waves of wondrous sound continue to mutate and flow.....  excellent work, man

Very powerful and athmospheric mood - awesome!

originally recorded as a solo piano boogie, now with a whack of instruments added to sound like a country rock & blues band. With different instruments taking turns at solos, this one’s a pretty fun romp. 

instruments include piano, bass, rhythm guitar, electric guitar, harmonica, slide dobro, organ, drums (all instruments are electronic samples, except me playing piano live, and some bits on drums, organ, and harmonica)

All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve.   :)

KnowingTheknownUnknowns

Led by the nose to your ordained goal
Trained to heal and fit the mould 
Deterred to look beyond the fold
Where the known unknowns truths be told

Oh to burn the flame of life forever bright
To bring the nameless dark into the light

Well blow me down
 
Yeah
Uh-huh 
Knowing the known unknowns

Break

Ah to gaze on what we yet dare to know
To ponder the secrets of the dark unknown unknowns

What we see is what we know
What we know is all we see
Behind the veil of society
Lie the unknown knowns, naturally

Oh to burn the flame of life forever bright
To bring the nameless dark into the light

Well blow me down

Yeah
Uh-huh 
Knowing the known unknowns
Knowing the known unknowns

This is the story about a Blade of Grass....

A Blade of Grass -  by Nat Daniels

There’s a blade of grass , stuck on my shoe
It weathered many storms 
And bathed in sunny hues
But it never saw the sun 
Like I saw it in your smile 
And it never saw a kiss so sweet
Like a gentle breeze 
‘till you moved your lips on mine ..   

Chorus:
It had lead a simple life 
‘Till I tracked it through your door
It was happy and content 
Now it’s torn in knowing more
For it never knew what people do
And that love can be so beautiful 
Like Yours and Mine 

2. 
So that Blade of grass boarded a train
And it crossed a sunny border in the pouring rain
It had traveled all the world
Seeing splendour in all things
But the little grass would trade it all 
To be there with you .. 
It would be her only wish.

Chorus:
Now it’s resting on a shelf, 
By those worn and travelled shoes
And it longs to glide on wings,
In a journey back to you
To relive the dream ..  
Of Me and You
On a starry hill that’s made for two 
.....  Made for Two

There’s a blade of grass, next to my shoe
And it knows a fairy tale 
Of a night so deep and blue 
If it only had one wish 
It would wish to be a star
And to lead me back into your arms 
And to smile on us from a far..

Blade of Grass

Tex Mex Shaman (Stephen)--rhythm/ slide guitars/ riff/ mix and post production--@texmex-shaman
Llanpsych (Tez)--lead guitar--@llanpsych
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)--bass guitar--@josh-clary-1
J.J. Terrell-- Piano/glockenspiel--@j-j-terrell 
Mysterious Decibel--lead and high backing vocals--@themysteriousdecibel
K2 and the Three (Ken)--drums/ cowbell( I had the fever)maracas/tambourine/ woodblock/ low harmonies--@k2andthe3, and @k2-kara

This is a cover from Paul McCartney and Wings, from 1975 album, Venus and Mars, and this album was supported on their 1976 Wings over America tour. They always opened with Venus and Mars/Rockshow
     Ken sent Josh and Tez an email a few months back, about maybe covering this awesome rocker, after we released “Hello World." Before responding, Ken reposted his cover of "Richard Cory," a Simon and Garfunkel cover, sung by Denny Laine and Sir Paul on the Wings Over America triple live album. Stephen commented that “Rockshow” was one of the first songs he learned on guitar. Ken said, “Well, here’s your sign!" He freaked and invited Stephen to immediately contact Josh.
     We finished everything but the vocals by early June, but were stuck on lead vocalist. Several of the collective gave it a go, but nothing sounded right. Then came a late game idea. We had all been following and fans of The Mysterious Decibel for quite some time, so we asked him if he'd be interested in singing it. He was game, and really delivered what so many could not. He is a new, welcome addition to our mix. You'll also hear Stephen, who also accomplished the herculean task of mixing and producing this song, very ably play the entire song on the guitar, with Tez playing the ripping leads. 
  We hope you enjoy our labor of love that has been an entire summer in the making.

ON MY WAY - Loony

Challenge was to make one of my shorter songs with one of my longer lyrics, so I 'had' to craft it into an amalgam of 9/4 and 4/4 signatures. Thus, it may feel crazy on verses but I hope also catchy on refrains.

Letra / Translated lyrics:

Sólo pido no tener deseos (Ya no quiero imaginar)  /  I ask only not to have desires (I don’t want to imagine anymore)

¿Puedes explicarme qué es lo que me pasa?  /  Can you tell me what happens to me?
Señor, llévate de mí esta confusión.  /  Lord, take away this confusion.
Quítame el don de la inteligencia,  /  Take the gift of intelligence from me,
pues si no pensara tanto, sería feliz.  /  because if I didn’t think so much, I would be happy.

Siento que este mundo me es extraño,  /  I feel this world is strange,
estoy a disgusto con mis sentidos.  /  I get displeasure from my senses.
No puedo comprender su funcionamiento,  /  I cannot understand their functioning,
ni siquiera amoldarme a él.  /  nor even get used to it.

Sólo pido no tener deseos,  /  I ask only not to have desires,
ya no quiero imaginarme nada.  /  I don’t want to imagine anything anymore.

Esta situación siempre es pasajera,  /  This situation is always temporary,
pero se repite una y otra vez.  /  but repeats itself again and again.
Este malestar de cuerpo y alma  /  This discomfort of soul and body
me hace desear dejar de ser.  /  makes me wish to stop being.  

Pienso entonces en todos los que me quieren,  /  Then I think of all those who love me,
o al menos en los que a veces lo parecen…  /  or at least about those who sometimes seem to…
¿Por qué es tan difícil la coexistencia  /  Why is coexistence so difficult
en medio de una sociedad inteligente?  /  in an intelligent society?

Sólo pido…  /  I ask only…

No deberías dejar pensar a algo imperfecto,  /  You should not allow something imperfect to think,
sino limitarlo a cumplir su función social.  /  but limit it to fulfilling its social role.
Sólo quiero ser un engranaje más, señor,  /  I only want to be one more cog, Lord,
en tu rebaño de almas, sin preguntas.  /  in your flock of souls, without questions.

Esta vida que me has dado, señor,  /  This life you have given me, Lord,
me tortura, de modos insospechados,  /  tortures me, in unsuspected manners,
a buscarle un sentido a mis dudas,  /  to look for a sense to my doubts,
lo cual, tal vez, sea precisamente su fin!  /  which, maybe, is precisely its purpose!

Sólo pido…  /  I ask only…

Sólo pido no tener deseos (Ya no quiero imaginar)

Thank you  for visiting my world, I'm eager to share! 
I 've been composing electro for about 20 years but started this new project 2 years ago, when the band in which I played bass splited. A large amount of the music I love the most was recorded before 1980. Among these revered groups , Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Ange or King Crimson stand out. Over the years, I've also been very fond of many diverse bands and songwriters (The Doors; The Beatles; Bowie; Neil Young; Deep Purple; Led Zep; Patti Smith; U2; The Police; Massive Attack; Chemical Brothers; Killing Joke; Marillion; Morphine; Nirvana; The Young Gods; Dominique A; Noir Désir...). My most recent experience is "Conil" and I encourage you to discover this awesome singer and songwriter here on SC.
More related to my own production, one could find influences from Vangelis, Jarre, Björk, Oldfield, Numan, Kraftwerk and other pioneers. Finally, I should mention the great soundtrack composers such as Ennio Morricone, Wendy Carlos or Hans Zimmer.
My desire is to be a tiny part of the great admirable family of composers and musicians in order to explore the infinity of musical combinations that our mind offers...
Feel free to comment or criticize my plethoric prod!
