Can I Still Love?
Music and Lyrics by Mike Krath

I see a shadow,
on the wall,
is it her?
I don’t know,

I hear a hand scrape,
across my door,
is she back?
I can’t guess. 

On and on,
life goes on,
I’ve gotten old,
and the beat of my heart is weak,
can I still love?

I smell a face 
from distant past,
is she here?
Not a hint. 

I feel her pains, 
that once were real,
by me?
I don’t know. 

On and on,
life goes on,
I’ve gotten old,
and the beat of my heart is weak,
can I still love?

Can I Still Love?

Experiment forcibly using new equipment all in one track. Well, this happened. It's kind of interesting I think.
I treated myself to a Twisted Electrons "Blast Beats" groovebox.. the lowest-fi glitchiest piece of cr*p equipment you can buy for not cheap. And I love it. Straight from the realms of Dystopia
Also, less prominent: some pad created with a Roland JD-08. Yummy. What an excellent little gem that.
Also in the mix: Elektron model:cycles. I am assuredly going to do a concept album or at least EP with that thing.
Vocals were recorded using a TritonAudio Fethead Transformer. That's a very neat in-line pre-amp running on phantom power.


I threw some lyrics together about things that are pretty current, and keep me busy, so here they are:

lyrics

Were you someone, I have to be asking
grew up serene, away from the struggle
and strife now presented that never did touch you
but words of deception that make you believe
that the world was on fire, injustice abound
right at your doorstep to take all your freedom?
but just close your eyes, there was never a real threat
other than the ones of split tongues and venom!

wired up, side on break the violence
fired up, ride on, hear the silence

tell me again who you were once ago
when the future was open and dreams were allowed
think of exactly who told you the difference
between cats and dogs and the hits that were misses?

the tales that were spun on a landfill of gaps:
all cognitive bias we need to unlearn!
projection, reflections, deflections, the point is
we all want our freedom and peace with the world

wired up, side on break the violence
fired up, ride on, hear the silence

My thank you to the radio of my youth.  When the music was counted on to save us from the unpleasantness and stress of the world.

And The Radios On

I have not played guitar for a while ... the other day I played with some harmonies and this little song came out. 
A bit Yamaha guitar and Hurdy Gurdy plus vocals.

Rock_Flexible - Geburtstag

Leere Straßen, niemand hier
nur ein Wind fegt durch die Nacht
das Riesenrad, hier haben Kinder gestern noch gelacht

Ich sah durch Deine Augen
all die Orte hier am Meer
kalt und nass, von tiefster Dunkelheit bis zum Morgengrauen.

---

Auch wenn Du Dich dort versteckst
Ich kann Dich sehn, ich will Dich sehn!
Es ist noch nicht die Zeit sich aufzugeben, uns aufzugeben!
Auch wenn Du Dich selbst verletzt
Wenn Du Dich löschst, mich leiden lässt
Geburtstag meint doch Neubeginn - kein Tag zum Gehen

---

Du sitzt allein am weiten Strand
die feuchte Luft drückt Dich nieder 
und die Brandung spielt ihr monotones Lied

Ich fühl durch keine Worte
die Einsamkeit die Dich umgibt
auch wenn Du stets beteuerst, dass Du sie so liebst.

---

Auch wenn Du Dich dort versteckst
Ich kann Dich sehn, ich will Dich sehn!
Es ist noch nicht die Zeit sich aufzugeben, uns aufzugeben!
Auch wenn Du Dich selbst verletzt
Wenn Du Dich löschst, mich leiden lässt
Geburtstag meint doch Neubeginn - kein Tag zum Gehen
