This is a collection of songs that I have to hear again from talented musical artists here on soundcloud.

Great Music From Talented artists on SoundCloud

A song written by a good friend of mine. He asked me to sing it as he needed to distance himself from it.  

Hello Brother (wot do you see)

I've started posting a few tracks that feature isolated instruments on previously uploaded songs, just for fun. On this one, I've done a bit of a short remix to highlight the nasty harmonica solo at the end of one of my fave songs I collaborated on with the charming & talented Eclectic Collective gang. It was the first time I'd tried playing that style with the heavy echo/reverb effect, and I was surprised how it turned out. 
Here's a link to the original full song, featuring wicked solo turns by several members of the group:

A Brush With Death (BLUES HARP SOLO)

Happy new year with 2025-
This track is the first of my new style of music-I hope you like it

Its my new beginning

Lyrics and Vocals by me
Music made in Garageband
(I added some echo on my main voice for more effect)
A simple and a little weird song about self doubt, and finding the power :)

Lyrics:

Please, don't say I'm weak
That I am small
That I will never be able to climb up
and reach the top
That I will always be the one
Lying on the ground, looking up....

Chorus
I'm gonna find my power
I will climb,I will fight
I'm gonna reach the top
I will climb ,I will fight
I'm gonna use my power
I will climb, I will fight
I'm gonna reach the top
I will climb, I will fight

Please, don't say I'm grey
That I'm invisible
and never will be able to be mixed
Or to be fixed
That I will always be the one
Left colorless, lying on the ground..

Chorus...

Chorus....

This song began as one of Joe's, lyrically centered songs, which he wrote and filled in with VST instruments. He came up with the lyrics by sharing ideas with fellow SoundCloud musician Michele Ansani.
   Knowing that Josh is a fan of his work, Joe offered this song to him in hopes that he'd share it with the rest of the band. Of course, Josh jumped at the opportunity to work on his song, and immediately shared it with the rest of the group. 
  Ken went to work first, adding his driving, excting drums. Josh was having a hard time coming up with a good bass line for it, until Ken suggested that he use the power of the 1/8 note to propel it. Tez was up next with his clever fills you hear throughout the first half of the song. Stephen came along right after and matched Tez's energy for the guitar fills in the second half of the song. 
  It was still missing a solo in the designated spot, though, so Mark stepped up with his innovative piano solo you hear in the middle. If it sounds a little mechanical, that's because he's using an arpeggiator to achieve the effect. We thought it sounded good in a song about AI, though. 
  Once all the parts were dialed in, and Joe had gotten all his vocals tuned up, we asked one of our resident pros, Stephen, to mix it for us. He did that and mastered it, too, expertly, as always.
  This is the first song we've ever done with Joe, and don't expect it to be the last. We all really enjoyed putting together, in no small part because Joe is such a competent, receptive, and gracious collaborator. We all hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it. 
Original lyrics by Joe Stroffolino (and Michele Ansani):
When I was thirteen I picked up my first guitar
it was my mother's, it only had one nylon string 
I tried to play it like a rock star
I learned to play the Coca-Cola jingle
So I could teach the world to sing
When I was fourteen, I put on six new strings
I learned to play Beatles, I learned a Bob Dylan song
I sounded out of tune but I tried to carry on
At fifteen I wrote my first original tune 
So bad it sounded like it might have been written by a baboon
When I was sixteen, I got a new guitar for my birthday
The metal strings sawed through my fingers 
But I continued to play
And the calluses formed and every day I learned a brand new chord
I was obsessed with that guitar and I never grew bored.
I wrote songs every day and most of them were a mess
But I believed that through hard work, I could achieve success
Malcom Gladwell wrote a book that said it takes ten thousand hours
To become and expert at your craft
But now all it takes is two commands and an enter
And in two minutes you have ten versions of the same damn new song,
You just have to choose the type
folk, rock, rap, pop, metal, jazz, trap or blues.
You don't even need to write the lyrics, 
your push a few buttons let the AI choose.
And people will think your songs are great even though you didn’t write or play a single note.
When I was 20, I did my first concert, it was time
it occurred in a village square
there were four cats all friends of mine
I was still using the plectrum and sometimes I got the chords wrong
at thirty I finally wrote what I thought was a decent song
It had a very well thought out structure
And a catchy vibe and beat
It was overly verbose but when I played it people tapped their feet
In my forties I stopped wasting my time
Work was more fun I was doing just fine

Say what's up @ AVTRLFE@gmail.com

I am a musician. Here are some of my early works in progress. I just purchased Reason 7 and I am in love with it! I am learning how to use the program effectively and still working on mastering my audio. I have a little ways to go but I am happy with what I have created so far. I am having a great time producing music. I am looking forward to getting the quality and creativity of my songs up to a professional level. Right now I'm just enjoying the playground of sound. I hope you enjoy Listening. Thanks everyone! Check out my YouTube channel. I made some videos for my songs. Just in case you get tired of looking at a sound wave. Just wondering but does anyone besides me have absolutely no idea what is going to happen whenever you sit down to make a song?
