Big shout out to our main man Rob Zelinsky for the fresh mix, thunderous bottom end and fresh electrics on this old favorite! Hopte you all enjoy!

yeah, great track with a glimpse of Lou Reed vibes.

I like it! It's dorky and I'm dorky. Match has been made.

This song is based on an interesting conflict that occurred between an urban young vixen and my daughter who came face to face in our back garden. Both of them seemed to object to sharing what I thought was a fairly large space and each time my daughter opened the back door the fox appeared. This went on for some time until my daughter stated that she would not go into the garden until the fox had gone and continually moaned about the situation at every opportunity. She kept telling me about the fox, I think expecting her Dad (me) to do something about it but every time I went in to the back garden the vixen would disappear. It became a major intrusion of her personal space and she was not happy.
On Christmas Day 2015 I decided that I should, as far as the fox situation was concerned, try and help my daughter’s confidence and said that I wanted to take some festive pictures at the bottom of the garden. I recorded the whole event on camera but I am not sure that it helped.  In retrospect, maybe dressing my son Daniel as a fox wasn't the wisest way of achieving this...

Hans took what was a simple, three chord uke song and turned it into this wonderful thing, as he always seems to do.  That man is a truly extraordinary talent.  He also put together the video from the one and a half minutes worth of footage we took, so it seems there really is nothing he cannot do...

Chorus:
The Fox is coming to town
The Fox is coming to town.    

The Fox is taking over
She has a dominating stare
The eyes shine like lasers
Her teeth so sharp to scare

Chorus
The Fox is taking over
She wants to occupy my space
Every movement getting closer
Soon be standing face to face

Chorus
The Fox is taking over
I must get my tactics right
Stand and face her eye to eye
Getting ready for the fight

Chorus
The Fox is taking over
I will pretend to be really scared
There can be only one winner
And she'll be the one who's red

Chorus
The Fox is taking over
I haven't seen her for a while
I now stand in a different place
I think it really suits my style

Chorus (Repeat)

Galaxies.
A new single by Jude with Lemonade.
Thanks to Lemonade for one of the best lyrics I've ever read, and for her voice! Here are the lyrics...

GALAXIES
are you dreaming tonight?

tossing and turning
in galaxies so bright
your star ships rotating in the light

the sun is so much brighter
out here

all the mirrors pointing
in the stratosphere

all the energy of stars
travel
they travel
they're shining here
tonight..

galaxies are spinning into each other
tonight

black holes kissing
black holes
spinning tunnels of light

is this what you’re dreaming tonight?

oh how I wish

oh how I wish the stars would come down

tell me how they started
this time around

every moment
we are twisting

I just want to know
what they’re twisting about….

is this what you’re dreaming about?

all this glowing dust
that shapes the void?

all these galaxies
all the stars we know nothing about
is this what you’re losing sleep over?

all the places we will never see
all the space
all the stars..

they’re glowing…nothing you see is here
a thousand years ago
you should go to sleep....
they’re just memories you know

Three headed  ghost of misfortune:
I have seen this before
Deine Vergangenheit ist dein Schicksal 
the past is your fate
bei Glückskeksen muss man zwischen den Zeilen lesen, um die Tragik zu verstehen
with fortune cookies you have to read between the lines to understand the tragedy
no birthday for Cookie Monster!

Jenny Trübsal:
ich glaube ich schrumpfe
I think i am shrinking

Clara Sonnenstrahl:
Die Dunkelheit nach dem Sonnenuntergang
war das deine Idee?
Ich gehe jetzt Enten füttern
Der Hund muss auch mal raus
Alles ist besser als hier drin zu sein
Was kann denn ich dafür, dass Du verhext bist?

Clara Sonnenstrahl:
Ein Besen saugt die Krümel nicht weg
Ist ein Pinsel ein Pinsel ohne Borsten?
Ohne Borsten
Ich stehe hier
Das Viereck ist dort drüben
komm
der Karton hat keine Tür
die Schatten in den Ecken

Three  headed  ghost of misfortune: 
I see bad things coming your way
(mit unendlicher Vergangenheit, mit einer Gegenwart im
Schneckentempo und einer nicht mehr vorhandenen Zukunft)
with an infinite past, with a present at a snail's pace and a future that no longer exists
(ist es absurd anzunehmen dass es dir jemals besser gehen wird als damals)
it is absurd to assume that you will ever be better than you were then
im Sumpf bewegt man sich besser nicht
It's better not to move in the swamp
(keine Hochzeit für den Froschkönig)
no wedding for the Frog Prince!

Jenny Trübsal:
ich glaube ich versinke
I think I am sinking

Clara Sonnenstrahl:
Die Schatten in den Ecken
hast Du die eingeladen?
Es steht noch Kuchen in der Küche
Die Spinnweben in diesem Zimmer hier,
haben (doch) nichts (mehr) mit Tierliebe zu tun
würdest du nur mit mir reden, ich kann dich hören
Was kann denn ich dafür, dass Du verhext bist?

VerheXung By Naicke & Her Trusty Dream Tiger

Finally, after some years giving the guitar a go and trying to make a living as janitors, HMS are back. With a slightly melancholic and reflective track about everything that counts in a more or less unhinged world.

Seasons End

Longtime friend Clint Culwell and I got together to practice and record some of his songs and covers, and jam a little as well.  Out of the session came this little gem, a unique, slightly reggae take on a traditional favorite.  Clint is left center on vocal and nylon string guitar; I am right center doing some ornamenting on steel sting guitar and playing bass. For more music from Clint check out his Cloud @Clint-Culwell.

Wayfaring Stranger (Clint Culwell;  guitar, vocal, David Dunham; guitar, bass)

STONERJAZZ @user-911083679 sent me a guitar loop which I expanded on with electro sounds. He then laid down these amazing otherworldly words -- I am blown away by the results! Always a wonderful experience to collaborate with you Jeff!

Mamma Don't

Everything's so surreal sometimes. Actually, most of the time. It's hard to make sense of all of this... do you sometimes feel like your mind is bending, too? This is not necessarily a bad thing. It's like seeing things again through children's eyes. And then you feel like having candy - sweet, pink und bubbly candy. Like this song.
