about
A book simply being left open doesn't make it worthy of a reader's attention. But, after a few pages, one can tell whether that book will remain intact on some tabletop or be ruined by repeated use over months and years of a life. There is a gravitational pull that, at times, lures us back to a favorite work by a favorite creative being. And no special effects could ever replace what really makes a great work of art in any field; CONTENT.
This collection of original music composed by Diggs Duke epitomizes that very theory that we all wish to believe. It's elegant design lies not in how it sounds on your car stereo, but in how it will integrate into your life. These songs were made for you to hum as you pick apples at the grocery store. They were made for you to sing as you feed your children or rock them to sleep. In their spawning of new concepts and recycling of seemingly old cliches, you will find, above all, a message and a melody.
*Bonus Track included when you download.
**The song "Blue & Blue" is no longer be included in this collection and will possibly be reissued in a future project.

Winding horn lines and electric guitar passages. Vocals used sparingly over a transition. Djembe played in a tug-of-war with a drum machine. This is the sound of Diggs Duke's music, which can be characterized as a fresh, yet familiar interpretation of the bond between Soul and Jazz music. Listen. ... more

- Track Name: Gravity

The leaves had fallen from their respective place of being
All of the windows were open
I imagined mountains each and every time you breathed
Meaningless words were spoken
You looked as if you'd loved someone before
But not I
So, could I be your pupil in this game of gravity
Mysterious forces are pulling me to you
Did my fortune lie in the bowels of a bottle?
I ask “Did my fortune lie?”
Am I where I'm supposed to be?
Perhaps, because one can't contradict gravity - Track Name: Funky Overdose

Give it up on the 1
Not enough
Gimme some Gimme more
Gotta have it more than most
Give it up on the 2
Mixing a perfect brew
I'm about to have a funky overdose - Track Name: Welcome

Welcome Welcome Welcome ooooo
Come on in
Take a seat - Track Name: The Epic Lie
-
The more we play these lame games
the more that we stall
the more that we roam
further from home
denying the past and holdin on
to our selfish selfish ways
the more we take ourselves for granted and behave
in the strangest ways
on a day to day
believing in everything that's said
like a fool
swimming in an empty pool
these eyes once upon a time
could see only the moment
to what's beyond we were blind
but now that it all has come to pass
the epic lie
now we've unsubscribed
These times are just the same as all
We jump to answer the stranger's beckon call
We even pass the practice on to the seeds
And tell 'em that it's all they need
And if you don't say no, you know
You might never know
There's only so far to go
'til you know
what they say you'll never know
