A dance track born of a yearning for escape and an uncharacteristic urge to dance. (I actually love to dance but I liked @sixfourzerotwo's confessional)

I was very lucky to collaborate with Philleann @philleann: on such a beautiful song. 
Peter @user-264930040 collaborated on the lyrics. 


The Glimmering Shore

They married in haste on a bright winter’s day 
Knowing the next tide would sail him away 
But he pledged his return come the warmth of the May
 And to wait for him there on the glimmering shore

High masted whaler, fading from view 
Beyond her horizon of shimmering blue 
Steeling her heart, through tearful adieu 
Set to wait for her love by that glimmering shore

May’s softness as swallows came dancing on air 
July blessed her life with his daughter so fair 
Then autumn winds rising, whispering despair 
While she waits for her love on that glimmering shore

Darklings of winter, snow blankets the sand.
 Earth forged to ice, life stripped from the land. 
Daily returning, the horizon to scan 
To wait for her love on that glimmering shore

Weeks swelled to months that folded to years
 Hope’s light expiring, extinguished by fears 
And the salty sea roared and it crashed like her tears
As she waits for her love on that glimmering shore

Like a ship gripped by tempest ne’er to break free
 Her heart imprisoned on a turbulent sea. 
No lighthouse of guidance to lead her to lee. 
She'd wait for her love on that glimmering shore

Guitar - Philip Hitt

The Glimmering Shore (feat. Philleann)

Copperfield has all-too-vivid recollection of the terrifying storm at Yarmouth and the tragic end to a near-to-shore rescue attempt.
Have a listen to the wonderful creations of https://soundcloud.com/candyside-arcade


As clearly as I see
As clearly as I see, what happened then
Before me now, it happens again

Greet the faces, scenes and figures in the fire
The howl and the roar, ratttling windows, pews and doors
Streets of lead ripped clean from the high church spire
The dark invests the storm, with terror in new forms

Repeat As clearly as I see...

Fearful of falling stacks, (the) showered salt rains down
Streets strewn with sand dunes; trees torn from the ground
The tremeduous sea in grip of blinding crown
High watery walls whip and engulf this shattered town

Repeat As clearly as I see
Cue: wild sea electrifying guitar solo, bass undercurrents, piano sea spray and percussive turbulence

The ship's bell wrung its neck; she rose with two men gone
He made toward the wreck, striving valiantly and strong
They drew him to the shore and tried by all means and skills
So shaken to the core, a generous and meek heart stilled

As clearly as I see

As Clearly As I See

Bubbles

1.
Some bubbles don’t have the slightest clue
What public relation is capable to do
That  we don’t really know what we want
Because the real free will is not at hand
Some bubbles are just notorious
They tell you that they’re great and glorious

If you believe in what they’re bubbling of
If you believe in what they’re bubbling of
If you believe in that 
If you believe in what they are bubbling of

It still might just be
A product of the PR-industry

2.
Some bubbles think they’re superior
Consider all others inferior
They’ll never ever gonna get it why
Other bubbles can be LGTBI
Some bubbles are just really dumb
Thinking their leaders have the biggest trump

If you believe in what they are babbling of
You think you’ re entertained with lots of laugh
If you believe in that
If you believe in what they are babbling of

This works everywhere the same
Think!
Propaganda was it’s name
All of us just might be 
Influenced by the PR-industry

3.
Some bubbles are just smaller than
Other bubbles who are taller and
Some bubbles are just intolerant
They’re not indifferent `bout the difference
Some bubbles are just really tough
They never ever seem to get enough

If you believe in what they’re bubbling of
If you believe in what they’re babbling of
If you believe in that
If you’d believe in that

This works everywhere the same
Think!
Propaganda was its name
All of us just might be 
Influenced by the PR-industry

out
But if you’d think that there is something more
That there’ s a force that is in all of us
There might be a chance for us
If you believe in, if you believe in
Love

Up in the North
Down in the South
Deep in the West
And far in the East

In attempting to create a little more Celestial Harmonics,
I came up with something that seemed as if 
it must have been evoked from a tune far back in my past.
After about a week or so, it dawned on me that it felt a lot like:

Jaques Offenbach's
Barcarolle: Les contes d'Hoffman:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7czptgEvvU

So, I began the track with my version on a short homage to his work.
However,  his work was in 6/8,
while mine was hanging out in 4/4.

But then...So What...Right?

Barcarolle Céleste

Joon's compositional skill, gives 'Mountain' the intensity and gradual build-up that captures the essence of the song while honouring his own unique style.

This track features vocals and lyrics created by Jennifer Roe. Please visit her SoundCloud page for more amazing music.

“Crystal Radio” is 4 track album released in 2022.  The central thread related to how time and life flow in an unpredictable pattern, but within boundaries. Lines are created based on decisions we make, big or small.  How different would someone’s life change based on these decisions?  Even say, stopping or not stopping to have a drink at a water fountain, decades previously. Everything after would have been jostled around, but with what impact?  

Two previous tracks have used this theme. ‘Silica Daughter’ appears on the 2021 project “Cloktacs III” and uses a sample where the question is asked, “You won’t fail me will you?”.  Later in 2021, samples from the 90-year-old movie ‘Back Street’ were repurposed to create a radio play called ‘Back Lane’ which will be aired as part of the 2022 Radiophrenia event in Scotland. The storyline of the movie follows a chain of events set in motion by a simple decision that alters the lives of the characters completely, forever, and ends in a classic, ‘what if’…

The final track “Tracing Home” again features Jennifer,  bookending this project with two fabulous performances.

Samhain
The púca
Of all the ghosts and fairies abroad on Halloween, the púca (or pooka) was the most feared and October 31st was known as Púca Night in parts of Ireland. The púca, meaning 'goblin', can be malevolent or benevolent and is not solely associated with Halloween. It's a mythological fairy and the ultimate shapeshifter, capable of appearing in a variety of forms but most commonly as a dark horse or part dog.

Spring Solstice


Winter Solstice 
The Winter Solstice is an astronomical phenomenon that marks the shortest day and the longest night of the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, the Winter Solstice occurs on 21 or 22 December, when the sun shines directly over the tropic of Capricorn. At sunrise on the shortest day of the year, for 17 minutes, direct sunlight can enter the Newgrange monument, not through the doorway, but through the specially contrived small opening above the entrance known as the ‘roof box’, to illuminate the Chamber.

First swallow of the year
Welcome, welcome
From out of mud in lakes
Were you resting there?



March

Unveils like a first thought
A whisper



February

"Nothing stands out yet", you said
As you looked over your shoulder
Broad and rounded, square and hunched
I thought I heard you say, "We are water
And over time we solidify"

Snow white egret
among fields of greenandbrown
Are you lost in its vastness?
Bubulcus ibis.

DE-cem- ber
Silver EEL migration 
down river to the sea
on a moonless night

through
an obstcale 
of nets
Cutting blades
pollution
And 
Par -a -sites
White egret



December
Mild to touch, not yet winter
snow drop dropping still
daffodil 

November, can I surrender to your dying
Are you truly dying or surrendering



Is it not enough to be ALIVE, autumn 
As birds migrate thousands of miles, autumn
Of an inner stirring and outward knowing

Is BE-ING
to Our Mind
bor -ing

As summer turns, it turns
To autumn, autumn
The slugs and worms live at the root; 
The slugs eat the juice of carrot
Is it good for their EyEs too...?

I buried a 'th' in the soil
With vowels and nettles
And I, this eyE, aye, oh
This What...?
This sometimes
Known thing
Doesn't kNOW oh oh

Winter take, take these
Sor rows, lay them
Deep ee eep
To become worms
for the birds to eat


ever ever
Denied to
