Almost Halloween again, but I'll say it one more time anyway.
We have one planet, where we all live. No one can escape anywhere from this tiny speck of dust in the universe.

Then it is so incredibly unimaginable that people in so many countries renounce their dignity and their human rights to pay tribute to tyrannical leaders. Leaders who commit virtually every crime that can be committed against people in their own homeland.
They have trampled, oppressed, imprisoned, forcibly relocated, put in re-education camps, imposed coercive laws, tortured and even murdered.
All just to maintain power and remain with their arms in the meat pots, in some kind of smug "I am god" madness that trumps everything. And some of them even see themselves as the rulers of the world in their delusion.
It's laughable if it weren't for the deep seriousness and suffering it causes many people in many parts of our world.

Throughout history, we have seen one lunatic crazier than the other rise to power through these completely absurd behaviors towards his people. And I cannot for the life of me understand how it can go on and on and on.
Is humanity so stupid? Obviously. Including myself according to the wishes I express here below.

I sometimes wish that all these ghosts from both history and the present revolted. And in a tidal wave, washed out all these elements and ensured that human evolution took a big step forward so that in the near future we could at least be called civilized.

But maybe that's the problem. That we who want to change use the wrong weapons, and thus fall prey to war and violence instead of development.
If there were more of us who used the pen as a sword, who used the guitar as a machine gun, drums and cymbals as artillery. Wrote, sang at the top of our lungs and told about the reality around us........

Well, many famous musicians have already done it, throughout the ages. Did it help?............ Well.....not so much........

So if we.....mumble........hmmm.......mumble.....hmm....mumble.......

Wha...what did you say?.........Oh crap, not another lunatic,..... again..........

I SEE GHOSTS! AROUND ME! EVERYWHERE!

isn't that a bit strange...;)

poem / copyright jo richter:

the open book is not a metaphor
you feel its weight as you hold it
text, texture, eerily gossamer
translucent when properly lit

you flip the pages forth and back
adapting your mental state
inhaling white, deciphering black
creating approaches to recreate

when something strikes you, bold
a perspective that's never been yours
you circle around it, trying to hold
its flight, detect where it moors

stubbornly liminal, elusively real
sheer force to broaden your scope
to include it, allow it to heal
from your onslaught, allow you to cope

catching up on the fine print
concludes your reading session
shivering still from a catching a glint
of mind's light when in transgression

Tom (https://soundcloud.com/tom-2020) and I now present track 2 in our collaborative album in progress "La belle et le loup, ou Les loups du Gévaudan" (2023), or in English translation "Beauty and the Beast, or The Wolves of Gevaudan").

The song was created in collaboration on 4 October 2023 (initial composition, recording, arrangement and mix in MAGIX by Tom), 10 October 2023 (additional instruments, melodies and sound effects, recording and arrangement in GarageBand and Logic Pro, with an intermediate mix in Logic Pro by Alex M), and 11 October 2023 (final additions, arrangements and mix in MAGIX by Tom), and posted here on SoundCloud on 13 October 2023 (by Alex M). We are grateful for the use of vocal samples from the package "Magix Trance - The Vocal Trance" purchased and integrated into the music by Tom.

The artwork cover for the track is based on a photo by Tom of 11 September 2013 that was cropped and annotated in Mac OS Preview by Alex M and Tom in coordination on 8 October 2023.

For this composition, I am using the Ukranian Dorian scale. In music, the Romanian minor scale or Ukrainian Dorian scale or altered Dorian scale is a musical scale or the fourth mode of the harmonic minor scale. It is "similar to the dorian mode, but with a tritone and variable sixth and seventh degrees". It is related to both the Freygish and Misheberak scales and is used in Jewish music, "predominant in klezmer bulgarish and doina (doyne).When the Ukrainian Dorian scale functions in the synagogue, it is a mode known as the Mi sheberach (May He Who Blessed) or Av horachamon (Compassionate Father). Arab and Greek scholars give other names to the scale: Nikriz (نكريز) and Aulos, respectively."

"The pitches of the Mi Shebeyrekh [cantorial] mode correspond roughly to a Dorian mode with a raised fourth (for example, D, E, F, G♯, A, B, C, or if Katythian Enharmonic mode of Harmonic Minor ♭4:D♭, E, F, G♯, A, B, C); alternately, it could be described as a variant of the Lydian mode, deriving instead from the harmonic minor scale, rather than from the major scale. Beregovski calls this pitch collection 'Ukrainian Dorian'."

The Ukrainian Dorian scale is used particularly extensively within Julian Cochran's music including the Romanian Dances and Mazurkas.[5] It has also been used by George Gershwin. Another example is the Bert Kaempfert tune "Sweet Maria".

Also called the Ukrainian minor scale, it is a combined type of musical scale.[citation needed] It figures prominently in Eastern European music, particularly Klezmer music, and melodies based on this scale have an exotic, romantic flavor for listeners accustomed to more typical Western scales.

A Ukrainian minor scale in the key of C would proceed as follows: C D E♭ F♯ G A B♭.
A Ukrainian minor scale in the key of B would proceed as follows: B C♯ D E♯ F♯ G♯ A.
Its step pattern is w - h - + - h - w - h - w, where w indicates a whole step, h indicates a half step, and + indicates an augmented second, which looks like a minor third on a keyboard but is notationally distinct.

Chords that may be derived from the scale based on B are Bm, C#7, D, E#dim7, F#m, G#m7b5 and Aaug. This scale is obtainable from the harmonic minor scale by starting from the fourth of that scale. Said another way, the B Ukrainian minor scale is the fourth mode of the F# harmonic minor scale. When its tonic is lowered a semitone, we obtain the Katythian Enharmonic scale, the 4th mode of the Harmonic Minor ♭4 scale:B♭ C♯ D E♯ F♯ G♯ A/C♭ D E♭ F♯ G A B♭/C D♯ E Fdouble sharp G♯ A♯ B. Chords that may be derived from the Katythian Enharmonic scale based on B♭ are Bbaug, C#6, D, Bb7, F#m, F#, Bbm, G#7sus2b5 and Aaug. Likewise, Chords that may be derived from the Katythian Enharmonic scale based on C♭ are Cbaug, D6, Eb, Cb7, Gm, G, Cbm, A7sus2b5, and Bbaug, and for the one based on C♮:Caug, D#6, E, C7, G#m, G#, Cm, A#7sus2b5, and Baug.
