Poetry by Silencio BarnesThe Words of Number FiveA short poem that I wrote for Valentines Day. Although it was for one specific person, I figured I'd share it. I used a piano melody that I found doing a creative commons search - it belongs to @RamesesB and can be found here: https://soundcloud.com/ramesesb/rameses-b-piano-improv-32014-02-1502 minSilencioBarnesThe Words of Number FiveA short poem that I wrote for Valentines Day.

SilencioBarnesLovengineI wrote these lyrics a long while back to this Ace of Base sampled beat made by DA (from @ShinobiNinja) - I forgot all about it but was going through my archives and found it. Since I haven't recorded anything in a while, I figured I'd start with this. It's just a verse and a chorus. Enjoy :)2013-07-2602 min

SilencioBarnesCan't Lose the Love (Sci-Fi Space Opera)Now...this is a really old track. I want to recreate it and actually finish the science fiction story :) If nothing else, I want to at least re-record the vocals and clean up the mix.

All Rap Music by SilencioBarnesLife of Lies (Produced by Maxwell the BeatFarmer)This is actually a really...really old track. It's only a quick one-verse piece but I think the lyrics are probably even more relevant right now. Maxwell the BeatFarmer made the beat a long time ago and sent it to me for my opinion. I dropped this little verse on it to show that it had potential. Check out BeatFarmer here https://soundcloud.com/beatfarmer-1
