Inspired by the book "Freedom and Death" by Nikos Kazantzakis
Battlecry – Freedom and Death
Our arms are the mountains and the crags
Our ammunition in our hearts
Not the ancient swords and muskets we tote
Against all odds
The light of…
One part Guy Richie, one part Cirque du Soleil, the rest a trip down a gypsy campsite.
Played by me almost all acoustically (the only MIDI track was the bass) on my banjo, detuned guitar, recorder, and violin, along with various percussion items.
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
Lyrics:
Love is a mild catatonia
When you suspend your disbelief.
It can beat you down, it’s like pneumonia.
It’s something you catch and don’t release.
It’s a debt without restitution,
A series of rules that you must break.
I might…
Lyrics:
I don’t know whatever your mama told you
But, baby, listen to me.
Well she may think that I’m a snake in the clover.
I tend to disagree.
But I don’t want to take a lover if I can do what I please.
It’s just a memory of what you…
this is a very reflexive track... thinking all the time, as something you have to say, and you´re tying to say as well is possible. I really love this track, está muy bueno!
2 tablas, acoustic guitar, bamboo flute, tambourine, spanish lyrics.. thanks Hardrick for the help!

we have been watching the great collapse
everything falls... everything falls…
One for my electronic friends. It's just a bunch of patches mixed with MIDI and glued together with 1 part water, 2 parts flour, and 2 parts ectoplasma.
Enjoy!
One of my first favorite songs...I had this idea floating around for years, even tried it with the band in late 98-99. This 2001 recording comes closest to capturing what I hear in my head.

Deliciously quirky!
Enjoyed! Love the blend of instruments tied up with that relentless, driving beat. Very quirky!
Nice lone cowboy feel to this. Very cool singing.
Listening to this album tonight I'm struck by its pace. The songs unfold just right.
yeah I agree with AMUC, so captivating.
got about 20 seconds through before it stopped playing (im not too sure why..?) but I liked what I heard!
love the spacey-ness of the progression and the whole build up and vocals are just stella
Love the instrumentation.
(If this album continues to be this good I'm going to run out of favs and have to restart my computer, because that's how it works, you know,)

:) Hemos estado viendo la gran caÃda!! genial!! un abrazo amigo.
Weird dissonant-jazzy-african vibe. Definitely unique.
nice drums!
Rewinding stuff always sound cool. It's really weird in contrast to the pretty music over the top.
This song is kind of scary! But it's still cool, it seems like it could be part of a soundtrack to something mysterious.
The way the vocals are presented in this song is interesting. It might be the way they are mixed.
Wow. The amazing glu has a tune with that same title. I wonder where he's been? Miss him.
