop, we find our place
* A testament to human grace

The smallest gesture, a whispered word
A ripple in the soul, deeply stirred
From heart to heart, the message flies
A promise held in countless eyes

And as the circle, widens, grows
Its power felt in all it knows
A chain of good, unbroken, strong
A virtuous path where we all belong

* In every touch, in every glance
* We join the universal dance
* In this endless loop, we find our place
* A testament to human grace
* In every breath, hear your last chance
* And join the universal dance
* In this endless loop, you can take your place
* A testament to human grace

A New World Dawns

In streets once familiar, now strange and new
Ancient rhythms fade, replaced by a bolder hue
The land I knew, with traditions deep and strong
Slowly dissolves into a discordant song
Faces once mirrored mine, shared stories now untold
Amidst this sea of strangers, and cultures manifold

Our customs and values, once firmly in place
Blur and shift, leaving barely a trace
Languages mingle, accents collide
The essence of home seems to subside
In this tidal wave of change and flux
I search for anchors, familiar crux, familiar crux

A new world dawns, equally bright
A new world dawns, equally bright

Yet in this loss, a bittersweet truth emerges
As cultures blend and humanity surges
Though the country I once knew may fade from sight
Perhaps a new world dawns, equally bright
Maybe equally bright
Still, I mourn for what once was mine
A shared identity, now hard to define

In this global village, ever-growing
I'm left adrift, nostalgia flowing
Though the country I knew may fade from sight
Perhaps a new world dawns
Perhaps a new world dawns
A new world dawns, equally bright
A new world dawns, equally bright

HEART OF THE FOREST

Like a soft summer breeze...

In the whispering woods where shadows play,
A boy walks alone, night turns to day.
Warm tree roots as his friends, and stars as his guides,
Learns from the silence, where secrets abide.

Like a soft summer breeze...

With every fallen leaf, a story unfolds,
Of dreams intertwined and awakenings bold
As he dances with shadows, and sings with the trees,
He learns to be free, like a soft summer breeze

Like a soft summer breeze...

[In the heart of the forest] He finds his way,
[Through echoes of laughter] In the light of the day.
[Growing strong in the wild] Where the wild things roam,
[In nature's embrace] He’s making his home.

Oh what will become of him?
What of his joy?
Weep for the future
And sing at his death
If we are the last of the trees to fall
The winds will pass unnoticed
And no-one else, no-one else can dance…

The Oldest Nightmare

Oh that woman
Stole the piano but
I love her more
Than one extra day
I don’t know how
It got to be
As big as it did
As big as it did
Oh oh
Oh that woman
Stole the piano but
I love her more
Than one extra day

But

Oh that woman
Stole the piano but
I love her more
Than one hextra day
Be not afeard
The isle is full of noises
Sounds and sweet airs
That give delight
Oh that woman
Stole the piano but
I love her more
Than one extra day
She washes me down
With soap and snow and
We talk of heaven
But when can we go
Oh oh

The Oldest Nightmare

Now that the world is definitively in the hands of genocidal murderers intent only on wiping out humanity, it's time to connect with people and fight this pandemic of hatred and intolerance. I don't know how we're going to do it yet, but it's necessary to wake up from the nightmare they want to plunge us into. We need much more than a survival kit; we need to regain our consciousness.

Ahora que definitivamente el mundo está en manos de asesinos genocidas que solo pretenden acabar con la humanidad, es hora de conectar con la gente y luchar contra esta pandemia de odio e intolerancia. Aún no se como lo vamos a hacer, pero es necesario despertar de la pesadilla en la que nos quieren sumergir. Necesitamos mucho más que un kit de supervivencia, necesitamos recuperar la conciencia.

Best moments are lived, not captured

Killer by Dark Company.
Album: Signmaker

KILLER
Learning is a clock with only one hand
Dreaming is a beach with speaking sands
Knowledge is a vice that grips a man
And Cain was a killer that didn’t understand

Wisdom is a yo-yo with a broken string
Time is a bird that cannot sing
And you can’t stop the rain with anything
Except love

Wanting is a boat that doesn’t know the sea
Needing is a pain that hurts to be free
Waiting is a lock that doesn’t have no key
And Cain was a killer that could have been me

Wisdom is a yo-yo with a broken string
Time is a bird that cannot sing
And you can’t stop the rain with anything
Except love

War is a sore that won’t go away
Night is a bruise on the skin of day
Children are the reason that you say you’ll stay
And Cain was a killer who got clean away

Wisdom is a yo-yo with a broken string
Time is a bird that cannot sing
And you can’t stop the rain with anything
Except love

Teachers are people who shoot at sparks
Lessons are knives that shine in the dark
Sins are boats on the lake in the park
And Cain was a killer right there at the start

Wisdom is a yo-yo with a broken string
Time is a bird that cannot sing
And you can’t stop the rain with anything
Except love

Lyrics by P. Greatorex.
Music by G. Davies/P. Greatorex/R. Parsons.

Performers:
Peter Greatorex – vocals
George Davies – guitars, bass, Boss DR220A drum machine
Rowena Parsons – tenor saxophone

Recorded, mixed and produced by George Davies at Silent Running Studios, Exeter, Autumn 1991.
Remastered at Wud Records Studios 2010.

Originally released 19th December 1991.
First re-release March 1992.
Second re-release June 2000.
Third re-release 16th December 2010.

Cover Art:
Red Splat 1 by Peter Greatorex

Copyright ℗ 1991 D & G Music.

Fun Facts:
* This song is in the key of A minor.
* During the recording of the sax part, Row played a fabulous blort which caused much giggling and can be heard as a bonus track and on the ‘out-takes and blorts’ page at Wud Records.
* Unfortunately much of the giggling cannot be heard.
* This was the very first Dark Company song that was completed.
* It received highly positive critical acclaim from the Guild of International Songwriters and Composers.
* Due to unfamiliarity with the gear, the DBX on the TSR-8 was switched off for the recording, causing a most horrendous amount of hiss.
* The red LED meant the DBX was 'off', not 'on'.
* This was later fixed with cunning use of gates and aural exciters.
* Killer was written in August 1991 and is 110 BPM.
* The guitars were recorded straight into the desk rather than using an amplifier.
* Killer was the first single released by Dark Company from the Signmaker album.
* It was backed with Second Sight and the digital remix of Killer.
* If you listen carefully to Second Sight, you can hear a little ploppy guitar line running through the song here and there, similar to the ones in Killer.

62nd Love Affair (a Spinner Quickie Production)

a relaxing improvisation with a keybord, a drumset and some noise.

I recorded this, when I was fourteen years old, using a cheap keyboard, my e-drums, myself and a freeware program to try out some sound experiments.
The whole tune is very simple and perhaps a little bit to repetitive and my ability of playing rythms on drums in an exact was on a very low level back then. However, this was the first track I made, other people except myself were able to enjoy.

This Dog Bites - Nick Harris 2017

We all know how hard it is to get our music heard and that's why we developed AtomCollectorRecords.com.

We pay music fans in crypto currency to listen to SoundCloud tracks. It is completely free for musicians to add as many tracks as they want.

To keep your tracks in rotation you listen to other artist's music to earn play credits that you then apply to your own tracks.

Using these two methods we have a steady stream of both musicians and fans listening, commenting and following our members.

A full time, freelance children's book illustrator, introduced to Magix music making software in January 2014.  Haven't been near music production since school about a hundred years ago.  Can't play a note, and sing like a drain unblocking - Hence any music I may eventually have the nerve to upload is all created using midi/vst instruments playing compositions created in the piano roll editor.   The Magix forum dedicated to music production is the only place to suffer my creations so far.  Didn't realise it could be so much fun though.  Woohoo.

Join me and a lot of other artists at www.atomcollectorrecords.com.
Get more plays for your tracks and meet a lot of awesome people!
Cheers!
