Shock the Algorithm

After some Soundcloud trouble we are finally back with a new song.
Enjoy.

Obsessive torment

Had it all, but have let it fall
ruined everything that was my joy
-- i've lost my destiny
dark thoughts that plague my mind
the darkness that conceals my life
-- the pain is consuming me
no more choice, it's all my fault
last thing to do is end my life
--leave those ive loved behind

Give it up, don't look back
says the voice inside your head
take no stance just forget
make it end without regret

lying there bleeding on the floor
last memorys, some final thoughts
blinding light, finally at peace
fucked up again, wide awake

--the blade cuts/the blade cuts/the blade cuts
through the veins

lying there bleeding on the floor
last memorys, some final thoughts
blinding light, finally at peace
fucked up again, wide awake

can't do anything right,
not even capable of controll over my mind
can't do everything right,
not even capable to take my own life

Obsessive Torment

can't do anything right,
not even capable of controll over my mind

want to end this life
so many times ive tried 
lost count of the selfinflicted scars
Hope i wake up dead
delivered of this torment
Set me free, release me from this agony
i am a slave to my own misery

i want to hurt you, like you did me
i deserve you, but you wont fucking see
now i will haunt you in your dreams
I will do it, Slit my wrists!!! you will see!!! 
you will suffer like me!!!

thoughts are like a broken record
think about you every second
I can't bear to deal with your loss
repeating the memorys over and over
Mental overload, does not recover
to much pain from the past
Words locked up remain unspoken
this is my time to be a token
disgusted that we are apart

obsessive torment

A dark grey cloud, lit by bright lightning
Hailstorm approaches 
Storm drives icy wind into the face
Too late to return

Grab stick and rifle rapidly
Heavy hail hammers down 
And soon spurred to gallop
To reach the wizards ostracized shelter

THYRSCHENBLUT --- 4/6 --- Eisfall

we read nursery rhymes to our kids every night..then we all go to sleep and wake up and seem to forget the stories morals.
sometimes the solution to complicated problems is easier than not..just get up and help.
the dangers of virtual reality/social media are becoming obvious to me..we lose touch with each other and the world and so lose empathy and the capacity to help.it generates a false sense of security and distorts reality.

lyrics

one day a stormy wind blew in the 100 acre wood
it blew Yore's house to the ground
he stood all alone in the cold cold rain
losing all hope with no place to go

piglet was trapped in a raging flood in the 100 acre wood
he stood on some chairs to save himself
but with no one around he feared he would drown

but Winnie the Pooh knew what to do
without even counting to one or to two
he put down his honey pot, got off of his couch 
and went outside to help

now our neighbors are homeless they lie in the street
in the cold cold rain ,no place to go
losing all hope
the children outside have no food to eat
they are lost and afraid ,full of fear and of pain

you sit on your couch with your earphones on
with your eyes glued to a screen
you are lost down a rabbit hole waiting to have 
your dinner delivered to your door

if Winnie the Pooh knew what to do
then tell me why don't you???

you think all is well and you're safe on your couch
you have virtual reality to hide in
but everything's fine until it's not
you're not alone in the world
when they pound down your door cause they can't take anymore
the fault will be yours not theirs

so take off the ear phones
get up off the couch
and go outside to help

if Winnie the Pooh knew what to do and he is just a bear
why can't you

after all Winnie the Pooh is stuffed with fluff
tell me what are you made of??

oh pooh. where are you?(#@)

This upload is only the 'drums & sound effects' track, of the full song Cut 2: "The Chase" (movie/car chase version). Here's a link to that full version, with the description of the movie & car chase concept explained:
https://soundcloud.com/user-432503709/cut-2-the-chase-1

I'm going to upload 4 versions of this song:

1) The full 'movie/car chase' version (including story/concept)
https://soundcloud.com/user-432503709/cut-2-the-chase-1

2) the 'drums & sounds effects only' version (no music)
    (this track)

3) the 'music only' version (no sound effects)
    (upload pending)

4) the 'original' music only version (recorded around 1999 or 2000)
    (upload pending)

I thought some folks might find it interesting to see this thing deconstructed and evolving from original to now. maybe not, lol.

I strongly recommend listening with headphones to get the full panning effects. The image is a combo of AI generated and cut & paste from my photos.

All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve. Like, “hey Mark, your car chase idea really sucks”. 😜

Cut 2: "The Chase" (FX only) [*see description for story]

I'm very excited to introduce you to my track “No Time”! I'm still learning how to sing and working with vocals, definitely had a lot of fun with this one. And luckily I had enough time for it 😉.

Lyrics:
Once again too late.
I waste my precious time.
My eyelids start to close.
I’m far from my prime.
The sun sets low.
The world finds its rest.
The ticking grows louder.
Fear of missing, a relentless test.

No time,
(there is) no time.
No time,
(there is) no time.

I push it all before,
rarely fully awake.
Sleeping the whole day.
My time, slowly, at stake.
Don't ponder anymore.
Rise, embrace the day's light.
I imagine in my core,
there's more than just no time in sight.

No time,
(there is) no time.
No time,
(there is) no time.

No time.

No Time

lyrics:
Ramona? is this what u really wanna?
Is this the life you have always dreamed of?
Listen your heart and go on!

Ramona? you gotta fight for what u really wanna
maybe you're the new madona
a mother, an actor in "Lavapies"

You don't need to get scared, don't be afraid you're almost there
these bright lights, the diamonds on your dress

Forget the past and make it last, we are getting old you gotta move fast
the whole universe is almost on your feet

Music like snow. Falling softly, bringing silence.

I make cinematic music, centered around the piano. Often melancholic, but not without hope. Calm, but not without movement. I hope it gives you something.

My path to this kind of music wasn’t straightforward.
I quit piano lessons as a kid after just two months. Years later, I got into recording and collecting sounds. I also began capturing instruments with my modest setup. But there was one problem: I couldn’t actually play one myself. So I bought a keyboard and started taking piano lessons again. From then on I couldn't let go of music.

The music that always stayed with me was film music – fascinated by how it tells stories and how it adds depth to a moment. Over time, my own pieces became more narrative, more atmospheric. Until they became what I share with you today.

No Time
