THE HARBOUR from Echoes from a distant Past

What kind of experiment was it? I forcibly inserted another element in the middle of the DJ sound. I mainly use collage as my production method, so the atmosphere of this song is what I imagined. But it destroyed the uplifting dance mood that gets you on the rhythm. Some of the necessary elements of the music are missing, but it will be a relief for your ears.

Seaside Spell

Jeff and I are happy to present our first live arena gig! Not really, but you can imagine.  This one started when Jeff was telling me about how he and Jo (sonic structures and silent stretches ) were writing some of their poetry in a stream off consciousness style, writing a line and then handing it off back and forth until it was done.   I suggested maybe we try something like that with the guitars.   So we did.  We exchanged ideas until it felt done and here's where we landed.   
This one was a lot of fun to pull together and really just kind of not think about it as we wrote.

A little bit of tropicana to warm up a cold damp UK afternoon!
Thank you always for your kind reposts plays and playlists!!!

Invisible Agony

The idea for this song came to me randomly while driving down some backroad a few years back, and I recorded the initial idea spur of the moment. For whatever reason, the rather morbid theme came out in the process and I just went with it. Nat is a daring soul and surprisingly encouraged that we record it and with her considerable help we fashioned this recording. Notable is that Nat has taken on the ability to add some beautiful pedal steel guitar throughout the song using her well established keyboard skills and this first run at it was very satisfying. Let us know what you think!

Lyrics:
It took me a while to believe it
If you’re stuck in a bad place, you leave it
And I was that place, that she had to erase
A place that suited me just fine

Then one day I put away my rosy glasses
As I waited for her to come back home.
But watching dust settle, 
On the couch and the kettle
I could see it was me, that made her have to leave
Me to build this coffin home of mine

Yes, I’m building a coffin to live in
Surrounded by forests of green
‘Cause if I ever knew love, 
I guess that I threw love
Away with the girl of my dreams

Well, it don’t feel like living, without her
Though the sun still shines brightly through the pines 
I can tell I have a pulse, 
But my heart has tested false 
If only I’d seen the warning signs

It’s the simple things that seem so complicated
Thought I knew what I should do, to make it 
But then the ship that sails, 
Leaves you pounding coffin nails
Now it’s, twenty-four seven, this coffin that I live in
With all the “could have beens” that it confines

I’m just building a coffin to live in
Surrounded by forests of green. 
‘Cause if I ever knew love, 
I guess that I threw love
Away with the girl of my dreams

Pounding away, day after day
Waiting for the girl of my dreams
Someday, she’ll be back

The current music scene is great because of the places where music is made and the experiments that are repeated by each personality. For individual creators, it is much more valuable to have an environment where they can come into contact with a large number of personalities than to be spread.
