Drive me Closer

Drive Me Closer

Expansive, immersive, epic dark ambient drone journey (with occasional hints of relevant noise, experiments and twists as always, hopefully at all the right moments for those now listening).

Exploring the themes of 'Mother Nature' as a living breathing entity, the intriguing forests of the world, and how we should make more of an effort, small and daily, large and for our lifetimes, to take care of the very things that give us our existence.

Made between December 16th and May 3rd 2022, using piano, voice, bass, drums, several field recordings in Orlová Cz, no 'Paulstretch' and lots of manipulations and layering.

I hope you will step away from reality for an hour and let my sounds and nature guide your brain and feelings. I promise it is a warming, fulfilling trip once you are inside.

TONA - Hit And Run

This one is essentially a one-take guitar and vocal (well, this is technically take 2), plus a very very very simple slide guitar line and a harmony vocal.

It evolved out of me noodling a riff from an open-E tuning. I almost reverted to a standard, as I was struggling with the bridge, but I'm glad I persevered as I think the open tuning makes the guitar part sound a bit more interesting. I have to admit, the lyrics were a bit of an afterthought, and ended up being a case of choosing words that rhyme with 'bend' and retrofitting the other lines accordingly🤦

LYRICS:

We've been doing this ol' dance
So long, I swear
You say I'm an idiot
I say that's unfair
'Cause if you bend a little
I'll meet you halfway there

I’ve been pulling at this thread
And so have you
Baby, we’re unravelling
Like we always do
But if you mend a little
I’ll meet you halfway there

And I don’t even know the truth of it
Just know I hate to be apart
So when you ask me what’s the use of it
I point a finger to my heart

I’m planting out these seeds
On a sunny day
Gonna cover them with earth
Then hope and pray
And if you tend a little
I’ll meet you halfway there

Halfway There

To love is to put you in trash
To love is to never publish
To love is to lead you to vanish
I know it's all what you wish

To love is to put you in trash 
Like give the water to fish
To love is to put you in trash 
And never try again to search
