The bear claws of the people are tearing down the wall
Collectively refusing the dollar’s siren call
The goal of social revolution is muffins for all
Heaps of tasty baked goods to enjoy after the fall
Yoda doesn’t know nothin
Do or do not, or you can simply try
This yoda propaganda is a nasty jedi lie
A story they tell the younglings, to keep their slice of pie
I’m tell you that yoda dude is a vicious type of guy

Realistic expectations
Property enumerations
Unexpected flights of snow
When you see the way it go
Hyperstatic auto loopers
Burying the hydro scoopers
Multiplistic party craze
Cutting through the tantric haze
Only time the big bell striking
One by air and two by lightning
Everything rolls out at once
Then the bear wakes up and hunts
Forty years of entroscopy
Then the briar harsh and pokey
Waking up the daily grind
Encounters of the second kind

Cold Restart

30 days of wandering
with little expectation
now here we are
we'll be back in a month or so
dragging with the undertow
how near how far
now do the thing you want to do
the thing that brings some joy to you
barely just in time
a trident to the saddened heart
giving it a cold restart
make this moment mine

Matthew Joseph Payne Oakland, California
Multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and composer with a flair for the dramatic. Bluegrass, chiptunes, ondes martenot and more swirl through unexpected soundscapes with hidden meanings. Also memes.
Matthew Joseph Payne recommends:
Crying came out of nowhere and absolutely blew me away. ES' distinct vocal style, and Ryan and Nick's GB/drums/guitar interactions draw you in with inital simplicity that surprises you at every turn.

This record never gets old to me! The drum programming here is so expressive that it didn't even occur to me for the first few casual listens that it was in LSDJ! Expressive, complex, intense.

Things We Dream About
by A/B Duo
I wrote "Echoloquacious" for A/B Duo to follow-up the LSDJ/flute piece I wrote for Meerenai, and I couldn't have imagined a better pairing than Ivan Trevino's "Things We Dream About.

With their blend of playfulness and graduate-level instrumentation, Dorcha deftly prove that improvisational zeal and conservatory-level precision aren't mutually exclusive.
