EXPLORERS

================================

Hi everyone.

After three weeks sick, he seems to be starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel (That's what we say in Spain...).

My precious kidney stones have prevented me from focusing on songwriting and my commitments to some friends here, and will continue to do so for a while...

But my spirit regains energy and that's why I leave you here a composition from almost 8 years ago that I don't remember having published before.

It is one of the most complex electronic parts ever made.

It's true that I remastered it a few years later in my second mixing studio......yes, in my second car with BT.

I hope you like it, while I hope to expel two of my beloved stones from the four I have had since the last month.

Greetings.

Paco. ; )

Explorers

While we wait for BARDS: Of The Shimmering Seraphs to finish physical production, in the meantime we are forging ahead with a new crop of songs for the next album. The next album will serve as a continuation of the oracle deck concept, featuring songs about "objects" - the first of which be this little song about the magical horn of the elusive and beautiful Aardvark Girl. It is also about a recently discovered strange dwarf planet at the farthest reaches of our solar system.

Gǃkúnǁʼhòmdímà  was discovered on 19 Oct 2007 at the Palomar observatory in California, at 9:09 UT. Gkunhomdima is a member of the extended scattered disc and is a trans-Neptunian object (TNO). Its orbit is inclined 23° off the ecliptic and is quite elliptical. It was knocked out of a normal orbit early in the history of the solar system, probably as Neptune migrated outward to its current position, which gives the high  inclination of Gkunhomdima’s orbit. However, there is no known orbital resonance with any other planetary body, except for its binary companion. Its ‘moon’, or secondary is called G!o’e !Hu (pronounced GOH ay KOO). Goeku means ‘horn’, or Oryx horn. And that takes us to a bit of mythology.

Gǃkúnǁʼhòmdímà is also the Beautiful Aardvark Girl of Juǀʼhoan mythology, who sometimes appears in the stories of other San peoples as a python girl or elephant girl; she defends her people and punishes wrongdoers using gǁámígǁàmì spines [devil’s thorn plant], a rain-cloud full of hail, and her magical oryx horn.

LYRICS:
-------------------------------
Aardvark girl, come trumpet your horn
Bellow your clarion call
Summon your dark and impenetrable cloud
And let your hailstones fall

Are we just ants crawling around on the ground
Are we just termites in a crumbling mound

Scatter the poisoned thorns in their lane
May they tread upon those in their path
The stinging in their feet shall remind them
They’ll be dead before their next bath

Aardvark girl burrow down in your den
The night will be ending soon
The Oryx are gathered at the watering hole
And your face is in the moon

Are we just ants crawling around on the ground
Are we just termites in a crumbling mound
We are just ants crawling around on the ground
We are just termites in a crumbling mound

The Oryx of the Aardvark Girl

Open the door in the mornin'
Just to check out the weather
what should you wear as you're ridin'
alone in your car...

Because if the sun isn't shining
bright in your mirror
that doesn't mean that it won't stop
raining this hard

And it's a 50-50 chance that
it'll come out tomorrow
Cause tomorrow's just a roll of the dice
tonight...

Gettin' home after drivin'
through the city in rush hour
toss the keep on the table
and hang up your coat

And she pulls up just after 
you walk in the house 
How was your day what ya thinking
we should eat tonight?

(x2) And it's a 50-50 chance that
you're gettin' lucky
cause tonight is just a roll of the dice, 

alright...

Now we can breath in together
and exhale slowly
we're gonna go home tomorrow
win or lose

But we both knew that no matter
just keep on fighting
and we pick up each other
when we are down

(x2) And it's a 50 - 50 life that
we are living 
and the only way to get through alive

is fight...

guitar solo

And as we let go of this whole 
idea that we have 
Gettin' ahead of the better
half of the town

We should remember to focus
on what is important
So when you get to the end you
don't have any regrets

IT’S TIME FOR A BREAK
A WARM HAND-SHAKE
A KISS AND  MAYBE MORE

HAVE A PIECE OF CAKE
DON’T JUMP INTO THE LAKE
MAKE LOVE AND NOT WAR

so they said

THAT’S WHAT I BELIE-IEVE
THAT’S WHAT I GO FOR

A LAND OF A DREAM
WITH NO GOLD LIMOUSINE
BUT A MAGIC BEAN ON TOP 

A LAND WHERE IT SEEMS
TIME IS A TIME MACHINE
AND THE WEASEL GOES POP

THAT’S WHERE I BELONG
THAT’S WHERE I LONG FOR

IT’S TIME FOR A WALK
A PEACEFUL TALK
A POW WOW BY THE FIRE
IN A CIRCLE OF CHALK
LET’S GO UP IN SMOKE
BACK TO FLOWER POWER

THAT’S WHERE I AM HEADING TO
AND THEN TALK NO MORE

NO MORE TALK
LET’S HAVE A POW WOW
LET’S HAVE A POW WOW

POW WOW (Lyrics)

How far have i gone 
What is this road i’m on
That leads so far from home

Are you here with me now, 
Now that i need you, No, 
i lost you long ago

And I’m barely hanging on 
I need to find the way today
And darling, I miss you so
just give me a sign and lead the way

If it’s the last thing i do I’m coming home to you
back where i belong
I’ll find the way No matter what it takes
down this road so long
You don’t know what’s here till it's gone

In some other life, Or maybe a distant dream,
that i don’t quite recall
But I close my eyes, and i’m there it seems
where you and I had it all

The sound of the children play
And the dogs out in the yard  
The fragrant flowers bloom away
It all seems so near and yet so far

If It's The Last Thing I Do

In Darkness Let Me Dwell

This is an original country song that speaks to those that are far from their loved one, unable to be with them but imagining if only...they could be together. Longing for the time when they can be with each other once again.

We are very happy to once again have the wonderful pedal steel talents of Dakota Holden contribute so beautifully to this track.

Lyrics: "If You Were Here" by Daniels & Durgy

The sun came up, despite the clouds, It was enough, despite the doubts 
To thank the Lord, for one more day, To feel the freedom come my way

And wonder where you are and how, You’re doing at this moment now
To let my heart let go of fear, Imagining if you were here

If you were here, If you were here
All these dreams that we both have would become real,
I would hold onto forever, stop the hands of time together
Kiss you gently as the world disappears…If you, if you were here..

The smile on which, I so rely, A warmth so rich, I can’t deny
The touch that penetrates my soul, How much the distance takes its toll

But I take comfort in the past, That memories are not the last
That time will only make more clear, Just what would be if you were here

(chorus)

If you were here could I contain, The need for you, like sun and rain
Like wind that parts the maple leaves, As waves breathe life into the seas

If you were here there is no doubt, I’d lay a finger on your mouth
And show you as I held you near, What I would do if you were here 

I loved you then, I love you still, There is a void no one can fill, 
The only one, is always you, And no else will ever do.  
It's always been you, always will, Be you and me, forever till
The sun & stars do not appear, To light up like, if you were here

(chorus)

If You Were Here

Prodigal Son

In the dark 
I stumbled blindly
Painful lessons
without you

Empty reasons, 
Endless deceptions
They all talked
as If they knew

What they lacked 
is now apparent
What they sold 
was not the Truth

I searched blindly
in despair,
Only to find you
waiting there

[chorus]
Jesus, 
You are the Bread of Life,
who believes in You has found the light
You are the Bread of Life,
that which endures to eternal life

I hungered and 
I was thirsty,
my soul was dim, 
my heart was weak

My sins were many,
I was fallen
It’s through grace
that I’m still here

I look back, 
my chains are broken
The pain has eased,
You erased my fear

Now it all fits 
so seamlessly
Those who believe
are forever free

Lyrics
Love's Road 
There's something in the air between us, my dear.
It's a whisper that you can't, hear.
There's something in the air between us, my friend.
An agony - we can't comprehend.
.
In this space between, you and me,
Is an ache so deep, and lonely,
With a climb so steep, to get there,
The air is thin, it's suffocating, oh!
Just out of reach.
Like a memory, oh!
But the weight of this is crushing, oh!
Where do I end?
And where do you begin?
I gave you my heart, to keep,
Safe.
Safe.
You promised me!
.
Calm, calm, calm and slow.
Darken the windows.
Hope is a long road.
Time is a quick trick.
.
Calm, calm, calm and slow!
Darken the windows.
Hope is a long road.
Balancing in the thick, thick.
.
It's like, God, wrote me a poem.
-
And now I know I'm alive.
Alive.
.
It has to have a place to go!
So you MUST know.
Your face is perfectly placed -
Your face is perfectly placed -
.
On Love's Road.
.
-End-

Love's Road - Tam Jennifer (ft. J.J. Terrell on piano)

Hello everyone, 
a while ago I came across Layna's page here on Soundcloud. I was amazed by her beautiful voice. I am very happy that she agreed to my request for a collaboration. So we re-recorded the traditional "Ash Grove", which she had sung before. I gave the piece an orchestral arrangement that includes the typical Celtic instruments. In addition, there was a new intro and outro.

I am incredibly happy that I was able to work with such a wonderful singer. Thank you very much, Layna!

You can also find Layna's wonderful singing here:

Ash Grove (feat. Layna)

This one started with the cool beat and bass groove that Jeff sent over.  I tried making a cool acoustic guitar part but it just wasn't working , so I put on the crazy filter and played what you're hearing here.  Enjoy with your favorite person.

lyrics:
Hear my body scream, hear my soul is weak, i can't control anymore
i tried to set it free, i tried to tame this freak, but it's up to self control

and i will never learn and trust is hard to earn
as i lose my self again...

Bright lights calling me, neon life sets me free and i am right here to stay
The sun rise up again and i still understand the dues we have to pay
