Siobhan Dakay Remixes

The Selkie's Daughter - a Christmas Story for Children and their parents and their parents parents.
Isn't the "grass always greener on the other side"? Have you ever felt lonely? Have you thought about all consequences before making a decision. Where is your home? 
This Christmas story is about growing up. About forbidden thrill. About waking up from an illusion. 
A mythical story of a mermaid alone in the ocean and her dream to go on land. 

The Selkies's daughter will be available on Spotify, iTunes, Amazon

Selkie's Daughter is on hard ground for the first time ever. Seeing land, walking through the snow and looking into the windows of the houses to see the seasonal lights everywhere.

Famous Last Words

Calling Sister Midnight - Famous Last Words (feat. Jurgen Joarder)

Worked on the mix a bit further. More dirt and noises....

The words:

The American dream has become a nightmare
Did you happen to notice
Nobody who’s fair and nobody who’s smart
would want to be the potus

And who can blame them
What’s the point
of trying to please every nutjob

The unfortunate fall-out
from this apathetic mess
is that narcissistic liars
can compete to be the best

How can there be a best
when there isn’t even a good
I’ve never seen these people
in my neighborhood

Just where do they come from
these privileged elites
and how does that qualify them
to care about the streets

They tell you they do
but don’t believe them for a minute
Power and greed
is the only reason they’re in it
If I have to hear more
I may need a prescription
They lie like they breathe
It’s their job description

So basically yes
we must fend for ourselves
while they spend all our money
on ‘defense’ and themselves

And members of congress
My god have you seen um
I don’t think they could muster
a scruple between um

They do what they’re paid to
by pharma and oil
and anyone else
who don’t care what they spoil

as long as their riches
continue to grow
they’ll lie and they’ll cheat
and they’ll keep up the show

and people like me
who care and can think
are unfortunately outnumbered
by the mentally weak

being led in their thoughts
by their masterful liar
doesn’t bode well for mankind
let’s hope there is something higher

Wake up wake up
from the American dream
There’s bombing to do
and hard drives to clean

Wake up wake up
from the American dream
Eat your Post Toastees
and take Thorazine

Wake up wake up
from the American dream
Step out of your jammies
and into the machine

Wake up wake up
from the American dream
Pull a lever for the hell of it
There’s no golden mean

Lyris (by Susan Joseph):

The Quiet Hours

There’s a tall man on the shore
There’s a shallow wind
A few tracks in the damp sand
They’re easy — lighter than a child

Step by step, stone by stone
Are you searching for ancient treasure
A singing seagull on a cliff
A song without reason

Never ever have you found
No one knows what you are searching for
Are you searching for the hours falsley deducted from the account of your life
The quiet, a gentle wind
Your search seems so vain
Your days are so loud

One day, the wind and the empty beach
A seagull sails high above your head
On the last day you found in the sand the sense of it all
It’s been the quiet hours

Never ever have you found
No one knows what you are searching for
Are you searching for the hours falsley deducted from the account of your life
The quiet, a gentle wind
Your search seems so vain
Your days are so loud

The Quiet Hours

Susan Joseph - The Quite Hours (Piano Version)

Thanks to Claudia Fenslau from @JohnlovesJulie for writing the lyrics and singing this song.

Snowflake, little snowflake
I've been waiting so long
Keep floating my snowflake
It's a long way from home

I see you through the window
I feel you on my skin
You are covering flowers
And caressing the sea

The snowman is smiling
Children are happy
Snowflake, little snowflake
Fly and dance with me

Snowflake, little snowflake
I've been waiting so long
Keep floating my snowflake
It's a long way from home

Snowflake, little snowflake
Frozen is the sea
Warm up the hearts
Of the people who love thee

Mmmmh my snowflake
I've been waiting
Waiting so long
Keep floating
It's a long way from home
from home

Snowflake, Little Snowflake

Moira Waugh sang this christmas carol a while ago for www.thinkrootsrecords.com.
When I was still @keytronic_cc I mixed it. Now I revisited the track and worked to make it more hypnotic and aligned with the lyrics.
King Herold was to take the kids and kill them. This can be spun in every which way. Taking a childhood is not always is connected to killing. Slaughtery can happen on a lot of different ways. Slaughter the soul is one of these ways.
