This is a trip, really cool flow and sound

Such a great spacey, mellow production. Nice vocals also.

Catchy tempo and melody with an addictive chorus.

Please enjoy with me the Reservoir Dogs. We are a Soundcloud Band and have already released some tracks, which you can find here:
https://soundcloud.com/kcm069/sets/the-reservoir-dogs
We have a very unique sound and it is a lot of fun to work on music in a band, as suddenly everything goes 4 times as fast, as 4 brains are working and 4 styles are coming together.
This song was created, as Tot. had sent me a drum synth track which was already epic and dark, when nothing had been added.
So I played a bass line and sent this to Ken and Andrea who immediately came back with their parts, which I then mixed and mastered.
I hope you will like it very much guys.

The Reservoir Dogs

Let Us Sing

The Reservoir Dogs - Let Us Sing

The burning eternal question - do you love me?
Do you love me, you love me?
Well so do people who sell ice-cream
They'll say anything, they think I'd like to hear

Do yo love me like they do?

Hey girl, you better watch out
cos people care not for what you may
Though it's written on their faces
They hide behind sweet words

Anybody for ice-cream (or tennis)?
(a nod to @nic_nic_nic: Nic for tennis suggestion)

Change of Address

Hey Ho

Some of you will be familiar with this tune, and indeed it has been modified to include a bit of audio which was the basis of the theme. This bit of audio is the original recording of Stephen around 1982. I had looked for that recording for decades to be included just before the start off this song. Also, most recently I had redoubled my effort to find it to play for my beautiful wife as  she lay on her death bed. But, alas, I was only to find it the very day after her passing.

As you might imagine, the old cassette tape was full of hiss. So, my good friend and mentor, Sander (https://soundcloud.com/wane-of-summer), volunteered to help subtract that flaw and render Stephen's little voice to crystal clarity. Well, that is very much part of Sander's trademark. Thank you, Sander.

And below follows the original description of the song:


This is a song from a child which has no voice of his own. Having succumbed to the side effects of a childhood vaccination, he was never able to learn the spoken word...though through some miracle he seems to have developed perfect pitch. 

How would I know? Well, if I pick up various objects which can make a tone if they are blown into, though he may have heard it only once before, he will sometimes sing the note as it is being picked up. Blow into that object and, sure enough, he is in tune with it.

He was only about 3 years old when we were trying in vain to get him to speak into a tape recorder. Instead, he came up with this tune, which I decided to just add accompaniment. The original recording actually had his voice on it, but it has been lost over the years.

Round About

This piece is based on the following:  I have long wondered at the percentage of "ambient" sound we suppress: infrastructure noises; highway traffic; fog horns; etc. etc.  That leads me to ponder the cost, if any, of utilizing a portion of our "energy" to continually suppress such sounds.   Finally, that in liberating and "redeeming" said disregarded, suppressed sounds, one can experience beauty and musicality.  This piece was made by my carrying a handheld digital recorder and perambulating a wide swath of my home neighborhood.   Moving through inhabited, to graveyard district industrial, to waterfront, underpass, basketball (that's the ghost of John Cage shooting hoops).  The buildings hum and the birds sing counterpoint.  I have managed, thus far, to suppress an overwhelming urge to start caressing, folding, manipulating, pounding these sounds into something else.  As they stand, however, many of them would be worthy of any electronic ambient composition and I wanted to present them in their natural glory.  Hence, while doing a minimal amount of trimming, snipping and constructing a coherence to the piece, I stayed away from reverb, looping, delay, compressor etc. etc.

A couple of things:  Some of the sounds are church services that I passed by.  I don't know the churches or the singers but I found them to be exceedingly beautiful and of great meaning to me.  It is with profound respect that I offer my thanks.  Similarly, I don't know who took the picture...it looked cool and appropriate, however.  Thank you!  

Hope you enjoy!!

The feeling of 3 Day later
I don't usually smoke cigarettes, but on this day, in memory of him, I lit "one cigarette" and took a puff.
I always do the same when a close friend dies.

2 eyes to eyes see me 
2 ears to ears to hear me 
arrive by phone, 2 children 
your hand, my hand, we're wiilling... 
what have we done? 

try and figure 
nothing could be smart 
wake up early, start a new tomorrow 

'there goes my baby' 
i can't close my eyes... 

2 eyes to eyes see me 
2 ears to ears to hear me 
to seek to hear makes us said 
your heart just in time, be careful... 
what have you done?
