Nice collection of vocal harmonies on the intro. Funky sampling/slicing timing too. :)

Stylish, well constructed, and brimming with upbeat vibes. Fun track, Rick. :)

An interesting, fun and original take - a nice contrast between the samples and that heavy rhythm beat

Younique indeed. Signature Shearer. Cool stuff man

collabs always yield interesting results. nice

Very nice intro..great harmony..brilliant vocal lyric track..captivating & mesmerizing soundtrack! excellent mix & recording production! Hypnotizing work!

I like many am shocked and appalled at what is unfolding before us. In the midst of this darkness I salute the people who are opening their hearts and offering assistance to the refugees from this disastrous conflict.

Here are some UK links to appeals providing humanitarian aid. I'm sure each country has equivalent appeals happening now.

I created some heavy beats and thought vocal samples would be a nice addition. I came across isolated vocal samples of:
Thinkin Bout You - Frank Ocean > male vocals and lyrics (therefore my title "Ocean Lines").
The Power (Snap! song) > female vocals
With my composition, I arranged the vocals vary differently than heard in the original songs in order to create something unique.

Ocean Lines - Rick Shearer

I’ve traveled the seas and I’ve wandered the lands
I’ve sprinkled the seeds grown into these grass
Encircled by peaks I’m unable to pass
I feel like a stone being crushed into sand

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Fall asleep with a gun and wake up with a knife
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
No blood on my hands no guilt in my mind
My body is old but I give what I can
These are the deeds of a desperate man

I came to a town where nobody smiled 
And tilted my hat to a woman and child
I offered support but the people were shy
Their soil ablaze and the desert is dry

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Cloak your skin from the sun fornicate with the night
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
Overcome by the heat and it messed with my mind
My shoulders are frail but I do what I can
These are the deeds of a desperate man

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Fall asleep with a gun and wake up with a knife
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
No blood on my hands no guilt in my mind
My body is old but I give what I can
These are the deeds of  a desperate man

Desperate Man

A Hundred Years From Now 
by Caddigan, Brennan and Story (1914)

Every one today is going crazy,
Everyone today is going mad
Each one is trying to do something decidedly new
Just to put the rest in bad
Everyday they change the style of dancing
Everyday they change the style of dress
Oh, Boys what is it coming to?
That's a problem we will have to guess

I wonder what kind of life they'll lead 
A hundred years from now?
I wonder what's going to be the speed
A hundred years from now?
The girlies are setting a pace today
That's turning the locks of gold to grey
We're living a life of constant alteration

I wonder if they'll have a tango dance
A hundred years from now?
I wonder if men will wear short pants
A hundred years from now?
There's no solution
It's all evolution
I wonder, and wonder, and wonder
How much the girls are going to wear
A hundred years from now?

Picture this town that once was just a pasture
Picture the girls who roam'd it years ago
They were the wonderful kind
You know the kind I've in mind
The sort of girl the world calls slow
Think of a girl today out in a meadow
Raking the hay a la decolletée?
No chance not in a thousand years
The girls today are all for cabaret

I wonder what kind of life they'll lead 
A hundred years from now?
I wonder what's going to be the speed
A hundred years from now?
The girlies are setting a pace today
That's turning the locks of gold to grey
We're living a life of constant alteration

I wonder if they'll have a tango dance
A hundred years from now?
I wonder if men will wear short pants
A hundred years from now?
There's no solution
It's all evolution
I wonder, and wonder, and wonder
How much the girls are going to wear
A hundred years from now?

Cosmic Danse – The Planetary Shuffle
February 2023
Duration: 3:00
Listen to the Cosmic Danse Playlist: https://soundcloud.com/bruce-klepper-1/sets/comic-danse
Special thanks to John-Marc Ventimiglia https://soundcloud.com/john-marc-ventimiglia for his highly valued musical input and for creating the planetary panning/gliss/rotation tool that was used to compose this piece.

The Solar System is the gravitationally bound system of the Sun and the objects that orbit it. It formed 4.6 billion years ago from the gravitational collapse of a giant interstellar molecular cloud.  The four inner system planets—Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars—are terrestrial planets, being composed primarily of rock and metal. The four giant planets of the outer system are substantially larger and more massive than the terrestrials. The two largest, Jupiter and Saturn, are gas giants, being composed mainly of hydrogen and helium; the next two, Uranus and Neptune, are ice giants, being composed mostly of volatile substances.  The orbits of the planets are ellipses with the Sun at one focus, though all except Mercury are very nearly circular. The orbits of the planets are all more or less in the same plane, called the ecliptic and defined by the plane of the Earth's orbit.  The orbits of the planets, based on Earth's 1 year orbit, are as follows: Mercury .24 years, Venus .61, Earth 1.00, Mars 1.88, Jupiter 11.86, Saturn 29.46, Uranus 84.01, Neptune 164.80, Pluto 248.80.  They all orbit in the same direction, counter-clockwise looking down from above the Sun’s north pole; all but Venus, Uranus and Pluto also rotate in that same sense. 
For alto sax, tenor sax, baritone sax, trumpet, metallophone, piano, bass, virtual instruments and percussion.

I'm told I "think outside of the box".  It's hard to think why I'd be inside one in the first place.  A FREE DOWNLOAD of some of my tracks:

My music and production style can sound unique, unconventional and surprising, all for good reasons and intentions. Thanks to all who have listened, liked, reposted and/or commented throughout the years . I always notice and respond.
