Beautiful piece. A number of great elements combine here, instruments, vocals and lyrics. Really convincing as a live sounding performance but maybe you're putting most of this together in your DAW step by step solo (that's my workflow)  which makes it even more compelling to me. Regardless, powerful musical arrangement and storytelling. Great work. I love it!

This is a good song great production. Keep up the nice work.

The guitars are so great on this, really liquid, and rise up unexpectedly... like ghosts! 😄

Puppy Love

Hope Is Everything

Lyrics:

Cold silence cuts in
Thin layers of  hope to withstand the relentless storm.
Deep spiraling fear
Unraveling seams in Orwelian need for more.

Internalize enlightened verses' tones
Inside this startling haze of trying times.
Romanticized resounding Prozac brings to life 
The smoldering thoughts to go on.

Light fades with the last attempts to predict the past 
Inside this place that you used to call home.

In hope for last transform
Extending the wings to the fire.
This soothing light for the lost
Deceiving me, burning me

Cold

Are we all guilty of contributing to global pollution?

Lyrics
Guilty, a crime we  all commit, without thinking  
Poison, the sea, the land, our selves, nowhere to hide

Guilty, as charged, I know I played  my  part 

Throw away, don't do it
Throw away
Throw away, don't do it
Throw away
Don't do it

Drifting, shadows lost and cold, trapped in a  heart of 
Poison, the waves pass round and round, nowhere to hide

Guilty as Charged

I wrote, arranged, produced, mixed, and performed Through it All, with backing vocals from my friend Brian Matteson, it's an anthem of resilience—soaring melodies, emotional depth, and a message of hope. For anyone facing storms, this is a reminder to rise, push forward, and never give up.

[Verse 1]

Lost and alone
Dark closes in
Hides the light from me
Fear weighs me down
Captures my thoughts
Sets my demons free

[Pre-Chorus]

As the rain is pouring down
I hear you cry my name
As I stumble at the edge
You pull me back again

[Chorus]

Through my fear and doubt
You could have cast me out
But thorough it all
You're right beside me
Here in this pouring rain
I'll stand
'cause my time is in your hands
thorough it all
You're right beside me

[Verse 2]

Here in the night
You search for me
as I turn away
Still reaching out
Calling me home
as you light way

[Pre-Chorus]

As the light comes rushing in
I rise to see your face
Darkness starts to fall away
As you pull me from this place

[Repeat Chorus]

[Verse 3]

Safe in your arms
You are my strength
You are my everything
Home, Finally home
No longer lost
You are the song I sing

[Repeat Pre-Chorus]

[Repeat Chorus}

Hi, if you can, please add me, trying to build my network, I would love it

Thoughts of You of Me

Baby Don’t Cry

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 ...
