I wanna be clear on what we're talking about cause right now I don't know. And every single time we open our mouths it's like we're always switching codes. And something you just said you know well I can't quite make it out. But in our native tongues you know I'd rather we'd be making out. Did I just say that out loud? Every time I find myself walking down this road. It's the same ole talking in my head. Oh my soul, be brave! Between my ears you'll find a fuzz and it won't stop humming. And I know somewhere someone's up to something. Hey don't forget about your confidants. Don't forget about your community she said. Cause the ocean needs the river my dear and that river it needs the sea she said. Don't lock us up like winter with your brand new steel set of keys. Cause inside there's a creature and he won't stop gnawing until he's please. I hope I don't manifest no disease. You'll find me find me hiding neath the tree of everything. Baring fruits of thoughts and emotions and tangerines. You know I'm looking for some sort of savior i'm looking for some spiritual awakening. Oh come out, olly olly oxen free! So I sat next to Brother Fire and I looked deep into his flames. He showed me all those crossed wires I have creeping and tangled up in my brain. I said sir what do you require I've got a meager pocketful of change. he said you already have the desire and the answers are pulsing through your veins. But sometimes I feel so far away. I followed the ants all the way across the stones. Carrying their leaves they looked like sails on tiny boats. All the way over the sea just to see. Hey bugs, what's the meaning of all of this?

Golden road to the sun. Secret sidewalks in the sky. Ancient bang in my mind. Constant stitch in my side. Our lady of little reminders. Hail Mary full of wonder. This whole dame thing does not revolve around me. But you can't discount all the mystery That is shattering scattering gathering and swirling Who will be my serpent of wisdom? A key to clarity. All the way over the sea just see You will not die from all your curiosity You will not perish from all of your seeking And it's time in your mind cut the marionette twine And you are free. Sell my old car I'm off to Spain. 500 miles and away we go. The holy trinity walks the Milky Way. 3 lovely lilies 3 little lovely sparrows. I didn't hear you what did you say? Cause St. Chris was humming on the radio. We donned the scallops when we left the train. The road is long & there's much more to go. 360 384 Les lunes de moi, les lunes de mes amours. I didn't catch that what did you say? It doesn't matter now cause you're with me.

about

It started as Early Magic, this nowhere notion of nowhere dreaming. Music made of pilgrimage. It started in Iowa, migrated to Michigan, and continues as Tom Hymn: the minstrel poet of the mundane. He walks. Across Grand Rapids. Across entire countries. And his second album, Tom Hymn’s Tangerine Dream, contains each step, taking you on the journey with him: the dirty feet, the blistered sunburn, the fantasy. The album is a lullaby of slinky folk trance garage punk from la Época de Oro. It’s solo. It’s full band. It’s hymn and harmony, plainsong and prose, together and apart. You feel it, like a friend confiding, like a road trip, like a campfire song. It is the soundtrack to your sleep, Tom Hymn’s Tangerine Dream, and your subconscious demands a listen.
-Tyler Dunning
