Point Of Knowing

Part 2 of the final track of Then She Reaches For The Gun's 2nd Album
released in Jan 2025 - nomatesensemble.bandcamp.com/album/i-am…m-with-you.

Then She Reaches for the Gun was formed in 2021 by Mat Ward. At its essence is sound collage, Ward invites musicians, sound artists, poets and anyone interested to send him files to be used, abused and showcased ‘as suggested by the work’. They are not always musical but field recordings, spoken word, engine noises and drunken rants. Animals participate a lot too! The raw material is arranged with one phrase asking for the next in an alchemical and intuitive process that will most often feature dozens of tracks weaving in and out of each other, colliding, harmonising, arguing and laughing along the way.

Both the aesthetic and the compositional methods use what Frank Zappa called Xenochrony - the mixing together of separately recorded and rhythmically opposing musical phrases to create polyrhythmic and polytempi compositions.The work also features fragmented story telling with the human voice (in many languages) appearing unannounced throughout the tracks offering up snippets of thoughts, conversations, jokes and existential angst. The absurdity of humanities desperate claim to have any real understanding of its place in the universe is revealed through the recorded follies and genuine emotions of the artists. The project is a celebration of chance, diversity and community. It pays homage to all musical tastes and genres whilst maintaining a sense of humour and irreverence that is needed to stay sane in the climate of 21st Century contemporary culture.

Never Ever – OK With It (Triple Touch Down) // Controls Mix

Rough Bass Drums with solos and random noises

I hope this song reaches your heart. 
Thank you so much for listening.

This is an original track.
I recorded the guitar, bass, piano and drums myself. Some elements like certain string parts, ambient sounds, and subtle adjustments were programmed using MIDI — although some of the string sounds were also played and recorded using an electric piano.
This track features vocals by Koharu Rikka (小春六花), a singing voice synthesizer.


The lyrics are as follows:
------------

私の声は　きっと　
月夜を照らした輝く星のように

私の声が　ずっと
あなたの心に届いてほしい
、、、夢でも良いよ

鮮やかな流星のように（遠く）
言葉を運んでゆく
、、、それが消えても良いよ

My voice — shine brighter,
like a radiant star that lights up the moonlit sky 
— for someone out there will surely feel its warmth.

My voice — reach deeper 
into your heart
for this voice can gently cross so many walls
and discover new paths waiting in the light.

Like a vivid shooting star,
it carries every word, strong and bright.
（strong and bright）

Like a beautiful shooting star,
carrying each word straight and shining bright！

My colorful voice, 
echo across the world.
My colorful voice, 
let every note shine.

My colorful voice, 
echo across the world.
My colorful voice, 
let every note shine.

Even if it’s only a dream,
still, my heart will shine on.
Even if it fades away someday,
still, my heart will shine on.

------------
