World music songwriting that transcends the single band.
World music songwriting that transcends the single band. Music made round the world from 1990-2002. These songs are my legacy material. My life is an experiential journey of my own design and some of the end result has been recorded and/or live music and spoken word. I play a variety of instruments and sing/talk. Most of the songs on this page date from my recordings between 1995's "4" (under the Moniker Mr. Chaos, in Detroit Michigan U.S.A.) through to 2002's "In Stereo" (with Add Lib Lounge, in Helsinki, Finland). There are also some glimpses here of 1997-9s "Mr. Chaos Trio" from Mid-Finland; 2000's Bahasa Mix, from Malaysia; and 2001's Jazz sessions from Helsinki (with the Black Tuesday Quartet); and 2004 activist bluegrass recordings against GW Bush's "No Child Left Behind" schooling initiative. I hope you enjoy it.

Story behind the song
This song used to be called "Time", and appeared on the Night Train to Murmansk cassette EP in 1993. The add lib lounge version is entirely different: Matti Palanen's solo adds a reflection or two on the matter. John Hammink - Vocals and Guitar Matti Palanen - Lead Guitar Pete Christiansson - Bass Jarkko Lepistö - Drums
Lyrics
Follow a path precisely and you get nowhere From the top of the mountain you can't see what it is if you look above behind that cloud - the blue a backdrop for whatever's in your mind. One thing to limit us and it is time... You've only so much and then you're gone. Time is running out... So I'm on this mountain but where have I been? Does it really matter, should I fall and look again? If you wanna see stand underneath or behind... ...but if you wanna do it, just climb. One thing to limit us and it is time... You've only so much and then you're gone. Time is running out... Ypsilanti, summer 1993
