Very beautiful and excellent truth on  the  keys.

i love how the higher timbres sound a bit like a little music box

oh sharon. what can someone  say , such beauty and uplifting, also charming and mellow at the same time. its always a joy to hear your play. youre an angel :)

feels also like a little bit of innocence, maybe thats the childish view, kinda

Very beautiful waltz who remember to me the music I used to hear in the house of Amanda, my aunt.

Carameladora - DREAMS

Main parts --- nylon and steel string acoustic with some electric guitar overdubs later. A kind of study, with some almost experimental electric guitar ornaments. Recovered the acoustic guitar files, fixed them up, and glued it together! A bit of unevenness in the quality means best on earphones I think.

Step into the Light

Cinderella’s song about dreams and beautiful wishes is perfect for the Christmas/Holiday season. I tried to keep the delicacy and innocence of the song with theme and progressing variations. Each variant paints a slightly different scene and ambiance. Classic, vintage Disney music brings back to us beautiful childhood memories..It was very difficult to record with acoustic piano and I hope I brought this familiar song some justice!  The theme of the original work was from Franz Liszt's Etude No. 9 Ricordanza of the Transcendental Etudes.

Jaime J. Ross and I wrote this song in January 2012 for our Soundcloud community: 
https://soundcloud.com/jaime-and-rock/the-sailor-jaime-j-ross-and-rock-flexible-january-2012
I always wanted to revisit this song and make a new version. In January 2022, 10 years after, I made this new alternative version :)

The Sailor (Lyrics by Jaime J. Ross)

I stare across the water 
As gentle as can be 
My love, my son you carry 
While the sea, She carries me

I'm writing you a letter 
For our son I haven't met 
Please hold him tight and love him 
I'm not able to just yet...

Dear son you are so special 
I've loved you for all time 
Your Mother gave me such a gift 
A blessing that's all mine

As I look up to the heavens 
And think of all I am 
I'm thankful for my little boy 
Who I'll watch become a man

Please feel the love I'm sending 
Through this letter that you hold 
And know I'm thinking of you 
Til the sea, She brings me home.

As you walk through life I'll follow 
But, I'll watch you from afar 
I'll let you be what you desire 
And love just who you are

These stars that look down on me 
They shine as well for you 
Look out and think of me, my son 
I'll be coming home real soon

There is no bigger blessing 
Than a son to call my own 
I'm counting down these lonely days 
Til the sea, She brings me home

Please feel the love I'm sending 
Through this letter that you hold 
And know I'm thinking of you 
Til the sea, She brings me home.

Waking Up To A Copper Sunrise/Bloom

Meow..and pseudo yoruba..groove..analog electronic

Yoruba

This song is about a drifter who roles into ghost town where he sees shadows silhouette of people from a long time ago. He thinks that they are real and experiences an evening of southern hospitality that includes a bottle of bourbon whisky. It's when he wakes up in the morning that he thinks if it was all in his head....Were they just visions he had in that ghost town. The deeper meaning to the song is that we live in a world we think is real, formed by our experiences and influenced by the environment. However, there may come a time when we wake up to the reality as it really is. Life is formed around ghosts and sillouettes who can influence our behaviour. As Marcus Aurelius once words are opinions not facts....or in the modern era....wake up and taste the coffee.

Lyrics: 
The tumbleweed roles down a dusty boardwalk
In a ghost town in New Mexico
Shadows silhouette in the evening sun
Of people from a long time ago
As the moon rises on the horizon
A drifter rides in. You could tell where he’s been
After days on the road feeling saddle sore
All he could think “I need a cool drink.
I need a good woman and more”.

There was southern hospitality he’d never seen before
They welcomed him into the local bar
With a bottle of bourbon and a home cooked meal
He felt like a movie star. 
Soon the bottle was dry 
His head rolled back, and he closed his eyes
Few have walked in the drifter’s shoes
He’d crossed many lines so many times 
Life could be good to a few.

Well, the mist fell down on the old ghost town
As he closed his eyes and fell asleep
It’s more than in his head
It’s more than what he thought and said- skin deep

The drifter he woke on the morning sunrise
He turned and opened his eyes
Looking through the haze of an empty glass
He saw to his surprise
The bar was empty, not a soul in sight
He raised to his feet then looked down the street
He was on his own felt shivers to his bones
Was it all in his mind? Was it all in his head?
Were they visions he had in that ghost town?

One thousand miles from Texas

Dawn of the morning lightly caresses
The moon touch of our hearts reveals 
In the blackest of nights..
In the breathlessness of circumstances 
The embracing hearts slowly heals..

++++. PROFILE NOTES ++++

Once a wannabe, not yet a has been.

It had been over a decade since I put together a song,
and for that matter basically walked away from music altogether.
Losing hope that I would ever have the time to put into music again,
I finally gave away my 3rd music studio.
I ran across SoundCloud around 2013,
and thought I might take what few songs I had recorded, 
and lay them to rest there.
And there they languished.

HOWEVER, around 2017 I went back to SoundCloud
and began listening a little more and a little more,
and actively taking a part in visiting the sites
of so many wonderful musicians and beautiful songs.
Also, more and more often I would discover that these artists
were blossoming everywhere around the world,
and most definitely worthy of high praise and compliments.

Then suddenly, these old dead soundtracks right here
began to have a bit of life breathed back into them.
From the kind words that began to come trickling in,
I thought, maybe, someday I might give this music thing a try again.

The thing that finally pushed me into action
was a particular SoundCloud artist…Sander Heerings,
AKA https://soundcloud.com/wane-of-summer
 

Not only was he encouraging,
but he began faithfully responding to a few questions,
then a barrage of them.

The final result seemed to be that after a couple of months,
the Old Grinder now has a 4th studio and, finally, a new song.
I hope there may be many more to come.

Thank you Sander, and to the multitude that have dropped in
to listen to these old songs, 
and most of all, for perking up my spirits.
