Early last year, I wrote a song called ‘Big Blue Veins’ on LOGIC.

Hey There,

I’ve always loved designing and making cards, and like using materials, I already have lying around at home. So here is my latest pack of card designs using quality paper and personalised ink trees, which contain a range of wishes. The design is hand printed (literally), and the message is typed using a vintage Triumph typewriter which I inherited from my late father.

Each pack contains 4 x handmade Tylea cards wrapped in brown paper/twine and official Tylea stamp with number on the back.

There will be a limited run of 13 packs (4 cards in each group) and purchasing these cards will also get you a free download of my latest released track, ‘Steal’.

To order, check out my Bandcamp page to order:

p.s. There is another track coming shortly and look forward to sharing that with you.

Back in June, I uploaded a track + video called, ‘Steal’ to YouTube. I forgot to upload it here :O You won’t find the track on Spotify, but it is available to listen/or purchase on Bandcamp.

“Steal” is an instrumental bonus track I produced, recorded, and performed. It was mixed by Magoo aka Dr Goo and was written and recorded at my home late last year. Originally, it was a full lyric/song but I decided to strip away the vocals and keep the guitar, bass, and guitar parts to make it more of a reflective guitar journey. If gota cola* was alive today, I would have probably brought it into the band room for my lovely band mates to make something better of it. But there you go. 🙂

I shot the video using an iPhone on a train journey up to central Queensland earlier this year. I also edited the clip on my phone….so quality isn’t great. It was a bit of a challenge shooting the footage solo, but I got there. I edited the clip on my bed while recovering from a Fibromyalgia flare-up; the editing work done lying in my bed was distracting because it allowed me to still remain creative while in a flare-up.

*Incidentally, 2021 is the 20th anniversary of Gota Cola’s 20th anniversary “Guaranteed Rustless” on Valve/Warner. In that year, “Sighing”, “Wavelength’s Phase”, “Eddy” and “Rabbits” were gota cola’s most played tracks from the album on 4zzzfm. The band also played three live songs from their debut self-titled EP on the AusMusic show in 2000 amongst a busy tour schedule. (Tracks performed: Eddy, Sighing, Vinyl Car)

Emergency

This is an emergency

I am echoing on every word that fades

And I try to follow your soul like wind on smoky days
I am carrying on without your sweet embrace
But life is difficult that way

I keep worrying on every stroke I make
And I feel I’m forgetting our time with every sea that’s changed
There’s a cost to being empty
I’m at a loss to leave here lonely

This is an emergency (help me now ‘cause I cannot breathe)
This is an emergency (help me now all I do is dream)
This is an emergency (help me)
This is a ….aaah

I keep carrying on, in every breathe I take
And I try to carry the load in every chord I play
But If I worry about all these growing shades
Life is difficult that way
Whoah!!
Oh Yeah

This is an emergency (help me now ‘cause I cannot breathe)
This is an emergency (help me now all I do is dream)
This is an emergency (help me)
This is a….aaah Aaah, yeah! Oh yeah! oh yeah!! Oh yeaaahhhh! Oh yeahhh! Ohhh!

This is our emergency (help me now ‘cause I cannot breathe)
This is our emergency (help me now all I do is dream)
Help me now cause I cannot breathe
Help me now all I do is dream
Help me, help me!!
Aahhh
