WAKE UP OF THE SWEET SOUR MANTRA

There Ain't  No Sweet Man Thats Worth The Salt Of My Tears By Sucole & 6qsax

Percussion Mantra - Open Collab

Here we go!

This been pretty much my August - Project, surprise surprise, at my parents in law place - (gotta give it a magic name soon, might sound more "dope" instead of P A R E N T S  I N  L A W   P L A C E.) Haha.
Nonetheless, as "we" already know, the workflow and especially also the influences and what outcome that might be, is most of the times unpredictable and i just let it go - kinda -> go with the flow!

I realized, that i never did anything "fast", so why not just go 160 bpm! Ha! And then it happened and it grew and after that week i had it pretty much done. Turned out i went mad with the drums later on and worked another 3 weeks until i had them where i wanted it to be , along with some little FX automations and little subtle details here and there.

What is this? As i am releasing this, today on my, yeah, 40th birthday, i thought like: "Man, does that not herald the dawn of damn? Right?." Just a little joke. I really hope, that no one will think about me like that, and if there is a yes, then seriously go f.ck yourself, for real! :) There is so much happening, still this global pandemic going and then... there were a lot of news about the lost war in Afghanistan and that really bad times will be coming again. A country, which took so long to gain for instance rights for women and so on, will be pushed back in time and space. And i think that's pretty much it. 

I contacted my wonderful friend John Bucknall (https://www.instagram.com/johnbucknallart/) and asked him if he could draw the thing i had in mind - and damn, he did it!! I am proud that he agreed  and he really nailed it. I spare sharing any additional ideas and other stuff.. its really up to you....like "Have the track, see the picture and then there will be definitely enough space for your own interpretation of all of this." 

And yeah, i am not getting tired of thanking all of you for your support, your amazing and mind blasting music you put on the cloud, which keeps resonating, keeps me going, keeps me so hooked to all of you. I am feeling more and more home with all of you on my side. I befriended so many wonderful artists here, i have the possibility to collaborate with some, and also exchange thoughts, ideas, vibes and the most important "love"!

End of 2021 i will have my third anniversary here on Soundcloud and i am not getting a single millisecond tired of digging all your stuff , liking, commenting , reposting and experiencing it with my all my senses and especially my crazy brain dick!!!! You are amazing!

Thanks , my musical friends!

PS: Yes, i totally dig Planet of the Apes and Space Odyssey 2001!

Briar EP

Briar/Mynd Ar Ôl Cwningod

Hi and welcome to the 7th track by "Then She Reaches For The Gun". The ever changing line up has some new members this time around as we tackle Lewis Carroll’s famous nonsense poem The Jabberwocky. I haven’t read Carroll since I was a teenager so it was a cool trip down memory lane doing a bit of background research for this piece. Big Thanks to Gary Rees who first sent me an English reading to the work a few months ago. It sat on my desktop for a while as I wondered how tackle the work. After a while it seemed obvious the best (and most fun) approach might be to get some translations recording in other languages… so thats what we did, hope u enjoy 

The Jabberwocky features the following artists


Tuonela - Electronica
Yui Nikaido - Voice (Japanese)
Gary Rees - Voice ( English)
Raul Mainer - Voice (Spanish)
Antonella Eye Porcelluzzi - Voice (French)
Paolo D’Emilio - Voice (Italian)
Frank Wilke - Voice (German)
Hverheij - Guitar
MatVee - Electronica
Widar’s Spiritual Front - Electronica

Me - noise, digital orchestra/piano

More about Then She Reaches For The Gun

The project’s inspiration is two fold: Firstly its a homage to some of the stuff i grew up listening to like Mr. Bungle and other noisy bastards where anything goes, and often in quick fire succession and secondly it” a chance to work with an never ending stream of talented musicians that i have known for years either in real life Australia or via the Internet. Each track will no doubt change depending on who has sent me what. 

If you would like to be part of this ongoing project….

The process is simple, I collect a bunch of random recordings from people and then see what i can arrange from it. Nothing subtle here, just huge noisy fun : ) I am open to anyone that thinks they might like to be part of this mess. Drop me a message and i will send you my email. The only criteria is that i wont be using samples from TV/film/other music etc, so just original stuff played on instruments, field recordings, stupid drunk conversations etc. Cheers!

The Jabberwocky

i tried to learn/sing the words in reverse.  the first vocals you hear are my best attempt.  it was more difficult than i expected. -- i've been searching here for a way to get back home.

África... África...   /   Africa... Africa...
la vieja madre...   /   the old mother...
África... África...   /   Africa... Africa...
la tierra extraña...   /   the strange land...
África... África...   /   Africa... Africa...


Son tus raíces   /   Your roots are
más profundas que el tiempo.   /   deeper than time.
Olvida tu vida   /   Forget your life
que ahora es desierto.   /   which is now a desert.

Tus raíces de sangre se han perdido,   /   Your blood roots are lost
y tu exótico mundo ha envejecido.   /   and your exotic world has got old.
La llamada de la selva ha convertido:   /   The call of the jungle has turned:

tus batallas en guerras,   /   your battles to wars,
y tus bosques en hambre,   /   and your forests to hunger,
y tus hombres en tierra.   /   and your men to soil.

África... África...   /   Africa... Africa...
tus cantos lejanos...   /   your distant singings...
África... África...   /   Africa... Africa...
ahora están muertos...   /   are dead now...
ahora están muertos.   /   are dead now.
África... África...   /   Africa... Africa...

Greetings all you fun and funky SC musicians. I don’t typically upload remastered versions of a song as a new track. I usually just replace the old with the new, and change the title to reflect the remaster. But this one is special, for a few reasons (and if you’re not much into personalized mixing details, you may want to skip this liner note).

First (and most importantly)… I thought I’d lost the ability to edit the original tracks for this song. The last time I opened it up in Logic (updating it for the 2018 album remaster), the siren voices were all messed up (automation in Alchemy can have odd results sometimes). I just assumed the original native file was broken forever, because I no longer had access to that version of Logic. I had to do the album remaster from my only existing mix… and it was definitely lacking.

4 years later, I’m so glad I took a chance on reopening the native file when I concluded this ‘Siren’ trilogy. All the sounds/automations were exactly as I had left them. Prior to this attempt, I just assumed the worst, and never tried again. Thankfully, I was wrong. :D

Second… the remaster turned out much better than I hoped; and the differences were so satisfying, I thought it might be fun to have both versions up (for a side by side comparison, for any interested musicians out there. Here's the older version: https://soundcloud.com/grevusanjl/siren-rising).

So why does this one sound so much better than the original version? (And please take all of this with a grain of salt. I’m no pro. But I have discovered what works for me.)

Honestly, a tremendous amount of credit goes to having a much better understanding of Compression. For many folks, Compression is almost a dirty word. Just the title of the plug-in alone confused me at first. Why would I possibly want to compress my sounds, when I liked them as is? 

But it turns out (for me at least) that the different Compression options really shine when chosen specifically, and used minimally. As an example (and I’m not sure if your DAW offers similar options, but), Studio VCA works brilliantly with strings, female vocals and many of my favorite synths. But Studio FET works great on drums. Etc. And while some might cringe at the idea, I absolutely love what Soft Distortion does to most tracks as well. Used in mild amounts, Soft Distortion adds a phenomenal amount of spacial quality to the sound. I don’t use this one all of the time, but I bet I use it at least 75% of the time now (and Compression in general on about 95% of the tracks).  So there you go… I’m definitely a big fan of Compression… when used responsibly. :)

In addition, I’ve also learned a lot about EQing since I first did this song in 2017; so much so, that I was actually baffled by some of my earlier choices. So a large amount of the repair/update time for the 2022 remaster was spent on getting the EQing for each track set up more effectively.

And finally, I had the opportunity to give the full mix a healthy rebuild. After 5 years, you’re undoubtedly going to have a very fresh perspective on a piece. And I realized a lot of the sounds simply weren’t in their optimal positions in the stereo field. I also reconsidered where sounds faded in and out, and how intensely they did so… and I updated all of that as well. 

And there you have it, the story/history behind one of my all time personal favorites. I’m so glad I had an opportunity to revisit this one (while leaving all the original instruments true to form), and I hope you enjoy all the latest sound enhancements as well. I’m excited to hear what you think of my ’Siren Rising (2022 Remaster)’. :D
