I call it World Pop but really it's not Pop or World music.  It is born of improvisation and finished with minimal production or fuss.  Some songs are left as they were the night they were created and recorded.  Others have additional voices or instruments added.  The album was largely written off the cuff in a manner of freestyle improvisation.

Chorus

Be yourself
Don't hide
Don't pretend
And ride
Down that road
That's old
Try new
Don't hide
Be you

Cimmeria
by Robert E. Howard

I remember
The dark woods, masking slopes of sombre hills;
The grey clouds' leaden everlasting arch;
The dusky streams that flowed without a sound,
And the lone winds that whispered down the passes.

Vista upon vista marching, hills on hills,
Slope beyond slope, each dark with sullen trees,
Our gaunt land lay. So when a man climbed up
A rugged peak and gazed, his shaded eye
Saw but the endless vista--hill on hill,
Slope beyond slope, each hooded like its brothers.

It was a gloomy land that seemed to hold
All winds and clouds and dreams that shun the sun,
With bare boughs rattling in the lonesome winds,
And the dark woodlands brooding over all,
Not even lightened by the rare dim sun
Which made squat shadows out of men; they called it
Cimmeria, land of Darkness and deep Night.

It was so long ago and far away
I have forgotten the very name men called me.
The axe and flint-tipped spear are like a dream,
And hunts and wars are like shadows. I recall
Only the stillness of that sombre land;
The clouds that piled forever on the hills,
The dimness of the everlasting woods.
Cimmeria, land of Darkness and the Night.

Oh, soul of mine, born out of shadowed hills,
To clouds and winds and ghosts that shun the sun,
How many deaths shall serve to break at last
This heritage which wraps me in the grey
Apparel of ghosts?  I search my heart and find
Cimmeria, land of Darkness and the Night.

Closure

https://soundcloud.com/chips-in-nose-and-ears had a beat, and I had a chord set…we shared them and started following different inspiration lines to get this eclectic but coherent suite:

CINAE-R SUITE (1) Rapped Andalucia (with chips-in-nose-and-ears)
(https://soundcloud.com/esemanolain-ruizzo/cinae-r-suite-1)

CINAE-R SUITE (2) Tirolese Jam (with chips-in-nose-and-ears)
(https://soundcloud.com/esemanolain-ruizzo/cinae-r-suite-2)

CINAE-R SUITE (3) Rasta Pasta (with chips-in-nose-and-ears)
(https://soundcloud.com/chips-in-nose-and-ears/cinae-r-suite-3-rastapasta)

This first number was already done (original version at https://soundcloud.com/chips-in-nose-and-ears/andalucia-by-e-ruizzo) but I found myself rapping over it in the shower, and felt it so catchy that I had to rescue another of my old poems for it !!

Letra/Lyrics:

No sé qué es lo que me pasa,  /  I don’t know what happens to me,
ni porqué no me preocupo   /  nor why I do not worry
por problemas. Nunca supo  /  for problems. Never knew
mi ser en qué se basa  /  by myself on what is based
mi alegría, que rebasa  /  my happiness, which exceeds
el nivel de la inquietud.  /  the level of anxiety.

No es una gran multitud  /  It is not a great multitude
de cosas mas no me aburre,  /  of things but it doesn’t bore me,
ya sé qué es lo que me ocurre:  /  Yet I know what’s going on with me: 
lo que me pasa eres tú.  /  what happens to me it’s you.
