Following the popularity of my recording of "Martynne And Hys Manne", I present a (more recent origin) traditional song, performed a capella.

My theory is that "Young Banker" is a man who digs canals for a living.

Young Banker

Composition inspired by haiku by Elliot Carson.

Hommage au Daphne Oram

Most days you'll never see me
cause I exist behind a one way mirror
let the world reflect itself...what it wants anyway, and so I move to be more social
and watch for your response
through my one way focal
and O baby
I can adjust...goin zero to sixty
like a beam of light...I make it smooth again
I make it alright...yea
and babe
I can read your body, couldn't be more clear...yea
gonna let you see yourself in my one way mirror
O do you see that guy?
'bout to lose himself...tries to look so hard
ends up lookin weaker...and
most days you'll never see him
cause he exists behind a one way mirror
let the world reflect itself...and so
he moves to be more social
and watch for my response
through his one way focal
and O baby
I can adjust...goin zero to sixty
like a beam of light...I make it smooth again
I make it alright...

Tom (@tom-2020) and I are glad to present track 7 (last but one) in our almost finished collaborative album "La belle et le loup, ou Les loups du Gévaudan" (2023), or in English translation "Beauty and the Beast, or The Wolves of Gevaudan").

The track was created in collaboration on 25 November 2023 (initial composition, recording, arrangement and mix in MAGIX by Tom) and 10-11 December 2023 (subsequent composition, recording, arrangement and final mix in GarageBand iOS and Logic Pro by Alex M), and posted here on SoundCloud on 11 December 2023 (by Alex M). We acknowledge use of vocal samples from MAGIX Dance-Main Stage, selected and incorporated into the track by Tom. 

The artwork cover for the track is based on a photo by Tom of 11 September 2013 (exactly 10 years and 3 months ago!) that was cropped and annotated in Mac OS Preview by Alex M and Tom in coordination on 8 October 2023.

Duration: 6:59 minutes
