what we missed what slipped right through our fingertips who we kissed reaching for some state of bliss destinies curling in los angeles turned and tossed dreaming of the worlds we lost you, me barely free, and casting around for more crashing the shore, mulling about working it out wish we knew jumping out the avenue what was true rolling like a pool cue where to, where to now? attribute purple like my vintage suit parachute rendering these lyrics moot.

yeah, i heard what you said. i'm thinking it over. our code's not nearly red and we're not nearly dead. i read your latest plan. i gotta be honest. it's got some promise! and the moment's nearly upon us. yes, it is. we've seen our share of yesterdays less than our share of sorrows when there's nothing left to say well, i guess, we'll run out of tomorrows. we'll just run out of tomorrows. ba da bip a doo da doo da doo da doo da dee tee dee da-a-a. you've heard it said before by somebody smarter maybe jimmy carter - or some rock star martyr when i walked through that door the electrical socket that's in my pocket reached back and magically locked it behind me. and we surfed upon that salty wave got water up our noses those memories we try to save dry up like petals on these roses like petals on these roses! ba da bip a doo da doo da doo da doo da dee tee dee da-a-a. we look up to the galaxies ah! some say it's god's design but i believe this laughter that we're laughing is the only thing that's truly divine yeah, it's the only thing it's the only thing! it's the only thing! the laughter, and the love i feel for you. ba da bip a doo da doo da doo da doo da dee tee dee da-a-a.

about

Kismeticulous is a word that encapsulates the Beyond-o-Matic approach to music.

An embrace of the random and unexpected events, both musical and otherwise, that shape our journey.

A willingness to work diligently within this framework. To be meticulous within the randomness that we embrace.

In 2014, Synthesist Kurt Stenzel suffered a stroke which limited his ability to communicate and to use the right side of his body. However, his creative fire was never diminished. Living across the country, Singer / Multi-instrumentalist Peter Fuhry strived to facilitate Stenzel's ability to make music again.

After years of rehabilitation and experimentation, they finally found a way to work together again. Along the way, they rekindled a musical relationship with second Beyond-o-drummer Frank Grau, who contributed focus, energy and insight with his contributions to the sessions.

Here then, is the result. The rules which previously governed the band have, by necessity, been wiped clean and rebuilt. But the spirit and the sonic adventurism and soul, hopefully, remain and is ever stronger.

We hope you enjoy this offering as much as we enjoyed making it.
