Why did you smile
when I told you that I lied
Why did you run
when I tried to ask you why

must let it go
I don’t know
if I can do this anymore

thoughts erase
out of place
never wanting for more

Die Trying

https://pateticorecordings.bandcamp.com/track/la-ca-da 
Tom Lugo, the singer-songwriter of indie-rock music influenced by the sound of shoegaze and post punk, brings us a new song in Spanish entitled "La Caída". The track has an atmosphere of grief, introspection and subtle aggressiveness delivered with passive restraint and acceptance. Floating in the verses and teething in the chorus with a fixed bass and a progressive rhythm that takes them to the end, epic and transcendental.
An expansive and lonely flight. While enjoying every minute in the fall from grace and having to leave the normal behind.
Tom Lugo, el cantautor de música indie-rock influenciado por el sonido del shoegaze y el post punk, nos trae una nueva canción en español titulada "La Caída". La pista tiene una atmósfera de dolor, introspección y agresividad sutil entregada con moderación pasiva y aceptación. Flotantes en los versos y dentición en los coros con un bajo fijo y un ritmo progresivo que los lleva hasta el final, épico y trascendental.
Un vuelo expansivo y solitario. Mientras se disfruta de cada minuto en la caída en desgracia y tener que dejar atrás la normalidad.
lyrics
Injusticia
cometida
a quien vamos a creer
Las mentiras
prometidas
aqui vamos a voler
a la trampa a caer
Es como volar
caer por la eternidad
Es como volar
la realidad olvidar
La caida
hay que vida
tan vacia y tan cruel
muerto el fuego
que comsumia
un pedazo de mi ser
mejor de lo que era ayer
Es como volar
caer por la eternidad
Es como volar
la realidad olvidar

Panophonic- Eye For An Eye

New track by Philly indie rocker Tom Lugo.
I was never right
I was blind so blind
I’ve reached new heights, the past outgrown
I’ve seen the lights, I can’t come home
I can't come home

I can’t go home
It’s all dead and gone

Of all I lost sight
And I lost my mind

I’ve reached new heights, the past outgrown
I’ve seen the lights, I can’t come home
I can't come home

I can’t go home
It’s all dead and gone

Todo tiene su lugar

Quiero despertar… Sueno sin final

Panophonic- I Can't Come Home (Beatastic Remix)

New demo track by philly indie-pop-nugaze artist Tom Lugo aka Panophonic

Searching for home in the stars at night
No one can see me sending signals toward the lights
Then you came into my life

With you,
Our skies are always blue
The world is in full view
Nothing that we can’t do

Will spend a lifetime looking into your eyes
Making wishes to stop the hands of time
Don’t ever want to let this die

With you,
Our skies are always blue
The world is in full view
Nothing that we can’t do

Panophonic- Nothing That We Can’t Do

From the album AWAKENING (2021) Patetico Recordings) https://pateticorecordings.bandcamp.com/album/awakening

Never thought life could be this sweet
All that I am I lay at your feet

No longer raining in my heart and soul
Gee, I love you more than you will ever know
Never gonna let this go

I swear I’m never gonna let you down
something this perfect 
 rarely comes around


My heart beating deep in the clouds
Saying the words I wouldn’t speak aloud.

No longer raining in my heart and soul
Gee, I love you more than you will ever know
Never gonna let this go

I swear I’m never gonna let you down
something this perfect 
 rarely comes around

Panophonic -Never Gonna Let This Go

MAYU - THEIA

Debut song by Heliocentric Overdrive titled "By a thread" now available for download. Heliocentric Overdrive was born from the isolation of the Covid 19 pandemic so we found it befitting to write our first song about the feelings of isolation and not losing hope for our futures. https://pateticorecordings.bandcamp.com/track/by-a-thread
lyrics
Don’t know how to respond
everything is wrong
Want no more of this
are we too far gone?

not knowing how to feel
Are the fates all sealed?
Feels like a painting
time is waiting
while we’re standing still

We all know
what we’re hiding from
by a thread
we are hanging on
To all your hopes please hold on

It’s moving like a wave
trying to be brave
waiting for the crash
planning your escape

no way of knowing when
it will come to an end
the isolation, the desolation
that’s driving you insane


We all know
what we’re hiding from
by a thread
we are hanging on
To all your hopes please hold on

Heliocentric Overdrive- By A Thread

Second single by Philadelphia's indie-pop band Heliocentric Overdrive
Dedicated to all those explorers pushing the boundaries of human space exploration!
lyrics
Counting down
A million thoughts
now hold on
for dear life
cleared for launch
all systems go
the instruments
all come to life
final checks
ready for launch
t-minus zero
time to blast off
rocket thrust
it lifts off
Shake, Vibrate, accelerate

Ripping through the atmosphere
feel the thrill of being here
weightless, floating in space.

Out in space
traveling fast
exceed the limits
while hoping that
these very moments
forever last
so many dangers
but can’t look back

going further
than anyone
take precautions
but follow none
of the our steps
we leave the trace
Shake, Vibrate, accelerate

Ripping through the atmosphere
feel the thrill of being here
weightless, floating in space.

Stellarscope - Overblown This trio make shoegaze of the noisy variety; something which is gradually being sanded away by the new generation of dreamy gazers. So a good old maelstrom of guitars and an injection of whatever stuff got Lance Armstrong around France really quickly is what we're given. You could call it fuzz-rock if you like, but this is the same sort of sonic assault that saw post-punk get overhauled in the late '80s to create a brand new noise. thesoundofconfusionblog.blogspot.co.uk/2013/05/stellarscope-overblown.htmlStellarscope is a three piece alternative band with psychedelic influences hailing from Philadelphia
