I cooked up a tasty little jam for ya and even got my mom to hop on the track! Besides some EQ and compression these are raw, unedited tracks, just like a live performance.

Comment what you think and if you'd like to see this turned into a full song :)

Tasty Jam

It's a really long song. 10p mix bag and a panda pop for anyone who makes it through.

From the album ‘Trust No Leaders’ by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara. Released July 1, 2022. 

// Count the Dead
The events of 2020-21 have exposed the fragility of our global systems and the flawed foundations on which modern societies and economies are built. ‘Count the Dead’ brings attention to complex issues concerning the value of human life. The song draws attention to the social and economic injustices that plague society, and the violent health inequalities that have been further exacerbated by the global pandemic, which has now claimed more than 4 million lives worldwide.    

Continuing the themes addressed in ‘Love in the Time of Pestilence’, ‘Count the Dead’ is the second instalment of songs addressing the ongoing pandemic and global crisis. At a time when the world appears to be more divided than ever before, discourse has never been more important, and urgent.

🎵  Lyrics 🎵 

The human race has been living in fear for years 
No one to trust, who do we blame 
Millions have died because their leaders gambled with lives 
Who are they to decide who lives and who dies 

They put wealth, over our health  
They count us dead, while we are alive 
They let bodies pile, then feed us lies 

Here,  
Don’t lie 
Don’t waste my time 

The culling of man 
The great divide 
Priority to the rich  
The poor die like flies  

Thrive and despise 
No more love for those demised 
You count the dead before they die 
You prosper on fucking lies 

A great chasm has formed within our societies 
A story of two nations, rich and poor 
Rising inequality and injustice 
The worst of human nature, amplified 
  
You let the masses congregate   
Knowing thousands will die  
You gamble with lives, ignore the science  
Your policy has cost thousands of lives  
You look away, as the bodies pile high  
You count us dead, while we are alive  
Count the dead, before they die  

Thrive and despise  
No more love for those demised  
You count the dead before they die  
You prosper on fucking lies  

Thrive and despise  
No more love for those demised  
You count the dead before they die  
You prosper on fucking lies  

Here,   
Don’t lie  
Don’t waste my time  

Now is time for the human race to rise up  
Our leaders have fed us lies for far too long  
What humanity needs is a great reset  
Find ways to harmonise, not polarise  

Follow no leader  
But leave no one behind

Count The Dead

Created a track with a rock beat and came out good.

Good Day Ends Cool

Defended By Heroes

Domingo temprano despiertas en tu pueblo después de un buen concierto de banda el Sábado por la noche, escuchas el concierto de los pájaros y buscas un buen café, te empiezan a rodear los sonidos de el Domingo, caminas hacia la plaza involucrándose en el ambiente escuchas una voz diciendo; hace frío -y como escribió Paul McCartney en un día en la vida; te viras a un sueño. ¿Es Domingo fiesta del pueblo, La Virgen del Pilar? y se sigue la canción hasta el final por la tarde casi noche cuando una buena banda termina el concierto y las festividades de ese particular Domingo con una bella voz femenina que te transporta de regreso.

Domingo A La Mañana (Cover)

Domingo A La Mañana 2

Domingo A La Manana

From the album ‘Trust No Leaders’ by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara. Released July 1, 2022. 

//The Prophet
“A tribute to Sylvia Plath’s poem, Lady Lazarus, “The Prophet” is told through the eyes of an advanced A.I robot who is “resurrected” like the biblical Lazarus, but this time with a destructive super-intelligence, wreaking havoc upon her human creators. 

‘The Prophet’ petitions for the ethical use of Artificial Intelligence technologies in order to protect human consciousness and our existence as a species. The song is an ominous reminder that if we are not careful, we might find ourselves with a technology that destroys the civilisation that invented it.”

🎵 Lyrics 🎵
Today is the day
All the world is watching
The greatest show
Ever shown

The crowd is swelling
Barricades are bursting
A great gathering
The big maggot parade

Ladies and lesser men
Seekers of mysteries
You are about to witness
The greatest miracle
Ever performed

Behold
She returns
From the world beyond
Fresh from the crucible
Rise, Lazarus, rise

Rise
Get up, come forth, arise
Get up and rise
Get up, come forth, arise

I may seem dead
But I am coming back to life
I rise
One limb at a time
Till I am restored
And revived

I move an inch first
Then later a mile
I stagger to my feet
And you shall see me stand
Glorious and free
Gloriously free

Here are my hands
And these are my feet
I am awake
I am complete
Feel and touch my legs and thighs
I am watching you with open eyes

Did you enjoy the great strip and tell
Look at me
Do I terrify
Do not confuse me for a goddess
Gods have mercy
But not I

Shut your mouths and let me speak
For I will slay you with your words
You will die only one once
But I have lived a thousand lives

�  About The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara

Hailed as “pioneers of a new form of expression” through the performance of poetry in music, The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS) are a UK-based duo comprising Daphne Ang (Singapore) and Andrea Papi (Italy) who came together in London in early 2020 to record their debut album, Full Spectrum, which they released on 26 February 2021. 

The duo draws inspiration from many sources stemming from Tool through to Kraftwerk and Russian Circles, as well as absorbing the poetry of Virginia Woolf and Jim Morrison in their lyrics and ‘poetry performance’. TCOMAS's music strives to fill a gap in music by bringing literature and history together into an arena where rock and metal meets electronica.Their musical and lyrical themes are very much rooted in the duo’s interests in classical literature and theatre, as well as in the fields of philosophy, history, and psychology.

Home Grown

I played drums and sang in rock bands from the early 90's until about 5 yrs ago. I am unable to perform anymore so I write, write, write! My influences range from country, disco, funk, hip hop and yes .. ROCK & ROLL baby! I use Logic Pro's virtual instruments but I play every part on a Yamaha keyboard. I do all my own vocals on my music. I have 3 killer players for the guitar solos. 
Peace, love & eternal grooviness!
