Love the sense of movement on this and the feel of Copland in as much as it captures America so well.

Listen to some Square Enix songs. They would dig this tune for their video games. Very original. Very good!

Oh this is so much fun and very different from your other music I've listened to.

Wow, this is really innovative Irish and Middle-Eastern inspired original composition. This track has proven for me ,that you are a confident, and free composer, writing music you really think it is original and touches the heart of the musical treasure seekers.

Wow! The melodies merged together beautifully!

So good, it doesn’t go where you expect it to, which follows the stage action, I’m sure.

Raining Hearts and Minds

A song about the joy of live music (plus a music triva quiz- how many references can you get?!)

EDIT 01/05/21: complete rework of this track for a more raw upbeat, pop-ier feel to match the theme of live music

LYRICS:

I’ve paraded with the wolves amid the stink of sweat and booze
Joined the kids with the fringes sharp as blades
In rebellions in burnt arcades
I missed out on paradise but the drummer’s karma rocked me twice
I’ve sampled new pornography and walked with spiders nationally
Jacked up my red blood cells
Kicking televisions in Yankee hotels

There’s nowhere else I’d want to go
This is the place, this is the moment now
This is the song, this is the show

We’ve sung along to the greatest song and we’ve seen the devil cry
Saw a beautiful world inside a cave, exploded in the sky
The world has turned while empires fake and in our dreams the levee breaks
I was adored and resurrected by common people that we selected
The pink moon showed us what to feel
And we promised the android the plastic tree was real

This is the Moment Now

Trolls in the Cloud

Soul of a YETI

Psycho convo(prod.Pri’sizhen)

Take a load off, weary adventurer, at the Cloak and Compass Tavern!

Did you ever drove late in the night feeling trapped by your thoughts, while listening at high-volume music?

I used to do so each weekend in the past, when I was working in a pub in the 90s..  and I somehow miss that special time with my thoughts.. even today <3

\m/ Love Music (always) and Stay Safe <3

Michael Drexler performs his original arrangement of Bohemia Rag by Joseph Lamb

"Knockoff is a beautiful little ditty, with the soft vocal style mixing together in lovely fashion with the dual guitar melodies that provide most of the music here. It’s catchy, but it never sounds too commercialised, and it’s one of those tracks that you’ll have to listen to a few times before you fully hear everything – it sounds simple at first, but there’s a lot more going on in the background than you realise at first." - By Jane Howkins

Knockoff

Duration: 13'
Instrumentation: for trumpet, violin, cello, piano, marimba (six-mallets), percussion, harp and banjo

PROGRAM NOTES
Journey into Courage is a documentary directed by Bess O'Brien about domestic violence in rural Vermont. It was originally a touring stage production with a cast of women from rural Vermont who were victims of domestic violence. The documentary is largely made up of footage shot during the tour as well as interviews of the women in the stage production.

Journey into Courage Suite is derived from the soundtrack for the documentary and is intended to be performed on stage as a suite for eight musicians. The performing ensemble can choose which versions (if there are multiple ones) of each piece it will perform. The short version, e.g. without repeats, may be performed if a shorter suite is desired.

Peatlands hold over 3 times the carbon of all the forests of the world... we kind of have to keep it in the ground... but we do need to keep warm, and we love our roses...

ROSES: LYRICS

brought you something you may never need
I think its supposed to keep you warm 
found you something you might not need to keep
but it’s the little things
it’s the precious things
its the everything
it’s the anything
you want…

show you something you’ve never seen
it’s from a place you’ve never been
take you somewhere when the leaves go green…
we could go somewhere
go anywhere
that never were
we ever meant to be…
but we’d better keep...

keep
those roses now
don’t hack them down
digging up those roses…
keep
those roses now
don’t cut them down
digging up those roses… 
should have left them in the ground

when you’ve found somewhere 
you need to be
you know i’ll bridge you across
every stone, every leaf and tree
and i will shield you from 
any sense of loss
Any touch of frost
you feel beneath your feet
cos its the little things
the precious things
the anything
that helps us feel complete…

but we’d better keep…
we’d better keep…
keep
those roses now
don’t hack them down
giving up those roses…
Keep those roses now,
Don’t cut them down
Digging up those roses...

should have left them in the ground
should have left them where I found
should have kept them
safe
where they’d never be found
kept them in the ground
underground
kept them safe
from the lost and found
keep them in the ground
underground…

keep those roses…
