    Ok this song is a remake of a song off my third album. Holly liked it and wanted to sing to it. So here we are!

  18. How Could You Let Me Go? (cover)

    How Could You Let Me Go? (cover) by Troll Tunes

  19. Shark Encounter

    Lyrics from an essay by surfer George Greenough. Another track where I sent Holly some music and she made some vocals over it. I cobbled it together to make this mini epic. THIS IS JUST A DRAFT (for now ) ! :)

  20. Two Minutes Later

    I sent Holly English some piano bit and she sent me some vocals. That's about it. Just raw music with a little embellishment. :)

  21. Your Destination

    This was the last piece finished for the #AnotherGreenWorld project, a track by track response to Brian Eno's album. This one had to correspond with I'll Come Running, which had a lot to think about. One is that the sing was an older one, revised for Another Green World, and made more loving and...

  22. Away Away

    This one was a response to Everything Merges with the Night by Brian Eno. Nothing direct, it just had to be a song, and have some vocals and some consistency, and be generally about the senses and belonging and stuff like that. I like this one. The (human) vocals were recorded in a small hotel…

  23. Anarchestra

    From the #AnotherGreenWorld project, this a response to Sombre Reptiles. Guitar and rhythm, not my strong suit, so this playful, semi-loud response. The "Anarchestra" is place in Providence, Rhode Island with dozens of homemade percussion instruments. Originally this track featured some of them…

  24. Little Log

    Little Log by Troll Tunes

  25. Civilization

    Part of the #AnotherGreenWorld project, this an imprecise response to The Big Ship. It's called "Civilization" in part because one of the chord progressions is stolen from Chris Whitley's "Wild Country", one of the best songs about leaving civilization (and life) ever.

  26. Dark Hounds

    From the #anothergreenworld project, this one an imprecise response to Becalmed. "Dark Hounds" because the chords are from Hounds of Love. Ok enjoy!

  27. Little Lines

    Another from the #AnotherGreenWorld project. This, an imprecise response to Little Fishes. Simple, I think this one might capture the original the best of the fourteen.

  28. Miyazaki

    Another song in the #anotherGreenWorld project. This one an imprecise response to Another Green World which is really just one figure, built upon over to a crescendo. This one originally started as a song about Hayao Miyazaki. The lyrics are now gone, thankfully, but there is a bird cry in there…

  29. Crazy (Gnarls Barkly cover)

    Really is an instrumental cover of Gnarls Barkly's Crazy. When I heard the two G chords at the end of the progression (a G4 and a G? A G2 and a G?) I just fell in love with it. This feels like Spirits Drifting so I let it be the ending of the #anothergreenworld project album. Enjoy!

  30. On Four Legs

    Part of the #AnotherGreenWorld project, this an imprecise response to In Dark Trees. Virtually all the sounds are from the BBC animal archives, except the synth.

  31. Dark Blue

    Part of the #AnotherGreenWorld project, this a response to Over Fire Island. But not even close. This one started in fact, in Brian Eno's songwriting course at #schoolofsong . The first 20 minute exercise. A lot of the stuff from that exercise got burnished out, but there are some skeletal...

  32. Drive On! Drive On!

    Ok well this one was one I wanted to borrow some audio from a Samuel Beckett audiobook I'm listening to (Molloy) but I didn't have the right plug in to grab the audio, and so I thought, well I'll see what they have online at archive.org and found Endgame, Krapp's Last Tape and Embers and so I...

  33. Open Match

    Part of the #AnotherGreenWorld project, this a response to Sky Saw.Nothing is precise. But I knew I wanted lyrics, and abruptly introduced, if possible. All the dynamics of Sky Saw are missing, but this is what you get :) Lyrics: One tiny flame A handful of names And spaces And feelings That…

  34. Likkey Lu

    I'm not sure what this is all about. From the #anothergreenworld project. This one is sort of a response to "Zawinul/Lava". Since that one had a musician's name in the title, I put Likke Li's name sort of in here.

  35. The Empty Bench

    The Empty Bench I wrote/played the piano bit before leaving for Gainesville for a month, where I borrowed a tiny foldable keyboard. I refined the ref, if you can call it that, on the new keyboard but still used some of the clumsy piano stuff in the mix. That's the kind of brash recklessness we do...

  36. Change the Rocks

    Change the Rocks This started with those simple notes, played while Molly Rose was doing something in the same room. I think she's even in the mix somewhere. And then pulling a card of a monkey mother and her baby, in an icy lake, combined with a dream of changing rocks from one to another, and a...

  37. Odin's Walk

    This one started listening to the Odin episode of Tim Miller's marvelous podcast, Human Voices Wake Us. wordandsilence.com/2023/05/16/the-…in-new-episode/ Somehow, I managed to write this little walking melody, and a majority of the lyrics soon after. Then I went away for 2 weeks, including two...
