Wonderful atmosphere! I’m impressed a lot!

Revisiting this-love it Brian ⭐️🎧⭐️

Love the chorus guitar and melody in the intro. Great chords. One of your best one‘s to my opinion!

My favorite of this batch. I love the melody and the layers of the guitar.

Sleepwalking In The Rain

To the one i love

PARADISE 

On her cheek a tear 
and I'm ready to do 
anything 
She won't look at me 
and in my head it's 
anything 

To prove her right 
I'm even ready to say 
anything
I can hear those around me saying 
that it doesn't work like that 
anything

they don't understand 
that with her I win every time
I who didn't believe 
she is now 
my only faith 

The days 
end to end forge my life 
always
lead me to her my future 
the day 
when the time comes to leave
love
will be my only true
Paradise

With my hand raised I'd be lying 
if I had to get her 
from a bad situation 
I can already hear those who will say 
that these things can't be done 
no, no, not like that 

they don't understand 
that she does it every day 
as much for me
she knows how to put off winter with her arms
when I tell her I'm too cold. 

The days 
end to end forge my life 
always
lead me to her, my future 
the day 
when the time comes to leave
love
will be my last
Paradise

Paradis (translated)

this song took me 10 years and multiple variations before it made it to this one. I feel like it grew with me as I grew as a songwriter. It's about knowing that you're in a dying relationship and all the ups and downs. 

Ask or Tell

I can hear 
You sleeping in the bedroom
While I sit and clear 
Every sound your phone makes
'Cause it's 2AM 
And normally on silent
But it rings again
He's just a friend?

When you've gone to sleep
Who was in your dreams tonight?
I won't ask or tell
But love I'll be right near your side
This one last time

I am walking here with you, arms around your frame
The windy city breathes tonight, and  makes us feel the same
A distant sigh, convenient lies, what’s it gonna take? 
I keep coming back to you, even when it’s fake

We can make it through, through until this narrow road has opened up
We can be as true as true, as we want to be run by me and you

When you've gone to sleep
Who was in your dreams tonight?
I won't ask or tell
But love I'll be right near your side
This one last time

I think we are through...
Through until this narrow road
Has opened up
And we can be as true
As we want to be run by me and you
(I keep coming back to you
but I know it's too late)

When you've gone to sleep
Who was in your dreams tonight?
I won't ask or tell
but love I'll be right near your side

You walk in, evasive eyes it makes me afraid
Of who's that calling out to you, even though it's late
A distant sigh, convenient lies, what's it gonna take
I keep coming back to you, but I know it's too late

I know it's too late
We gave all there was to try
I know it's too late

“Walk Softly and Go Far”  by Luke

This is a second time I  found (and used) a sound that is somehow resembling a human voice (after Crazy Levels). Here I made two riffs using that sound and play one or the other the whole song, but always with a different arrangement, and rhythm (there's 6 rhythms altogether). 

Song can be seen as consisting of 3 parts (or themes). First one plays just riffs and rhythms (techno rhythms). In second one I introduce synths to round up the sound and add some mystery to overall atmosphere. End of second theme turns into a punk rhythm. 

Third theme starts with metal/double kick rhythm playing along synths and then the electronic bass turns on and you got some heavy experimental sound happening. Riffs will join the show promptly. 

The track is almost 6 minutes long, which is becoming a norm, more than a being a rarity, because my skills of working with cells (in garageband) and structure improved a lot. I plan to do more of this crazy stuff in the future combining metal and techno features. Wish me luck.

Sounds I used:
- kick - big room (electronic)
First rhythm:
- snare + clap + hi-hat - hip hop drum machine (smart drums)
- ride - house drum machine (electronic) - (smart drums)
Second rhythm:
- snare + hi-hat - modern 909 (electronic)

- voice sound - voice bass (bass) - roomy stab
- synths - analog sweep (pads) - overtone
- bass - 70s classic synth bass (bass) - smooth

Kwa kwa kwa song

Two years ago me and my son went to the beautiful city of Lisbon. I do hope I get to go there soon again and enjoy the lovely atmosphere, people, music, food, narrow streets and beautiful buildings.

Yesterday I started my small tribute to the lovely city, I finished it today and hope you will enjoy the listen.

Lisboa

Inspired by a poem by Robert Bly:

 “Ah, on this planet we are born again and again. A gold sun rises in the East, but for us, it is a black sun. Each time the black sun rises, dazzling and tremendous, its sadness flows into us. ‘If this sadness could not flow out of me, it would kill me.’
I listen and I see a horse-dragon swim up out of the Black Sea. It climbs into the air. Play on, play on - what can we do but long for this dragon-water from the Black Sea to fall on us?”

While making this, the medieval text 'Omnia sol temperat' dumped into my head. As it have the rebirth theme as well, the synchronicity of it all seemed unmistakeable :-)

Ah, on this Planet

Ah, On This Planet

A short instrumental section for a pretentious long song I've just started on - hopefully it will work in context  🤪... it's fair to say I struggled with the fingerpicking - needs work 😬

“November Haze”  by Luke

UNSEEN WORLD

Two new simple tracks today. I know I'm posting too much, but I'm experiencing extreme level of anxiety and depression. It's not my normal feeling of extreme anxiety and depression. I dunno, it just feels different, and I can't really explain it. It's also mixed with a lot of anger. Anyway, the only way I can cope with this feeling is to create music nonstop. It's weird because not long ago I was experiencing extreme anxiety and depression, and I found it very hard to create anything. This time I can't stop. I have to keep creating, or I feel like I'll lose my mind. The down side is that my engagement is really low. Even lower than when I first started. I could just build up a backlog of tracks to post later when I inevitably stop, and have a creative block. However, I just want to keep posting. Whatever, I shouldn't care, and just do what I need to do to keep my sanity. Big thanks to the people who stop by, and support me all the time. I really appreciate it, and I should do more to support you back.

poem / copyright jo richter:

Galen fand die Säfte innen, Kneipp
aussen und Schauberger liess sie
wirbeln, Hahnemann schütteln: Blut und
Lymphe, Laune und Gemüt. Aus

der inneren Umwelt, der äusseren
Inwelt strömt und färbt sich das
Geschick in den Wassern: Zu deuten
aus Treibgut und gelösten Erden,


die als Schicksal verwirklicht ein
Leben sind. Das war es, was ihnen
zwischen den Fingern zerrann: Ach,
Heraklit wusste um kein Ende
des einzigen Stroms, der in jedem
Dasein mündet - und aus ihm quillt.
