SAVAMASULI

A few years back Dan X2 posted this song. Little did we know..... welcome to 2020.  So with a few changes here and there, here is some Chaos...
Lyrics;
The news is gonna tell you 
They've nothing good to say
But I think that you should hear it 
Before you try to get away
I fire up the conflicts
For all the world to see 
Just to make a point 
That's meaningless to me

I'm Running with the riot 
But I never choose a side
Cause Anarchy's my brother
I am Chaos. I'm your guide

I am here to share the violence
I am Here to share the hate
Crush the bleeding hearts 
With Fear and Anger's weight 

No justice means no peace 
Another damaged cause
They're screaming from the street
While breaking all the laws

The news is gonna tell you 
They've nothing  good to say
And Nothing's gonna save you
You will never get  away

Sticks and stones will break your bones
The rage is climbing higher 
Breaking glass and kicking ass
And TV fans the fire

Don't worry bout the cops 
Don't worry bout the law
You're gonna make a statement  
With some urban shock and awe

Tired of the government 
Down with the status quo
Those guys who got the money
Yeah Those guys have got to go

I'm Running with the riot 
I never to choose a side
Cause Anarchy's my brother
I am Chaos. I'm your guide

Somewhere

My daughter and I made this melody. It was kind of “formal “ song. I arranged this as “funny” one this time and she was not quite happy at first.  But I beg her and beg her and beg her, finally she said OK to release this and did the drawing for this.

We play the music that comes to us.  Much of our music has a basis in blues and rock.  Although we venture into other musical territory.  You will find hints of jazz, country, bluegrass, soul, classical, and other music in our songs.  We have a number of songs that change time signatures and pace.

When we first started recording we called ourselves Dan and Dan. 
 You can find our music under that moniker here:
https://soundcloud.com/user-590884876

We stopped using the name Dan and Dan's because there were to many other Dan's using that name.  If you google Dan and Dan we would not show up.  We believe that Dan X2 to be a moniker that we could own.   If you google Dan X2 we are right at the top,

We have a music making process that fits our unique skills.  We each do the parts that best fit our skills and interests.  Dan Lockhart does the initial song development.  Dan Blackard writes the lyrics, perform the vocals, and adds lead guitar.  Dan Lockhart then takes the track and do all final production (mixing and mastering).

Dan Lockhart writes all of the chords, timing, changes, and develops the track.  I then send two tracks to Dan Blackard.  One track has Dan L. describing the song.  Tell him the key, the timing, and any oddities about the song (changing keys or time signature...).  In the track Dan L tell Dan B verbally where is the verse, chorus, bridge and any other important information.

Dan Lockhart then send a second track that does not have this verbal dialogue.  This is called the instrumental track.  This is a track to which Dan B. can sing and add his parts.  Dan Blackard then returns  four pieces to Dan L:  a complete version of the song, a solo track of his vocals, a solo track of his guitar parts, and the artwork to accompany the song.

Dan Lockhart add his information into the original file.  Dan L. listen to it and make changes to the song to enhance the meaning of the lyrics. He sometimes adds instruments or takes away some instruments.  As Dan L. play many instruments (guitar, keyboards, banjo, mandolin, pedal steel, violin, viola...), he can make a lot of adjustments.    On rare occasions he move pieces about.  Dan Lockhart then masters it and prepare it for final production.
