You have a real talent keep making music bro

hmmm, that is good, "Zeus sleeping" Ahh song, that was so good keep up!

A very gentle and moving composition, indeed. Great job on the attention to detail!

Amazing, great development and atmosphere , deeply relaxing - thank you and I am waiting for more :)

A playlist of the wondrous and uplifting kind ...

Enchanting

lyrics-

i'll sit and wait up here, i like to watch the waves disappear
they draw the sand and the shells appear
who bear colors and scars that painted their years
is it the light from the bay, a certain beauty that makes us make mistakes
i just hope i find you here, or at least we find love somewhere

hold tight, hold tight to my hand
a night like this might be our last stand
this place is hard to find, and i want to be left behind

what do you want to do, do you want to go
i plan to stay and i can't be swayed
i love the view, it's up to you
this place makes the perfect home
together & alone

it's too loud to go back, i'd much rather wait right here
i like the lights of the shoreline and the sound from the pier
there's a path to somewhere new, but i've never wanted to go too far
i'm sure there's life and love to find, but i feel this place in my heart

hold tight, hold tight to my hand
a night like this might be our last stand
this place is hard to find, and i want to be left behind

what do you want to do, do you want to go
i plan to stay and i can't be swayed
i love the view, it's up to you
this place makes the perfect home
together & alone

take me home (alone)

Pier

This music was inspired by the recent premiere and CANNES 2023 OFFICIAL SELECTION:  CALIGULA: THE ULTIMATE CUT.  You can see the film September 24th at Fantastic Fest in Austin, TX and late September at Beyond Fest in Los Angeles, CA.

While this track is not in the movie, the instrumentation, sound palette and feel is directly inspired by the film.  

I composed the film score with a hybrid palette in mind, using organic instruments, percussion as well as found sound, audio manipulation and vintage analog synthesizers.   I was posed with the question - what would the score sound like if they composed it in 1979-1980 using the above sound palette with modern-listener and viewer sensibilities?

Absolute Power Corrupts

Storms raging, oceans rising - keep ignoring this shaking I feel

Mixed and Mastered by Woods Studio February 2024

Disconnected in G sharp

7 o'clock in the morning with an ocean of tears
we should have been pretty, but reality mourned
shadows growing on the back of the door

Words hurled like daggers projecting fears
shredding eachother into million pieces
Scars of misunderstanding formed

A silent tension camouflaged a deadly minefield
Polluting our judgements of right and wrong
even the time feared to move along

still 7 o'clock hope fled the dreaded battlefield
we're craving for love, but affection is gone
we're stuck in this place for far too long

so what's the point of our constant fight
we got burned so many times
so much pressure, so much anger
we shouldn't be allowed
so farewell to the love we knew,
And the time has come to face our crimes
let me fade away
let me be another face in the crowd

severly damaged, i need a place to retreat
searching for silence to ease and calm down
figuring out why my mind has doubts

strong fears and worries of being incomplete
are drowning my soul in a sea of sadness
but is our love worth so many downs

finally found the strength to mend my heart's mistake
I broke the chain that kept my mind in minor
putting my scattered pieces back together

draining my sea of sadness before it's too late
having loved, but now we're done
it's okay to let go of each other

so what's the point of our constant fight
we got burned so many times
so much pressure, so much anger
we shouldn't be allowed
so farewell to the love we knew,
And the time has come to face our crimes
let me fade away
let me be another face in the crowd


Another Face In The Crowd (piano version)

I've got some thoughts, I think they're right
But without proof, I can't sleep tight
In a world of concepts, lost and alone
Chasing truth, needing facts to be shown

I need proof! Show the way
I need proof! Clear as day
I need proof!
Show me the proof!

You say this and that, but can we be sure?
Words without proof, just echo and soar
In the empty chatter, doubts start to show
Give me foundation, a logic to grow

I need proof! No more lies
I need proof! Truth in my eyes
I need proof!
Show me the proof!

In the margins of a book, a riddle was sown
Fermat's last theorem, a mystery unknown
Centuries passed by, with minds put to test
Until Andrew Wiles resolved the quest

I need proof! Show the way
I need proof! Clear as day
I need proof!
Show me the proof!

Seeking answers, day by day,
Facts and figures, lead the way.
Every question, we pursue,
Finding clarity, in the new.
Truth discovered, old and new,
Never stopping, I need proof.
Show me the proof!

I Need Proof

This is a genuine Pop song with a few extra elements, like 'bombast' strings and such ... Enjoy!

I had the great pleasure to musically illustrate a new "adventure" from Annie.

This track will guide you through an ancient technique which helps to retrieve and cultivate empowerment and magnetism.

@APi_ZZ has quite brilliantly used specific sound frequencies in the music which support this practice. He found that the resonance of my drumming was of the frequency 109 Hz, close to the 108 Hz which is the sound tuning used to heal the sacral chakra. So he fine-tuned the drumming frequencies to that exact 108 Hz.

He then put the whole thing to music, using flute and Tibetan sound bowls attuned to the frequency of 432 Hz. He also added a bowl drone sound (again at 432 Hz), augmented by bells chiming in deeply associated frequencies of (again) 108 Hz, 162 Hz, and 243 Hz and a second bowl at 364.5 Hz. These frequencies relate to the sacral, solar, heart and throat chakras.

Power - a guided practice

Annie came up with the story -- eh, THE story -- see her entry: 
https://soundcloud.com/annie-dieu-le-veut/hero-with-a-thousand-faces
I had the "duty", but certainly mainly the pleasure to figure illustrative music for that. Here is our result.

Hero

Ontogeny is an evocative piece from the album LIFE, weaving the complex and vibrant threads of jazz fusion into a story of survival, freedom, and growth. At its core, a driving bebop double bass sets a fierce, rhythmic foundation, symbolizing the unyielding pulse of life. Over it, fast, intricate guitar solos rise and fall, their fluidity representing the unpredictable twists of evolution, pushing boundaries as they soar beyond the familiar. As the composition reaches its apogee, a lush string section enters, embodying unity and resilience, underscoring the universal fight to preserve life and its endless potential to evolve - not just on Earth, but across the universe.

Over at Mix Challenge (https://mix-challenge.com/) they run the Songwriting Competition for September 2024; the theme is "Mental Health Awareness Month". Music is said to have a supportive effect when positively dealing with this matter. My contribution tries to do so with this softly chiming, meditative track.
UPDATE 09-21: Track got replaced by a slightly remixed version.

Being musician and artist "since ages", the last two decades and all the developments in digital music broadened my interests and activities in doing music actively and passively. Not being shy of any genre (OK, leave off some Punk and Extreme Metal derivates) I engage in composing, arranging, mixing and collaborating. 

Oh, and I do all my artwork and designs as well. And as you may notice I regard AI as a friendly helper.

Have a few looks & listens into my repertoire and eventually gain some insights. I'm always open for collabs if the the interests match ...
