Chorus

And you knew there were no roads only a maze
Of all that you were not and could and should have been
They looked for you in the café, cemetery and church
They could not find you and we still have not found you yet

Verse 1

Death is forever and we sing to you with words
That moan and remember
A sad breeze
(Viento del oeste)

Verse 2

Let it be known that you have never truly died
You are the west wind
The shadow of our tears
(Sombra de lagrimas)

Verse 3

We have a thirst for newborn souls and laughter
Thirsty for new songs
That go to the soul
(Conciencia profunda)

Prechorus 1

Behind your eyes
Hermetic song
Breaks open seedlings
(Almanecer de flores)

Chorus repeat

Solo

Verse 4

You said things that go away never return
We respectfully disagree
Sing your restless wait
(Deseo anhelo)

Prechorus 2

Light that blinds
Arc of cry
Impossible to silence

Chorus repeat

Viento del Oeste

So much has happened in the World since I was last active on Soundcloud, nearly 3 years ago. The onslaught every day of so many people, animals and our precious Earth suffering, and no end in sight. I have been writing and painting how I feel, but my first recording is far from this, and of another time, a short, simple, and light offering for now.
I was born and raised in a small rural town that saw large amounts of snowfall in Winter, despite being the South of Scotland. We had plenty of hills to sledge down and no need to go to the Highlands. Through the years, in the many places I have lived in, my best walks were snow filled ones with the dogs, and in the mornings setting off when everything was pure and dazzling, and your whole body felt alive. The dogs would leap about so happy, and in turn affecting us, so that we were just as daft playing with them, totally energized! I give thanks for having had this.
This is for my beautiful wee Bridie, who died nearly 2 years ago.
Good to be with you all again on the Cloud!
Lyrics
Up with the lark and away we go
Treading so lightly in the snow
Skippin, and runnin, and jumpin so high
Scenting the air, as we touch the sky

Rollin and diving, and sliding away
Playing in a magical snow filled day
Skippin and runnin, and jumpin so high
Scenting the air, as we touch the sky

We play, all day, we play

Ooooh Ahhh
We're riding high today
Ooooh Ahhh
Love's shining all the way

This is a story of Captain Tod Carter who served in the confederate army. He was 22 when he was shot in a battle in front of his home. 

Lyrics:
Tod Carter was a captain who proudly wore the gray
From Franklin, Tennessee and raised the southern way
Captured while in battle by the Yankee  boys in blue
But from a moving train he found a window and jumped through

The Ohio and the Mississippi served him as a guide
Brought him down to Memphis where he didn't need to hide
Looking east to Georgia there amongst the Georgia pines
Was the 20th Tennessee just across the border line

The cannons opened fire and the deadly bullets flew
Brother fighting brother a nation torn in two
Blood was versing blood and lead was versing bone
In Franklin Tennessee, when Captain Carter came back home.

Back within the Rebel camp but there's a bloody job to do
Heading home to Franklin to run off those boys in blue
The Yankee lads were fortified but Tod carried the fight
When a bullet found the target and brought Tod to The Light.

Tod Carter met his fate that day but did not die alone
In Franklin Tennessee, by the house that he called home
In only Five short hours, more than eight thousand men killed
And the souls of soldiers gray and blue still haunt that battlefield

The cannons opened fire and the deadly bullets flew
Brother fighting brother a nation torn in two
Blood was versing blood and lead was versing bone
In Franklin Tennessee, when Captain Carter came back home

When Captain Carter Came Back Home

Hello Everybody!

For me, America was always the country which brought democracy and freedom back to Europe after the dark times of fascism and the horrible World War 2. Our strong partnership has ensured 80 years of peace in the western world. Furthermore, it was always a country of inventions. Technologically, but also culturally. I love American music.

It is extremely shocking to see how democracy is dying rapidly in the USA. It really can be compared with the events that happened in Germany in 1933. The democratic structures are getting shattered by a group of narcissists that are interested in the extension of their own power and wealth only. Millions of Americans got fooled by the lies and conspiracy theories of a man that is absolutely not interested in the well-being of his voters. Furthermore, he destroys the backbone of our common security by betraying his Allies. I’m sure Vladimir Putin can’t stop laughing since weeks.

All this makes me sick. As a therapy for myself I had to write this song.

But I can’t post this song without having a look on my own country, too. Here in Germany, we just had elections and the neo-fascist of the AFD got more than 20%! So, you guys in the USA are just one step ahead of us. And we really should know it better! But people are forgetting so quickly. The last people of that generation who know what fascism and war really mean, will be gone in near future. Like my 90-year-old mother, who lost her home by an air strike in 1945.

All that is very frightening. So, let’s fight for democracy, wherever you guys are! Stay strong!

Take care!

Thorsten

Lyrics:

What’s wrong with you America?
I felt you near, now you’re away so far
Have been there twice, much more to see
Don’t really know what do you mean to me?

You taught me Blues and Rock’n’Roll
Invented Jazz, Hip Hop, Country and Soul
Martin L. King and JFK
These days are gone and far away

What’s wrong with you America?
You lead the world into a massive disaster
Greedy Musk, narcissist Trump
Behave like kings, have made you dumb

What’s wrong with you America? (3x)
What is your way America?

America (What's wrong with you?)

For generations of Ukrainians, invaders have coveted the Donbas and failed to keep it.  The protagonist here is a teenager, fully aware of lost youth and clear as to his cause.

We heard them coming; it was just before dawn
We sent them running; it didn’t take long

I saw those soldiers charge through that field
My great grandpa knows how this feels 

	Yeah, this is the same land we defended back then
	Yeah, the steppes of Donbas will be freed again

Blood, smoke, and iron share the same smell
We just get used to the fragrance of hell

My sister’s been blind since she was 13
Those F-16’s are her Dancing Queens

	Yeah, we’re not playing no video game
	Yeah, grab some ammo and tell me your name

		Then you’ll see what we say
		We’ll have peace one fine day

Back in the woods where grandpapa died
Is a rusted old Panzer with some bones inside

I killed my first soldier only last Tuesday
They cross that border we make them pay

	Yeah, see the world through my gun scope	
	Yeah, check it out, it’s our best hope

DONBAS

Moonlight Mile/Written by M.Jagger&K.Richards/Performed by Uwe Lauterbach

Moonlight Mile (Rolling Stones Cover)

"Perfect Time" is a soft acoustic ballad that captures the sweet spark of young love—like golden light through cornfields and the quiet magic of a first kiss. Dreamy Rhodes piano, gentle guitar strums, and warm background vocals wrap around simple, heartfelt lyrics that recall a moment when everything just felt right.

But let’s be real: this track isn’t perfect—far from it. It started with me, a guitar, and a feeling. Then came the loops: drums, Rhodes, backvocals… one by one, like layers of a memory. It's raw, honest, and maybe a little rough around the edges—but that’s the charm. A moment, captured. A perfect time.

Perfect Time

So close to Robert is inspired by a lack of inspiration, a virtual Jupiter 8 synth, nostalgic ’80s procrastination, The Human League, a virtual Pianoteq, Paul McCartney, Bernard Edwards, a virtual vocoder, David Bowie, The Cure’s synthpop era, and the absence of the JX3P synth… But all of that is quite futile, so let’s dance.

So close to Robert est inspiré par le manque d’inspiration, un synthé Jupiter 8 virtuel, la procrastination nostalgique des 80s, The Human League, un Pianoteq virtuel, Paul McCartney, Bernard Erwards, un vocoder virtuel, David Bowie, The Cure - période Synthpop, l’absence du synthé JX3P… Mais tout cela est bien futile, alors dansons. 

🎙️ Verse 1
I’ve lost my way, I miss 
The sound of my old JX3P 
It’s been so long making 
My brand new virtual synth ring out
⸻
🎙️ Verse 2
I’ve lost my soul, my mind 
I’ve broken my voice, my guitar
It’s been so long making 
My brand new virtual guitar cry out
⸻
🎶 Chorus
So close to Robert, I hear a noise, I can’t hear notes 
So close to Robert, What will I do now? 
So close to Robert, I’ve got no choice, it’s out of date 
So close to Robert, What will I buy now?
⸻
🎙️ Verse 3
I’ve lost my quest for dreaming
Melodies like Paul McCartney 
It’s been so boring making 
My brand new virtual composer play
⸻
🎙️ Verse 4
I’ve lost my love, my friends 
Perception of reality 
It’s been so hard making 
My brand new virtual robot respond

So close to Robert
