I had a vivid dream flying over a vast grey ocean world, a gigantic 3D Ableton Live world, I soared through the sky of music software that I use in waking-life. So, I was airborne within a vast marine music land, and this is what I heard. Undersense is from my debut album "Living Memory": https://youtu.be/RfH6EzBnOxI?si=RIqcmnVhlmoR31HZ

[email protected] Lyrics: " I’m falling by the way side, catch me in the low-ride It’s been a long time, my only friend. Im cruising into overdrive you made me feel so alive and if I could, I’d do it over again, my only friend. I never know if I’m thinking of you or thinking of your body. (thinking of your body) Life is heavy on my mind, you can see me working over-time looking for somebody, my only friend. Set it up but we let it go, Didn’t think we’d ever have to let it go, and if I could, I’d do it over again, my only friend. In a sunset sky, I can see it from the other side, getting visions of your body, my only friend. I grab on but you let go, you made me feel so alone, I know i said it but i’ll say it again, my only friend. I never know if I’m thinking of you, or thinking of your body. (thinking of your body) I’ll see you again, my only friend. My only friend! " IE-JDM-18-00007 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ I love Cryptocurrencies!

Fire is a delicate song perched far from home. An electronic take on a beautiful Shay Fogarty original. Shay Fogarty AKA Pale Face is an Irish singer songwriter with a particular talent for undeniable hooks. Shay Fogarty: https://soundcloud.com/shay-fogarty mickmon https://open.spotify.com/artist/5jSBQzlZVzrVMJBuZOnr1k mickmon.com Ophelia EP in Greystones, Wicklow, Ireland (8/6/18): facebook.com/events/174142619868824 mickmon.com I had the pleasure of recording and mixing an acoustic performance of his song Fire. It didn't take long for how special it was to sink in. I grew very fond of it and felt it had electronic potential. mickmon went to work, constructing artificial hooks, rearranging the original song. The result is an 80s style synth pop ballad which allows Fire to burn in a whole new way.

Full Audio Visual Piece: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SAxm4KiTA8 “The end of non-digital music” is the theme. The interview of Jim Morrison speaking of the future of music was the root idea on which I based this track. I reinforced his idea by actually using machines, tapes and an electronic setup to create music. The prediction he made fifty years ago came true because of technological innovation, an innovation of music which I like to contribute to. This is part of a soundtrack of a video project collaboration between Aoife Hester (AH Photography) and I (mickmon). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SAxm4KiTA8 My live performance with this music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kp5Y8dxH8U www.mickmon.com fb.com/mickmon youtube.com/mickmon fb.com/aoifehesterphotography vimeo.com/aoifehester
