Cast of Characters:
xian3-- @xian3 – vocals, lyrics, and beat programming
Holger Engel—bass
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- guitar, mix, and production
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)-- @josh-clary-1 – lead guitar, organ, and synth
 
This song started when Xian and Holger came up with the rhythm section. Xian reached out to me about adding some guitar and keys. I happily accepted and added some electric guitar, organ, and synth. Once I was done, I sent it back to Xian, who added his excellent vocals. Tez also added some subtle, yet thrilling psychedelic guitar to it, too, before producing and mixing it for us. 
  During a little odyssey Xian recently undertook, he came across this snippet of text, from which the lyrics were drawn, in the Museum of Literature in Dublin. It's from "Ulysses" (1923) by James Joyce (1882-1941) and he liked it immediately. The passage can be found in the episode "Cyclops", in which the novel's hero, Bloom, opposes division and prejudice.
  This is the first time Xian has collaborated with Tez and me, but we hope it won't be the last. Xian is everything we could ask for in a collaborator. He presented me with a really solid, but very open song, let me do my thing, and added more greatness to finish it off. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
Lyrics to Alf And Bloom:

(But it’s no use) …

(- What? says Alf) …     

But it’s no use says he
Force, hatred, history
All that
That’s not life 
For men and women,

(- What? says Alf) …

Insult and hatred
And everybody knows that
It’s the very opposite of that
That is really life.

- What? says Alf
- Love, says Bloom

(- What? says Alf)
(- Love, says Bloom)

(- Love)

Illegal dumping has become a problem everywhere. Too much damn stuff. Contrary to the narrators lyrical viewpoint, this is actually a song about over consumption. 
From the album "Röckers" (2024)

Lyrics:
Dyer Road, Dyer Road
It's where you go to unload
All the stuff that you don't want to own
Out on Dyer Road
In the city's unincorporated zone
It's not the dump
It's the unknown
Out on Dyer, Dyer Road

You've got microwave ovens from 1983
A box spring mattress
A VHS of "The Goonies"
It's an area of ill repute
I swear I saw a chicken wire monkey suit
And that love seat that you bought
But, there was no love to be found
At Christmas, you we're so sad
It made you blue
Because for Christmas she gave you
Counterfeit Jordan shoes
Yeah, get it out there
Dispose of it
On Dyer Road

Dyer Road
You treat the earth like it's something on loan
On Dyer Road
We treat the earth like it's rent to own
Dyer Road

The sign says, "Illegal dumpers, they will be fined."
That's why I always go undercover of the nighttime
The County and the City say they can't agree of jurisdiction and enforcement
So I take my stuff out by the power lines
I found an unopened box of Spearmint Gum
I'm gonna resell it on Amazon
Up my income
I feel kind of dumb for buying all this stuff
Excuse me!
Excuse me!
I've got to dispose of this double kick drum
(Double, double, double kick drum)
Out on Dyer Road

Uh huh, on Dyer Road... (Elvis has left the building)

Lyrics - 

Darkness this void not equaling evil, i am not your toy 
Forever endless thinking of time, rhyme for song
Endless doubts just past gone, hoping not for new ones
Darkness still i belong, god help me pass along. 

Always become, the light 
Always become, goodbye
To Evil and the Devils sight, to evil and the devils rhyme. 

I'm always here always forgotten by myself, i am not you but the you beside yourself
If all us here become one, we will say goodbye to zero.
That which is being the nothingness, keeping you in the dark 
Temples rise as quick as they fall, in my minds eye i contemplate them all.

Always Become The Light Always Become Goodbye to Evil and The Devils Rhyme

A rainbow bridge, a celestial arc,
Connecting heaven and earth, a vibrant spark.
Bridging light and dark, a wonderfull sight,
Painted by droplets, like diamonds so bright.

Oh, rainbow, you paint my days,
Radiating colors so vibrant, in so many ways.
Your gentle touch, a warm embrace,
In your light, I found a special place.

Each color whispers, a story untold,
A love so precious, worth more than gold.
Beneath your arch, where you have no sight,
I bath in the shimmering light.
On either end, flowers start to gleam,
Reflecting colors as in a dream.

Oh, rainbow, you paint my days,
Radiating colors so vibrant, in so many ways.
Your gentle touch, a warm embrace,
In your light, I found a special place.


Like an angel descending,  a beacon of light.
You guide us through darkness shining so bright.
In every beat of my heart, you'll stay,
My rainbow love, guiding my way.

Oh, rainbow, you paint my days,
Radiating colors so vibrant, in so many ways.
Your gentle touch, a warm embrace,
In your light, I found a sacred place.

Each color whispers, a story untold,
A love so precious, worth more than gold.
Beneath your arch, where you have no sight,
I bath in the shimmering light.
On either end, flowers start to gleam,
Reflecting colors as in a dream.


Guiding my way, through storms and sunshine, hand in hand,
Our love will trancend across the land.

#159 As the name implies, some people may seem outgoing and happy, but they aren't really themselves until they are alone.  

We hope you enjoy it (even if you enjoy it alone).

Lyrics;
In my little corner 
of my little world
I can be who I want 
I can be me
Behind the locked doors
I can be free

Don't have to see their eyes
Don't have to hear their voice
Don't have to feel the pressure 
Of where I don't have the choice

Here in the dark
Where no one can see
Here in my room
Where I want to be

Don't have to put on the act
Don't have to buy what they sell
Don't have  to try to fit in
Don't have to be someone else 

Safe in the comfort 
Of being alone 
I'm in the safety 
Of my little home

My mind floats away
My dreams are unfurled 
In my little corner
Of my little world

The fourth "summer night monologue". It has become winter and it is not a solo guitar, so I treated this alone. I made it based on Eagles version, but triplets have been changed to triple time. I raised the key a little, and the tempo is made late.
People who like the Beatles will remember "Oh! Darling" when listening to this song.listen to the version of BB King and the version of Eagles, and further listen to the Beatles'Oh! Darling, so that the flow of the song is completely impregnated into the body :))

Dan X2 is Dan Blackard (Reno, Nevada & Susanville, California) and Dan Lockhart (Carmel, Indiana & Edwardsville, Illinois).  We met here on SoundCloud.  We like making music together.  We have written and published over 300 songs together.  More songs written together than Lennon and McCartney.

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.
