After releasing 5 cds with ATOMSPLIT, singer songwriter Douglas James Davenport (aka DSazster) releases an amazing “solo” CD of 16 new songs.

The music spans from relationships, to spirituality, to humorous observations (like “Old Rockers, New Records”) and each song features multi-layered acoustic guitar, vocal and bass instrumentation.

Songs on the record…
01 “You Deep Somehow”
It’s Springtime. The birds, the bees, the pollen filled trees. Here’s a nice and sweet romantic song. It’s a chord progression part I’ve been working on for awhile. But I desparately needed inspiration to finish the lyrics. I found some…

02 “She Can’t Help”
Are you the girl that second guesses everything? Even when things are coming along nicely there’s always that lingering doubt that the past will repeat itself. Then girl, this is your song.

03 “Thick to Thin”
The song speaks to the dilution of a relationship through time. Typically early on you might call one “thick”. But then as time takes it’s toll. And reality takes it toll. And the Law of Rhythm takes it toll. Etc, etc, etc. You become “thin”. You all know what I’m talking about. Think about how many “dead friends” you have out there. Such is the way I suppose.

04 “Next to This”
This is a ballad called “Next to This”.
Inspired by true abstract life.
Without drama we would have no art right?
Have you ever asked yourself when you end up in a good, content place, “what else is there?”
>Listen

05 “Walls No Ceiling”
A song about having safety and security,
but also the ability to expand one’s horizons. Kind of like parents who take care of you and also encourage you to follow your dreams, or a mate who you’re totally in sync with but allows you to also follow your goals. Make sense? I think it could also be interpretted as God in away, too. The safety and support of God.

06 “Grateful”
Much of life we take for granted. Sometimes when were too deep into things it’s good to step back, take a deep breath and feel grateful.
>LISTEN TO SAMPLE

07 “Achin 2B With You”
Ah, that feeling of happiness when you are just aching to be with somebody. It overpowers just about every other emotion or mindset you could be in. Relish in it.
>LISTEN TO SAMPLE

08 “Hey Holiday”
I was on an outing with Team Husky and the phrase Hey Holiday swooped into my head. And I realized how much I was looking forward to it. Really for one particular reason more than others. So, read the lyrics, listen, and see if you can figure out what I mean. And I sincerely hope there’s many of you out there who feel the same.

09 “Bittersweet Valentine”
This song is about having faith that there is Valentine out there for you but he or she is not quite there yet. Maybe you met her and haven’t quite sealed the deal but you hope too. Maybe it’s someone from your past you’re no longer with.

10 “Humility”
It must be all my spiritual studies of late. I’ve discoverd – or realized – that humility is a good thing actually. That when you have a troublesome situation it is helpful to admit to humility that you don’t know the answer. Then let God or the Universe or fate (whichever is your personal preference) take care of it. Just surrender it. It’s a good way to live.

11 “Love is a Four Letter Word”
Love is indeed a four letter word! I know I’ve felt it many times and I’m guessing you have too.We Here’s a little song from the male’s point of view after his gal leaves. He’s pissed, hurt, and full of angst. But still has a tid bit of faith that she’ll come back.
>LISTEN TO SAMPLE

12 “Old Rockers, New Records”
Have you happened to notice how a number of “classic” old rockers are putting out new records these days. Like Bob Segar, Tom Petty, Robert Plant, etc. Thing is the radio won’t play them. They play the old safe music these folks made 20-30 years ago. Just plain frustrating. Maybe there is a satellite station or something that plays them? I guess you are just supposed to buy or download the music and enjoy it on your own.

13 “self Celebrity”
Your self probably rules the roust, huh? Makes you doubt, makes you mad, makes you hate? This song is about that. Because folks, that’s your ‘self’, not your “Self”. For if you lived by Self direction, you’d love everyone and everything. But it’s cool ya’ll. After all, we’re only human. And we do the best we can do. So don’t sweat it. Deep huh? Deep.
>LISTEN TO SAMPLE

14 “If You Were Me”
I was reading Tolstoy’s “Confession”. It was really depressing. Though I was told it ends hopefully. So this song is about depression more or less. When something happens that you consider bad or upsetting. You don’t know what to do. You ask people for help…”If You Were Me What Would You Do?” . Also when you get input from others you may at first feel defensive and frustrated. But the ideas – if they are true and good – slowly gain acceptance. At least that’s how it is for me. But I know everyone has different reactions to stress. But overall I’m sure everyone has asked If You Were Me? at one time or another in their life.

15 “Red My Mind”
This song is about Starbucks. And James Blunt. It’s my own take on his big hit song. You know the one. Only MY story ends mucho better.
>LISTEN TO SAMPLE

16 “End Up Here”
This is it folks. The final song on the CD. How fitting that I call it “End Up Here”, eh? I decided to end on an acoustic and vocal only track. No big production. Just pure essessence. It’s a tune about fulfilled dreams and desires. About ending up where you always hoped you would.
