Cool rock track, I like the sax passages, very nice acoustic guitar, great vocals!

Love the writing on this song, very good production too!

Sixth track on a loose concept album I did for the RPM challenge 11 years ago. Our protagonist now leads a group of survivors and speaks to the better aspects of ourselves that we need to embrace in order to rebuild a better society. 

We have destroyed society though some horrific mechanism, perhaps nuclear war, and our protagonist travels the wasteland with his guitar looking for other musicians, hope and a chance for some of us to start anew. I used a pretty convoluted recording process, but I like the songs, I hope you do too.

The Pact

Asleep

Rock And A Hard Place

I start a new project from scratch. I try to mix my progressive rock influences with electronic sound to create a kind of original mix. It is quite difficult to select a specific genre for me but I hope to create a good feeling to my listener.

Miracle - Lyrics

I have been trying to hide what you did to me
I still can believe, what you did to me, what you did to me,  but WHY?

You been trying to hide what you did to me, but you know is true, what I felt before, WHAT?

I can´t pretend we aren´t hurt
We need a miracle to save our love
why can´t we pretend our love, when it was so beautiful, you left it aside 

I am wearing this mask now just to hide the true, that you never knew, you didnt have a clue    

Can you tell me, why you are acting so creep crazy, mother fucker, stop pretending, that you didn´t do what? tell me ! mother fucker

I can´t pretend we aren´t hurt
You need a miracle to save your life


I can afford to loose it all again, don´t let me fall again, I don´t even have a friend, CRY!
I am too proud to even start to crawl to you, have I lost my mind, did I commit a crime? shit shit! 

We can´t pretend we aren´t hurt
We need a miracle to save our love
Why can´t we pretend our love, when it was so beautiful, you left it aside 

Why?

Miracle

One of my heavier tracks...little experiment

Dark Quest

Heart Attack shatters everything with "Destruction."  Djent riffs splinter into a million pieces, reassembling into a distorted reflection of our reality. A djent experience where the familiar crumbles and the monstrous emerges.  "Destruction" isn't just an album - it's a glitch in the simulation, a djent exploration of the fragility of existence.

Ritual

Train Conductor is a dynamic psychedelic rock band hailing from the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico. Formed in 2011, this talented group of musicians has been captivating audiences with their mind-bending soundscapes and electrifying performances. Drawing inspiration from bands such as Frankie and Witch Fingers, OSees, Moon Duo, and King Gizzard and Lizard Wizard, Train Conductor has crafted a unique and enthralling musical style that pushes the boundaries of the genre. With a seamless blend of trippy melodies, soaring guitar riffs, and mesmerizing rhythms, Train Conductor takes listeners on a sonic journey that transcends traditional rock music. Their dreamy, atmospheric soundscapes transport audiences to otherworldly realms, while their infectious grooves get bodies moving. Last year, the band embarked on a successful tour to California, captivating audiences with their high-energy performances and leaving a lasting impression wherever they went. Currently, Train Conductor is hard at work on their upcoming project, "Tongue Blanket." This highly anticipated endeavor promises to further push the boundaries of their psychedelic rock sound and deliver an even more immersive musical experience. The band has recently completed recording a horn section for their recent single “Common Crayon”. As they continue to push boundaries and captivate audiences with their mesmerizing sound, there is no doubt that Train Conductor is poised to leave an indelible mark on the world of music.
