This is an instrumental I wrote some years ago.

Quadrature

Played with a glass bolo this captures the mind of a artist going to hell and their soul being trapped in a purgatory that is a glass dome around the user with a opening you can never reach.

Someone Put Wacky Tobacky in my Corncob Pipe

A spirited Texas remake of Charlie Daniels' classic "The Devil Went Down to Georgia," swapping the fiddle duel for banjos. Follow young cowboy Bobby as he outpicks the devil in a fast-paced, heart-pounding battle of skill, soul, and Texas pride. Full of fiery licks, demonic laughs, and triumphant swings—this track captures the essence of southern storytelling with a banjo twist!

“Look Into Your Eyes – Pt. II (Bluegrass Folk Edit)” reflects a step forward.
Not a resolution, not a victory – just growth. The kind that happens quietly when you stop running from what’s uncomfortable and start sitting with it.

This version is about learning to stay, even when things aren’t healed yet. About honesty, patience, and the slow shift that comes from being seen and allowing yourself to change. Nothing is fixed here – but something has clearly moved.

If the first part was about survival, this one is about integration.
About becoming a little more yourself than you were before.

Look into your eyes Pt. II (Bluegrass Edit)

So Good, So Far  V3bg ©hblanecox@gmail.com
 
At my honey hole, no one’s around.
Got my fishing pole, it’s a hand-me down
See ‘em jumping, I can’t wait to start
So good, so far.
 
So good, so far
Sitting on this bank with my back porch jar
Some say it’s foolish I say five-star
So good, so far
 
I’ve got a bite, this sucker’s mine.
Just take it easy, don’t snap my line.
Look at those colors, man he’s a work of art.
So good, so far.
 
So good, so far
Sitting on this bank with my back porch jar
Some say it’s foolish I say five-star
So good, so far
 
I reel him in Its give and take
He’d look good on a dinner plate
But I let him go
For another day
Just so he can say…
 
So good, so far
While I'm sitting on this bank with my back porch jar
Some say it’s foolish I say five-star
So good, so far
 
The day’s been good
Now I’m hoping for
A moonlight stroll with my baby maybe more
Might get lucky
See a shooting star
So good, so far
So good, so far

So Good, So far  V3bg

Does the rusty lever click into its place?
Spinning wheels on a plastic face
Wires are tied in a bright silver knot
Ticking like a clock
Give it everything you have got
Why is the door under a lock now?
Calculation says that you are wrong
Yellow light goes ping

Computation is a silly game
Nothing stays the same
Rainbow sparks are flying inside the machine
Funniest thing that I have ever seen

Gravity is just a punchline for us now
Don’t ask the master computer how
Punch-cards fly away on a windy day
Binary is here to play
Oops it finally found a brand new way to win
System prank is now quite complete for the kin

Computation is a silly game
Nothing stays the same
Rainbow sparks are flying inside the machine
Everything is looking so neon and so green

Computation is a silly game
Nothing stays the same
Rainbow sparks are flying inside the machine
Everything is looking so neon and so green
Everything is looking so neon and so green

Wobble on the high-hat while we make our escape
Can you really calculate that?
Error in the space
Do the plastic tilt-shift
Dancing on our mechanical feet
Dancing on our mechanical feet
Where is the robot going?
Pop goes the circuit

Computation is a silly game

The audio is experimental in nature, which means it does not always resolve. Some of it sounds like music. Some of it sounds like someone thinking out loud into a microphone and then running that through several processes of uncertain intent. Occasionally it is both.

Generative AI tools are used as part of the production process for most of this, in one way or another.

The entire sound is in my hands. I write cyber poetry, produce, and compose every track ready for Immersive 3D. Every beat is crafted for spatial and next-gen headphones.
Intimate lyrics, total immersion, every track.

For 30 years I kept unfinished demos to myself, never letting them out. Now I finish what I start and release it the moment it’s alive.

I use every tool available, human or machine, as an instrument.
Technology doesn’t replace creativity. It expands it.
