Secret Societies Rule The World

Secret Societies Rule The World is our dystopian look at how the global elite control our societies.   The establishments are shrouded in secrecy and corruption is a worldwide machine that continues to be fed by mainstream media propaganda.   Secret societies seem to rule the world and the news outlets only serve to fuel an already biased narrative in favour of the super rich. Lies & distrust are amplified and spread until they plant roots that divide us all.

Secret Societies Rule The World was inspired by a powerful feeling of unease at our current state of global affairs and the misinformation that is fed to us by news sources. We wanted to create a soundtrack for our frustrations and despair at the inequality and injustice that we all face. 

This song was initially inspired by classical orchestration and film scores. It is incredibly powerful how classical compositions can underpin a narrative and create such dramatic emphasis.   Secret Societies Rule The World began its life as a string and piano piece that paired perfectly with John F Kennedy’s powerful address to the American Society Of Newspaper Editors in 1961. The full band instrumentation aims to capture the frustration and aggression that built at the growing disparity amongst us all. 

Secret Societies Rule The World is our war cry! It is our reminder that together we are stronger!

Secret Societes Rule The World

This song was written when I heard the news that my sister was diagnosed with cancer. I was in another country cycling and so far away from home.  Knowing what is up ahead, trying to bury it but there is no escaping it.

Let me dive into the whirlpool
Covered in shimmery red dust
Just before the explosions 
Light my eyes
Collapsing with the clouds
Burning, bursting as celestial fireworks


The stellar wind is blowing me 
Where is too dark to tell
Where your fingers end 
And the void begins 


Flashpoint, electric swarm
We go through the storm
We go through the storm


Lost in space, time cannot cheat us
We'll sense the meaning of it all
Holy radiation will lead us to revelation  

Stellar wind is blowing me away 

Flashpoint, electric swarm
We go through the storm
We go through the storm

Flashpoint, electric swarm
We go through the storm
We go through the storm

My new song ‘Copper Flames’. This track was written, recorded and produced entirely by myself using an acoustic guitar and an 80s synth (as well as pre-recorded drum track). It’s a slow and melancholic ballad (like most of my songs) with narrative lyrics. I am very much inspired by the dark and sad lyrics commonly found in traditional European folk and I think that translates here. I will leave the lyrical interpretation to you. I also made a music video to this that is available on my YouTube channel (see the links on my profile). Anyway, let me know what you think. I have been making music for a few years now and because it is just me involved with this project, I am constantly learning so feedback is welcome. Please enjoy!

Lyrics:
The sun painted strips of yellow
On her skin, dappled like petals
In golden rings, green-lit shadows
In the spring, a westerly wind blows

The years, they go on and on
The years, they go on and on
The years, they go on and on
The years

A handsome man with eyes like copper flames
From a foreign land, no one knew his name
Saw her stand under gilded shade
And took her hand right up to his face

The years, they go on and on
The years, they go on and on
The years, they go on and on
The years

Her open wound was an open letter
To those who knew, she’d never get better
Her open wound was an open letter
To those who knew, she’d never get better

Flecks of gold splashed the dark night
In stories told by the candle light
That she turned cold, a body of icy white
Alas behold, no trace of him by her side
The years, they go on and on
The years, they go on and on
The years, they go on and on
The years

Her open wound was an open letter
To those who knew, she’d never get better
Her open wound was an open letter
To those who knew, she’d never get better

Phildel - Child Of The Meadow

Within the Radiant Glow of a Campfire far from home ,
I am Warmed... 
and Relax into the velvety dark beauty of the night ...

My mind floats effortlessly,
Upstream... into the Plethora of Light 
that is The Milky Way... 
and Within that Current Between The Notes,
i Find mySelf 
At Peace...
and Whole.

But far from Dreaming,

And as the primal Rhythms whisper of Wonders beyond the crackling fire, 
and Fan the momentum of this moment within the Stillness of this Wondrous Night,
a perspective is painted that I've never seen, 
or known before...

and I am Drawn wholy into The Magic of a Cosmic Consciousness.

and Above...  
a glittering Treasure Chest of Stars 
Spills Light across the Velvet Sky... 
and twinkles out a Radiant message to all who behold their Glorious Light,
and Feel within that Resonant thrum,
That Yes!
All is Well in Heaven 
and Earth!

And no matter what i think,
that I Am indeed the Music, 
for as long as it Plays 
Within my  L i s t e n i n g  loving soul.......
