I'm thinking about a way of putting out a fire that's out of control. It startet just with a little spark and now it's burning with big flames deep inside me .... (mystery words) ...

Is it hard to smell rats here? Have I been here too long? There is nowhere to go now about to outgrow your abiding swansong The joker tries to focus but his horn-rimmed specs are made of glass Dim-sightet he follows a Golden impasse No war will make a difference His mind's just a useless sponge And I will steal softly through snow Through sunshine And I hear there goes a rumour They will only save the pretty ones The type that's got front-facing Eyes, like you

about

"Melody Of A Muddled Mason" is the natural successor to "Neo Dada", Jono´s masterstroke from 2009. Some of Jono´s finest writings can be found here, and he has refined his already considerable arranging skills to perfection, just listen to Bach's Beach and the title track for evidence. Jono lists movements like Rock in Opposition and the Canterbury scene and artists and composers like Frank Zappa, Stravinsky, Magma, Henry Cow and Gentle Giant as sources of inspiration. With his releases and stage shows he has now established his own signature, with mature compositions, refined arrangements, improved guitar playing and the introduction of subtle vocals. "Melody Of A Muddled Mason" is the sound of a composer and producer at the peak of his powers. The mint green vinyl and Kim Hiorthøy´s strikingly original artwork completes this extraordinary release.

My love for atonal complex jazz rock compositions mostly by frank zappa and a few others has led me here to Miriodor. This music takes many listens to really start to digest it. This is tough music to play I’m sure and unfortunately most people want to listen to simple 3 chord songs done by plastic people so I definitely wanted to support these guys and buy the digital album and I hope it’s not their last record, because yes you guys ARE getting good!
