Beautiful. I like how your synth emulates the cats and the jarring real cat sound.

awesome track with great cat vibes! meow! 😺

different to most of your work, melodically very beautiful.

What´s Wrong With Me

I've tried to capture the building tension and heart racing fear towards the end of the Ann Leckie's "Ancillary Justice". It involves a space shuttle, an airlock, an oxygen tank, a hero and two "baddies" trying to get in.  I didn't find it easy but I enjoyed the effort! 
The guitar parts were played on a Duesenberg Paloma through a modern metal amp using vintage style tube distortion and echo delay. The bass was played on a Fender Jazz Bass, relatively clean...

At night all cats are gray, also By night all cats are gray, is a proverb that is an adapted quote from Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616). In addition to Spanish, the proverb is also used in German, English and French.

Literally, it means that the daytime vision of people, that is, the vision in sufficient brightness, is differentiated, while dusk leads to the fading of all colors. Therefore, without daylight, all colors appear similar to the human eye. Proverbially, it means that the differences between people, status, and ideas (negative or positive) are less discernible under certain circumstances and are therefore of no importance.

What Do Cats Do At Night? (They're gray!)

Character created by Rob and art by Masha. It is the character Riven's theme song and will be on the album 'Realms'. 

Rob: "Riven is a scientist who's on the brink between genius and insanity. He is from our Parallel Tales series, specifically the second story 'They Call Me A Thief'."

Our guest drummer here is Tot. from Japan who we think did an excellent job (Thanks, Tot! Really fun drums and a great fit for our song)!! Here's a link to Tot's page: @tot-beat

A vocals version is in the works. A tidbit about the song: The sound effect at the end was purely accidental, but we decided to keep it as we felt that it fits the story.

We hope you enjoy this surprise collaboration. Thanks for listening!

Diplomacy 
Could Easily
Stop World War 3
Complacency
And Idiocy
Could Wipe us out
Why can't you see? 

I don't want your nuclear bomb
I don't want to be on the run
Blown to kingdom come
Be a number in your sums

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 😆

By the way: this user-92853963 was my old link address and leads to the empty.... I AM NOT A ROBOT!

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

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.
