Mind Watching Your Elbow  X noxpox  - STIMULUS

Steve asked me if I would like to make some additions to his song and this is the result! It's got a nice laid back groove, and the extract from St Pauls letter to the Corinthians is a philosophy that we should all live by : )

Steve https://soundcloud.com/steve-whitfield-of-austin - wrote the song, sings and plays guitar

Wandering Corinthians - Steve Whitfield song with additions by Garddwr Porffor

It's so sad  that we can not have gigs.  Musicians all around the world still have hard times due to pandemic.
I composed this song for my band, but the next gig is cancelled because COVID-19 infection is increasing again. So I present this song in one-man band style here .

Lyrics:

is it possible?
make life better
take a step further

is it possible
to do something good
when I have nothing to give
but me
nothing but me

just me
the ugly me

fear and doubts are on the menu
my own skin becomes the venue of the fight

can you feel the stress
don't you feel opressed
no, I'm not obsessed
don't you be upset

can't you feel the stress
no, I'm not obsessed
I just feel opressed
and you make me upset
oh you make me upset
denying your strengths
ignoring your worth

why can't you see what I see
I wish you could see throught my eyes
that you are in the sunrise

is it possible
can I stop it?
to bash myself
can I trust it?
having faith in me
finally

cauze you're digging you're hole
and you're bashing your soul
by trusting your failures
is the fate you deserve
oh you're bashing your soul
and you're digging your hole
by trusing your failures
condemn you to the same behavior

I've always dug the sound of bands like Passport and Deodato. Such monumental offerings of musical inspiration.

The painting was investigated by the scientists of the Netherlands Institute for Cultural Heritage and FOM Institute for Atomic and Molecular Physics (AMOLF) Amsterdam.

The ground is dense and yellowish in color and is composed of chalk, lead white, ochre and very little black. The dark background of the painting contains bone black, weld (luteolin, reseda luteola), chalk, small amounts of red ochre, and indigo. The face and draperies were painted mainly using ochres, natural ultramarine, bone black, charcoal black and lead white.

Results included the presence of delicate eyelashes, a green curtain behind the head, changes made, and details of the pigments used and where they came from. The lack of eyebrows and featureless background had led to speculation that Vermeer was painting an idealized or abstract face; the later discoveries showed that he was painting a real person in a real space. The pearl has been described as an illusion due to having "no contour and also no hook to hang it from the girl’s ear".

Name im Stein

What started as a piano track turned into something more dynamic. This is my first real dive back into music production that is not world percussion/tribal related. (excluding a remix for my good pal - @muterial )
I had been working on tracks for my current album for a few months focusing solely on that genre, as I wanted it to be a themed release.
Now that is complete, this displays what could be considered a return to form…..and quite liberating!
Then again, I never know what I’m doing
Hope you enjoy it

Everything Dead

Red Dirt Diamond Lyrics

This is about how a kid can have the greatest memories even though the times were very hard.  We hope you enjoy it!

Lyrics;
The field was old , I was young
Just a red dirt diamond and more weeds
than grass

My friends and I, a ragtag crew
From the wrong side of the tracks

But hey, we were always there to play
And hey batter swing away

My old man worked at that old soup plant
Like most the dads of the other kids

The families from the factories
were only just one step
from sliding down to the skids

But hey, in the field we'd always play
Hey batter swing away

The color of the memories begin to thin
To black and white and of mice and men

Sometimes we'd all just up and fight
Because someone would lose their temper
But mostly we all got along
At least as best I can remember

The field is old and so am I
And no one plays out there no more

The final game had long been played
And no one kept the score

But crazy me, my thoughts go there each day
hey batter swing away.

Red Dirt Diamond

An artist must be open to the muse. The greater the artist, the more he is open to “cosmic currents.” He has to behave as he does. If he has “the courage to be an artist,” he is committed to behave as the mood possesses him. . . .

The price an artist pays for doing what he wants is that he has to do it.

Pair with Patti Smith’s account of Burroughs’s advice to the young and his cameo in the love letters of Allen Ginsberg and Peter Orlovsky.
