Back in 2024 Dan C E Kresi and myself started working on a few ideas. Being the master of slicing and splicing that he is, he took some guitar parts I recorded and twisted them into something new....
Something called... OKTOPIA

These are the first tracks to be finished with more to come later.

Our styles may be very different, but when galaxies collide, sometimes magic happens! :)

OKTOPIA Presents: Deep Dive

Beats, Synths & Samples: Dan C E Kresi
Lead Guitar, Rhythm Guitar & Bass: The Shire Bairn Project
Produced by The Shire Bairn Project

Welcome to EchoLandia! 

... where I hope you meet an echo of yourself on the dance floor. 

Open to critical feedback on the production and mixing. Wanted the bass to be clearer and drums sharper. But got tired of tweaking knobs. 

Influences: Jamiroquai, Daft Punk, Deee-Lite

Pulled this old song out the other day and have been working on it. I've always enjoyed the melody. Written over 10 years ago. This is one of those back burner songs, never felt complete due to a second verse, and that came quick the other night, crazy how that happens, after so many years, but it's all about timing. I did this live take tonight, on once again the old Baldwin:) This was no first take...took a few, always worth it...it's such a nice feeling hitting that final chord...knowing...okay that was it!  I hope you enjoy this song. I appreciate all who listens! Many thanks! What a fun ride it's been on here so far! 

Dark Roads

I've never been on a plane
Never kissed beauty in the rain
Never felt a day without pain
Never felt freedom in my brain
Let all these facts remain
Ready for golden terrain

Been running up and down dark roads
Going nowhere devils at my side
God make em hide
Be my guide
I wanna know how it feels to be heading home
Oh I wanna know how it feels to be heading home

I don't need the worlds big dreams
The world has got some evil teams
Fly me through the cold jet streams
Fly me through the pale moon beams
Fly me through the red sun beams
To a place with no screams

Been running up and down dark roads
Going nowhere devils at my side
God make em hide
Be my guide
I wanna know how it feels to be heading home
Oh I wanna know how it feels to be heading home

Instrumental

Been running up and down dark roads
Going nowhere devils at my side
God make em hide
Be my guide
I wanna know how it feels to be heading home!
Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo 
Oh I wanna know how it feels to be heading home!
Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh ohh

Fly me through the cold jet streams
Fly me through the pale moon beams
Fly me through the red sun beams
To a place with no screams

“Stroll -N- Keys”  by Luke

Bouteille à la mer

Atmosphere

Tantos inocentes perdidos no caminho
Fugimos de nós, mas voltamos sozinhos
Buscamos um lugar que talvez nem exista
Mas seguimos, de alma em alma, de pista em pista

Mas eu te vejo
Deixa eu ser teu
Me perde e encontra
Outra vez aqui
 
O silêncio pesa mais que a discussão
Porque o que mata é o que fica no coração,
Nos perdemos tentando ter razão
Mas a alma pede paz e não aprovação

Quem somos agora, se não tentar
De sermos inteiros, inteiros
Sem fugir, sem mentir, só entender
Talvez consiga te encontrar

Mas Eu Te Vejo
