It is Saturday, February ten, twenty twenty four, and making his return to the program. It's been a little while, but we've had this gentleman on a number of times, Ray Coates, skyping in all the way from across the pond. As we say, Ray, are you there, I am hey, Absolutely, I'm welerful to be with you. Yes, it's wonderful to be with you, and it's great to speak with you again. And love that track for I. In my mind I was saying kronos, but in the song it sounds like you pronounce it cronos. I think it's an English thing.
Matt, don't worry about it, all right, Very good, very good. You say pat potato, I say Patato, although I've never heard anybody say patate only in the song yeah or tomato. I've only heard that in the in that that song too exactly. But yes, yes. Uh. By the way, Rays with us via Skype, which means the studio line is open. So if you have any questions or anything at all or feedback for our guests, uh, six O three two five O six oh seven is the studio line six O three two five O six oh seven. You can also text me at six one seven nine one seven four four seven six.
I'm on social media at Matt Connorton. You can email me Matt at Matt Coonorton dot com. But the best thing to do so that we can here and enjoy your dulcet tones on this Saturday morning. If you have anything for our guests, Raycoats, give us a call at six O three two five six seven. Excuse me my allergy. I'll tell you, I don't know what the weather's like their ray, but here's very warm, and my my, it's it's I'm gonna have to jump in there, Matt, because it's actually really good. So so it's unusual to be able to have the opportunity to say the weather is good here.
Yeah, so, no, it's it's it's it's really good here too. It's it's very warm and uh my, uh my sinuses have indicated that we're having an early spring. Oh go, yeah, yeah, funny enough. I'm not a million miles away from Manchester, UK. Ah, yes, yeah, yeah, I'm in a place called Warrington. I'm actually in the recording studio today and I thought I must share that with you. That Yeah, I'm just possibly not even ten miles away there or thereabouts from Manchester. So we share, we share even more in common.
That's right, that's right. Manchester is such a common name because here in the United States, there's actually a whole bunch of Manchesters. I like to think of, Oh yeah, yeah, there's a Manchester, Connecticut. There's a I don't know, there's a bunch of them. There's a whole bunch of them, very very common here. But I like to think we're the best cool and uh, ray, you've got a bunch of new music. You sent me several tracks. Well, uh we should be able to get them all in and great stuff, but we can kind of you know, as we talk about each one, you can tell us you know what's behind each track and who who officially is the artist on each track.
Because you like to collaborate, and you collaborate with a lot of people, so you've always got various different projects going. I can't keep it all straight,
but so it's fortuitous that you're here. Yeah, yeah, what what can you tell us about that song? Cronos or cronos. I think it's a I think there's an overview. What I've experienced is expand and that's why I create so much with so many different people, and I think that's an experience I share for others, not just for myself, but over so on. The architects of passion is me in a lot of projects I do. Generally, I tend to be the vocalist. In many occasions i'm the lyricist, although that's not always the case.
But it's basically it's about time and for me, so many references to a cronus or chronos in everyday language, chronology, chronometer, so many references, and I think the message is make the most of the bit in between, you know, make the most of them now, So it's a very very positive message. So regardless of wherever we are, wherever we are supposed difference is not a great fan of that that
it's now, you know, the bit in between. I was born in nineteen sixty five, I'm still here. I am here, and I'm aiming to be here for as long as I possibly can. So it's the bit in between. But often, you know, people think about the year of birth and an end, and I think the message in the song is we are here, quite simple, so make the most of it, make every moment count, And that's a very positive message to share. No, I think that's a very very positive message. It's something I try to do and fail at consistently.
Maybe I should listen to that song more. I am tom. I mean, my problem, Ray is I live in a perpetual state of existential dread. And it's probably not a good thing, probably not great. The only the only thing I would say is there's there's grounds for it, so it's not it's not unreal, is it? And I think I certainly wouldn't say I I live in the opposite of that. I think it's just through the means I use I just feel a very strong passion. That's where the passion comes from. And connecting in enabling others.
It is not trying to change minds or hearts per se, just using what I've got. Some people some people cook. Some people cook, you know, they provide beautiful meals for other people. Some people paint. I write songs and sing them. I'm really dumbing it down now, But what's behind it is the fuel is the desire to connect and the desire to enable people. Because we live in a very very scary world. So anything that we can do to help to realize there is more, There is more than that which we you know, we see and that we're we're worried about.
So yeah, keep listening to the song though, Yeah, yeah I will, I might, I might might make it part of my daily meditation. We'll see. No, it is, it is. It is really beautiful. And now, so the songs that you sent me, so you sent me for that, that's one of them and we'll get the other three in. But are these are these collaborations with different people, because like I said, you you are such a prolific collaborator. It's I I can't keep track of of of who you're working with on? What are these all over Saul songs?
I didn't they're not I didn't think so, yeah, that's the only one. The others are my birth name Breakoats as a as a performer. But the others are even more collaboration than the song that you've just played, shake it Up. And there are five versions of the same song, so they were all collaborated with different people, and the basic premises, same lyrics. An incredible human being in the UK, Caroline Brown, that's fantastic with words. And we've collaborated a couple of times previously, so same lyrics, same vocalist me, same four chord progression.
And I suppose in some ways I'm going to kind of be open and honest because I feel I am with you is I kind of was getting a bit tired and a bit fed up of, you know, this plastic way of the music business, particularly, and I'm in my fifties trying to make my way musically. I love what I do,
but I'm kind of starting a career, I guess you could say, at the other end of life, which is not usual you and I thought, okay, what can I do differently? So rather than thinking murmur horrible. You know, I wish I was younger, you know, I would be able to do more. Then I thought, no, you know, I need to do something a little bit differently. So the basic idea came up with five versions of the same song, all released at the same time,
and as far as I know, nobody has ever done that before. So in a way, if I'm doing anything, I'm sharing, think outside the box, do things differently and shake it up. There's Spin one, which I know you're going to play, Spin two, Spin three, Spin four, and Spin five. I'm now with a band who is Dan So ours is the fifth version, and they're all different because they would they would be because they're all different people and different collaborations. And I just I'm doing that. I'm shaking it up, creating a reform in in my own way.
You know what's cool about that ray is it reminds me of when I was a kid. If there was a song I particularly liked, the one of the most thrilling things in the world to me would be when I would find a remix of that song. Yeah, you know, and it's like, you know, because it's like this great song that now, oh, there's this other version, you know, and it would kind of renew the song for me. You know, it's like, oh I already really liked this song. Now I like it even more. There's this other version.
And I remember too getting these. You know, Vinyl obviously never went away, and in some ways it's there's more Vinyl than ever. But I remember when I was a kid, you know, these Vinyl albums would come out that were actually you know, they called them seven inch they were just you know, full of remixes. You know, you could get a song and then several different versions of the song, just different mixes. You know, there might be a dance mix, there might be a rock mix, whatever. And I just I always loved that.
That's why I'm someone too who I was always I like when people because not everyone's into it, you know, when people take other people's music and remix it or sample it or whatever configuration they're using it and using existing music to create new configurations of that music. But I've always loved that. I love it ever since I was a kid. You know, the mash up. The mashup is I think it's a real art form. Oh yeah, I really do. When people can you know, weave together different parts of different songs and actually make a new structure again.
It's like it's like cooking, isn't It's different ingredients and people are mixing them and that that's infinite. That's infinite what you can achieve. So and you've kicked off, in my mind, a twelve inch version of one of the Shake It Up songs on vinyl oh vinyls making a massive, massive comeback, So that could be a few future prospects as well. And I think it's this, if things don't work the way they want to work for you, find your own way, make your own way. And that's that's basically what I did, And I'll be open and honest.
It came a little bit from thinking, I feel like I'm banging my headquains to brick wall. But what I chose to do is stop doing that and think the wall's not going to fall down by you banging your head against Try a different way. And that's us as humans, isn't it. We find a way to reinvent things and do things, and that's that's what Shake it Up is. So if I'm going to give listeners any advice, you know, try if you can to have a listen to all five because it's a really really interesting experience because they are so different, so different.
Well we should play. Let's let's play the version that you sent me. Now, so this is so, this is shaken up. This is what do you call it? Version and one mix one. Let's spin spin one, oh, spin one, yes, yes, all right, let's give let's give this a listen. Now, although some people might not know what you mean by spin, but then we'll just remind people there are there are such a thing as as vinyl records, and uh, you know, and and and way back in the day, that's what they used to do in radio. They would they would actually uh put on put on vinyl records and play them.
But uh, all right, let's give this a listen. So this is the spin one version of a shake It Up. And this is this is not over soul, correct, this is Ray Coats, Raycoats featuring Caroline Brown. It's actually got the lyricist Caroline Brown her voice. Oh okay, okay, cool, all right, let's give this a listen. Here it is shake it Up Spin one, this shake it up right now, just shake it up, shaky God, the truth be off shaking my wondrous spin. Let's get the ripon even there, just a moment to sap the cli and the suffocating skin, the shaking a riding down the shagar riding.
Now, let's shake it up body now, shot shot you shake it up and shaded prospicidity doesn't man a bit. The great sun cats drive and blind calling wildly. We can't have a banging headscains the wall. The shake it a right now, let's shake here of d now see lit's see here up right now,
listen up, shave it up, waiting at the hope, struck numb by rules that make no sense at all. Let's see here last right now,
let's open up the door. Let's shake it up right now, Let's utilize the power. Let's shake it up right now. You'll shake it up right now. Let's shave here up right now. Just shave it up right now.
Let's shot up right now. That is very very catchy, shake it up, shake it up, spin one, what's that right? You're not going to igno, right, are you? That is catchy as hell.
I was sitting here. I was sitting here, you know, I'm often holding a pen and I'm sitting here tapping the pen on my knee while it's playing. Yeah, really really good. Ray Coates is here with us via Skype, all the way from the UK, and that is shaking up Spin one with Caroline Brown. That's who's on there with you. That's it. That's it, absolutely, yeah, yeah, really good. I love the Where do you record? I'm sure I've asked you this before because I love them the way that sounds. It's in near to Warrington is the best place I can describe.
And it's funny because I've heard Mark playing the guitar this morning, so as I'm listening to these tracks, I'm remembering and he's such a wonderful guy, Mark, and he's not particularly one of the people that comes into social media, which I totally totally understand and respect, but so intechral to everything I do. I come to Mark often with an idea of a song and he just puts so much incredible particular guitar energy into it and you know, takes it onto a different level. As you could hear, particularly in that song as well, the guitar solos are amazing.
The uh the first thing that I noticed is the drums are Now are those are those real? Drums or are those program drums? Because they sound they sound real programmed, Thank you, they're the program. But but funny enough with the band. Now with who is Dan? It's me Rob Fox, a drummer, and Chris Mikael guitarist. So now we're actually recording if you listen to Spin five, so shake it up, Spin five? Who is Dan? That is all completely real instruments. Okay, and yeah, so it's it is different. You're right, but it does.
It does sound authentic, doesn't it. It's amazing the drum sounds you can get now. You know, way back, I remember when when you know that the technology wasn't quite there as far as you know, like you could sort of tell, you know, I mean, I'm talking like thirty years ago. You could kind of tell when when drums were programmed because a lot of you know, if you if you go on YouTube, you can find a lot of demos of bands from you know, way back, you know, demos that were never supposed to be heard by the public.
You're only supposed to hear the finished product. But these things leak out and they get on YouTube and then you can hear you know, you can often hear program drums and these demos and you can tell. But now it's just amazing, Like those drums just sound really good, really punchy, you know, and obviously very important to the song. Really kind of drives the song. And and and now in terms of your your collaborating and you even't you haven't had me do uh for something, I was going to say that, I was going to say that thank you, which is part of a project of the next two songs, so that works, which is with a gentleman named John Sheatham.
I'll keep the message brief, but this is pretty much what John shares. He was in real estate, in property in the UK, and it took him to a couple of different countries, but particular particularly Bulgaria, and long story short, as part of a real estate deal Bulgaria went in the EU at the time,
John was shot by the Bulgaria mafia because they didn't want this ground to be purchased. And it was by a gentleman that had asked John, can you can you come with me to Bulgaria to you know, clinch this deal? And John was effectively left for dead. And it's a it's a it's an absolutely astonishing count I've sent you an electronic copy of the book Fall Guy. I would strongly recommend anybody you know. It's we're taking it from a book to film, which is sense where the soundtracks coming in. And Horsepower the song that you very very kindly gave your incredible voice, and it worked so well, and I knew it would.
You're effectively without knowing it yet. You are the horse race commentator and you're commentating on John's life and that will go into the song Horsepow, which will be part of the soundtrack album. And John is just he's a living miracle. How this guy is still alive. And it's not just the shooting, it's what happened afterwards. So this is going to become a film, no doubt. We've got some people interested, but we're looking to reach out to people as well. So that's a massive collaboration project at the moment that we're working on.
And your voice is absolutely perfect in not just your voice, but the way you deliver it. It fits so well and you'll get to hear that. Oh wow, yeah, I can't wait. Thank you. Yeah, I was very very honored that you asked me to do that, And yeah, that's quite a story he has. I mean, you know how many people have you met who can say they were shot by the Bulgarian mafia for one thing? Jeez? Absolutely, absolutely, And he's just one of those people that and he's a phenomenal lyricist. That's where we create and we're working on this current project, but also others.
And I think it's when you've only got two arms and two legs as much as you can in life, you want to try and grow a few more arms and legs. I think you know where I'm going, and that's where I'm coming from with incredible lyricists, because predominantly I'm a lyricist, but ironically I have all these people around me that create these words that then create the inspiration musically and me for the projects that are being shared. And full Guy is it's going to be an incredible piece of work. And the two songs so far fall Guy is the single that's released, Cry is going to be an exclusive.
This has never been played on a radio station. Ever, It's not released until next Friday, so the two songs are going to be exclusive plays, particularly in America as well. Oh very cool. Okay, Well, let's let's give Fall Guy a spin, Shall we wonderful? All right? All right here it is. This is fall guy Raycoat's live with us, skyping in all the way from the UK. Check this out. So we are made to take a far scan that was now in fun passes by, happy to collect body damage, mind rap surrounded by side as all ramp racing through that cold.
What's happened? Do you rest? Up? Signs fusifully telegraph lights days and you shine at days you hide the vein whilst looking down on your scene the plates. You know, sometimes it's just a lake the sun signs. We are made to take a farm. No matter understand, No man don't know the raison up became the foul quote un coming is the echo woe as they did part and disperse, trolley dest white coat wool all over the way. Too soon heavies came and throw me away. Unfortunately left him a little too lame sometime so be froze and passed down jumping must since I days then you shine, and days you hid the way I was looking down on you see fag.
You know, sometimes it's just made some signs. We are made to take your father, No man said, No man, tell no reason why African the farm girl one lay down until a firmer graund I can stay near the angels amplified sound. Now this no escape out to fight. I've just simply lost my life to sign signs be on me to take kerfoon. You never say no, how to reason? Why became to fun guy? To no reason? Why became to the phone guy? Fun guy? Oh that is cool, fall guy. We have ray coats with us, Yes, Skype and uh what that could be?
Uh that could be a James Bond theme, ray
perfect, your your your ears are a tru And that's it. That's it. Really, that's how I see it. I when I wrote the song and as it formed, and especially now in the form it is in, I often close my eyes and think of the screening because I've read John's story, I've read his life. Those are his words. He's the lyricist. So I picture, I picture images, and it's such a such a powerful story. It's it could sound like many things in life morbid. But we can't we can't avoid. We can't avoid. You mentioned earlier, you know, the scary things in life.
But the amazing thing is, as many people do, John's live to tell the tale and it's for him to share more than me in a way. But I'm just genuinely incredibly privileged to be beside somebody who is a warrior, a victor and just such an incredible grounded human being who has been no shadow of a doubt to hell n back and to be with him is incredible. We're going to be across to the US in the future. I know that John loves to travel, so you might have to try and get rid of us, but but it will be it will be a pleasure to share, particularly horsepower.
I'm very excited about that. So there's much to come, much to come from myself and John. And uh yeah, and you've still got that Uh do do people tell you this or is it just me to me? You've really got that Bowie vibe? I have had that before, And well, yes, thank you very much. I'll totally accept that. Yeah, yeah, absolutely absolutely, that's now. So when is that gonna When is the full album going to be out? For that date wise? Great question. I think it's around about June. Were gradual doing it a little bit slightly old school, I guess, releasing a couple of singles.
So fall guys out now, already that's available everywhere. Yeah, cry Next, then we have two songs I will name them now. I'm quite happy to do that, Folklore and Tales. I'm actually working on that today. I've had a very very victorious song called Run for the Roses. They're going to be the singles to begin with, and then the album will come out, which will include songs Vices, Horsepower, Thoughts, Time, and also a spoken version of full Guy. So John's voice is going to be included. I'm very much about integrating and embedding the spirit of people and voices and energy, so you know, I like that.
I love the thought of voices being included in things of people that are part of the project. It's like, for example, Caroline and Shake it Up. So, yeah, do you do you collaborate with people from I mean obviously you know you had had me do something. Have you collaborated with other people from America? No? No, not not recently. Have in the past, have in the past, but not recently, so a couple of years ago. But definitely want to. I mean, I'd love that, I will not I'd love I will I will be over and it's got to happen.
I want to create with as many people as I possibly can. So when you agreed to add in your voice, it is just it's so great, isn't it When you know you connect with people and what you do and your your voice as it comes through the airwaves, and you think, it's just so many opportunities to spin that off, no pun, intense, spin that off into other things. And I think that's what I want to do because I feel the more we can share together, the better. Well, well, that's the thing I often marvel it's uh, and I comment on it and on the show, is that it's an amazing time to be alive because you know, we have the ability with the technology that we have to to be able to collaborate with people so easily.
You know, you can email files back and forth. And you know, had had we had we existed, you know a few decades earlier, you know, we would have missed out on that. So it's it's really I think in a way that kind of goes back to what you were saying earlier. You know, you were talking about living in the moment that song chronos and you know, focusing on the now, and it's you know, if you if you do stop and think about it. The now is pretty incredible, you know. I mean, we're both old, and we're both old enough to remember you know, when uh, you know, a pre internet, you know, you you go to the record store.
And don't get me wrong, I have wonderful memories of being a kid and going to the record store and flipping through and finding things or CDs. You know. But but now, you know, we have access to so much and and we can collaborate easily with people in other parts of the world, and it really is pretty remarkable when you think about, you know, and people get people get nervous about technology too because of AI and things, and that's a whole other subject that we discuss sometimes on the show. But but but it's but it's pretty hard to be negative on you know, some people are technophobic, but it's pretty hard to be negative on technology and the grand scheme of things when you think of how it enhances our lives and in all kinds of ways.
But creatively, I mean, it's just what it does for us is pretty remarkable, totally agreement, and like all things in life, it depends on how it's used. So there's there's nothing wrong with a knife. A knife is not a bad thing. A car is not a bad thing. Hands are not bad things. It depends on how they used, right. So technology is not within itself a bad thing, right, It depends on how it's used. So I think the key thing is focus on, very very carefully the intention of everything, and not in a sense that is just a cliched throwaway.
Well, I'm using it for a good purpose. Many people could argue that for many different things. But I think for me and what encouraging others is whatever it is, you've got, use it to the greatest good you possibly can for yourself and of course, by extension, for others. And the more we do that with whatever it is, then the greater the experiences for us and for others. And I look at creativity in the same way. There's no threat, there's no competition, there's nothing to be afraid of because the thing will be more with more people, and that's really integral to everything I do.
Totally right. We couldn't have done in a way what we did, which was relatively smooth when you think about it. Oh yeah, of you sharing, as you say, a vocal file, a wab file that now is in the song and I'd love to be able to have the opportunity when it's completed to come back and play. Oh definitely, of course, Oh absolutely absolutely, Ray. But before we before it gets too late, I want to make sure that our listeners know where to keep up with everything that you're doing, everything that you're going on, you're always creating, you're always collaborating.
What's the best way for people to follow you and keep up with you. I think when I've worked out how I can keep up with me, then I think probably then fair enough. No,
website is probably the easiest placed. At my name, I'm very approachable, but the website is Raycoats That co a t E Voice dot com, so Raycoats Voice dot com. Across social media Raycoats or Raycoat's Voice. I wanted just to quickly say before we move on, to give a public thank you to my partner, Michelle Roach. And to be able to do what I do, which is a lot, and over the last few years it's expanded and extended. You need to be surrounded by good people. Michelle isn't feeling particularly well at the moment, just generally not particularly feeling very well, so I wanted just to say a public thank you.
There's no kind of flowering ness in that. I can't not mention Michelle because we've written together. She supported what I'm doing and has enabled the majority of what I share now. Wanted just to give a public gratitude to the show. Oh, very nice, very nice. No, I think that's that's wonderful. And you know, hope she feels better and yeah, no, that's very good, very good. Ray, Well, in a moment, we're gonna play well, we'll finish out the segment with this track cry and uh so I get this will be the world radio premire.
This hasn't been played anywhere else. Completely very cool, very cool, and anything you want to tell us about this track specifically before we before we play it without over explaining. It is John's return back to the UK from Bulgaria because of his injuries that were serious. It took him four and a half years to walk and talk again. Wow, he lost his property, he was living in the people he was working for at the time. Most of the names in the book have been changed because there's a number of safeguarding issues in terms of no doubt John, He's had to change change a few names, but the person he was working within the real estate was didn't take good care of John at all.
So John John was just basically hung out to dry and cry. The cover artwork so when people look for this when it's released officially next Friday, is John on the cover outside the property that he lost as a result of his life changing injuries and the financial reversal he faced, and the songs about where he was living. So it's very emotional, but it's it finishes. I want to share this message so that the song represents all of us. We've all had those days. Some days, we've all we've all had those periods where we just want to cry and we just need to cry.
So it's a representation of real, real deep level emotion and exercising those feelings through through crying, through crying, that's what cry is. Yeah, very good and as you uh you know, as your reference, it's relatable. We all, uh, we all have those moments. But wow, boy, what he all though. You know, I don't know really anybody who's been through what he's been through on that scale. So very interesting. So we will, uh we'll play that in a moment, but and uh, we'll let you We'll let you go Ray, thank you so much for joining us today, though, my friend, it's always such a pleasure to talk to you, and you know, and and uh you remind you remind me of some positive things, you know, in terms of living in the moment and stuff.

I'm my way to meet a friend. First thing, she said, Get those thoughts out of your head. I want this now to end. Go and smash down glass scenings, seek out those opportunities, open up that lonesome locktop, just like you've done for years before. You may lose a battle.

Then I began to realize the power everything that she said, raised those things out of your head on the snout said, So I'm went and smashed down those ceilings, shot up those opportunities. Don't that long slocktow, just like I done for years before. Remember how may lose about him?
Like when Lord, all I had to do was cry. All I had to do was cribed on doing that. All I had to do was cry out a bat a way from the inside. All I had to do was cry and cry and cry and cry. How love? The building is just a place in the memory's high It's not a home without you on the inside. We need to smash down those ceilings, seek out our opportunities, open up that along some later, just like we've done movie is before. Remember we may lose a battle, but we'll always win the war.
