Lyrics:

Break away from the stain that you call society
disgraced attitude 
that reacts violently. 
Fuck it all killem all is how I brawl no restraint 
only war paint no saint 
take that shit to the bank. 

You nothing but a joke wearing an yella cloak. 
Quick to getcha jaw broke, leave the pavement blood soaked.
its a fact I'm a mac with this bat I'll make ya head splat.
Nothing left to say 
it's just not your day.

As I put this bat in my hand mother fucker
ain't made of sand it's real and will break through ya grill.
What a thrill when I come up to ya house kick ya door down 
see ya family frown when I show´em daddy is just a clown.
just a clown
just a clown
just a clown
clown

I will die before I bow down and lay at their feet.
Show no fear I'll make it clear that it's just not in me.
Ignore the lies that they feed into your mind.
Redefine realign redesign. It's about time.

I will die before I bow down and lay at their feet.
Show no fear I'll make it clear that it's just not in me.
Ignore the lies that they feed into your mind.
Born and bred to be free, america can't you see.
They´re taking away everything

your chances are slim

Fuck you fuck them 
these visions gettin grim 
sanitize going dim
your chances are slim
for nothing you have live 
nothing left to give 
nothing left to say 
it's just not your day.

it's just not your 
day
it's just not your

You come to me before you get to the gates. 
I become a monster in the shadows
when you look under your bed. 
Motherfucker you hear what I said. 
Im the one that will cut off your head..

You´re all weakkkk. 

I will die before I bow down and lay at their feet.
Show no fear I'll make it clear that it's just not in me.
Ignore the lies that they feed into your mind.
Redefine realign redesign. It's about time.

AWD's Just Not Your Day feat. NASP

“Grill that Snapper” stands as a track that bridges the gap between the introspective nature of acoustic music and the bold expressiveness of electronic music. It's an audacious fusion that respects the listener's intelligence and emotional capacity, promising a rich and rewarding listening experience. Each note and silence in between tells a part of a greater story. This piece isn’t mere background music; it's a sophisticated journey through sound that demands active listening and rewards with layers of intricate details.

It begins with a soulful dialogue between a plucked acoustic guitar and a warm legato bass, setting a scene of introspective calm. The guitar's melody, adorned with subtle sound FX, tells a poignant story without words, inviting listeners into a world of reflective tranquillity.

Transitioning into the first verse, the mood remains contemplative yet gains texture. The upright bass, intertwined with an electronic sub, takes the lead, its legato tones painting a soundscape of introspection and subtlety. Here, the guitar shifts to a supporting role, its strings now weaving a background tapestry. This section is coloured by chords that evoke a jazzy feel, their complex harmonies hinting at emotional depths and unspoken narratives.

The bridge emerges as a delicate duet between guitar and piano, their interplay creating a sense of intimacy and shared secrets. This brief interlude builds gently, the chords simplifying yet deepening the emotional resonance. The addition of cello and bass strings, along with legato sax and oboe, lends a classical touch, further enriching the tapestry of sound.

As “Grill that Snapper” progresses, it gradually turns up the heat. The entrance of a straightforward, pulsing 4/4 beat marks a shift to a more vibrant, electronic landscape. Bowed violins add drama over the steady rhythm, their melodies intertwining with heavy piano chords. The juxtaposition of the electronic rhythm with the jazzy downward chord progression creates a dynamic tension, a dance between two worlds.

Reaching its climax, the track becomes an electrifying blend of filtered arpeggios and orchestral drums. The chaos of the arpeggios, set against the backdrop of a rhythmic electronic beat, paints a picture of controlled frenzy, a climax of emotional and musical intensity.

In its final act, “Grill that Snapper” returns to its acoustic origins, revisiting the serene mood of the opening verse. The outro, a mirror of the initial bridge, serves as a contemplative denouement, bringing the listener full circle. It's a conclusion that invites reflection, a moment to absorb the rich journey that has unfolded.

The Detroit underground dark jazz scene brings forth The Dark Messiahs' latest track, "Kid Twist." The melody of the piano weaves its way through the song with its hypnotic ostinato.

Blue Six's trumpet cuts through the atmosphere with a raw, distorted edge, adding an element of gritty allure to the ensemble. Tully Wilson's clarinet dances in and out of the arrangement, casting its spell, while Wilt Flowers' bass provides a steady, heartbeat that anchors the composition.

But it's Sonny Rhodes' piano that truly steals the spotlight, guiding you through the piece. From moments of melancholic reflection to bursts of more frenetic energy backed by Sticks Thompson's masterful drumming, driving the rhythm forward with precision and passion.

With its seamless blend of dark beauty and experimental fervor, "Kid Twist" allows you to close your eyes, and let The Dark Messiahs whisk you away into a world where dark jazz lives.

Kid Twist by The Dark Messiahs. Dark, doom jazz from Detroit.

Nights Alone

It's a blessing to be able to create music and if someone enjoys my work, that's icing on the cake! All blessings come from God.

As a retired DOD Civil Service worker, I have time to record some. I have been recording at home for around 23 years and some of my tracks are very old.  I‘ve had 50+ years in bands playing music of many types. I still play the club scene 3 to 4 times a month. Life is good!

I'm a Guitarist who likes to write, record and sing many styles of music. Please check out my tracks. I'm also enjoying the occasional collaborations.  Meeting some good friends on here and continuing to grow. Thank you for listening!

Soy un guitarrista al que le gusta escribir, grabar y cantar muchos estilos de música. Por favor, echa un vistazo a mis pistas. También estoy disfrutando de las colaboraciones ocasionales. Conocer a algunos buenos amigos aquí y seguir creciendo. ¡Gracias por escuchar!
