Staring at the Crossroads (Original by Ben Buttrick)

This was written in South Africa in 1987, a few years before the release of Nelson Mandela - really digging into the archives here! It was one of a handful of songs co-written with Pravinand (@johnny-minstrel). I had the first verse and an inkling of a melody, and Pravinand finished it off. We were very chuffed by the end result. Hope you like it.

The Prisoner (Peters/Maharaj)

The empty space he feared
Was fixed between his ears
To live is but to bear
The scourge of twilight years
He lost the strength to fight
He lost the will to live
For all that was his right
They took away from him

He cannot move his arms
The iron weighs him down
His feet, they cannot dance
He feels no joyful sound
He alone must grieve
The toll of passing years
He alone must feel
The loneliness and fears

His eyes reflect the pain
A man should never bear
How long will he sustain
To hurt for what is fair
And in the dark he prays
No one hears his heart
Except the one who made
Man from dust and blood

The Prisoner

Stonerjazz, Uziel, and me have joined forces once again for another adventure in our fantastical concept album universe 'the land of Zed'! This time we are also joined by a new collaborator, Zed a.k.a. Francesca from Italy. It is just coincidence/synchronicity that her name is the same as the title of this series, but after crossing paths on soundcloud and listening to her music, we thought she would be a good fit!

The lyrics for this one pick up on a thread of the story that we left hanging at the end of episode 2, 'Johnny and the Holy Din' ... but there are call-backs to nearly all the other songs in the series too if you listen closely.

Check out the whole story (so far) here: soundcloud.com/tea_are_sea/sets/land-of-the-zed

Lyrics:

Through some inexplicable and somewhat puzzling magical circummstance beyond understanding as we know it; an opening opened amongst the craigs and mists and the protruberances high in the mountains of southern Zed.. And out of the dank and dark and stink of the stank stepped a warrior so fine with a golden accordian that did shine like the sun.

And the musicians all trapped in the sky screamed and they cried for they had lost all their hope and their mojo was gone and they were prepared to die. They were prepared to die..

So Johnny sat down on the ledge in front of the cave so incredibly brave with legs dangling in space and began to play a tune so sweets that even the red parrots and monkeys started to cry, and Roy the despicable despot was Shaken to his shoes and said: 

"Hey Johnny, can you play me some Blues??"

All of Zed did head for the byways that led to the mountains that day.. The Azzure eyed twits and all of their brats, the crows in their leathers with beads in their feathers, the Rats in their custom made chevys from mars. Though sadly the Trout had to stay but needless to say, there was a grand party that day when twenty two hundred entered that cave with visions of home, songs in their brains, and hopes in their hearts...And No one suspected the Evil that lay deep in the guts of the southern mountains of Zed..

Zeiten wie diese

this track is kind of dedicated to Bill Mead, because it is inpirated (and carried) by some of his (free) drum loops, he calls: earthloops “moss”. I hope I do justice to the drums, any weirdness in rhythm is my responsibility :-) Well, Danmoi and flute is my real time improvisation, each in one go. additionally there's a sparse addition of a drum vst & a bass wobble. Enjoy ! ... and don't hesitate to visite organicdrumloops.com ... I love this page !!! ..... photo by Tuce, on unsplash

Love Returned
Bayard Taylor

He was a boy when first we met; 
     His eyes were mixed of dew and fire, 
And on his candid brow was set 
     The sweetness of a chaste desire: 
But in his veins the pulses beat 
     Of passion, waiting for its wing, 
As ardent veins of summer heat 
     Throb through the innocence of spring.

As manhood came, his stature grew, 
     And fiercer burned his restless eyes, 
Until I trembled, as he drew 
     From wedded hearts their young disguise. 
Like wind-fed flame his ardor rose, 
     And brought, like flame, a stormy rain: 
In tumult, sweeter than repose, 
     He tossed the souls of joy and pain.

So many years of absence change! 
     I knew him not when he returned: 
His step was slow, his brow was strange, 
     His quiet eye no longer burned. 
When at my heart I heard his knock, 
     No voice within his right confessed: 
I could not venture to unlock 
     Its chambers to an alien guest.

Then, at the threshold, spent and worn 
     With fruitless travel, down he lay: 
And I beheld the gleams of morn 
     On his reviving beauty play. 
I knelt, and kissed his holy lips, 
     I washed his feet with pious care; 
And from my life the long eclipse 
     Drew off; and left his sunshine there.

He burns no more with youthful fire; 
     He melts no more in foolish tears; 
Serene and sweet, his eyes inspire 
     The steady faith of balanced years. 
His folded wings no longer thrill, 
     But in some peaceful flight of prayer: 
He nestles in my heart so still, 
     I scarcely feel his presence there.

O Love, that stern probation o'er, 
     Thy calmer blessing is secure! 
Thy beauteous feet shall stray no more, 
     Thy peace and patience shall endure! 
The lightest wind deflowers the rose, 
     The rainbow with the sun departs, 
But thou art centred in repose, 
     And rooted in my heart of hearts!

“Pure Love Skankin’” is a musical journey that celebrates the energy of love, rhythm, and unity. The original mix flows like a story in three acts — opening with the hypnotic pulse of Amapiano, sliding into a roots reggae heartbeat, and closing with the fire of dancehall. The sound is warm, organic, and full of uplifting vibrations, designed to move both heart and body.

The Club Mix takes the same foundation and turns up the energy, adding heavier percussion, extended drops, and layered grooves built for the dancefloor. It keeps the soulful core of the original while transforming the track into a late-night anthem.

Together, both versions deliver a full spectrum experience — from conscious vibes to pure dance energy — ensuring “Pure Love Skankin’” resonates wherever the music plays.
