Is that IMF Rock? Turn it Up!

OK Feather Coocooing

Music to listen to, and to dance to sometimes. Sounds a bit more familiar than the other series, especially for old people ; )

This one has some grey hair.

. . - Electric Hokum "The Temple of Hokum"(#1): 1 year*,
. . - The Mills Tone of Goltz "Pancake Groove"(#3): 1 year*,

HK_Tradacoustic_40

Calm and Steady series no. 117

These tracks were uploaded between 04/2021 and 06/2021, with the following older exceptions:
. . - VARTCH "I Was Born Next To The Ritz"(#17): 5 years,
. . - CirquexX...Psychology "Obliterating Darkness"(#19): 3 years,
. . - Alex Gobbett "Miss"(#1): 12 - 23 months,

. . - Atlandic Canyons "Haunted World"(#11): 7 months,
. . - Zabirski "Skończona Historia"(#5): 6 months.

The other series (short tracks) so far are:
- "Hard-Fast-or-Nasty" (more intense/abrasive)
- "MiddleLane", and "Superdance" (the middle, or ambivalence)
- "Funky-Dub-Trap", and Funky (terminology conundrum)
- "Fantaisies" (for professional dancers only)
- "Minimal"
- "Dark"
- "BreakB-Jungle-DnB"

There is little overlap between them, mostly between: *
. . A) Superdance
and
. . B) all other series

* Increasingly there is some overlap between "Calm & Steady" and "Funky-Dub-Trap", and between a bunch of others (Dark, Minimal, ...). I'm trying to keep it to the minimum, the overlap, tracks finding themselves in more than one playlist. I don't think I'm very good at it.

Every time I dream and think of yesterday
Can't get you out of my head
When I tell myself I'll let you sail away
You find a way to come back

Empty promises are lushly filled with champagne
I keep on wondering 
(Do you still care)
Short letters while you're sailing through the waves
Is all I can get, yet still

Seas, know you so well
I know you'll hurt me every time I try to get closer
Still
I try to let go, 
And every time I'm here waiting, back to you

Always
I will
Fly as soon as you call me 
I must
Let go
Love you from a distance

First time you stayed
Said you wouldn't leave me 
Or you would regret it
First time they say
It's just a phase yeah
Fading day by day

Empty promises to never go away
became "just a few days"
Sometimes I wonder if we'll meet again
If you will come back, yet still

Seas, know you so well
I know you'll hurt me every time I try to get closer
Still
I try to let go,
And every time you find a different way to bring me back to you

Always
I will
Fly as soon as you call me 
Always
I fall
Swiftly into your arms

Always
I will
Fly as soon as you call me
Always I fall
Back into your cold arms

Always 
I find
Empty shells in the blue water
Always 
You fall
Back to your blue eyed lover

Gulliver

Recorded in a shack in Washington

Lyrics:

(It's hard)
I know that I still like you
(When they call it off)
I can't not hesitate
(I know... Hesitate)

She's got it all in her hands
There's nothing left for me
I know its all in my head
But somethings stopping me

I will not hesitate, no hesitation here
(I like you, you take my breathe away)
I'll go outside..

I'll take a picture here and keep it here with me
And all and all I know its hard when they call it off

She's got it all in her hands
There's nothing left for me
I know its all in my head
But somethings stopping me

Her eyes got something in them, there's something wrong with me
(I like you, you take my breathe away)
Her eyes got something in them, there's nothing wrong with me
(I like you, you take my breathe away)
Her eyes got nothing in them, there's nothing wrong with me
(I like you, you take my breathe away)
Her eyes got something in them, there's something wrong with me
(I like you, you take my breathe away)

I like you, you take my breathe away
I like you, you take my breathe away

Sunset (feat. Stella Jang) - Single

플레인(Pleyn) - 석양 Sunset (Feat. 스텔라장 Stella Jang)

굳이 내 피에 흐르는
카페인의 양을
늘일 필욘 없었지
미리 나의 할 일을
마쳐놨더라면
하나도 안 했지
더는 미룰 수 없어 이제 난
이 밤이 나의 마지막 기회란 걸 알아
So I gotta do what I can
Right now
Take a sip of coffee
Be under caffeine
천천히 녹아들어 내 몸에
그리고 눈을 뜨면
내 손에 잡힌 할 일들을
다 할 수 있게 돼 버릴 거야
Under caffeine
분명히 누군가는 단잠에
몸을 맡긴 시간을
난 어제 미룬 할 일들을
몰아서 하는데 다 쓸 거야
Under caffeine
Under caffeine
어쩜 이리 한결같아
한결같이 미뤄
불안해하며 놀아
데자뷰인가 싶어
습성은 변하지 않아
미리미리는 다 타고나는 건가 봐
와 진짜 더 미루면 안 될 것 같은데
그래도 미뤄 대단하다
더는 미룰 수 없어 이제 난
이 밤이 나의 마지막 기회란 걸 알아
So I gotta do what I can
Right now
Take a sip of coffee
No entire cup of coffee
Be under caffeine
천천히 녹아들어 내 몸에
그리고 눈을 뜨면
내 손에 잡힌 할 일들을
다 할 수 있게 돼 버릴 거야
Under caffeine
분명히 누군가는 단잠에
몸을 맡긴 시간을
난 어제 미룬 할 일들을
몰아서 하는데 다 쓸 거야
Under caffeine

아직도 사클에서 이 곡을 찾아주시는 분들에게_From 4BOUT (어바웃)

2024년의 당신은 행복하신가요? 이제는 저의 보금자리가 되어버린 뉴욕에서 작은 편지를 남깁니다. 이 낙서를 발견하신 당신에게 행운과 감사를, 이런 음악과 목소리 그리고 이런 가사로 쓰여진 저의 음악을 사랑해주셔서 감사합니다. 우리는 서로 누군지도 모르는 타인이지만 이곳에서 만큼은 자유롭게 흐느끼고 흐느적거리다 갈 수 있으면 좋겠어요. 2017년 이 곡을 만든 20대 초반의 저도 아마 같았을거에요.

뜨겁게 사랑하고 울고 불타오르시길
-
Raising our colorful placards toward the sky,
we protest against this sort of sorrow, sort of anger,
sort of absurdity

우리는 지나간 사랑에 모든 마음을 걸고 밤새도록 울음을 삼키며
또 다른 사랑을 목놓아 부르지, 한 여름밤의 꿈같은 사람들, 사랑들

Here is the Exit of Fortunate Islands

-
Summertime
-

Are our sadness and depression waiting for us behind happiness,
If so, should I stop this step?
From the entrance to these islands all the way to the exit,
I hope traveling together with my music will help resolve some of the
questions of depression hidden by happiness.

우울과 슬픔이 행복의 뒤에서 우리를 기다리고 있다면
만약 그렇다면, 나는 이 걸음을 멈춰야만 하는걸까?
이 섬의 입구에서부터 출구까지 함께하는 나의 음악들이
행복에 가려진 우울에 대한 물음을 해소하는 데 도움이 되길 바라며.

This week's Disquiet Junto assignment was to post something you've been "woodshedding." I haven't been working on my own stuff much, but my time just freed up so I thought I'd dust off and try to finish this piece based on Schoenberg's approach to hexachords later in his life (long story short, he loosened his rules for 12-tone serialism).

I wrote a pretty six-note riff and then ran it through the ol' tone-row matrix to get its inversions, retrogrades, etc. From there I tried to find hexachords that went together to sound melodic, harmonious, and unified. Finding interesting melodies and harmonies was fairly easy, but it was very hard to find transitions that "felt" right. Maybe after I work with this a bit longer.

왜요-로제(ROSÉ)

A track about keeping what you can't live without.

Hold On To Me

Lyrics
No one to see me
Enjoy through the city
Man keep thy onus, they can mess all around
Gallery, café, see comedy
When they felt inanimate, stopped nearby
All them. They would rather, All close, their eyes
Bad faith. padak padak    nal ah   noljahaedo,  molla
Que faire ? Ça paie ? Va dehors ça va te plaire.
How come you and us are living in the different world I wonder
Over phone screens in the city. We can fly and see you all.  
But it feels incomplete when you can hear what we say
Please come and stop here, enjoy the scenery
Dear friend, be a brother with us pigeons  

(inst)

Bread on the floor, run to the door
Life is so romantic with the bakeries croissant,
Street buffet, all for us
Coo-coo we say, watch from above
Fancy lights and buildings, are all just for us
At the Cuckoo cafe awesome cookies and cream
Dance and laugh coocoo with waffle above the merry-go-round

Coocoo Cafe

A collaboration among 13 people from Indie Music Feedback and an immense treasure forged during a pandemic.

Closer to the stars is where I want to be
Walking these hills where the stars see me
Organization is the basis of life
It all begins with star-energy light

Living by the blessing of biology
I too ponder the mystery
What keeps a body ready to rise?
And what makes life disorganize?

Where do we get our energy,
And why does it fade so easily?
What do food and water really mean
And are they all we truly need?

Closer to the stars is where I am
When I feel the light in my own two hands
Just beyond the circle of life I see
How life begins at the boundaries

Here’s an observation from the gentle light
That restarts life every night
Intelligence takes more than a parting glance
You can’t see the pattern without the dance

Organization is the basis of life
And life has ways to organize
Disorganization is the basis of death
It yields to chaos all over again

Closer to the stars is where I go,
When I slow myself down to the deepest low
Now just beyond the circle of life I see
Matter returning to energy

Closer to The Stars by Among Suns

Made, a wrong turn lost my way
Lost myself, where, I don't want to stay
Made, bad decisions for awhile 
Got turned around, by the tears of a crocodile 
One less mistake would, put me back on track
I'm a heart attack, away from being in the ground

So much that we wanted was out of reach
And they wanted to tell a lie
that's what they'd preach

Find the least worst way to go
It might be wrong but maybe just a little less so
After I've fallen down, I get back up 
I never learn that enough is enough

So much that we wanted was out of reach
And they wanted to tell a lie
that's what they'd preach
You were never much of a go getter
Yeah that's what they said
Now it's going from Bad to Better 
but it's in my head (you can never go back)

Half measures are better than none. 
Half step closer to getting it done. 
Not exactly to the letter 
but moved it from bad to better

Summer of young love

Late in the night
All my dreams are wandering in my head and
Blurry rain and dim light hide sweet memories ahead of the sunset
Everytime I see your face I
Keep on wondering if I am still awake and
With you staying close the night will never end

Oh long lines of your love
When morning comes and the haze fades away
I lose all of my cool
Along lines of young love
Everytime I fly away
When I'm afraid of your spell

The last time I'm hiding from you
The last time I tell myself I'm not ready yet

Holograms and fantasies all
Filled with fallacies
Thinking and not acting
Returning to the start again

Oh long lines of your love
When morning comes and the haze fades away
I lose all of my cool
Along lines of young love
Everytime I fly away
When I'm afraid of your spell

Oh long lines of your love
Along lines of young love

Oh long lines of your love
When morning comes and the haze fades away
I lose all of my cool
Along lines of young love
Everytime I fly away
When I'm afraid of your spell

Lost you are dispersing trails of your bread
Silently fly away (Somewhere far away)
Maybe one day you'll remember my name
Walk with me in the sand (Somewhere far away)

Summer of Young Love (feat. Flora Lin)

I see what you want to be
a couple scars aren't new to me
and one day we'll sit happily
as a house of cards falls silently

Mis/s Erase is finally done. What started as a quick looping jam in June soon grew to me one of my personal favourite full on songs for my album.

Enjoy

Mis/s Erase (DEMO 2)

Every little thing I say, Seems to mess around your day 
Every little thing you do, makes me want to fight with you
Every night you drive me to drink,  I'm trying to swim but I know I'll sink
You've been getting on my last nerve, and here's something that I observe 

Fighting is no way to be
Loving you is what I seem to need
Tell me, why do we even fight
Can't we find a way to make things right

Are you really gonna take it that far, Baby just get in the car
Remember when you kissed that guy, I was just saying goodbye
Come on say it to my face, You’re the one who made the mistakes
Maybe you’re just too blind to see, Quit playing games with me 

Fighting is no way to be
Loving you is what I seem to need
Tell me, why do we even fight
Can't we find a way back home for tonight

No one seems to win
When did it begin 
So flawed 
But such bliss 
Just lie and tell me this can fixed

Fighting (featuring Rielle.Life)

This song is reflective, with me thinking about my time and how it was spent this year.

I tried to make a more ambient track out of this, and I'm relatively happy with how it turned out.
