Top work, team - a project of which I'm very proud to be a part.  As regards Dan's lovely comment below - personally, I am capable of making a hideous soup from the finest ingredients in the oldest pots.  Fortunately for this meal, we had a Master Chef crafting the very finest consomme from some superb ingredients.  What's for pudding?

Seagull......you are a master soundsculptor my friend. Awesome work as always my friends👍

A beautifully musical primer to the realities of global water ecology. A great way to educate the world about its own existence, offering holistic truths.

Stunning atmosphere! Highly meditative, & I love the angelic vocals!  Mystically compelling! Standing ovation! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🎶💎♾🖖🏻

Wonderful narrative voice & insightful message! Water is so precious! Live in the desert & try pumping your own water & live off a transportable tank. It will make you respect calculating your water usage!  I know; I did it for a season!

Great track…..🌍☮︎👍🐞🍀2024

Les premières notes de cette chanson me sont arrivées en Mai 2022, juste après avoir composé "Même si tout s'arrête". Peut-être ce qui explique une certaine ressemblance dans la façon de les avoir construites, à savoir des accords de synthés vintage qui servent de support à la mélodie et une thématique parlant d'histoire d'amour. Mais la comparaison s'arrête là car les deux titres ont vraiment chacun un caractère et une identité propres qui les distinguent l'un de l'autre sans hésitation. 
Cette chanson est restée dans les cartons près de 1 an, avant que je n'écrive les paroles en Mai dernier, et que je l'enregistre. Ensuite mon ami Freddie de MTM Production a mis sa "touch" pour re-mixer et masteriser ce titre, en lui redonnant du punch et toute la dynamique nécessaire. Freddie, encore merci pour toute l'expérience et le temps que tu accordes à mes créations. C'est à mes yeux d'une valeur inestimable.
J'espère que vous prendrez plaisir à découvrir ce titre, au moins autant de plaisir que j'ai pu avoir à l'écrire et le réaliser. Comme d'habitude, n'hésitez pas à "liker" et reposter, c'est très apprécié et si important pour Freddie et moi!

The first notes of this song came to me in May 2022, just after composing “Même si tout s'arrête”. Perhaps this explains a certain resemblance in the way they were constructed, namely vintage synth chords which serve as support for the melody and a theme speaking of a love story. But the comparison stops there because the two titles really each have their own character and identity which distinguish them from each other without hesitation.
This song was in the works for almost a year, before I wrote the lyrics last May, and recorded it. Then my friend Freddie from MTM Production put his touch to re-mix and master this title, giving it some punch and all the necessary dynamics. Freddie, thank you again for all the experience and time you give to my creations. In my eyes, it is of inestimable value.
I hope you enjoy discovering this title, at least as much pleasure as I had writing and producing it. As usual, don't hesitate to "like" and repost, it's very appreciated and so important to Freddie and me!

Spleen de toi (Paroles de Richard Gonfrier)

J’viens encore de rêver de toi 
Que tu posais tes mains sur moi
Ma nuit n’a plus d’sens 
J’me réveille comme ça 

Je me retourne mais tu n’es pas là 
Je sais pas bien ce qui ne va pas
Je n’ai pour réponse 
Que des pourquoi

Refrain :
Mais je regarde les avions partir sans toi
Je te cherche dans tous les aéroports 
Je me perds dans le souvenir de ta voix 
Don’t go

Mais quand je regarde le ciel je te revois
Je ne l’ai pas réalisé encore
J’veux revoir ton sourire, j’ai le spleen de toi
Don’t go

J’écris des mots d’amour pour toi
Je crie mes maux que tu n’entends pas
J’me demande si c’est 
pas mieux comme ça 

J’aurais voulu être ton roi
Être ton vice et toi mon versa
Mais le temps qu’j’me lance
Tu es loin déjà 

Refrain :
Mais je regarde les avions partir sans toi
Je te cherche dans tous les aéroports 
Je me perds dans le souvenir de ta voix 
Don’t go

Words I never thought I would have to write.

The great eSyrup, Thom Palumbo has tragically left us.
I am heartbroken. He has been a frequent collaborator and loyal correspondent over the last ten years. When I play guitar, I think of him and whether he would like it. When I write, I imagine his reaction. And now he is gone. He achieved his lifelong ambition of returning to Maine to live over the last few weeks. I was so proud he had done it. I had hoped for more of his time, his music and his humour. An incredible man.

We never met, but we had an uncanny connection. This was done but not finished nearly six years ago, in December 2017. Life and stuff got in the way. Time was our only enemy and sadly a cruel one.

Please listen to his fantastic legacy here and appreciate his beautiful art

One of my fave comedy scenes in a movie is the "this poem sucks" beat poem in 'So I Married an Axe Murderer'. Written & performed by fellow Cannuck Mike Myers, the visual performance is as much of the fun as the lyrics. Here's my take (apologies for the vocal quality, which was recorded at different times & locations with just my phone mic). All instruments played by me on keyboard; I kind of like the realism of the snare drum brushes in particular. still needs practice tho. 
Hope you find this song "love...ed"  ;)

here's the original video from the movie:
