A&E SoundForge "Strangers to Me"

Music and lyrics by Andrew Feltham

Strangers to Me

So much talent from my part of the country (SW Louisiana, SE Texas) George Jones, Tracy Byrd, Mark Chesnutt, George Straight, Janis Joplin, Edgar Winters and the list goes on.  Tracy Lawrence sang with a Louisiana based band in 1988-1990.  He was shot 4 times by robbers in may 1991 which delayed his first album Sticks and Stones.  He was named top new male country vocalist in 1993.  He continues to create great music.  Just one of my favorite Tracy Lawrence songs.

That's How A Cowgirl Says Goodbye (Cover)

Track consisting of 1 bass, 1 guitar, 1 drum and heavily processed vocals, this is arguably a bit of an album filler. Started out jamming and it turned into this, didn't really go ahead and polish it (like, making the drums more interesting, and so)

I remixed it in a functional/minimal style this year to be included on the Overland album, and now making it public here on the Cloud as well to bridge the time until I can actively work on new material again.

I like the lyrics, mostly:

grinding out the foresight
moon is up and fullbright
feeding back on the insight
burning taste of the mind

final words are spoken
prayers of dead and omen
giving hell a token
of passing by, unbroken

save for skies on fire
narrowing the wire
slowly fade the choir
angels too expire

FLAMES OF MY DESIRE 

I can see
I can feel
I can see you
I can feel you
Without you
I can feel you
Without you
I can be

I can see where you are
I can see where you’re going
I can see where you’ve been
I can feel what you want
I can feel what you need
I can feel your attraction
A chemical reaction
I can be your one and only fire
Your singular desire
Throw oil on the fire
Feed the flames of my desire
The flames of my desire

I can love
I can love
With you
Within you
I can be

I can drown in your scent
I can love your body
I can feel your reaction
I can lose my head
Be your one and only fire
Your singular desire
Feed the flames of my desire
Flames of my desire
Flames of my desire

I light up a cigarette
Open my window
I let out the steam
Signs and tells on the floor
The glow
The embers
The flames of my desire
The flames of my desire
The flames of my desire
The flames of my desire

The Solstice - Autumn Has Gone (Nostalgia Di Un Tempo Remoto)

This is an edited version of a 5 year old song of mine. The region I live in once grew through coal and steel. The workers in the steel mills have a tough and sweaty job. Blacksmiths have completed the material. This powerful rock track is dedicated to them. The hammer blow on the anvil sets the rhythm.

Ruhr Steel Rock [Remix] - OMCB

Vocals, guitar, and foot operated drums all performed live by Franko Malley

wasted away again
now i'm coming home my friend
this is not the way i envisioned it
it's all my fault

its not the time to mend and heal
its time to make repairs
all my loves and my relationships
and to all the things i broke

the air... still feels...
the same... round here...
and i'm all there is to blame
and its all my fault

the faces when i close my eyes
remind me of my shame.
and take me to a place i can't let go
and it's all my fault

just let me go home
i can do better
i can do better

all these tears can't wash away all that wretched pain
just let me do better
lord let me do better

there's that line in the dirt
made of soil and decay
let me do better
let me do better

theres that long dark road
where i been down before
let me do better
let me do better

Dark Roads

This original ode to the desert night highway brings two lovers together in the splendor of the stars. The silent expanse inspires their moment of passion.

Lyrics:  Whispers and Wishes  (a.k.a "Was I Insane")

Black desert night... 
Dotted lines flashing white
Straight is the road 
The mountains like ghosts
And you're ever by my side…

The highway just wails
The stars form a veil
That shimmers and calls
‘till we give it pause 
And break a silent sky

Chorus:  
Your hands in mine..
Hearts that entwine..
Soft moans and kisses..
Whispers and Wishes.
That shatters the deep… 
That shatters the deep of the night.

(instrumental solo)

Chorus:  
Your hands in mine..
Hearts that entwine..
Soft moans and kisses..
Whispers and Wishes.
That shatters the deep… 
That shatters the deep of the night.
That Shatters the deep of the night..

Whispers and Wishes

#197 Whereabouts Unknown Part !

It's a cops n robbers story.  This is a longer story so this ong includes the first half. We plan to come back to it some time for, as Paul Harvey used to say, "The Rest Of The Story"  Hope you like it! 

Lyrics;
  Put the foot On the floor
Picks it up goes Out the door
Gets away In the car
Drives all day travels far

He hides the face
Finds the place
Stays alone
Looses the phone
He's doing his own time
For his perfect crime
Whereabouts unknown

Temptation is a mighty sin
And someone's out to turn him in
A little bee inside in the hive
But honey's good for nothing 
if you don't come out alive

Put the foot On the floor
He gets the call Out the door
Got the badge Got the gun
He'll fnd the guy that's on the run

Hit the street
Be discrete 
Using tact
He gets the facts 
Bad guy gotta do the time
For committing the crime
His whereabouts unknown

Temptation is a mighty sin
Hands over fists of greedy men
With Intimidation and sound advice
And the Information sells 
at a discount price
The fox had thrown em off the trail
But there's a hound dog on his tail

Will he escape or go to jail
Somebody's gonna fail
Have you seen this man?
Do you recognize this man?
We're searching for this man...

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.
