Great piano, with a background of sadness, but how beautiful it is :-) Nice production!

Got a very beautiful    Sadness to it...your piano playing is amazing..you’re very gifted.

glad I listened - a beautiful piece of music - those runs feel like people passing looking at the statues that can't move

Jolie ballade musicale qui s'installe dès le matin dans mon plaisir.

I'VE NOT ALWAYS BEEN HERE

Our Earth is beautiful and impressive. At the same time she is  vulnerable, sensitive and fragile. The modern piano nocturne “Placid Earth” by Andrea Tarantino  is a declaration of love to our Mother Earth. In a  mixture of fantasy and rationality he picks up all these characteristics and creates a wonderful atmosphere with his music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgKSfrKQrEM

Inside a forest it sang

This piece is for a small ensemble of six instruments (flute, bass clarinet, violin, cello, piano, and percussion). It is inspired by a popular Catalan song that has precisely the same title, in Catalan "A dins d'un bosc cantava". The lyrics of the song explain that "Inside a forest a cuckoo sang with great eagerness, from the top of a towering oak, calling his companion ...".  Thus, the starting musical material has been the melody of this song. Material subjected to various transformations. The most notable is in the melodic field and has been to "chromatize" the initial diatonic melody by incorporating the necessary notes to achieve the basic melodic phrase formed by all the notes of the chromatic scale. This melodic phrase has been the effective base on which the entire work has been built. However, I have not wanted to completely dispense with the initial diatonic melody, but it also appears at different times, but with careful treatment, using the complementary musical elements to achieve a sufficiently coherent result that would overcome the possible contradiction caused by the simultaneous presence of diatonic materials and dodecaphonic materials.

Randomization is another important element that appears in composition. I have tried to present a continuous evolution of the presence of a controlled randomness, obtaining three different phases in the course of the work. The beginning has a more chaotic nature and evolves towards a much more orderly and clear-cut environment to end in the last part that takes up the more uncertain and agitated aspect of the beginning but that definitively overcomes the initial disorder.

With this approach, I wanted to achieve a music that would maintain the naive, innocent and playful character that the initial song has, but trying to make a musical rereading that was more modern and with a few more doses of complexity. All this imbued with a festive and Christmas atmosphere, which would serve to congratulate the Christmas holidays this year, which is the pragmatic reason why I wanted to compose this piece.

A dins d'un bosc cantava

Well, this music was not created in an alcoholic state, but in a special free and improvisational mood. I used Moog and Arturia synthesizers, guitar and sound samples for it.

For the 31st Solar Kama Sutra song I decided to challenge myself a bit and do something in 7/4 time.  I tried remembering a band I heard do that and thought, "Isn't Pink Floyd's "Money" in 7/4 time?"  I remembered hearing it and thinking it was...

...  Turns out it is!  So for that reason I thought of Pink Floyd, and tried to do a Pink Floydish sound.    It's also a nod to Radiohead's "Pyramid Song".  I tried to capture the same feeling that song gives me, but with Solar Kama Sutra this time. 
(by the way, Solar Kama Sutra has always been just one person.  It's just the name for what I call the music)

Since Radiohead already used "Pyramid" which is well-known since ancient Egypt to be the coolest shape, I had to go with something else.  "Sphere Song" and "Cube Song" ?...  Well...  Those song titles just aren't gonna work....   Maybe "Dodecahedron Song"?....  Hmm... That actually sounds pretty catchy...  Feel free to use it!  

 My vocals are used more heavily on this track than it seems.  Throughout the track I tried to make my vocals sound like guitars and other instruments

  And definitely hats off to Pink Floyd for making a hit song in a 7/4 time signature.   How many times has that been done before?!

And of course, hats off to Stonehenge.  The ultimate inspiration for this track

lastly, much respect & love for all of you who have dropped by once again

Marche ( Extrait )

Five steps (each one with two parts) progressing along 3 minutes thru different styles: rock, psycho, pop, hard..., and finally back to the psychopoppy ones.

Letra / Lyrics:

No siempre he estado aquí (soy imperfecto) / I have not always been here (I am imperfect)

Cuando tengo frío, o tengo calor, / When I feel cold, or I feel hot,
cuando tropiezo, me quemo, o siento dolor… / when I stumble, I burn myself, or feel pain …

y  empiezo a pensar que no siempre he estado aquí, / and I start to think that I have not always been here,
y que todo en este mundo es ajeno a mí. / and that everything in this world is alien to me.

Pienso que este cuerpo / I think that this body
que me sirve para moverme / I use to move myself
no es todo lo perfecto que debiera. / is not as perfect as it had to.

Me siento extraño / I feel strange
donde tendría que estar a gusto, / where I should to be comfortable,
y me reconforto / and I feel better
cuando me relaciono bien con el mundo. / when I relate well to the world.

Empiezo a pensar en el tránsito; / I start to think about the passage;
que no siempre he estado ni estaré aquí; / that I have not always been nor will be here;
que mi vida es un entretenimiento / about my life being an entertainment
en el viaje a otro sitio. / along the trip to another place.

Y descubro lo profundo / And I discover the deepness
entre tanta superficialidad, / among so much superficialness,
si la meta de todo lo que hago / if the goal of everything I do
es comer y respirar, / is to eat and breathe,
¿qué clase de razón tengo en la cabeza? / what kind of reason do I have in my head?
¿qué soy yo dentro de este juego? / what am I within this game?

 descubro lo profundo / And I discover the deepness
entre tanta superficialidad, / among so much superficialness,
y me pongo a pensar, / and I start thinking,
y empiezo a pensar… / and I start to think …

y  empiezo a pensar que no siempre he estado aquí, / and I start to think that I have not always been here,
y que todo en este mundo es ajeno a mí. / and that everything in this world is alien to me.

Pienso que este cuerpo / I think that this body
que me sirve para moverme / I use to move myself
no es todo lo perfecto que debiera. / is not as perfect as it had to.

No siempre he estado aquí (Soy imperfecto)

commentary on street art

PAINT OR DIE

They say there's no culture? That's bullshit
look at the streets full of paint
I see drawn down to the asphalt
with all the faults the world takes for granted
I see the message clearly on the wall
announcing just how dark the future is
I see the lament in the wind
of the people that Tonantzing carries in her womb
I see and I see only if I concentrate
what is in the center what is what we carry inside
and fearlessly I go towards its encounter
and fearlessly I go and make the recount
as I see the subliminal alert
announcing us the terminal disease
and that is why today, with paint
I make Literature in the Architecture

I have in my hands a can of spray paint
and that is all I need to be in control
to create a language to put this message in the landscape
I'm going to draw a shooting star
hovering over the Bermuda triangle
I will draw a cross on the Atlantic
in the place where civilization died

Maybe its too many words
maybe all I mean to say is "abracadabra"
maybe I must bleed words of magic
because in words of blood is that magic is passed on
maybe it's true when we are dead
you are either awake or lost in the desert
maybe to reach port you don't require strenght
only excellent luck
maybe your orbit around the Sun
draws a beautiful ellipse until the eclipse comes
maybe it doesn't matter if life is short
but where it takes us
they say an image is worth a thousand words
and when you see this image you'll know
that I don't paint to be different
but because I have the instinct to survive

I have in my hands a can of spray paint
and it feels just like rock and roll and basket ball
I will draw a flower for you
in black and white so you imagine its color
I will paint a rose
and when it dies it becomes a butterfly
we have the original story
written in the spinal cord
so paint or die
until the end!
