Description: Industrial drums with noisy ambient and sax solo

Scary image to go with this experimental recording! Love it!  Provocative! Enjoyed hte sound management you demonstrate in this production, from the droning to the bass thumping, space management too. How you begin to choose what sonic element to add, merge, blend, remove, when, is all such an enigma to me. Well done maestro!

a little ditty about Jack and.... no wait that's  not it

Years ago, my brothers and I had spent several weeks getting my dad's house ready to sell after he had passed. I was in the realtor's office ready to sign the paper work when the prospective buyers asked why I wasn't buying the house I grew up in.  I said (not thinking) "Too many ghosts".  The realtor immediately jumped in and said, "he means memories" to which I smiled confirming the needed clarification:)  It does beg the question however, how many "ghosts" haunt our lives; bad decisions, fractured relationships, things we did or failed to do.  I have found hope and forgiveness in the Christian faith, others have found healing in the passing of time, others still carry a heavy burden of what could have been or should have been.  Peter explores the theme in poignant verse to Seagull's quixotic soundtrack.  I am honored to  contribute a few colors to the tapestry;)

Ghost of a Sense:

Yes, I know you.
I can feel your presence.
I can touch you, smell you.
I see you not by sight of eye
And yet I ken that you are I
That vespered wraith that writhes within
To test my faith, try my sin
Push the bounds to cause offence
A moral, soul thing, ghost of a sense recalls myself, so well defined
Entrenched, walls behind, built so sound of dust that crowned the pity, falling soft amiss,
Deep inside the tears I cry as here I find my self-abyss.

Whispers bringing shadows, filled of secrets therein held,
Memories, morose, piece me still, to wear in time, my wasted face.
And now reside, cast aside, to forge and ever meld,
Of haunting, ringing echoes, that will alone their chime erased.

Ah! But you won't twist me, nor bind me fast, to the sandy doctrines of the misty past,
With its beards and staffs and crinkled testaments.
My future's sprinkled here present with your crass irrelevance and matters not that sat right there,
The blackest chasm in my simpling world so spare,
Where space and time have overspilled the leaking psyche of a crippled mind,
That barely copes, unfulfilled, a crooked, limpid moral health of broken shrines
That hopes to find ....
.......some worthwhile inner self.

Ghost of a Sence (Seagull, Peter, David)

Time for a Change-up to a recent New Classical Piano Improvisation that captures the light and refraction of the tones that come in and out of focus as the music flows.

May you enJOY.

Spirit (2025)

Seven years ago, Oddrun and I released a beautiful collaboration titled “Smile” — a heartfelt reinterpretation of the timeless theme from Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times (1936) 🎬.  Born from a melody that once underscored silent emotions on screen, our version gave it a new voice — tender, human, and full of light.  For some reason, it never made its way to my SoundCloud page… until now. It feels like the right moment to share this piece again — a little fragment of beauty we both cherished.
 I hope it touches you as it once touched us. ✨

Lyric:
A candle in the dark
And in your own fashion
You burned it to the ground
Its sad but it's true
I can't get over you
I'm trying to breath 
But I'm choked by the fumes
Set me free
I'm just trying to breath
Let it go
Cus I can't keep hold
If I told you that I love you
Would you let everything slide
If I told you that I want you
Would I run and hide?

If Only I Could

I wake up completely paralyzed
Wasted from an endless night
Dream pictures fading on my mind
I try to bury them deep inside

All my plans are build on sand
Almost leading me to a dead end
Sometimes you treat me like I´m not there
It hurts so much but you don´t care

If only I could...stop the cold inside of you..if only I could..stop the cold...
If I could fill your heart with love

IF ONLY I COULD....IF ONLY i COULD....
FILL YOUR HEART WITH LOVE !

.....Ohhh  hypnotized..
By a hot flirt with your eyes
Then you turn your back on me
Playing and teasing with your beauty

I want to walk you out in the morning dew
Lay down my loving thoughts for you
I cannot quit you...though I need a break
You put a spell on me  that I can´t escape

IF ONLY I COULD...IF ONLY i COULD...
FILL YOUR HEART WITH LOVE !

If only I could...stop the cold inside of you...if only I could..stop the cold........

IF ONLY i COULD...IF ONLY I COULD...IF ONLY i COULD...
FILL YOUR HEART WITH LOVE....la la la laaa..la la la laa la laa

la la la laaa ..IF ONLY I COULD..la la la laa la laa...

iF ONLY I COULD...la la la laaa...

A HORSE WITH NO NAME
LEARN TO BE AND NOT TO BE
