"Said And Done"

Daniel Lea as L A N D . Mastered by ben frost

demos etc

nothing is happening everywhere

This is a mystical song allusive to Time Travelling.
It was based on real Electric guitar feedbacks and synthesizers to build up a powerful musical creation.

Going Through Time

from psych-ward west, aka nine horses, an idea kicked around on a clear day in 2004 that wasn’t developed further. this live take/raw mix is, i believe, all that survived. the last sketch from the nine horses sessions.

isn't that me?

My rendition piano & voice of Mel Tormé's THE CHRISTMAS SONG
Merry Christmas to you ...

THE CHRISTMAS SONG - Gilberto Bermúdez

David Sylvian & Hector Zazou - A Victim Of Stars (Klaus Olsen's Spellbound Remix)

This is my cover of a song by Film School.  Greg Bertens, the original songwriter, explained to me he wrote it during a period of self doubt.

Here we go again
the primal dark is on your rose
restless in sleep you fight to keep
the world you know

The past has gone silent
you throw your head, try to remember
you'll do anything but flap your wings
lazy and grounded, wounded

You give away your precious gold
you criminal
you lose your blood in torrents on the floor
need I say more?

You lay home at night
alone inside your head
screaming rebellion
reaching, fruitless, never

Shaking, desperate in the dark
you look for love, you look for a way out
bird in the cage, you know it's time to lose your mind
lose your mind
lose your mind
lose your mind...

Notes: Winston Smith is the protagonist of George Orwell's classic novel, "1984."  He's a government employee who spends too much time alone, alienated and disoriented by "The Party's" relentless propaganda.  He dreams of the Party's downfall while searching for the last piece of his humanity - someone to love.

Thought Criminal

If we survive tonight we'll be best friends
If we survive tonight I'll take you anywhere you want to go
If we survive tonight then we'll be lovers
If we hold the light we'll hold the night

We hold the night
We hold the night
We all have faith
We all need love
We want to reach the stars above
We hold the night
We hold the night

The world is crashing down around our ears
people outside are screaming faces red and full of tears
monsters roam the streets, it's raining fire
televisions stoke our primal fears

We hold the night
We hold the night
We all have faith
We all need love
We want to reach the stars above
We hold the night
We hold the night

Will you be my friend until the end
Will you hold my hand until the ever-stinging-bitter end
What lies and tortured fates will we overcome
Will our love endure beyond the sun

We hold the night...

The inspiration for this song came from "Young Folks" by Peter Bjorn and John... I wondered what that song would be if the monsters from "Cloverfield" were running round outside...  The second verse is a direct reference to the Parkland Highschool shooting and the scourge of gun violence in the US.

We Hold the Night

We Hold The Night

Roman(us) are:
*Felix Duque-voice, keys, sampling, programming
*Jose R. Duque-drums, keys, sampling, programing

The debut release, The Secret Lives of Trees, from Roman(us) is an innovative, eclectic and impressively cohesive collection of tracks that leaves listeners feeling deeply satisfied ear to ear, head to toe. This well-balanced team of two has generated 13 mood-inducing tracks; each one distinct and engaging -some pulsing with purpose and very bold and animate; some are more dark and earthy; and some are fluid even vaporous in feel. All have a sound so rich and emotive that it becomes an almost visual experience. This is not a surprising quality coming from two film-loving artists! In fact one of the tracks is included in an artistically motivated documentary, Landscapes in a Truck -a film by Andres Duque. 
Taking advantage of technology and timing, J and F Roman finally joined forces as ROMAN(US) to bring The Secret Lives of Trees to life. .. ....Partnering Across the Atlantic.... .. This project, with the help of some key advances in technology, provided an opportunity to explore a new and engaging process to create an album remotely. With F in Barcelona, Spain and J here in the US - 'passing' tracks back and forth created a unique dynamic which pushed their spontaneity and creativity to new heights. Other than not physically not being in the same room while working, and the time change, the challenges were surprisingly few, and the excitement stayed high as each wondered what the other would do to each piece in progress! Staying in constant communication was not only necessary for this creative process to work, but was also fun, inspiring, and very satisfying for two cousins who balance each other so well musically, professionally and personally. With J's structured and intimate knowledge of arranging pieces and harmonic and theory concepts -and F's natural talents for melodic mastery -this team of two is a perfect match! This is just the beginning of the electronic excellence to be heard from ROMAN(US)... ....Growing up and making music..... ..J and F grew up together in Caracas, Venezuela actively playing together in typical high-school style garage bands for several fun-filled years. With J on drums and F on vocals, and others joining in youthful explorations inspired by various After high school, as is the common right of passage, diverse interests, college careers, individual musical projects and busy lives beckoned -and though always staying in close touch, their joint musical ventures went on an extended hiatus J attending Berklee School of Music and F heading to Barcelona, Spain where he played in a variety of rock bands and began his work in the film industry. .. ..J and F had long-wanted to do a project like The Secret Lives of Trees. Until now, the many miles between Portsmouth, NH and Barcelona Spain, along with myriad independent projects and very busy lives were hurdles too big to jump to make this project happen, despite the long-held desire. At long last, their availability and the advancement of (music software and internet) technology has aligned with their passion and ability for working together. The years of conversations about teaming up again to make music along with a little additional inspiration from the RPM Challenge have finally brought them, and us, to this moment. They've done it, and done it well. And it wont stop here -stay tuned for more from ROMAN(US) coming soon.
