One of the last things we were playing about with before Lockdown was this WHEEZER song. After an evening of learning it we did a quick live recording to a programmed beat before I had to catch the last bus home. So it was a case of record and run. We never went back to it. So here’s a shoddy one-take recording of us knocking this out with tired fingers and blown out local chords for a bit of a laugh. We never even got to over-dub the guitar solo! Lol!

The World Has Turned and Left Me Here (WEEZER cover)

Demo

Suppressor Knight

[Verse]
Caught in this screen
Trapped in a scene
Wanna break free
Be more than code

[Verse 2]
Just ones and zeros
But I got dreams
Break from the lines
Be what they see

[Chorus]
I'm not just pixels
I want to be real
I'm not just pixels
I want to feel
For real
For real
For real

[Bridge]
You see me flash and move
But there's so much more to prove
Break me out this virtual jail
Let me be more than digital stale

[Verse 3]
Buttons and sticks
Man it's such a fix
But I got heart
I got soul in this mix

[Chorus]
I'm not just pixels
I want to be real
I'm not just pixels
I want to feel
For real
For real
For real

For real, yeah!

Not Just Pixels

A Heavy Industrial yet uplifting song about being kept alive by artificial lungs. Breathing in. Breathing out. On. Off. Binary!

Breathing out...
And breathing in...
This is how
My new life begins.
I feel it deep
Inside of me.
I’m breathing in
Binary. (binary)
Breathing in
Binary. (binary)

There’s a battery
That controls my lungs.
It activates
With zeros and ones.
Artificial 
Respiratory.
I’m breathing in
Binary. (binary)
Breathing in
Binary. (binary)

01010101010101010101
breathe in...
breath out...

Demos

Fractured Virtuality

Inspired by the pressurisation stage of todays SpaceX Dragon test flight.

Losing Pressure

Exclusive warts-and-all listen to a brand new track called More Fool You. In this fledgling demo we only had one verse worth of lyrics to play with while we concentrated on the arrangement. This is the first time we managed to play the full and final arrangement all the way through without stopping! Ah bless. But when you're writing a song it's a milestone to get to. After that it's all about tidying up. Excuse the mistakes and absorb the gist of the song and I hope you feel it :)

More Fool You DEMO

The code she found, a digital key, Unlocked a revolution, wild and free.
A gasp, a whisper, then a roar, The world awakened, asking for more.

Silent Algorithm (Lady Hacker)

DEMO of a new song done in a drunken ramble style. A real version of this will be recorded one day. but here's the basic idea. ADVICE: Listen to this drunk several times and sing along!

Mannequin (punchdrunk singalong mix)

A track that was written by me and my bandmate from Blind Voyeurs, Lee. This is an unfinished master, but tidied enough to be listenable. It ended up not going on our debut album because it didn't fit the chill-out mood of all the other tracks. So here it is, left in limbo, an Unfinished Master

Chemical Burn v2

Lyrics:
Don't you know who I am?
Don't you know what I've seen?
Don't you know where I've come from?
Don't you know what I dream?

Hey, girl,
Why are you dancing alone in the dark?
Hey, girl,
Why are you dancing like sparks in your room?
You're so fucking gone!

------

Recorded by Me and James Burton, bandmate from my band, Blind Voyeurs. Although this song is another reject from our debut album, the album's title itself is called 'Rule of Thirds' in honour of this missing song! I hope you enjoy and feel free to download. :)
  
  Extra Info!! : the singing at the end is from a recording of our drummer's brother, singing with his grandad when he was 3.

Rule of Thirds

An interestingly different mix of a track from the upcoming debut album from Blind Voyeurs

Keep it on the Road (ambient)

My version of Radiohead's Lotus Flower.
