Description:
Introducing, for your listening pleasure macjammers, a new eclectic MickTrick track! Mark (MickD) released this as just a backing track a couple of weeks ago on iComps. Luckily for me, he was looking for vocal ideas and we worked together well on the "Lies Lies" track.
My beloved sister-in-law passed away earlier this year after losing a battle with cancer. After she died, I found a random message of hers that had got lost in my digital voicemail. I started to imagine different scenarios behind her message - and pondered the fact that people always think they have time. Here the woman calls and the guy neglects to call back. When she is gone, he realizes that the phone will never ring again to present her voice. In the song, the Drama unfolds with a kind of Greek chorus in the background - which is always the case with hindsight.
Music and production- Mark Deskin (AKA MickD)
Lyrics and Vocals - Daniel Staniforth (AKA Luna Trick)
Voice Mail - Barbie Flowers (1957-2008)

Lyrics:
NEXT TIME"Wish I could keep me life straight"
"gotta down-town brain"
"you think you got it hard mate"
"try jumpin' this train"
"Catch you on the next one"
"Another time, Another time, Another time, Another time"
Past-time
Fast time
New time
Rue time
In the garden beneath the shadows
There's a reason for her sorrows
In the garden beneath the shadows
There's a reason for her sorrows
"If only you'd call me again, love"
"I got these vacuum dreams"
"G'is a push and shove love"
"Me memory screams"
"Catch you on the next one"
"Another time, Another time, Another time, Another time"
Past-time
Fast time
New time
Rue time
In the Corner where the light fails
There's a mourner telling tall tales
"I'm waiting by the phone, dear"
"It's hard beggin' for the ringer"
"I'd kill for you to be near"
"But you won't lift a finger"
"Catch you on the next one"
"Another time, Another time, Another time, Another time"
Past-time
Past time
I Wrestle with my loneliness
It's harsh, this untimeliness
I'd sell all my selfishness
For a lock of your luciousness
Down-time
Frown time
Time and time again
Nothing but time
Down-time
Frown time
Time and time again
Nothing but time
"I've got this bloody powerful feeling"
"I think they call it regret"
"But there's learnin' in the yearnin'"
"And I'll find the answer yet"
"Catch you on the next one"
"I'll find the time, I'll find the time,
I'll find the time,I'll find the time"
Next time
Next time

Reminds a bit of early Tricky..but with a sort of upbeat groove.
Great lyrics and changes in the textures.
Like it
LunaTrick
I love the early tricky "christian sands" era - so I'll take that as a compliment!
kingbee
That was what I was thinking.
Christian sands is a great track so it's definitely a compliment
all the best

egobandit
Love the seemlessness of it the transitions are great Enjoyed thanks!
LunaTrick
MickD gets all the credit for that... he's got the production skilz!

Of course, reading the description adds more searing depth to this piece. I did find that the words "In the garden, beneath..." were a little soft and muffled, hard to understand. But the rest of it was crystal clear and well mixed. Liked the transitions and work you put into it. Did YOU sing the high-pitched amazing harmonies in this too? That was a treat... Mark really weaves a great bunch of music here too. Very powerful work. So good to know your sister lives on.
ttfn,
Drakonis
LunaTrick
You have perhaps found the weak spot... and perhaps we'll remix it at some point. Mark does brilliant work and I like working with him!
Vic Holman
very well done & complete. a really great collab project.
I'm glad to know that your sister is still deep in your thoughts.
LunaTrick
I've been enjoying your latest tunes... so having your ear means a lot to me.
And yes, she's never too far away... and finds a place in the music!
Alannah
.. that British Accent works well on this tune ..... (I also like the bits of female vox embedded here) .... took me back to the glorious 80`s when I lived in Britain ... and danced at the hippodrome ! Ah good times .... nicely done you two !
LunaTrick
I can see you dancing the hippodrome Alannah. Thanks for your enthusiasm as usual!
Joe Brady

Joe
LunaTrick
The greatest compliment is to receive repeat listens. I'll be checking out your music also.
Pretty Hot! A bit of a "Bowie" sound mixed with the sound of the old band "Madness." Loved it!
LunaTrick
I'l be checking out your music too!
ramonaji
I feel like there is a God, listening to this!
LunaTrick
... perhaps!
Char
