Penty of must-hear but missed material in your gigantic catalog my friend. I've listened to this badass tune several times in my truck but have yet to repost. Today's the day :)

very nice work - your material is very easy to listen to

After a long hibernation, our hero slowly wakes up and finds the exit that leads to a new beginning ...
Now Paul Allen Dio is thinking: " I'm probably still dreaming, this isn't real ; I can't be the only survivor after the apocalypse ! "

It's an Addiction

Because of You
These things that I Do

Stick a Spike in My Vein
Leave the tracks here of a Train
Because I can't deal
With anything that Real

Because of You
These are the things that I Do
It's an addiction Baby
It's Not Your Fault

You know One Thing
This is for Sure
The Love I Feel
This thing is Real
It's because of You

You know my Pain
It's an Addiction
It's not your'e Fault Baby
That's one thing for Sure

If I hurt you Now 
It's not your Fault
It's an Addiction 
That's All

It's the shit that's running through My Veins
That's got me Down
In the bottom of the Drain

It's not your'e Fault
The tracks running down the middle of my Heart
It's not because of you
These things that I Do 
It's my own damned Fault
I can't live with it All

Yea, It's for Real

It's An Addiction

In to the light

Into The Light

Written by a former band mate , Chris Bennet @ 15 years old! He passed in 2014… this is performed and recorded by me, in honor of our true friendship and his amazing talents!

In The Fall

There has been so much tragedy, so many broken lives and hearts since the outset of the war in Ukraine. In the earliest days of the conflict, a Kiev family was brutally attacked whilst trying to flee the city; most, including Polina, did not survive. To reflect on one particular instance from the enormity of grief in Ukraine is, I sincerely hope, to give focus to it all.   

So, in memory of Polina (aged 10), her family and so many others who have lost their lives in Ukraine.

As always, I am most grateful for the assistance of so many in making this song possible including:
Juliet Lyons – Lead vocals
Nightsongs Studio Strings – ensemble/solo strings 
Simon Gibson (Abbey Road Studios) – Mastering

For Polina: Till Tears Run Dry

In Time

September

In this song I enclose everything I think about my work as an artist. Proceeding along risky paths, responding to violence with even more sensitivity, because sensitivity can truly move the world. Embrace your sensitivity and that of others, choose who you want to be and follow your nature, whatever the cost. 

Written and Performed by Stefano Manotti

TESTO

Comincia da qui questo viaggio nascosto
Con le altre paure del giorno
Che ho lasciato al loro posto
Una notte qui
Vale più di un silenzio
Per sentir la chitarra suonare
Come in braccio a cento persone
Libero così dalle mie leggi
E dalla mente che dalla sua amplifica i rimpianti
Libero così dalle tue leggi
Ho passato troppo tempo per parlarti

Lo so
Quella è la via
Io sto di fianco
Con la mia fantasia
E quel che sarà
Non è roba mia
Non è roba mia

Finisce da qui
Un bel viaggio scomposto
Non si posson tirare le somme
Non si può vedere a che costo

Solo questo ti dico
Se sei nato per qualcosa
Tornerai ogni volta
Sulla strada più rischiosa

Libero così dai compromessi
Dalle parole messe lì per non esporsi
Libero così dai giochi fatti
Per sorprendermi ancora a cantare la vita

Lo so
Quella è la via
Io sto di fianco
Con la mia fantasia
E quel che sarà
Non è roba mia
Non è roba mia

Lo so
Quella è la via
Io sto di fianco
Con la mia fantasia
E quel che sarà
Non è roba mia
Non è roba mia



LYRICS

Begin from here, this hidden journey
With the other fears of the day
That I left in their place
One night from here
Is it worth more than silence
To hear the guitar play
As if embraced by a hundred people

Free like this from my laws
And from the mind that amplifies regrets
Free like this from your laws
I've spent too much time talking to you

I know it
That's the way
I stand by my fantasy
And what will be
It is not my concern
It's not my concern

It ends here
A disjointed journey
You can't add it all up
You can't see at what cost
Only this I tell you
If you were born for something
You'll return every time
To the riskiest road

Free like this from compromises
From words placed there to avoid exposure
Free like this from done deals
To surprise you again and sing life

Fantasia

Third piece in a series of experiments to try other approaches:
'The Crystalline'. You're welcome to listen if you like, if you can.

Future III: The Crystalline

It’s raining , oh it's raining
It's pouring down
All over me
I'm floating , just floating
All adrift
All at sea

Well I'm drowning in my floods of tears
I'm drowning in my doubts and fears

Drifting. well I'm just drifting
Beneath the leaden sky
That covers me
Praying, I'm just praying
Let these tears end soon
and set me free.

It's Raining

A modern Christmas carol for you all. The lovely Mark J Bennett has provided the vocals (and artwork) - all at rather short notice too which is typical of his generosity.

We hope you enjoy it and that it encourages some thought about the Christmas message (which, let's face it, seems to have got a little lost in recent times....)

May the deep peace of the running wave be yours.

THREE BOATS
I saw three boats come sailing in,
Come sailing in, come sailing in.
I saw three boats come sailing in,
On Christmas Day in the morning.

One of those boats won’t sail again,
Not sail again, never sail again.
For that boat sank with all its men
And all its women and children.

The second boat its engine died,
Its engine died ‘cos the smugglers lied
And the waves crashed down on the folk inside
That little boat in the morning.

Those desperate folk held hands and prayed,
Held hands and prayed, as the sea it sprayed
’Til at last they sank beneath the waves
On Christmas day in the morning.

The third boat managed to reach the shore
And the folk inside all prayed some more.
Then the politicians began to roar
With rage on Christmas morning.

“How dare these strangers reach our land
Expecting us to lend a hand?
Our inn is full and we have no room.
Let them go home and face their doom.”

They went to church to sing and pray,
To sing and pray, to sing and pray,
And watch their kids in Nativity plays
On Christmas Day in the morning.

Three Boats

I'll finish E-Ruizzo project with a conceptual LP album: 4 songs about 'Arctica Point'. I imagined it amid rotation axis, geographic north and magnetic pole, and located it on dry land !! Then I draw the cover art.

This opening track tells the decision of leaving this annoying present by travelling to that magical place. 

Translated lyrics will explain it with more detail:

EXPEDICIÓN (EL MUNDO SE HACE PEQUEÑO)  /  EXPEDITION (THE WORLD GETS SMALL)

Cansado de vivir en un mundo que se hace pequeño,  /  Tired of living in a world which gets small,
como ratas nos movemos en nuestro agujero.  /  like rats we move in our hole.

Cierro los párpados para no verlo,  /  I close my eyelids so as not to see it,
pero hay demasiadas cosas feas detrás de ellos.  /  but there are too many ugly things behind them.

Con los ojos cerrados veo mis recuerdos,  /  With my eyes closed I see my memories,
veo el presente que vivo y no quiero verlo.  /  I see the present I live in and I don’t want to see it.

Con los ojos cerrados no dejo de pensarlo,  /  With my eyes closed I can’t stop thinking about it,
tengo que ir a algún sitio donde olvidarlo.  /  I must go somewhere to forget it.

Partiremos hacia donde los recuerdos se olvidan,  /  We will leave for where memories are forgotten,
donde el frío congela el dolor de la vida,  /  where cold freezes the pain of life,
donde el hielo y la nieve nos protege del hombre,  /  where ice and snow protect us from mankind,
donde el cuerpo y el alma se purifican.  /  where body and soul are purified.

Tenlo todo preparado para nuestra expedición.  /  Get everything ready for our expedition.
Formemos una expedición ártica,  /  Let’s form an Arctic expedition,
Tenlo todo preparado para nuestra expedición.  /  Get everything ready for our expedition.
Formemos una expedición ártica,   /  Let’s form an Arctic expedition,
formemos una expedición ártica  /  let’s form an Arctic expedition

Ártica…  /  Arctica…
entre el polo magnético y el norte geométrico  /  between the magnetic pole and the geometric north
se encuentra el Punto Ártica.  /  is located the Arctica Point.

Partiremos hacia donde el reloj no gira.  /  We’ll leave for where the clock doesn’t go round.
Partiremos hacia donde el tiempo no pasa,  /  We’ll leave for where time doesn’t go by,
al lugar donde seis meses sólo duran un día.  /  for the place where six months only last one day.

Viviendo en un mundo que se hace pequeño,  /  Living in a world which gets small,
como ratas nos movemos en nuestro agujero.  /  like rats we move in our hole.
Con los ojos cerrados no dejo de pensarlo,  /  With my eyes closed I can’t stop thinking about it,
tengo que ir a algún sitio donde olvidarlo.  /  I must go somewhere to forget it.

Ártica…  /  Arctica…
entre el polo magnético y el norte geométrico  /  between the magnetic pole and the geometric north
se encuentra el Punto Ártica.  /  is located the Arctica Point.
entre el polo magnético y el norte geométrico  /  between the magnetic pole and the geometric north
se encuentra el Punto Ártica.  /  is located the Arctica Point.

Esperar no es lo único que haremos allí.  /  To wait is not the only thing we’ll do there.
Sabes que no es fácil sobrevivir,  /  You know it’s not easy to survive,
cuando no hay nada que te empuje a seguir.  /  when there’s nothing pushing you on.

Post Apocalyptic Dreams - 3 - Still Alive

I love to compose and play bass, guitar and keyboard. I use Logic pro x and plugins and virtual instruments, and often I record my projects and collaborate with others musicians online by www.ohmstudio.com


All tracks  are recorded in a spontaneous manner typically in a single take. Most lyrics are also spontaneous improvisations derived from the feelings of the moment. We let the guitar and drums interact and the music just happens. Most if not all of the music is inspired from this interaction.

The recording equipment up until January 2019 consisted of a dated Fostex 8 track and a few microphones...We simply lay down a guitar and drum track and let it unfold the way you are hearing it by bouncing tracks. We just have to make music to live. Music of any kind, music that speaks for itself... 

In January 2019 recording equipment was upgraded to Logic X and a UA Apollo MKll Quad Core Recording interface...We entered a new building and still trying to find the light switch so bare with us as we keep lighting matches...
