Verse 1
What if I smiled at strangers passing on the street
Stopped to help the ones I meet
Made the lonely days feel sweet

What if I listened close when someone shared their pain
Spent the time to entertain
Took them dancing in the rain

Verse 2
What if I gave my time to lift a neighbor’s day
Shared a meal along the way
Helped the worries drift away

What if we all believed a change could still be made
Planting seeds where we stayed
Let the kindness never fade

Chorus
Shine, and let the goodness inside you show
Keep smiling
Shine, and help the rivers of love flow on
Forever

Verse 3
What if I held the door for those with heavy hands
Listened more to understand
Walked together through the land

What if we took the time to see through others’ eyes
Learn that love will always rise
Like a thousand morning skies

Verse 4
What if we chose to speak the words that heal and mend
Built a bridge from end to end
Made a stranger feel a friend

What if our little acts could spark a brighter flame
Show the world it’s not the same
When we choose to care by name

Chorus
Shine, and let the goodness inside you show
Keep smiling
Shine, and help the rivers of love flow on
Forever

Bridge
Step in close
When the world feels tired and broke
Help them find the way

Chorus
Shine, and let the goodness inside you show
Keep smiling
Shine, and help the rivers of love flow on
Forever

Shine

This week’s Slumber Session comes from someone who’s name is not only perfectly fitting but who’s hazy dreamlike music had is in such trance we knew there was no way we could pass up the opportunity to have her grace the slumber session series.

Dreamboy is the audiovisual project of the Canadian musician and singer/songwriter Esther Isabel Munits. The lady of many talents moved to Montréal in 2012 and quickly teamed up with producer Ben Borden (Solar Year) to work on her debut EP Negative Feelings and now after a tour assets up for her follow up EP, Endings. The release is a deep blend of country, gospel, hip hop and jungle influences that come together so form a wavey cut that we can’t get enough of.

Without further ado, its time to drift off into dreamland with none other than Dreamboy. Press play.

Summer isn't over - Allah-Las took over our Freak Terrain feed for a few hours of sun-soaked jams.

Freak Terrains w/ Allah-Las - August 20, 2016

from 'Evighetsblomma': https://purl.bandcamp.com/album/evighetsblomma

'uncovered some 
glimmering remnants of a past life 
in a long forgotten part of 
my garden of sounds 
didn't want to bury them and 
forget them forever 
so dusted them off 
to let them tell their fragmented tales 
of dreams long gone 
indefinable longing 
and wonder'

Giuliano Sorgini – OCCULTO
LP

Two years after the stunning Africa Oscura, Four Flies Records is back with another gem from Giuliano Sorgini’s secret archives, this time one which unearths some of his darkest, eeriest music – that is, pieces he composed in the mid-70s for some of the most infamous, low-budget horror movies ever made in Italy.
This collection brings together a selection of original recordings from those movies, which were directed by “Italian Kings of the B’s” Angelo Pannacciò, Salvatore Bugnatelli, Luigi Batzella, and Guido Zurli, who are among the kings of Italian B-movies, and with whom the Roman composer worked intensively throughout the 70s.
Due to the very low-budget nature of the films, Sorgini, recorded the soundtracks entirely on his own, in his Cat & Fox Studio in Rome. He played drums and percussions and added overlapping layers of analogue synths to create a superbly sinister soundscape, thus turning a constraint into an opportunity.
The result is a journey into the mysterious atmospheres of the Italian occult-sounding music of the time, something very close to the dark electronic masterpieces that made Sorgini famous, such as Zoo Folle or The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue.
Occulto features ten previously unreleased tracks characterized by enigmatic moods, obscure beats and esoteric themes. All tracks are taken from original master tapes that remained buried in the composer’s archives for decades.
The LP comes in a deluxe jacket and inner sleeve designed by Luca Barcellona.

03 - Giuliano Sorgini - Telecinesi

Le Discograph est un rendez vous qui a lieu 4 fois dans l'année à La Passerelle, scène nationale de Saint-Brieuc avec pour chaque soirée une thématique.

Parfois omniprésente, toujours essentielle, la musique de films est un art délicat : elle se doit d’accompagner avec finesse et caractère les images à l’écran. Mais au-delà de son apport esthétique, c’est un langage à part entière, au fort pouvoir émotionnel sur le spectateur.

S’appuyant sur des morceaux spécialement composés pour des bandes originales de films, Julien Tiné nous propose une sélection de ses thèmes musicaux préférés. C'est pour la musique elle-même ou par amour des films - et bien souvent les deux ! - que les choix se sont faits. Des compositeurs tels qu'Ennio Morricone, Philippe Sarde ou Vladimir Cosma auraient pu valoir à eux seuls un mix, les B.O. de films de genre tels que les films d'horreur ou la blaxploitation également.

On peut se perdre assez vite dans cet univers alors… laissez-vous aller à cette B.O. imaginaire !
