A rocking ballad about lost love. This song is a co-write with Roy Blake. Roy also contributed the drum and keyboard tracks. I supplied the guitar tracks and vocal. David Hynes supplied the bass track. Roy also provided the mixing and mastering. Produced by Rich O'Brien and Roy Blake

Gone, Gone, Gone

You’ve hijacked all my senses 
now I’m a pirate wannabe 
as I’m drifting from the fences
to my destiny 
and I’ll follow you through sunsets 
crossing oceans in rebellion 
as a refugee 
as a refugee and 

This chemical reaction makes me crave for satisfaction 
going weak in your vicinity 
think I’m gonna take a knee 
and in this phase of my excitement 
I’m shameless and amusing and we could have fun 
you and me 
and 

Like the howler in the alley 
I’m radiating heat
questioning my sanity 
living in a fantasy 
thinking you’re my destiny
when I’m really just a refugee

Driftin From My Fences

My wife was listening all day to me working on this song. When I added a banjo, her interest piqued, and she wrote lyrics for a country feel.

The Prescription Blues
Lyrics Veronica Krath
Music Mike Krath
Performed and Produced Mike Krath

In the morning when I rise
Gotta take these pills to feel alive
They help me get through another day

Through all my aches and all my ills
My salvation lies in a tiny pill
And my life lies on a prescription pad

Why did the Lord put me on this earth
Just to take all these pills to feel my worth
Wish I could take my body back

Oh Lord, I wish there was another way,
To make it through another day,
Then taking all these pills.

Chorus:
And in the end when I die
My hope is that I’ll find myself in paradise
With no pills and no more pain
Cause to live is Christ and to die is gain.

Lyrics:
Our so-called intellect
is ignorance defined
A veil that blinds 
our eyes

We think we know it all
And that’s why we'll fall

The ancients, now buried
Believed themselves as gods

Their deafening silence
proves that they were wrong

Gentle bravery preserves
While hubris destroys

We’ve forgotten ourselves
Consumed by our toys

We think we know it all
And that’s why we'll fall
Again and again
And again

Our so-called intellect
is ignorance defined
A veil that blinds 
our eyes

We think we know it all
And that’s why we'll fall

A mighty army lies vanquished
The snake consumes itself

The one who kills
destroys themselves

Subtle perseverance
steers us to the way

Our collective madness 
has chosen – has chosen --
Another fate

True words may be ugly
While the beautiful may be false

Have respect for everyone
don’t exalt yourself

The great are laid low
The soft and gentle remain

This world could be a paradise
But we have initiated the fall

Flumina (Brian Butts Feat. Cosmic Keanu)

In this track, we go from experiencing the disarray of the inner heart chaos often felt in those dark, unforgiven, unlit spaces... to silencing the external and internal noise... the shaming and blaming voices, finding the ability to hear and synchronize our breathing with our own heartbeat, and "raise our own voice again..." living most authentically. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how your body responds to this piece in a lower frequency than typical radio music recorded 440Hz.

Forgiveness

Another track from my EP "Short Songs For Tall People"
Lyrics:
You say your name is society and you think you’re sick?
Sit down, patient, and I’ll examine you!
Uh huh, just what I thought:
That complexion of yours--grey as a flophouse bed sheet.
Your breath--reeking of smog and sewer gas!
Headaches? What do you expect, with nothing but cash registers clanging inside your empty skull?

I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
I've got an electric bongo
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
I howl, I scowl
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O

Of course your stomach hurts!
You’ve swallowed too many dreams, too many hopes, and turned them into one gigantic ulcer.
Look out—your hands are trembling—any minute now and you may drop a bomb!

I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
Steely Dan's a dildo
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
I play pinball
I play Pachinko
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O

I’ve got news for you, society—you’re not sick, you’re dead!
Solid Baby!
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
I've got an electric bongo
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O

And I’m going to bury you and dance the twist on your grave!
Solid Baby!
(Punctuated by finger snaps and applause.)

Experimental, experiential composer, producer, recording artist, singer/songwriter, and percussion enthusiast. 
  
We create music using a fusion of genres, primarily using Logic Pro X and updated versions, our MIDI Controller Keyboard, as well as live world instruments, (mostly percussion,) often blending musical styles or influences from our world traveling days… whether our singer/songwriter material with lyrics… or our meditative/emotive instrumentals. We also prefer to produce most of our music in 432Hz range frequency, not 440Hz, which is known for disharmonization, (feel free to search "studies of the affects/effects of music/frequencies/sound on cells…" and “dive into” that “rabbit hole” as deeply as you wish, lol.) 

For appropriately compensating us: Our PRO is BMI.  Rainier Daze (Composer/Writer) IPI# is 01060351404. Our Rainier Daze Music (Publishing) IPI# is 01111187209. Remember to professionally respect those who create the music speaking to you and that it's a business we invest time and money into creating what you appreciate.

PLEASE... DO NOT SEND US UNSOLICITED SONGS OR PLAYLISTS!!! We no longer respond to those emails… and will mark/report those profiles as SPAM and block repeat offenders. We are not looking for collaborations with other singer/songwriters, artists, producers, etc. We also do not independently publish, promote, or distribute the music of or for others, nor do we have music industry connections or ties within it. Please, only send music to music professionals who've requested you to do so... that's the number ONE rule in becoming a music professional... respect everyone's time. Research the people you want to connect with, the genre you work within, etc. Participate in open mics and local performances to connect with folks in your local area, as it's a great way to obtain feedback, learn, and grow... as well as feel supported in the right environment. Check around and “feel things out” and you'll find a niche where who you are created to BE... fits! Sometimes it takes time and trial and error; but, you'll get there by continuing to take forward steps. We thank you for spending any time within our music and/or our website and blogs; because... we create them for you!

In 2023, primarily focused on creating and producing the songs for our upcoming first album for a 2024 release and our https://channeltherain.com website spiritual enlightenment journey through music and essential oils. We appreciate your patience as we continue diving more deeply into pursuing our lifelong dreams and goals... building a solid foundation as we grow towards our five year plan, dependent on "the evolution of life on earth," of course. :) Thank you for granting us the space to honor who we are created to BE, and for our most loyal early website series followers for supporting us and for giving us your feedback and requests, as well as those who've attended the open mic nights we've participated in singing/playing our part, etc. We are so very Grateful! Thank you!

Please also understand we will delete likes and/or comments from those not showing in our analytics as having actually listened to our music tracks... and those who are marketing and/or un-organic promotional entities, etc. will be reported as spam and blocked... as our way of trying to have more authentic analytics. We also report those of you who create multiple profiles and have requested advised SC administration to please go to verified only profiles. We are actively doing our part to create the changes we want to see within the music community and profession. Gamers need to get a life and go to actual games to "get their fix" or "kicks." Do something more meaningful with your lives versus needing to "control others," by inserting yourselves into their lives, rather than leading authentically full-filling and rewarding ones where you are uplifting the world and humanity... and contributing to growth and learning... for, with, and of the Self and other BEings. Otherwise, perhaps decipher why you're so disconnected from the Self and others and need to meddle in the lives of others, rather than fully authentically LIVING into all YOU are created to BE... by focusing on YOU, YOUR life, YOUR future, YOUR contributions to the world. 
Manipulating others and trying to force YOUR goals for THEIR lives upon them is NOT healthy, as evidenced by the way the US sanctioned "education" systems have largely failed to teach facts versus: maligned and fake history, medicine and pharmacology claiming it was or had been anything close to resembling "health care;" sciences in general (especially with regard to neurological, chemical, and biological agents and weaponry under the guise and supposition of war...) while mass farming, the medical and pharmaceutical industries, and protective agencies funded with US taxpayer dollars have used and continue to use those same "findings" or "developments" or "discoveries" and "agents or compounds..." on their own soldiers, their own civilian general populations... and with Covid 19... now, the world's population... as the greatest measure of "controlling the masses." This by increasing judgment against those who've dared and actively chosen to more extensively read and engage in thousands and hundreds of thousands of conversations with everyday folks, as well as those within the aforementioned agencies and entities who've dared to speak the truths about what they've done, learned, and KNOW from within them. These are folks who dare to speak up for what's true and right... despite some of them becoming flagged to be strip-searched every single time they fly, by government agencies and entities who (despite planting the public ideology of them being "conspiracy theorists," rather than the whistle-blowers,) KNOW these people HAVE evidence and continue to travel the world sharing it with those who are open-minded, open-hearted enough to listen to FACTS beyond the brainwashing and limited mindsets of the majority who'd rather "remain asleep" or hold ourselves accountable for our own complacency, complicit-ness, in perpetuating these toxic agendas and behaviors... rather than treating them as the domestic terrorism crimes they are. If these things have persisted, perhaps it's time to listen to why they are still slapping us in the face, rather than burying our heads... believing everything those "in charge" would have us believe. Even Christianity is founded on archaic, patriarchal, control which let out over 100 tablets/books... because it didn't "suit their agenda." It's how generations were conned into building churches and funding their idolic maintenance, when Jesus allegedly said "give up everything and follow me..." (whilst loving a prostitute... oh ye "Christians" who judge "certain occupations...") and attended a Jewish temple. Yet, many of us were conned into worshiping a caucasian Jesus... as if He were born in Bethlehem Pa, rather than in the Middle East! It's time we read more and listen and turn off sanctioned "news" sources and sanctioned only education and resources... and dig a little deeper for truths.
