[Rough translation]
FOR THE SAKE OF A QUIET LIFE*
In the mirror she sees her mother
In the mirror she sees her husband
She sees her brother
She sees her father
As in an interrogation
Their eyes a blinding light
They ask no questions
They see through her 
and judge
They form the reflection
Of her appearance
Where she herself 
Has disappeared

For the sake of a quiet life
She tucks her thoughts
For the sake of a quiet life
She tucks her mind
For the sake of a quiet life
She tucks her feelings
For the sake of a quiet life
That has never been quiet

Every day she’s thin and modest
Every day she’s nice and smart
Makes herself useful
Being everything for everyone
She is who she thinks
They want her to be

She is who she thinks they want her to be
She is who she thinks they want her to be

Once she colored outside the lines
Danced and sang as if no one was watching
While playing she saw boundaries disappear
And her curiosity won over fear
Now she dares not to choose herself
She is guided by other people's taste
Love and friendship, you can lose
So she adapts and she perfectly fits
She is really perfect

She can't find the courage
She does what she always does

For the sake of a quiet life
She tucks her thoughts
For the sake of a quiet life
She tucks her mind
For the sake of a quiet life
She tucks her feelings
For the sake of a quiet life
That has never been quiet

She is who she thinks they want her to be
She is who she thinks they want her to be

* Literally translated it is: for the sake of sweet peace
(that has never been sweet).

Om de lieve vrede

OM DE LIEVE VREDE (mastered)

A Sunday hardware jam with the Akai Force, Novation Peak and the Elektron Analog Four, Digitakt and Digitone.

This time around a relaxed downtempo breakbeat song. What do you think, do you like it? Let me know in the comments.

Video of the jam session can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/a0TTh2t7dU8

Slow Fuzz

Slow Fuzz (Hardware jam)

First of all a very happy new year!!

This song was made for the planned tutorial series in 2022 on my YouTube channel.
The premise is that in these tutorials I'll be using another device from my setup in addition to the Akai Force and doing a live jam on it, then showing how I've set up and arranged everything, both in the Akai Force and the device I'm using next to it. I'll go over the different parts like the track configuration, effects, the crossfader, or anything else I used for the live jam. Each video will be different and the genre of the jam will be adapted to the device I use or at least how I use it.

I'm curious what you think of the song.
