turtle assasin

It happens in threes and this is no different. Dreams are wonderful things to wake up from and when they are as vivid as a good movie you know you have to run with them. That’s one, er the lyrical content.


Two: I’ve been messing around for years with what I call controlled feedback. The idea is to create a mechanical feedback loop in audio gear with a gain knob somewhere to control it and some device in the middle that colors the sound somehow. I’ve been experimenting in Ableton Live with the same thing, but in this case it’s all software based. The noise loop came about from this and I believe this was the third attempt with nailing down the parameters to make it musical.


For the third part, I have to thank a scooter accident for making me sit down and actually try to craft a song. I’m ok, but nursing a post dislocated shoulder. Today was a good day.

Lyrics:

On Persian carpet
with deep red longing
he scrapes right towards me
on instinct only
I turn right and wonder at the sight
of two tone necklace beads

Strangers and coke bottles wait for me
I have the time off
strangers they wait and they gun for me
I have the scars proof
dangers can’t stare at the stars and see
the only missing key

Linear time
except for this time
a turtle assassin
missing his target
I can’t fight and know to do what’s right
the flower blooms for me

Gangsters and neck ties can’t show the scenes
A little road stop
strangers they wait and they hunt for me
the need for top off
anger and lust eyes can turn the sea
how ’bout a cup of he
