Next stop the future! All aboard for a sensational track that gets the blood pumping.  This project was short sweet and to the point and it knew what it wanted to be early on. Drums and lead from the Synthstrom Deluge, chords and melody from the Arturia Microfreak, arpeggiated bass from the Novation Ultranova. Music video on YouTube

Truth…
by Anton Etch 2022
- a rough demo from the 'Simple & Strange' series -

Truth comes in flashes
snapshots and ashes
rises like a phoenix
floats to your ceiling
shimmers and hovers
at four in the morning
truth comes in flashes
from fragments forming

Truth appears
it's not excavated
it can't be figured
or cooked or created

Truth emerges
in surprising places
the howling vagrant
and unsafe spaces

Truth isn't born
fully formed
you have to glean it
from shards ‘n storms

Truth waits
It delivers no warning
reveals itself
to those in mourning

Truth doesn't care
who the hell you are
what you drive
pauper or czar

Truth is earned
it can't be bought
you have to want it
more than what you got

Truth comes in flashes
in rags and in patches
the daughter of time
slow as molasses 
or quick as quicksilver
in sparks and splashes
in fragments and facets
in mixes and mashes

Truth is the last
guest at the weddin'
sits at the back
foldin' a napkin

…less in words 
more in actions
never shouts 
ignores the factions

…tip of a hat
tap of a finger
there's truth in
the voice of the singer

Truth in 
the barkin' dog
the wasp sting
the walk in the dark

Truth lurks 
in the shadows
it stalks
your tomorrows

You can try 
forever to avoid it
deny, defy,
or blindfold it

The enemy 
of fantasy
the surrender 
of hope...

...truth is 
no story.
It doesn't need 
glory

Truth comes in flashes
snapshots and ashes
rises like a phoenix
floats to your ceiling
shimmers and hovers
at four in the morning
truth comes in flashes
from fragments forming

EXIT WALTZ (FOR A FILM)

Dear friends - a lot of ????????

Trapped in Tunnels

The people are trapped in the dark tunnels away from home
It is so dark as the middle of the night
and the air becomes so light as the hours are passing by
one may wonder what they are doing in this horrible place
They have heard that these tunnels should be safe
now when the bombs are falling down on them

The hours are passing and the kids feel so bad
They don’t want to die here, they hope to be released
but their mothers try to give them some comfort so they can stand
the hunger, thirst and nightmares in these dangerous times
I’ve seen pictures that can break every heart
and it’s terrible to just watch the scene

It is so strange to experience all this cruelty
that is shown by a country of today
one may wonder how it is in the brain of their boss
who seems to lack a compassion for human lives
he lets canons and rockets kill them all
and he cannot have a healthy brain

Trapped in Tunnels (in Mariupol)

This set of SWWs was written in memory of a wonderful singer, teacher and friend, Diana Walkley. Here, significant reference is made to Elgar's Music Makers - a score of great insight, I now understand, into a lonely composer: a true 'dreamer of dreams'
