A 9/8 beat with dire tones, Due or Die is an existential motivational speech; the head coach portends the fate of the team. Just before the end of a game, the story unfolds in due time. To get what one is due, or die in the act of attempting to attain or obtain what was originally thought to be rightfully theirs (perceived or otherwise), is the message in toto. It is the protagonist of the story who is listening most intensely and intently to the coach, but unfortunately does not make the big momentous play and fails the attempt in a calamitous fashion.

LYRICS:
Heave-ho
Leave room
Don't show
Bare bone

Unrest, for a success
Rewind, laxing all night
No show, time is slow
Trials end, overflow

Facing up and down, around
What's in it to lose
Racing side to side, how bout
We won't rise to you

Last play
Honours made
Take it to a task
Soaking, awry,
Due or Die

Heave-ho
Leave room
Don't show
Bare bone

Tire-pulling hurricane
Painful fight for glory
Create need to profess
Shove off upon ground

Tracing back and fourth, reward
Fend off rivalry
Making haste against a foe
Iron undertow

Last play
Honours made
Take it to a task
Soaking, alive,
Due or Die

Due or Die

Brush Past My Skin

the devil in me

Reworked this, just on instinct.

Yoshi & Chie are friends of mine from Osaka, Japan, where I lived for a year back in 2002-03. They now live here in Toronro, where I got to know them while busking together on the street, and jamming at my house with a few other friends. Here's a medley of music from that day:

Yoshi is an incredibly talented and super creative sitar player, sometimes playing with a violin bow, or with trippy electronic effects. He participated in a performance of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band full album re-enactment here in Toronto several years ago. Together with wife Chie, who plays didgeridoo, sings, and plays various percussion and electronic effects, they form the group Kaminari. Kaminari is a very popular act performing at various music festivals around Toronto, with shows now including dancing performances by their daughter.

This is a song from their early album Triangle, where I was honoured to be asked to play the drum (djembe) part - the only other artist on the album. 

Here's a video of a show they did a while ago to give you a sense of their stuff. I just like to plug them cause they're a super nice couple and a joy to play with.

Thank you so much for listening!

Really just a way to express through music, and give that old dream a way to find some place of feeling scratched

All instruments are played by myself unless noted. Only software is for mixing and mastering. Not like any of this matters though we all need to find a place to have Happiness
