Great and very cool soundscape..amazingly done 💫

Excellent  sounding track-Great melodies 😊

✨ This piece feels like sonic stardust...drifting between dimensions, whispering ancient truths to tomorrow's dreamers.

'Funtronica' is exactly right. This is great!

Daily Drops

more experimenting with arranging sampled sounds & loops. a little slow to build up, but once the horns and hammond organ kick in, it's pretty funky.

-sampled instruments include: rhythm & lead electric guitar, some bass, filtered piano, horns, some drums & perc
-instruments played by me include: organ, drums & perc, a tiny bit of electric piano and bass at the transitions  

All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve. :)

Lyrics
Pre Chorus
No imagination—-no glory
Worry don’t set ——the pace

Verse1
each level deeper——— keep it positive ——
—-no negative ——when I come through——
🎵It’s unedited
Playing the odds———I won’t lose
living life —-no regrets, is what I choose 🎵
open bars, liquid——-flow
drink it up ———here we go
Wow —-wow—-wow
now you know
rhymes so——- magical
X’s and O’s ———-crossing lines like
tic-tac-toe

Verse2
Throwing kisses ——count it—-SWAK
tapping out Beats—— enemies being taxed
Hitting the streets, with pleasantries
—-Every key, belong to me, gate keeper.
Can you see—-it has to be——number one priority?
Keep it 100—-come on
Peep That shadow —-by my side
That’s the Grim Reaper

What’s money worth—— when life is much cheaper,
hand-to-hand, with death,
Each level deeper,
Each level deeper
the lesson you learn ——only once
he’s a great teacher [Echo]

Chorus

No imagination—-no glory
Worry don’t set ——the pace
No imagination—-no glory
Worry don’t set ——the pace——peace!-(X2)

Verse3

each level deeper, keep it positive no negative
when I come through——It’s unedited
Playing the odds, I won’t lose
🎵living life —-no regrets, is what I choose 🎵

Each level deeper, ever since the beginning,
convince, but still winning,
musically I’m pimping,
better come on get’em
dress to the left—-even my limp got rhythm
each beat —— a beat that—— tell a story,
Unlimited ——imagination ————brings it glory.
Don’t worry—-Don’t worry

Verse1

open bars, liquid——-flow
drink it up ———here we go
Wow —-wow—-wow
now you know ——now you know
rhymes so——-magical
X’s and O’s ———-crossing lines like
tic-tac-toe

Verse2

——————break—————-

Each level deeper, ever since the beginning,
convince, but still winning,
musically I’m pimping,
better come on get’em
dress to the left—-even my limp got rhythm
each beat —— a beat that—— tell a story,
Unlimited ——imagination ————brings it glory.
Don’t worry—-Don’t worry

🎵Worry don’t set the pace——
Worry don’t set the pace🎵
Each level deeper
Each level deeper [Echo]

Each Level Deeper (IPG1 & Cosmic Keanu)

Let's take a look in here, inside my head
Spider webs and dust blowing everywhere
Oh, wait! Something there moved, an original thought?
Or rats scrounging for a crumb of food

Jets passing overhead, cut across the blue sky
Then scream away

Poets dream of being read to sounds of music
Clowns dance alone in the privacy of home
Yellow tape cut down, some people gather around
Webs and dust blow on their bones

And then, what do you know, I remembered something important
Then it slipped away

Cut The Blue Sky

I was walking down Mare Street, Hackney
Climbing boots and back pack on
Looking for a song of mountains
I had climbed them many times before
Challenge may help to find another door

I’ve climbed arduous N.H.S mountains
Planted flags a'top of wedlock peaks
Hung upside down on magical fountains
With my muscles springing major leaks
My heart is growing smaller by the week

Stood and pointed at hours of darkness
Winds of silence a challenge of their own
Worn out boots a testament to distance
But the misery of counting my toes alone
Sixty three feet behind me as it goes

I have loved being a man of mountains
I hope many will profit from my deeds
I will try to climb just one more mountain
Slide down the other side to save my feet
At the bottom I'll need brand new cleats

This was written over 10 years ago as a George Formby style (Google the name if you’ve never heard of him) ukulele song - a mildly amusing message to Gal to let him know that I was fully aware of the mental health difficulties he was having and that I would always be there if he needed me.

Over the years, we spoke often about the song but nothing much came of it until Gal suggested slowing the tempo and giving it a kind of shuffle beat. As it was about him, I thought he should definitely sing the lead vocal, which I think works rather well. (*Vocalist’s note: It would help if I could still sing…)

You’ll find many personal references to Gal’s life in the lyrics. At the time it was written, he was 63, literally a fatal age for men in the extended Reeves family and he wasn’t having the best of times himself, still wrestling with the grief of a marriage break-up alongside the loss of his big brother and closest friend less than a year before. But even with all of this going on (and not always out of choice) he found there were plenty more mountains to climb.

The transition of the tune from Formby to Albers is a story in itself but suffice it to say that Hans somehow managed to transform it into this rather poignant opus.  He has also made a beautiful film to accompany the piece (see link above). All in all, it testifies perfectly to the reason why Gal’s cleats are somewhat care-worn...and he still has many mountains yet to climb.. (Terry Reeves)

Avenir.

Comme un pauvre  Vagabond 
errant sur les chemins de sa  vie chiffon 
Comme un poète maudit 
Écrit sur le sable mouillé 

Refrain 
Ta  voie  est là, juste un premier pas  suffit pour partir 
laiss’ pas   la peur  te voler ton désir ton avenir

Copie le saltimbanque
qui jongle habile avec ses envies - envie 
La statue immobile
qui voudrait s’envoler  s’en aller


Comme une poussée de sève 
Réveille  ta vie , refleurit le Monde  tu rêve 
C'est dans cette  lumière qu’il te faudra tracer   ta route

Imagine le monde
C'est temps pour toi d’entrer dans la rond(e) tu vois 
C’est ça  C’est ce premier pas 
qui t’a fait saisir ta vie c’est  ça

!--- Translate

Future.

Like a poor Wanderer 
wandering the paths of his rag life 
Like a cursed poet 
Written on wet sand 

Refrain 
Your path is there, just a first step is enough to leave 
Don’t let fear steal your desire, your future

Copy the acrobat
who skillfully juggles with his desires - desire 
The motionless statue
who would like to fly away


Like a rush of sap 
Wake up your life, the world you dream of blooms again 
It is in this light that you will have to trace your path

Imagine the world
It's time for you to enter the circle you see 
This is it, this is the first step 
who made you grab hold of your life, that’s it

Avenir (Instrumental version)

Ain't nothing but beavers living up there

I Got Cooties In Vancouver

Lyrics:
I'm the dark prince
On leave from the castle
The wine was over served
Feasting on the metaphors
Operas left unheard
Jewel encrusted areoles
Glass bottom gondolas
The saccharine muses
Behind the literary personas
Will you share this fever dream, my love? (2X)

Your God's most marvelous creation
In between the inhalations
I'm stuck here in this tourist trap
On the Astral Plane
I have nothing left to lose
And nothing left to blame
Synesthesia feelings
Have a similar refrain
Will you share this fever dream, my love? (2X)

My European suits
I'm a gentleman of leisure
The sounds from the unknown
Message and receiver
The trumpets blast in the city distance
I'm among the bourgeois class
Napoleonic pursuits
Kept under wraps

You were lost in my dream
I had your hand
I lost you in the waves
You were lost to the sea
I look for you everywhere I go
In the rental cars
The midnight bars
In every future embrace

Will you share this fever dream, my love?

Broken People

Sojourner’s Truth is the debut jazz album from trumpeter and producer Jasir, a deeply personal project dedicated to his mother, Gwendolyn Sojourner Redus. The album weaves together warm, classic jazz textures with modern rhythmic drive, creating a sound that is both timeless and forward-looking.

Each track carries the spirit of resilience, love, and truth—qualities embodied by Gwendolyn and passed on through generations. With lush horn arrangements, soulful improvisations, and a rhythm section that grooves with understated power, Sojourner’s Truth is more than music—it is a heartfelt tribute, a sonic memoir, and an exploration of legacy through sound.

This album invites listeners into an intimate space where memory, emotion, and artistry converge. Rooted in the tradition of jazz yet unafraid to push boundaries, Sojourner’s Truth celebrates the enduring bond between music, family, and truth.
