Music Is What Feelings Sound Like

Que fais-tu baby?

"I was thinking about Summer anthems and how they always seem to be about going out and having a good time with friends. What about the people who want to stay in over Summer - the introverts? Where is their anthem? Inspired by those great Rock tunes over the years; "Let's Get Rocked", "She Hates Me", “Teenage Dirtbag” and "Beverly Hills" I set out to write an old school guitar Rock anthem that is really fun and quirky. This song is inspired by my favourite record producer Mutt Lange and Def Leppard’s “Hysteria” album. PLAY LOUD. 

An anthem for those stay at home Rockers - "Introverts Summer"

Introverts Summer
I'm having an introverts Summer

I'm listening to my music
I've been watching TV
I'm binging all the movies that I've already seen
I see you in the sunlight drinking your beers
I'm staying on the second floor
The view is better up here

I'm having an introverts Summer
I'm having an introverts Summer

I wanna stay home and play guitar
I'm gonna plug in and play "Hysteria"
I need some time alone to stop and think
Tell them all that I'm out when the phone rings

I'm having an introverts Summer
I'm having an introverts Summer

Introverts Summer
Introverts Summer

I'm having an introverts Summer 
(I'm not going out)
I'm having an introverts Summer
(I'm staying in)

I'm having an introverts Summer
I'm having an introverts Summer

Suffering From Aberration, Nowadays (2021)

Such Games as Have for Their Stake the Annihilation of the Defeated

I wrote this song about a year ago and was inspired to write the music after my uncle passed away who was a big part of the 1960s underground and psychedelic music scene in london ,the hippies of that time would frequent a place called the ufo club where they would drop acid and watch such acts as the early syd barrett era pink floyd and many other upcoming music stars of that time.
This song is a bit introspective as well as all things must pass like the music it was an end of an era [jim 2023]

A quirky little number!  This is the first initial trial instrumental mix for our new song Mirrors.  There's a way to go yet but we're working on it... :)

Mirrors

Thanks to Grace for harmonies.

Hey you, with your mask and your MP3,
where d’you think you’re going to?
I got someone I got to see,
maybe too good to be true.

Hold on, 		        just a little bit longer
Reach out, 		just a little bit further
Head down, 		in the overhead crossfire
Fading with the evening

Hey, with your bed on your shoulder pack, 
when d’you think you’re coming home?
I just need to get back to my love,
been too long alone

How long, 			when you com’in back kid?
Head strong, 			you’re radioactive
Done nothing wrong,	I wish you’d come back now
You broken rolling stone

Hey, you, with your style and your different friends,
with your new name, what d’you think you’ve done?
I’m in between two places,
don’t belong in either one.

Long time, 		searching for obscurity
Maybe 		        a little bit traumatized
Seems like 		all the time she knew me
Searching for a sign
Shining 		        blue and green beryline
Coming home,		maybe Sapphirine
She smiles,		she smiles like you’ve never seen
I wish I was there

Aquamarine

The Smile At The Center Of The Universe

While I was thinking about what kind of song I should create, 
 I ended up finishing it. I can't clearly name the theme or the impression I had when listening to this song. However, for some reason I think acoustic jazz drums look good on it, so I published it.
 It seems like the fun part of the music has increased a little. 
 I would be happy if you could listen to it.

lyrics:
We've been through a lot, a lot of shit
now it's time to fight, fight against
against this depression and evil vibe
this is the time we will take over our lives

We've been submersed deep deep down
we've lost our faith into this evil town
we have to get back, get back to our own feet
we had enough, enough with this shit!

and now we have our head up high
we know what it's true and never dies
and now we step up with god's command
we won't take it anymore, not get stuck into the sand

It won't take forever just to reach our dream
it won't take forever to delete the bad scene
it won't take forever to hold your hand
it won't take forever to the promised land

it won't take forever to live again
it won't take forever to face the sun
it won't take forever, it won't take forever!

Rock and Roll Kills

It Won't Take Forever

A song about how I came to learn to play the guitar and start to write songs. I am very sorry for the poor sound. But at the moment I can only record with my phone. That's why I have to play the song in one go. The drums are just the built-in drum accompaniment of my amplifier, which I switched on in this song after the first chords. I will buy an audio interface and try to find a DAW (free or not too expensive) - if you know a free one, you can send me a PM.
One day I will manage to get a better sound, I am sure! But for the first songs, only all live-played with the drums from my amp recorded via phone, since I cannot do more at the moment. Perhaps some like it nevertheless? I am a bit excited about pulishing my first track here...
Since someone asked for the lyrics:

Motörhead is dead
A song called Ramones brought me to them
In my girlsroom I learned to play the guitar
I knew that I would not get very far
When my teacher told us, Motörhead is dead
I wanted to find out the music they made
The music was so fast, the sound was so hard
A song called Ramones brought me to them
Another great band
A second hand guitar, amp from my brother, too loud for my mother
In my girlsroom, on my bed, with headphone on, guitar in hand
With every chord I felt more alive
Motörhead and the Ramones became my drive
I plug in my amp and turn on the sound
Playing Motörhead so loud
With Motörhead my journey had begun
Now I write songs one by one
I learn how to rock and run
And Motörhead lives on and on and on and on

Motorhead Is Dead

It was like that , there is nothing else to say every thought is free to be told 😁🎸🎶.

A Due Act

It Was Like That

thanks for listening and leaving your thoughtful comments, my friends. stay artistically vital and shed old skin if the time has come for change. that is what this song is about. -phil

cicada man

This song is rather long. After all, it's also about a very long journey. We know that not everybody like long songs. We have an excerpt of this song in a completely different version with only guitar accompaniment. That would be the short alternative. But we would be happy if some listeners would make the complete musical journey with us and listen to the full version of the song to the end. Here we go:
Enceladus
Part I: Journey in space:
When we left the earth last year, without any sign of fear
No clue how it would be here

Travelling through the lonely night
Drifting in the milky light
Far away from human sight 

Far away from human life, our mission feels so right
Flying to the icy moon, a journey to the unknown
Enceladus calling us, with the rocket travelling fast
Human dreams we cannot hide, human spirit is our guide
Watch a different cosmic side, all around us the starlight
Travel through eternal night, travel through eternal night

Instrumental Part

Part II: Approaching Enceladus, Landing:
Enceladus’ coming near, Saturn is so huge and clear
Time to change the running gear
Approaching Saturn’s mystical face
After that journey through infinite space
Landing on this moon, foreign stars above
Enceladus as beautiful as love
We’ll explore the ocean under the deep ice
We wonder whether we’ll find traces of life

Travelling through the lonely night
Drifting in the milky light
Far away from human sight

Behind the rings the moon awaits
We’ll explore it’s icy gates
Instruments raised to explore
What’s under the ice and more
Secrets of the inner sea
Cannot wait what we will see, cannot wait what we will see

Instrumental Part

Part III: The scientific mission, getting the results:
(Unfortunately, we are not authorized to present the research results here; this will be done officially. That's why we had to remove this part from our song. Unfortunately, it will take a very, very long time, before the research results are published so we have to ask you to be very patient. )
…
Part IV: Dismantling the camp and heading home:
Enceladus was our home on this mission so alone
Time to leave this icy stone
Packing the instruments with care and grace
We’ll bring our finding through the distant space
In the frozen world under the star’s dome
We gather ‘cause it’s time to go home
Enceladus we will never come back
But about you we’ll create a soundtrack (you have it tight here, the soundtrack)

Camp dismantled and our probes in the crates
Every one ready the countdown awaits
We’ll bring Enceladus’ portrait, 
Destination home, we are on our way

Wait for us ‘cause we bring home amazing research data
And to earth we bring Enceladus’ water

We missed our earth and our people so much
Oh, how we want to feel again the earth’s living touch
Our family faces we long to greet
We will be so happy when we finally can meet
We’ve learned nothing is more important than protecting the earth
Every fight, every sacrifice, every effort it is worth – it!

Journey To Enceladus

Dumb As A Stump

Had a little dry spell, hopefully it's over now. In the span of 24 hours I have alternated between hating and loving this track about 400 times...

If you need a helping hand
Someone who understands
Don’t shed a tear, I’m right here

If you need a dollar bill
Or have a little time to kill
Baby you know I will
I’m right here

When you’re down and blue
And you need two big strong arms to pull you through
Hold on tight, that’s what i’ll do

These are more than just words I say
I’m here for you night and day
Have no fear I'm right here

When the road is long
And you need someone to beside you, I’ll come along
Anywhere with you, is the place where I belong

These are more than just words I say
I’m here for you every day
Have no fear I'm right here
Have no fear I'm right here
Let me make this clear

I'm Right Here

Composed & Produced by Val Akey.
Thank you for listening!

On The Path Of Adventures

She should have left that damn bird alone

Mama Saw A Bird

'courage'

Moments often can not be rehearsed. 
And we're left wishing that we could reverse
time to change our ways.
Oh, what I've come to learn with age
is I've had it in myself this whole time. Courage. 

Strength to walk away without resolve.
Pain that dissipates when I'm absolved
solely from the blame.
Yet, how quickly truths can change
when it's rearranged to suit the needs of all. 

I've been living in an opened cage.
My freedom is my own yet I'm afraid
to spread my wings and fly
from all the years I've lived this lie.
But the time has come for me to break these chains.

courage

Music : Janne Hennie & PJ Project
Lyrics & vocal : Janne Hennie

My beloved children this song is for you
I just want to give a bit of my view
On what I have thought on
Lately, when I think of you..

I promised to be a role model for you
But I made mistakes
I stumbled on my way
Although I tried my best for you..

Sometimes it sure was hard to see
when I made difficult choices
which you thought was wrong
And sometimes I didn't seem strong..

Sometimes we argued and disagreed
I didn't always understand
That you could get tired
Of living with me
And my weak memory..

I could get mad for no reason at all
It wasn't fair
I was just tired
But you was never to blame..

My beloved children this song is for you
I love you so much
I am so proud
For what you have become
My beloved daughters and sons

My Beloved Children W/ Janne Hennie

Cast of characters:
Well-- @user-370942421-686440500 – Hakan – synth, beat, and seed idea
Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur– guitar
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez– guitar, mix, and production 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –five-string fretless bass guitar, synth

This song began with Artur inviting Josh onto a project that he and Hakan had just started that consisted of the beat and a synth line—the one that opens the song—supplied by Hakan. Josh added his five string fretless bass to it first, coming up with an idea of how it could sound. Then, Josh asked Tez to get in on it, too, because Tez not only has an affinity for the genre, but an aptitude for it, as well. After Tez laid down his hot guitar, Josh went back and played his idea, but accounted for Tez's jamming, too, this time. After the basic tracks were done, Artur brought his vibrato/delay guitar magic to the jam, too. Then, Josh added the various synth voices that you hear throughout. ​
  Every great song needs a great producer, and Tez was the man for this job. He brought it all together and used our various parts like a conductor uses different parts of a symphony. This is the fist song that Tez and Josh have done with Hakan. Artur and he are musical partners, so if you dig this song, you would probably like what's on their pages, too. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Fumbling Around (In The Dark)

Neno, is a multi-genre composer, guitarist, keyboard & bass player, and occasionally singer with a warm voicecolor. He has also another project/page, Danen II (covers and support). We worked in the recent past together, resulting in songs expressing deep emotional feeling.

The instrumental "Lost souls" cuts already deep in the heart.. The lyrics i found in the deepest well.

Lost souls

If nothing is your name
And love is just a game
If it’s in  the wrong direction
that you’re looking for connection,

And you reach out for acceptance
And you want to be seen
But no one seem to care and everyone is mean

If you’re longing for attention
And you’re screaming it out
But alone in the desert
No one hears your shout
And you’re talking with the devil
Corse he is the only one 
Who tries to figger out 
what you want

ELLE AVANCE DOUCEMENT

Marquées sur le visage
Des traces de souffrances
Un mal bien avant l'âge
Pourquoi ce manque de chance
Que dire d'un accident
Un mauvais coup du sort
La perte d'un enfant
Parti si vite et mort

Dans toutes ses blessures
Qui l'on marquées à vie
Nombreuses autres brûlures
Lui prennent le cœur aussi
L'absence d'amour
Qu'elle n'a pas accepté
Depuis ce triste jour
Quand lui, il a quitté

Mais elle avance doucement
Se méfie tout simplement
Elle a trop peur de retomber
Créant un nuage pour s'échapper
Car ce n'est qu'en altitude
Qu'elle se retrouve en plénitude

Elle se refait une vie
Toute simple et ordinaire
Dans ses pensées aussi
C'est une douce mère
Mais là-haut bat son cœur
Elle n'oubliera jamais
Mauvais jour de malheur 
Fait de mal et regrets

Elle reste à exister
Et toujours comme elle peut
Essayant d'avancer
En faisant de son mieux
Car ses autres petits
Qui eux n'ont rien à voir
Font aussi toute sa vie
Et mérite ses regards
 
Mais elle avance doucement
Se méfie tout simplement
Elle a trop peur de retomber
Créant un nuage pour s'échapper
Car ce n'est qu'en altitude
Qu'elle se retrouve en plénitude

Elle se fait vivre ainsi
Malgré toutes ses traces
Et attend qu'aujourd'hui
Que le malheur s'efface
Doucement dans sa tête
Pour reprendre un chemin
Et revivre peut être
Ne voyant que demain

Mais elle avance doucement
Se méfie tout simplement
Elle a trop peur de retomber
Créant un nuage pour s'échapper
Car ce n'est qu'en altitude
Qu'elle se retrouve en plénitude

SHE MOVES SLOWLY
Marked on the face
Traces of suffering
An illness well before its time
Why this lack of luck
What to say about an accident
A bad twist of fate
The loss of a child
Gone so quickly and dead

In all his wounds
Who marked them for life
Numerous other burns
Take his heart too
The absence of love
That she didn't accept
Since that sad day
When he left

But she moves slowly
Just be wary
She's too afraid of falling again
Creating a cloud to escape
Because it's only at altitude
May she find herself in fullness

She's making a new life
Very simple and ordinary
In his thoughts too
She's a sweet mother
But up there beats his heart
She will never forget
Bad day of misfortune
Hurts and regrets

She remains to exist
And always as she can
Trying to move forward
Doing your best
Because his other little ones
Who they have nothing to do with
Also do all his life
And deserves his looks

But she moves slowly
Just be wary
She's too afraid of falling again
Creating a cloud to escape
Because it's only at altitude
May she find herself in fullness

She makes herself live like this
Despite all its traces
And wait until today
May the misfortune fade away
Softly in his head
To get back on a path
And maybe live again
Seeing only tomorrow

But she moves slowly
Just be wary
She's too afraid of falling again
Creating a cloud to escape
Because it's only at altitude
May she find herself in fullness

From the Album: "Arrhythmia & Blues" 2024

Lyrics:
Do you need some more cash?
A big old stack
Right there in your pants
Look at you, getting more than the next guy
A bigger slice of the pie
Do you like it like that?
Need more cash?
Look at your bad self out on that dance floor
Gucci sunglasses
A Louis Vuitton money belt
Fill your life with beautiful things
It gives you everything you need
But still you say:

I need something more
(Happiness is where you are)
I have nothing left
(Let the sunshine in your heart)
I feel emptiness
(Feel the magic of the earth)
What more can I get?
(Do you fill up with things where you hurt?)
Let me rhapsodize
I am happy with my slice
5% of paradise

You're getting a bigger bite at the apple
MMMM, it's coming soon
All these things, that gives you more
Va-va-voom
(Va-va-voom!)
Costco size it!
You've got more possessions
Then a Pharaoh
In an Egyptian tomb

But still you say:
I need something more
(Happiness is where you are)
I have nothing left
(Let the sunshine in your heart)
I feel emptiness
(Feel the magic of the earth)
What more can I get?
(Do you fill up with things where you hurt?)
Let me rhapsodize
I am happy with my slice
5% of paradise

Need some more cash?
A big stack in your pants?

5% Of Paradise
