such a great track Douglas - liked it a lot :)

Marvelous sound colors, nice trip, great job!

So very fine Douglas. I missed this one, but feel better now that I've heard and experienced it's depth.  Lovely flow, man.

In memory of my dear friend Lebo, also drummer of the live band Laybow, here's another track of what turned out to be her final music session.

This is a live session played on nov. 5th 2021.  Lebo passed away on dec. 22nd 2021.

Though we may enjoy her energy embedded in her legacy and memories and in many different other ways, we will never get to interact with her directly again. And that will be missed tremendously. But she WILL be celebrated, this is not a question. 

The picture is her giving a 'goodnight kiss' as a funny pic to the bass player's son, a couple of years ago. This photo brings a smile to my face as it's full of joyful vibes.

me: guitar and voice
PP: bass
Lebo: drums

“Crystal Radio” is 4 track album released in 2022.  The central thread related to how time and life flow in an unpredictable pattern, but within boundaries. Lines are created based on decisions we make, big or small.  How different would someone’s life change based on these decisions?  Even say, stopping or not stopping to have a drink at a water fountain, decades previously. Everything after would have been jostled around, but with what impact?  

Two previous tracks have used this theme. ‘Silica Daughter’ appears on the 2021 project “Cloktacs III” and uses a sample where the question is asked, “You won’t fail me will you?”.  Later in 2021, samples from the 90-year-old movie ‘Back Street’ were repurposed to create a radio play called ‘Back Lane’ which will be aired as part of the 2022 Radiophrenia event in Scotland. The storyline of the movie follows a chain of events set in motion by a simple decision that alters the lives of the characters completely, forever, and ends in a classic, ‘what if’…

Derrière cette apparence d’être, il y a la trace d’autre chose. Mais Quoi ? Il y a beaucoup de pays dans le pays de la mémoire. Où et quand l’arbre de la parole perdu, l’arbre de la parole retrouvé ? La Mère de vie universelle est l’Introductrice au Royaume. Ce qui est au cœur du très harmonieux, du très pur, du très tendre, c’est la Main de vie maternelle. Mais combien ignorent ou feignent d’ignorer qu’elle était l’esprit de ce qui allait arriver ? Ceux qui arrêtent le voyage sont déliés au lieu d’être reliés. La recherche de l’Autre ou d’autre chose est souvent dévoyée par les longues fatigues de soleils dans le mouvement continu des apparences. Les racines de l’arbre spirituel ont été coupées. L’expérience de renaître nous confronte à une dissémination des rêves de l’origine et nous fait basculer dans une autre étendue intérieure, mais qui est celle de la vérité essentielle qui nous a irrigué depuis la concavité matricielle. La Mère est quelque chose de plus grand que le territoire du Père. C’est Elle qui accueille en premier l’enfant qu’elle vient de mettre au monde. La couleur bleue de la Voie Clarté, de la mer et du cosmos les imbibe et les pénètre.

go with the flow

the sensation,
of sound vibration,
on your sweet skin,
am I spinnin',

it's a love spell,
couldn't you tell?
and now you're in range,
don't you you feel strange?

Mandragora,
I adore ya,
how I planned it,
pomegranate,

it's a love spell,
if it goes well,
and if it goes wrong,
it's a sad song,

now it's all gone wrong,
now it's a sad song,
now it's a sad,
now it's a sad...love spell,

it's melodic,
and hypnotic,
how your beauty,
shudders through me,

it's a love spell,
couldn't you tell,
of the cold heat,
in a heart beat,

obrigado,
desperado,
I'm a grail knight,
who's not there quite,

it's a love spell,
if it goes well,
and if it goes wrong,
it's a sad song,

Mandragora
