VERSE: I don't need you walkin beside me. If you're only wantin to be alone. I don't want you sleepin beside me. If you're only waitin for me to go. CHORUS: But I want you, walkin with me, that's somethin I know. And I want you, I want you with me, taking that long walk home...

LONG WALK HOME words and music by David Schulman VERSE: I don't need you walkin beside me. If you're only wantin to be alone. I don't want you sleepin beside me. If you're only waitin for me to go. CHORUS: But I want you, walkin with me, that's somethin I know. And I want you, I want you with me, taking that long walk home... VERSE: I don’t need you lyin beside me, if it only feels like a lie. I don’t need you stayin here by me if you’re still just wondering why CHORUS: But I want you, walkin with me, that's somethin I know. And I want you, I want you with me, taking that long walk home... And I want you, walkin with me, that's all that I know. And I want you, I want you with me, taking that long walk home...

about

Voy is a " dynamic album" ... an unfinished collection of working tunes, sketches, minute dances, and improvisations. It's very much work in progress, with the best of these ideas hoping to find a fuller form, through collaborations with and suggestions from dancers, radiophiles, filmmakers, theatermakers, movers, shakers, and other inspired listeners.

Like you perhaps?

Several touchstone tunes from the past two years that aren't (yet?) a part of voy, though perhaps they'll make an appearance as voy grows and shapeshifts. Send along a note if a particular track inspires you to hear a new story, soundscape, dance, or image ...

Much of this music had its origins in improvisations with some of the wonderful dancers and choreographers I've lately been so fortunate to share studios with. Thank you Sara & Patrik, and Steph. Thank you Keira, Cassie, Matthew, Shula, Margot, Daniel, Andrea, Elena, Helanius, Sarah O, and all the inspiring DXers and 8s. Thank you! Several tracks here aired on The Story with Dick Gordon, which has since vanished from the airwaves — thank you Katie and Carol.

Sometimes a lovesong can sound like a lament. Happy Valentines Day!

PS: "Quiet LIfe Motel," my debut album heard on NPR and APM,is available by bandcamp as well ...

credits

released February 14, 2014

Eddie Eatmon plays melodious bass on "By Eddie's Hands" — he'll add more in the future, with any luck. Bob Novak mastered tracks 1-4, 7, 9, 10, 12 & 13. All music here was written, performed, recorded and mixed by David Schulman, who plays violin, electric violin, mandolin, and percussion, some better than others.

David Schulman image

David Schulman Washington, D.C.

Heard nationally on NPR, David Schulman’s music has been described as “mysterious and beautiful” by The Washington Post.

By turns nocturnal, reflective, funky, and cinematic, the music of violinist and composer David Schulman + Quiet Life Motel is a weave of jazz harmonies, shimmering orchestral textures, and international grooves. ... more
