Hold The Line

Hold The Line - Vartch Ft. winkandwoo

"A musical vision of Spring, a time of renewal and growth. From out of the cold ground comes a promise of warmer days. Then April showers herald an explosion of life, shorter nights and lighter days full of the sound of birdsong. As the season moves on, there is a slowing of change as Summer draws near."

Description

Spring, finds me trying to express, in music, my feelings about this season. Below is a attempt at doing this in words too. This is the third of four orchestral pieces that describe the four temperate seasons of the year.

Spring
The waiting is over. The Winter chill recedes and there is a tacit acceptance to the demands of birth and rebirth. A sign of fresh green poking through the ground is a welcome sight, a simple signal that all will be well.

Very quickly, in a sudden rush, there is life in the hedgerows and the sound of birds heralding a new season. One of life and growth and warmer days and rainy times, but overall a feeling of hope.

You have longed for this moment, a chance to put away your Winter clothes and feel the sun upon your face again. The riot of change will continue as the life-giving sun takes longer marches through the sky.

Spring of all seasons is a time to revel in simply feeling alive.

I really wanted a lightness to this piece and it took me a while of tweaking to get what I heard in my head. I didn't want it to sound like Autumn, or Summer, both weightier seasons, but not as thin and austere as Winter. So this piece is mostly woodwinds and strings with hardly any percussion

I didn't need bottom-end, I needed more focus in the melody interaction and there was a missing link. It needed to be light and airy and what else says light and airy like the harp. After about a day working on the harp part it started to give the feel I wanted. The harp glissandi were useful as bookends to the section it features in. 

The piece begins with an echo of Winter and the bell tree, the piccolo and alto flute describe the first signs of growth before giving way to pizzicato strings of April Showers. The harp section is a semi-formal counterpoint section with the harp melody inter-woven with the solo violin in my attempt to describe the rapid growth of the Season. The final section brings in the brass and is a calmer end to the piece that hints at the glory of Summer just around the corner.

Spring

Get out on the land and find your own freedom

This is a song i wrote inspired by current events and our loss of freedoms and human rights,its a protest track but the lyrics are open to
interpretation.
[out here in the fields i fight for my meals -Pete Townsend ]
[power to the people-John lennon]
If music and writing songs has taught me anything its that music and words can reach and enlighten people and hopefully cause changes for the better ...heres to a peaceful protest and the future [jim april 2021]
lyrics 
Taking away your rights for a peaceful protest
they tried to make you part of the test
Dont believe the lies your told on the bbc
or a digital screen for impossible dreams
you gotta take it for a while and not hold back
shouldnt live in fear of your own land
all those big conspiracies and pharmaceutical brands
in your hands
chorus
in the end when a dream goes bad what will become of you
if you think to hard these illusions of freedom
will get inside of you

taking away the reason for a peaceful life
we are all balanced on the edge of a knife
oh beautiful freedom your like a long lost friend 
makes me sit and wonder when its gonna end
it haunts the shadows and the empty rooms
cant see the footprints where the flowers used to bloom
if you had a choice you would be over the moon 
and not too soon

power to the people
you gotta make a change
looking at the land below
everything is dis-enganged
power ti the country
your fate is in your hands
dont let the bastards grind you down
reach out and all join hands

written and produced by Jim Manser 2021 a nu-clear records production

This is an arrangement using commercially available sound packs, samples, and loops. A lot of tweaks and modifications. (Seemingly endless!) I did not create the original samples myself, but I did make the selections, and the arrangement, mix and mastering are all uniquely produced by SOS. Hope you enjoy, be happy, and dance!

It is a collaboration of band sound and synthesizer. It is a music with a mysterious chord progression.A Ryukyu scale appears in the middle of the music.

LEFT HANDER

Wrote this song while vacationing in Acapulco. I wanted to include “you know - you know I love you” in spanish in the song. So I asked the Hotel Chamber Maid how to to say this in her language. She started giving me strange & weird looks until I realized she thought I was trying to make some moves on her. Then I explained to her that it was for a song chorus and everything was cool!



MEXICAN LOVE SONG 

Flying high - laying low in Mexico
watching the winds blow - incognito
there she was just walking on the sands
her eyes telling me “Hey You The Man”
she took - she took - she took me by surprise
the look - the look - the look of love was in her eyes.

Tu sabes - tu sabes 
que te quiero - que te quiero 
and
you know - you know - you know
you know - you know - you know
that I love you
que te quiero.

Acapulco shining on her skin
“Hey Amigo you wanna swim with the dolphins?”
You sit next to the pool - you know you’ll get splashed
your hopes and dreams they won’t get cashed
well feel like I’ve died - I’ve died and gone to heaven
she’s my good-luck charm  24/7.

Tu sabes - tu sabes 
que te quiero - que te quiero 
and
you know - you know - you know
you know - you know - you know
that I love you
que te quiero.

DOCTOR ROBERT’S APPLE

I’ve been a Beatles’ fan since my 2 brothers started buying their records in the early 60’s, not only because their sound completely revolutionized my attitude to music but also because of their take on life.  They were so completely unafraid to say what they thought, a stance that not only resonated with me but with the youth of the entire world.  Theirs was a cultural force that changed everything, a thread indelibly stitched into the fabric of the way we live now.  For that, I think we owe them so much.  Best band there ever was, is and always will be. 
Again, I owe a huge debt of thanks to Hans for making this song everything I wanted it to be.  His talent never ceases to amaze me, something I always say but which is nonetheless so true. 

Wanted to let you all know that the Cripple Club album is finally ready for release.  There is a free download available on BandCamp which, considering it comprises 31 tracks, we’ve split into 2 volumes.  Just click on these links and enter 0.00 in the payment box. 
Volume One: https://crippleclub.bandcamp.com/album/another-zero-volume-one-2 
Volume Two:  https://crippleclub.bandcamp.com/album/another-zero-volume-two-2
If you’re interested, there is also a double disc, vinyl version (18 tracks, which is all we had room for), which we were lucky enough to have mastered at Abbey Road Studios – and it does sound rather good if we do say so ourselves.  There’s also a CD version, containing the full complement of tracks, which comes packaged with a 24 page booklet.  If anyone is interested in obtaining either of these, just message us and we’ll let you know how much it will cost to send it to you, wherever in the world you happen to be.
Deep apologies are due to those we’ve already promised a copy to.  The lockdown has made getting to the Post Office very tricky but, rest assured, we plan on getting these to you very, very soon.  Thank you so much for your patience.
And thanks to all for your continuing support.  We never take it for granted.

Lyrics:
Brian and George bringing life to a quartet 
A liberation of art with a social pop 
Hard day’s night but love me do as always
Starting at the start not letting yesterday drop

Chorus:
They had a spell on me
Nothing else would be the same
They had a spell on me
More than music kept me riding the train

Moore, Chapman, Newby, Sutcliffe and Best     
Couldn’t come together to keep hanging on
But who would imagine this revolution of four
Would get a ticket to ride and give freedom to John

Chorus

The day tripper moved from Liverpool to Abbey Road 
Up the long and winding road from the cavernous Casbah
I don’t want to spoil the party but it’s hard to believe
 I got to drive your car through green, red and amber

Chorus

Combining music with life and a twist and shout
Showed so many good times with a freedom of thought 
A green apple a day persuading Doctor Robert to stay
Here comes the sun preventing a narcotic drought 

They put a spell on me
Nothing else would be the same
They put a spell on me
More than music kept me riding the train
