ALFONSO LLORENTE: VOCALS & ACOUSTIC GUITARS

My personal version of this classic

BEFORE YOU ACCUSE ME  (Bo Diddley)

Did You See My New Car ?

ALFONSO LLORENTE: LYRICS, VOCALS, ACOUSTIC GUITARS, BASS, ELECTRIC GUITAR & SYNTH

No matter how our differences are abysmal, somewhere in Heaven we´ll see each other, and we´ll forget of how we suffered.

LOST IN HEAVEN

Somewhere in Heaven we sit together,
No matter if here we´re apart forever.
Somewhere in Heaven we are equal,
Though here our differences look abysmal.
Somewhere in Heaven we love each other,
Even if here we only suffer.
Somewhere in Heaven we won´t be lonely,
We will be with those who left abruptly.
Somewhere in Heaven there is no future,
There is no time for a departure.
Somewhere in Heaven we won´t have memories,
Of all those moments that caused us injuries.
Somewhere in Heaven we´ll surrender,
To whom we called daydreamer.

The day will come to cross the bridge,
And we´ll feel to be on the ridge.
Of our lifespan in the shadow,
Where the road to love is always narrow.
We´ll leave our dreams for our children,
And their memories of love won´t be broken.
And as we cross the bridge,
Our memories of love will be on the ridge.
To show us where we are to sit together,
No matter if we were apart forever.
To tell us how we are all equal,
No matter how our differences are abysmal.
Somewhere in Heaven we´ll see each other,
And we´ll forget of how we suffered.

LOST IN HEAVEN  (Alfonso Llorente)

30 Odd Years

This is a song from my vault I recently found and converted the 4 track cassette master to digital. I had written a violin part to accompany my acoustic, and brought my 4 track to a friend’s place and she listened to my song and recorded the violin part in one take. I’m happy to share this song for the very first time!

On My Own (original analog track)

Walking by four-note chords.

This work can be considered a continuation (or a second track of the same album) of one of my previous works "Parsimonious Trichords".
This is the case since in the elaboration of its harmonies I have followed the same line of work but taking one more step in the current work. In the harmony of the two works I have used the Tonnetz. This comes from the German term "Tonnetzwerk" which means network of tones. The prototypical case is the one that is formed by the major and minor chords (of three notes) organized in such a way that those that are contiguous only differ by a single note (with only a semitone or tone of difference) and on this network we can go chaining the chords following different itineraries or paths thus defining the harmonic progression. In the work "Parsimonious Trichords" I used this Tonnetz with three-note chords. The present work tries to go a step further and use four-note chords to define the Tonnetz. To achieve this I have applied the ideas developed by Dmitri Tymoczko in his excellent article "The Generalized Tonnetz" (dmitri.mycpanel.princeton.edu/tonnetzes.pdf). The objective will be the same: to get a network that organizes the chords (in this case of four notes) in such a way that those that are contiguous continue to be differentiated by a single note. In this case, to achieve this, it is necessary to use 12 chords of dominant seventh, 12 chords of half-diminished seventh, 12 chords of minor seventh and 6 chords of French sixth. To achieve To achieve the harmonic progression, on this network of chords I have defined 7 itineraries (one for each part of the work) of the so-called Hamiltonians, which means that they go through all 42 Tonnetz chords once and only once. As can be assumed, the chord succession that is achieved is also very parsimonious in the sense that there is very little variation between a chord and the one that follows it.

The work of creating the Tonnetz of four-note chords and as well as the elaboration of the itineraries I have done it by programming a series of algorithms in Python language.

Regarding the rhythmic aspect of the work, I have used an archetype: the rhythmic "motif of the walker" (half, quarter, quarter) for two reasons: one, which is quite evident, to reinforce the concept of itinerary or path and the other as a small tribute to the recently published book "Paisajes del Romanticismo musical" by the composer and theorist Benet Casablancas since it is one of the many characteristics that he analyzes about the music of the Romantic period.

For all these reasons, the exhaustive title of this work could have been "Walking through the Hamiltonian itineraries of the graph (of minimal variation) of four-note chords." which I have not dared to use for obvious reasons.

Regarding the interpretation, it should be said that it is done through NotePerformer playback engine.

This song is about making a mixtape or playlist for a significant other to help then know what they mean to you.

"Good To Be Back Again"       

You gave up what you wanted 
You act like you don't see          
You're standing on the edge               
And looking where you'd be               
Somedays you can't make it          
Still you hold the key              
I know we'll find our way back home   
Cos you make me believe                 

And you know
It's good to be back again             
It's good to be back again             
And I hope you know                    
We'll make it right again

I wish that you would tell me         
What you've come to see                  
And is our situation                    
Another broken dream?                  
Sold you what you needed           
But it's no place to be                 
I know we'll find our way back home     
Cos you make me believe                  

And you know
It's good to be back again
It's good to be back again
And I hope you know 
We'll make it right again

It's good to be back again
It's good to be back again
And I hope you know we'll make it right
I hope you know we'll make it right
I hope you know
We'll make it right again

Good To Be Back Again

Just another old one man band unsigned musician who sings and plays a little guitar, bass & drums and fools around on the piano; expert in writing songs that usually disappear with the wind, and in composing musical flops.  Folks say that I´m a composer, but I think they´re wrong: I just download the music I hear and feel in the atmosphere and give it back to the people. I don´t do a living from music; I ´m an attorney and horse breeder who gets noisy when I download the music I hear and feel.Thanks for checking out my page and listening the noise I´ve been doing for the past 50 and so years when I get musical.  I´m based in Bogotá, Colombia, and always open to do collabs.
