This is lovely on so many levels - beginning with the enchanting soundcheck! Great playing and awesome song-writing. This is the kind of melody that just unfolds so beautifully and naturally that it can only be a gift.

Say my name Say my name
Say it softly but say…
An intrumental Track I put together when Thinking about my family.
One Guitar represents my son, one my wife and one me......
Two Versions with Vox (Jim Higgins and Geir Alfsen) are also in existance.. not sure how to link to this site…
Ah... So good right from the start, but I've come to expect that from Osckilo's acoustic arrangements. Instant fave. Man, I could just listen to you playing acoustic guitar all day. Tomorrow I start the download fest of Osckilo's greatest hits for use on road trips.
Faved at 0:10... Wow. This style of layered guitar arrangement is just incredible! I'd love to know in what order you recorded them... It's so cleanly and perfectly played... I feel like I walked in on a great live gig.
A Song About Trying....
-Lyrics-
Maybe we can find a place where we,
can be truly free my love.
And we’ll find this place alone.
Where our hearts are guided.
The road seems Never ending.
Souls Lost in the dark.
Your light becomes…
I'll stop saying it at some point, but I really am amazed and envious of your understanding of your instrument and your voice. Just timeless music. Incredible.

Sleep

I’m in this ancient place of peace...
With a Lullaby in me.....
But I cannot seem to sleep....
Just a Pill to help me go to sleep ........
This Lullaby in me..... I cant hear......

Man, so the words just pour out of you as you play, because that's what it sounds like... The words themselves are so perfectly formed to work with the music. I am truly envious of this marriage of vocal/instrument arrangement.

Excellent arrangement... You have a great musical ear! Having messed around with Garageband for hours to get quality arrangements, I can appreciate the effort involved in producing such a full sound... and those searing vocals... Wow.
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

I need more than this

Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics.

I'll let your image float away

you have no power over me
This is Soundtrack material in the best possible way.
It really casts images in the listeners mind...
I cant but help think the lyrics have a deeper spiritual significance.
Superb Mr Sweet
I was inspired by the music of a friend of mine, their band is called Aradhna and you might like to check them out. I've attempted to compose a song in the Hindi language and here it is.
The words are very simple
Union with Jesus
I desire union…
Faved Mr Sweet...
You do extremely well with the Hindi Bro!
It was one of me Pa's languages.
He used to play old cassets of music like this when I was a kid.
You really have nailed the vocal style.
Love the lyrics as well..
Written for a friend of mine.
be and i will be with you
you are a light house in this storm
you will overcome
you will overcome this storm
don't fear the wall for you will climb upon it.
you will see from higher ground
and the sun…
This has a real vintage feel to it...
The song is superb and i love the phrasing on both the guitar and Vocal.
Such a sublime song Mr Sweet..

4 stereo guitar tracks played out one at a time.
Another late night - early morning recording.
I like to keep a positive attitude about the things that haunt me, but sometimes dreams change course unexpectedly, and the worms creep in.
Enjoying a few tracks on this site with Indian flavor lately. My brothers legs were so red from slapping them to get the perc sounds in this track, I had to laugh, That alone was worth doing the song ;)
Enjoy # 92

Hot Damn!!!!
This is a Superb Production!!
The Skill it must have taken to do the Messages in Layers must be immense!!!
I'm Seriously inspired by this track but won't dare attempt anything Like it!
Soo good!
Many thanks to Kirk Lynch, a real gentleman and a pleasure to jam with.
His tracks are the heart of this tune.

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.

I think Drumming is one of the hardest things to do Musically!
You are freaking Awesome!!!!
Faved Bro!
Did I say Awesome!!!!?!?!
AWESOME!!
It was a curious and wondrous thing.
One night I was in my studio adding some percussion to the "Quiet Rituals" track by Barry van Oudtshoorn, when my 4 young children (with whom I was long over-due to be tucking into bed and reading a bed…
Wow...
This has got the Awesome Factor big time!
I let my kid do some Synth for one of my tracks the other day... There is nothing in the world greater than Being able to share time like this with them!
I think is is amazing that this is a poem that you heard as a Child as well, and are now recording with your own children..
Warms The Heart Bro!
A Wonderful and Well Performed track!
It's really Spooky as well! Bonus!! :)
Well Done All!!
