Meadow Argus – Dancing Through A Slow Apocalypse

New EP: Meadow Argus – Dancing Through A Slow Apocalypse

Jevan Cole’s new EP is here and it’s impressive. Singing, Guitars, A real band, real instruments, drums, plus synths, sampling, effects, modular synths, a plethora of post-apocalyptic sonic celebrations and emotions. If you are still able to enjoy music don’t miss this.

I love this EP and all of their albums. Have a listen with headphones on! The perfect fusion of Rock/band music and electronic/techno/dance/psychedelic.

I loved their last album Silverling, it was staggering. There are not too many artists in the music industry that can make a better follow-up album. But they did it. It makes me think that they may have the rare ability to keep this up for years. I’m hoping so. I’m inspired to do a new album myself now. Thanks, Jevan. Your music has always affected me deeply.

If you are starting to develop an allergy to autotune, this is the treatment your ears have been longing for. The singing on this album sounds so refreshing, nice and human.

Such great songs and soundscapes, so well performed and recorded. Listen very closely to it.

Read this great review about it from findnoenemy.com. An excerpt…

“You almost feel like you’re being transported into some other dimension, a whole other world to sink yourself in and immerse your existence within.”

That’s what I think too. I’m in a beautiful state after listening to it.

It helps you to hear the EP a few times without being interrupted by other albums. If you click it again you’ll see a number 1 in the center, that will loop one song. Click it until it lights up green and the 1 is not in the center, that will repeat the EP when the last track completes.

You could call your local radio station and ask them to play this song ‘House Husband’ which I think so many people in the world would love to hear, coming out of this challenging time…

Please let me know if you do.

An actual work of love and healing. Well done, Jeven and Meadow Argus!

The lyrics for House Husband…

— House Husband by Meadow Argus —

Could’ve been a fire fighter
Or even an aeroplane pilot
Could’ve been a lab technician
Once I was a rock musician
I was a conspiracy theorist
Then an aspirational careerist
Could’ve been a psychic healer
Cos I was a blackjack dealer
But I’m living here with you
And it’s all I want to do
I’m your
House husband
House husband
House husband
House husband
Wash the dishes, feed the cat
Clean the windows, shake the mat
Make the lunches, sweep the floor
There’s the bus, get out the door!
I’m your
House husband
Could’ve been a field ecologist
Even a leading urologist
Could’ve been an archaeologist
Maybe a celebrity proctologist
Could’ve been an adult entertainer
You’d’ve had me on a retainer
Could’ve been an astrophysicist

Your personal la lalalala lyricist

Move To Peace by Zylascope

 

I’m trying to find the author of the animation in this video. The music is a Zylascope track “Move To Peace” off our soon to be released relaxation album New Life Magic Part 2, but I don’t know who made the animation.

I found the animation on Facebook and it didn’t have an author’s name attached. In the post where I found it, many people asked, “who made it?”, but no one knows who made it or how it was made. Well not yet.

Do you have some ideas on how it was made? How would you make it?

If you have any ideas please leave a post at #Zylascope on Facebook. If you like it, let me know.

I put it on my Youtube channel to see if someone can identify the author for me. Please help me to find the author by sharing it and please leave a like or some other reaction. Especially if you don’t like it. How does it make you feel? What does it remind you of?

Enjoy,

Silverling by Meadow Argus

 

And yet another uplifting Australian music release.

Meadow Argus have a new album, “Silverling”

It features music written by Brisbane, Australia Guitarist and Composer Jevan Cole. Jevan plays a type of fingerpicking style acoustic guitar.

He released an album in 1997 called, “The Gatekeeper“, which I’ve listened to more than one hundred times since I got it in 1997. The Gatekeeper is instrumental guitar with mandolin as well. Jevan has been involved in performing, writing and producing a few albums since, which you can find here: Jevan Cole Music

His new album “Silverling” by Meadow Argus is truly magical. It’s a diversion away from purely instrumental guitar and we get to hear some electric guitar as well. Also, Silverling has some electronic music elements that give it a psychedelic lift and introduces an extra level of dreaminess to his music.

Once you’ve heard Jevan’s guitar playing a few times you’ll understand what I mean when I say “You don’t just listen to his music, you feel along with it.”

Also what is great about Silverling is the lyrics. They have a very organic Australian feel. They are sung mostly by female vocalist, Ellie Dalton, who has a unique ethereal quality that suits Jevan’s music in a wonderful way.

A truly beautiful album that I’ll be enjoying for the rest of my days. I really love it. There’s a unique diversity of instrumentation and there’s even a tune with Emma McDonald playing the saw alongside Jevan’s guitar playing. That has a spacey quality that is very mysterious sounding.

There were many people involved in the recording as you can see in the liner notes available via the link below. Jevan said this was mostly a recording project. But I’m sure you’ll agree that it would be unbelievable to see and hear this ensemble of talent live in a concert hall somewhere.

To me, Silverling is healing music. If you know of anybody who is going through a tough time or an illness, be sure to give them the link or click the social media buttons above to share to Facebook, Twitter, Messenger, Email or another social network.

“Silverling” by Meadow Argus is available on a limited edition 12″ Vinyl LP which includes digital download versions and unlimited streaming so it makes an ideal gift. If you don’t have a record player you can hear it for free.

Whatever you do, don’t miss out. This is a magical album…
