supported by
Dirk Radloff
Dirk Radloff thumbnail
Dirk Radloff So many influences and surprising shifts, I just listened to "Summer is gone, hail the sun", which starts like a dreamy 60s song, perfect Hippie-atmosphere with beautiful vocals and acoustic guitar. And suddenly the presence comes in with the King's fluid Rap and unmistakable voice. Hurry to get one of the two remainig cassettes, I already have one Favorite track: Summer Is Gone, Hail The Sun.

one sunday morning I skipped into the sea but then i cut me on a clam i cut me on a clam infused by a salty injection, i went back up again and i opened up the clam, but it was empty and i opened up the clam, but it was empty this, this one, it wasn't empty no, it was filled up to the brim with a salty goo one sunday morning i cut me on a clam i made another try, but i cut me again one clam, two clams, three clams, four Calebass and Sneekie San Salvador A hard shell, soft shell, razor clam score Mix 'em all together for a funky chowder and so i threw it into the sea and i throw myself into it too and then the albatross, he sat upon my shoulder and then it lead me to a cave that was filled up to the brim with empty shells and i said, hey, what's with all the shells, it replied... a peace of mind, yea

Human: My doggy dug a great big hole She dug it in the ground She was digging for a rabbit For she made that rabbit sound How'd it go? Woofa Woofa Digga Digga Woofa Woofa Digga Dig My doggy dug a great big hole She dug it in the ground She was digging for a rabbit For she made that rabbit sound That Rabbit Sound Woofa Woofa Digga Digga Dog came flying through the air In my socks and down my gumboots In my teeth and in my hair Dog: And this one goes out to all the fine furry creatures out there hear me now! I dig in deep with the claws of fury I get the passion and I'm off in a scurry Off me to catch me a fine piece of furry You never know when your gonna get a lucky I got no worries I got no worries Gonna dig me some deep deep holes Live life simply Rabbit: You You can't catch me Digga digga You can't catch me Canine fang You can't catch me Ya ain't gonna snatch me I am going, I am going to run I am going, I am going to run You can't catch me You can't snatch me You can't reach me You can't reach down the rabbit hole Human: My doggy dug a great big hole She dug it in the ground She's digging for a rabbit For she made a rabbit sound

(based off the old poem) Cross my heart and hope to die Stick a needle in my eye Wait a moment, I spoke a lie I never really wanted to die But if I may and if I might My heart is open for tonight Though my lips are sealed And my promise is true I won't break my word My word to you A needle in a haystack A fennel in my pocket A lock on my heart A cardiac arrest

Esta noche la luna no sale Esta noche la luna no sale Va a estar oscuro, va a estar oscuro Va a estaar oscuro, va a estar oscuro Esta noche la luna no sale Esta noche la noche esta oscura No puedes ver, no puedes ver No puedes ver, no puedes verme Esta noche la luna no sale Esta noche la noche esta oscura Voy a encender un camino con velas Voy a encender un camino con velas Pa que veas, pa que veas, pa que veas Pa que veas Uhhhh uhhhh uhhh uhhhh.... Esta noche la luna no sale Esta noche la noche esta oscura Y el viento sopla y el camino se apaga The Moon On this night the moon will not be seen On this night the moon will not be seen There will be darkness, there will be darkness There will be darkness, there will be darkness On this night the moon will not be seen On this night the moon will not shine You will not see, you will not see You cannot see, you cannot see me On this night the moon will not be seen On this night the moon will not shine I will light your way with trail of candles I will light you way with a trail of candles So that you may see, so that you may see So that that you may see me Oooohhh oooohhhh oooooohh. . . On this night the moon will not be seen On this night the moon will not shine The wind will blow and make your path disapear!

The beauty, fire-walker and run-ragged dancer, Circle the square and run all the faster. The wolf-hound, the pauper and quick-witted crook, Circle the square and the fat banker’s hook. Summer is gone. All Hail to the Sun. Summer is gone. All Hail to the Sun. The earth is a circle that never shall be broken. The circle is a secret that never shall be spoken. And Love is a spire that spirals forever. A spiral in our blood, to heal us together. The Lovers, The Fool and the old, thin Magician, Quarter the night and the Moon’s intuition. The dwarves and the dance-girls in glitter processions, Quarter the night with the Moon’s intuition. Lyrics, vocals by Steph Sweet © 2016 All Rights Reserved Like Druids Gathering on the equinox to Watch the sun rise In the morning To give thanks For the bountiful harvest And prepare for the darkness Of the winter It’s time to build an alter, gather all the fruits and vegetables And offer apples to The goddess Sharing food and gathering one’s blessings As leaves change their colors and fall from the trees Blanketing the earth for her long winter’s nap And the sun’s seeds Looses power to The darkness Of the lunar ruled sky Listen to the knowledge of the third eye As the inner maharaja speaks the truth Summer is gone. All Hail to the Sun

This album was born from the inspiration and creative contribution of many talented artists active within the SoundCloud and Bandcamp community. Calebass and the Couch King first worked together on "The Clam Collectors Society" in 2015. Since then, the global independent music scene has gotten tighter and individual musical ideas have become further interwoven. Fusion is the norm and collaboration between enamored musicians is the fertile mixing ground for sonic fertilization. New music offspring are born on the regular. This 5 song EP contains five of those music babies.
