A little scratch track from a few months ago. A song about the trials and tribulations of being 11 years old. Watching Six Million Dollar Man, dodging bullies and pretending our bicycles were Harleys.
I was at a friends house and saw a little…
I used to put card in my spokes...I preferred to think it was a dirt bike. Def. used to watch the six million dollar man too. And don't forget the bionic woman. I had a crush on her..ahhh...Jamie Somers. The last name fit..when you looked at her, the feeling was like a beautiful summer day.
We used to play war in the woods too.. lol.
Used sticks for guns. Hmm...we even liked our friends sisters barbie dolls. lol. Not dressing them up...but the opp.
ohhh keennnn....oh barbie... lol.
Speaking of barbie...have u seen black hole sun?

Another one from the dusty special price bin! It started off as a Pilot cover, but it didn't end up that way.
Dave Berry added the excellent tele solos and the crazy cool noises at the end. Thanks bro, you rock!
I spent more time on this…

The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.
Vodka
I want the vodka
'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…
I recorded this one to a dimming flashlight on the 25th after a windstorm took out my power. I couldn't see the lyrics anymore so I ad libbed and hummed the rest out. My recording device is battery operated, which is cool.
This predicament…
Welp... I didn't do a feckin' thing all weekend. No laundry, no nuthin'. So I figured I'd beat the living hell out of my Ibanez in order to make up for it.
A juvenile song at best, but I feel better now :)
One take in the MBR hole... I'll…
My only musical Christmas present. Tharek(Osckilo) sent me a wonderful Spanish/Arab sounding guitar track. All I had to do was sing. Sometimes that is the biggest treat of all, and I took full advantage of it. Thanks, bro!!
All done on the…
Played all at once through a little plastic hole (Micro BR), so I know it needs to be redone. I've been down with swine fever for the past few days and have barely been able to hang onto a guitar, so this ought to be a crowd pleaser :) A song…
When I wrote this song.... It was about staying true to your Ideals...
In fact... It is about a person that put me in a very difficult situation....
One that effected my life for a while... Just for doing the right thing...
I think…
Man, I must be out of touch. I play/sing on a lot of your tunes and still managed to miss this one!
I love it! It swings big time and the vocals kick ass!!
You rule, bro! Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!
Morning light on the mountain stream,
catches the eye of the child within his dreams.
The day begins, present and aware,
of all the beauty, he plays without a care.
Castles on the riverbank, a choir of birds in song,
picking spring flowers in…
Right on, bro! A well put together prog masterpiece as usual. You must have had a hell of a time putting this one together! We've got to do another collab soon!

This one has been sitting around for a while but I feel it's the best or most interesting of my most recent posts. The inspiration came from listening to an old CD I have of a great band from the 90's. If anybody can name the band that I gained…
This one is called "Your Light".
Hope you Like it!
Peace

LYRICS
-YOUR LIGHT-
-By Tharek Mokbul-
We’ve heard all the compliments.
All said in a day.
They’ve lost all their meaning now.
Wasted away.
They were there…
Love like a salt river washing away
Love's like sunshine evaporate
Love like floating candles blowing away
Watch out for the way you'll compensate
When I've seen all you have to give
When I'm still hungry
I need more than this
Tell me how…
The verses in this song alternate being about my best friend when I was a little kid, and my best friend at the time I wrote it. I thought it was brave and artsy at the time. Then I grew up. :)
Thanks to Sister Savage for helping us debut our new project. As busy as she is, Sister managed a bit of time and some great Jovian vox for us.
This piece or art is unique, sublime, and psychedelic.
Lyrics:
?
2010 Savigear-Reyes-Lennon
Many thanks to Kirk Lynch, a real gentleman and a pleasure to jam with.
His tracks are the heart of this tune.
Lyrics:
I have a a pain
deep in my Chest
I can’t Breathe
as I Light my cigarette
Oh my head, Woe is me
Oh my head, Woe is me
But…
A cover and rearrangement of the song Lost! by Coldplay.
Thank Jesus for my skills, had it not been for him i would surely be dead.
I give thanks to God and credit this to him for giveing me the skills he has.
It should never be different for…
For this Mother's Day week, a conga improvisation dedicated to Saint Monica and all the other mothers who surreptitiously provide for and incessantly pray for their children. Thanks Mom!
** this could really use a tasty melody to go with…
Hybrid analog/digital rock and roll. I'm trying out some new guitar FX and amp sims in Pro Tools.
They are not so bad all distorted and fuuzzzzed
up.
I tried to sing it, but hey, you know, I give it hell though right?
It's a Goddess of War…
I think this is the first song that I've posted here under Mannequin Races that actually has a guitar in it. You can't really tell that it's a guitar but it's in there (middle section around the 1:50 mark). The guitar is heavily modulated but…
Dissonant cohesion. Didn't think it was possible, but you managed! Stays interesting the whole way through which is important to me anyway.
Great stuff!
I'm singing lead on this. It was recorded to 24 track, 2 inch tape, I'm thinking. I have those somewhere, but they've turned gooey. Sadly, it seems to go into the red during the chorus, but I can't fix that now. I have more stories about the…

Great vocal textures here.
This is freakin' sweet, bro! Wonderful strumming and the lyrics are awesome! You rule, man!
Yes - I love it. It's full of passion - You both know how to deliver. Fantastic!
Very soothing and mellow. Requires multiple listens.
I like this one, flows along great.
Can you say neo-hippie-symphonic-space-jazz?? Well composed and performed. I love it!
This is great stuff, guys! You should give a breakdown of who did what. I kinda got an idea, but it would still be cool :) Frickin' sweet lyrics too!
Beautiful.
Yes - I love it. The rhythm guitar tone and that Tony Banks sounding synth part was great.
Nawmy!! Cool shout out to mom! I might craft a little audio card for my mom now. Great driving conga beats!
Enviable guitar tone. I want that sound.
The guitar and vox are a deadly weapon here! Great tune.
I thought this was cool as all getout, bro! Vox were great, and I loved that guitar tone. Sweeeeeeet!!!
Yes - I love it.
Dissonant cohesion. Didn't think it was possible, but you managed! Stays interesting the whole way through which is important to me anyway. Great stuff!
Holy FN kick ass, Batman! Not a big listener of the loops, but I thought this turned out great.Sweeet!
Yes, I love it!
