X
Music by Overdrive & Smilex
Master by Chris Schlue

This is my reinterpretation/remix of the song X by the awesome English band Smilex. The initial plan was to produce something industrial/cyberpunk, but I was seduced by the idea of making a rockabilly version of X, with hints of punk rock.

Huge thanks to Lee (lead singer), who kindly offered me the invitation to do a remix of the song -- he's probably regretting it by now, but it's too late, man. 😄

Boasting an ear splitting career spanning over a decade, Smilex are the band who have done it all. Several releases on Quickfix Recordings (who discovered Youthmovies) and spots on various compilations & singles clubs, including a split ep with The Young Knives & a collaboration with MC Lars, have made Smilex a band renowned within their native Oxford. Explosive live shows – betraying a tendency for reckless self-endangerment coupled with a drive to put the audience's experience above all else – have led local music bible Nightshift to dub Smilex “Oxford's one band Riot”. Infamous live antics have caught the eyes and ears of musical types across the country, earning them the title of Playmusic's “best unsigned live act of 2010”, whilst securing slots playing beneath (and raising the bar for) the likes of The Damned, The Datsuns, and The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster.

I recommend checking out Smilex's great tracks on their Soundcloud page:

Once again, Chris Schlue has done a wonderful job mastering the track. Check out Chris's excellent music production on his Soundcloud page:

Rocking Gnossienne’25 (feat. Gary Hayward) breathes new life into the original instrumental released back in 2021.
This 2025 edition spins the familiar melodies into a fresh lyrical dimension — with words penned and passionately performed by the talented Australian artist Gary Hayward (@gary-hayward-volt-edge).
An atmospheric fusion where Satie meets guitars, and poetry finds its rhythm.

Rocking Gnossienne'25 (feat. Gary Hayward)

Lyrics and composition, guitar and vocals by Joliz

July 2024

Paradox of Hope

Even a desert is cold at night.
Even a cyclone is calm inside.
Even two parallels meet one time.
More than a million points form a line.

So keep your hope in the darkest of times.
Be aware that the sun always shines,
even if he's on the other side,
even if he often tends to hide.

Even Schroedinger's cat's still alive,
if you don't look too closely inside.
Even a monkey can write "Faust II",
if he gives it an infinite try.

So keep your hope in the darkest of times.
Be aware that the sun always shines,
even if he's on the other side,
even if he often tends to hide.

Paradox of Hope

SneakPreview for the coming live Set, praise the Omnissiah!

WE LUV CHAOS
Music by Overdrive, Chris Schlue & Leandro Bastos

This is a typical early 80s punk rock song, but with a modern twist. Chris Schlue's cutting rhythm guitars add an aggressive edge to the futuristic drum'n bass foundation. And this unlikely musical backdrop provides the perfect setting for Leandro Bastos' incredible vocals.

LEANDRO BASTOS
Leandro Bastos is a Brazilian singer, songwriter, guitarist, producer, and enthusiast of the rock genre (metal, hard rock, melodic, progressive, alternative, acoustic, etc.). He has been playing and recording with rock and metal bands for the past 20 years. I am a fan of his work and enthusiastically recommend visiting his pages on Fiverr and Instagram;

CHRIS SCHLUE
German musician Chris Schule's spectacular technical work in mastering songs is only overshadowed by his brilliance as a guitarist and music producer, both in his solo work and in the various bands he plays in. Check out Chris's great tracks on his Soundcloud page:

Hope you like the song.

We Luv Chaos

single released 02/05/2025. It's a remix by Silvr Sage of my track Supersonic drive.

Supersonic Drive (Silvr Sage Remix)

FM / XM

A huge thanks to Barricage for their massive contriution to the track, it wouldn't sound anywhere near as good as it does without them. 

Lyrics : 
(intro)
Time to scalp the Balds
I love it when they die
(v1)
Welcome to the party where we celebrate
The beauty we steal from the people we hate 
We all disagree yet we never debate
We just have to believe and be in one kind of state

We all look alike and we all dress the same
This all happened before, yet we march unashamed
We know we'll self-destruct when it's all said and done
But we hate colour so much that we'll blow up the sun

(ch)
Yeah
How is this happening again (x3)

Thousand year party that only lasted ten 
False place their bets on mistakes of the dead
Living and breathing these skulls fear for their land 
Livid, they scream 'gainst what's only in their heads

(v2)
Strength over weakness
Us versus them
No self-awareness
Just self-defense

Back to the good days
Just not sure when
Days where the good hate
Could still make us friends
(Lex guitar solo)
Srength over weakness
Paint over shit
Cope can't redeem us
Nothing wrong with what we did

Hate over facts
Date over chat
Rape over castration
Murder over protection

(ch)

Rage Party (w Barricage)

This is about going back to my childhood years and having fond memories of growing up. When life was simple and carefree. This also relates to my teenage and early 20" s times when there was a time of exploring and having adventures.
Special thanks to Pixabay for the background effects.

Years Gone By

Something about the Fun in LA in 2025
warning: this is a work of fiction
the 'pallet of bricks thing' was debunked 5 yrs ago : my unreliable narrator is something of a wiener.  Take that how you will :)
Kind of like the warning at the start of 1955 Richard III with Olivier that he wasn't really a hunchback...etc
  Also the head of that store's probably the greatest cinnamon roll of a human and the gf's kid is a little demon that knocks inventory over...

Lyrics:

Community is mutually exchanged inconveniences
For the promise of magistrates' leniency

My double-major paramour was lading bread with jelly
On a shift at Canter's Deli
While we discussed the latest brigandage
And dropped some gems of knowledge

My devastating heartthrob said
That the greatest software efficiency steal
Is to hire a cheap intern whose whole job
Is to be a hater and keep it real

And stated with a leer
While discussing her change of career

That the difference between making a sandwich
And mooting relativistic magnetohydrodynamics
Is that one of the which carries
Significantly less risk
Of irreversible brain damage

My spiritual talent
Is making people i like angry at me

As we surveyed the city's commotion
She wondered why the populace
Gets into these fights
I said not to be a dick
But hit a beehive with a stick
And you will discover that 
Bees have a robust notion of property rights

When the mood of the NGO's gets really really shitty
They queue up the pallets of bricks randomly sitting round the city

For better or worse
A border is a line between personal investment
And the rest of the Universe

We later hit the Chef's paradise
For restauranting provender
As we were sauntering between the lavender and allspice
The owner's prompting wasn't very nice 
Please do keep your crotch fruit madam away from the merchandise 

The best exaction
We derived from this civic distraction
As we continued our drive
Was being able to say
It's a great beach day west of the 405

I'll Have A Coyotaje Knish And Hold The Mustard

Now is the Only Thing that is Real

There was a lot of emotion in me that needed to come out.  I could either cry or write music.  So I did both - at the same time -  and this was the result.
Thank you for listening to this.  I really appreciate it so much!

blues reign

Seaside

the coldness of a cactus hides a joy, the warmth of a life can be sad

Endless joy

A simple message to myself from way back.  Found it almost like a message in a bottle. It said , relax , let go, live .... you are working and maybe even dreaming too hard.  Then slowly the message ....Connect .... seemed almost like a new mood elevating pill you could buy at a drug store.... and the song was not only advice from a future me, but quite possibly a tv commercial for a new drug called .... CONNECT.

Connect
