each time I go back to this track, it makes thing of the beginning  of Start Trek TNG <3 <3

Feels like a generative piece focussed on desolation, isolation... quite an affecting melody and with a cavernous (sensitive production values) - Eno might be proud of this.

Hi Andrei! Very thought-provoking presence! Great depiction of endless pondering. Brain activity in lock-down mode. It seems like the questions that flood the mind will never cease. >>

That turned out very well with the fantastic vocals from Rachel. It was really hard which of the brilliant stems to drop.

======= Lyrics =======

One last story got a hold on me
She said I won’t be told
Bout how mine would unfold
And I’m left strumming on to seek

Strangers in the night
are left running out of sight but there’s
the clues in avenues slashing through the mountains
bare
their beading’s cold as ice
but I see through their shells
im no longer
Wandering lost

One good tune can catch your from the dark
Immersive words can last
The burdens from the past
Can help in fighting back your fears

Echo, éco, écosystème

On avait tous appris
Quand on était petits
Qu’la chaine alimentaire
C’est l’équilibre sur terre
Et qu’il faut respecter
Les ressources la santé
De notre mère nature
Pour notre vie future

Echo, éco, écologie

C’était un joli mot
Qui rimait avec bio

On en fera quelque chose de celui-là
Si les petits atomes ne le mangent pas


Echo, écho, économie

Et puis on a vieilli
C’est là qu’on nous a dit
Qu’au nom du Saint Progrès
Fallait tirer un trait
Sur nos rêves de gamin
Et s’lever tôt le matin
Faire tourner les turbines
Pour booster la machine

Et c’est ce vilain mot
Qui engendre tous nos maux

Mais on n’en fera rien de celui-là
Quand le gros atome nous mangera

frenglish translation
Echo, eco, ecosystem

We had all learned
When we were little
That the food chain
Is the balance on earth
And that must be respected
Health and resources
From our mother nature
For our future life

Echo, eco, ecology

It was a nice word
Who rhymed with organic

We'll make something out of it
If the little atoms don't eat it


Echo, echo, economy

And then we grew old
This is where we were told
In the name of Holy Progress
To draw a line
On our childhood dreams
And get up early in the morning
Spin the turbines
To boost the machine

And it's that bad word
Who engenders all our pains

But we won't do anything with that
When the big atom will eat us

Les Introspections by Thuyonic is perfect.  I love it!
This cover is dreamlike by comparison.
After all, a cover should be different to the original, no?
I hope that my version will lead you into the crystal clarity of Thuyonic’s magnificent original track.

Wood anemones [naviarhaiku490]

Its been a few months since i've posted new music on sound-cloud. 
I have lots of rough ideas that are incomplete. I sift through them often and occasionally find a good fit.
This is an instrumental piece that has a similar relaxed vibe to another tune i released called "Sunday" and "Sunday storyboard" featuring  OCA

Recorded between - July - Sept 2020

Tapestry

The project was created in collaboration with Karin Tarabochia @augenmerk  and me in 2016. We divided Karin's beautiful poem "Aufbruch" into six parts, which I was allowed to edit music and sounds. Lets go ⇢

Aufbruch
1
Aufbruch! Was war, fällt ab. Knöpf’ meinen Kragen auf.
 Zieh’ die Weste aus, an der noch Land hängt. Warte ab.  
Was klammert, saugt, im Zaum hält, bröckelt und springt. 
Mein Schneckenloch, mein Honigfuß, mein Schritt ins Leere  
und endlich Fall, Bruch, Sturz … und Landen!

Departure. What was, falls off. Unbutton my collar.
Take off the vest with land still hanging on it. Wait.
What clings, sucks, bridles, (now) crumbles and cracks.
My snail hole, my honey foot, my step into the void …
And finally fall, break, plunge ... and landing!

2
Neubeginn verschieben, unendlich lang?
 Das Ende aufzäumen und den Anfang aufspüren? 
Erfüllung vorwegnehmen?

Postpone a new beginning, infinitely long?
Bridling the end and tracking down the beginning?
Anticipate fulfillment?

3
Schnipp’ die Leine durch, lass' Haus und Hof 
und was ich schuf, rollt durch den Kopf. 
Dreh' mich aus dem Schleiertanz.
Spann' meinem Wagen andere Pferde –  
höher geht’s und weiter!
Sonnenfahrt!  Der Täuschung abschwören - 
Wütend platzt mein Innerstes und gibt frei: 
Anemone, Traumpferd, das ein Holzbein schwingt.
 Am goldenen Wagen im Sturmwind treiben –  
den Füßen fehlt Boden, den Händen fehl'n Sprossen. 
Nichts da, nur Lederhaut an Sohlen und Schwielen.

Snap the leash, leave house and yard
and what I created rolls through my head.
Turn me out of the veil dance.
Bring other horses to my carriage -
Higher it goes and further! Sun trip!
Renounce deception -
Enraged my innermost bursts and releases:
anemone, dream horse swinging a wooden leg.
Floating on the golden chariot in the storm,
the feet are missing ground, the hands are missing rungs,
nothing there, just leather skin on the soles and calluses.

4
Träume meinen Flusslauf vom Anfang zum Ende
und schwimme zurück, dorthin wo ich bin.  
Fisch sein! Springen! Am Ufer lachen sie
und manchmal hält das Fischmaul die Trommel an  
und hört Sirenen singen.

Dream my river from the beginning to the end
and swim back to where I am.
Being fish. Leaping. On the bank they laugh.
Sometimes the fish's mouth stops the drum,
hears sirens singing.

5
Wir müssen diesen Platz verlassen,
so schnell wie möglich unsern Kopf vergessen,
 der benommen Geschichten schwatzt, vergisst.  
An Scheiben rinnen Tränen. 
Was befürchtet war, wird wahr, vergeht.  
Am Weg besteht, was ist.

Mich nicht messen an anderen, mich nicht missen! 
Nicht verkaufen, dem Anderssein weglaufen!  
Mich am Fluss einfinden, wer ich war, wer ich bin,
im Zwischenraum die Zwischenfrau. 
Den Mädchentraum beenden,
den Zeitraum größer drehen und kleiner,
 Schritte sehen, die fest am Boden.
Ich war weg und komme wieder.

We have to leave this place,
as soon as possible forget our head
who gossips stupid stories and forgets.
Tears run down the panes.
What was feared will come true and pass.
On the way persists what is.

Not compete with others, not miss me,
not sell myself nor run away from being different.
Find myself by the river, who I was, who I am,
in the interspace the interwomen.
End the girl's dream, turn the period bigger and smaller,
see footsteps firmly on the ground.
I was gone and I'll be back.

6
Lass’ mich nicht hängen und bis zum letzten Tag warten, 
bis ich mein Blut abgebe und mein Gesicht sich ins Tuch drückt.
Nicht bücken und suchen, zwischen Spuren verfluchen. 
Das Ziel sehen nahe bei mir:  Ich bin Traube, ich bin Straße, ich bin Mensch.

Not leave me hanging, waiting until the last day,
until I give up my blood and press my face into the cloth.
Not bend down and search, curse between tracks.
See the goal close to me: I am grape, I am street, I'm human.

Thinking
