The origin to this song is a guitar track by REKHA. I added som organ, synth bass and a keyboard played drum track as well as wrote lyrics and sang the underlying male vocal. REKHA finished it all off with the lead female vocal. This is long, but we do hope you enjoy listening.  And for all of you smokers and ex-smokers, you know what I'm talking about at the end...

FLAMES OF MY DESIRE

I can see 
I can feel
I can see you
I can feel you
Without you
I can feel you
Without you
I can be

I can see where you are
I can see where you’re going
I can see where you’ve been
I can feel what you want
I can feel what you need
I can feel your attraction
A chemical reaction
I can be your one and only fire
Your singular desire
Throw oil on the fire
Feed the flames of my desire
The flames of my desire

I can love
I can love
With you
Within you
I can be

I can drown in your scent
I can love your body
I can feel your reaction
I can lose my head
Be your one and only fire
Your singular desire
Feed the flames of my desire
Flames of my desire
Flames of my desire

I light up a cigarette
Open my window
I let out the steam
Signs and tells on the floor
The glow
The embers
The flames of my desire
The flames of my desire
The flames of my desire
The flames of my desire

Flames Of My Desire

This is an alternate mix of IPG1's Heavy Magic.   This was my original direction with this tune  - more funky and electronic, but the previous mix idea hit me and I couldn't put it down until it was done.  Now they're both done.  enjoy!

Gimme that mic----- once committed there's no limit
My true friend to the end----and I'm in it to win it
Putting art to the verse-----it's simply amazing
From the start I traverse the bars----fired up and blazing
Spit a bar and rehearse----- but --son----Still not done
Pull another out the air--------where'd that verse come from
Could it be that easy-----------that's a conundrum
Don't believe what you're hearing---- not until I'm all done
Ride the bars of the track -----without hesitation
Provide a look back ----for future generations
There's a real simple answer -----to this equations
IPG1's on the mic---and he rock the nation

-----driven ------impulsive ------true that
------ given -----prospective----got that
-------proven----progressive----on track
------infusing the message------ that's pure fact
------unforgiving ---unrelenting---like close combat
Pass me the mic and then——step the fuck back
It’s the underground————baby—a total—-power pack
———Underground ---domain--YEAH!---don't forget that-----
--Precision on the mic no regrets—-bitch I said it
------if I said it--- it's so --you better know
Come on let's get it--let's go----let's go--
living the——-highs ———as well as the lows
Keys from the underground—-Anything goes
Apts to the penthouse---yeah----maybe so—- but I’m
Trading the jeep for a Rolls —- just so you know
freedom of choice——-come on let’s go
Making my own laws——-so———fuck five-O
fuck five-O

——————-Cause there’s ----- no where to go but Up from the bottom
The art the craft the skillzzzz---yeah I gottem
Erupting from the pressure-----so� follow the flow
And I ain’t gonna stop until the whole hill glows
————-until the whole hill glows
Chorus
Little did they all know
ready from the word go
a born leader ——was never —-meant to follow
Creative—-innovator ——- that skill set you can borrow
￼a hustlers a schemer——i’mer holler back tomorrow

****
Incinerate trackss———￼That’s legendary
Life’s....all —business—-so —-it’s necessary
Mind body and spirit—-the souls outta body——...
Flame on —-ignite the fires—- then I’m gone
Game on—-Been fighting the fight ——since I was born
Turn up—- haters—you been —informed
Aims on —target—- I don’t miss —-forewarned
Dream on—— think you nice like this——-ahhh—come on

bringing fire to the game
Ignition to the flames
Pyro the name----No Hype—morals or- shame
going hard———just so —-you all know
If I crash and burn—-flame on —————-It’s just pyro
Bring it full circle—-ignition to the flame
Spark a fire——once it’s lit————it will ——never be the same

All synths are Nord Stage III native - with plenty of tweaks to all aspects. Apart from the drums there is no programming and everything is performable.

About volatility and self-control. Nearly all the time is not all the time and it’s worth remembering that.

SCREAM

Don’t you worry baby, it’ll all be fine
Don’t you worry baby, it’ll be alright

Who…
It’ll all work out
Not a scream or a shout
Who….
Sometimes
Nearly all the time

Don’t you worry baby, it’s gonna get better
Don’t you worry baby, it’s gonna be alright

Who…
Again and again………
Who…
Sometimes 
Nearly all the time
Sometimes
I wanna scream
Nearly all the time
I wanna scream
Again and again ...

Don't you worry baby, it'll all be fine
Don’t you worry baby, it's gonna be alright

I’m in control
Yeah, I’m in control
Sometimes
Don’t you worry
Don’t you worry baby, it’s gonna be fine
Nearly all the time

This is probably the last track for the Ancillary Justice soundtrack. It's also an alternative soundtrack for Jon Mupasi's mesmerising 8-hour video, albeit just three and half minutes...  I guess you could put it on repeat! Haha! It's on YouTube and mossandfog.com - Worth a look, I promise!

Spaced Out And Legless

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

This is unapologetically inspired by the A-side to one of my favorite albums of all time. I'll let you guess which album that is - if you are older than 50 it will most likely be easier.

A lot of us spend our lives chasing a dream, and despite reaching milestone after milestone the dream is always just beyond our reach. If you're lucky all you need to do is stop and think - maybe you're already there. I was reminded about this when told a story about a popular beach boatman asked by a hedge fund manager why he doesn't invest in an additional boat. After many questions the investor tells him that after years he could become so financially successful that he could spend his afternoons with his family and friends. The boatman tells him that after his morning fishing run that is already what he does. 

The guitar is a Logic Pro X Heavy Metal Guitar. For the drums I "mixed it up" a bit by using more reverb on the snare than on the rest of the drums. Also had a hi-hat in there initially but I took it out as I thought it muddied up the sound too much. In general I debated how much reverb to use and progressively used less and less to try and warm it up. For the bass I combined an electric bass with a traditional standing base. I departed from my usual approach of trying to reproduce as natural a piano sound as possible by using equalization to mainly remove some of the high and low end - the purpose being to create a "lo-fi" sound. Finally, the synth is Nord Native and treated with some ringshift to get the moving in and out your ears effect.  

LATELY MAYBE

Too much
Not enough
Will I ever
Is it never
I can’t see
Will it ever be

Lately, I’ve been thinking too much
Lately, I’ve been dreaming too much
Maybe, I’m in heaven
Maybe, I made it yesterday

Is this the end
Or could it be the beginning
I can’t tell
It seems a bit like hell
So many moving parts
So many false starts

Lately, I’ve been thinking too much
Lately, I’ve been dreaming too much
Maybe, I’m in heaven
Maybe, I made it yesterday

Too much
Not enough
Lately
Maybe
Lately it’s been too much
Maybe it’s been too much

Lately Maybe

Et med naturen

Only three years late, party long finished. I came across this on my old hard drive and thought it right to post it now. One of many I intended to finish but have left the chisel marks visible

Original here https://soundcloud.com/learningtoplay/out-there-somewhere and much more to enjoy 

Fantastic experimental guitar noises and sounds form the backcloth. Beats from lincolnproduction. Vocals and additional guitars by me.

Anything wrong with right now? It is sometimes easy to fall into the trap of thinking  that everything was better before, especially as a parent. Thought I'd look up some statistics and see how things stack up vs around 30 years ago. Turns out violent crime is down by over 50% since a high in the early 90s - property crime is also down by 40% - of course there is nothing about that meaning we shouldn't strive to improve further and try to get back to the even lower rates in the 60s. Like the crime rate, the poverty rate fluctuates a lot, but in 1990 it was estimated that 13.5% of the US population lived under the poverty line whereas in 2021 it had been reduced by 14% to 11.6%. In this song I have focused a bit on hard to measure things like the choices a lot of people have today compared to before, in terms of finding their own path vs being set on a path by parents and, importantly, the choice to love who you want. So, we are safer, less poor and have more freedom, but overall happiness levels in the US are apparently at the lowest level in 50 years. Given that the US is predominately a middle class society this might be explained by a fifty year trend of increasing income inequality. The wealthy and poor are better off economically but for a very large swath of the US population things have become more difficult. Clearly there are things to work on. Nevertheless, in many ways, especially with a longer perspective we are so much better off today vs before. 

THIS TIME

Talk about the past
About early and late
What might happen

They say it was better 
You gotta watch your watch
Soon it’ll all pass you by

Why can’t you be like them
Perfect, always
Right there, right now

I feel it, I need it
I feel it, l need it, I’ve got it 
I feel it, I need it, I’ve got it, I want it, I love it
Love

In this time black or white
I could choose a boy
I think I’ll choose a girl

At this time or any other  time
I choose, I choose what to say
I think, I don’t have to care

For this time I might be there
I could change my mind
I think I’ll change my mind, yeah

Right now
I feel it, I need it
Right now
I feel it, l need it, I’ve got it 
I feel it, I need it, I’ve got it, I want it, I love it
Love

Yeah, oh yeah....

In this time
At this time
For this time

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

A lot going on in this song. The original idea was to take the idea of ostinato to the extreme. This was accomplished by using an arpeggiated Eb throughout - of course there was some work that went into the modulation and envelope of the synth I chose. I used the same synth varying the number of notes and direction of the arpeggios to get the sounds that define the track. 

In music, an ostinato (Italian: [ostiˈnaːto]; derived from Italian word for stubborn, compare English obstinate) is a motif or phrase that persistently repeats in the same musical voice, frequently in the same pitch. Well-known ostinato-based pieces include classical compositions such as Ravel's Boléro and the Carol of the Bells, and popular songs such as Donna Summer and Giorgio Moroder's "I Feel Love" (1977), Henry Mancini's theme from Peter Gunn (1959), The Who's "Baba O'Riley" (1971), and The Verve's "Bitter Sweet Symphony" (1997).[WikiPedia]

Lyrically I wanted to capture the hysteria of the Chinese balloon while addressing the fact that many of us voluntarily allow ourselves to be monitored by the government and private enterprises. We pay for Google Assistants, Alexa, Siri etc and I think I'm not the only that get's the AI saying it didn't understand after periods of absolute silence. It is also a known fact that private enterprises monitor our e-mails and we voluntarily sign up for this  - who knows who is analyzing and parsing that information. I have worked for decades in the telecommunications business and for those that don't know there is a feature called "Lawful Intercept" that all suppliers are obliged to enable - this allows authorities to listen in on any communication they deem fit. Lastly, while using free services like Facebook we allow the monitoring of our habits, many of us with a grudge, but still we allow it, and social media is becoming more and more pervasive so it seems we want more.

SHAKE THE FEELING 

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

Sometimes you feel like
Someone is listening
Hear voices in your head
Sometimes you feel like
Someone can see you
Looming over your shoulder

It’s not the first time
It’s not the second time
It’s not the last time, no

High and low
In and out

Can’t shake the feeling
Runs through your body
High and low
Can’t shake the feeling
A drug in your mind
In and out

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

Sometimes you can hear
A stranger in your house
And you spent all your money
Sometimes think you know
A machine is reading
You signed the dotted line

Sometimes you’re afraid
A lawful intercept
You voted for them
All the time you don’t care
They’re recording you
Nothing is for free

Can’t shake the feeling
I never ever wanted this
High and low
Can’t shake the feeling
Why can’t I say no
In and out

Can’t shake the habit
It’s my addiction
Ask for more
Can’t shake the feeling
I don’t want to
I want more

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

Sorry I didn't quite get that

 THE BUS by Jeff gardiner

Get on the bus get on the bus, Get on the bus wlth us
c'mon c'mon get on the bus
There's Gus, who drives the bus and he does Everything for us
He's got the peddle down--

and all the band and larry mary sid and johnny too and that's to jjust to name a few
and all of you who have the eyes and ears to hear and see-
all of us are on that bus Telepathically
so you had better be ln the vicinity of the bus
whose designated destination ls infinity and all points ln between

Believe you me, there ls no comfort or relief ln Clarity
Truer words were never spoken and even though we're all broken
here's a little token of the love l'm feeling for the instant beauty of the moment

Everyone ls psychedelic from those purple Mlcrodots
Fuel ls burning under stars so bright
on the bus, 10 feet off the ground
blacktop slippin under us at half the speed of light

Now lt comes flowln down, lt washes over me
something l can hear, but l can't exactly see-
Cans are Blarin, l'm just starin
hearin things we can't believe

music soothin, lt's not Taxing so relaxing
making music with some friends of mine
making noises so Delightful-
on the bus, where betrayal ls the only thing
that's not allowed
Come along, you're all invited to ride the bus with us
get on the bus get on the bus
c'mon get on the bus
don't make a Fuss
Just get on the bus

A story of an unfortunate drift off to sea ...  it all ends well albeit after some delirium.

Many thanks to Scott for sending me the drum track which inspired this tune.

A little bit of old school music made with my 4-track that I leave alone more and more, because it is tired (playback heads and recording out of order) and to find some? It's got a lot of miles on it, but it's pretty damn solid, made to last!!!

where is my mary?
your secrets are buried here 
this air is heavy 
ash like confetti dear 

tempted by torment 
it spreads through the cement here 
i look for where you went 
each step to the descent dear 

this town is demented 
i feel this connection here
and all i've regretted 
has the streets infected dear

where will i find you?
your skin is burned and charred 
let me remind you 
i'm the reason you're scarred 

where is my mary?
your secrets are buried here 
this air is heavy 
ash like confetti dear 

tempted by torment 
it spreads through the cement here 
i look for where you went 
each step to the descent dear

WHERE IS MY MARY? (SILENT HILL) SLOWED prod. kinsei

Thanks for visiting. This is a retro eclectic music mix with a strong keyboard base.  Looming influences from among others Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Lou Reed & Jon Lord. The songs are mostly about the human condition.

I am always looking for a guitar player that wants to collaborate. Would be fun to find a real drummer also.

A Gat is a cat in Catalan - it all makes sense if you’re me.

To all of you likers and reposters that don't listen - what's the point?
