Here you'll find back stories about each Section of the 5-part Suite and the artists for each section...
1) The First Song
Byron – Lead Vocals, Drums, Percussion, Bass Guitar, Lead and Rhythm Guitars
Anna V - Lead Vocals
Lola Visentini - Synthesizers
A humorous tribute to the internet music business, and the music business in general. Dedicated to all the people past and present who made it possible … standing on the shoulders of giants. And to independent musicians everywhere, trying to manage their own projects, but fortunate to have a way to share their music.
2) Balance Your Choices
Byron – Lead and Harmony Vocals, Guitar, Synthesized Piano and Cellos
Lola Visentini – Lead Vocals
This humorous, 30-second jingle begins with a beautiful guitar intro. It was written when Byron was doing radio call-in shows about his book, Balance Your Choices.
3) Earth Underture
Same artists as I Come From Earth song
This is Byron rapping over the track of I Come From Earth. This song mentions every song title on the album, or a reference to the lyrics. This song began, the first line, as a response to the last lines of Balance Your Choices, which was only a joke, but I had to respond.
4) Beyond
Same artists as I Come From Earth song
This is a continuation over the track of I Come From Earth. This is one of the deeper lyrical songs on the album, a philosophical rap about not knowing everything, culminating in a quote from Chinese philosopher, Confucius, and the advice given from an old man.
5) Earth Reprise
Same artists as I Come From Earth song
This is a reprise of I Come From Earth, with the lead guitar instruments varied slightly, including a lead guitar part that's a tribute to the late Tommy Bolin. It's the middle section, which was edited from the main version of I Come From Earth. And there's a bit of Dobro and Steel Guitar at the very end, which could be a sneak peek at another future version of I Come From Earth...
Written and Produced by Byron Lee Scott
Mastering by Luis “The LP” Pacheco at The Hideout Studios, Las Vegas
About the First Song Suite, from Byron: This 5-part suite of songs was one of three selections on the album that were written or put together after the album was initially finished, decided. It started with the idea of The First Song and kept growing.
Trying to do everything to release music can be a huge task, especially for small, independent artists. It's easy to get caught up in all the promoting and make a task list that keeps growing and is impossible. So, I just remind myself, I simply love writing songs, that's it.
Nevertheless, I hold to the idea that sharing music on the internet is a fantastic music explosion, and artists have it easy to share music compared to the old ways before internet streaming. It's easy to get caught up in all the promoting shenanigans and make a task list that keeps growing and is impossible. So, I just remind myself, I simply love writing songs, that's it.
