COMPILATION PROJECT
I'm looking for musicians & visual artists of any genre who would like to feature their original work in a compilation project themed around causes of concern, particularly civil liberties and the environment, but without the "woke" ideology that goes along with so much of it these days.
The artist Five Time August is a great example of such talent. Topics might be censorship, political corruption, the Freedom Movement, preservation of wildlife habitat, even alien visitation or other so-called "conspiracy theories".
ORIGINALS & CASUAL JAMMING
I'm also open to working with others on their original music, or just jamming around on nothing in particular. I'm not interested in doing covers or playing live ( for now anyway ) — but I am interested in recording new material.
EXAMPLE WORK
The track included here is an example of my ability. It was written in 1985 and performed live during the late 80s and early 90s, During 2019 it was recorded at my home studio. In 2024 it was reissued with a slightly different mix.
The song alludes to nuclear war, an issue that until the recent threats by Russia to use them against NATO, had been largely forgotten. Lyrics included below.
NO TIME TO RUN — 2024 Reissue Version
VERSE I
No Time To Run
No time to run - when they come
When they come - nothing to fight for
Only to die for and no time to run
VERSE II
You will hear the sirens scream
You may think that it's just a dream
First comes the fire and then comes the rain
There will be no time to feel the pain
There will be no time for you to explain
Just how this world got so damned insane
VERSE III
See the reflection in your child's eye
What's that coming down from the sky
Nothing my little one just hold on tight
It means it's time to say goodnight
