The Knight who became a Legend

Dies ist die erste Episode aus der EP "Die Geschichte von Krankenschwester Hildegard". Die folgende Serie heißt "Helden der Arbeit". Jede EP besteht aus 3 Songs zu einem Beruf. Die deutschen Songtexte sind eigentlich kurze Gedichte von Horst Grabosch, die humorvoll die Arbeit in verschiedenen Berufen würdigen. Die Musik ist extrem eklektisch und ist aus vielen Musikstilen zusammengestzt.

Die Geschichte von Krankenschwester Hildegard

Maurer Klaus hat Schmerzen

Hints or Arabic rhythms mixed with traditional singer-songwriter, introduce Frank’s first single from his coming 3rd album and his 22nd release in just over 2 years.  Again we see his trademark top notch production, warm vocals and insightful lyrics making their mark. Frank’s main strength is surely his song-writing, which underpins the whole project and catches the attention of reviewers. 
“one of the best singer-songwriters today.” 
“A timeless universe of melodic pop" 
“as eclectic as it is ecstatic” 

The lyric delves into the gap between first blush and commitment in a new romance.  The fear and hope that collides within us as we tentatively explore someone else's feelings and compare them to our own. The unease of new love in a world where 'catching feelings' is seen as a bad thing.

Set #2) Karly K (Cornwall, UK) https://soundcloud.com/karlknight

Mad Dog of DC Interviews Karly K

Mad Dog of DC - First I’d like to thank you for accepting my invitation to do a 30 for 30 House Music Mix collaboration with me! I really enjoyed what we achieved and look forward to future collaborations with you! What did you enjoy about the project?
Karly K - It's not often that I get the chance to collaborate with another artist who has as much passion for house music as I do!! Thanks Mad Dog!! Arranging a 30 min set was a lot of fun & I wanted it to reflect not only my style & preferences but to also compliment the first 30 mins, I really believe that challenge was met.
Mad Dog of DC - You definitely killed it bro!!)

Mad Dog of DC - What led you to get into deejaying?
Karly K - I have always been a collector of vinyl since the mid-eighties, I was really influenced by the synth pop sound of the eighties & that naturally led to a love of house music in all it's forms.

Mad Dog of DC - Who would you say are some of your major inspirations in the field of deejaying?
Karly K - The man like Sasha is definitely my biggest inspiration..one of his mixtapes from 1991 is still in my collection. For 30 years I have been following his career & evolution & he is still pushing the boundaries. Paul Oakenfold is also a god in my eyes & his influence on house music over the decades is mind blowing!! I have to mention Armin Van Buuren, as he has also been a huge player in my love for electronic music..the one thing they all have in common is they have all carried the torch for house music in it's various forms & I thank them all for that!!

Mad Dog of DC - How long have you been deejaying?
Karly K - 28 years...hahaha I might be giving away my age!!

Mad Dog of DC - What advice would you give to someone who is just getting started and is interested in deejaying?
Karly K - Play the music you love & learn the basics of beatmatching. I was lucky to have learnt with vinyl & on Technics 1210's, which gives me distinct advantage when using controller's or CDJ's. It's really important to understand the importance of what key's work together. I have a musical background but for those that don't, the Camelot wheel is an excellent tool for the basics!!

Mad Dog of DC - What do you like most about deejaying?
Karly K - The moment when you discover a great blend..I love that!! Deejaying has personal moments of satisfaction but most of all it's the joy that you can bring to people's lives through sound, now that's a rare commodity...

Mad Dog of DC - What is it that you like most about House Music?
Karly K - House music to me brings many emotions in it's endless forms!! Personally, it gives me energy, love and good times!! If someone asked me to describe house music in one word I would say, positivity!!

Mad Dog of DC - Your link will be listed below this mix. Do you have anything exciting coming up that you want to share with everyone?
Karly K - I have just released the final mix of my current 'Future Existence' series & I'm currently planning the next chapter for 2023!! Please visit the playlist featuring my guest mixes on my SC page...I have many more collaborations planned for next year. Exciting times ahead!!

Mad Dog of DC - Thank you for taking time to let everyone learn more about you! Just want to say that in the time I’ve known you, you have always given me sound advice and support! I appreciate you and I look forward to working on future projects with you, my brother!

Stream or purchase A Tribute to Israel at found.asherlaub.com/atributetoisrael

Asher's "A Tribute to Israel" is a medley that combines three well-known Israeli melodies: Yerushalayim Shel Zahav, Raid on Antebbe, and Hatikvah (the Israeli national anthem). The medley begins with a slow tempo and employs simple harmonies to create a solemn and reverential mood. Throughout the piece, a simple and expressive melody is repeated, and various techniques such as chromaticism, syncopated rhythms, and orchestration are used to add interest and variation.

One interesting aspect of "A Tribute to Israel" is the influence of Naomi Shemer's "Yerushalayim Shel Zahav" on the composition. This song, written in 1967 to celebrate the reunification of Jerusalem during the Six-Day War, has become an iconic Israeli song, with its melody based on an old Hassidic tune and its lyrics expressing a love and longing for Jerusalem.

In "A Tribute to Israel," Asher pays tribute to Shemer's contribution to Israeli music by incorporating a variation of the melody from "Yerushalayim Shel Zahav" in the first part of the medley. This use of the melody highlights the song's significance in Israeli culture and music and demonstrates the impact that Shemer had on Israeli music. The melody is played with reverence and a slower tempo, contributing to the overall solemnity of the piece.

In conclusion, "A Tribute to Israel" is a moving medley that combines iconic Israeli melodies, including a variation of "Yerushalayim Shel Zahav." This tribute to Naomi Shemer and her contribution to Israeli music demonstrates the importance of this song in Israeli culture and music and honors its enduring impact.

A Tribute To Israel

The sweet piano sings, tender and serene,
Aching with memories, a wistful, heartfelt scene.
The orchestra swells, painting colors in the air,
Conveying the depths of emotions, beyond compare.

"un-controlling" for cello, piano and two ebows composed by Dika Chartoff (ASCAP 2022) 

Dave Eggar, cello
Clare Longendyke, piano
Christian Amonson, recording engineer
Louis Ng, recording engineer

In memory and celebration of my friend Ben who was a wonderful friend to so many; amazing son, brother and father; a passionate surfer and sailor who lost his life to suicide after a long battle with depression.

During the opening, characterized as Poetico quasi senza mesura (poetic and unmeasured), the e-bow is used as an ostinato - a constant sound triggered by a magnet that vibrates the piano strings. Essentially, it’s a noise that’s calming and seductive at times, but much like depression, or tinnitus, it’s an unwelcome guest. The second part, giocoso (lively and humorous), is an innocent and technical interlude that culminates in climbing adrenaline; such as surfing a giant wave. Finally, Lento Irrealmente (slow and surreal) is a free fall of reverberating, vibrations and letting go. The e-bow is not present at that moment and perhaps a sense of hope, is restored.

This is my entry for the remix competition on Civil Disorder's track "Aerodrome".

Being a bit tired of the usual big room house stuff I went for something different this time. My remix has more of an 80s retro vibe suitable for a film soundtrack of that time. Maybe you'll like it. Definitely not going to win with this one. ;-)

3rd place in the competition

Civil Disorder - Aerodrome (Constellation Lyra Remix)[Electronic Waves Records]

I'm fairly proud of the two main theme of this piece, they have grace and a simplicity that makes it very malleable and expressive. That is, I hope, well displayed through modulation I employed (G-B-D) and frequent switching from major to minor. 
I particularly liked the final bit of the exposition where I reversed the main theme, played it descending instead of ascending, which added a layer of macabre/discord displayed and emphasized through chromaticism and dissonance.
There is still a middle part mising that I may add in the coming days, (although that would transform the form of the piece, so an impromptu might not be the correct title, but we'll see).
