lyrics

The lights are bright and times are good
I'm going out, I'm going out
A big black car is taking me
I'm going out, I'm going out

I'm in the back, I'm looking out
I'm going out, I'm going out
Flashes flashing all around, interest seems high
I'm going out, I'm going out

Now I'm at the cinema, I think I'm in this film
I'm going out, I'm going out
Back into the car, driving through the country

Does anyone really care about anything I do
I'm going out, I'm going out
I'm sitting in a chair, I'm waiting
I'm going out, I'm going out

Waves of Now
by Steve Roach & Robert Rich

supported by 4 fans who also own “A Show Like This (7" Mix)”

As someone who has also been actively working at various pursuits for 30 years (or more…sigh), it warms my heart to experience the freshness and creativity in this lovely tribal ambience while also seeing it remain true to lifelong artistic visions. Listening takes me deeply into the heart of the now, and actually makes me want to be here. Thanks to both musicians also for making this music available for free: may your gift of love be returned a thousandfold. Dave Aftandilian

"There is a somewhat paradoxical sense of an industrial landscape and an ostensibly barren, alien world. Dissonances develop and ebb, as do less uneasy elements, purring and whirring in the fog...A thoughtful and deep work for your subconscious to ponder. Side B heads into truly glorious, if subtle, territory" -excerpt from Deft Esoterica issue one review Claude
