I really like this song. It has a great melody and arrangement with nice production and excellent YouTube video too.

HEAD OVER MIND (2022)

The vibe strives to capture a glimpse of the dream house genre of the mid-1990s.

Thanks for listening. If you enjoy, pls like and/or repost, which would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

Off The Top Of My Head (Instrumental)

This a remix of the first tune I uploaded on Soundcloud, and greatly enhanced with lyrics and vocal from SolarRae.

Coffee ☕ 

I'm awake dear world...
Where's the dose?
I'm twitching
In need of that warm dark roast
I've been watching this kettle forever boil
Breathe dear boy
Oh grounds
Calm turmoil
We're there
Now pour
Oh mighty morning fix
Check favourite mug
1 sugar now mix
Hmmm
We have our fag
We have our brew
Now into the garden you addict you...

Relief, I'm real, I'm alive, I'm numb
Course through my veins
Cure caffeine come
Tame my bark
Aww save my kids
Brew brave my stark
Snaps get their lid
First of too many
Through this day
From sip to sip
Awww keep hitting that grey
The cure of coffee
The seed of sane
Flicking mind bean
Timed happy pain

Caffeine to brain
Coffee my sane
Caffeine to brain
Coffee my sane

This track is entirely based on a loop of my own sax, played 6 years ago .....;
it felt like the rhythm and feel of this lick was worth it :-)
I created someting completely new out of it with a fresh soprano jam on top :-)

  Howdy everybody, hope all is well with everyone and the Christmas spirit is starting to creep up on you! This song will begin my Christmas themed songs for the remainder of the year! This song is a very odd Christmas song, it was written during Christmas of 2021, the first Christmas during the pandemic! It's about how some folks get depressed during the holidays, we've all experienced it a little or know of someone that's gone through this pain. I wrote a "Big Blue Tree" for them! It's very bizzarre and a little creepy! 
     My initial idea was to write about a parent that had lost a child during the year to COVID and when Christmas rolled around the pain had become too much for them and they fell into a deep depression. That must really be the worst pain of all but some folks do go through this trauma and I had this need to write a song for them. Of course no one would ever know this song was about that unless I told them! The lyrics are pretty vague and kind of nonsensical. I don't know? I guess the pandemic and quarentine were getting to me!! Sometimes I'm too empathetic but most of the times I'm just too pathetic!! 😂It's very quirky and I guess our first Christmas during the pandemic affected me more than I wanted to admit!🤔 Depression hits you in many different ways! I wasn't lonely depressed but that year was very depressing for all of us, I'm sure.

      I had fun making the video, creepy as it was. I put it together last year and tried to keep it as strange and as eerie sounding as I could!  Thanks for listening and watching and Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! Oh and warning! Don't skate too close to the Big Blue Tree, you may turn into a Christmas Coyote!! 🥶
     
“BIG BLUE TREE”

LIFE AIN'T WHAT IT USED TO BE,    
NOW WE'RE SINGING AND DANCING,  
BY THE BIG BLUE TREE,      

SAY IT WITH ME ON THE COUNT OF THREE,    
WE'LL HOWL AT THE MOON LIKE THE COYOTES,    
ONE, TWO, THREE,

CAN YOU HEAR THEM PLAYING THERE?

AFTER ONE YEAR IN QUARANTINE,   
THE SEA IS YELLOW AND THE SKY IS GREEN,    
GREEN AND MEAN,
 
IN THE RED GLOW OF THE SUN,   
OVER THE PURPLE HILLS WE'LL RUN,    
ONE, TWO, THREE,

DO YOU SEE THEM PLAYING THERE?
     
LIFE AIN'T WHAT IT USED TO BE,     
NOW WE'RE LAUGHING AND CRYING,    
BY THE BIG BLUE TREE.

**I NEVER USE A.I. IN ANY OF MY SONGS OR VIDEOS!** Hi everybody, my name is Jim and I’m a songwriter, I've written over 300 songs, I play guitar, bass, piano, and am an okay lyricist.  I play all types of music and have my own recording studio.  I use no A.I. or DAW or any computers to make my songs or my videos, all the instruments are played by me live on a multitrack studio recorder and Charlie, my vocalist, sings most of my songs and also plays the Harmonica on several tracks. I use video clips from Motion Array or Pexals or Pixabay for my videos. I'm not a pro or a great musician but I do what I can with the tools that I have! I belong to the "Keep Humans In Music Movement" (KHMM)! We're NOT perfect but we're REAL! Thanks everyone for listening and the world needs more music now, real music made by HUMANS not MACHINES! So let's all sing a song with our own voices, please! I do not consent to any of my songs or videos being used or sampled or lifted in any way or fashion. Take care!👍😎✌🏼.
