Not My Neighborhood
by Nadia Selvaggi

This, this, this is not my neighborhood!
Where is Williamsburg, Brooklyn --
my crime-ridden, filthy, spray-painted 'hood?

Where is Eastern District High School?
Where is that old school cool?
Where is all the red brick?
Where are all the addicts itchin' for a fix?

I don't know this place at all
I don't smell my Grandma's moth or meat balls
Corporate greed, thy will be done,
as it is in Manhattan and the City of London

Mr. Global's mercenaries killed our low rent, 
our culture, and our authenticity
Damn the L train gentrifiers!
Damn the cold glass and bitter steal!

Bamonte's, Fortunato Brothers, Nunzio and Sons,
survived New York's perpetual reinvention
Tell me craft beer drinking, Hipster trust fund --
where is my 11211?

Not My Neighborhood by Garddwr Porffor & Nadia Selvaggi (w The Windscale Blues Experiment)

Song about love as a shelter against inclemency of life (translated lyrics below).

By means of some weather sounds, I oppose precise dark parts to more colored ones, with serious work till 3:25 when I had fun jamming, so you can skip to 4:20 & enjoy great outro !!

Clarinet was borrowed from my sister for summer practice. Reed & keywork managing is difficult for a beginner, & home cohabitance was set on serious risk, but with painful effort I got something presentable, or so I hope, as not willing to repeat soon...

Pic: edited eyefish photo taken by my other sister during one of my hard summer rehearsals.

LETRAS / LYRICS

ENTRA SIN MIEDO / COME IN WITHOUT FEAR

Fuera hay truenos; / Outside there are thunders;
entra sin miedo. / come in without fear.

Fuera hay viento; / Outside there is wind;
entra corriendo. / come rush in.

Soy tu refugio protector; / I am your protective shelter;
entre mis brazos estarás mejor: / whithin my arms you’ll be better:
ven a buscar mi calor. / come to find my warmth.

Dentro hay fuego; / Inside there is fire;
entra a verlo. / come in to see it.

Dentro te espero, / Inside I wait for you,
entra sin miedo. / come in without fear.

Cast of Characters:

Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – guitar solo

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – rhythm guitar, lap steel, vocals and lyrics for the verses, vocal harmony in the bridge
Composition – The Eclectic Collective

 This song began with a bass part that Jeff came up with and shared with Stephen, who had added some fiery guitar and foundational rhythm guitar to it. However, it languished on his digital shelf for many months as two parts, until he recently remembered that he had it. So, he decided to share it with the rest of the group. We were salivating, all of us, when we heard Jeff's bass line, so we began with Ken laying in the groovy drums and the tight, driving percussion, which propels the entire song. Once we had a beat, we decided to edit the part to include the break you hear about a minute into it. Mark took on that task, and deftly added the bass in that section, too. 
  Josh was up next, and decided to add a rhythm guitar inspired by Talking Heads. Once he had done that, he started hearing a simple, catchy melody in the main verse part, too, so he came up with some simple lyrics and recorded the vocals for that. At the same time this was happening, Ken also came up with some lyrics and a vocal melody for the breakdown part, which he added. After Ken had added his vocals, Josh added a harmony part on them. He also added the lap slide melody you hear in that section, as well. 
  JJ was next up to bat, laying in the breathtaking organ throughout. He also backdropped a canvas of synthesizer throughout and put in some electric piano too. Tez came along not long after and added the ripping guitar solo in the jam section. Once everyone had added their parts, it was up to Stephen to produce, mix, and master it. He arranged and added some length to it, then mixed it in his usual expert manner.
  This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with Jeff, though Stephen has worked with him in the past, and we were all fans of his music, and thus very excited for the chance to make music with him. Hopefully, this will be the first of many.
  We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. If you comment, please share, too. 

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:
The trees talk to each other
They send messages through the breeze
There's magic all around us
If we look for it, we can see
 
Original lyrics by K2 and the Three:
Hey, how you feeling about love and lust
Hey how you dealing with all the lies you trust
We're here to be clear
Not a walk in the dark

A little woweluja
Little halleluja

Wowlelujah (Eclectic Collective) - feat. Jeff Roberts

Daniel Pruett wrote and sang the verses - 
built your walls of brick and stone high enough to trip and fall fall and float and splash and swim along built your boat of tar and wood float enough to make it home make it there where you were born on land search your house no one is home find your paper cut out hearts move along lets move along along dress up tight for the walk meet her at the trail past twelve she used to stand right here for you stand right here burn your boat along the walls throw her blood into the squall watch a match catch up the wind start up, start up again.

『おれは罪人』
作詞・作曲 / Papyrusたくや

信じたければ信じればいいし
信じたくなければ信じなければいい

新興宗教に蝕まれて
優しくなった親父がいて
何とかっていう通販サイトに騙されて
とても幸せそうなおじいちゃんとおばあちゃんがいるんだよ

お母さんはいつも不機嫌そうな顔をしていた
だけど時々優しいからさ
憎み切れなくて

おれには兄弟がいる
必ず夢を叶えるんだって言って体に刻み込んだ君を
今でも応援してるよ

小さい頃におれが家族から受けたことが虐待だというのなら
安心してね

もう罪なんてどこにもないよ
あなたを裁ける人なんていない
心にひとつだけあるのはおれの罪の意識
それだけ

そう おれは罪人なんだ
そう おれは罪人なんだ

仕事だって続かなければ人付き合いも苦手で
愛想笑いもできないおれだ

15の頃に高校をやめて
それから何回窓ガラスを割って喧嘩をした？
人に迷惑を何度かけた？

この罪をどこまで持ってけばいいんだろう
罪悪感があれば恐い夢を出してしまうっていうけれど
おれはこれから何度恐ろしい夢を見ればいいの？

何度恐ろしい夢を

世間とは個人 夢とは鏡
塗り替えられた世界を今日も生きる
死ぬか生きるか それはおれが決める事
空き缶集めてでも生きて行くさ

生きて行くさ
生きて…

こうやっていつもおれは人のせい
投げやりになってしまうんだ
ゴミ拾いの前に何かできるはず

もう少し
もう少し
もう少し

おれは罪人

Birdcage Blues -Blowback- by The Windscale Blues Experiment

When a remix contest was organised for my friend Anna B May's lovely ambient/cinematic track "Wanderer"  I didn't hesitate to take part, as it's easily one of my favourite tracks of hers, with a lead melody that could haunt you for days. 

I decided to go way out of my comfort zone with this one, and do a trancy remix. Definitely something new for me!

That being said, I hope there's people that enjoy these sounds, and I definitely had a blast remixing :)

A message of appeasement to all our American "Red or Blue" friends.
We in Europe have been following this election closely, and in many ways it struck us as surreal.
But now, we hope for reconciliation, for appeasement, because the world's greatest democracy must show us a nobler and more respectful image.
The free world still needs a strong America to contain the nations that are moving away from an indispensable area of democracy and freedom. The environmental state of the planet cannot afford to wait.
The essential stake which must unite us all lies in the safeguard of our beautiful blue planet.
Long live America !

Un message d'apaisement à tous nos amis américains "Red or Blue".
Nous européens avons suivi de près cette élection, et à bien des égards elle nous a semblé surréaliste.
Mais désormais, nous formons l'espoir d'une réconciliation, d'un apaisement, car la plus grande démocratie mondiale doit nous montrer une image plus noble et plus respectueuse.
Le monde libre a toujours besoin d'une amérique forte à contenir les nations qui s'éloignent d'un indispensable espace de démocratie et de liberté. L'état environnemental de la planète ne peut se permettre d'attendre.
L'enjeu essentiel qui doit nous tous nous unir réside dans la sauvegarde de notre belle planète bleue.!

Vive l'Amérique.

--- Appeasement ---

You feel the blue wave,
that invades your mind,
the start of a new age,
red or blue, the same line,

Forget the bitterness, hatred,
Come share the joy and the bread,

forget this nightmare,
we are not at war,
put away your gun,
and enjoy the sun,


In our space of freedom,
she is the family home,
In our space of freedom,
she is the family home,
In our space of freedom,
she is the family home...

Appeasement

Who knows what's going on when the paws start twitching and the whiskers go into overdrive. Then the rapid motions subside and all is calm - for a while.

I have a lot of faith that people can be strong enough to recognize where they have done (or are doing) harm and make sincere amends. I also believe that people have the power to heal and forgive wrong doings. It takes great strength to walk together through the fire of our pains and come out the other end holding hands, recognizing and honoring our differences while acknowledging and celebrating our similarities.  

May everyone get a chance to break bread together, enjoy some wine, and share some laughs. 

Thanks again to Calebass, Jon, and Janine for joining me together on a 3rd track. We make a great team! It was really fantastic to have Chris O and Belial Pelegrim finally join a track on my page. Chris O and Belial are two SoundCloud legends in my opinion. I am so grateful to be making music with all my favorite people. If only I had more time to make music with all of my favorites on the cloud. Who knows, maybe I do!

And massive thanks to Russ and the Chaos Cookhouse for baking my bread in their oven once again. If it wasn’t for them, I would only be serving balls of dough.

Lyrics:

A rising hurricane blowing out the old
I feel it’s heading my way
Yes, a rising hurricane, heading my way
A rising hurricane blowing out the old
I just feel it’s blowing this way

The wind blows wicked by my side of the street

It’s heading my way

You better blow that away

We hunkered down for the storm breaks 
Sat by the heath till our bones ached
Kept those embers burning for what’s at stake 
Canned those apples for a future bake 
When we can walk across the street 
And give a hand shake 
To our neighbors where the wind don’t take 
A life’s time just to make up for
Past time’s big mistakes  

Well rise-up hurricane and blow out the old
Trade them for a mighty dawn

The wind blows wicked by my side of the street

Push aside the night shades to break a deal
Trade them for a mighty dawn

Even though things still ain’t right
We got deep history still within sight
And at times things can be downright 
Enough to incite our outright 
Deepest ugliest version of contrite 
I still cling tight 
To that hope for that bright light 
That one day things will be made right 
But it ain’t gonna be if we just hang tight 
Word 

The wind blows wicked by my side of the street

A rising hurricane blowing out the old
I just feel, it’s a-heading our way
Push aside the night shades
Break another deal
Trade them for a mighty dawn

lyrics:
Once upon a winter
It seems so long ago
My one and only love and I
Fell down upon the snow
And as the dusk was falling
From our gray and goose down sky
We heard the old cathedral bells
Ring out our lullaby

Snow angel, snow angel
Someday I'm gonna fly
This cold and broken heart of mine
Will one day wave goodbye
Goodbye to this cruel wicked world
And all the tears I've cried
Snow angel, snow angel
I'll meet you in the sky

The rumors of a distant war
Called my true love's name
He packed his leather suitcase
And spoke no word of blame
We walked a while together
I tried to hide my fear
He told me not to be afraid
And whispered in my ear

Snow angel, snow angel
Someday I'm gonna fly
This cold and broken heart of mine
Will one day wave goodbye
Goodbye to this cruel wicked world
And all the tears I've cried
Snow angel, snow angel
I'll meet you in the sky

They brought my love home from the war
In a cart pulled by white mules
The Christmas bells rang out that day
Oblivious as fools
And as the snow began to fall
I kissed his frozen face
They told me in his woolen coat
His last few words were placed

Snow angel, snow angel
Someday I'm gonna fly
This cold and broken heart of mine
Will one day wave goodbye
Goodbye to this cruel wicked world
And all the tears I've cried
Snow angel, snow angel
I'll meet you in the sky

This track has been recorded and produced by Teth Sin (@teth-sin) for the Open Call to COVER A SONG BY A 70'S OR 60'S BAND organized by the electronic/experimental netlabel CIAN ORBE (https://humanfobia.jimdofree.com/cian-orbe-netlabel/), and it's been included in the compilation "V/A - 60's/70's Bands Tribute"  (https://archive.org/details/va-60s70s-bands-tribute) - November 28, 2020. This version released on SoundCloud features an alternate mix and mastering of the track included in the compilation.
Big thanks to Sábila Orbe (@sabila-orbe - @humanfobia - @filmy-ghost) for including this cover despite having been quite a rushed job.  I hope John Lennon won’t roll over in his grave… But I’m afraid his soul has endured much worse than this, during these last 40 years. May he rest in peace.
