CITY NIGHTS

This is a mellow jazz infused tune for those walking late night in the streets of the city comtemplating life ...

I got inspired listening to the latest album by Nir Felder, a little nod to him. ;)

Enjoy! -Dan

CITY NIGHTS | Dan van den Berg

No Comply

SILENT TEAR (Sweet Version)

*This image of canned, creamed possum, which I found years ago on the internet, and the idea of canning possum (and possum road kill), has intrigued and fascinated me for some time. As I was writing what I thought was a 'sexy' vocal on top of Oussama's sexy track, this song kept interrupting the process, and so much so that I thought I would get it out of my system to quiet the impulse, and then continue on with the original song.
I actually love possums and think they get a bad rap for being too aggressive. 
Stay tuned for the other version... 

Instrumental by Oussama Arichi
Vocals, Lyrics, Mix: Nadia Selvaggi

no words this time, just disbelief, moving backwards and forwards

this image: seen in march 2011 - and immediately photographed (look at the feet - this guy is not just playing hide and seek)

BTW: I had been thinking about an open collab .... it's been awhile .... but then again: disbelief is such a private and intimate thing .... still, if you want to work with a copy, just message me on soundcloud

putto (the incredibly extended version of an act of incredulity)

From Volume II Side B of the Band of Georges.

Composed 10th January 1983.

Fun Facts:
A Slightly More Optimistic Meteorological Outlook is a weird sounding song.
This is mostly due to an experimental harmony vocal that didn't work particularly well.
This song was performed by Now and is in the key of D minor.
Much like One Thing You'll Never Know, it didn't quite manage to creep into the set of Wud.

* For DIY musicians:

Looking to grow your fanbase? Here's a proven strategy for success. It's a bit time-consuming at first because you need to work at it often. However, the awesome results will make it worth your while:

http://www.wudrecords.co.uk/miscellaneous/be-discovered-on-social-media

That article was published in March 2017. While some of the links may no longer work, the theory absolutely will. Try it for yourself!

* Unfortunately...

Due to brexshit, broken britain, rip-off britain, corruption, lies and bias in the media, bigotry, racism, intolerance, polarisation, the fact that some of our family members would not be allowed to remain post-brexit, state-sponsored child trafficking (yes, that's right, we said it - it's pretty shocking, start reading from here if you don't believe it: https://forced-adoption.com/), an increasing sense of frustration and exasperation, and general total weariness of being treated with nothing but derision, ignorance and contempt by the entire shebang since the early 80s, we decided enough was enough and moved our entire operation from brexeter in the uk to begin our grand brexodus in 2017. We are now brefugees, living in brexile very near the border of the Czech Republic, Austria and Germany. If you live in (the crumbling remains of) the uk, do yourself a favour and leave. The upgrade in life quality will blow your mind.

* What do we stand for as a label?

We support all independent musicians who are doing something we find interesting. Our team members all have formal music education qualifications.

We are against corporate brainwash muzak, their puppet friends in the mass media, and many other corporate activities. We will fight their desecration of music until either it stops or we die. 

We believe in helping others in the face of corrupt laws and a broken system. We are pro democracy, green energy and free speech.

We're politically liberal. We cannot support the republicans, maga or gun violence in the usa. We don't see there's any real difference, other than in name, between the christian far right in the USA and the taliban in Afghanistan.

In the uk we are broadly pro LibDem/Green/Labour/SNP. We are VERY anti-tory, bnp, ukip, and any of their friends and associates. We have no trust at all in the uk right wing press monopoly and the bbc. Beware the bbc and its claims of neutrality. It is the propaganda mouthpiece of the tory party. It even charges a propaganda tax called the licence fee. But we like Test Match Special and Radio 6, so does that make us hypocrites...? Hmm.

We support independence for Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Cornwall. We support the individual and the underdog. We are anti-putin and his war, and pro-Ukraine.

Please notice the careful use of capitals. Capital letters imply respect!

We're only interested in the colour of your soul. Not your skin, hair or socks.

We like cricket! Most of us support Somerset County Cricket Club.
