and yeah --- Gate 138 --- phantastic piece!

the drums make me think of narada walden on led boots a little

Really adventurous sound! Gateway to an interstellar adventure where anything is possible.

Reduziert, irgendwie schon fast minimalistisch, was bei diesem Musikstück, das deutlich kürzer ist als der Beipackzettel dazu, den Fokus auf das Wesentliche richtet und diesen intensiviert. Und dieses Gefiepse, Geplucker und Getrommel häkelt sich regelrecht in mein Hirn. Da wird's wenigstens mal mit was Gescheitem gefüllt. ;o)

A bagatelle, there are bigger issues I know but flies just get my goat. On a positive note, Ghislaine's photos make them look so beautiful  (youtu.be/XUWzqxtFlX0) and I was able to slip the word 'boondoggle' into the lyric.

Shoo fly don’t bother me
Shoo fly don’t bother me
Shoo fly don’t bother me
Stop with this boondoggle 
Or there will be some trouble
With me

There’s a blow fly on my knee
A blow fly on my knee
A blow fly doing a high five 
On my knee 
Better stop with this boondoggle
Or there will be some trouble
With me

Early in the morning
I’m giving you a warning
Don’t land on my blue suede shoes
Buzzing at full throttle
You know that a blue bottle
Might have something to lose

Blow fly on my knee
Blow fly on my knee
Blow flying a high five
On my knee
Stop with this boondoggle
Or there will be some trouble
With me

Blow Fly

Always loved Peter, Paul and Mary's version of Bob Dylan's great song.

For those of you who haven't discovered Orlando "The Don" Lund, here's your opportunity.  Orlando is a serious pro, having built a career as a writer, multi instrumentalist and producer in London during the '90s Soul Funk era, leading and creating with some of the finest contemporary jazz and funk musicians in Europe.  You can hear many of their great tunes here at https://soundcloud.com/orlando-lund.  If you are into grooving music, almost no one does it better.

Orlando approached me about playing on a tune I had released here, What the Funk, quickly sending 5 tasty tracks to me - a solid grooving bass line, a congas line, two rhythm guitar tracks and a George Benson style guitar solo.  I've worked them all in here, adding them to all my keyboard parts, creating some sweet soul jazz for your listening pleasure.  Check out Orlando's wonderful Palma Groove Project recordings on his gallery - really special creations.  

We thank you as always for your generous listening time, for your comments and for your shares.

Deeper - Couch King and Russ

I think this track started 2 years ago. I remember talking about the vision with Jamie on the phone and then Jamie sent me a bunch of stems to choose from. I chose the standing bass and recorded my verse with a 90’s vibe in mind. I sent the track over to Russell to add some guitars, he sent that funk rock intro and riff back, and then I don’t know what happened after that? A bunch of other songs got made and the vision for this track expanded to include cutting my second verse and bringing Jon Lock in on vocals. Then the song sat again. Jon and I even started and completed And So You Say and Training Day after we had already got this song started. Since this track was visioned to be part of the first song on the set with Training Day, eventually it had to be completed. Wou-Wou then join in with his synths, rhythm guitar over Jon’s part, and some additional guitar over the first section. This gave the track the final fire it needed and Russell mixed and mastered it like a champ!

As always, massive thanks to Wou-Wou and Russell who have been regular collaborators on so many projects, on SoundCloud, Facebook, and Bandcamp. Wou and Russell will always be the core of my musical team. Thanks for being great friends! 
Big thanks also to Jon, who I have worked with on 3 songs now, with 2 more in the works already! 
And thanks to Jamie for all his patience, support, and for the completion of our second project together!   

This song goes out to all the music nerds, appreciators, and lovers with strong opinions. Keep those conversations going. I spent many, many years, going to the record store several times a week, hanging and talking with the staff, some who became good friends.

Lyrics 

Everything changes 
Nothing stays the same 
I used to hate it when my people would say it's a shame 
Stating that the games gone lame 
Claiming that today the music is wack 
At times I would refrain and take a step back
But most of the time I would counter attack 
Back in the day, we would say, Clever repartee 
When we were clowning around 
But now a days we taking the things a bit more serious 
Or maybe it's just me, see 
I ain't playing around as much as I used to be 
Conversations at a minimal 
It's not that I'm more critical or cynical 
It's that I am a more apathetic individual
I  just don't care 
Call me hypocritical 
I be like that's fair 
Yo
What happened to all the innovators, rhyme slayers, originality generators
You know
There really all still there
Back in the days we had to dig in the crates
Looking for the lessor known greats
I guess that's still the way it operates 
Hates a narrow minded state 
And It take effort to educate
So 
I’ma stay open and keep on diggin’ 
Vibin' on the sounds that I be hearin’ 
Yea 
And you know it's like that 
And you know and you know and you know it's like that 
Keep keep on, keep keep on
keep keep keep on

And you know it’s like that

Here comes the backup plan
The man without a name
Don’t want to be no star
Just musical acclaim 
Brush back those famous hats like children in the street
I’m gonna sing a bit while Couch King cracks the beat
Whoa baby now shake
Like momma told you now
Whoa baby now shake
Like this was made for
This is a slice of funk
USDA prime
Let it get to your head
You will feel fine
Poetry in motion
Images in time
Back beats and refined commotion 
Aged like fine wine 

Any you know it’s like that

This is my cousin, David Conover's take on the song.. Bruce

jeff tweedy’s bio tried hard to review tunes without capturing whom the song might sound like. so, in that honor here’s my attempt. 

go go go then stop slow and low cookin’ on a recently outlawed 4 burner gas stove. the stock pot has boiling pasta fagioli on the front burner; a low slow rolling boil. simmering on the back burner is honey-dripped sauce soon to be ladled over braised short ribs. paired with a 69 year old black licorice liqueur.

Elastic

Well. There is alot to tell about this one and i fear i could write a book, but i spare you. Haha! I've discovered the Japan Synth Pioneer Jun Fukamachi quite some time ago and while doing so, i digged every possible Album on Youtube and leeched this craft. Also had the chance to buy me a few CD's, as there are not so much out there.... rare jewels ... :)

I simply love him. His diversity and ingenousness is something i really really set as a high mark for myself. As long as i can "recall", there was music in my life and even as a child and later on as young and old teenager i loved to go fully emotional with music (like listening to Seal - Kiss from a Rose when a girl broke up with me back then, or discovering ACDC's Back in Black feeling like a little Rocker.... Nirvana and the tragedy when i heard that "Kurtl", as we would could his first name in German, just put a (wtf) shotgun in his head and pulled the trigger... )

Later on i was a pure Metalbanger and even while being one, i was listening to all of the Subgenres, and liked them, no pure black, death, trash, power, or whatsoever,...... This is something i think was always there due to being libra zodiac sign... balance... I became older and suddenly metal was not enough... so i digged everything and no matter if its eletronic, oldschool rock, experimental, classic, ambient, jazz, blues, .... and so on.... i love the variety and this brings me to all of YOU.

I had tons of cds, the napster era , the youtube extreme "following the youtube algorythm into crazy places" thing, i was in wacken as young metalbanger, listening to classic concerts, going to musicals and even watching an opera.... diversityyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy..... and now... soundcloud!!! I cannot get enough and if there would be a risk of getting a burnout from listening to all of you, id be the first, for real.

Now the song. I finished it before i even took the andrew huang online course and i am fking happy to exactly release it with the skills i had back then and i dont want to brag ... but i really cant tell you people what struck me back then... maybe this immense jun fukamachi listening and discovering alot of people on here, on the cloud, which already influences me ALOT.

I would not be at the place where i am right now, without YOU and so i dedicate Gate 138 to all of YOU. This piece is LOVE and FUN, and CRAZY and im putting a few words in CAPSLOCK, just because i CAN. HHAAHAHA.

The story behind this cover is a complete different one to tell and please dont be too hard on me because this text is already huuuuuuuuge and long! So finished the piece and i had this picture in my head. There was simply nothing i could get on the web to build it with my graphic skills, neither (not yet lol) am i able to draw it myself, so i checkt out Fiverr and looked for a special and unique artist with his very own style.... and i found him!!

John Bucknall. A young very talented artist from UK. He has as a very unique mindset and it took way longer than i wanted to... he was not very fast, but no complains here. The whole process from zero to the finished cover was just nothing i ever experienced before, and i am really happy that i did choose him and that he exactly managed to draw this stuff in his own style, but presenting that track in the way i wanted it to be with visuals. (btw we are both on the picture to discover..... heheh). You can find him here -> https://www.instagram.com/johnbucknallart

The story behind this is quite simple. You could transform the situation to any other stressed and crazy thing going on in your life. There is this little android guy and he is freaking out because he is about to miss his shuttle... he worked hard and is always flying around on business trips and hell yeah... life really treats him not so nice... haha. I feel really with him and wished he would catch the shuttle but yeah... whatever. 

Commander Fullyard out.

A month or so ago I did a remix of a wonderful track by Ughten... but there was something missing so have been mucking around for a little while and came up with this version. Here is some info on Ughten......
Ughten is collaboration between two friends Chase Rockwell and Electric Supply Station.
A friendship spanning 25 years built on music, dancing and confusing the minds of people we meet.
Ughten is created by the simple melodies and ideas crafted by Electric Supply Station being torn apart and reimagined by Chase Rockwell.
Collaboration with no limits.

Great fun to work with, big thanks for asking me onboard. You can find them here.... https://soundcloud.com/user-682883093

Random Space-Ape Synth-Nerd somewhere out there!

There is so much talent and variety here, and most of the people are pretty cool too. I love being part of this community. Listening to your music and being heard in return is enough.

Still reading? OK I'm gonna muse a bit. It's hard to fully convey how much this forum has meant to me. There are people I've never met that feel very much like old friends -- and in a very real way they are.
If I follow someone I make every effort to listen to and support their efforts. It's certainly not a transactional relationship but I do tend to limit my follows to people who engage in mutual listening and engagement.
