Lyrics
As you walk to the window there’s people passing by
wonder if they’re feeling what your feeling deep inside
There’s something missing I feel like you should know
I had a good friend tell me,  many years ago

You got to move to know what it’s all about
It’s just a matter of time before it all works out.

just a matter of time before it comes your way
not always easy when, just another crowded day
Things start to happen It all falls into place
Now you're on your path to living your life filled with grace.

It’s just a matter of time before it all works out.
It’s just a matter of time feels like a dopamine rush

Dopamine Rush

Jedna Picajzla
Pravo iz špajza
misli da može
bez Kose i Kože
održi Visinu
Preleti planinu
ali ne zna
ona
kolko ima Tona

Mystic Maiden

Original score inspired by the Andrew Michael Hurley novel Starve Acre

Did you ever blow a dandelion clock

adrift

method: some atonal fun with the plastic midi keyboard on a rainy evening
narration: the poem is quite some decades old - last century, millennium even, and all that. it was quite a different life I led back then. the original title is: "an antenna cast into the open" - this also was the first line when I wrote the poem .... but I skipped it for this version, jettisoning the poem into the imbalance that suits its sonification's atonal qualities.

poem / copyright jo richter:

a fishing rod fishing the water
a probe probing deep space
to welcome that other me
out there - infinty bait

there's a mirror to wait
on you - twin travesty
of being tired and stirred by hoping
weak and strong forces that matter
in watching and running the race

infinity bait

Infinity Bait

There is so much about this track that can't be put in to words...

BB69 World Crack Up (ft. Hemanifezt)

This is another track for my "Clutha Project" series - music and/or lyrics evoked by my childhood and family links to the River Clyde. 

In this case I was  playing with my new musical acquisitions - "String Murmurations" and "Small String Gestures" by the Crow Hill Company (they are fab!) - and I fell into thinking of the rhythm of the tides and how they connect (and affect) folk all around the world. At some point in every river's journey, it meets the tidal power of the moon and sun and becomes a party to that twice-a-day rising and ebbing that affects all estuary and coastal life.

On the Clyde (as with all rivers of the world) , sandbanks appear and disappear, water channels change their courses, vessels come and go, birds feed and depart, children play in rockpools, all to the rhythm of the slow swelling and departing of these tides every day. This track tries to capture that slow rhythm that most of us take for granted and the beauty that it contains.

I have made a video to accompany this, which is at https://youtu.be/WQCp0cQJBU4 if you fancy a look as well as a listen. :)

The Murmuring Tides (Clutha Project)

"Magic" by FLEN'N'Bass isn't just a song; it's a high-octane tribute to Darren, encapsulating the spirit of true friendship and the magical moments that come with it. Crafted with pulsating drum and bass rhythms and enriched with deep, resonant bass, this track takes listeners on an electrifying journey of sound and emotion. The production process, inspired by the enduring bond between the artist and Darren, incorporates complex layering and a passionate performance, making "Magic" a powerful homage and a testament to the transformative power of music in celebrating connections.
