When he died
My Dad he left me
His guitars and his guns
And I
I couldn’t believe
That this day had really come
And the memories some long forgotten
Came flooding back In photographs
And your friends shared your stories.
I hope you heard, I hope you laughed

Dad I —-

You won’t be here in the morning
So we will climb toward your light

He was a mountain
He was a mountain
He’s my Dad

The last time that I saw him
I held his hand and said goodbye But on the day we spread his ashes
I swear I felt him by my side
I hope that he heard me
I hope he hears this song
And I hope heaven has guitars so that he can play along

Dad I —-

You won’t be here in the morning
So we will climb toward your light

Bridge
I can see when I close my eyes
We’re all learning how to live a life
Without you

Every waking moment you’re on my mind
It’s so hard to sleep at night without you

Yeah, we climb toward your light but
Texas stars don’t shine as bright
Without you


He was a mountain
He was a mountain
He was my Dad

He was a mountain
He was a mountain
He was my Dad

" ESCAPE "

There is a love greater than you have ever known. once accepted, never leaves "forever" 

Forever

Lullaby

Saga Of Love And Steel Feat. Kebras

The theme fo Beat Battles N°86 is "Modern Retro Synthwave". I build a classic(?) 80s synthwave track from samples outta my DAW, embedded 'The Chase' and the 'Vikings' from the offered samples into the intro, and added -- as totally modern aspect! -- a lady from SUNO as lead vocalist.

Lost Synth Melody

Lately I've been naming tracks after things I hear in my dreams. The phrase usually goes 'tomorrow is another day,' something usually said after a loss or when making a justification. But today is that day, when you think about it. 

Today Is Another Day

The 2nd of the Alpha Remasters which started in November 2024.
This for what originally was track #5 in early February of 2023.

Alphas are conceived as just very minimal hesitation-removal fixes where we are splitting and sliding edges and maybe some little little deletions of less than a second in judiciously picked places.

5A : Odd Little Ways, Parte The First (Alpha Remaster) released November 10, 2024

Benny and the Jets (Elton John instrumental cover)

Have you ever thought about 
Making your dreams come true?
Have you ever wondered
What's stopping you?
 
Is it your fear
Of doing something new?
Is it your convenience 
To leave your comfort zone?

Write down   
What bothers you and avoid it.
Write down what you like and enjoy it 
As long as you can,

Many people do not fight
To free themselves from their limits
A lot of people don't dare 
To move things that get them ahead.
  
Put all your courage together and try.
Take what's rightfully yours.
There's only one life that's too bad
To be spoiled by others.

And if you feel bad, take a sheet of paper 
And a pencil and write down what comforts you again.
Remember your childhood as it was  
When everything was easy and carefree.

Many people do not fight
To free themselves from their limits.
A lot of people don't dare 
To move things that get them ahead.

And who's responsible for things going the way 
You want them to?
And who's responsible for things going the way?
It's only you
Remember your first girlfriend how wonderful it was 
When you first kissed and touched her.
All these beautiful things are gifts of life 

Many people do not fight
To free themselves from their limits.
A lot of people don't dare 
To move things that get them ahead.

It's You

Dizzy O’Brian creates Dizzy Rock — a fusion of Third Stream music, alternative rock storytelling, cinematic grooves, and surreal narrative worlds that make each track feel like a scene from a larger universe.

Composer, producer, and world-builder, Dizzy blends classical structure, jazz energy, alt-rock riffs, and fantasy-sci-fi imagery into music that feels both futuristic and mythic.

Inside the Dizzyverse, every piece has a story:
• Secrets of the Heart — a psychedelic six-movement rock suite
• Tea With the Alien — cosmic chamber-rock
• A Night in Appalachia — string-driven, dreamlike Americana
• The Electra Suite — classical drama reimagined through alt-rock
• And new singles every week, from ambient alt to narrative progressive rock

Dizzy’s music appears in short films, narrative videos, AI-enhanced visual stories, and the ongoing multimedia sagas The Oath of the Dreamers and The One True God.

If you like story music videos, cinematic alt-rock, experimental fusion, concept albums, and genre-bending sound worlds, you’ve found your new obsession.
