Very nice! and well done!, Mr. Bruce👏👌 My ears taste flavours of Mr. Willie N. and Mr. B(oss)ruce S. very nice and original tune, excellent wordsmithing!👏✌️💓🙏

nice, Bruce.  This song is like quite a journey. You've got a unique songwriting gift and an emotive voice.  Lyrics are heartfelt.

the contrast of drums and guitar is quite interesting!

Great singing on this one Bruce, and naked with emotion. A very creative composition, inspired performance. Durge

Like the guitar rifs and orchestration on this track. Nice production.

What We Can't See (ft. Dave - vocals, Margaret Abbott - violin, Chris Morgan - trumpet)

Now for something....well, different. I wrote these lyrics months ago and had ZERO ideas of what I wanted to do with them. Enter my brother Vincent who is the most incredible musician I know.  I told him. "produce me!".  I wrote the lyrics and sing it, Vincent wrote the music, played all instruments and sang a little backing vocals. When he's not creating great music THIS way, he's recognized throughout Europe and North America for his electronic creations...check him out

What Kind of Love Is This?

What kind of love is this                         
That the moon stays just out of reach right above her shoulder          
So guarded in his speech
Won't confirm or deny any storybook ending they sold her
It's a question she cannot dismiss, 
What kind of love, what kind of love is this?

There are days when comfort's found in the little seeds she's sewn
Won't consider cut and run 'cause it's better than being alone

Uneven give and take
Her dreams still tied with a bow of expectation
Not that he'd even know
He goes through life, no sense of obligation
Is contentment wrapped in a kiss?
What kind of love, what kind of love is this?

A game of beat the clock
She places her bet on hope of a tomorrow
Such a slippery slope
He's playing for all the time he can beg, steal or borrow
Who's the winner, it's hit or miss
What kind of love, what kind of love is this?

Praeditos is a track made with doromb (jew's/jaw/mouth harp) by https://soundcloud.com/discratebye.

Invited to work on it, I jammed on bass, then crafted it with drums & organ, finally adding some guitars & tuned doromb at about 1:00. So, here is my super-late contribution to the Praeditos project...

Your Eyes

Para Lia - 'The Man Who Went Away'
words and music by René Methner, Copyright 2018

in his dreams
his little world was on fire
but he felt safe
in his hide-out

in the television news
he found his dreams come alive

the man at the look-out in his hide-out
says now's the time for me
i gotta get away
get away from here
 
the rythm of boots marching on the ground
kicks a pretty hole in his pretty cloud
he's gotta get away
get away from here

'cause what can you do
when you're always quiet never loud
when you think that you are just
a face in the crowd

the man at the look-out in his hide-out
says now's the time for me
i gotta get away
get away from here

the world you know dies from the inside out
the heavens gate is closed
gotta get away
get away from here

the man at the look-out in his hide-out
is always on the run
he's gotta get away
get away from here

he's looking for his island in the sun
the good old days are gone
he's gotta get away
get away from here

the man who went away is never done
in silence, always gone
he's gotta get away
get away from here
gotta get away

The Man Who Went Away

Para Lia - The Man Who Went Away

(0:00) L'Âme du défunt quitte le monde terrestre;
(0:18) Elle approche des rives désolées du Styx;
(0:36) Elle se demande où elle se trouve;
(1:12) Des squelettes observent discrètement;
(1:30) Le Passeur approche;
(1:39) L'Âme réalise qu'elle est morte;
(1:48) Elle tente de plaider, de mauvaise foi;
(2:15) Des esprits errants se lamentent;
(2:24) Réminiscence du souvenir de la Vie;
(3:01) Le souvenir disparaît;
(3:10) La barque arrive de l'autre côté du Styx;
(3:28) Tombent des flocons de cendre;
(3:46) Le chant des lamentations devient distinct;
(4:22) Les Âmes défuntes se rassemblent;
(4:58) Elles approchent des portes du Royaume des Morts;
(5:16) Ouverture des portes du Royaume des Morts;
(5:35) Les Âmes franchissent les portes;
(5:48) Fermeture des portes du Royaume des Morts.

La traversée du Styx

She's left him, but his nights are still filled with pleasant dreams about her.
His days aren't so pleasant.

This is Vimana,  an older release but still far out and a fun listen I think 

Lots of movement in here and once again I'm grateful to One Blind Mouse for handling up on the post production. 
Check out his amazingly brilliant music here - www.oneblindmouse.com  

Also was able to get my buddy Zolo.Future to lay down some bass.  Check out his ambient chill here - https://soundcloud.com/user-434472753

I recently got a new sitar/guitar hybrid made by Danelectro due to being a little bored, and you'll hear that in here along with an old kora harp I snagged off eBay almost a decade ago 

The title comes from @steve-fullyard Steve Fullyard who heard a preview of the song and went into a trance for a couple minutes haha.  He comes out of it and asks if I had a title, I says no and he says "Vimana" .  So I had to look that up and thought it fit great. 

There's a vidya here: https://youtu.be/Hl-3GLNPSrI

thanks for checking it out

Polaris, also called Alpha Ursae Minoris, Earth’s present northern polestar, or North Star, at the end of the “handle” of the so-called Little Dipper in the constellation Ursa Minor. Polaris will be closest to the north celestial pole in about 2100, and, because of the precession of Earth’s axis, in several centuries Polaris will be several degrees away. Polaris is actually a triple star, the brighter of two visual components being a spectroscopic binary with a period of about 30 years and a Cepheid variable with a period of about 4 days. Its changes in brightness are too slight to be detected with the unaided eye. The apparent visual magnitude of the Polaris system is 2.00. It is about 447.6 light-years from Earth, and, because it is the closest Cepheid variable, measurement of its distance is important for calibrating other means of measuring cosmic distances.

Composed, played, recorded and mixed by Davor Dojchinovich.
