Through The Clouds Again

Protect The Order

The Sleepers Wake (early Version)

In Dissonance We Play

Sourdome (live)

We Only Have Eyes For You (single Version)

Here's a song from a "concept album" I wrote when I was 13 about a schizophrenic person who apparently imagines they are an amoeba in this song which takes them back to primordial times - or something like that...

Amoeba

Here is a rehearsal of the song "Railyard" which we were considering for a live performance.  But, the song was cut from the set.  A celebration of friendship...

Railyard (rehearsal)

Iron And Glass

a work in progress - 96/24
written by Phideaux Xavier, April 15, 2019
performed by Molly Ruttan and Phideaux Xavier

Climbing the stairs to the top of the sky
Spiraling up past the belfry we climb

Come nearer to me
The chimera wishes to be
Oh God take me out
From the tower we leave
As Gabriel plays for a crowd still in grief

Iron and glass and rock and tree
Old as the world that we used to believe
Up to the spire that impels us to strive
Far from the depths that conspire to deprive

Come nearer to me
The chimera wishes to be
Oh God pull me out
From the error of days
As Gabriel plays what Gabriel plays

Iron and Glass
Rock and Tree

Iron And Glass

a song written for my dear departed father, circa 2007

Acoustic Album 2.0

All The Leaves Are Green

This song was written for General Hospital's Nurses Ball in 2018.  Here is my original "pitch demo" with a few added strings.  Not quite finished, but I thought it would be nice to share it with everyone during this time of contemplation and confusion.

I Never Knew (rough Mix)

At our beloved, now defunct Firehouse Studios doing some recording and I hit upon a few riffs that needed to be recorded for future ideas...

Several Half Baked Ideas Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict

a good reason I shouldn't mix my own stuff, this is a demo from 1995, but I like it...

Retrofit Volume 1

Secret

Here is a live bootleg of an unrecorded and unreleased song called "1112 And Counting".  It's a song about the AIDS epidemic, referencing the original essay by Larry Kramer, as well as the AIDS quilt project to memorialize those who died of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.  

The photograph was taken at Los Angeles National Cemetery where I found my Great Great Grandfather's grave.  He fought for the Union in the Civil War.

1112 And Counting (live Bootleg)

this is a track from the first Mogon album, a rough mix.  I'm not certain that the track is finished, but I do love its simplicity and passion

Now The Morning Ends (rough Mix)

Here is an early rehearsal version of Wily Creilly.  I should note that Bloody Rich and I were rehearsing in my NYC apartment at the time, so Rich was playing a DrumKat MIDI drum trigger - not an easy task.  The neighbours only came up once, and we rehearsed the whole of the "Ghost Story" album in my bedroom.  So, enjoy the beautiful moment in time when this song is starting to take shape.

Wiley Creilly (Writing Rehearsal)

Here is Valerie's arrangement of "Darkness At Noon" from Number Seven.  Perhaps this is the way the song was meant to be...

Darkness At Noon (Valerie Solo Demo)

Here is the only live version I have recorded of the song "Believe" which was the concluding track on my unofficial first album "Friction"

Believe

This is the only full recording I have of my band The SunMachine performing The Burning Times
