She starts to dance
As the music plays
This beautiful girl on the dance floor 
Is glancing my way

She looks so good
With her moves so fine
Twisting and turning the night away 
I wish she were mine

Oh won’t you dance with me 
Oh won’t you dance with me 
My whole life through
I’ve wanted to dance
With someone like you

I start to move
To a beautiful song
I shuffle my feet on the dance floor 
As she leads me on

A touch of the hand
We begin to sway
And moving her body so close to mine 
I hear her say

Oh won’t you dance with me 
Oh won’t you dance with me 
My whole life through
I’ve wanted to dance
With someone like you

Volt5000 (@volt5000 and @mgxloop) and I are happy to present here on SC the 1st track, "Day by Day 10", of our new collaborative album "Day by Day" we shall be working on in the next month or two. Our idea is this time to go more into higher tempo, modern synth sounds and rich rhythms, in a genre or style we could preliminarily outline as symphonic electro house or melodic progressive techno. What is typical of our collaborations so far, and will perhaps remain so, is that we insert between the high tempo parts of a composition a lyrical detour of an ambient or slow nature. Volt5000 suggested that we aim at 10 tracks, present them with the same simple artwork cover, but in differing colours, and call them all "Day by Day", with a number decreasing from 10 to 1 (or 0? - we shall see) in reverse order, and I immediately liked this. 

The track was created in collaboration on 27 and 28 December 2021 (initial mix and recording in GarageBand and Logic Pro X by Alex M) and 5 May 2022 (subsequent additions and final mix and recording in MAGIX by Volt5000), and posted here on SoundCloud on 8 May 2022 (by Alex M).

The artwork cover for the track (and all that will follow) uses a conceptual idea of Volt5000 of 6 May 2022, implemented by Alex M (in PowerPoint) on 7 May 2022, then cropped and annotated with text by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 7 May 2022 - in coordination and agreement with Volt5000.

Thank you, Volt5000, for our inspired and spontaneous collaborations - more than two years now!

Duration: 5:48 minutes

カスミソウ　草のヒアデス　プレアデス
星の配置の奥に遺影（かお）あり

Gypsophila elegans is in full bloom.
Like the star clusters of the Hyades and Pleiades.
Flowers cluster like stars, and behind them is a portrait photo of a deceased person.

VERTRÄUMTE NACHT

Piano Concerto No.10 (iii) Op.50

I have always admired music, of diverse styles. Like most of us, I have tried learning to play a few instruments at a basic level in my teenage. But it is only now, in the 21st century, that modern software allows anyone to fool around being the composer, the designer of a whole composition, simpler or more complex, organising together the parts of the various instruments - and to hear the results of this experimentation or inspiration instantly! That is how I have recently begun enjoying the distraction of attempts at composing during my leisure, discovering an amazing dimension of life, and art, perhaps the most intangible, heightening and hypnotising one, and the closest to the soul... (21 August 2017) ... Forgot to mention: music is for sharing - that's why we are all here! (4 September 2017)
