Mmmm, blueberry jam, actually fig jam is my favourite! But any fruit jam on toasted sourdough with generous amounts of unsalted butter suits my palette just fine :-)

©"Higher Love" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

Imagine how wonderful the world would be if we all made love our only response at all times & under every circumstance! Within every moment & encounter lies an opportunity to choose love, to let our thoughts & actions come only from a place of love. Let us always take the higher path of love rather than be drawn into the reactive & destructive miasma of anger, blame, vengeance, hate, greed, envy & cruelty. As the song puts it: "What the world needs now is love, sweet love!"

©"Gentle Awakening" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

I tried something a little different with this composition, it's just guitar - nothing else!
Sometimes it can feel like we're being gently nudged to wake up: to be more productive, to be more loving, compassionate, forgiving, to change our perspective, to be more humble, to just let go of the old and embrace the new!
I hope you enjoy this "Gentle Awakening"!

©"Neophyte Jazz" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

The reason I titled this composition "Neophyte Jazz" is because I am not a trained jazz musician and yet I find myself drawn to it. So to those of you uninitiated into the world of Jazz I hope your ignorance proves to be bliss; to those who are, please forgive my neophyte indiscretions. I suppose we all start out as neophytes in life, learning new things throughout our lives. Striking out into new and unexplored territory makes our journey that much more satisfying!

After months of exploring unknown territory beyond the western mountains you've returned to the safety and comfort of your village, surrounded by friends and family once again. The elders are happy with your discovery of good fertile lands abundant with food and water. Tonight there will be a big feast to celebrate before preparations are made for the great journey ahead; the whole village will be moving to a new land, a new home. New adventures and opportunities await them all.....

I just got myself a bass guitar, so I'm having a bit of fun now with my own bass lines along with electric guitar! No more trying to imitate a bass on my electric guitar!!

©"Inner Vibe" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

Our inner vibe is manifested outwardly, it's what greets everyone we come into contact with throughout our day. Let's keep our vibe happy, peaceful, positive & loving. Groovy baby :-)

©"Rhythmic Renaissance" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

We all experience numerous renaissance or rebirth experiences throughout our lives as we grow and change, they seem to come and go much like the rhythm of the seasons. It sort of feels like we're collectively on the verge of a global renaissance -  a change in perspective and priorities leading to a new way of living in harmony with each other and the planet! Peace & Love :-)

©"Silk Road Caravan" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

The Silk Road was once the main trade route of the known world for centuries transporting exotic goods as well as diverse cultural ,religious & philosophical ideas. (http://factsanddetails.com/china/cat2/sub90/item1103.html)
I suppose the internet serves as our modern day Silk Road, it acts as a global network of information, ideas & services. I'd say that it has had a far more powerful and comprehensive influence on peoples and nations around the world than the Silk Road ever did. We are certainly more globally connected than we've ever been in human history and have ready access to more information than ever before. However, this has also resulted in greater conformity and global homogeneity too. I think it has become increasingly important to recognise and cultivate individual creativity over conformity to prevailing modes and expected norms. So, as we all interact in today's Silk Road aka the internet, let's preserve our own individuality and stay true to our own inner voice!

©"Melodic Muse" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

The harmony & beauty of Soul is my muse - it's what informs and delights me, and it never fails to surprise and excite me. The more I keep myself spiritually attuned and divinely synced the better the outcome in every aspect of my life. For me composing music is much like writing prose - it's an inner listening expressed outwardly and brought to life. Its more a revealing and unfolding of infinite being than a personal creation; the more I get myself out of the way the clearer the transparency for the beauty & harmony of Soul!

©"The Road Less Travelled" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

Shakespeare wrote, "To thine own self be true...", so don't just follow the norm of expected pathways - be true to your inner voice, be original - and above all else never fear to take the road less travelled; for as the poet Robert Frost said, it has "...made all the difference."

The Road Not Taken
BY ROBERT FROST
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

The Road Less Travelled

©"Groundhog Day" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

If you've seen the movie you'll get the idea; sometimes it can seem like we're on repeat, waking-up each day and going through the motions. Sometimes it can take a bit of effort to keep things fresh - to try something new, look at our life from a different perspective. So here's to breaking out of the rut of routine and sameness and inviting a little spontaneity and originality into our day!

Sometimes it can be as simple as choosing a different time signature; I've realised that I tend to favour 4/4, so for this track I went with 6/8 which gives it a bit of swing!

©"Iberian Interlude" - composed/recorded/produced by Harmonic Fix © Phil Noone

The Iberians (Latin: Hibērī, from Greek: Ίβηρες, Iberes) were a set of people that Greek and Roman sources (among others, Hecataeus of Miletus, Avienus, Herodotus and Strabo) identified with that name in the eastern and southern coasts of the Iberian peninsula, at least from the 6th century BC. The Roman sources also use the term Hispani to refer to the Iberians.
The Iberian culture developed from the 6th century BC, and perhaps as early as the fifth to the third millennium BC in the eastern and southern coasts of the Iberian peninsula.[2][3][4] The Iberians lived in villages and oppida (fortified settlements) and their communities were based on a tribal organization. The Iberians in the Spanish Levant were more urbanized than their neighbors in the central and northwestern regions of the Iberian peninsula. The peoples in the central and northwest regions were mostly Celtic, semi-pastoral and lived in scattered villages, though they also had a few fortified towns like Numantia.[5] They had a knowledge of writing, metalworking, including bronze, and agricultural techniques.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iberians

This is my first recording using my new American Tele & Boss Nextone amp - it's always nice having new toys to play with! I'm not sure why I called it "Transit to Venus" but I suppose Venus is a pretty cool destination!

Transit to Venus

Welcome to Harmonic Fix!
All my own tracks are original compositions, recorded using guitar, bass, voice & keyboard on GarageBand; mixed, mastered & produced by me. It's a hobby that I enjoy and which keeps me sane in this crazy world!
Happy listening & good vibes!

"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them."  Albert Einstein

"The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between."
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

"Music is a world within itself, with a language we all understand."
Stevie Wonder

"How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this bank! 
Here will we sit and let the sounds of music 
Creep in our ears: soft stillness and the night 
Become the touches of sweet harmony. 
Sit, Jessica. Look how the floor of heaven 
Is thick inlaid with patines of bright gold: 
There's not the smallest orb which thou behold'st 
But in his motion like an angel sings, 
Still quiring to the young-eyed cherubins; 
Such harmony is in immortal souls; 
But whilst this muddy vesture of decay 
Doth grossly close it in, we cannot hear it. [Enter Musicians]
Come, ho! and wake Diana with a hymn: 
With sweetest touches pierce your mistress' ear 
And draw her home with music. [Music]
Jessica.
I am never merry when I hear sweet music. 
Lorenzo.
The reason is, your spirits are attentive: 
By the sweet power of music: therefore the poet 
Did feign that Orpheus drew trees, stones and floods; 
Since nought so stockish, hard and full of rage, 
But music for the time doth change his nature. 
The man that hath no music in himself, 
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, 
Is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils; 
The motions of his spirit are dull as night 
And his affections dark as Erebus: 
Let no such man be trusted. Mark the music."
William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice, Scene 5 - Act 1
