Just for fun. 

I shared a rehearsal space in the basement of Westbeth Artist Housing (please see the photo) in the late 70’s. This music has to do with my dream-memory of the place.

The basement was labyrinthine. Until a few years ago, I still had recurring dreams of that environment. It was constructed of grey painted cinder block or some such stony material. There were many bands in many rooms down there, and as you walked the halls you’d hear all the musics leaking out from under steel doors in cacophony. Often you’d hear the band in the next cell right through your own stone wall as you were playing. That made it hard to record in there. We did it anyway. 

The sonic qualities of this recording remind me of those hallways as do some of the somewhat antiquated guitar moves. And by the way, I love antiquated guitar moves!

Westbeth Catacombs

Rainfall and a haunting melody, born from the ecological devastation wrought by Vale's Rio Doce catastrophe. A predicted tragedy, echoing through communities surrounding Brazil's mines.

It’s gonna rain, the dry land will soak.
It’s coming down, the dam will provoke.
It’s the law, we’ll pay the toll.

It’s gonna burn if the earth gets too hot.
We’re gonna lose if the water won’t drop.
It’s the law, don’t let it rot.

Can we still believe in this land,
That elects mining tycoons as eco-grads?
Miners who killed the people,
Who killed the rivers’ soul,
Who turned into mud what God once made whole.

Is it worth it? Will it be worth it?

Rise again, from ashes to bloom.
Learn to care, before it’s our doom.
To live, to breathe.
To live, to breathe.

Without nature, life will fade.
If we don’t start now, nothing will be saved.

Creating something new. I'm a singer, professionally trained and singing since I was 4 years old. I can sight read music, play the piano, and have been in competitive choirs and musicals throughout my life. I've also a coder since I was 11 years old. In addition, I've written all my life to cope with my ever-shifting landscapes. So yes, I'm a storyteller and poet. You may even find some of my elementary work out there in some K-12 poetry book. Who knows, or my vocals in a choir soundtrack from back in the day. Or me wiggling my butt on a stage in South Korea.  I'm developing a style. I like to blend my voice with AI that I train. This sound you hear is my natural / AI trained contralto voice that I spent many hours and I legally own as it's mine. I also blend it with AI vocals and systems that I legally can make voices on or use because of licensing agreements. As a result I've developed a style. It's intentional. I call it the "baby raptor sound" as I like frequently to use clashing sounds to signify a merging of technology and sound. Like it or not, it's my signature sound now and its not a mistake, it's a choice. Hope you enjoy my music, as much as I love writing, composing, producing, mixing, and mastering it. Kind regards! Feedback is always welcome. 

What If

A mix of rock and instrumental 
Scottish heroes and stories of old 

The Mountains Weep

CHRIS AND WALTER ......

TROUGH MY LIFE
HERE AND THERE
ALL IN BETWEEN
NOTHING AND EVERYWHERE

I VE COME ACROSS LOST SOUL
LOOKING FOR SOMETHING
SOMEBODY TO HANG ON TO
THEN THERE WAS ME , A BUOY AT SEA
BRINGING THEM HOME TO ME
ALL THEM , ALL THEM SOULS

SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN
HELL AND ME
AND WHAT THEY WHICH
THEY COULD BE

SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN
THEM AND ME
A BETTER PLACE
THEN THEY HAVE BEEN

WHERE THE DARKNESS AND THE SINS
OF HUMANITY
HAVE TAKEN THEM TO
SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN 

THEIR LOST AND FEELING BLUE
IN THE DARKNESS
JUST LOOKING FOR SOMETHING
TO HOLD ON TO
SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN 
HELL AND HEAVEN
SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN
HELL AND ME 
THAT S ME .......

I M WAITING FOR YOU ALL ......

SOULS IN BETWEEN

POLICE IS NOT DEAD
Video here : 
https://youtu.be/svCTyzwtaEs?si=yoonowQTUTfxXGq4

Couplet 1
La matraque bien aimantée
aux espérances des damnés
sans tes yeux plus aucunes violences constatées

Y'avait déjà dans les quartiers
de belles zones de libertés
Faut dire qu'ils aiment tellement le bleu
qu'ils finissent par t'en laisser

Refrain
Oh oh oh
police is not dead
Oh Oh
Police is near
Oh Oh
the beast is well fed
OH OH
Nothing to fear

Couplet 2
époque ponctuée de JT
faut bien nourrir l'anxiété
en toi nait maintenant
ce désir brulant d'sécurité

les esprits sur fascisés
embrassent les soldats du marché
ils préfèrent bien craindre cet autre
que jouir de leur liberté

Moins de plumes et plus d'épée
ils mutilent le social la santé
t'inquiète y'a toujours du budget
pour ces bourgeois protéger

on gaze et toi tu te tais
l'opposition c'est danger
il n'y a bien que des terroristes
pour s'user à tant à gueuler

Refrain

Couplet 3
C'est dur d'encore espérer
le critique est bâillonné
le possédant achète gâchettes médias et toute ses armées

Un lot d'urgences cumulées
le pouvoir bien cramponné
le poids des privilèges ne tient plus qu'par la "force" des condés

pas sur que l'autorité
survive à + 4 degrés
en cas de crise je mise mieux sur l'aide, la solidarité

Il se tend il va céder
l'empire sans vitalité
nul ne peut être la solution
du problème qu'il a crée

Pont
viens à la fête
sans opinion
l'usine à bête
creuse son sillon

Refrain 

Police is not dead - Video clip in description

A relationship song.  A song with symbolism, innuendo and up for personal interpretation.  This song is about trying to hang onto the things that matter and letting go of what doesn’t.  Fix what's worth fixing, don't walk away and brush it off as 'C'est la vie'.    We need to feel comfortable in any relationship.  Things sometimes come to us easy but can also be easily lost.  It’s important to take a step back during these experiences and take it all in, do an emotional inventory and change along the way.  If you've made the effort and it didn't happen then... easy come, easy go.

EASY COME, EASY GO
(c) JunkHeap Oct 16 2021 / Remixed-Remastered Jun 2025


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

The morning sun wakes them.
Looking out their window at the day.
Summer isn't here to stay.

There's always someone 
hoping and believing.
Someone always looking in vain,
trying to make their pain go away.

Easy come and we all know,
we need to take a step back, 
and take it all in.

I just want to be me.
  
Eat, drink and be merry
this may be your last meal.
The leaves have turned,
the colours are such a big deal.

Chances pass, fleeting opportunity.
Hindsight should not be regret.
Just make a mental note and move on
before you're dead.

Easy come, easy go. 
we need to take a step back, 
and take it all in.

Easy Come Easy Go

TORRENTS SPINN

Sat on these vocals for 5 years before I just sent it, turned out ok I guess, I dunno.

Thanks For That

Before you go to heaven you’ve got to go to hell
Through the smoky chambers where the shadows dwell
Fire licking at your boots the stories they tell
Ashes on your shoulders and a ghostly smell

Hold on tight to your soul don't let it slip away
The devil’s deals are plenty and the lost hearts stray
But through the chaos and the flames there’s a brighter day

Before you go to heaven .mp3

Freedom is not Free - Master 12/23/2011 Lyrics by Tony Harris

AS I ENTERED THE VA HOSPITAL FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME
MEMORIES, FLOODED MY SOUL
CHINA BEACH - NAM - SEVENTY ONE CAME TO MIND
AND ONE YOUNG MAN I NEVER WILL FORGET
WITH BOTH LEGS GONE AND RIGHT ARM MISSING
A WEDDING BAND TOLD ME THAT A WIFE WAS WAITING
I OFTEN WONDER WHERE HE IS TODAY
AND I WONDER IF HE IS OK

CHORUS
SOMETIMES WE FORGET THAT FREEDOM IS NOT FREE
THOUSANDS HAVE DIED FIGHTING DON'T YOU SEE
IN A FAR AWAY COUNTRY IN HARMS WAY
PLEASE REMEMBER THEM WHEN YOU PRAY
PLEASE DON'T FORGET THAT FREEDOM IS NOT FREE

AS I ENTERED ARLINGTON FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME
ALL THE WHITE TOMBS BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES
AS THE HONOR GUARD SLOWLY PLACED THE REEF
IT SEEMED THAT I FELT MY HEART SKIP A BEAT
I THOUGHT OF THOSE WHO HAD DIED
AND ALL THE MAMA'S THAT HAVE CRIED
THERE IS NO WAY TO IMAGINE ALL THE PAIN
FREEDOM IS NEVER EASY TO OBTAIN

REPEAT CHORUS

PLEASE DON'T FORGET THAT FREEDOM IS NOT FREE

FREEDOM IS NOT FREE - Lyrics by Tony Harris / Music by David Walker (Original)

🌟 **Join Me on This Musical Journey!** 🌟  
I'm open to collaboration, just reach out via e-mail. I create all my music. I write it, mix it, run it through several systems, and if the voice isn't mine, it's created by me and trained. I have taught myself how to mix through audacity, and soundtrap, etc and still learning. I have been coding since I was 11 years old, writing since about 5 years old, telling stories since I was two and singing since I was 4. I can sight read, read and badly notate music, and play the piano. I'm teaching myself how to play the drums right now. 

In the next few weeks I’ll be reworking SoundCloud. Enjoy the songs. I’ll be slowing down the music process to 1 song to 2 songs per week now. I will start to transition the current songs to other platforms for easier listening. If anyone has favs they want available earlier, let me know. Enjoy!

Listen to my music. 
I'm a traveler of Worlds. 
Creator of realms, and storyteller at heart. 

Never stop dreaming, never stop laughing, and never stop listening. 
Always do your own research. 

I stand for unity and chilling out with as many people with like-minded vibes as I can.  

In my free time I like to hang out in my mind and create stories about other Worlds, mainly involving complicated time travel nonlinear plots. Wanna know my story? 
Just ask me? 


My songs are my journal, and an open music lab experiment. I need to make music to not be depressed and go into dark, dark places. It's like water for me. 

Feel free to share here, but if you use it for nefarious purposes, well I believe in karma . Peace out, and see you soon. 

Enjoy and never forget, question everything!

PS - Cat lover forever (Yes, I'm a F'ing cat lady Mr. Vance, what are you gonna do about it now?)
