This is an extract of the music that goes with the 4th chapter of the tale I'm writing. I just published it here: https://ariad-music.com/textes/aventures-petit-personnage-sans-tete/chapitre-4-danse/ It is in french, but I guess google translate or deepl can do a decent job for translating. This is the story of a headless character who explores the world of dreams in order to find again his head. In this fourth chapter, he's abandoned by his companion the creative bird and will be ordered to work, like everyone else! This music is quickly made using simply MIDI/VST tracks.

This song was created as a result of a musical collaboration with Ed Bejzak (also known as @getupbass on soundcloud).

Enjoy the music and Thank You for listening. Your continued support is most appreciated!!

Lyrics

Even Fail
By Ed Bejzak and David Husted

V1
Wave sharpens
As it readies to pound
Under ocean canopy
Once again smooth
A tired refrain

Ch      
You can jump
I'll be there
I will be your safety net
You can jump
Even fail    

PreVs
V2
Crackle of fire
drizzle of rain 
cold and distant thunder
Now silence
Again and again and again

Ch2
You can jump
I'll be there
I will be your safety net
You can jump
Even fail    

V3
Falling, floating
Air rushes past
Sensation unfamiliar 
All stop 
Never and ever again  
Ch2
You can jump
I'll be there
I will be your safety net
You can jump
Even fail    
Outro

The Treehouse

I'm hoping this will cut it as the first track on an album inspired by Asimov's Foundation novels.
I used a Gibson 335 Memphis for all the guitar parts.
The cover is from a Catalonian edition of the book and is by Guillem H. Pongillupi; find him on Artstation and Pinterest.

Foundation (Prelude)

Collab with Her Musical Highness Damga, based on a sequence of melancholic chords and an Electric Piano bridge.
Lyrics:
"Waves of Isolation, I sink in the ocean of your venomous dreams.
In the cold dark water, I wake up to the beauty of your abyss.
There is a shark looming from the depth. 
My lateral line sense its fluid moves, as I crave for his kiss.

Waves of evolution, I emerge from the amniotic fluid of time.
I walk on the primordial sea shore, toward the dereliction of dawn.
Your crawling monsters follow my footprints on the dark sand.
I cherish my last scales and the iridescent mark they’ve drawn.

Waves of civilization, the ancient realm rise from the ground.
I ride the marble streets followed by soldiers and priests.
The glory of my victorious spear shines in the dawn of civilization.
Following my undefeated army, come the prisoners and the beasts.

Waves of emotion, I shiver under your photonic chords
Lost in the maze of counterpoints, I behold the astral serenity  of your hymn.
Sensual melodies electrify my spine and linger on my lips
I bite in the flesh of sounds, bath in the fragrance of rhythms

Waves of sublimation, triumphant and aroused, I wake up from your dream.
Your body besides me is warm and still,  gently breathing in a silver slumber.
I curl up in your warm naked strength and savor the scent of your skin.
An the night flowers, heavy with dew, weep for desire, drop by drop silently."

Waves of Sublimation

Waves Of Sublimation (Damga & HyLGZ22)

1年半くらい前からピアノを練習しています。
「これなら弾ける!!ジャズ・ピアノ」という本に載っていた、北島直樹さんが編曲した「Moanin'」にチャレンジしました。これは昨年録音したものです。
ちょっとミスっています(^^;)
ここを発表の場にして、もっと上手くなっていきたいと思いますのでどうか応援してください(笑)

I've been practicing piano for about a year and a half.
I tried ``Moanin''' arranged by Naoki Kitajima, which was featured in the book ``You Can Play This! Jazz Piano''. This was recorded last year.
I made a little mistake (^^;) 
I would like to use this as a place to make presentations and become even better, so please support me (lol)

Cover - Moanin' (Arranged by Naoki Kitajima)

Have you watched the movie of Gadzilla minus one?
Awesome!!

This song was inspired with the movie.

Enjoy!

Up Front

This song highlights vulnerable moments in time. Like looking through a glass at your own life and assessing it.

Insignificant

I wrote this track in 2009 ,It was a period of great inspiration for me, 
many influences are present in this piece, primarily one can hear Rock Progressive sound, the title track is my thought about war and the central meaning is, one can think of winning against the enemy, but the reality to understand is  "who really started the conflict and why ?"  and at the end of war who is the real winner ? perhaps not those who fought for it.
I hope You like It and if so share It as soon as you can :-)
