WHAT IF IT'S A DARK SPRING MORNING?

It has been almost 2 years since I heard a production made in a style completely unknown to me: https://soundcloud.com/tetsuo-dubs/tetsuo-senso. I know the creator personally. I asked him what he would say about making a metal version of the track, as I had ideas for processing...
He has supported the project! For many months (while the track was preserved on my hard drive) he encouraged me to release this song.
Today is finally the moment to release - after doing the last few touches these days. Thanks, TETSUO! :)https://soundcloud.com/tetsuo-dubs
This time too, my virtual band rushed to my aid - as I usually do with my compositions.
Produced by Val Akey.
Used and programmed VSTIs:
- Drums: Addictive Drums2;
- Bass: Broomstick Bass;
- Guitars: RealLPC + GuitarRig5.
- String Orchestra: Cytrus (FL Studio 20)
- Choir: DSK ChoirZ
Many thanks to Enrique Meseguer for the cover image! (Pixabay)

Release date: 21 April 2021

Sensitive Destruction

The Harpy, is a powerful and charming eagle that inhabits the rainforests of Latin America. This work is a tribute to this great and majestic raptor.

The Harpy's Flight

My father passed away today 18th Feb 2022. The last few months were particularly hard for him and he just wanted to die.  This song is one of a few I wrote as catharsis. Sometimes we can live too long when quality of life has gone. 

Sometimes there's no justice
There's no need to try
You just need to trust us
'Til it's your time to die

It's painful to watch you
It's not living at all
Just waiting the days through
For that hammer to fall

I know you really want to go
There's nothing I can do
I want you to know

I feel so helpless
Impotent and scared
It's all so hopeless
But cannot be repaired

I know you really want to go
There's nothing I can do
I want you to know
I know you really want to go
There's nothing I can do
I want you to know

A Thousand Cuts

Massive thanks to Fady for reaching out with this incredibly produced track for me to add vocals to. Fady's music was instantly inspiring and the song basically just wrote itself. And big ups to Bitzone for lending his ear and sonic artistry to mix and master this track into vivid color.

Lyrics:

Time trials 
And I’m still miles 
Away Off course 
Of course I’m Falling off 
The track and This time 
I ain’t coming back 

Always
Starting in last
Place
All days
Speedily passed
I race 
To catch up but I can’t keep pace
I chase 
A taste of what it’s like to get a head
Instead
Led off course by centrifugal force
Falling off the edge
Again it’s got me feeling 
Better off 
Dead
When reeling
From being made to 
Head
Back on track
From the invisible hand 
Never giving me slack
As the power ups stack
Bullet bills speed boosting up to the pack  
Yet still producing the deducing  
16th place I can’t crack 
 
Time trials 
And I’m still miles 
Away Off course 
Of course I’m Falling off 
The track and This time 
I ain’t coming back 

Never
Finishing in first 
Or third 
However 
Quickly I burst
Or swerved 
Past peels or fake item 
Box a hazards  
Still out maneuvered and 
Staggered 
Disoriented wheels don’t 
Matter 
When I 
Can’t get a
Grip
As the
Realization 
Of the final lap
Lets the cup 
Slip 
From hopes 
Final dash 
I crash 
Afraid to hit the gas
Hidden shortcuts and cheat codes 
Not given 
Even if I was to play the villain 
Driven 
There’s no opportunity to surpass 
When my previous finishing position 
Was coming in 
Last 

Time trials 
And I’m still miles 
Away Off course 
Of course I’m Falling off 
The track and This time 
I ain’t coming back 

13th place
Thought I was in the chase  
14th place
Slippin’ but thinking keepin’ pace 
15th place 
And still got one in the rear view mirror 
16th place 
Wasn’t a fall from grace is getting clearer

13th Place

Hey Everybody!
The war in the Ukraine has really pressed me down the last weeks. Haven't had much energy for anything. However, under the surface something was developing, growing in my head. Yesterday I picked myself up and started writing and recording. The song just happened to me, within two hours it was finished. All you hear was just first take recording, electric guitar and bass was fully improvised. That's not the way I work usually, but this time I decided to leave it just the way it is, despite of any flaws there are. But I wanted to keep the spontaneity of the recording.

If I would ever had the opportunity to raise some questions to the man in the Kremlin, I think it would be those:

Hey man in the Kremlin
are you doing alright?
Hey man in the Kremlin
will you sleep well tonight?
Dream of  children they're crying
held by mothers' arms tight
and of fathers they're dying
in your war have to fight.

Hey man in the Kremin
are there still feelings inside?
Hey man in the Kremlin
have you been loved as a child?

Please try to remember
there was something in the air...
It was love, can you remember?

Lyrics from A Journal of Nonsense by Clay Young & Becky Coleman

Sick Real Sick

This is a song inspired by current events not about a current war but all wars ..the only way for the human race to survive is to try and live in peace and harmony and respect all living creatures..
lyrics
I dont want to live in a world like this
everyday on the outside getting hard to exist
running out of fuel ..they keep raising the prices
theres a war down in europe and i know we are in crisis
we need a solution/to put an end to all wars 
dont need these dictators or what they are fighting for
telling you and the others/how to live your lifes
all there dirty agenders on the edge of a knife

What if your country changed and lost its peace took center stage
and all the guns and arms were gone to love you all and sing some songs
WHAT IF ? there was no police and protests to take belief
surrender all ye fellow men lay down your arms and start again
dont let the weight of this world
rest on your fate or what you been sold

I dont want to see all this pointless suffering
dropping bombs and killing and nobodys gonna win
tell all the people its for freedom of the land
and the media machines are there to take your hands
Dont need these intruders/invasion of the skys
guns and blood and tears now /open up your eyes 
no care for environment. no fear takes the blame
all for gas and religion we dont think the same 

live together in harmony rest together in peace
respect every living creature try and find a release
lay down your arms my friend what you fighting for
theres no winners on the edge of abyss of a stupid war

I WANT YOUR SEX

Hiya Listeners, 😊
We wish every musician here on SoundCloud a Wondrous and Creative 2024!

❤️Love, 🕊️Peace, 🙏Respect

Here are the Liner Notes for this CD.

In the depths of musical exploration, where genre boundaries dissolve and creativity reigns supreme, emerges Shekinah Fire – a dynamic collaboration between improvisational pianist Gary Courtland-Miles and guitarist Tim Elliot. With their debut album, "Beyond Belief," they invite listeners on an exhilarating journey through a fusion of classical, jazz, and orchestral improvisational music.

Over the course of the past year, Courtland-Miles and Elliot have forged a partnership grounded in mutual trust, an unspoken agreement in spirit, and a fearless willingness to 'fall off musical cliffs together.' The result? Over 40 unique and passionately crafted compositions that defy categorization and transcend conventional reference points.

At the heart of Shekinah Fire's music lies a palpable sense of wonder, freshness, and authenticity. Each track unfolds with an undeniable sense of spontaneity, guided by the duo's intuitive connection and shared musical vision. Whether navigating intricate melodies or delving into soul-stirring improvisations, Courtland-Miles and Elliot infuse every note with heart and soul.

Recorded at "The Living Room" in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, "Beyond Belief" captures the raw energy and excitement of Shekinah Fire's live performances. Using only one stereo microphone, the album preserves the intimate atmosphere of the room, inviting listeners to immerse themselves fully in the magic of the moment.

Through a blend of electric and acoustic pianos and guitars, Courtland-Miles and Elliot weave a sonic tapestry that is as captivating as it is transcendent. Each composition is a testament to the duo's boundless creativity and unwavering commitment to artistic exploration.

So, dear listener, heed the call to adventure. Let go of preconceived notions and surrender to the spellbinding allure of Shekinah Fire's "Beyond Belief." For in the realm of music that is 'beyond belief,' there are no limits – only endless possibilities waiting to be discovered.

Notes for this tune:

Tim and I are back again with another of our Musical Conversations. I used my digital keyboard on this one so he could soar on his Telecaster! 😃

It takes a minute or so for us to feel our way into this one, but Tim really does soar on this track. 😉 

But really, it's such a Pleasure to Jam Live with someone who actually Knows How to Listen...  
                                                                                                          I'm so Thankful that Tim keeps showing up and letting his guitar Sing!   

 May you enJOY. 😊

Say What? - Frawstakwa & Paploviante

I was honored when https://soundcloud.com/graphicsontelevisions asked me to remake ‘Tattlesnakes’ from their fantastic album ‘Pun’. Maybe it’s the wildest one, unpredictable but coherent, it inspired me immediately !!

I've remixed to my taste their original studio stems (drums & keyboards), adding my own vocals, guitars & more... hard recommendation of headphones again !!

Lyrics are from another of my ancient poems, where I played with oxytone & eproparoxytone rhymes (translated below but with lost effect in English).

Full versions album here: https://soundcloud.com/graphicsontelevisions/sets/another-pun-a-brand-new
Downloadable: https://graphicsontelevisions.bandcamp.com/album/another-pun
I suggest checking out the original tracks too: @https://graphicsontelevisions.bandcamp.com/album/pun !!!

Letra  /  Lyrics:

Claro que ya no soy plástico,  /  Clearly I’m not plastic anymore,
ni estoy falto de razón,  /  nor lacking of reason,
puesto que, siendo simpático,  /  since, being friendly,
de sangre es mi corazón.  /  of blood is my heart.

Claro que soy esporádico  /  Clearly I am sporadic
en locos cantos espléndidos.  /  in splendid crazy singings.

Gritos de loco dolor,  /  Screams of insane pain,
llenos de mudo amargor,  /  full of mute bitterness,
claro que ya no son gélidos.  /  clearly are not icy anymore.

Claro que ya soy simpático  /  Clearly I’m yet friendly
y estoy falto de amargor,  /  and lacking of bitterness,
puesto que mi corazón,  /  since my heart,
siendo de sangre, no es plástico.  /  being of blood, is not plastic.

Y en mis cantos esporádicos,  /  And in my sporadic singings,
claro que ya no soy gélido.  /  clearly I’m not icy anymore.

Gritos de loca razón,  /  Screams of mad reason,
ya no gritos de dolor,  /  not screams of pain anymore,
claro que ya son espléndidos!  /  clearly are yet splendid!
