loving your lo-fi sixties sound, it's like you have a time machine!

I totally agree with Steph, your sound is wonderfully reminiscent of the 60s. How do you record your tracks?

Imagine you had to walk all the way there.

Nature Bless You

You hate my face Yerunda
Can't stand this place Yerunda
It's just things we say
I'll send you back Yerunda
You will attack Yerunda
It's just things we say
We'll never die Yerunda
Yet never cry Yerunda
It's just things we say
Everything transforms 
All minds will rise
We'll stand forever 
And love never dies
Can't tell a lie
I am not wise Yerunda
We're hypnotised Yerunda
It's just things we say

Yerunda

Teach me how to live 
'Coz I haven't got a clue
How on earth do you do it?
New age self-help guru
Coz everyones screwing me over
But other institutions are not like you
Just when I thought my life was over 
New age self-help guru
You showed me what to do-
Give all my money to you 
Yes one day I will be a millionaire 
All my dreams will come true
Soon I will have not one care
Thanks to a book or two
I'd like to thank you again 
For making me feel so Zen
I owe it all to you
New age self-help
You need my self-help
New age self-help guru
Teach me how to live 
'Coz I haven't got a clue 
How on earth do you do it?

New age self-help guru

This is one of my first songs from around 2006, silly but I liked the tune

Please Don't Play (Your games with me)

Steppin' out my house just brings me down
Don't wanna don't wanna go out now 
The more I see the more I frown
Don't wanna don't wanna go out now 
Thickos, sickos, grin in disguise
Don't wanna don't wanna go out now
I see you coming I have to hide 
Don't wanna don't wanna go outside
Though the sublime sun is out
Though everyone seems to be out
Though everywhere is full of life 
All I need is in my mind 
I'm quite happy inside
Go out have fun, I don't mind 
Don't wanna don't wanna go outside
All I need I have to find
Modern architecture makes me sick
Don't wanna don't wanna go outside
My pub now flats taking the mick
Don't wanna don't wanna go outside 
Going into town just brings me down
Don't wanna don't wanna go out now 
The more I see the more I frown
Don't wanna don't wanna go outside

Happy inside

Vlad was born he'll soon be dead
All the in between is just a freezing head
So he might as well get soused instead 
He can barely afford to keep his poor wife fed
Got just enough to drink bootleg
Warm your head go bootleg
Life's a struggle so get drunk instead
Eyes burn red bathtub bed
He can't afford Vodka so he drinks bootleg
The poison running through his veins
Makes him sick and batters out his brains 
He knows a cure that'll save the day 
Another bottle not much to pay
Not in money anyway
It's ok just one more day
It's disinfectant but it's sweet to taste 
Who said you need your organs anyway
He's got no job so he will obey
Oh winters come- He's no one 
Winters here - Freeze his tears
The bastards in authority
Know the extent of the inpurity 
They sit and watch the young men die 
'' It's their choice so they've no right to cry''
They sit and watch them die
It's alright dry your eyes 
Go and see the bootleg guy
He makes it better and you no longer mind 
If you live or die
Warm your head go bootleg 
Life's a struggle so get drunk instead 
Eyes burn red bathtub bed
He's got no life so he drinks-
He's got no life because he drinks bootleg. 



Go Bootleg

Counted in the strange  
I walked away alone 
To my sacred grove
Lost In mossy darkness climbing
The routes of old 
Thistle barb or scorn
Could not lacerate 
In my pantheon
Shackles of dominion long gone
The green-faced shadow man
You’re my only friend
The green-faced shadow man
Soon the fires go out 
Whispers from the Underworld
Their schools banality   
Dead to me
Counted in the strange 
I walked away alone 
In others shoes well worn
Waiting for the ship bound for dawn
The green faced shadow man
You’re my only friend

The Green-faced Shadow Man

I have never recorded with acoustic guitar, so this is my first try.
I hope you like this small instrumental.

MANDATORY LONERS

We’re all mandatory loners 
Livin' as if we’re goners
Getting psyched up 
To go outside
No germ is irrelevant
Hands chapped like cracked leather
Life’s feather, increased treasure
Keep your head up you can’t tell whether
It’s a sore throat or the reaper.

It’s in the ether 
I can’t see it either.
Sorrow is getting cheaper
More on the shelves
That can be bought down

Run to your bible 
Read to see who’s liable
It doesn’t matter anyway
Equal opportunity life delay
Society sans community 
Must I explain
Let this be the shock that
Loosens the wedge and 
Lets peace and love reign.

Focus on your gathering
As much soap hands lathering
More alcohol been rubbing
Then gullet running
We’re all on the lam
This time its not from the man
Fueled by warmth and affection
Physical distance our only weapon

It’s in the ether 
I can’t see it either
Sorrow is getting cheaper
More on the shelves
That can be bought down

Don't You Cry

The astronaut is ambushed by a gang of space pirates while navigating an asteroid field.

Part four of a concept project I'm working on called 'The Astronaut'.

Space Pirates

A few judiciously chosen words and sweet music on certain aspects of modern life. Quote near the end is from Winston Churchill

Outsider songwriter cobbling lo-fi demos (because I don't know how not to). Achieved solo with a Tascam pocket studio, acoustic guitar, Telecaster, tambourine and bloody bongos...not all used on every track. Some Instrumentals. 

"Compliance is a deadly vice 
That makes you think you're safe
But the truths from which we hide
Become the horrors we face"  - The Cobbled Moth, from the song 'On the Outside' 2016.

Double translated as:
"Compliance is a deadly defect
This makes you think that you are safe
But the truths from which we hide
Become the horrors that we come across" Bulyznik Prays, or Cobbled Midge.
