We’re tired of reaching for the tempered dream
Of stretching days and getting squeezed by years
And bored with the swaggers the pushes and 	shoves
Of people in rushes to get somewhere

Like hogs in a slaughterhouse hoping to eat
Like children in the rye without a catcher
Why chase the wind we can turn and face it
Why measure time by the mirror in our room
We can follow earth we can follow sun
We can follow stars and moon

We’re dying to live in the material world
While blinded by the pixels as they stream
We’d sooner starve alone in the lively air
Than follow billions to a phone dream

Like hogs in a slaughterhouse hoping to eat
Like children in the rye without a catcher
Why chase the wind we can turn and face it
Why measure time by the mirror in our room
We can follow earth we can follow sun
We can follow stars and moon

Face the Wind

In the In Between \\ villain's story was captured fully in the moment, this track breathes ‘90s nostalgia with raw energy and honest storytelling. Sara Khula’s resonator guitar riffs flow freely as Natalie Rae channels lyrics and melodies live, weaving a gritty and soulful tale from the shadows.



In the In Between

A draft to quickly track songs to remember.  I used a scratch track recorded with a zoom h1n essentials and play and sung on top of the TEMPO metronome app.  Then opened in logic and overdubbed all the tracks on top of it,  No interfaces no plugins, just the BLUE YETI usb mic.  The fain electric guitar was recorded with the same mic'ed 24¨from the Behringer V-AMP.. Guitar is a brawley with P90's connected to the amp and the effects loop two real stomp pedals the tc electronic choka tremolo and the sky surfer for plate reverb.  ... in Logic Pro a little bus on the big empty church reverb was added.  Then the vocals were put way in the back with some of the library Logic Pro plugins for vocal effects like the "WARM VOCAL" and the "VINTAGE VOCAL".  Afte tracking the guitars with no plugins went and picked the "fingerpicked " preset for a little reverb and eq.  A work in progress... I know I need to redo it sometime soon but just wanted to get started again!  Thank you for listening and reading my rants.

Heaven Is  (Kacey Musgraves Cover)

When the world feels like it’s falling apart, sometimes the only thing left to hold on to is the music. This one’s fragile, but it’s everything.

It's All I Have

The curveball of the EP — restless, experimental, and unpredictable. A reminder that even in stripped-back spaces, chaos finds a way in.

Chaotic Ball of Energy

Some truths keep resurfacing no matter how deep you try to bury them. This track is about facing what won’t stay quiet — even when it hurts.

Can't Ignore It

A conversation with the mirror — questioning who I am when the noise is gone. Just me, a guitar, and the voice in my head that doesn’t let me off easy.

FrailerKino is the lo-fi folk project of Juan Cordero — a collection of ghost songs, borderland memories, and warm sounds for quiet rooms.

These aren’t covers. They’re fragments. Postcards. Bits of melody passed down, half-remembered, and re-recorded with tired fingers and an open heart.

Drawing from Mexican classics, Appalachian ballads, and worn-out American anthems, FrailerKino isn’t about nostalgia — it’s about what songs leave behind. Each track is stripped down to its bones, often recorded in a single take, with the room left in — hiss, hum, breath, silence.

This is music for empty houses. For the in-between spaces. For people who still believe in melody, even if it wavers.

FrailerKino isn’t here to revive the past — just to sit with it, kindly.

Thanks for Clicking!

Luke Wayne is a self-made rapper and producer from Ventura, California — representing the 805 with a sound that’s as expansive as it is grounded. Lucid, his third self-produced album, is the result of a deep personal awakening sparked by a powerful out-of-body experience. From concept to completion, the entire album was created by Luke himself — no features, no outside production — just raw honesty, visionary soundscapes, and the kind of lyrical depth that lingers.

With each release, Luke has sharpened his voice and broadened his sound. But Lucid stands as his most ambitious and soul-baring project yet — exploring ego death, self-discovery, and the clarity that comes when the mind opens and the spirit speaks.
