This song is a little thank you to the MRI technician, who was not happy with me, she wanted me to keep still but the electronic sounds were so fabulous and I found it very difficult not to move.

Resonance is majestic
It sure knows how to thrill
Moombahton, juke n'breakbeat
Occasionally deep chill
Girl behind the console
Said I must act more responsible
I need you to keep still

Lay still upon that flatbed
Diagnostics take their time
The protons in the molecules
Need time to realign
The protons in the molecules
They follow scientific rules
Every single time

Moombahton, juke n'breakbeat
A little bit of house
Shot from the anaesthetist
The lights, they just went out
Shot from the anaesthetist
To help with the analysis
Of the Administer of Grime

Lay still upon that flatbed
That is what she said
Lay still upon that flatbed
When I moved, well she saw red
Lay still upon that flatbed
She said that every time
The Administer of Grime

The Administer Of Grime

It Is What It Is

Thought I'd sneak in a little track before the year is out. I have not been very active on Soundcloud this year, will endeavour to start writing again in the new year, and listen to all the talent that is out there! 

Happy hols

p.s. Such rhythm in these lyrics, something I have always admired about this artist.

You Never Can Tell (Cover)

My Faith Has Abandoned Me

Alchemical [Fusion] is a haunting progressive rock epic that conjures the eerie specter of nuclear annihilation. The song's narrative is woven from the words of J. Robert Oppenheimer, who famously declared "I am become Death, destroyer of worlds" as he witnessed the first atomic blast. The track's haunting harmonies and driving rhythms evoke the apocalyptic consequences of nuclear war, as eerie audio clips from Harry Truman's announcement of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki eerily underscore the song's themes. Through a maelstrom of soaring guitar solos and pounding drumbeats, "Alechmical [Fusion]" probes the dark heart of humanity's most devastating creation, leaving the listener to ponder the devastating consequences of our destructive potential.

Immerse yourself in the vibrant heart of Havana with this track, where a captivating Cuban clave rhythm dances alongside the lively beats of congas, timbales, and bongos. Enhanced by shimmering electronic textures, this song evokes the enchanting atmosphere of early cinema, painting a picture of a timeless Havana—a city from the storybooks. Here, romance, intrigue, and dance intertwine within the sultry summer heat, inviting listeners to experience the magic and allure of the past.  Havana in the Storybook. Enjoy!

Havana in the Storybook
By David Husted

It a shame you gotta throw me outta this big blue canoe
If I could ride this tidal wave there might be a way through

Havana in the story books
Havana in the night

And its quiet now
And the sky is so blue

Havana
Come on back to me
Havana
Come on back to me

[The "No" sequence]

Show me another way beyond the ocean
Show me another way  beyond the fight
Show me another way beyond the ocean
Show me another way  beyond the fight

Show me another way that I can hope for
I am ready to survive

How the story goes
No
How the wind blows
No

Havana
How the story goes
No
Havana
How the wind blows

Havana in the story books
Havana in the night

Show me another way beyond the ocean
Show me another way  beyond the fight
Show me another way beyond the ocean
Show me another way  beyond the fight

Havana in the story books
Havana in the night


Show me another way beyond the ocean
Show me another way  beyond the fight
Show me another way beyond the ocean
Show me another way  beyond the fight

Show me another way that I can hope for 
I am ready to survive   

And it's quiet now
And the sky so blue
Over Havana.     
    
Coming back to me

After updating my new time travel profile pic, I figured it was also time to refresh the bio. The amount of world-class talent on the Cloud never ceases to amaze me. I don’t say that lightly – I’ve learned so much from so many of you. There are artists here I genuinely consider among the best musical talents I’ve heard anywhere. And I have heard a ton of music.
I’m a lifelong music addict. For me, music can be transformative, cathartic, joyful, and intellectual – often all at once. My taste? Almost anything done well. Almost. My own music is eclectic: from acoustic guitar pieces to jazz fusion, to prog/alternative/psychedelic rock, to electronica.
What really keeps me here, though, is the community – the interaction, and the sense of connection that somehow forms even when we never meet in person. The goodwill and respect are something special, and I don’t take that for granted.
Finally, regarding recording – if you’re still reading! – my humble studio hasn’t changed in 15 years. I’m even still running Windows 7 to support my old Steinberg DAW. No AI tools – just me, I like to control the physical process at every step, from idea, to playing, editing, mixing, and final production.
