Last year whilst I visited my daughter in France before Christmas, she surprised me with this gift of a "Séance de Shiatsu"....the lady who treated me, knew I write music, and she asked me if I could hear anything....
This is what I could hear......
My good friend Jean-Pierre Dubois (JiPé) was so kind to add his own orchestration to it, my sincere thanks go out to him...
I hope you will enjoy listening....

# Lyrics

You are strong enough to hold your ground
To fight the loneliness you keep too close

You have the will to hold the lights inside of yourself
The fire that burns in yourself

On you, you can rely to push on through
To lead the charge and make the next steps last

You have the will to hold the lights inside of yourself
The fires that burn in yourself

Shining lights
Burning bright
For yourself
For no one else

You have the will to hold the lights inside of yourself
The flames to fan and grow the lights inside of yourself
The fires that burn in yourself

Inside of Yourself

LYRICS
-------------

Adrift In a world that you can't comprehend
As you shuffle down sidewalks you used to defend
And pick through the garbage from parties you no longer attend

You know you're a stranger in still stranger lands
Where the crumbling monuments once used to stand
And they look at you funny when you ask them where to find an honest man

When you're gone, long, long gone

When they try to dismiss you, you piss on their shoes
As they fondle their falsehoods and call them the truth
If only the hunger in our bellies were so easily soothed

But you are not like them and you don't even try
No matter how rotten, you can't make them cry
You're as real as their shadows but they'll never understand why

Until you're gone, long, long gone

So you eat in the market and sleep in a hole
You drink from your hands now instead of a bowl
Stand naked before them to show how the years take their toll

And when the wild dogs come to nip at your legs
And the passing onlookers who expect you to beg
But your life was a promise and it's far too late now to renege

And then you're gone, long, long gone

The Crab Nebula
June 2022
Duration: 3:00
Listen to the Cosmic Soundscapes Playlist: https://soundcloud.com/bruce-klepper-1/sets/cosmic-soundscapes
The Crab Nebula is a supernova remnant and pulsar wind nebula in the constellation of Taurus. A supernova remnant is the structure resulting from the explosion of a star.  The bright light from the supernova explosion that formed the Crab Nebula was observed by Chinese, Japanese, and Arab astronomers in 1054 A.D. The light has since faded and the Crab Nebula is no longer visible without a telescope.  The name comes from William Parsons, 3rd Earl of Rosse, who observed the object in 1842 using a 36-inch telescope.  Lord Rosse named the nebula the "Crab" in 1844 because its tentacle-like structure resembled the legs of the crustacean.

Deep South Roads

I wrote this song last year https://soundcloud.com/johnnymc2/time?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing this is the original. I always liked the song and i think it has great Mainstream potential so i have decided to give it a bit of a Work Over, New Guitar Part & new vocal new mix, bring the bass and drums to the fore to drive the song.  I called it "Time"  last Time around, so this one is called " Second TIME around" its a song with would you believe TIME as the main character and i have tried to intertwine Time with love...I would really value your opinions on this song , if you have the time to listen :-) ...does it work for you .. Thanks in advance . Johnny

Second TIME Around

By my way of thinking, playing the piano is like reading a great book.  One can go anywhere or do anything with no danger to life or limb.  In this little piece I mosey along on horseback with the cool breeze in my hair.  (I've always wanted to be a "horse person" but I don't think it's going to happen now.) This is the next best thing -- and probably safer.

Some of our art is made on computers, some of it is made by hand. We are particularly interested in that gray area in between where you cant really tell. All of what we create here is one work laid out in segments, all connected. The Mystic Tape Deck universe is vast and explores all manner of adding meaning to our lives, while pondering meaninglessness.

Please consider supporting our project and helping us complete the work. We make books and cds that go with them. We also have a graphic novel and a custom oracle deck in the works. All part of the story.

Greetings to you: readers, beaders, seekers, wanderers, wonderers, outsiders, rebels, fantasy gamers, freaks, mythologists, philosophers, appreciators, creators, perpetuators of beauty, coveters of mysterious objects, collectors of counter culture, the curious, the questioners, the unusual, the unique, the star children, the light workers, shadow integrators, diviners, alchemists, hermits, monks and popes, the saviors and prophets, the builders and destroyers of worlds, the old ones, the young ones, the rollers of boulders, the sun orbiters, the morning star dewdrops and twinkle toed dreamers of dreams, you mystic shining beacons, you crossers and denizens of the void, reality shapers, universe makers and underworld freaks.

"A prominent feature of avant-garde music is to break through various rules and regulations of traditional culture, in order to transcend established creative principles and appreciation habits. Avant-garde music pursues novelty in musical form and style, insisting that art is above everything else; thus, it creates a transcendental and mysterious sound world. Hint, metaphor, symbol, association, imagery, synesthesia and perception are widely used in avant-garde music techniques to excavate the mystery of human heart and the flow of consciousness, so that many seemingly unrelated but essentially very important events interweave into multi-level structures and forms."

Mysterious, Magical, Music is Wonderful!  Thanks for visiting!  Please feel free to share my music.  Enjoy!
