The Mellow Road Part I

from Methodical Variations Volume IV by Candle

/

about

From the FAWM liner notes:

"I've been chewing on this one for far too long. I had this plan for two additional parts, but I can't seem to bring myself to complete them. So here is Part I, as it is. Somewhat inspired by '73-75 era King Crimson.

I've been listening to many Mellotron tracks created by other FAWMers & decided I needed one of my own. So I got my hands on the RedTron SE VSTi for those classic Mellotron tones. Then I added Jeskola's Bass 3 and recorded some vocals & a guitar lead line (played thru Buzz via two instances of the Matilde Tracker 2). Some mixing & a lot of thought about where to go from here later, I present this. Unfinished, but done enough for FAWM."

See You In The Shadows…

lyrics

Once upon the shadow of my mind
Harbouring the souls they left behind
In the garden of my ancestor's time
I walk the mellow road hoping to find

Your grace
Your company
Your spirit free
Your subtlety

Trumpets call forth all the men
To take up the sword and defend
A paradise we never could comprehend
Located where the mellow road ends

In peace
In harmony
Our spirits free
From subtlety
