  • The Archer by Splashdown off their Redshift EP.
    I tried to limit myself to uploading 4 Splashdown songs. I just couldn't resist adding this one.

    The only problem with Splashdown is the fact that once I listen to one of their songs it's over for the next 6 hours because I have to hear all of them. It's rare that a band can produce entire albums with every song being a masterpiece for me this band hits the mark every time. Perhaps it's just personal preference but it just seems as though each song they do they give it all in lyrics, arrangement, timing and variety and none of it ever seems rushed. Like they take care for each one.

      I'm determined to assert it's because of the INCREDIBLE passion and talent between Kasson and Melissa. They are two of the most amazing musicians I've ever come across. Their music is pure serendipity!!!

    Time kicked me off of her island
    Motion's been keeping me streamlined
    Which direction will you point your arrow?
    Mercy is bad for the vision, Ruthless will clear it away
    Have mercy Archer
    Hunger, it's just you and I alone
    I'm guessing targets
    Take aim and show me what you know
    Have mercy Archer
    Hunger it's just you and I...
    Loss confiscated my blinders
    Too far ahead got behind me
    Go for better, just forget the people
    They're not the eyes looking back at you from the mirror you've made
    Have mercy Archer
    Hunger, it's just you and I alone
    I'm guessing targets
    Take aim and show me what you know
    Comfort is only imagined
    Hunters are circling the skyline
    Which direction will you send your arrow?
    Mercy is still asking questions Ruthless has gone and explained
    Have mercy Archer
    Hunger, it's just you and I alone
    I'm guessing targets
    Take aim and show me what you know
    I do, I do, I do, I do, I...
    I feel so elated
    Would you, would you, would you, would you,
    Please bring me joy?

    I was in a dark place in 2004 with drugs and alcohol. Somewhere between Ironspy's rage, Beguiled's anger, Waterbead's lust and Archer's purity I fell madly in love with a voice...a voice I will always love deeply.

    Genius comes in many forms... This is one of them... Music that transcends you to another place and/or time... Music that can be listened to, by any species, 100 years from now, 1,000 years from now, and still be relevant. Ahead of its time... Pure musical reflection. Splashdown lives on...

    Man I use to listen to splashdown back in the day. I've always appreciated their creativity always exploring various genres and always making so much great music and this was back when I was enthusiastic about creativity. I'll always consider them an amazing band.
    Anyways, I can't get enough of this chorus of this song

    First impression: This feels like a mix between chill cafe music (In a Barnes & Nobles) and standard “action” music. It is faster than cafe music, but a bit slower than typical popular radio music.
    Future listens are required to better appreciate this song, it’s vibes and its lyrics.

    @synthastia It is it's own song actually, though not as clean as this studio version. The song is Pandora and was on one of their b-side albums (stars and garters)
