After having placements in Word is Bond, EarMilk, and other music blogs Diff'rence Aka Darrin Cox returns with an upshot that is "Extended Painkillers 2." "The first thing I noticed is the cover," a Taste-Maker said, " It kind of looks like a sharpie with a scribbled caricature of a number two over the art." Darrin Cox stated, "When I released the first Extended Painkillers it sent a mixed message. I didn't want to look like I was supporting a pill culture. I was just trying to say check-out some dope music. So the scribbled out artwork means I'm not a supporter of unprescribed med use."

"Extended Painkillers 2" has an intoxicating soundscape with different sub- genres blending together like an ambiguous nucleu.." a Playlist Curator said.

"Yeah I Like It" bolts through clear and concise as a crowd jumper with a heavy beat. "Number 4" off the mixtape "Plain & Simple remixes" brings a boom bap aesthetic telling the story of the indie artist grind. "Where Your head At?" floats in with an airy stripped down R&B vibe with Diff'rence lyrically in pursuit of a beautiful woman after a casual encounter. "What He Say?" is a comedic approach to how sometimes we party to hard, and how we think the people are laughing with us but in reality they are laughing at us.

This is a distinct, fun, and new project from Diff'rence Aka Darrin Cox and Phonic Blizz Ent.

Extended Painkillers 2

Try not to dwell on the tough times.  So many good things in  life
to reflect on -- a good woman, birth of my babies, them growing up
and moving on, friends and family for support.  Ah, keep your
heart on fire!

My Heart's On Fire  (Original)

So much talent from my part of the country (SW Louisiana, SE Texas) George Jones, Tracy Byrd, Mark Chesnutt, George Straight, Janis Joplin, Edgar Winters and the list goes on.  Tracy Lawrence sang with a Louisiana based band in 1988-1990.  He was shot 4 times by robbers in may 1991 which delayed his first album Sticks and Stones.  He was named top new male country vocalist in 1993.  He continues to create great music.  Just one of my favorite Tracy Lawrence songs.

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

This is unapologetically inspired by the A-side to one of my favorite albums of all time. I'll let you guess which album that is - if you are older than 50 it will most likely be easier.

A lot of us spend our lives chasing a dream, and despite reaching milestone after milestone the dream is always just beyond our reach. If you're lucky all you need to do is stop and think - maybe you're already there. I was reminded about this when told a story about a popular beach boatman asked by a hedge fund manager why he doesn't invest in an additional boat. After many questions the investor tells him that after years he could become so financially successful that he could spend his afternoons with his family and friends. The boatman tells him that after his morning fishing run that is already what he does. 

The guitar is a Logic Pro X Heavy Metal Guitar. For the drums I "mixed it up" a bit by using more reverb on the snare than on the rest of the drums. Also had a hi-hat in there initially but I took it out as I thought it muddied up the sound too much. In general I debated how much reverb to use and progressively used less and less to try and warm it up. For the bass I combined an electric bass with a traditional standing base. I departed from my usual approach of trying to reproduce as natural a piano sound as possible by using equalization to mainly remove some of the high and low end - the purpose being to create a "lo-fi" sound. Finally, the synth is Nord Native and treated with some ringshift to get the moving in and out your ears effect.  

LATELY MAYBE

Too much
Not enough
Will I ever
Is it never
I can’t see
Will it ever be

Lately, I’ve been thinking too much
Lately, I’ve been dreaming too much
Maybe, I’m in heaven
Maybe, I made it yesterday

Is this the end
Or could it be the beginning
I can’t tell
It seems a bit like hell
So many moving parts
So many false starts

Lately, I’ve been thinking too much
Lately, I’ve been dreaming too much
Maybe, I’m in heaven
Maybe, I made it yesterday

Too much
Not enough
Lately
Maybe
Lately it’s been too much
Maybe it’s been too much

Lately Maybe

“This song is a reflection of survival,” says Interphase. “It’s about resilience in the face of circumstances that feel impossible and finding a way to thrive despite it all.”
