Santana Remix Black Magic Woman

Lyrics:
I tend to lack nostalgia
Keep my eyes facing forward
Survey the farthest structures
Where I will meet my gods

The present is forever, forever odd

Where I've been won't tell me where to go
I'll find you, everywhere you glow
Glow (I'll find you)
Glow (I'll find you)
Glow

I trend to love nostalgia
Keep my eyes open forward
He'll give me all I'm missing
Where I will meet my gods

The present is forever, forever odd

Where I've been won't tell me where to go
I'll find you, everywhere you glow
Glow (I'll find you)
Glow (I'll find you)
Glow 


melodic avant-pop track with funk-inspired bass line & organ hooks.

GLOW (forever odd)

Started out with the bassline against the drum sample at the beginning of the track and seemed to need a second section / theme. Most notable as I dug out my Jim Dunlop wah for the first time in a number of years for this one as well.

Hope you enjoy - as ever please listen all the way through = good karma.

Lamorna's Lullaby is the first recording for my new album 'Songs of Land and Sea', which will be available sometime in 2025. 

Featuring Laura Terry singing main vocals with additional vocals by Jon Woode 

Lamorna's Lullaby  by Jon Woode
(written on the 8th June 2024).

Inspired by Lamorna Birch's (a member of the Newlyn Art Society) love of Lamorna Cove and his infatuation with Greta Valentine.

This is a simple song that finds the artist Lamorna Birch searching for inspiration in the eyes of his muse Greta Valentine and the beauty of his surroundings. Once he has completed his work he is totally at peace and the sea sings him to sleep.

                          
Lamorna’s Lullaby

Somewhere in your eyes
In the valley of the trees
Tranquility of blue endless blue
Of the open seas
Something in your smile
Reminds me of the sky
Inspiration comes to my open mind

The sea will sing Lamorna
The sea will sing Lamorna
She will sing Lamorna’s lullaby

Somewhere on the wind
Far beyond the rye
I sometimes hear you singing me to sleep
Where the angels fly
A voice upon a wave
A whisper on the tide
And the sea will sing Lamorna’s Lullaby

The sea will sing Lamorna
The sea will sing Lamorna
She will sing Lamorna’s Lullaby

Across the waters far and wide
On gentle winds on softly ebbing tides

The sea will sing Lamorna
The sea will sing Lamorna
She will sing Lamorna’s Lullaby

Songs of Land and Sea

Lamorna's Lullaby

Step into a pulsating world where poetry meets rhythm, and love becomes a stormy dance under the rain-soaked skies. "A Poem in the Rain" takes you on an electrifying journey of haunting melodies, hypnotic beats, and lyrics that ignite the soul. With a driving energy fit for the club, this track explores themes of fleeting connections, timeless love, and the beauty found in chaos. Let the harmonica's wail guide you through the storm.

Lyrics:


The wind it whistles through the trees,
A whisper’s all it takes to freeze.
And in the chaos of the crowd,
She hums a tune, soft and proud.

I met her on a day the rain wouldn’t quit,
The kind of cold you feel when the fire won’t lit.
She had a smile like a riddle unsolved,
And eyes that could melt a heart revolved.

She said, “Boy, you’re chasing a ghost in the mist,
But the living’s right here, so don’t resist.”
I laughed and stumbled, caught in her spell,
And the road to nowhere suddenly felt well.

Oh, the clocks, they spin but never slow,
The heart knows things the mind won’t show.
In her touch, there’s a truth so clear,
Like a hymn I’ve been longing to hear.

She’s a wildfire on a winter’s night,
A quiet song in a world of fight.
Oh, the kind of love you can’t explain,
Like a poem that dances in the rain.

She dreams of skies where the sun don’t fade,
Where the earth’s soft rhythm won’t betray.
I told her, “Love, we’re just passing through,
But the stories we tell will outlast the blue.”

And the moon came out like a polished coin,
The stars stitched patterns that time couldn’t join.
She held my hand like a map unrolled,
Leading me places I’d never been told.

Oh, the river flows but the banks remain,
Carving through stone, ignoring the pain.
In her gaze, there’s a timeless grace,
Like a melody finding its rightful place.

She’s a wildfire on a winter’s night,
A quiet song in a world of fight.
Oh, the kind of love you can’t explain,
Like a poem that dances in the rain.

They say the world is a wheel that turns,
But she’s the flame where the spirit burns.
And when the ashes scatter in the breeze,
I’ll still hear her voice in the rustling leaves.

She’s a wildfire on a winter’s night,
A quiet song in a world of fight.
Oh, the kind of love you can’t explain,
Like a poem that dances in the rain.

The wind it whistles through the trees,
And with her love, I’ve found my peace.

SC seems to be adding some distortion to bass/kick which sounds fine in WAV, hopefully won't be an issue for Spotify etc. It sounds fine on Bandcamp as well and it's free to listen there https://ubomusic.bandcamp.com/track/in-retrospect - thanks.

Pretty laid back, this started out with bass and drums and seemed to need go somewhere. The simple piano melody in the middle section is a grouping of 5-notes but off-set by 1/16 and then various delays added.

Drums: NI Kontakt sample pack.
Bass: Sandberg Elektra 4-string with flats through NI Guitar Rig.
Guitars: Godin Montreal Semi-Acoustic with flats and a Suhr Custom Classic both into Archetype Mateus Asato.
Keys: various NI and Arturia keys. Spitfire piano with Crow Hill Piano Rack.
Strings: Crow Hill Small String Gestures.
Mastering: Ozone 11 Standard.
DAW: Ableton 12.

In Retrospect

Photo: glass, 2025.

Initially bass and drums came together before I was messing about trying to mimic the 'Everything in its right place' synth sound, failed on that but liked the resultant Prophet 5 sound so repeated the guitar chords on that. The second section of the track has a Latin bass I guess, with a repeating 7-note ascending melody (I'm fond of these). There's a guitar part as sequence of 7-notes that is doubled on Rhodes.

Drums: NI Kontakt sample pack.
Bass: Sandberg Elektra 4-string with flats through NI Guitar Rig.
Guitars: Suhr Custom Classic both into Archetype Mateus Asato.
Keys: various NI and Arturia keys. Crow Hill Piano Rack on the Prophet there's some Crow Hill Cosmos double the Juno sustained pad later one.
Mastering: Ozone 11 Standard.
DAW: Ableton 12.
