Since I lost my best friend last year, I've been making songs like this.

I have released a new album, so please listen to it!

Since you've been gone

Since You've Been Gone

Awn is a central character in Ann Leckie's book "Ancillary Justice".  Essentially a decent human being, striving to do her best for people but, ultimately, she's a victim of injustice. 
I was noodling with my Gibson 335 whilst working on guitar tones and came up with the main tune. I've been looking for a track to go with it for long enough!

Drama - Finnish Kantele Atmosphere

Belle on flute
ocean on ocean sounds
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ik23YWBJo30

I'm goin' down to the ocean right now
Headin' on down's like paradise
The sun hoverin' over the ocean
Waves that rumble upon the shore
Timeless tales of the sea

Reminiscing all the way
You don't need apologies
You can do most anything you want and it's ok

Anywhere you wanna go
You can decide the destination
Wash upon the shore
The wave around the bend that follows

ocean song

Number 9

Lyrics : R. Higgins 
Vocals : R. Ives @rick-ives-668407855
Instrumental track : Mahan Mahan

Original version : https://soundcloud.com/rick-ives-668407855/big-pharma-number-9

In the shadow of the valley on a dark dusty trail
Ahead is a desert with the past on his tail
A psilocybin sinner with a gleam in his eye
Past his prime still alive feeling like it's time to die

Oh help him lord please one more time 
This cat's had 8 lives and I'm on number 9

(Intro)Can’t you love me show this niggas what the fuck to do
We had the money, but our love is fucking disabled
Couldn’t pack the car, you know what we should do
Couldn’t pack the wraith, you know what we should 

(Chorus)
Keeping Lil bitch by the estate
Got a whole team by my side gate
Dealing with the prince, in my mindset
Feeling that this niggas goin’ upset

(Trans)
 Nursery as primary, got a fujtisu, you cannot post into the room, I’m a dude
Cause I got hoes littering, you sitting on a stool, I prefer standing when I shoot

(Chorus)Keeping lil bitch by the estate
Got a whole team by my side gate
Dealing with the prince, in my mindset
Feeling that this niggas goin’ upset

(Chorus)
Keeping Lil bitch by the estate
Got a whole team by my side gate
Dealing with the prince, in my mindset
Feeling that this niggas goin’ upset

(Verse I)
Keeping glocks into the hood, cause I will never stand that
I use to love my cereals, now I got shay Samantha
I believe riches are the real, and I just wish to be real
Melinda MHD, we got a whole brand new team
Feeding pressure on my head, set my P.T.S.D
I thought my niggas really love me, so we R.I.P
Savatrucha at the end, and a lotta bullshits
Melinda MHD, we got a whole brand new team

(Trans) 
Nursery as primary, got a fujtisu, you cannot post into the room, I’m a dude
Cause I got hoes littering, you sitting on a stool, I prefer standing when I shoot

(Chorus)
Keeping Lil bitch by the estate
Got a whole team by my side gate
Dealing with the prince, in my mindset
Feeling that this niggas goin’ upset

Rock A Car - Paploviante

I've been "away" for a while musically, because I was busy with setting up a new PC as "music machine", but yesterday and today I've created a new track from scratch, started with programming percussion, beats, brass and stuff, the jungle vibe ambience included (with Palindrome); so all is vst and no audio loops used. Finally I added a sloppy sax jam, which may be replaced some day ;-) so have fun and enjoy my late summer vibes ! photo by Truman Talbot, unsplash
