Great taste of a bit of modern swing really like the feel and lyrics . Great vocals Dirk 👍

it's some kind of crooner's tune, very fine

"Hero" is both a love song and a song about wanting to leave a mark somewhere, perhaps a legacy, however indiscernable it might be. It's about wanting to be something like a heroic presence for someone dear, at least in some way, at least for one person, to leave special mark on them. Leave a mark and be a part of what ever world comes after us, even if unseen. There's a lot more purpose to our story than what's here for us in the here and now. In some way it reflects on that, towards not so readily undervaluing our presence in this world, however limited it might seem at the time.

Nadine did all the hard work, from a production standpoint.  I'm basically singing, wrote the lyrics, the original song, and played a single instrument, whereas Nadine did the whole arrangement, wrote the chord sequence for the chorus (my original song had the bridge as the chorus), and produced the whole thing.

TO BLOOD

RETURN OF THE KING

Closet thing to a pop song I’ve made. Melancholic Pop?

DRANG

Opinions

Crawling on my stomach 
Over shards of broken memories
Some are clear and bright
Some so dark I can barely see
One so sharp it snags my shirt
Here it comes again
This is going to hurt
Some of my feelings 
Have been covered in dirt
I just know 
this is going to hurt
I didn’t come into this world
Quivering and shaking
I came out of this world
A life of my own making
It all goes by so fast
Are there clues in my past?
Some of my feelings 
Have been covered in dirt
I pull out my shovel
This is going to hurt

lyrics

On-Off
Are you On ,Are you Off
I'II dig it
You do you ,I’ll do you
I’ll dig it
Where do your feelings go？
Keep setting your mind in a good mood.
We just want to get feel good
Things you like
Set on it
Things you dislike
Set off it
The wall Is you
Break it down
I keep on 
I keep on 
I keep on 
I keep on 
I keep on 
I keep on 
I keep on 
I keep on 
On on looking for
What I want
Where do your feelings go？
Where do your feelings go？
We just want feelings good
We just want feelings good
We just want feelings good
Lalalalalala…
君onなのoffなの
ひっくり返そう
好きなようにやりなよ
僕はそうする
ひっくり返そう
君のマインドはどこに向かうの
いつもいい気分にセットしよう
僕たちが欲しいのは気分の良さ
君の好きを
Onにして
君の嫌いを
Offにして
邪魔してるのは自分だけ
壊すんだ
僕は欲しいものを探し続ける
僕たちはただいい気分でいたいんだ

On - Off(OVERDRIVE/featuring Khan)

Tones And Nothing More

And Then I Found You

I've been writing songs for ages and ages, because it's something I enjoy doing, and that's about it. 

I've added dates to titles, however, these aren't always dates recorded, mostly just dates written because the original offerings, back then, had little to be desired with consideration to production values and all that stuff!  For the older tracks some tracks have the old backing with a modern vocal (often with a lyric rewrite), the original vocal with a new backing (when I could work with the original vocal, but not the original backing), the original song newly recorded in all areas, and less often the original vocal and backing, but with a few additions, "No" is one such example.  Otherwise, most of it is newer stuff, post 2018, and is as is, when written and recorded.    

I've had to re-record some things on account of my abilities to record demos and all that being very limited once upon a time.  

In the early days I only had a Farfisa F1 workstation thing (it's amazing what I managed to do on that), later an Atari ST, with Cubase 2 probably, a Proteus 2000, and Fostek 8 track recorder thing, and now I've got Native Instruments 14, and Cubase 12, in what amounts to an astonishingly good set up compared to my earlier resources, for about the same money as that older rubbish was back then. 

I still use the microphone I've had since I was 18, though did just recently upgrade that as well, however still pick up and use the old one, as it's still good - a Sure SM58 with a dent in it! My upgraded mic is a Sure SM7B, which is great, and I see it all the time on TV and podcasts, so must have made a good choice! 

My musical chops are focused on the piano, my main instrument, and the ukulele, which I play a lot as well.  Not doing a lot of piano-orientated songs at the moment, but I do sometimes, and mostly try to get the best out of my Native Instruments stuff.  I'm barely scratching the surface with all of the NI stuff I've got.
