Chalk It Up to Distortion

Here's the track I wrote for Sinecraft volume 3. It's in 17-tone equal temperament, mostly using the Blue[9] scale (222222221) with some slight chromaticism at certain points. I hope it kind of has the aura of a disembodied voice...

Watching From Sin Valley (17-EDO)

If you have a hobby that allows you to retreat from the world and the hustle and bustle, you can consider yourself lucky. We have our music for that. Whether you compose music yourself, play a musical instrument, or simply listen to music, you have something that allows you to retreat and recharge, even though music itself can be demanding. This song is a tribute to “our secret downstairs room” where our music becomes reality. The song is 100% improvised. Each of us played his/her musical instrument and created this part: Benjamin E-guitar and E-bass, Michelle 1st/main piano, Jasmin strings and the 2nd piano. All of us wrote the lyrics and created the melody for the lyrics.
Our secret downstairs room
Our secret downstairs room, our secret.
We sneak down the stairs tonight/ our secret downstairs room, our secret.
 Escape and get out off sight/Our secret….
To the secret room we have the key/Our secret…
A place of magic we wanna be/Our secret…

The walls echo our sound. Guitars played and drums pound. 
We play all our songs no one’s ever heard and the music starts to take over our world.

A place of magic and mystery where our own music can set us free
The guitar played hard, piano so soft, you hear our sound also above

Our secret downstairs room, our secret.
We play and the music gets loud/Our secret…
In this room we let it all out/…
We can Rock until the dawn/…
We hope this room it will live on/…

This place is more than just a room. It’s where we come to resume.
We play all our songs no one’s ever heard and the music starts to take over our world.

It’s our own small secret getaway where we can forget the hectic of the day.
The guitar so  fast, piano so slow, that’s our own little private show.

We play all our songs no one’s ever heard and the music starts to take over our world….

"In 1986 - after two years of militancy in a couple of Renaissance and Baroque music ensembles - I started composing music again and around 1988 - together with a group of friends and colleagues - I recorded a part of it. In 2008 I released that bounch of tracks on the American label Webbed Hand Records. Some of these pieces had already set out on the way, others had remained - as they say - in the drawer. However, they show the initial phase of a musical research that is still in progress, despite having crossed new roads and traveled new paths, meeting new travel companions. I hope you will find it interesting."

Lyrics

Like every morning,
I turn on the radio,
like every morning,
Bad news makes the show,
depressing grayness,
absent brightness,

war wins everywhere,
the climate change,
floods everywhere,
drought even stranger,

Before it's too late,
let's sing of love,
before it's too late,
let's pray to the lord god,
let's forget this nightmare,
let's stop all these wars,

Alone glimmer of hope the Music

Song about Saturn's wonderful moon Titan!

3. It's Gonna Rain Today

Dont Ever Look At The Face Of God

i see you all
you sang to me
surrender to me
all your shame
i will burn it away
surrender to me
all your pain
i will kiss it to flames

So this is the end of my Guitaranuary adventure. And also the end of Winter so I decided to compose something that would reflect that. The days will be getting less cold and hopefully more time will be spent out in the sun.
   This was the track where I was most worried I wouldn't get it done before the end of the day. There's even a section where I had to complete part of a lead line in two parts, punching in the second part. Never had to do that before, but time was my enemy!
 
  Thank you to everyone who listened to me during the last month. I'll probably be taking a break from recording for a while, unless four hundred ideas pop into my head at the same time, as tends to happen. But I'll definitely be recording more stuff later in the year. Until then, all the best.

You’ll be remembered someday
Forever trapped in the play
Like a cold December Day
You’ll be home-schooled away
. . . Home-schooled away
You'll be home-schooled away
 
And when you find true love
The bastards will have their say
Chasing their tails and setting their sails
Like a castaway 3x

Date with protest, you gave a shout
Mixing your feelings and laughing about
Torn by the way you held your own barking dog
And pressured friends to Network jobs

I’m was feeling kind of jaded
Self-effaced and hated
Selfish and frustrated
and never created
 
Ran through the back door and held the key
Wind screamed through the dusty screen
Scores of crows were circling the sky
The omens were bad and the adults always lied
 
I’m was feeling kind of jaded
Self-effaced and hated
Selfish and frustrated
and never created

You’ll be remembered someday
Forever trapped in the play
Like a cold December Day
You’ll be home-schooled away
. . . Home-schooled away
. . . Home-schooled away
 
And when you find true love
The bastards will have their say
Chasing their tails and setting their sails
Like a castaway 10x

My new album "Dreams of the Byzantines" is streaming June 13th, 2025. Please check out my new website darrencsullivan.com for videos and albums to purchase.

Thanks for the kindness and support.

I have a great distaste for not making music.

Here you’ll find all of the songs I have written , my improvisations, as well as a good few weird experiments. I aim to keep changing my music, hopefully never getting stuck in a musical rut or staying in the same genre too long. When I started it was all one guitar stuff (no overdubs), and very bad sound production (i.e, no sound production!), but since then I’ve started adding more instruments such as drums bass and saz and I’m slowly but surely getting better at sound production. And last but not least, I am slowly but surely getting into singing. I welcome all feedback whether good or bad. Or indifferent. I also want to hear from those who are apathetic about my music! I recorded three albums:

Lifespan (2018):
soundcloud.com/user-429211267/sets/lifespan
The Telescope (2019):
soundcloud.com/user-429211267/sets/the-telescope
On these first two there is no sound production as such because I didn’t understand that stuff at the time, then I recorded this one:

 Argentavis Magnificens (2021):
soundcloud.com/user-429211267/sets/electric-juniper-saz
at which point I was finally starting to get my head around the sound production thing. I’m currently working on an album called Neurotypical Empire, Vol 1: 2244, the first song of which I have released:

https://soundcloud.com/user-429211267/neurotypical-empire-vol-1-2244-edit-1-export-1

All are welcome here, except of course bigots. If you are racist, homophobic or transphobic, I respectfully ask that you go away.
