Quality Alternative/Indie Rock, and top vocals! 3 of your tunes have been added to SUPPORT gathers MOMENTUM when RECIPROCATED vol 1 https://soundcloud.com/gothic-funk/sets/support-gathers-momentum-when

This has a great mid 80’s alternative feel. Like definitely abtrack among alk the cassettes I might have had i.e. Cocteau Twins, Modern English, Echo!

Engaging structure and professional mixing. Love the smooth vocals and ethereal guitar

Fabulous track, great composition, performance, and production!

Very good song writing, impressive team work.

Mate, you are excellent. Love how it says you're a bass player first, but the bass is not in your face - you've prioritised good songwriting first and foremost.

Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this. So refreshing. if that's the right word. Merci!

I know a woman who's freezing at 20°C! 
Anyone else?

Alexander King parachuted into our town from New Orleans via Brisbane and set up a recording studio. We combined on this song 'Collect the Moment' which I'd just written on piano.

Collect the Moment

You in sintered glass buildings - trapped in recycled air
And I the frequent advisor - holding a too long stare
Do hormones control decisions – I ruminate in silence
While you the puppet’s mistress - are still non-compliant
As a gaggle collects - a space encroachment    
And I brush your arm to collect the moment 
Is it just I who’s a physical poet?
Did you brush my arm to collect the moment?

Now here’s the start of something - a fomenting act two
A party has erupted and lava like here’s you
The music creates a wall – an easy place to hide
To move the chess pieces – silently they glide
Randomly dancing – it’s I the proponent
And I brush your arm to collect the moment
Is it just I who’s a physical poet?
Did you brush my arm to collect the moment?

What do they mean these tactile encounters
Just a small hill or a range of mountains

And naked by proximity – alone in a lift
This accident of timing – embarrassment or gift?
We blurt it out together – something about today
And then an awkward silence – my courage gone astray
But we’re squeezed together through the door’s opening
And I brush your arm to collect the moment
Is it just I who’s a physical poet?
Did you brush my arm to collect the moment?

Forever (Happy the Man Mix)

Sing me a song of your heartache 
I’ll sing you a story of mine
And we can pretend it’s all on
An everything’s fine
Let me know all of your reasons
For being me here tonight 
Cause you know that I’ve wanted this
For a time

You said that you meant all the words of what you said
To the conversations we had 
Your leaving me, believing me 
All for reasons I don’t know

It’s so hard to wait
It’s so hard to wait forever and always 

You talk to me then you leave me
You take me to where I wouldn’t got
All along I feel so good
You make me feel whole
What can I do what can I say
To get the other one from between
Sit here and lie, maybe get mad
But it won’t go and solve a thing 

You’re leaving me while me while you bleeding me
For reasons I don’t know 
You said that you meant all the words of what you said
To the conversations we had  
You said that you meant all the words of what you said
To the conversations we had

It’s so hard to wait
It’s so hard to wait forever and always

Forever

"Backfire" is a song about false friends and wishing that their toxic shoots fire back at them. However, your wish stays a wish, because your pride and dignity keeps you from causing harm. 
Lemonbrew started the collaboration with a catchy and energetic rock progression. I rearranged the song and wrote lyrics and a vocal melody. Later, Flinn joined us to rock out the vocals. Thank you very much for collaborating, it's been a lot of fun!

==== LYRICS ====

You wasted my precious time
on spreading rumours and lies
Shooting me in  a drive-by
drawing me into riptide

I'll catch this ricochet
I gonna... misbehave and disobey,
I wanna... 

Watch how burn your fingers and...
build a castle on quicksand
or wade through wasted land
(Of course I wanna...)

Catch a ball and I fire it back to you!
Catch you out and I fire it back to you!
Catch hell and I fire it back 
And again and again and again 
That's what you make me do!

So I light up a light
To escape from the twilight
Not ready for the limelight
Not ready to start a fight

I'll catch this ricochet
I gonna... misbehave and disobey!

Catch a ball and I fire it back to you!
Catch you out and I fire it back to you!
Catch hell and I fire it back 
And again and again and again 
That's what you make me do!

That's what you make me do!

One day, I gonna be tough
give way for vengeance and grudge
I'll push you into the sludge
Where there is noone to judge

And I wanna... 

Catch a ball and I fire it back to you!
Catch you out and I fire it back to you!
Catch hell and I fire it back 
And again and again and again 
That's what you make me do!

That's what you made me do!

Backfire

originally sung by Jo Stafford . But has been sung by many great artist. I used a kind of Eva Cassidy backing track...  and as always i recommand listening with ear phones for best sound..

Thank you for listening :) 

Lyrics:
I´m quite disconnected
From main reality
Got no ties, got no debts
no ideology
AFK, I´m offline AFK, I´m offline
I am out of reach for
Generated needs
Don´t follow, don´t subscribe,
don´t eye 
the privacy of peeps
AFK, I´m offline AFK, I´m offline
I am from the underdogs
working trash, low income employees
I prefere a simple life
without applause, behind the scenes
AFK, I´m offline AFK, I´m offline
I live beside the screen
Fantasy is energy
I am not a target for 
custom made dreams
AFK, I´m offline AFK, I´m offline

Neli CoKo - AFK

Don't think sorry's easily said
Don't try turning tables instead
You've taken lots of chances before
But I ain't gonna give anymore
Don't ask me
Cuz that's how it goes
'Cause part of me knows what you're thinking

Don't say words you're gonna regret
Don't let the fire rush to your head
I've heard the accusation before
And I ain't gonna take any more
Believe me
The sun in your eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing

I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to see any more to know that
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind

Don't leave false illusion behind
Don't cry I ain't changing my mind
So find another fool like before
Cause I ain't gonna live anymore believing
Some of the lies while all of the signs are deceiving

I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to see any more to know that
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind

I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to see any more to know that
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind

Eye In The Sky

Dipping into the archives for this one, but one of my personal favorites when I played with gifted violinist Julie Evans many years ago. It came out of an improv session where we would brainstorm musical ideas and then refine the ones we liked.  The transfer from cassette tape worked pretty well with not a lot of hiss or tape flutter.  
I've come to understand that joy and melancholy are more soul mates than opposites, both being able to bring tears at a moment's notice.  The "joy of being" in all its complexity and simplicity is a paradox to be celebrated.

La Cueca… cool Chilean beat! Inspired by Los Jaivas… expat Chilean band that moved to Paris, France during the Allende regime… I lived in Santiago, Chile from 11-13…beautiful country, beautiful people! … just moving this back from my K2 and the Four page! My favorite album by Los Jaivas is @ Aconcagua, circa 1982! Hope you dig this ( again, ha!)😎
