Vancouver Project Final version

Some people questioning if I'm even cool
They don't know even just how much school
I missed, yeah I'm a lifetime platinum truant
When it comes to not knowing french I'm fluent

Yeah I am the best, I got 10k in NFT's
I wear black leather like Neo in a breeze
If you aint convinced then just wait for this hook
Been more than 5 years since I quit facebook
 
BEEN MORE THAN 5 YEARS SINCE I QUIT FACEBOOK
BEEN MORE THAN 5 YEARS SINCE I QUIT FACEBOOK
BEEN MORE THAN 5 YEARS SINCE I QUIT FACEBOOK
BEEN MORE THAN 5 YEARS SINCE I QUIT FACEBOOK

You know I got respect for my crew, LGBTQ
I tried real hard to get a rescue
Fred Durst sucks, Linkin Park was never good
I'll call the council if you litter in my neighborhood 

And you know I'm slappin' sunscreen even when it's cloudy out
When it comes to climate change got no doubt
I got 99 vinyls, only heard 4
I do all my first dates at a book store
 
And what about ben? do you even need to ask?
When I was doing 5 over he said I was too fast,
He's on a first name basis with the bar staff at his local pub
His favourite movie of all time is fight club

HIS FAVOURITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME IS FIGHT CLUB

Dorian Concept - Hide (30 minute lunch break cover)

Even Embers glow in the cold!

[Verse 1]
When the sky feels close, heavy and cold,
And the news is a weight we all bear,
I know your spirit’s been quiet and worn,
Fighting shadows in crowded air.
But look, how the moon still rises,
Through nights that seem long and wild,
Even in this dim, strange silence,
It’s okay to feel small, to rest for a while.

[Chorus]
Oh, the world can be rough, so relentless and bold,
Yet there’s warmth in the hands that you hold,
We’re a spark in the dark, just fragile and bright—
But together, we’re carrying light.
Remember, even embers still burn in the cold,
And our quiet strength speaks, though it’s rarely told.

[Verse 2]
We’re bound to these hours, so easy to bruise,
While headlines weigh down like stones,
But beyond every turn, a meadow still blooms,
In places the hard world never owns.
Trust in the change of the seasons,
In rivers that carve through rock,
They’re slower than words or reasons,
But they move us, inch by inch, step by walk.

[Chorus]
Oh, the world can be rough, so relentless and bold,
Yet there’s warmth in the hands that you hold,
We’re a spark in the dark, just fragile and bright—
But together, we’re carrying light.
Remember, even embers still burn in the cold,
And our quiet strength speaks, though it’s rarely told.

[Bridge]
You don’t have to mend all that’s broken,
Or carry the world’s heavy sigh,
Just breathe in the grace of each morning,
And trust there’s a dawn after night.
The simple things—sun on the sidewalk,
A friend’s laughter ringing clear—
They are here, they are real, they’re the guideposts
Through sorrow, through ache, through fear.

[Verse 3]
The state of the world may be restless and wild,
Yet even in darkness, we’re still part of light’s child.
Look to the trees as they bend in the storm,
Not broken but swayed, they weather and warm.
And maybe, one day, you’ll see clearer skies,
For now, let these words hold you, tender and wise.

[Outro]
For though we are fragile, uncertain, and small,
We’re bound by a hope, quiet but tall.
Together, we rise, a soft, steady might—
We’re the flickers that carry the light.
Yes, even the softest glow in the deep
Can shine, remind you, and gently keep.

It's The End Of The World 1

Hi all, so from 2016 to 2024 I assembled and produced a large collection of covers of many of my favorite tunes as my own hobby (and many during COVID lock-downs!) and I have accumulated over 2,800,000 plays across the world which is awesome!

I am much more of a producer that a musician. These first 8 years of my music was mostly based on midi cover tracks often downloaded from the Internet but heavily reproduced and re-imagined variously on my two Yamaha keyboards (Clavinova and PSR 975), but also using PC midi editing & DAW software.

Towards the end of that period, I added some of my more original electronic music which I produced over the past two decades under the name of Funkleberry in order to consolidate my Soundcloud accounts. 

But in 2024 I got into AI music generation and I am now  a freelance sonwriter and AI music producer. It's been a fun journey!

My first 4 AI Albums can also be found here:
