Nice work.  Heavy without needing to be loud.

Nice tune Art!  Jeez SC never alerts me to new tunes from you, and you've put out quite a few lately. Will check them out.

Vocal Copyright Nat Daniels 2022
Lyrics and Melodic Composition Copyright Andy Hall & Gary Brown
Produced by Andy Hall

I was thrilled when Andy and Gaz invited me along on this collaboration.  The Lyrics are beautifully written and sung by Gaz and lends itself to great story telling. It was lovely to join him and to bring my creative spirit in harmonisation to the table.  Andy wrote the beautiful melody and created the gorgeous Instrumental track (which has a hauntingly beautiful Guitar solo) and then brought it All to life with his incredible Production / Mixing skills, breathing life into the song,  and giving it a depth of sound to make it "sparkle".

Lyrics:
Our Devine intervention - Gary Brown and Andy Hall.

Standing on the bridge
Staring into the water
(I’ve kept you waiting
An hour and a quarter )
My Head tells me to leave
My hearts a little more naive
(We’ve had 27 days apart
To rekindle this flagging heart )

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To were I love being yours
And you love being mine
Our Devine intervention
Needs to work for us this time

V2
Finally you arrive in your own chaotic style
(So my car went and broke down
And i walk the last 3 miles)
I get the big puppy eyes
And a cute little sorry sigh
(What lies beneath in this rivers deep
Are the same things in the
secrets we keep)

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To were I love being yours
And you love being mine
Our Devine intervention
Needs to work for us this time

V3
(Let’s stand back to back
Walk in a different direction)
If we just keep right on walking
Then we have lost all affection
(If we both look back and then we stop
We won’t lose what we’ve got)
Well I stopped and looked back
(I kept walking down the path)

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To we’re I loved being yours
And you loved being mine
Our Devine intervention
At least we know now this time

Slave To The Device - Music & Lyrics by REKHA - IYERN [Fe] 

Slave to the device
I'm a slave to the device
Slave to the device, slave
I am a slave to the device 
And that is right

Friction, a false sense of addiction
Friction, a false sense of addiction
Friction, friction, more friction
Never ending friction
A false sense of addiction

I'm a a slave to the device
Slave to the device, I am
A slave to the device, a mere slave
That's right, I am a slave to the device

Hop, Hop, Hop, Hop
Hop, Hop, Hop, Hop

Slave, slave, I'm just a slave
To the device, that's right

A slave to the device, I am
A slave to the device, I am
A mere rotten slave to the device

Messing with my mind, with my mind
A slave to the device
Hop, Hop, Hop, Hop
A slave to the device
I am a slave to the device, that's right, that's right
A rotten slave to the device
I am a mere slave, to the device

Georgia On My Mind

A Fifties era rock & roll heartthrob has his heart broken for the first time...
From the EP "Smilers"
Lyrics:
I had to fall in love with the girl of my dreams
The girl that lets you understand
What the universe means
But then she up & broke my heart
She tore me apart at the seams
She just looked at me and said
"Do you think you have a monopoly on tears?"
Monopoly on tears

I was the last
Self actualized Man 
Walking on planet earth
I took her up to "promise" hill
Looking for a thrill
Monopoly on tears

Wolfman Jack he won't console me
And the songs on the radio
You know, they just start to bore me
You know I could be your hard luck sock hop puppet
(All the ways I could..)
I could be your Cadillac fins
I could be your suburban underground bomb shelter best friend
You don't have a monopoly on tears
Monopoly on tears

Monopoly On Tears

"Moods 'n Waves"

They say different moods come in waves, and that was something I had in mind when making this song! Also if you listen carefully, you may recognize a familiar sound or two:) 

I used two virtual instruments here: the synth lead, bass and the keyboard all come from Arturia Mini-V (emulating the ever-so-lovely classic Minimoog synthesizer), and the drum track was programmed mainly with the EG Pulse drum machine/sampler for iOS, using the 707 drum kit.

This was played using a 37-key Korg microKEY Air midi keyboard as a midi controller. Don't ask what the chords are.. I have no idea:) I just started stacking voices and chords on top of each other and this is where I landed. 

Recorded and mixed in Cubase using iZotope Neutron. Mastered with iZotope Ozone.
 
Have a nice weekend!

Hello Sound Clouders! 
I hope you are all well and safe in these very difficult times.
