Purify My Soul

Old Time Town

Old Time Town (Thunder Remaster)

A hypnotic, funky composition full of smooth, fine wine vocals, engaging lyrics, harmonic chorus and metro cool beats, bass and dreamy instrumentals. 'Turning Me Upside Down' immerses the listener in a surreal sea of weightlessness as you float through the entire piece to its finish,  finally waking up from this very cool experience. It wafts on a summer breeze,  reminiscent of beach holidays.

Turning Me Upside Down

A joyful yet mischievous glance at hugging as a social phenomenon.

The Hug (feat. Charlotte Neal) [Ed Lucas remix]

The Hug (Ed Lucas Remix)

From Dom Reynolds & Jozef Birling's debut album, Change The Plan.

Welcome to the world of mysteries and spies! With the use of some haunting guitar chords reminiscent of the classic James Bond movie theme, being then contrasted with an uplifting chorus, this song juxtaposes the dark and light that can be seen in the world of intelligence. Inspired by the book of Gordon Thomas, “Inside British Intelligence”. 

Jozef Birling:
 “When reading through the first pages of Thomas’ book, it sketched in my mind a very cinematic picture of the MI5 or MI6 boss sitting behind a computer at Admiral Nelson’s desk, checking and orchestrating all the chess pieces in the spy game; ultimately helping us all in the fight for preserving our freedom. It would be a curious fact and destiny in a way that it would be that desk that used to be on the Victory ship during the time of its dangerous but victorious endeavours at sea against the French. Of course, is the desk really there? It may also be just a rumour and not be true at all. Welcome to the world of mysteries and spies!“

FM AM (Spymaster)

Celestial

From Dom Reynolds & Jozef Birling's debut album, Change The Plan.

The song weaves different guitar parts into one jazz-rock theme and is about the struggle for truth and keeping ones saneness in a world of information and disinformation overload. 

Jozef Birling: 
“The internet has brought us immense opportunity to discover and learn new things, but is at the same time also bringing challenges with it because you may no longer know what is true and what isn’t. It has in particular led to an increased distrust of our traditional institutions, politics, and the media. I double dare people, especially the young, to find truth and love within their community outside of the internet.”

Double Daring

One Tribe

Janine The Atomic Girl

Dom Reynolds & Jozef Birling's debut album, Change The Plan.

A song about the Earth and a Human in a conversation, but talking quite a bit without really listening to each other, and thus perhaps not really understanding each other that well. 

Jozef Birling: 
“For a while this song remained unfinished, as I struggled to find the right words to express the despair that the human character in this song would feel. It was only after Dom provided the rap lyrics that it started to make full sense to me. It was the first song of our renewed collaboration and we also felt it represented the main themes of our first album very well, hence it became the title track.”

Change The Plan

From Dom Reynolds & Jozef Birling's debut album, Change The Plan.

This song is reminiscent of the digital pop-rock of the 1980s.

Dom Reynolds:
"Written during the COVID-19 lockdown, it imagines a family being lost in the Gobi desert, and finding shelter in cave, on a stair of the Rainbow Mountains of Zhangye.

Inspired by scenes from the film, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and the novel, The Long Walk, by Slavomir Rawicz."

If You Had a Gun

This is a funky, up-beat number which tells the story of a couple who meet at a bus-stop, but who are bound in opposite directions. The light of love turns on ... will they change their destination?

Dom: "This is a song about a memory of separation, of love's promise unfulfilled. It is brimming with emotion, and almost guaranteed to make you cry. It touches the listener, makes us feel that we are not alone in having felt this way, this failure to connect to somebody with mere words, this loss, and ultimately this regret."

From the forthcoming album, Love and Pain.
Vocals and Piano: Domo Reynolds
Guitar: Jozef Birling

LYRICS
Maybe I worked out you were leaving me,
When I noticed your new bank account.
And it wasn’t even ‘bout the money,
And I pay no mind to the amount.

I bought you flowers and things,
I even bought you diamond rings.
You said I don’t notice you,
But that’s not true.
  
‘Cause it’s real.
You’ll never know, 
How much I love you,
Though it’s not a secret,
There no words.
I said you’ll never know
How much I care about you, baby,
I can only feel it.

When you said you wished to drive into the sea,
Off that jetty in the harbour,
I made up my mind to walk into the sea,
Just so I could join you there.

I felt the power inside,
A yearning to be free,
Can you see it babe?

‘Cause it’s real, 
You’ll never know, 
How much really I love you, love you, love you, love you, love you,
It’s not a secret,
There no words.
I said you’ll never know
How much I care about you baby,
I can only feel.

You'll Never Know

This is a piano-based song, with plaintive vocals and a funky rhythm with orchestral accompaniment.

Composers: Siôn Dominic Reynolds & Patrick Jozef Nicole Beullens
Vocals and Keys: Dom Reynolds
Production: Jozef Birling

LYRICS:
Been so long now I been a ball of pain
Stuck outside in the pouring rain
Since I met you been born again.
As you’re leaving, I don’t know when,
I feel empty inside,
A thousand miles wide.
Will you come back?
Or run and hide?

Seasons come, and seasons go,
Where the time goes, I just don’t know.
When will I harvest the seeds I sow?
I feel high then I feel low.
I ain’t looking nowhere, 
With a thousand yard stare,
But I can just imagine that you are there.

Oh, I been a ball of pain
Oh, I been a ball of pain.

Been so long now I been a ball of pain
Stuck outside in the pouring rain
Since I met you been born again.
And you’re leaving, I don’t know when,
I can’t turn back the tide,
Lord knows how I’ve tried.
Will you come back?
Or run and hide?

Ball of Pain

Ball Of Pain

A Love Rock!  reggae love song

LYRICS:
People say that I’m crazy not giving up on you,
And people say that I’m lazy not doin’ the things they do,
But when you look at me I know I cannot hide
And I’ll wait and I’ll wait, accept my fate,
‘Cause there’s a love that’s deep inside.

I feel it in my bones.
I feel it in my bones.

When the sun is setting here , it’s rising where you are.
But the sun is just concealing our lonely guiding star.
Since you went away I’ve lost my inner light,
But I can wait, I can sit tight,
No need to take flight, you’re out of sight,
But your love is deep inside.

I feel it in my bones.
I feel it in my bones.

‘Cause there’s a love that’s deep inside

In my bones. 
In my bones.

I feel it in my bones.
I feel it in my bones.
I feel it in my bones.
I feel it in my bones.

Dapa hippie dap un dap un day.



In My Bones

My name is Dom Reynolds and I'm a singer-songwriter, musician, audio-engineer, actor and educator.

I am currently writing and recording with Belgium-born musician Jozef Birling. Having played together formerly in a group called Infra Red during the late ‘noughties’, we reconvened in the 2020s by jamming and then preparing a set of covers for live street performance.  Once we discovered that we have similar musical and artistic tastes, and that our original songs fitted well together, we created an album of newly-penned songs in an eclectic but rootsy style. The album is entitled Change the Plan, and is available for streaming or for purchase at domreynolds.com and Bandcamp.  Our next album, Roast Dinner Drive, came out in the summer of 2023. 

Excitingly, we also have an exciting new album in preparation -with a working title Love and Pain- scheduled for release in 2024. Since January we have been releasing a single from the album every six weeks, and will continue doing so until the album is released in the autumn, and beyond. This means you can get a regular fix of our new music! We are also planning some studio-recorded cover versions of songs by such legends as The Beach Boys and The Doors!

We have recently been joined by B Just (desperateBeauty), who is playing drums and percussion for the band for their live shows, Ethan on bass and Alex on backing vocals and acoustic guitar. The band is called  Dom Reynolds Derelicts.
