Broken Rhythm Single

https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/shanethemusician12
My new single. Much like before click on the image to buy.

Bruce Lee once said "it is difficult to have a rehearsed routine to fit in with broken rhythm." While he mostly applied that saying to his Martial Arts concept of Jeet Kune Do, which like many martial arts, often apply to life as well; I often wondered if this philosophy could be put into practiced with a different sort of Art. Music. So what I did was make a simple tune and then put it a note or so ahead, using different instruments, to break my own Rhythm and see if it will either be a thing of beauty, or painful to the ears. I'm proud of the result either way.

March of Hate and Anger Single

https://shanethemusician.bandcamp.com/track/march-of-hate-and-anger
This I made as sort of the Antithesis of my Walk of Shame and Sadness Single.  Here we have Hate-Face, the embodiment of Hate and Anger.  Much like Shame-Face he has only one answer to what makes him so angry and hateful. His answer? "Everything." As usual to purchase the song. Click on the cover image.

Walk of Sadness and Shame Music Video

This is a music video of a song I recently released. I set out to make the most depressing song I could. It's also the first animation I have done in years.  Sort of a test to see if whether or not I could do the same with Glockenvaltz. It was worth the effort but if I'm gonna do it with my major albums I'd need more time and better resources.

Anywho. This song is called the Walk of Shame and Sadness.  Like Glockenvaltz it's a wordless story.  However this particular tail is a somber piano story of a being known as Shame Face.  He walks around on cheery days with a cloud hovering over his head.  While he tries to remain stoic, the only emotions he can feel are Sadness and Shame.  To the point where he starts crying.  What is he sad and ashamed of?  Well if you ever were to gather the courage to ask him, the only word he'd say was "Everything."

If you want to purchase the song it is available here.
