Fantastic song! Love the guitar, vibe and fabulous vocals!

Cool track! Love the performance here, sounds great!

Voici une pièce que j'ai faite il y a un certain moment avec Gary Courtland-Miles (Anomon).  Il m'a demandé si je pouvais ajouter des orchestrations sur une de ses magnifiques pièces de piano.  Sur le thème de l'Amour et l'importance de sa place dans nos vies.

Here's a piece I did some time ago with Gary Courtland-Miles (Anomon).  He asked me if I could add orchestrations on one of his beautiful and heartfelt piano pieces.  This is all about Love and the importance of it in our lives.

It's Something Like This - with Anomon

The end is the beginning. If singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Tamar Berk’s 2020 solo debut, "The Restless Dreams of Youth" was about -- in her own words -- “looking back at who I was and where I was then, and that I was OK with not knowing where I was going or what I was doing,” then her autobiographical sophomore effort, "Start at the End" is the logical sequel. Written and recorded after the death of her father last June, the album’s themes include rebirth, reinvention, self-discovery and coming to terms with life’s absurdities, both channeling and moving on from her grief.
“When my dad died, I realized I didn’t understand the purpose of anything,” says Tamar about turning to music to express and work through her existential crisis. 
That required her to Start at the End... with one door closing, others opened, and the cycle of life renewed on an album of introspection, but also action taken, moving forward tentatively, the journey chronicled step by step like a book of short stories, with her characteristic blend of ‘60s psychedelia, ‘70s punk and ‘80s power pop, leavened with strains of folk and country. - Roy Trakin

The Tide

There once was a girl.
An oyster and it's pearl.
She kept to herself in a bubble. 
Innocence and wonder 
Were the lights that she stood under
When she turned 14
The world wasn’t as it seemed

Predatory eyes 
Devils in disguise.
Cartoons had not prepared her
For the pain that god declared her
To clip and angel's wings
And tie them up withs strings
When the tide came in
Submerging everything

There’s nothing left to save,
Only bide your time and wait.
When the tide rolls away
Exposing all at play

Despite their evil hands
She found the promise lands
The demons of her past
Were still  holding on with a tight grasp
But an angel can’t be tamed 
And when the blood has almost drained
The little girl takes her turn
To watch them burn

The Tide

I hope you enjoy this track, It's a positive / hopeful message.

Opportunities

For my final recital at Trinity Laban I chose to play a few tunes from my hero Michael Brecker's last album "Pilgrimage". This meant 
a huge deal to me, and I tried as hard as I could to get into Michael's playing and the tunes as much as possible. Thanks so much to everyone who performed with me:
Rupert Cox - Piano
Adam Chinery - Guitar
Sam Ingvorsen - Bass
Will Cleasby - Drums

Another big thank you is to Gil Goldstein who sent me the original charts from the album, I am so grateful to him, Randy Brecker and Susan Brecker who made this possible.

Good Times by The Bastard Sons of Dennis, from their album Cherry Smoke Empire.

Good Times was one of the earliest Bastard Sons of Dennis songs, first coming to light in their sand dune sessions on Exmouth beach in the summer of 1994. Sometimes was first performed live by the duo at The Cavern in Exeter that same summer. It also featured in their spontaneous one-off reunion in 1998.

Mr Lijkkes composed this song shortly after hitch hiking and being given a lift by a rather odd man who told him a very strange tale about his life.

Good Times is in the key of G and has some rather interesting temporal anomalies buried within. They sound very natural so you may not hear them immediately.

With its fun acoustic funk jam to start off, this track was sometimes used as a set opener in the duo's longer performances.

GOOD TIMES
This has gotta be the good times
No more bad
No more in between for a while
I wanna get down to it
Don't wanna be the spoke in your wheel if I can help it

Well excuse while I tell you what I saw the other day
I met a man with a life to hide and bridges burnt behind him
He had a fleeting glimpse, a breath of freshness passed him
Like he didn't have a chance to catch it when it settled upon his lip
I don't suppose so

This has gotta be the good times
No more bad
No more in between for a while
I wanna get down on it
Don't wanna be a spoke in your wheel if I can help it

Well I came across your garden when your flower was unfurling
May I relieve you of the burden of your innocence
Your aura's tantalising, your scent is mesmerising
When I'm near you I have to slip into a realm of fantasy

This has gotta be the good times
No more bad
No more in between for a while
I wanna get down to it
I don't wanna be the spoke in your wheel if I can help it

Well excuse me while I ask you what's your name and where you've been
Cos you look so damn familiar like a painting, a rocket
A reflection of my sin

(Take it down)

I see a hint of roses smiling on your face
I don't mean to make you catch your breath
I couldn't make you if I tried

I see a hint of roses smiling on your face
I don't mean to make you catch your breath
I couldn't make you if I tried

And I came across your garden where the walls were gently fading
And the blossom was exhiilerating as it spoke to me
My universe expanded and my questions became answers
As I laid upon the earth and it accepted me

And this has gotta be the good times
No more bad
No more in between for a while
I wanna get down on it
Don't wanna be the spoke in your wheel if I can help it

This has gotta be the good times
No more bad
No more in between for a while
I wanna get down on it
Don't wanna be a smoke in your wheel if I can help it

This has gotta be the good times
No more bad
No more in between for a while
I wanna get down to it
Don't wanna be the spoke in your wheel if I can help it

This has gotta be the good times
No more bad
No more in between for a while
I wanna get down on ya
I'd like to be the seat upon your bike if you would let me

* 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.
