For Alejo

Lotus ((vv))

Can survive in a hostile environment.
Rarely opens itself to others.

"Lotus" was our main release from last year. This is a concept album about disease as a transformation agent. Musically, this is a psychedelic journey that covers Stoner, Far East, Cante Jondo, Freak Folk, European psychedelia and Krautrock.

You can get this EP on Bandcamp for less than the price of a coffee. All proceedings go to support other underground acts.

Verse Lyrics by Joey Cape

Lyrics:

Would it make you feel much better
If it was you against the world? 
If you were an alien?👽🛸👾
If it were conspiracy?
And would it hurt to live in comfort
If you found someone to trust?
If you knew that you were with us?
If we shared a common goal?

We
We went our way
We went our way
We walked way

Not This Time

This is another tune I worked on last week when I was kidnapped, er, when I collaborated with Josh and his band of maniacal musicians.    These guys GIT R DUN I tell you . This one evolved lots just in the few days we worked it up.  
This is June Bug

The Spanish Inquisition.

This song took longer to finish than I thought when I started. It is difficult to get the frequencies right so that all the sounds don't flow together into a mush. A good sound engineer knows the tricks we amateurs tear our hair out over.

As usual, I use Reason:
https://reasonstudios.com/
Samples are from bundled refills.
Massive use of Polar, dual pitch shifter and Synchronous, Timed effect modulator.

Primary synth is Pigments from Arturia:

Some mean sounds are made with Synclavier V from Arturia.

A little bass from Blamsoft, VK-2.

Is anyone still out there?
Well hello there if you are taking some of your valuable time to read this! As the lyrics to this (probably)final song say, its been a long while……
The last time I checked into Soundcloud was maybe last December, wow…. 
I packed up for a holiday in Hawaii, ran the Honolulu Marathon, watched a volcano erupt, cast my dog’s ashes into a lava field and drank a tropical island's worth of cocktails while watching the sunset with my wife. And then returned a few weeks later decidedly unenthused about the Cat and my collaborator.
Gina had been making noises about returning to an on again / off again musical partner. That wasn’t unexpected and was actually a bit of a relief as I hadn’t been enjoying this for a while. Our last few songs had been tortuous to finish, including this one which was finally finished I think way back in October 2022.
Cat Came Back was always a lot like an arranged marriage - nothing at all in common but we kind of made it work 3 minutes at a time. But by late last year, it had become very hard work. And as you fellow Soundclouders know, outside of personal satisfaction, the rewards for all of that hard work are not very large. So, if the personal satisfaction is gone, there’s not a lot left to motivate oneself. 
In addition to that, there were a few rather large elephants in the room regarding my collaborator that I won't go into but nevertheless constantly weighed very heavily on my mind throughout our time together and I was finding these increasingly difficult to continue to ignore for the sake of making music together.
So anyway, when I returned a perhaps brief hiatus accidentally turned into this - silence for what, 7-8 months? Haven’t picked up an instrument in all that time and they currently sit in my garage gathering dust. Took up Chess, what a rabbit hole that is! Continued running. Listening as always to a lot of old jazz. Continued seemingly never ending renovations to my house. Spent a lot of time with my lifelong friend, William Styron’s Black Dog, as a matter of fact he's here sitting right by my side now. 
So what now? I sat down a few days back and listened to a few things that were unfinished as of late last year. Maybe its time to start again. Find a new collaborator or two? Anyone know anyone who might be a match?
In the meantime I’ll dip my toe in and check out what some of my favourite Soundclouders have been up to while I was away. I'm sure I've missed out on some really great stuff.

Minor Exotica (Turned To Black)

Enter the mesmerising world of "Mantodea," a musical journey that delves into a future concept of the female species metamorphosing into a captivating Praying Mantis hybrid. In this enthralling narrative, we explore the evolutionary phenomenon where these ethereal beings transcend the boundaries of mere mortals, embracing a newfound prowess, and a captivatingly mysterious existence.

Allow yourself to immerse in the hauntingly harmonies, embodying the strength and grace of the evolved Mantodea. The music's dynamic interplay symbolises the complex dance between these enchanting beings and their male counterparts.
(Thanks Chat GPT !!)

Thank you for lending me your ear and if you like the sunflowers don't forget to repost, like and follow.

#197 Whereabouts Unknown Part !

It's a cops n robbers story.  This is a longer story so this ong includes the first half. We plan to come back to it some time for, as Paul Harvey used to say, "The Rest Of The Story"  Hope you like it! 

Lyrics;
  Put the foot On the floor
Picks it up goes Out the door
Gets away In the car
Drives all day travels far

He hides the face
Finds the place
Stays alone
Looses the phone
He's doing his own time
For his perfect crime
Whereabouts unknown

Temptation is a mighty sin
And someone's out to turn him in
A little bee inside in the hive
But honey's good for nothing 
if you don't come out alive

Put the foot On the floor
He gets the call Out the door
Got the badge Got the gun
He'll fnd the guy that's on the run

Hit the street
Be discrete 
Using tact
He gets the facts 
Bad guy gotta do the time
For committing the crime
His whereabouts unknown

Temptation is a mighty sin
Hands over fists of greedy men
With Intimidation and sound advice
And the Information sells 
at a discount price
The fox had thrown em off the trail
But there's a hound dog on his tail

Will he escape or go to jail
Somebody's gonna fail
Have you seen this man?
Do you recognize this man?
We're searching for this man...

Whereabouts unknown

Whereabouts Unknown Part !

I know that the ukulele is often ridiculed, but exactly this naivety of the instrument suits me. As a child of the No Future generation, this naivety is the only thing that gives me a spark of hope for a better world…
Love and peace to everyone! Thank you for listening.
