Strength in Numbers - TheDelta57

There is good and evil in each of us. We see this every day, looking inside ourselves, into our heart, into our soul, into our inner mirrors. Sometimes we see good there, but sometimes evil.  I want to dedicate this track to all the good people who gave their lives in this eternal war. In a sense, this track is a requiem for the passing World, as I knew it.

Inner Mirrors

Bubba Loaf-guitar, vocals
Al Hendry-drums
Brad McCarthy-bass, engineering

Jurassicana!

KUBRICK'S RUBE

A simple "hymn" or "anthem" in the name of fresh beginnings and everything they can bring with them.

The feeling with this track is kind of similar with some previous ones of mine since I so love playing with all these wonderful instruments. 

Played by me with Korg SGProX stage piano and Yamaha Montage 8 synthesizer using the following instruments: 
- Drums: Native Instruments Abbey Road 80s Drummer (with a layered Linndrum snare);
- Bass and lead: AAC Lounge Lizard EP-4 Insomnia;
- Electric piano: Scarbee Classic EP-88s;
- Strings: UVI Orchestral Suite;
- Choir, voices: Arturia Emulator II V;
- Guitar: Native Instruments Session Guitarist - Electric Sunburst.

For New Beginnings

Teth Sin finally seems to be back with a cool wicked track called Gazelle, featuring his friend Luna on vocals/recitation. She decorated with her vivid poetry one of those creepy, dark soundscapes I've been working on these last few months. I sincerely thank her for this amazing contribution, and for her active involvement in the whole creative process of this title. Thanks for taking the time to listen to it.

Uncrowned queens, warrior princes,
the tiger flies in the air.
The flag howls in the cold of the sad west, and blond curls win.
The panther's lost the game, watching the sun.
The Gazelle weeps on her broken leg.
And she's alive

Gazelle | feat. Luna

dearest deer

i haven't seen you in some days

seems so long since you're away

come back

come back

my deer


you lent some magic to my eyes

were you an angel in disguise

come back 

come back

my deer


in the centre of your field

one look at you and i was healed

no predator could catch your grace

or cloud the sunlight on your face


at the dusk and at the dawn

i search for you and find you gone

come back

oh just once 

my deer


i never touched your golden hide

i watched you stepping from inside

come back

appear

my deer

beneath the skies the summer set

you are the one I won't regret 

unto the spinney soft you ran

oh what becomes of deer or man


into the night you drift like dream

I see you drinking from a stream

my deer

my deer

my dearest deer

my deer

oh, my deer

my dearest deer (rpt and fade)

Seems to be an endless repeated theme for me ~ running away to the countryside, and in recent years this has been the Australian wilderness, from the deep south to the far north.

Dedicated to, and featuring Gary Reeves (aka Mountain Songs) on drums and cymbals (remixed) at the start. Banjo, lap slide guitar (acting as bass), beats and vox by myself. This song is for Gary, who has been a wonderful musical compadre for many of us around the world, via this  Soundcloud Village.

Respect and acknowledgement to the Traditional Owners of the lands, waters and skies in this video, both in Australia and New Zealand. Particular thanks to the Yolgnu people of Gapuwiyak who made me feel so welcome during my short visit to Arnhem Land last year.

Looking Up & Down      Song, recording, audio & video July 2023 - Chris Okunbor (APRA)
I was chained to the city, thinking I could fly,
I gazed at the heavens as the clouds rolled high.
Long, long days working to the plan,
I changed my way of living and I left that town.

Now I'm higher than the mountains, looking down below,
rolling miles above cotton candy snow.
Way beyond the city, just going with the flow.
running to freedom to a place unknown.

Got a window seat, got a beer in hand.
Feeling in my heart for this ancient land.
Well, wild rivers snake,  jeweled seas shine.
Djerimanga Songlines are spinning out my mind.

Higher than the mountains, and the madding crowd,
cruising miles above cotton fields of cloud.
Way beyond the city, going with the flow,
running to freedom, to a place unknown.
To a place unknown.

Looking Up & Down

Looking Up & Down  ~ a song for Gary (video link in notes)

Sadly and tragically as apt today as it was when released 50+ years ago. A song of divine retribution, ultimately. This song has been with me all my life and it was a pleasure to do vocals for https://soundcloud.com/thephaige on this. He did all the hard work and created an orchestral, snarling, chaotic, beautiful soundscape which nods to, but doesn't ape the original. 
Not monetising, just for fun
Play as loud as you can, then turn it up more
be good

Cold Rainy Day

Recalling some tequila, love words and more with them in that Ibiza bar, I wondered: “What if Pink Floyd met the spirit of Camarón de la Isla… in my bedroom?” I used lots of guitars, basses, etc. on a 12/8 beat, to enclose 3/4, 6/4 & 8/8 rhythms along.

Letra / Translated Lyrics: EL POZO DE TU AMOR  /  THE WELL OF YOUR LOVE

Fui a abrir el grifo, estaba sediento,  /  I turned on the tap, I was thirsty,
fui a abrir el grifo de tu amor.  /  I turned on the tap of your love.
Fui a abrir el grifo, necesitaba hacerlo,  /  I turned on the tap, I needed to do it,
fui a abrir el grifo de tu amor.  /  I turned on the tap of your love.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el grifo de tu amor.  /  I needed the trap of your love.

Fui a bajar al pozo, me estaba muriendo,  /  I was going into the well, I was dying,
fui a bajar al pozo de tu amor.  /  I was going into the well of your love.
Fui a bajar al pozo, y me caí dentro,  /  I was going into the well, and fell inside,
fui a bajar al pozo de tu amor.  /  I was going into the well of your love.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el pozo de tu amor.  /  I needed the well of your love.

Por bajar al pozo, yo me caí dentro  /  Because of going into the well, I fell inside
y no quiero que nadie llore por mis lamentos  /  and I don’t want anybody to cry for my laments

Caí… por ti.  /  I fell … for you.
Caí… caí… caí por ti.  /  I fell … fell … fell for you.
Caí… a tu pozo, caí por ti.  /  I fell … into your well, fell for you.
Caí… caí… caí… caí a tu pozo por ti.  /  I fell … fell … fell … fell into your well for you.
Caí.  /  I fell.

Me he caído al pozo, y ahora que estoy dentro  /  I have fallen into the well, and now I’m inside
veo que se ha secado nuestro amor.  /  I see our love has dried up.
Vine a beber al pozo, pero el pozo está seco,  /  I came to drink at the well, but the well is dry,
veo que se ha secado nuestro amor.  /  I see our love has dried up.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el pozo de tu amor.  /  I needed the well of your love.
