by Rhodesian Poet
I categorize my tunes as "psychedelic folk-rock avant-garde electronic ambient experimental". I compose rock songs, artsy electronic songs, folk songs, trippy psychedelic songs, instrumentals of just piano or guitar and various combinations of all these sonic forms. These tracks of mine appear to be a cross between the styles of Brian Eno, Pink Floyd, Talking Heads, Beck, The The (Matt Johnson), late 1960s psychedelic rock/folk, non-cheesy/non-sentimental new age, industrial, 1980s British alternative rock, 1990s U2, Kraftwerk, a hopeful anti-bleak version of Radiohead, contemporary electronica, late 1970s David Bowie, post-punk, John Fahey, 1980s New Wave pop, noise rock and a positive incarnation of Depeche Mode. What does my music sound like to you?Here are what I see as the biggest influences on what I've put together as a songwriter/musician:Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Jeff Buckley, The The (Matt Johnson), 80s/90s Brit alt rock, Marc Bolan, U2, George Harrison, tr

This Is God's World-Right
This is God’s world, right? It’s hard for me to see that sometimes There’s pollution of God’s Earth at such a crazy rate There’s more abuse of children and adults than I’m able to comprehend There’s a great silence from God A fantastic subtlety A confusing distance If you love this life so much If you like us so intimately Why are we are expected to discern this in the dark? Why do we have to find this in the dark? How are we to know your voice and see your signs? There are so many conflicting images Tons of altering and disorienting tones This is God’s world, right? Then can someone express to me What is God doing with my life? I’m punching And ducking Sifting through an enormous pile of data I’m wondering And pulling myself together Trying to looking alright But what for? Can I trust God? Does God love me? Does God even like me? What do I think of God? This is God’s world, right? This is God’s world, right? What’s God doing? Where is God? I guess He’s here I’m having a hard time seeing She or He But, somehow I know He or She is here I see evidence, of course Of some kind of awesome being But... ---------------------------- Live performances here: https://www.youtube.com/@RhodesianPoet Many songs on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Bm9jy1OS8IiOrYNvx1rGJ

This Is God's World, Right?
Lyrics: This is God’s world, right? It’s hard for me to see that sometimes There’s pollution of God’s Earth at such a crazy rate There’s more abuse of children and adults than I’m able to comprehend There’s a great silence from God A fantastic subtlety A confusing distance If you love this life so much If you like us so intimately Why are we are expected to discern this in the dark? Why do we have to find this in the dark? How are we to know your voice and see your signs? There are so many conflicting images Tons of altering and disorienting tones This is God’s world, right? Then can someone express to me What is God doing with my life? I’m punching And ducking Sifting through an enormous pile of data I'm wondering And pulling myself together Trying to looking alright But what for? Can I trust God? Does God love me? Does God even like me? What do I think of God? This is God’s world, right? This is God’s world, right? What’s God doing? Where is God? I guess He’s here I’m having a hard time seeing She or He But, somehow I know He or She is here I see evidence, of course Of some kind of awesome being But……..

Levitation Arrangement
Please levitate And everything you're saying Gets discredited on the way in You're a walking contradiction Looking at the way you're living You can't claim you believe When you don't Don't state you're loving If you won't It's just your foolish pride That keeps you lying Come clean Admit your flaws Come out of hiding Please arrange to levitate Levitate Please levitate Please levitate Because if we can't be honest We'll never know ourselves We won't know when to carry on Or when to ask for help I'm looking for hope In a world of confusion It may hurt a whole lot But I must abandon delusions You tell me I've got to hold on Hold on You tell me what I'm supposed to living for I'm so tired of cliches and empty words I want to uncover some simple mystery Of this universe So levitate already Come on ----------------------- Live performances here: https://www.youtube.com/@RhodesianPoet Many songs on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Bm9jy1OS8IiOrYNvx1rGJ

Luminous Clouds
The piano was recorded in 2011 while volunteering at Fernbank Natural History Museum in Atlanta, GA. I would play at lunchtime in their cafe. I wore a tie with dinosaur fossils on it! :-) ----------------------------- Live performances here: https://www.youtube.com/@RhodesianPoet Many songs on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Bm9jy1OS8IiOrYNvx1rGJ
