Written, arranged, performed and produced by yours truly

Dear friends,
I'm truly happy and excited to share this pre-vocals, fully completed instrumental version of "Welcome to the Show" with you all. I'm never one to consider writing and/or producing fluff tracks (of which we are all unfortunately bombarded with daily and endlessly, and in turn quickly forget,) for the reasons that I believe artists should be making the efforts and writing songs of value and lasting statement.
Pop/house/dance tracks have their place for certain, but can they not at the same time mean something?
Even the thump, thump, thump of a real deep house or trance track can stir many emotions (and libidos) so I think we should expect that of all music, even if the desired result is to simply "get up and dance."
These are the soundtracks to our lives, and I hope we don't go down with best moments memory thinking any of us should "move like Jagger," despite the fact that I can't seen to get it out of my head. Hey, not everything needs to be about a serious subject, and letting loose and getting a grove on is as important as deep reflection, but make it good, and make the words and sound count.
So to that effect I'm going to make this one count.
Here is the sound, expect the words.

Global awareness and participation is the start.

I'm sick of hearing the phrase "never again" when never again is on repeat.
This is the revolution of global village community that we've needed since the Internet came into existence, but yet again a segment of our global village feels it necessary to miss the historical point of it all, and foolishly bah the campaigns and significance of it. If you're of the latter, with nothing more to add to this new consciousness other than complaints and negativity; then please just fuck off, and let the rest of us try as we can, to make a change, one person at a time.
