Your Mix 9

dark folk / lo-fi / gauzy 
James Bracken cut his teeth as a sideman lending his soulful vibrato and rhythm playing to Ian Hilmer’s Stagefright, an alternative string band from southern MN. The band performed extensively regionally, steadily gaining grassroots momentum circulating live bootlegs but never releasing an album, which ultimately ended the band and each of the members went on to front their own project.  

Several hundred bar gigs later a fortuitous connection with Rochester producer Fires of Denmark led to a productive series of recording sessions documenting Bracken’s expansive catalog and tracking a brand new batch of songs set to be released as Echo Messenger.

LYRICS

Living times
Lifetime's gone,
Crisp at dawn
Mellowed by the sun.

Golden horizon, all at stake,
People arrive at the fray.

No one knows the roots of our past.
No one shows, we've given our best.

Times have come
Times have gone,
Past tense
Is the chosen form.

Till the plain, caught up surrounding 
Our heart, our soul, our own.

No one knows the roots of our past.
It goes to show it's gone too fast.

Shear moonlight through my window.
Riding sideline, drawn-out timeline.
Taste so quaint, virtuoso.
Hello blueprint: unchecked, untried.

See the way
Script what may,
Humbled by the song
Promises go on.

What is this, hold on exist,
Gotta love our land, our smile, our pain.

No one knows the roots of our past.
No one grows enliven the guest.
It goes to show it's gone too fast.
No one knows the roots of our past.

The Roots of Our Past

Composite

[Verse]
Un air de musique
Si doux et magique
Nos chaussons glissent
Sur le parquet lisse

[Verse 2]
On se cogne aux murs
Les rêves flous murmures
Les yeux mi-clos
On danse incognito

[Chorus]
Musique dans nos têtes
Fatigués mais peut-être
Ensemble on s'envole
Dans ce rêve qui console

[Verse 3]
Les notes nous transportent
Les soucis on emporte
On quitte la terre
Pour suivre cet air

[Bridge]
Épuisés mais heureux
Nos pas capricieux
On s’abandonne
La musique raisonne

[Chorus]
Musique dans nos têtes
Fatigués mais peut-être
Ensemble on s'envole
Dans ce rêve qui console

'Twin Flames'

Together under the sun, together against the wind
Together hand in hand, to push the world aside.
Together by the mirror, together by the door.
Together in emptiness, to not count the days.

Together to the peaks, together into the depths of dreams,
Together in music, in the rhythm of hearts and words.
Together on the beach, together among the waves,
Together in the journey, where sorrow doesn't reach.

Together in conversation, together in silence,
Together in closeness, where the heart sways.
Together to conquer the world.
Together in conversation, together in silence,
Together in closeness, where the heart sways.
Together to conquer the world.

Together under the sky, together among the stars,
Together in the garden, where our time blooms.
Together at the table, together among songs,
Together in love, that caresses the heart.

Together in the fields, together among the forests,
Together under a blanket, in these cold days of time.
Together on the streets, together at home,
Together, to bravely face life.

Together on bikes, together on the road,
Together when the world stands at a crossroads.
Together to conquer the world.
Together among memories, together in plans,
Together to find what connects us from dawn till dawn.
Together to conquer the world.

Together in conversation, together in silence,
Together in closeness, where the heart sways.
Together to conquer the world.
Together in conversation, together in silence,
Together in closeness, where the heart sways.
Together to conquer the world.

Bliźniaczy Płomień

Bliźniaczy Płomień (Prod.Matthew May)

Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
'Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, today

I'll be a dandy, and I'll be a rover
You'll know who I am by the songs that I sing
I'll feast at your table, I'll sleep in your clover
Who cares what the morrow shall bring

Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
'Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, today

I can't be contented with yesterday's glory
I can't live on promises winter to spring
Today is my moment, now is my story
I'll laugh and I'll cry and I'll sing

Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
'Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, today

Today

I long to see the light...

Lyric after translation :

**Into Darkness**

Certainty has disappeared, vanished into the night,
In my heart there's chaos, my mind full of dark might.
Dreams crumble under the weight of sorrow,
Life like a labyrinth without an exit, full of rebellion.

Are you coming? With me?
Are you coming? Into darkness?
You're coming. With me.
You're coming. Into darkness.

Anger doesn't pass, darkness keeps me in check
Black clouds overhead, follow me step by step
I feel the breath on my back, of an evil spirit, or a shadow
I don't want to turn into this stone.

I walk on the edge, balancing over the abyss,
At any moment I could fall, engulfed in despair.
Every day a great battle, which I fight alone,
Darkness wraps around me, the light fades irretrievably.

Come on! With me.
Come on! Into darkness.
Come on. With me!
Come on. Into darkness!

I try to scream, but my voice breaks,
I lost my place, stuck in a strange confusion.
Everyone passes by so indifferently,
As if something keeps them far away from me.

Anger doesn't pass, darkness keeps me in check
Black clouds overhead, follow me step by step
I feel the breath on my back, of an evil spirit, or a shadow
I don't want to turn into this stone.

W Ciemność

W Ciemność (Prod. Athomic & Simmi Beats)

Dear friends, there are lots and lots of orphans in the world - and they are getting more and more!!

Hand in hand
You may see them hand in hand 
in snow storms and when thunder raves
they are the poor kids who came from the mountains
They have been walking for several days
They have not any parents at all
they are brother and sister on their own
they are brother and sister on their own

The brother is four years old
and the sister is nine the next year
They are so dirty and their clothes are torn to pieces
The girl is caring so much 
about her little brother in her hand
they are brother and sister on their own
they are brother and sister on their own

Their old parents were victims of
the nasty virus which hit the world now 
and in a moment they have to find a way out
and they must find friendly folks
but now they are referred to each other
she said brother You should not be afraid
cause I love You so much my little friend

Hand in Hand

Can't Live In The Too Pure Water

Emplaze unight

[Verse]
I wrote letters in my mind, they never reached your hands
Every word I thought was a fight against the shame
They built a wall between us with their words
But I heard your heartbeat—I know it still stirs

[Pre-Chorus]
They said the bond was broken, but I still feel it near
An echo of love burning through the fear

[Chorus]
(Faces) lost in a blurry frame
A home I loved, now just a name
I built a bridge, but someone burned it down
I’m here, but you don’t see me around

[Verse]
I saw you waving from a window
But the door never opened for me
Your voice, once safe, now just an echo
Drowning in what someone else said about me

[Pre-Chorus]
They said love was forever, but it feels like a lie
When I stumble in the darkness where my family used to be

[Chorus]
(Faces) lost in a blurry frame
A home I loved, now just a name
I built a bridge, but someone burned it down
I’m here, but you don’t see me around

[Bridge]
Am I a shadow, or is it just a dream?
Can you remember when you held my hand so serene?
I cry to the wind, to every star in the night
Please remember me—I’m the child you left behind

[Chorus]
(Faces) lost in a blurry frame
A home I loved, now just a name
I built a bridge, but someone burned it down
I’m here, but you don’t see me around

[Outro]
I’m here.
Do you see me now?



Lost In A Blurry Frame

They say money can’t buy you happiness, it’s easy to say that when you’re rich
Cause when you have no money, life can be a bitch
If someone gives you a billion dollars, you’d be willing to give it a try
Seems better to be filthy rich than a guy who’s funds are running dry

You looked at your bank account and the money was all spent
And as you poked your toe through a hole in your sock you wonder where it all went
The prices keep getting higher when you go to the grocery store
And then one day you realize that you’re one of the working poor

You feel like a hamster on a wheel
You feel like you got the raw end of the deal

Life keeps handing you lemons and you’re sick trying to make lemonade
And every day your enthusiasm for your job continues to fade
You tell yourself someone’s got to do the dirty work, so the sausages get made
And every day you have a new bill that that needs to be paid

You feel like a hamster on a wheel
You feel like you got the raw end of the deal

You’ve been working so hard but you can’t seem to get ahead
Some days you don’t even feel like getting out of bed
They say that insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result
There’s days when you sit in your cubicle and you want to jump up and bolt

You feel like a hamster on a wheel
You feel like you got the raw end of the deal
The billionaires are doing perfectly okay
And you’re just treading water trying to make it through each day

They say money can’t buy you happiness, it’s easy to say that when you’re rich. 
Cause when you have no money, life can be a bitch
If someone gives you a billion dollars, you’d be willing to give it a try
Seems better to be filthy rich than a guy who’s funds are running dry
