Restless Soul   

Spent such a long time Searching, you never knew what you were searching for.
Spent such a long time working, you never knew who you were working for.

Spent such a long time dreaming, you never knew what you could wake up to.
Spent such a long time thinking, you could not feel what was real to you.

A mind that has to know, you are a restless soul.
Your blind to its control,   you are a restless soul.

Spent such a long time drifting, you never knew you were so close to shore.
Spent such a long time listening, to what you could not hear anymore.

A mind that has to know, you are a restless soul.
Your blind to its control,  you are a restless soul.

(A.Hallam September 2013)

Restless Soul

A partial remake of my earlier rearrangement of Frédéric Chopin's Revolutionary Etude, Op. 10 No. 12. 

A Sunday excercise where I laid down a bass part with the Jazz Bass Ultra on top of my earlier rearrangement. I played the electric piano part originally 2.5 years ago as midi in several takes. Also some midi note corrections and quantizations were made back then especially since the changing of the rhythm turned out to be more difficult for the left hand than I expected.. I'm not a pro bassist but it sure was fun playing this! I also didn't want the bass to steal all the attention from the keyboard part:)

I also made a short video of this:

This is a piano piece with cello arrangements. A peaceful look into nostalgia and memories, composed from the wonderful island of Mallorca. Greetings to all of you who have been following me for years. 

Where we used to be

Arizona covboy Rides far

I have been hearing so much AI music lately on SoundCloud and these  thoughts have been percolating with me for a while and finally they coalesced into a song. (created without the use of AI).

You got tired of struggling so hard to write a great original song
And then this amazing newfangled technology came along
Now you’re using AI to create music, and it’s a much easier process
And you’re convinced you found the ticket to achieving great success.
You tell yourself you’re a great artist because prompting takes a lot of skill
But deep down you know the AI did most of the work and you swallow the bitter pill
People complement you on your guitar playing and they tell you your voice sounds great
It makes you feel so good but you don’t ever set them straight
Those classic rockers used to write 10 or 12 good songs every couple of years
Now you’re posting two or three songs a day and hoping for a bunch of cheers
You’re rolling the musical dice, hoping you’ll come up with a catchy viral hit 
But there’s so much music flooding the internet that no one gives a shit
You tell yourself you’re a great artist because prompting takes a lot of skill
But deep down you know the AI did most of the work and you swallow the bitter pill
People complement you on your guitar playing and they tell you your voice sounds great, it makes you feel so good but you don’t ever set them straight
Some people believe we’re living in simulation and none of this is real
We’re just digital creations in a computer with the ability to feel
But even if that’s not the case, we’re quickly, heading to a place where no one’s going to be able to tell the difference.
You used strum your guitar, trying to capture lightning in a bottle and the songs that emerged came from you.
And now the songs you write with AI, what they’re saying, you don’t have a clue.
Music used to feel therapeutic, it was a window on your soul that you could share.
But now something feels missing because your songs no longer lay your heart bare.

Prompting Takes A Lot Of Skill

Meditation Vibration

This is from my EP SUPERNOVA. 123 BPM. 3m59s. The main genres are Alternative rock / Indie rock / J-ROCK. The moods are Energetic / Catchy / Groovy. I wrote this rock 'n' roll song alone when I was 18 and recorded it now alone in my room with a guitar, bass, mic and PC. With Oasis reunion, I decided to record this song. This is a congratulations to Oasis and their fans on the reunion. Everything (including cover art and MV) by myself. Loud guitar, beautiful melody and captivating vocals are the selling points.

Lyrics : (Ha)

You walk in pain
I can't see you
You walk in pain
I can't see you

You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
Just find the feeling
And tell me truth

You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
Just find the feeling
And tell me truth

You walk in rain
I can't see you
You walk in rain
I can't see you

You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
Just find the feeling
And tell me truth

You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
Just find the feeling
And tell me truth

Wooo Wooo
La La La La La La La
Wooo Wooo
La La La La La La La
Huuu Wooo Wooo
Huuu Wooo Wooo

You walk in vain
I want to see you
You walk in vain
I want to see you

You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
Just find the feeling
And tell me truth

You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
You are the supernova
Just find the feeling
And tell me truth

Just find the feeling
And tell me truth

Just find the feeling
And tell me truth

                   Luminous Star

Together We gazed upon a starlit sky,
Contemplating the rest of our lives.
Never could i have imagined this night,
All that was wrong in that moment was right.

Luminous Star You travel so Far.
Caught by your light, changing my plight.

Together we saw our star did fall,
Contemplated a wish for us all.
Never could i imagine this sight.
All that was wrong in that moment was right.

Luminous Star, you travel so far.
Caught by your light, changing my plight.
