about
A NINJAM improv session performed live across the Atlantic via the interwebs. Poem/vocals by Cary Grace. Electronics by Cary Grace and Grant Richter.
lyrics
It draws near.
The pacing more frantic—
The pounding insists.
Pulse driven by the countdown clock,
Heart wired to the ticking hand,
Planned in advance—
Every beat, every skip—
This is not chance.
You did not invent this.
And somewhere I shiver,
Locked in a fever mask
Of white vertigo and black voids...
I can't remember what I saw when—
Only the beat and the skip.
But you, you are made of single mind.
You lurch with each click—
Each tick: you jump.
It draws near
Near, too large it looms,
And yet,
You would not recognise the metaphor,
Even if I called it something else.
The pacing more frantic—
The pounding insists.
Pulse driven by the countdown clock,
Heart wired to the ticking hand,
Planned in advance—
Every beat, every skip—
This is not chance.
You did not invent this.
And somewhere I shiver,
Locked in a fever mask
Of white vertigo and black voids...
I can't remember what I saw when—
Only the beat and the skip.
But you, you are made of single mind.
You lurch with each click—
Each tick: you jump.
It draws near
Near, too large it looms,
And yet,
You would not recognise the metaphor,
Even if I called it something else.

guitar, and runs

The Stellar Nursery
by VietgroveA progressive/electronic masterpiece with a definite Canterbury flavour. This one is really worth checking out!

You'll Miss Me Most 7-inch
by The Living KillsWander Gothic catacombs as poetry sails into your ears on a storm of guitars and electronics. At once an impossibly ephemeral silken shroud and a super-dense metallic artifact of impenetrable mystery.

Monday Machines

Just played the Supernatural track as a taster before setting down for a full session and wow, its fantastic, much better than i imagined. This is a straight link to the 60s and the music of my youth. Custard Flux, you rock. Thank you.
