Hey Zen... Had to pick a song out of my head for this and well yours ame to mind first... I was thinking about random love. SoundCloud is such a great representation of this in the world. Most artists as far as I can see need to nearly always break free from the insular bubbles of love we have with the people 'close' to us. Art, seems to rarely be a big part of those connections I think because of the box people we know put us in and maybe a fear in the artist to not step outside that unsaid but agreed mould. Not very passion inspiring. It's the Random love here that's truly solidified my belief in myself as an artist. I find that fascinating that I had to disconnect from those most dear to me to find that. Zero resentment about it but I find it very enlightening indeed 🔆

Very cool track, man.  That sax is the cat's meow!

Crazily inventive song - cool cat horn solo does it for me!

"Distanced" is a reflective ballad that captures the beauty and heartache of a long-distance relationship, drawing parallels with the infinite expanses of space, and the need for connection stifled by the realities of time and space. With spacey guitar tones and melancholic vocals, The Day Afters blend wistful lyrics with a modern indie sound. Perfect for late-night reflection.

Lyrics:
It’s the Distance - and the time we squandered, the days we found were- quickened.
A rhythm - as we break in two again, smash into ourselves - listen….   

If you want it - you get it - you get you let it go
When  you see it - it’s never what you’re looking for
You can dream - for more and more
What’s real is here, you feel it near - that’s yours

Absence - makes the heart grow fonder But my thoughts still wander - still with you
This system - demands you follow, Makes you swallow - puts us in this queue

If want it - you get it - you get you let it go
When you see it - it’s never what you’re looking for
You can dream - for more and more
What’s real is here, you feel it near - that’s yours

I Miss you - the earth is harder, the sun feels farther than it used to - and we’re just passing through

Trying to read you - I can't tell
Trying to reach you - No one’s there

Yes, there's a soundbite from a Marvel movie in the mix (Disney don't sue me please). And yes, it still makes me cry. Damn you, Vision!

Bonus: Guess the movie in the comments! First correct answer gets a follow and virtual fist bump.

Breath in! 

To those who say suburban dads in their 40s can't learn to rap, I say ... well, you maybe right. But the sax solo by @Dynameks makes up for it!

A new bossa nova tune for a summer that's slipping away too fast .......

Ordinary Daydreams

How far have i gone 
What is this road i’m on
That leads so far from home

Are you here with me now, 
Now that i need you, No, 
i lost you long ago

And I’m barely hanging on 
I need to find the way today
And darling, I miss you so
just give me a sign and lead the way

If it’s the last thing i do I’m coming home to you
back where i belong
I’ll find the way No matter what it takes
down this road so long
You don’t know what’s here till it's gone

In some other life, Or maybe a distant dream,
that i don’t quite recall
But I close my eyes, and i’m there it seems
where you and I had it all

The sound of the children play
And the dogs out in the yard  
The fragrant flowers bloom away
It all seems so near and yet so far

If It's The Last Thing I Do

I Think I'll Go Home

I sketched a short piece out of some melodies that came to my mind while I was dozing off early in the morning.

Simba, the adorable cat in the picture(2015), used to live in my neighborhood, but seems to have moved into the cat world a long time ago... I wish him all the best!

this song is about the seethy overarching system that drives art and many other things to be fear driven in the name of higher profits
