One for the Monday morning school bus driver. Play it loud and drown out the screams

Kajati backing vocals and Ivan shreds

you stare at the road like an easter island statue
life drives past but no one salutes you
white knuckle hands grip tight the wheel
don't know what you think
don't know if you feel

can you quit it in the back
can you quit it in the back

you're the solution looking for a problem
you're the solution looking for a problem
you're the solution

you feel that tick
digging in your brain
ever since the accident
things haven't been the same
now you've got purpose
now you've got drive
no one's getting outa here
getting out alive

can you quit it in the back
can you quit it in the back

Quit it in the Back

Big Daddy Rat

This world of ours is nuts.

So, in an act of utter lunarcy I have decided to marry the moon and bugger off somewhere else.

Herewith my serenaded pledge of love and proposal of marriage.

I have every confidence.

Goodbye everyone.

Goodbye.

Now every sun has set
Dark as it can get
No dawn will bless my crescent dreams
Of touchdown on your crater lips
Sweet penumbrally eclipsed
Selene
Entrust me to Tranquility’s sea of moondust for infinity
Phase my mind with dark-side thoughts pristine
Selene

Unpick your tidal lock
Let that planet run amok
Let’s spin away to astral pastures green
Helium-3 wedding isotope
We’ll solar system-atically elope
Selene
Ultimate caesarean birth, father Theia and mother earth
I adore your ellipsoidal slight scalene
Selene

Your pert axial tilts will carry me, ah won’t you marry me?
We’ll wax and wane as one, making moonlets, the stars between
Selene

Original track by Phil Dutton & Les Corlett
Lyrics...

If I could only tell you, How good you make me feel.
I wouldn't have to hide the fact, You make it so real.
If I could only show you, How high you make me climb.
I wouldn't have the words to say, I want you to be mine.

(Ooh. . . Tra la la la la).
(Ooh. . . Tra la la la la...
Whisper it softly, 
I'm lost in a moment like this.
What will it cost me,
If I don't give into it.

If I could only show you, what you do to my poor heart.
Your kiss would raise a dying man, and cause his life to start.
If I could only tell you, how you make me feel.
I wouldn't have to hide the fact, You make it so real.

What shall we do with the rest of our days,
Will we sit here and wonder how we're going to pay.
For the highs and lows and the bits in between,
For the pureness of the silence as we're floating down stream. 

(Ooh. . . Tra la la la la).
(Ooh. . . Tra la la la la)...
Whisper it softly, 
I'm lost in a moment like this.
What will it cost me,
If I don't give into it.

What shall we do if love finds a way,
Will we silence the doubters block out all that they say.
Whispering sometimes you kept me alive,
In embracing the morning see a new sun rise. 

(Ooh. . . Tra la la la la).
(Ooh. . . Tra la la la la)...
Whisper it softly, 
I'm lost in a moment like this.
What will it cost me,
If I don't give into it.

Repeat...

Floating Downstream

Not my greatest track..  so i guess it will be a Limited uploading..
i like to make some real progressive trance tunes one day..   but
i guess this is maybe a funny atempt of making one..  so i call Progressive Lofi Trance..  cause the arrangement is not perfect..
but i got humor,  so i think i deserved to be uploaded..  at least for a little while..   Enjoy..  :O)

The Tempo

Had To Do This

This piece evokes a sensation of deep nostalgia and timeless beauty. Listening to Carnival Serenade, one feels transported to a distant era, immersed in a culture rich in history and tradition.

The melody, with its refined ornamentation and expressive phrasing, seems to tell a story of love and longing, with a tone of sweet melancholy. The intricate embellishments and dynamic fluctuations create a sense of movement and life, as if the music were breathing and moving gracefully.

The interplay between melody and harmonic accompaniment gives the piece emotional complexity, suggesting intertwined feelings of joy and sadness, a sense of intimate connection with the past, a mix of sweetness and melancholy that invites contemplative listening and reflection. The music seems to touch deep chords of the soul, offering an experience that is both emotional and aesthetic.

Carnival Serenade

Original song about the true story of my tiny 4'11" pioneer grandma, Amy Loader, dancing in the snow to help her girls get out of bed when she had just lost her husband on the trek and her daughters were on the brink of starvation and freezing. I was told this lovely, inspiring story from a tiny girl and decided to write a song about it.

Music/Lyrics/Vocals/Instrumentals by Layna Claunch
Original true story recorded in the journal of Patience Loader (Amy Loader's daughter)
                         
Huddled in the dreary morn
The winter’s early snow
Sleeping on the hardened ground
Such cold I’d never known

Our tent was barely standing
Our neighbor’s tents caved in
Another day to starve and freeze
Let misery begin

I heard my mother calling
To help her start a fire
She pleaded with each daughter
But not one could find desire

Mama pursed her lips
“Girls, this simply will not do!"
She put her tiny hands on hips   
"I’ll have to dance for you!"

I remember Mama 
Dancing in the snow
Her frozen feet so full of life relieved our weary load
I remember Mama 
Dancing in the snow
Smiling through her sorrow on this path of faith she chose

Her tiny hands she threw up high
The cold air froze her breath
Her feet were light and happy
As she danced to challenge death

She started with a jig from home
She sang a merry song
She had no husband, food, or gold
But her heart and soul were strong  

She sang and danced and twirled around
Until we all had smiles 
We lifted up our weary heads
To bravely face our trials

Suddenly she slipped on ice
And fell onto the ground
We all cried out, and rushed to help her 
Gathering around  

She sat there in the snow and ice 
A broad smile on her face
Delighted with her merry plan
Relieved, we all embraced

I knew I couldn’t have my girls 
Just giving up the fight
The journey’s long and weary
But, through faith, our hearts are light
  
I remember Mama 
Dancing in the snow
Her frozen feet so full of life relieved our weary load
I remember Mama 
Dancing in the snow
Smiling through her sorrow on this path of faith she chose

I remember Mama 
Dancing in the snow
Her frozen feet so full of life relieved our weary load
I remember Mama 
Dancing in the snow
Smiling through her sorrow on this path of faith she chose
She chose
