喧噪に埋もれたうたの節回し
掘り当てようと
街をさまよう

Someone told me that melodies are buried in the hustle and bustle of the city. Since then, I have been walking around the city trying to dig out melodies.

Finding The Melody

method: layering; akai miniak, boss vo-1,  ehx grand canyon and walrus audio ages
narration: things do change, don't they .... aiming for that 'eno feel', I allowed too much dirt in - and liked it ;-)

poem / copyright jo richter:

he holds out a hand
watches the light change

a voice clings to him
as he walks past the building

THIS IS THE DAY
THE FUTURE WILL VANISH

trajectory minds
a dime a dozen

unidentified objects
of thought and delusion

THIS IS THE DAY
ELECTROMAGNETIC

all over the suburbs
giant birds roosting

spreading their wings
across minute houses

THIS IS THE DAY
THAT LASTS FOREVER

he feels vibration
life under his feet

atmospheric dilations
sentinence seeds

THIS THE DAY
EVERYTHING FLOATS

EVERYTHING FLOATS

the day everything

Laniakaea - Valhjim - Remastered 2023.

"Laniakea" captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the universe through sound. Brace yourself for an auditory expedition that mirrors the grandeur of the cosmos, where the harmonies of synthesizers, the resonance of electric guitars, and the pulsating beats converge like stars in the night sky.

Laniakea - Valhjim - Remastered 2023

Feeling very lucky to be involved in this recent festival project. Link to website at the bottom of this info. There is a lot to this one! The short version is under the guidance of Composer Madeleine Flynn myself and 6 other musicians performed a beautiful work on two different rivers in my home state of Tasmania during the MONA FOMA 2021 festival. The instrumentation included horns, strings, sirens/fog horns, intonarumori and many other sound and trad instruments as well as a beautiful and moving text from Theresa Saintly. Here is a small summary from the program guide. ...
Relay / Country Remembers Her Names

Madeleine Flynn, Tim Humphrey with Theresa Sainty

A slowly unfolding relay of land and sea signals echoes across our fair island, opening and closing the festival. Foghorns streamed from Low Head, boat horns, sirens, experimental intonarumori instruments, palawa kani (the language of Tasmanian Aboriginal people), bagpipe streamed from Queenstown, and other sound-making apparatus call each other over land and water, and ask us to reflect on where we are. From wukalina / Mount William and pilawaytakinta / Low Head, to Queenstown, Launceston and nipaluna / Hobart.  

You will hear the work projected from a moving vessel meandering close to shore. In Launceston, listen from the banks of kanamaluka / Tamar River around Riverbend Park, Royal Park and Seaport. In Hobart, listen from the banks of the Derwent around the Hobart foreshore, to Long Beach, Sandy Bay, and on the eastern shore between Howrah and Bellerive. 

The full story and list of all involved (there was lots live stuff streamed to the vessel as well as the onboard musos) can be found here

Two track recording, synth/key/piano/rhythm are live recording, guitar added afterwards.  The sound has a little rough/muddy color but might suit this track.
This would be typical an interplay between two movements with less compact sound.

Rundown Runaround

Another bluesy tune...

Someday somebody’s gone get wise to you
They gone see right through all the things you do
Someday somebody’s gone realize it’s true
Open up your eyes of blue, show your worth to you

What makes somebody want to shut it down, build a wall all around you
And it’s going nowhere, but there’s someone, my dear
Who can see that a light surrounds you
One day you’re find out who...

We all have songs in the past we’ve sung
That can’t be undone, so you move along
Don’t get hung up on mistakes you own
We have surely grown and we’re not alone

If I could find a way to tear it down, take a look around inside you
But I’m outside looking in, and I don’t know where I’ve been
And I can’t give you this love that’s denied you
But somebody’s gonna make your make your dreams come true…

Give you all that you need, give you love, give you peace,
Give you life, help you breathe, give you pride, give you dreams,
Give you hope through it all, help you tear down the wall,
And you know this much is true, that somebody’s you!

It's You
