THE SEA  Part 4

Got this track from Danke Noetic https://soundcloud.com/dankenoetic
The title reminded me a a recent track of mine, so I decided to keep the title and topic off it. The challenge, to come up with something different yet keep it entertaining. Enjoy fam! Lyrics are below:

Chief With The Smoke------Released 4/1/2020
Danke Noetic Production 

Intro—adlib

Chorus
Catching the buzz with efficiency——LIVE FREE!
chief with the smoke high potency—-THAT’S ME!
a different outlook today serenity——THE KEY!
so let’s get busy pure energy ————HYPED UP!
I’m putting in the work proficiency￼—ON THE CLOCK!

Verse1
Here we go y’all—-better get with it 
so you all know—— I even sweating it 
It’s on the up and up ——as easy as it gets 
this one’s fired up—-for that dope outlet 
the whole room’s foggy —-but I ain’t done yet 
put a towel against the door —-lemme take a deep breath 
gotta fire up some more—-till this high’s legit￼

Verse2
From good to great—-sound on sound
can you relate —-I can’t go wrong 
layered up with the bounce—so let’s get down 
always keeping the faith—-yeah we underground 
don’t hesitate ——just can’t wait 
take a puff pass—-the blunt lemme concentrate 
motivates—that’s profound 
They underestimate the the limitless potential of the leveled up state￼
————-No stress—-no hate—no emotion—no rage
The words fill my page—-like I was spitting them on stage
my mind —-my body totally—-disengage 
my thoughts on double time ——everything I think just rhymes￼
——adlib—-
Coming out on top was a longshot 
no we can we lose you just hit the jackpot 
as the flames grow I grow you all know
heating up the game it’s me Pyro￼

Chorus—-

SHOUTOUT!——————-
Shoutout to my brother Danke—-
The beats energetic —-easy to drop a verse to
Almost poetic —gotta give my man some credit

Secrets | Van Halen

In memory of Eddie Van Halen, Rest In Peace...

In my quest for rediscovering Eddie Van Halen’s music, the music of my youth, I am choosing to make covers of the less obvious material, not the hits or typical guitar shredders choices. I prefer to explore the ones that in my view are cool songs, and also highlight Eddie talent as a songwriter. Of course making these covers pose to me the possibilities of really getting into Eddie’s unique and peculiar playing style when taking the lead. I would have loved to hear a full instrumental album from Eddie, the more so when you hear him experimenting in the studio (yes, there are some recordings where Ed and his brother are testing then new material) without the vocal parts. Songs like Girl Gone Bad are basically instrumentals with some Dave vocals added. Also most albums contain intros and instrumentals where Eddie shows us sneak peaks of his extended capabilities. Imagine a full album like that, maybe the music vault in his home studio is full of it...

Anyways, I am approaching these covers in that light, trying to play them in honor of Eddie as instrumentals, where I feel free to  use the playing style I loved and learned from him in my earliest years playing guitar. Thank you Eddie... For everything...

The Life In A Day

“Dear Tom”

How’s the retirement, Tom?
Why now so quiet, dear Tom?
You’ve a cozy, small place here
Where a man could disappear
	Is that what you’re doing, Tom?

Do you get visitors,
Or only the odd, lost bird?
Friends are a blessing,
But even friendship’s passing.
	Do you have friends, dear Tom?

Where’re your pictures?
Don’t you have children?
Well, didn’t you marry?
Man, you’re just like a pilgrim!
Searching your life
Through the flowers and barbs,
Searchin’ alone under your very own star!

Did you get lonely?
What did you do then?
Did you have family?
Well, why didn’t you call them?
I’m sure they’d have loved
To hear from their uncle—
A family together
Lends old age a pleasure!

Listen’t’me blather, Tom,
I don’t mean to nag ya’, dear Tom.
The truth’s I admire you
And all that you’ve lived through.
	You’ve lived quite a life, dear old Tom

How did you do it, Tom?
What were you trying to prove?
Seventy years
And six careers
	I can understand why you’re so tired...


From a cop to an actor,
From a ref to a coach,
Have you ever considered
All the lives that you’ve touched?
Don’t be so modest
I speak from experience
An honest man like you makes a difference!

I should be going
It’s nearly past sundown
But I’ll visit again
Next time I am in town
Never you doubt it
I will return soon
As sure as I draw breath
And you lie in this tomb...

I won’t forget you...won’t forget you...won’t forget...

"I aimed immediately ,when I saw this Disquiet Junto prompt, to finish it quickly, using found sounds and light synthesizer treatments. I was inspired instantly about this upcoming aural 'quilt', or 'Collage'; Marc's words were My mantra:

'Create a 'musical collage' -- however one might define it, likely -- using the equivalent of cut and paste. When doing so, consider the sense in which your collage might itself become part of a subsequent collage.' [~ Marc Weidenbaum ( https://soundcloud.com/disquiet )]

What won'drous words. I set out to find something I could fragment into little pieces, juxtapose, and sew together, like a quilt, a proper piece of music in a perfect little 'square tidbit' that could be infixed into a larger aural tapestry, and be pixelized, and fragmentory, and, thus, stand on its own without being noticed.

I mangled a very lengthy piano improvisation, and kept but seconds of the original, chopped them up, and juxtaposed them against what a Friend, Prof. Oddfellow [ https://soundcloud.com/prof-oddfellow ], has called 'a mechanical toad.'

I then added synthesizer treatments."

~ Michael
