MASS SHOOTINGS IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES
There have been 385 mass shootings in the United States in 2024, including at Apalachee High School, following a near-record number of mass shootings in 2023. No other high-income country has suffered such a high death toll from gun violence. Every day, more than 120 Americans die at the end of a gun, including suicides and homicides, an average of 44,341 per year. According to the latest available analysis of data from 2015 to 2019, the US gun homicide rate was 26 times that of other high-income countries; its gun suicide rate was nearly 12 times higher. Mass shootings, defined as attacks in which at least four people are injured or killed excluding the shooter, have been on the rise since 2015, peaking at 686 incidents in 2021.
I cannot imagine what it must be like to lose someone suddenly from a random act of violence. I wrote this song from the perspective of someone who is grieving such a loss. Having a moment of peace only to be interrupted again by the grief which turns to anger and then some resolve at the end. Unfortunately I just heard about another shooting by another scumbag stranger. God bless the victims and their families. I wish the inspiration for this song never occurred, but it has.

mass shootings is the biggest problem in the USA, but for some reason our political "leaders" do nothing about it and it just keeps happening.

Lyrics: 
they can't handle it lack of self control won't get away with it
reincarnation is calling on beautiful souls must put a stop to it
if I was warrior I would've taken it out before it had the chance
scum of the earth if I could have just gotten there first their lives would still remain
"leaders" are leading us to self destruction
heating and cooling since dinosaurs fucked up the earth
I want to dance with you underneath the trees before they get blown down
I want to take you to dinner across the street before the place burns down
my motorcycle just created a cloud
look twice for me I'm swerving inside and out
my music hits the chords and says the words that are not allowed
keep moving speed is soothing
birth of the oceans deep
I can't tell you but man if you only knew
not a thing we have done or that we can do
all this change is the same it ain't nothing new
since the birth of the oceans it has been true
damn rioters of the streets should have risen for the souls of the children, but not a sound, from anyone but Matthew (https://youtu.be/cJOw0XUyTQs), oh how horrific it must have been for them
keep moving speed is soothing
birth of the oceans deep
I can't tell you but man if you only knew
not a thing we have done or that we can do
all this change is the same it ain't nothing new
since the birth of the oceans it has been true
"leaders" are leading us to self destruction
heating and cooling since birth of the oceans
"leaders" are leading us to self destruction
heating and cooling since dinosaurs fucked up the earth

Who’s losing now
Who’s passed out on the floor
So lost since we’ve been found
The love is here no more 
Dizzy over hang
The in between’s a blur
I swear I was not wrong 
The fruit we ate was pure 
She was an angel
She was an angel strangled tempted by the demons’ escape 
I can’t breathe I break with every move you make
I can’t breathe I break with every sip you take 
I can’t breathe I break each vile a mistake
I can’t breathe I break it’s all that I can take the demons escape
I know, where does time go walked for miles passed right by ohhh she was an angel 
Who’s losing now 
The love is here no more

Electro 212

A small note on my own behalf: I have noticed that my playback figures have dropped dramatically. The statistics show that the number of playbacks has dropped from 2000 per week to just under 200.
On the one hand, this is frustrating, as everyone sees this as an indicator and confirmation of their work. On the other hand, figures are not particularly important, but one wonders what is wrong. In my opinion, SC has changed a lot, uploading tracks has become more complicated and constant security queries are annoying.
In addition, great artists are disappearing from the platform, partly by their own choice, partly because they have been banned, the algorithm has “recognized” them as spam and mercilessly deleted their account. I'm still a paying member, but my attitude towards this has changed...

Please let me know your experiences and impressions.

When I don't have the time to actively listen to my favorite artists on soundcloud, I just leave the stream running...while washing up in the kitchen, for example 😆

********************************************************************

A long, long time ago, there was an organ in the Christmas-decorated living room in his parents' house, where Frank grew up. Originally bought by his father for his two older siblings, they showed no interest in playing the organ. Frank, however, did. White and black keys and giving off strange sounds. 

So at the age of 9 he began to let his fingers circle on this instrument, searching for the right keys like on a typewriter. And another 9 years would pass before he could buy his first own instrument. Already at the age of 13 he made notes about the then current synthesizers, bought one magazine after the other and visited music fairs in Frankfurt, Germany.

His first keyboard was the Yamaha DSR-2000, which he bought in a music store near his hometown Biebertal. In installments! Finally he could develop himself further - away from the limited tonality of the small organ. The built-in 8-track sequencer helped him to reach unimagined heights. 
Little by little his equipment expanded and his ambition to create music like that of Jean-Michel Jarres came closer. Influenced by this and countless other musicians of the time, his interest grew, but he taught himself everything. Not even having attended a music school or being able to read music at all, he wrote one song after another and recorded them on the only medium available to him at the time: audio cassettes.
Many of these recordings are unfortunately lost forever, because cassettes are and were not the best recording medium. He has to try to play many of his songs from memory. 

In 2007, he fulfilled a long-awaited wish: to buy a KORG. He had always wanted to own one, but with the latest synthesizers at the time of their release having a purchase price of over 6000 D-marks (the currency of the time in the 1980s and 1990s), that dream of owning one was far away. So in 2007 he bought a used KORG 01W/FD at ebay. And as before with the purchase of the Yamaha keyboard, a completely new world opened up to him.

In addition, there were expanders and sound modules from Kawai, Roland and Yamaha (K1m, SC-55, QY10). Six years later his enthusiasm for making music ebbed and rediscovered his hobby (which it always was and still is). In 2018 in April he decided to present his music to a wider audience and uploaded his first song on the platform soundcloud. Since that time, thanks also to the ever-evolving software, he continues to evolve, experiment and relive his times through music.
