  • Ellery Twining- Dusty Springfield’s Record Collection (Official Music Video)

    Video at Mistuxet TV

    On RESULTS, Ellery Twining follows up his critically acclaimed solo debut REVENGE with an exploration into the soundscapes of Post Pop.

    The third track on RESULTS is Dusty Springfield’s Record Collection.  Twining says, “Working at the  Mystic Disc record store since 1995 has brought many memorable moments of musical importance. When the store bought Dusty Springfield’s record collection, it was an indelible moment.”

    The music video for Dusty Springfield’s Record Collection introduces a young fan of Dusty Springfield’s music as she searches for her records at the iconic Mystic Disc record shop in Downtown Mystic on a recent afternoon. Unbeknownst to her, the ghost of Dusty Springfield will also pay a visit to the Mystic Disc.

    S.B. Butler is the first music video from Ellery Twining’s second solo album “RESULTS”, released 1 June 2023

    Check it out at Mistuxet TV!

    On RESULTS, Ellery Twining follows up his critically acclaimed solo debut REVENGE with an exploration into the soundscapes of Post Pop.

    He has described the work as “A contextual dissemination of the Generation X transformation into the Post Generation.” Further elaborating, he conveys that there are underlying themes of popular culture, childhood survival tactics, and the consequences of “socially acceptable divorce.”

    “This group of songs illustrates the experience of seeing through the eyes of Generation X kids during their childhood, and its reflection.”

  • CELLAR DOOR

    CELLAR DOOR

    I heard you knocking
    at our cellar door
    shakey made a run to New York
    and he had scored
    and you were desperate

    how did you know?

    acceptance proceeds at
    its own pace
    perception is constantly
    a step behind
    a step behind

    the bottle,
    empty.
    friday evening.

    the needle,
    empty.
    thursday night.

    it was a secret
    until it wasn’t

    the neighborhood kids didn’t hear our warnings
    they were simply kids
    tired of warnings
    tired of fighting
    tired of trying
    some survived
    some were revived
    and some of you died
