That lead instrument is sweet, I like that bit @about 1min mark, hell of a tempo to dance to! A good light piece of dance music. :)

poppy tune and nice disco but artistic! Wow....

Yo! When the track started I was waiting for Debbie Harry to break into song but it soon became an excellent conceptual piece, nice work 👌

so good and creative music, and great harmony

Josh had the idea of doing a traditional Palestinian song, as he is an avid fan of their music. He wanted to raise awareness of this music and tie it to the idea it may cease to exist as a living musical tradition sooner than later. Everyone in the band was immediately on board with this idea, and set about to make it happen.
Mark, who is an expert percussionist, composed a typical traditional Middle Eastern style drum pattern, together with an Arabic scale melody, played on the Qanun (a kind of zither). To that he added the instrumental 'Zurna' solo in the middle, various other traditional instruments, and even sang the high pitch yodel sound at the end. Josh found this pattern fascinating, and added his five string fretless bass to the it shortly after. Carl jumped in very shortly thereafter, and came up with some really amazing vocal melodies, as well as wonderfully prescient lyrics. He even learned more than several phrases in Arabic, which he sang in there, too. We were all very impressed by this, of course.
JJ was next up, adding his magical, melodic, and exotic saz, shakuhachi, and synth to the mix. Ken threw in next, adding his perfectly timed brass and Chinese percussion to the mix, too. Last, but certainly not least, Stephen recorded his subtle, exotic, traditional sitar to the piece.
Once we had it all recorded, we turned it over to Mark for a mix, as the whole thing is really his baby. Stephen mastered it, though, as he is our resident professional producer.
Our hope is that this song inspires you to dig into Palestinian music, and through that, you experience a taste of the magic and the beauty of that region, despite suffering victims of war are experiencing there. But most of all, we hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:
Sisters and brothers
Daughters and Sons
We would give you food
But the road is blocked to sun
Proud Palestine
Brave brethren
Our hearts are with you
Our souls are weeping
Inhumane blockade of bread
Pains collective minds
We want gone this dread
Let's find our kind
Please be strong
As we right this wrong
Hope prays that day will not be long
We pine with your God
To find a normal truth
Where your kids can grow and learn good youth
Sisters and Brothers
Daughters and Sons
We are with you Palestine
Sending love through song
The eye sees but the arm is short ( العين ترى والذراع قصيرة )
We are in the same boat ( نحن في نفس القارب )
Winds do not blow as the ships wish ( لا تهب الرياح كما تشاء السفن )
Being alone is better then being with someone bad (أن تكون وحيدا أفضل من أن تكون مع شخص سيء )
What is hidden is more then what has happened ( ما هو مخفي أكثر مما حدث )
Every problem has a solution ( لكل مشكلة حل )
Good intentions count for as much as good actions ( النوايا الحسنة لها نفس أهمية الأفعال الحسنة )
All is well that ends well ( كل شيء على ما يرام إذا انتهى بشكل جيد )

At around ~78 BPM in D minor, “ORANATOL” balances gentle groove and cinematic stillness. It carries the calm elegance of jazz intertwined with the emotional resonance of Anatolia, a sonic horizon where sunlight fades into melody.

 I live in the " Real World  " lyrics by Glenny G
What's the matter with the car your driving it seems to be running fine 
"Fine Fine Fine Fine "
Why complain about the place your living it's just for doing time
" Time Time Time Time "
I can't worry about your mental state , I'm sick and tired of trying
" Bye Bye Bye Bye "
In just in case you can't relate ,  inside I feel like dying " I feel like crying "
But I'm working on me even though your walking out
I live in the real world not the one all filled with doubts 
So don't lay it on me girl cause I know what I need
 I live in the real not alone in fantasy
What's the matter with this watch I'm wearing it must be running slow
" Time time time time "
I thought I had so much more to do but I need some place to go
" Fun Fun Fun Fun "
Cruising down the lost highway it seemed to be where I'm bound
" Bounce Bounce Bounce Bounce "
I'm satisfy me a real soul someone who wont let me down
 " Wont Let me down "
Cause I'm working on me even though I'm running free
I live in the real world not a lone in fantasy
So don't lay it on me girl cause I know what I need
I live in the real world not alone in fantasy
I'm gonna take a long vacation and write myself a  sad sad song
Shake loose all this aggravation , heal my heart up oh so strong
I live in the real world . I live in the real world , I live in the real world
I LIVE IN THE REAL WORLD >>>>>>>>>>>>>

I live in the " Real World " !

I've been hearing so much AI music on SoundCloud lately that instead of jumping on the AI bandwagon, it's pushing me in the other direction where I want to do more songs with just me and my guitar.  
This is a live version that I played straight through from start to finish which I am using as an audition song for the Tucson Folk Festival.
And if you're curious, here's a link to a YouTube video of me singing a different version  the song live (iPhone recording). https://youtu.be/qMe4Uh39uhY?si=jBvf8uvDZQyDgiVg

Elvis in the 1970’s in his jumpsuit and his cape.
Some say he didn’t really die he just decided to escape.
Over the year’s there’ve been sightings like Bigfoot and UFO’s.
Of Elvis shopping at Walmart dressed in ordinary clothes.
They say it’s good to be king – but sometimes maybe it’s not.
When you’re coasting on your past glory and now, you’re lukewarm instead of hot.
If Elvis was still alive, he’d be approaching the century mark.
He’d be a tired old hound dog - would he still be able to bark.
If he put on a pair of blue suede shoes and he tried to shake his hips.
And he strummed his guitar on a street corner would people give him any tips.
They say it’s good to be king – but sometimes maybe it’s not
When you’re coasting on your past glory and now, you’re lukewarm instead of hot
There’s day’s when you feel like you’re trapped in a routine 
And you’re going through the motions, and you want to start fresh and clean.
Somewhere between 1968 and 1977 Elvis took a detour and he ended up in Heaven.
It’s nice to imagine that maybe he was sick of sick and tired of all that fame.
And one day he just decided to retire from playing the game.
If he sang that song love me tender, would it till make the young women swoon.
Or would they stare at him with curiosity like at the zoo when you see a baboon.
If he put on the black leather costume that he wore in 1968 
And he played the same set list would people still think he was so great?
Elvis in Black leather in 1968 strumming his guitar he looked so good
And his voice was really great.
At the top of his game in perfect form he could have stopped right then
He could have walked away - still would have still been a rock and roll legend
They say it’s good to be king – but sometimes maybe it’s not
When you’re coasting on your past glory and now, you’re lukewarm instead of hot.
They say it’s good to be king – but sometimes maybe it’s not
When you’re coasting on your past glory and now, you’re lukewarm instead of hot
