BROKEN DREAMS AND EARTHLY ROMANCES

Way out in the wilds of Central Asia, on the Kazakh-Uzbek border, lies the toxic remains of a dying sea ... the Aral Sea. For thousands of years, this sea was a life-giver, bringing food, trade, and civilization. Covering an area the size of Ireland, it was the fourth largest freshwater lake in the world. But then, in the middle of the 20th Century, something happened. An irrigation project went wrong, depriving the sea of vital water. In its place came toxic chemicals, poisons, and shores of unbreathable dust. Today, the sea is so deadly it’s been called the Silent Chernobyl.
We humans have turned an ancient oasis to a modern desert ravaged by cancer-causing storms ...  this is the story of the Aral Sea.

Lost

Song Of The Wind

Lyrics:
its going down-----Its going down-----it's going down-(X2)
Times hard----ain't sitting on no gold mine
This life-------just living on borrowed time 
standby---we---waiting for the next sign
guess what -----not in this lifetime 
now what-----survival ----on the frontline 
The design---flawed----we all running out of time----
turmoil-------another-chalk outline
Clipped wings------there ain't no overtime
No tears---------when-another angel falls
It's critical--------gotta ----make the right calls 
Face facts---the writings----been on the wall
my edge--- my word----my bond---my balls 
------Caught in a wedge-----One mistake---its going down
-----One mistake---its going down
The ledge-----one mistake-------- its going down
-----------
Its going down-----it's going down-----

Seems like dreams----another dimension 
Sounds like Screams -----just to get my attention 
Some things are same -----but most-- different though
Where the hell----do I fit in---in------this---scenario 
Will some one clue me in -----on the things ----I don't know
Shit will be a lot better-----once I know ----once I know-------
------once I know ----once I know-------

I know the mission
Not the game----
The pieces aren't the same---
I know I'm living---- why? 
cause there's-----constant pain

Blazing a trail to the unknown--don't need approval
Raising hell all the way ------Because--that-that-shits vital
They done raised the bar-----on basic survival 
People dying for a living---toss out the Bible 
One thing---holds through---- an eye for an eye
Inhale exhale---awaiting ---your turn to die
---why cry----------dry your eye
Keep---fighting-for the cause-------it's do or die
Limited -choices----Till the second we expire
----The battle goes on ---each and every---day
Next move -------plan the strategy--make the-right--play
--Change is vital-won't have it-any other way
-Form an opinion------ but hold your judgement -if you may
Your perspective might----suddenly change---- some---day

As long as I'm able----living ---life my way
-----------approaching ---life my way----------------
Ain't pulling no punches --- taking them out in bunches
Hope you ate your wheaties ---or at least packed your lunches

-------------------------------------------------

Seems Like Dreams

This is a song that began with Steve (Steve's Planet)writing, playing it on acoustic guitar, and singing it on a stem he shared with Ken (K2 and the Three [and Four]), who added some perfect drums, as always. Ken then shared it with me, who added bass, and Tez (Llanpsych), who added some brilliant, tasteful guitar fills. We then got JJ involved, and he added the great, undulating organ. Finally, we got the master chef involved, Chris (cgmaness), who came up with some killer guitar riffs and mixed the whole thing very expertly. It must've been quite a chore, too, because there are a lot of magicians in this show. We all really feel lucky that Steve shared this song with us, and admire his singing and songwriting. We hope you enjoy our creation!

Mother Earth

Little excerpt from a gig a few weeks back. There was an old piano lurking at the side of stage so Dani wondered over and gave it a good bash mid set - i made some pretty average bass noises in the background : )  pardon the audio quality -  its a straight raw capture from my trusty zoom . Vibe is good though

Kirby/Ward Live @ The Polish Club (piano Improv)

I made a trio version of this flute duett.

Mesto Für Drei Saxophone

This is my remix of a track from @archmageband2 called Workplace Challenges. It's my first time working with Rob Ulysses (@rob-ulysses) and Masha Solo (@masha-solo).

I built on the theme and concept that they had developed, but took this mix in a slightly different direction compared with their original piece which I hope you will be interested to also check out:

I think my version here has maybe a bit of a darker vibe to it.

 It's been fun working with some new collaborators. We have more music in the works, so stay tuned!

Occupational Hazard - w/ Archmage Band

One of my favorite projects by Morry back in the late 80s/early 90s. Tascam, probably around the time we had an 8-track cassette. Hope our SC friends are doing well!

On The Run

The shapes of the wind trace invisible paths in the silence, carrying whispers, echoes, and fragments of memory. The music floats like a fragile light over forgotten rivers, dissolving into shadows that still remember. A journey through weightless atmospheres where breath, silence, and time merge.

A Whisper Lost in Time

My old SC mate Micah played drums to test a friend’s recording set, and sent me some cuts full of improvised breaks and tempos. I love time changes, yet this was really challenging!

I finally chose two of them and jammed with bass until I learnt his story telling.
Then, I clicked on the red button, again and again.
