Uplifting, Great vocals & Harmonies...Dig those prog drums...

I've had this song in my head all week. The verse is so unbelievably hooky, and that middle sections totally satisfies my hunger for clever chord transitions!

Love the groove in this one. I'm nodding my head the whole time!

Written in June 2021, this song reflects back to relationship transitions and the vulnerability these periods bring. Features Fender Stratocaster, Takamine acoustic guitar, Fender Jazz bass, Baldwin Grand Piano, Yamaha MOTIF, and drum samples. All instruments played by Ben.

Cancel The Apocalypse

You think you know fear....I know fear, you look afraid... I think I know... why

Walk on a knife's edge, blade grows warm
one thread holds fibers struggle
fragile membrane of our bubble
ego consumed in this struggle

The sun sets, light grows dim
one light shines, deep from within

You look afraid

Missiles pointed itchy finger trembles on the button 
hidden powers they treat us as their mutton 
breath eludes me as my lungs swell with tainted water
most days I can’t even say why I (fucking) bother

Their is work to be done
by the many and not the some

Cancel the Apocalypse
Cancel the Apocalypse

Fear is the mask, blankets our sight
how to conquer infinite might?
with wide eyes, pierce the disguise
lest we succumb to our homespun demise

Cure the mind, keep in time
sip from the cup, of the sublime

Missiles pointed itchy finger trembles on the button 
hidden powers treat us as their mutton 
breath eludes me as my lungs fill with tainted water
most days I can’t say why I (fucking) bother

There is work to be done
by the many and not the some

Cancel the Apocalypse
Cancel the Apocalypse

Life is a gift, make what you will
do not swallow, the tempting swill
be not concerned with personal gain
aspirations are all the same

Cancel the Apocalypse
Cancel the Apocalypse

Life is a gift, make what you will
do not swallow, the tempting swill
be not concerned with personal gain

Cancel the Apocalypse
Cancel the Apocalypse

Have you conquered your fear?
I do hope so

Cover of Jealous Guy by John Lennon

Came to think of this song as my Springer Spaniel "Rico" once again thrust himself between myself, my wife and my children just as I was trying to say hello after a short business trip. And that is what he is - a jealous guy. Think of this as being sung by him as he casually grabs a few love bites. Some "minor" changes to accommodate my vision for this song.

JEALOUS GUY 

I was dreaming of the past
And my heart was beating fast
I began to lose control
I began to lose control

I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

I was feeling insecure
You might not love me anymore
I was shivering inside
I was shivering inside

Oh, I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

I was trying to catch your eyes
Thought that you was trying to hide
I was swallowing my pain
I was swallowing my pain
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

NEW FEAR

Go Break A Leg

„Luft Flüstern“ oder „Flüsternde Winde“ ( 16.12.2022 ) 

Mich fasziniert immer wieder bei Spaziergängen die Geräusche des Windes.
Mal sind diese ganz zart flüsternd, säuseln an meinen Ohren vorbei.
Dann wieder kräftig und laut. Die Vögel sind still. 

Die Auen und Graslandschaften werden – so habe ich das Gefühl – in Form gebürstet.
Man hört nur den Wind. Was möchte er erzählen. Denke ich mir.
Ein starkes raunen fegt durch das Gestrüpp und die Bäume.
Der Wind ist rastlos und zieht um die ganze Welt.
Er durchstreift weite große Täler, große Wälder, Berge, Wüsten, und das Meer.
All das ist in dem Wind. Aufbrausend, stürmisch, aber manchmal auch sehr zart flüsternd.

Genau diesem Moment habe ich versucht mit dieser Komposition zu erspüren.
Klanglich nahbarer zu machen.

Einfach mal genau hinhören. Der Wind hat seine eigene Melodie und Klangfarbe.

Ja der Wind flüstert uns seine eigene Musik. Denn alles was er überfliegt und berührt Bäume, Sträucher, Gras, Steine Wasser und Sand, erzeugt einen eigenen Klang.

Vielen Dank für Eure Aufmerksamkeit.

"Air Whisper" or "Whispering Winds" ( 16.12.2022 )

I'm always fascinated by the sound of the wind on walks.
Sometimes these are very softly whispering, whispering past my ears.
Then strong and loud again. The birds are silent.

I have the feeling that the meadows and grasslands are being brushed into shape.
You only hear the wind. What does he want to tell? I think to myself.
A strong murmur sweeps through the undergrowth and the trees.
The wind is restless and moves around the world.
He roams wide great valleys, great forests, mountains, deserts, and the sea.
All of that is in the wind. Short-tempered, stormy, but sometimes also very softly whispering.

Exactly this moment I tried to feel with this composition.
To make it sound more approachable.

Just listen carefully. The wind has its own melody and timbre.

Yes, the wind whispers its own music to us. Because everything it flies over and touches trees, bushes, grass, stones, water and sand creates its own sound.


Thank you very much for your attention.

Soundscape Experiment #88

My 3rd composition, may'93, which I'm not going to record by myself, as I have it played by Punto Ártica (me breaking drums), recorded on a radio-cassette in a ware house (so its surrounding sound). Take care of amalgamated rhythms.

https://soundcloud.com/david-sinverg-enza :Guitar / Sergio:Vocals / Luis:Keyboard / Manuel:Songwriting/Drums/Harmonies

Mi composición nº 3 (mayo de 1993), única que por ahora no voy a grabar por mí mismo, ya que la tengo interpretada por Punto Ártica (yo de rompeparches), grabada con radio-cassette en un almacén, de ahí el sonido "envolvente". Varias partes diferenciadas, una de ellas amalgama 2-2-3, ojo al ritmo.

Lyrics/Letra:

Deja que me quede un poco más;
no tengas miedo, no te voy a tocar.
No te preocupes, no te voy a besar,
pero déjame estar un poco más.

No hay nada de malo en charlar,
no pasa nada por quedar.

Salir a tomar café, no hay nada de malo,
salir a dar una vuelta, no hay nada de malo en charlar.

Charlar.....

Si me gusta estar contigo, a ellos ¿qué les importa?
Si son todos gilipollas, a nosotros ¿qué más da?

Si me gusta estar contigo, y a ti también te gusta,
si son todos gilipollas, a nosotros ¿qué más da?

Qué más da (Deja que me quede)
