Sounds like memories from far away and the words come from a glass bottle, the bottom of it. I would have liked to hear more cleary the words and less effects. Maybe next time, what do you say? Sorry, my English is soooo sooo rusty. Glad to see you are o.k. :)

That i didd miss this...beautifull!!!!so sad but so beautifull and that voice is perfect in it.
And when it starts from 1:25 just perfect.
I think this is my favorite Michael!!
Im glad you told me that i didd miss some of your tracks

It's a dream I'm sure. The horses refs made me think of this sparklehorse track https://youtu.be/QnRzUn-Nseg

xstokes replied 1st Sep 2022 - 4 years ago

what a lovely reference! think there’s some bojack in there as well!

I couldn't resist and picked up a video sequence, I don't know how much it coincides with the idea of the music

What an asperation my friend.
Your creativity and skill are untouchable and people like myself should only be playing in the Park.
Well done my dear friend.

Have you ever seen the Mickey Rourke movie Barfly? What a trip. Your use of that word instantly reminded me of a few classic lines in that flick that made me laugh.

Interesting as usual. Dark, sets a mood of despair, deep despair. Well done! Hope you are doing well after listening....he!

Take care!

Wayne

xstokes replied 27th Aug 2022 - 4 years ago

Hiya Wayne! I knew using the term barfly would be loaded for certain listeners, haha! I identify, thats for sure — fav scene was stumbling into the wrong apt and raiding the fridge. The real genesis of the song was a matt johnson/the the short film that robin had me watch a year or so ago that opened with a long long take of a damaged individual before launching into this is the day. Can’t find a link to that for some reason.
Anyway, you got every wavelength i aimed for. Thanks from the heart for listening, man!

dimestop 26th Aug 2022 23:41 - 4 years ago

bro my heart is touched what an intro, this is music from the heavens, im just sat in tranquillity with my eyes closed, big joint though :))

xstokes replied 27th Aug 2022 - 4 years ago

Hey paul — i’m glad you got the peace i wanted to convey. You know how it goes after one comes to terms after having hard realisations about ones self. You have a special ear, dude and my humble thanks for listening!

pseudoble 26th Aug 2022 22:00 - 4 years ago

Gorgeous dreamy start (reminding me a little of the microphones in tone and mood ... I guess horseshead reminds me of elvrum headless horseman track) but here Im drifting in a tone cathedral ... the beat of the drum loop promises something but it seems I was dreaming and Ive woken now, or was I awake and now fallen vert deeply asleep, either way I want to go back to where I was but cant seem to remember where I was.
Great stuff - It would be nice to build on this and twist, deconstruct and reprise the theme and elements. Aspirational indeed.

xstokes replied 27th Aug 2022 - 4 years ago

Ian! You have made me aware of influences i don’t always pick up on, and you hit it every time. So now along with animal co i gotta get reacquainted with mics!
Thanks for seeing more potential in this. I had a much longer version but lost the thread. This track is the salvaged parts. You do make me think it’s one to revisit, i sincerely appreciate that. Good to see you, man!

Danke 26th Aug 2022 20:23 - 4 years ago

yeah ... no words ... but maybe one ... art ...
all my hats off, Danke

xstokes replied 26th Aug 2022 - 4 years ago

haha it’s my hats off to the velvets on this one! so glad you liked it!

Shaman77 26th Aug 2022 19:02 - 4 years ago

Description : 'Taqdeer' in Urdu means 'Fate' or 'Destiny'. This is an Arabic /Hindi/Bollywood hip hop /club track. The drums are hip hop but the vibe is full sad emotional club vibe. It reminiscences of a man crying teardrops in a nightclub. That can be the best way to explain the vibe of this track. Hope you enjoy it!
