Music, Lyrics, Organs, Bass, Drums, Vocal: Jan Schonander @thegats

The origin to this song is a guitar track by REKHA. I added som organ, synth bass and a keyboard played drum track as well as wrote lyrics and sang the underlying male vocal. REKHA finished it all off with the lead female vocal. This is long, but we do hope you enjoy listening.  And for all of you smokers and ex-smokers, you know what I'm talking about at the end...

FLAMES OF MY DESIRE

I can see 
I can feel
I can see you
I can feel you
Without you
I can feel you
Without you
I can be

I can see where you are
I can see where you’re going
I can see where you’ve been
I can feel what you want
I can feel what you need
I can feel your attraction
A chemical reaction
I can be your one and only fire
Your singular desire
Throw oil on the fire
Feed the flames of my desire
The flames of my desire

I can love
I can love
With you
Within you
I can be

I can drown in your scent
I can love your body
I can feel your reaction
I can lose my head
Be your one and only fire
Your singular desire
Feed the flames of my desire
Flames of my desire
Flames of my desire

I light up a cigarette
Open my window
I let out the steam
Signs and tells on the floor
The glow
The embers
The flames of my desire
The flames of my desire
The flames of my desire
The flames of my desire

Flames Of My Desire

Petite musique improvisée et finalisée en 5 heures sur mon synthétiseur Roland Jupiter XM, un petit clin d’œil au Roland D50  Avec son fameux son "Staccato Heaven" qui a été énormément utilisé à la fin des années 80 par de nombreux groupes, comme Confetti's, Foreigner, Pacifique ... et Cyril MENDEZ ☺ en 2014 ici  https://soundcloud.com/canm/the-blue-moon

Staccato Heaven

Like iridescent clouds connecting the sides of a deep valley in the mountains, musical notes and phrases that Resonate like thoughts and feelings can bridge the Unfathomable Dimensions of this Wondrous Universe. 
We just need to Slow Down... and take the first step.


Improvised, Arranged and Mixed by Anomon

Inter-Dimensional Flow

I bought this children's guitar at GoodWill for less than $15... I put $6 worth of good nylon strings on it.  And then I just played it.  Maybe I'm out of line... especially since I set the levels too high when recording it.  But there's something about this recording: I guess beauty is in the ear of the beholder...

For everyone who wants change. This one will get you going thats for sure. 
For the new Generation, Don't be afraid...

New Generation

Inspired by a painting I saw in a Dundee gallery called Christ and the two Disciples on the Way to Emmaus. What got me was the look of astonishment on the disciples faces as they realised their travelling companion was the resurrected Christ.

Road to Emmaus

Road to Emmaus (acoustic)

Look at this space
A void of no consequence
A measure of indifference
A hollow existence
Flood light into this space
Bright light
Fill this space with sound
Sweet sound

Lacuna

He is truly gone

I am a finger-style guitarist living on the Texas high plains.  At the core of my music is melody that is inspired and informed by my Christian faith, family, friends, and countless influences through the years from the great composers, to jazz, folk, rock, Latin, Celtic, and the many fine musicians I have come to love on the Cloud, some I have been privileged to collaborate with.  Thanks for stopping by to have a listen. Comments are always welcome. Feel free to click on the picture of any track to learn more about it.
