Socks with holes are a metaphor that imitates "I'm in fashion" and feels embarrassed to abandon my personality in music production.
After the announcement of the previous work, a Japanese woman advised me, "If you can't throw away socks with holes, you should wear two socks on top of each other."
-------------------------------------------------
I have to overcome the restrictions of the brilliant works that have already been disseminated, and show my creativity, though scarce, to change them into new experimental ones. I decided to start from my own composition method and use the fashion for a little seasoning. It's embarrassing, but it doesn't stand out if you stack two.

Take your disco lights
Out tonight
Send your laserbeam
into the sky

Lord I'm lonely
But the beat will guide me
back to the place
where we can be together

Unbox your dancing shoes
don't tie them too loose
Emoji, gives me a sign 
that all is still fine?

Here comes the disco king
watch him do his thing
like a chachacha
before the camera

There 's a tendency
in the tinder scene
that if you dance alone
you get stuck in the zone

But I don't mind
as long as I can find
a disco light
shining through

One Leg Dancing

Disco Lights

From an early age I was fascinated by the music that always played through my childhood home.
My father was a musician my brother is still a touring and recording artist . So music was just an important way of life.
Technology as changed so much it’s ridiculous what we can do now compared to back then. It still blows my mind especially when you have grown with it and fully understand the difference.
Unlike my kids who just think I’m a dinosaur but yet still listen to my music influences. 
The first single I ever bought was Ever  Fallen In Love by The Buzzcocks and the B-side was Just Lust . If you comment let me know your first single. 
 I always played the Bsides as much as the Asides and would make an album up on a TDK 90 dedicated to them.
Memory’s of looking out of the window with my Sony Walkman listening to the cassette. Passing time to get to our holiday destination. 
This song is a tribute to the vinyl Bsides that influenced me along the way . With a summer feel to catch what’s left of it.  🌞


To The B -Sides ( lyrics )

My Blue 7inch stacking portable record player 
I could flip the hits for a Bside multi layer 
Its all the rage and its so strange 
How technology as really changed 


Chorus 

That ever to happened to the B-sides
I was listening travelin to the seaside 
That ever happened to the B-sides
Recorded On a TDK 
Ready for my holiday 
What ever happened to the B-sides x2

I was the Ultimate bedroom rockstar
If I could bottle it up in The Jam jar 
All this was is just  dreams of children 
But I would  always love to flip to 
The b-side of the hit 

Chorus 

Into finishing on 

Flip the hit x4

To The B-Sides ~ Conscience Of Kings

A way into darkness…

Dark Shift

This is my first song using only eurorack modular synth gear for all the sounds (except the beat, from a "toy" Yamaha PSS-50, & the guitar solo*).  It's also the first in decades with me doing "real" singing, haha, & whistling, wth?! ;)  It needed vocals so I made up some lyrics (below) which fit the creepy mood.  Don't worry, it's not autobiographical.

*Special thanks to Allan Abrenica for performing the guitar solo! - I composed it on a synth but it needed a real guitar.  Check him out https://soundcloud.com/lost-ph and https://soundcloud.com/ageara/tracks. Thanks as well to Steve Newland https://www.thelightafternoon.com/ for his generous assistance with noise reduction for the PSS-50 & Clint Collins https://soundcloud.com/user-836903146 for finding the perfect song image: "Hand with Reflecting Sphere" by Maurits Cornelis Escher (colorized).

Lyrics:
You, looking at me, want to know what I'm thinking
But I won't tell you oh no
Won't tell you
None of your business

Do, do you really think
There's the slightest chance
That we will ever agree on anything?

No, you're not my kind of person
No you're not my kind you see
This is just the way it is
Try not to blame it all on me

So I'm blocking your transmission?
Can you forgive this imposition
On all of your well-laid plans?
Shame on me
So inconvenient

No, you're not my kind of person
No you are not my kind you see
This is just the way it is
Try not to blame it all on me

No, you are not my kind of person
No you are not the kind I need
This is just the way it is
Try not to bleed all over, me...
