The high life 

She steals the breath out of me
When all I want to do is sin 
I’m leaving the good to the rest 
I’ve been before and I will again 

 Cant do anything without her
Well nothing unless you stay in 
No electricity or power 
Live off the fat of the land 

To keep a life of influence and pride 
I’m in where do I stand ? 
Show me where I can find ? 

She appeals to the rebel in me 
When I wanna go against the grain 
My grip on reality 
Is starting to show the strain 

To live,  a life,  of influence and pride 
I’m in, where do I stand ? 
Show me where, I can find ? 

The high life 
It’s Now or never 
Alright 
Can we get it together 
So nice 
Won’t be forever 
I’m here for the pain 
So I’ll stay for whatever

The High Life

on the road from Maribor to Bamberg I noticed a sign that said Quellverkehr - sounded like an interesting title for a synth-based instrumental. Hope you enjoy. Downloadable CC BY.

Lyrics:
You only love me when I
Do what you want me to 
Got this weight on my shoulder
Don’t want to be a martyr

Blooms in full flourish
Fold away at night
Out in summer air
Out in summer air

Can we talk about the fact that
You want to be free
You’re capable at any time
Break your bonds and run away

What you’re giving, only some of
What I want to take
Take it all for myself
Life turns on a dime

Blooms in full flourish
Fold away at night
Out in summer air
Out in summer air

Can we talk about the fact that
You want to be free
You’re capable at any time
Break your bonds and run away

You out in summer air
Prowling in my garden
Turn my back, you run away
Don’t know what you’ll encounter

You only love me when I
Do what you want me to 
Got this weight on my shoulder
Don’t want to be a martyr

Blooms in full flourish
Fold away at night
Out in summer air
Out in summer air

Life can turn on a dime
Turn on a dime
Life can turn on a dime

Blooms In Full Flourish

I couldn't resist revisiting my tilt at this 1980's classic from The Korgis, now with Rick!

Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime - The Korgis

Change your heart
Look around you
Change your heart
It will astound you
I need your lovin'
Like the sunshine

And everybody's gotta learn sometime
Everybody's gotta learn sometime
Everybody's gotta learn sometime

Yea ea eah

Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime

Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime II

This track is the lead track from my 8th Ep CHEMICAL. 123 BPM. 3m40s. The genres are Big beat / Electronic rock / Breakbeat. The most relevant genre is Big beat. The moods are Energetic / Intense / Aggressive. The style is Beat music. Everything by myself. Heavily influenced by 90s UK Dance music. The similar artists are The Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy. The intense and aggressive chorus part is a highlight (The impressive sound effects in the chorus part are made from my voice). The beat and Lo-fi Hip hop piano are also unique features of this track. This is energetic and aggressive, so this is for rock audiences, suitable for outdoor and loud. CHEMICAL Link in Bio!

DEAD SYMPHONY

Well hello. Here’s some rustic Mountain Blues, played on extremely oxidized guitar strings, with me hollering from the mountain top. Hahahaha. The song hints at a personal authenticity, and the experience of possibly unraveling any prior conditioning (Pavlovian or otherwise) that may constrict our lives in some way. It’s also about the different personas we portray to the outside world. How we may act at work, or on a first date, or with our spouse, or kids, friends, enemies, those who hurt us, even our stage personas comes into play…. So this song is asking a lot of us. In other news, right now in June, the mountains are snow covered and it froze last night. That is late spring, early summer here. Gardenwise, this year, I am planting a lot more Brassicas: Kale, Cabbage and Broccoli, and they are growing well. I am going to try to fence off the carrot/beet beds, as the voles always eat more carrots and beets than I ever do. Onions, leeks and garlic have been growing since March. I transplanted 50 lettuce plants I grew from seed that I saved from last year’s lettuce. The berry bushes and fruit trees have really blossomed this year. There are squash, cukes, tomato and pepper plants inside by the window, to be transplanted outside next week, quite a mess… all of which keeps me busy…. Hahaha. Thanks for dropping by, hope you’re well, Mark

'Round Here'

NIN

Thanks lads
You're still the bar
Trent at 60
Many more years fill stages far
A forever reference in my head
From heavy to light
Lyrical love brain bed
Some friends don't dig your music but love your words
Proper heresy
Transcendence of blur

Keep it together
We want more Hurt
Yeah Cash took it,
But it's always your worth
This is something I can have
I will find that stage
I got Reznor rasp
You gave me growl and finesse
Closer to God within my chest

Ruiner of my negative side
Head was a hole
Ego tamed from pride
A Warm Place
You fill these moments
Like Buckley Grace
I'm music moulded
Into the Void for all our sakes
Lyrical real washes away the fakes

I bite the hand that feeds us lies
I almost Gave Up
But, still Wish for prize
It's you man
You kept me going
You're amazing music
Keeps BD flowing
Never say never
Churned love from rage
Maybe someday we'll share a stage


Music notes
-Drive in frets 0-6 and get 6 power in there

-Drop D to deliver the heavy

-Chromatic chords movements for a Rage Against the Machine like energy


Instrumentation
-Guitar & Bass heavy for main parts of song

-Piano part, maybe a softer ending and or intro to honour that contrast NIN give us so amazingly

-Eerie synth pads especially at the start bringing in a cool wind filled start making it linked to nature / season

-Set tuning to 444Hz and consider Capo on 2 to get that E 333Hz root which can represent harmony with the Suns average frequency. Also consider finding a drone like deep bass sound with octaves lower of this so we should find that at 166.5Hz @ see if 83.25Hz is usable at all

-consider setting up a synth to create a spiral effect with panning and pitch shifting to honour the Downward Spiral

-Use breaking glass effect to honour The Fragile. Maybe make this a positive flip by using a reversed breaking of glass effect making something that's impossible at least possible in sound. That can be a powerful metaphor

- Add a Machine sound of some kind to honour Pretty hate Machine. Tie this machine sound to the reverse effected glass breaking effect and tie that positivity to the hope we keep machines & technology under a better control collectively

- Maybe consider actually saying Nine Inch Nails in a chorus of some kind. They're amazing influence should be clear and celebrated and help transcend the assumption that NIN music is just noise and negative when the complete opposite is actually true

NIN (Poem ~ Song = Nailed)

Lost In A Whirlwind.

Where angels dare to fall and demons learn to dance, Feathers and Flames sets fire to the line between heaven and hell. Driven by a swaggering Volbeat-inspired groove, this track blends pounding riffs, upright-bass swagger, and a sing-along chorus that drips with temptation.

The story: a forbidden love between a runaway angel and a devil-born outlaw. Neon wings, whiskey lips, and thunder-kissed promise; all tangled in a dance that neither heaven nor hell can stop.

This is outlaw rock with a gospel sneer, a shot of old-school rockabilly set ablaze with modern fire. If you like your romance loud, dangerous, and lit by lightning, this one’s for you.

Feathers and Flames

Here you can listen to my demo versions of the songs I made for the band. Hopefully one day we'll get music made in the studio.
