Quite the satisfying melodic sub/percussion element too.

very creative with nice modulation, great mix

This is really really good..lots of senses touched by the different tones/sounds/melodies but it all fits together...definitely mellow

Very awesome use of over lapping sounds! Always interesting movements in strange fashion....

Wonderful chill groove. Nice darker tones.

An intriguing composition and interchanging instruments we’ll done

Taffeta 177

TAFFETA | 177

Greetings and good afternoon to my SC friends. This is the 10th and final song intended for my upcoming album ‘What Color Is Your Paradox’. It is also my 7th mind-blowing collaboration with our dear friend Carlos Vivanco (https://soundcloud.com/carlosvivanco-1, https://carlosvivanco1.bandcamp.com). 

This piece was highly entertaining and challenging to work on. We started with clearly defined regions (mine being the more techno sounding stuff… Carlos building the traditional instrument sections). I then mangled the whole thing, and tried to blur the lines more as the song progresses, until both worlds felt fully merged by the end. At least, that was the goal. I’ll let you decide if the structure succeeds in that regard. :)

The title is also quite significant to me at this point in my life; based on the idea of ‘masking’, and our growing inability to do so. 

If you aren’t familiar with the term ‘masking’, one Mental Health Care website I found defines it this way: “Masking often involves suppressing or hiding true emotions, which can lead to a buildup of unresolved feelings and contribute to increased stress, anxiety, and emotional turmoil in the long-term. In the context of mental health and neurodivergence, masking refers to the actions or coping strategies that individuals use to conceal their genuine thoughts, emotions, or challenges.”

It didn’t really occur to me at first that I was masking when I was younger. I guess that idea doesn’t resonate when you’re deeply lost in the illusion; at least, until something makes it obvious. But in hindsight, I’ve worn many masks over the course of my life (Art Director, Technician, Pre-Press Specialist and Graphic Artist would be some of my professional masks. And I would even go so far as to include Husband, Father and Son, since I was on auto-pilot during the earliest stages of those as well). 

As my life progressed, I felt more and more insincere in those roles. I felt something was wrong. I just couldn’t put my finger on it. Then COVID (something that actually required us to wear real masks. What irony!) came along, and miraculously changed that for all of us. We gained the necessary space we needed, to finally see the illusion more clearly. Now, that illusion grows more fragile and transparent by the day. So while I’m still in the early stages of trying to figure out the new paradigm… I suspect the really critical takeaway at this point is just recognizing when we’re being our genuine selves, and when we’re lost in a role; especially if that role is debilitating to our personal growth and well being.

Another thing I’m thinking a lot on these days…. Society is dependent on me playing those roles. And society doesn’t really care whether I’m happy or not (as long as I keep paying my bills, and buying their products, and believing their lies). So maybe, just maybe, society doesn’t have my best interests at heart (as I had originally hoped). Maybe… just maybe… we’re going to need to redefine who we are personally, as we stop playing along with this globally unconscious and ultimately destructive agenda.

Thick and chunky topic, I know. But that’s the way the world feels to me these days… like we needed a brisk slap across the face to wake us all up. COVID was that slap (and probably just the first of many still to come). It’s time to prioritize our own self interests; because if we don’t, they certainly won’t. So rip off those masks, and let your freak flag fly. It’s our life, and we’ll be the ones sitting on our deathbed, asking ourselves if we lived life true to ourselves…. or if we just fulfilled the role demanded by this illusion.

We hope you enjoy “Cracks In The Surface”; and it inspires you to think about what aspects of your reality are cracking. Keep in mind… if you still have a pulse, there is always time to change things up. :)

Cracks In The Surface | Carlos Vivanco & GrevusAnjl

CONFEST: This song actually tune is a reflection of memories that I still have from the down to earth movement in Northern Victoria Australia, from a festival called Contest, for some reason I still remember my first days to Confest the old guy on the gate collecting money as we pulled up in the car with that huge slonger ( dick) hanging in your face. We as a small community group amongst 1000,s of others,  would camp along the river in the hot Australian sun some days 50C or about 122f crying out for a small wind to blow from the river all the time listening to that constant drumming  soothing destressing drumming which never stop throughout the festival, at night when the cool change would come that drumming would provide the back drop for a most peaceful sleep being rocked to sleep with the Confest drums, only to be woken by the crows and kookaburras dancing to the drums in the morning

Hip Hop ?? Colors

A song about a close family member who really needs to understand that his relationship is over. 
And she as been letting him down gently without ever officially ending it. 
He continued to constantly offer his thoughts and opinions of which he considered it to be helpful but she did not appreciate or even understand it. 
He was casting his pearls before the final swine. 

CASTING PEARLS 

V1
How many times can you lay yourself bare 
make it the last as she now doesn’t care 
It’s face down in the water doesn’t wanna share 
Herself her children & this love affair 

Chorus 
I can see you were casting pearls 
Before the final swine 
It doesn’t seem to matter now
This girls made up her mind 
For the final  time

V2
Here we are yet again and again 
Riding two wheels to just to heal the pain 
Inspiring the life that feels mundane 
Ride your sunset from your hurricane

Chorus 
I can see you were casting pearls 
Before the final swine 
It doesn’t seem to matter now
This girls made up her mind 
For the final  time

Casting Pearls ~ Conscience Of Kings

I THINK I'VE HAD A FUNNY TURN

CHORUS
I think I've had a funny turn
A mental disconnect
A blip that few would come to expect
So zip it
Think I've had a funny turn

Smile - dribble 
What's the matter with my cerebral matter
Broken overdrive
Distant vision
Pass the pint I'm on a mission
Fanboy photo autographs

CHORUS

Broken battered
There's nothing in the past that matters
Vomit putrid
Same my face
Dickie ticker
Watch me I'm a window licker
Tasting germs and times of old

CHORUS

I Think I've Had a Funny Turn (with Kris Bolin)

Come over to the Laundromat, leave the fabric softer. 
Separate your delicates from heavy load, insert your coin and let it take care of the rest. Get in your morning coffee between breaths, relax and vibe. 

Our first ever EP on Above The Surface, Marshall Anderson's - Laundromat delivers a slick Jazz-lathered, Neo-Soul soaked, wonky Hip-Hop with some soulful cheekiness in the mix. Dripping with drunk swing, psychedelic riffs, sultry keys and funky bass, the vibe is truly alive right here at the Laundromat.
