Got a new toy, had to play with it,
but also wanted to build something of a song, because repertoire;
and I was inspired by many things I have listened to over the past weeks.

I have to come to the point of happy uplifting music yet, so you will have to do with this:


It's a song about some dark places a mind can be in... The protagonist may not be of this world, in fact. Or he never fit in...


lyrics

look for me in the shadows
look for me in the rain
cannot find in the mirror
cannot run down the drain

hold it up for a cover
give me something to taste
I need to see you tomorrow
everything else is a waste

looking out of the window
shattered worlds made out of glass
here I am set out to wander
if we only had something to last

I get it
I loved it
and wanted too much

Unrequited

Reworked mix for the Overland album (https://ffm.to/overland)
and here's a lyric video: https://youtu.be/Bq5LZAaUcb8

This is a 2012 recording of a 1993 track - very early composition which proved pivotal the musical direction I would take. This track is a frequent revisit and I have recorded a later version, but the 2012 version is the rockiest of them all.

Retreated, remixed, remastered it almost sounds as new. Refurbished, if you will. All in 2021 for the release of the Overland album.
The earlier version of this track was already on my profile, but this one has now taken it's place.

lyrics:

fall ye through a wall of brick, could ye be such a heretic
yeah I know in your head you're sick but must ye be such a lunatic
so you say yes I am a freak as I kiss on your skin so bleak
let me dance upon your fire, let me feel your black and dire
and you say you are turning cold - let me see all your cards unfold
show me paths and then I could, don't lose grip now if I would be...

screaming in the haze... feeling little daze...
trapped in a maze... thrown away my face...

jump in front of the three eyed shadow of the night
maybe sing standing in the midst of the wailing tracks of never missed
there you were upon my fire over waves of desire
he told me so - a won't you try her - and I thought he was a liar!
I rather sing instead of talk,
I rather dance instead of walk
gimme gimme till I overflow
rather be high instead of low

screaming in the haze... feeling little daze...
trapped in a maze... thrown away my face...

you think I don't know you... don't I know you?

“Einen Augenblick noch....” 

Ein kurzer Augenblick noch vor dem Abschied. Eine Umarmung, ein zarter Kuss, ein tiefer Blick in die Augen beider Liebenden.

Bitte halt mich noch bevor Du gehst. Einen Augenblick.  
Diesen zarten aber durchaus fordernden Moment habe ich versucht mit diesem kleinen Cellostück akustisch in ein Klanggemälde zu verwandeln. 

Jeder von uns kennt diesen einen Augenblick. 

Eine weitere Fortsetzung in loser Folge von Kompositionen meines Cello Zyklus mit dem Titel „Charisma Cellos“

Begonnen habe ich mit den Kompositionen „Tagtraum“

“Just a moment”

A short moment before saying goodbye. A hug, a tender kiss, a deep look into the eyes of both lovers.

Please hold me before you go. Just a moment.
With this small cello piece, I tried to transform this tender but quite demanding moment acoustically into a sound painting.

Each of us knows this one moment.

Another continuation in a loose series of compositions from my cello cycle entitled "Charisma Cellos"

I started with the compositions "Daydream"

Insomnia is a wretched condition.

opening track of the "Fall" EP:
https://open.spotify.com/album/4UTItNTWHhAL0ASu6cm8rB


lyrics:

seems that all my songs 
of times long gone
cannot please
what I used to be

seems that all my songs
of times still to come
try telling me
what will never be

but I got to write
I got to fight
disintegration
suicide station

I don't write about love
I ride the rough
I don't write about pain
will never go away

but I got to write
I got to fight
disintegration
suicide station

running down the lane
over wide open plains
jumping on a train
with nothing against the rain

love love love love love
never have enough
pain pain pain pain pain
will never go away

but I got to write
I got to fight
disintegration
suicide station

running down the lane
over wide open plains
jumping on a train
with nothing against the rain

in a sleepless hour
my mind turns sauer
and I vision the tower
coming down like a shower

coming down
coming down

it's here 🐈

In A Sleepless Hour (version)

A very early track, in complete remake. There is an earlier remake on my profile too and a remix of that remake, but I never uploaded the original.

"redux" as in, rethunk and cut out some redundant verses.

closing track of the "Fall" EP
https://open.spotify.com/album/4UTItNTWHhAL0ASu6cm8rB

lyrics:

Manyman the missionary
his holy cross in hand
holding up his sacred book
he is fighting for his land

He passes the threshold of his thoughts
darkness conquering his mind
this confusion has only brought
a glance upon the other side

Manyman and his smiling mask
answering his divine task
could he conquer all that's ill?
Manyman's a man of will

and the missionary stumbles
and he's grabbing for a hold
all the words that once had built him
now make him choke upon his throat

Manyman projects away
cannot stand the light of day
reflects upon this failing grace
put Manyman back in his place

Manyman the world is open
Manyman it's there for you
do you know it's all you hoped for
there is nothing you can't do

Fall

over here ✨

Manyman (redux)

Fall sessions demanded to do remakes of a bunch of tracks that just ask for it.. again.

lyrics:

all the devils and the beasts now have gathered for the feast
behold the naked human meat - surely they won't eat the least
but the angel's left outside though this hell is opened wide
to her mercy long has died, escape the darkness she has tried
now she sees her dying moon - see her dancing in the gloom
through the mist and through this room
watch the angel's flower bloom

where the streets are shades, where the demon waits
the angel turns out to be strong, she embraces the angel song
and the calling from afar, see the rationale at war
feelings that were, feelings that are - bound together in a star

she is here for you to see, she is here for you to be
she holds the love that we all seek beneath the black, beneath the bleak

she is breaking through the glass - follow the footprints on the grass
float with the smoke through the sky - a-where the angel hides
and right here, up above, she's still crying out for love
she is sick of all the lies, she is sick not knowing why

and no, I can't believe - all the visions I receive
but the truth it must be real, I taught the angel to feel

here it is and here's it plain, now the angel's not the same
she knows now that she can see, I taught the angel to feel

the angel - feel

This is a cover song that Rekha and I did.  It's a Carpenters track and we held on to most of the original arrangement but took some creative license otherwise 

For me the Carpenters are like John Denver or the 80's hair metal scene - something I enjoy but don't tell just a whole lot of people about.   Doing this one was Rekha's idea and I think she nailed it.   This track is brought to life by her killer performance.  

There's a guitar intro to this thing here.  
https://soundcloud.com/texmex-shaman/weve-only-just-begun-or-whatever

Another note - I personally want to dedicate this track to my good friend and synth-master Steve Fullyard (@steve-fullyard) who married his lovely bride K very recently. I wish them both all the happiness they can handle.

Lyrics
We've only just begun to live
White lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we're on our way
(We've only begun)
Before the risin' sun, we fly
So many roads to choose
We'll start out walkin' and learn to run
(And yes, we've just begun)
Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watchin the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day
Together
And when the evening comes, we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow
(And yes, we've just begun)
Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watchin' the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day
Together
Together
And when the evening comes, we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow
And yes, we've just begun

We've Only Just Begun - w/ Rekha

After a trip through the Mediterranean with the paramour of my life years ago... these lyrics emerged as an expression of gratitude and love. Yesterday those lyrics found home in this new original composition.

Forever thinking about you and the family we've made baby.

Thinkin' About You

Sometimes it's all too much! A remake of a "Sun Tower" classic, (Shaels other band on SC) this one might help you with that weight on your shoulder. Sung sweetly by Sierra Wolfe, Shael Wrinch and Chris Herbsen on guitars, and produced as always by Shael at the Stone Hill studio on Bowen Island.

All the time
Never lie
Head up high

Visions unfolding
Pathways reopen
Neural control
Break through the wall

Demonized
Inner child
Let it out

Passions rekindled
Never it dwindled
Spiraling flight

Dance Of The Bacchantes

I had this tune in my head for quite a while, and now I finally recorded it. It's always fun to take new approaches to the recording process. It's certainly not as clean and polished as it could be, but there is another version in the works with the Laybow-legacy studio project. 

lyrics:

look, it's the sun that's coming back to shine
even the rain has never felt this fine

and the trees turn back to green
all the colours that you haven't seen for a long time
this past time, fading
to make place for a new day
a new scent is calling
and I will be falling in love again

look, there's a new bird in the sky
circling upward like it never got that high before

and the flowers in the street
so many faces new to meet
all our paths that intertwine
like the bees back to the hive
build another piece of life
like the bird that got so high
it's the only way to fly

always in springtime
a new scent is calling
I will surely be falling
in love again

Shattered Walls

The creature was dropped into what can only be described as an oversized glass jar. As it awoke, it dragged itself to the sides, feeling the cold glass against its unconventional skin. Images mixed with yellow light from the laboratory were blurred and distorted through the curved edges. The creature raised a shaking claw and gently tapped it against the glass...

Looking Through A Glass Jar

You bite the hand again, again 
you send your lovers on the run 
What the remains could not pretend 
that all the agony was fun 
 
This is my dream come true
This is my dream come true To be alone again with you
To be alone again

You bite the hand again, again 
You had your Time alone in the sun
I'm not the one who would defend 
The way you say your race was run

This is my dream come true
This is my dream come true To be alone again with you
To be alone again

You bite the hand again, again
