Voici "Life Is Full of Air", mon premier album. Teinté de voyages et d’intimité il est fait d’air et de chansons courtes en anglais et en français. 
Simplement, je me suis essayé à jouer l’air qu’il y a dans la vie qui me traverse. 

Chanson pour soigner

You know that sometimes things get hard 
but nothing's been easy, ever or lately
Your whole entire life, you've never been who you wanted to be
You call it a curse
They call it a disease
You waste all your time and money on therapy and weed
And everybody says you've got so much potential
They blame your failures on nature
Cause it couldn't have been environmental
But if it's in your nature, then what chance do you have?
And if you've got all this potential, then who you are right now must be bad.
You don't wanna be bad. But your whole entire life, you've never been who you wanted to be
And you call it a curse because you can't escape it.
You'll be fighting your whole life but you'll never be free
And it seems like nobody cares that you never wanted to be this
You never wanted to be this
Oh when it gets hard, you keep going by pretending there’s a light at the end
You can’t see it now, but it’s out there, just around the next bend
When it gets hard you keep going, because at least every step takes you closer to the end
And maybe you mean the end of here and now
Or maybe the light at the end of the tunnel is beautiful and final.
But it keeps you moving forward all the same
And you don’t really believe in anything, but out of desperation you pray anyway
Sometimes you plead with whoever’s listening for release or salvation
And sometimes you get on your knees and you beg for forgiveness for all of the times you gave 
in to your weakness
You tried to make a deal with the devil, but he must’ve known you didn’t have anything worth
taking
You wish on candles and stars and dandelion weeds
You pick up pennies you find in the streets
You look for answers in everything from scripture to self-medication,
But nothing ever answers your pleas

When they take your shoelaces away and you’ve got nothing left to lose

Till - Travellin´ light

from seanwaters.substack.com:

I’ve been on Summer Solstice Sabbath — just coming out of a three-week window of sacred down-time. Tree swings, swimming pools, and the songwriter studio, prototyping a PERMA-Cycle for Interpersonal Happiness Studies.  

Beautiful Questions: How could we collaboratively “demo” our creative gifts?  What if we embraced collaborative creativity as a lyric philosophy? 

A demo, to quote wikipedia, is “recorded for limited circulation or for reference use.” Demos are “seldom heard by the public.” Short for “demonstration” — a demo shows what a song might be. In the 80s, you record a demo to cassette in hopes of a record deal. 

Today, you might “sing the news” on TikTok. 

Or you might share a google drive folder with people you respect and see what happens. 

- - - - - - - - - 

To create a demo is to destroy a demo. 

You’re destroying the way it has been to make the room for something new. 

You’re destroying the draft to birth the revision.

You’re destroying what you thought you were making to make way for what wants to be born. 

When you produce a demo, it’s like you’re making a sand-painting. As soon as you’re done, if you’re lucky, you’re going to dump it in the river, and it will be reborn.  

.  . . . . . . . . . . . . . 

Sometimes I can’t let go of what I  love about a demo. We call it “demo-itis”: An attachment to how the song is now that prevents an embrace what it might be. 

This is a dangerous stance not only in music production, but also in long-term relationships with our lovers, our partners, our children, and ourselves. 

The trick, perhaps, is to accept celebrate what was, warts and moments-of-shining-brilliance and all, as a necessary aspect of what will be. Sometimes the demo (what was) makes the cut. But it’s healthy to let it go anyway, and trust that the well will refill. 

I always think of the Rick Rubin / Tom Petty sessions for Wildflowers, one of the all-time great albums: “half the songs they recorded . . . ended up on the cutting room floor.” 

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 

Producer ↔️ Artist  ::  Facilitator ↔️ Friend 

How is the relationship between a producer and an artist like a facilitator and their clients and friends?  How like teacher/student, and coach/coachee?

The producer : 

helps the artist let go of what was

helps the artist see (and hear) what could be

works to bring out the best in the artist

sets the condition to honor the artist, considers set and setting  

attunes to the artist in real time  

listens for where the vision resonates  

makes the creative lifecycle go a bit easier

When you’re the producer and the artist, things can get messy.  

Which is one reason I’m sharing these early demos, warts and all. With any luck, we’ll make a handful of these tunes into something beautiful that I could never make alone. 

This is the essence of creation, education, and wisdom: it's more collaborative than you might think.
