The Rise and Fall of... Mark Zonda!!

It's been 2 years since LeBleu asked me to collaborate for his genius project "The Rise and Fall of...". It has been a great honour and pleausure for me, and I hope I'll have the chance to collaborate and have fun with this talented artist and cool guy next time not so far in the future


Preview of the RISE and FALL of . . . leBLEU from Phillip Lockwood-Holmes on Vimeo.


Starting from November the 3th you will have the chance to get your copy of the album from LeBleu site. Here you can check a sneacky quicky yet brilliant preview of the project, that luckely enough could never had the chance to rise and fall into place in a more appropriate period of western culture history.

Ta by now.

The Ronta EP

It's a fucking commercial...

Somebody's Got To Tide

So. Let'e tide it up a little bit.
It's been what, two years? One? I just don't know. Some songs are less youngers than others (they could get offended by being called "o.l.d.".

I came up with this bunch of demos and ideas, and I think that now it's time to gather'em up and start to make'em shine like pure diamonds along with the Tinies.

In the meanwhile I'll keep on wirite stuff for the next "TenneT" album, leaving you with memories and a bunch of free demos :)

S♥L

Argh! So many inspirations and so little time to affort what giant wave to take advantage of it! S♥it!

Well. Let's start with the list of the things I wasn't able to do
1) Change template to the blog and Myspce
2) Write lyrics for... well... FIVE songs...
3) Uploading "The February Sessions" double LP
4) Going out on saturnday! :D

But at least I've managed to end this little demo. It's called...

Tiny Tide - S♥L

... and it's meant to be the first song for the new album called "TenneT".
Oh yes. I'm writing new material for it meanwhile I'm beginning to work on the emproved versions of the selected material of what will become "Febrero" (the album) with the rest of the band.

I originally planned to take a little pause before going back to write new material, but it happened that the choir of this new songs came to me in a dream, and so I urged (just like for another song playing right now in my head) to record it in a demo before being left by its memory.

In the original dream the song was played by a not so distant radio, and it was played by "The Apples in Stereo". In the end it the demo came out to be quite "Belle&Sebastanesque". Guess it's all because of the drums, but I think that it's a good song anyway.

What's your opinion? Here comes the lyrics :)

"Lucy, you see, is fine
Lucy, loonie, be mine

I could talk but my tongue is tied
I could look but you're out of sight
I should give smooth hands but I'm playing hard

I could smile but you seem so far
I could lie but I won't back down
I shoud speak my mind but I'd spoil the sound

You told me it's over
But how's supposed to be over
How can you claim it's the end
When romance has never began

You swear that it's over
the wrong last leaf of the clover
I should stop hang where you stand
It's YOU that came in my place"

Point Of View Point

Well. Almost a year ago I started to plan an album.
I struggled and bugged friends to find out a good name, but after a couple of songs it was clear that the less inspired "Love&Pop" had to be replaced with the obvious "February". Then it came the band, and after the band the next generation of the band. I planned 14 strong songs for the album, and now the songs are up, in form of demos, and the album is gonna be called "Febrero", as we're gonna work hard to show the brightest side of those songs.

It took more that a year and a half to write that material, and as me and the band we'll work on Februero and a new ep is coming out, I'll start ( I actually already am) to write new stuff for the next album, called "TenneT".

Now. The question is: do you want me to keep the same graphic for blog and myspace for another year or should we go for the "TenneT" style?


For Italian Readers:

E' passato un anno da quando il progetto "February" è stato varato. Anzi. Quasi due. Quando ho iniziato a lavorare a "Kitty Jesus", "Road to Fairies", "February", non immaginavo neanche lontanamente di essere cosi' fortunato da poter contare su una band. Ora parecchio tempo e' passato, i 14 brani che mi ero prefissato di trovare per l'album si sono fatti acchiappare, e lavoreremo ancora a lungo al meglio per fare brillare questa canzoni al meglio delle nostre possibilità.

Nel frattempo sta per uscire un nuovo EP con i rifacimenti elettronici di alcune canzoni nati dalla collaborazione con Wildheart, e (visto che ci ho impiegato due anni) postero' impressioni e demo del nuovo album che mi mettero' a scrivere (Si chiamera' "TenneT").

Ora. La domandona è questa: preferite che mantenga questo layout per myspace e blog ancora per un annetto o due finche' l'album non è finito o passo al "TenneT layout"? :D

3 Cheers 4 My Guests :)
