WHAT'S IN YOU
Written, Performed, Produced & Mastered

IT'S ALL THE COIN YOU'VE GOT
AND ALL THE LOVING IN ONE HAND
THERE'S A CHANCE TO TAKE THE LOT
UNTILL YOU FIND THE KEY, IT TURNS TO SAND

IF I COULD UNFOLD THIS MYSTERY
THE OLD MAN SAID NOTHING COMES FOR FREE
IT COULD TAKE YOU LIFE, WITH WHAT YOU CHOOSE
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO

WHAT'S IN YOU

SOMEDAY YOU'LL WIN A TRICK IN A HAT
YOU BETTER WISH REEL HARD, IN ONE HAND
IS ALL THE TRUTH TO MUCH
MAY'BE  IT'S ALL, IN TWO HANDS

I GUESS YOU'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT IS TRUE
YOU'VE LOST THE BIGGEST PART OF YOU
IT COULD TAKE YOUR LIFE, WITH WHAT YOU CHOOSE
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO

WHAT'S IN YOU
(break)
IF I COULD UNFOLD THIS MYSTERY
THE OLD MAN SAID NOTHING COMES FOR FREE
IT COULD TAKE YOU LIFE, WITH WHAT YOU CHOOSE
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO

The Mysterious Decibel - Facing Fears

Lyrics, instrumental, Vocals, Sounds, mix, song structure - The Mysterious Decibel

Vocals mastered by: Mark McClellan

Lyrics:

I'm staring, My eyes tearing through the night as I rest my head
Trying to forget what reveals itself in the light above my bed

Face the spider parallel on the ceiling
To maybe change my perception of feeling
Maybe if i stare so long
it'll become so numb
just trying to overcome
Might not need a chase of rum
Or even a hit to make me dumb

The dreaded fear that's above my head
Like the cover of a book that is barely read
Every eye, every leg, It's own demon
Should I flush it all away with the spray of my semen?

Just close your eyes
Move on closer
Open wide
Take a bite
Accept the sin
swallow it down
Take the monsters in
And turn them around

Facing Fears

Troubled Times

13 birds circling about a quarter mile high in the sky, I’ve never seen so many birds circling so high, there are no robots in sight.  He’s not too friendly but he’s got a heart of gold, at a young age he fell in love with falling in love.  I’ll be  the first to break the silence, the silence that’s been kept as long as it’s taken the river to carve the canyon, the canyon between you and me.  You bought a black and white color chart with blood money, I’m talk-in money from the blood bank.  Driving up a one way road, cursing at everyone as you go, trees look like broccoli in a miniature world.  And now it’s five o’clock Thursday afternoon and Friday’s in the air.

Don't Be A Heart Breaker

Lyrics-

I'm ready to crawl again. I keep on falling on my head.
And in this sea I'll drown if I can't keep myself from falling down.
When I'm ready to stand again I will never have to pretend
I'm falling down, I'm falling down

When I'm ready to call  your name and get myself back up again
From falling down, from falling down, falling down again

Now I'm ready to walk a mile, slip and fall but I still smile
While falling down Falling down

Now I'm ready to rearrange and won't look back to make the change from falling down, falling down again

Falling Down

Look Up

Heavenly Steps (2023) Anthology CD2 Track 18

Truly loved this piece composed by http://soundcloud.com/stephan-beneking and thought I'd give it a try and play myself :) Though, it was rather short and I felt like I want to make it a little bit longer so I took the liberty of improvising on the theme.

Petit reve bizarre #14 by Stephan Beneking - Variation on the theme by Milana

There was a long story behind this cover :) Steve offered to sing it together about a month ago but then lots of stuff happened, bad and good, and finally here is the result of hard work of four people :)
Thank you Steve for offering this and singing it with me!
Thank you Dave for adding your magical sax and redoing my dilettantish bass line :))
... well, thank you Arty for mixing it together :P

I was asked by Chris (@nu-ionmusic) if I can sing this song for him about a week ago but because of the accident with my son I didn't really have much time for collaborations. So, today I got some time to sing some collabs but  saw a lovely version sung by @emma-shanley :). I asked Chris if he still wants me to sing another version of the same song and got his approval. So here it is, something unusual for me :)

Long goodbye - nu-ionmusic (music, lyrics), Milana (vocal)

Milana's playing on this is just so good ... and her husband Arty did a great job on the mixing front.

Bridge Over Troubled Water (Milana Zilnik piano: Simon & Garfunkel cover)

When Andreas (http://soundcloud.com/Shoemansky) wrote me and asked if I am open for a collaboration it was like a big "wow" cause I'm a huge fan of his songs! So we chose the motif of one of my piano improvisations for the start (http://soundcloud.com/milanazilnik/on-the-other-side-milana) and used the words I wrote myself when I was thinking to turn that impro into a song. And here is the result :)

-----------
You lay and wonder, if it is the end, 
And if there is a way  to escape this ending... 
Your tried your best, you made your final stand... 
An empty heart can't deal with no more pain!

Stop the scene, I want a ticket out. 
It makes no sense to keep this engine going... 
You bleed and scream and fill yourself with doubt, 
Your self defense is falling, falling.

On the other side.... on the other side there is hope, there is light..
Can we make it?

I search the ruins for survivals left. 
The grief is burning, but the fear is freezing. 
I'm scared to death to meet the living dead.
These dead are us, if we're afraid of living.

Stop the scene, I want a ticket out. 
It makes no sense to keep this engine going... 
You bleed and scream and fill yourself with doubt, 
Your self defense is falling, falling.

Burn this place, it can be saved by light. 
I rip and crash, until my hands are bleeding. 
If words were blades then I could win this fight, 
But all that's left in me is leaving, leaving...

Stop the scene, I want a ticket out. 
It makes no sense to keep this engine going... 
You bleed and scream and fill yourself with doubt, 
Your self defense is falling, falling.

Is it the end - Milana (lyrics, vox, piano), Shoemansky (vox, arrangement, prod.)

DUTCH LYRICS

ALS IK JOU KEN 
Als ik jou ken, echt goed ken 
Zou je ooit weggaan? 
Had jij die wens? 

Had ik jou minder lief, dan zou moeten 
Waar zou je't zoeken? 
Wat kon ik doen?

Ik voer over grote oceanen 
Ik bedwong de hoogste berg 
En ik bracht dan uit de diepste zee 
Die zwarte parel mee 
Alleen voor jou 
om wie je bent 
als ik je ken

Als je mij kent, echt goed kent 
Zou ik ooit weggaan? 
Had ik die wens?

Had je mij minder lief, dan zou moeten 
Waar zou'k het zoeken? 
Wat kon jij doen?

We bevoeren grote oceanen 
We bedwongen elke berg 
En we brachten uit de diepste zee 
Die zwarte parel mee 
alleen voor jou 
om wie je bent 
als ik je ken 

LITERAL TRANSLATION (out of Dutch)

IF I KNOW YOU 
If I know you, really know 
Would you ever leave? 
Could you wish for this? 
  
If i loved you less, than I should 
Where would you be looking? 
What could I do?

I could navigate large oceans 
I could conquer the highest mountain 
And I brought then out of the deepest sea 
That black pearl 
Only for you 
for who you are 
if I know you

If you know me, really know 
Would I ever leave? 
Could i wish for this?

Did you love me less, than you should 
Where would i be looking? 
What could you do?

We could navigate large oceans 
We could conquer every mountain 
And we brought out the deepest sea 
That black pearl 
only for you 
for who you are 
if I know you

Playing piano since I was four and studied in a musical school for ten years. Though, I always felt that playing by notes and singing in a choir is not enough to become a musician. I needed to be able to play anything I want by ear so, by starting improvising, I've found my own style of playing. When I teach children to play piano or sing, I offer them improvisation right from the beginning. I wish I was taught that way, since until my mid-30s I had hard times to relax and believe in my ability to create my own music. Twelve years ago my husband (@arty-sandler) finally convinced me to record some of my improvisations and we opened this account on SoundCloud - it happened in July, 2012.

You won't find a single particular genre on my cloud: my musical tastes are rather eclectic. Jazz and soft rock are my favorites but I also play blues, classical, folk, middle-eastern, New Age, ambient and others. Piano and vocal are my main instruments but together with my husband we also experiment a lot with different arrangements and orchestrations. 

When we started uploading our music to SoundCloud back in 2012, it was first shy attempts to record my improvisations straight from a keyboard. Many things have evolved since then. Over the years we've grown into a professional recording and composing studio, with a conservatory grand piano in an acoustically treated room and a bunch of microphones and other recording equipment. We scored a few documentaries, short films and animations. This year my orchestral and piano solo works were performed by Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra for Bryan Arias’s ballet show based on “The Little Prince” story. We've published three books with my original scores for solo piano and released twenty original full-length albums (solo piano, multi-instrumental and original songs in various genres) and numerous singles that have been streamed over 70 million times across multiple platforms.

I am glad you stepped by into my musical world and appreciate your comments and following me.
