Very cool guitar melody, it's the spirit of this track

Something of Coil in it with this almost medieval melody. Very nice.

Nice interplay of the guitar lines, the clean and dirty living in harmony.

The Persistence Of Forgetting has entered the @re-ex Best of the Rest chart at no.6 - wonderfully immersive, I'm transfixed! Beautiful layering & textures, great work :)

So much going on in this one.... It's s a great trip.....🤘✌️👊

Watching the faded smiles
See these actors walking asleep
Like lifeboats stranded on the ocean
Floating alone

But down here in the dark
In this theatre of the cold and alone
No more hidden scars
Step out of the wings
Into the unknown

Look in my eyes
See how they shine bright
Watching our dreams take flight
As we sparkle and shine

Searching these darkened streets
For some trace of meaning
Lifeboats on the ocean
Tracing footsteps back home

But down here in the dark
In this theatre of the cold and alone
No more hidden scars
Step out of the wings
Into the unknown

Look in my eyes
See how they shine bright
Watching our dreams take flight
As we sparkle and shine

This began as part of a jam with XAW on the ambient drone rhythm guitar and SA on melody guitar. SA added a backing melody guitar track, silver flute and gongs rolled over each other, then arranged, mix/mastered, produced.

The title references the Dali painting, The Persistence of Memory.

The Persistence of Forgetting

The Persistence Of Forgetting

"In Italia una droga per essere definita tale dev'essere censita nell'elenco delle molecole illegali del Ministero della Salute. Cocaina, eroina, anfetamina, metadone, ecstasy e più o meno altre 200 molecole fanno parte di quell'elenco. Se una molecola non è in quella tabella allora la puoi produrre, la puoi assumere, ma soprattutto la puoi vendere. A 24 anni mi sono laureato in neurobiologia con il massimo dei voti, ho un master in neuroscienze computazionali e uno in dinamica molecolare. Negli ultimi mesi ho messo su una banda che gestisce un giro d'affari di centinaia di migliaia di euro, sono accusato di produzione e spaccio di stupefacenti, rapina a mano armata, sequestro di persona e tentato omicidio. Mi chiamo Pietro Zinni... e sono un ricercatore universitario."
 This is what the main character professor Pietro Zinni says in the very beginning of the film "Smetto quando voglio".

From 8000 Miles’ 2nd album Crystal Confetti comes another tune that gets a bit philosophical. How often does your first response to a situation cause you to feel that your opinion is being challenged? Yeah, it can be often. Everyone has their own take on things and that can cause uncomfortable feelings between people. So, consider in those times, when it might be appropriate to not claim that you are “right”. Let it go. Compromise. Choose peace. After all, being right is usually just an opinion. Yes? Think: I don’t have to be right.

As you may notice, the cover art harkens back to a familiar cover from 1973 and that is intentional, because Andrea and Rebecca are strongly influenced by music from that time period. Many fans of 8000 Miles’ first album, Aggregate, have remarked on that influence. The title Crystal Confetti represents the clarity 8000 Miles is honing in their duo’s style and the contrast of weighted moods and flying inspirations.

The entire album, Crystal Confetti, has been released on Bandcamp. Go to https://8000miles.bandcamp.com to check it out and follow 8000 Miles on Bandcamp to get first notices of new releases.

Christmas Time is Here [Vince Guaraldi cover]

Sunrise Over The Ocean At Yzterfontein was recorded using only the piano. The piece was inspired by personal life experiences on the West Coast of South Africa. Yzterfontein is now developed but back in the 1980's it was very different. Very few people, beautifully quiet and serene life along the coast with beautiful sunsets and sunrises. Enjoy the piano and keep an eye out for the video on Youtube.

If only we were all traversing salesmen.
