**Verse 1**  
Sitting on the pier, watching waves collide,  
Listening to the ocean, feeling peace inside.  
The sun dips low, painting skies in gold,  
In this moment with Josie, my heart’s story unfolds.  

**Chorus**  
Oh, Josie, you’re my light, my sweet serenade,  
In the morning glow, your smile won't fade.  
Every whisper and laugh, every touch, every glance,  
With you by my side, I just want to dance.  

**Verse 2**  
I’m a night person, but you shine so bright,  
Your laughter’s the melody that carries me through the night.  
As the stars come alive, I hold you near,  
With every breath taken, I wish you were here.  

**Chorus**  
Oh, Josie, you’re my light, my sweet serenade,  
In the morning glow, your smile won't fade.  
Every whisper and laugh, every touch, every glance,  
With you by my side, I just want to dance.  

**Bridge**  
Underneath the moonlight, we’ll make our dreams soar,  
Hand in hand forever, who could ask for more?  
In the quiet of twilight, I’ll always be near,  
With you as my anchor, I have nothing to fear.  

**Chorus**  
Oh, Josie, you’re my light, my sweet serenade,  
In the morning glow, your smile won't fade.  
Every whisper and laugh, every touch, every glance,  
With you by my side, I just want to dance.  

**Outro**  
So here on the pier, as the waves roll and swell,  
With Josie by my side, everything's just swell.  
In every moment shared, love’s gentle embrace,  
Forever in this dream, we’ve found our place.

I’ll Find My Place

He stood for truth and stood it strong,
A steady flame, but not for long.
The world turned cold, but his light stayed bright,
A spark of hope in the darkest night.

Goodbye, Charlie, your fire won’t fade,
Your name rides the wind, in the prayers we’ve made.
You showed the way when the world was clouded,
Even in silence… you make Heaven crowded.

The streets feel empty, the sky feels wide,
A voice now gone, but the echoes abide.
The world feels smaller without your sound,
But your dream of light keeps circling ’round.

There’s an ache in the air where your laughter should be,
A hollow in hearts, a silence so deep,
The night holds its breath… the stars seem to weep.

Goodbye, Charlie, your fire won’t fade,
Your name rides the wind, in the prayers we’ve made.
You showed the way when the world was clouded,
Even in silence… you make Heaven crowded.

Goodbye, Charlie… you make Heaven crowded.

Goodbye Charlie (You Make Heaven Crowded)

Princess Amazing * folk guitar and voice.

Adagio Techno

Matic Soundtrack

A lonely hour, a windowpane,
I saw you walk through pouring rain.
Your fragile hands, your worried face,
You’re lost in time and lost in space.
I felt a calling, soft and deep,
A secret that our souls would keep.

Oh, the signs you send to me.
A glance, a word, a mystery.
A subtle sign, a fragile art,
A silent language of the heart.
Oh, the signs you send to me,
A future we – we cannot foresee.
A game of hope, a gentle plea.
Oh, the signs, the signs you send to me.

We talked of things we can't explain,
Of endless skies and bitter pain.
You never saw my lonely fear,
You only saw what wasn't there.
A world of wonders, veiled in doubt,
A secret we can't live without.

Oh, the signs you send to me.
A glance, a word, a mystery.
A subtle sign, a fragile art,
A silent language of the heart.
Oh, the signs you send to me,
A future we – we cannot foresee.
A game of hope, a gentle plea.
Oh, the signs, the signs you send to me.

The fear of closeness, strange and new,
The silent longing, me and you.
A sudden touch, a gentle tear,
The end of waiting, always near.

And the signs you send to me,
Set our souls finally free.
The mystery is solved at last,
We’ll leave our lonely silent past.
Oh, the signs you send to me,
The future's ours for all to see!
I'm finally yours, a clear bright sign.
This love is real, and you are mine.

"Redder" is a palindrome. Like "racecar" or "level". These pieces of music ain't.

My name is Volker Redder, online I go by "docredder." It all came about because I studied biology and computer science for a long time and received my doctorate as the crowning achievement of my academic career.
As a child, I sang Bach in the church's „Knabenchor Unser Lieben Frauen“ because my mother thought it was good for my soul. And it was, until, thanks to an excellent teacher, I realized that music is like mathematics. After that, I loved not only music but also mathematics and all sciences based on mathematics: physics, biology, chemistry, computer science. So, I went straight into the natural sciences and engineering. Yes, I studied a lot. However, a university career wasn't for me. I wanted to monetize the findings of the various sciences (you can't live on air and love alone) and founded over a dozen companies. Because who wants life to follow a clear formula? I certainly didn't. In addition to adventurous entrepreneurship, the subsequent career in politics (German Bundestag), and a growing family, I was constantly picking up the guitar or keyboard, which is what you do when you want to escape the chaos of everyday life.
Should I say I'm a virtuoso? No. That would be a lie. I'm just too lazy for that. Laziness, or in modern parlance, "efficiency," is a principle for me. And so I founded my "own studio," consisting of a lot of electronics and software. The hipsters call it DIY. I call it "not wanting to act like a big shot and book expensive recording studios." I'm a one-man orchestra, a chef-d'oeuvre who spends all day producing pop, rock, indie, and ambient mishmash until he finally finds it he likes. My menu? Pink Floyd, Genesis, Supertramp, Muse, Zappa, Miles Davis, and many more. Yes, all at once. I told you: mishmash.
There are guys who write music to become famous. Then there's me. I write music to keep myself from going crazy. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes there's melancholy in it, sometimes it's stories from literature or something sci-fi. Or from Tinder dates my daughters have told me. I mean, who hasn't wondered what "being in Tinder light" is? Exactly. I wrote it down. I use everything I can get my hands on: GarageBand, samples, my voice, AI voices, Udio, VirtualDJ, everything! I don't care if purists say it's no longer art. It doesn't matter, the main thing is that my music feels like a window you can look out of and discover something new again and again.
Every song becomes a little adventure. Sometimes I start with a line, sometimes with a feeling I can't shake. It's like an escape from reality, except in the end, there's no escape. And that's a good thing. This is how I stay grounded. Okay, grounded isn't the right word either. Let me put it this way: I've stayed true to myself. And I'm grateful for everyone who listens, shares, or comments.
It makes me feel like I'm not completely alone in this madness. So if you also like songs that don't follow the rules, I'd be happy if you joined in. After all, the world is crazy enough.
You have to fight that with music. I mean, that's logical, right?
