I'm Casting Spells

Quand les contraires s'attirent ...

Lyrics :
J'préfère de loin quand on est proche
Quand loin des yeux t'es dans ma poche
J'te partage pas je sais c'est moche
Et tu m'reproches que je m'accroche
J'préfère encore plus que jamais
Quand tu m'dis oui mais y'a un mais
En avril tu fais ce qu'il te plait
C'est ta manière de m'aimer

Tu es mon antonyme mon ivresse contraire
Une idylle qui rime comme des paroles en l'air
J'suis pas ton synonyme c'est plutôt le contraire
Mais même s'il est minime notre amour est sincère

J'préfère peut-être évidemment
Que tu oublies ta vie d'avant
Ta vie d'eau fraiche ta vie d'amant
Ça m'parais quand même évident
J'préfère d'ailleurs quand t'es ici
 Tout contre mon cœur endormis
Je laisse tous tes rêves pour lui
Je prend les jours j'lui laisse les nuits

Tu es mon antonyme mon ivresse contraire
Une idylle qui rime comme des paroles en l'air
J'suis pas ton synonyme c'est plutôt le contraire
Mais même s'il est minime notre amour est sincère

J'préfère quand même c'est pas pareil
Quand je suis ton unique soleil
Le seul qui t'susurre à l'oreille
Comme des messages dans des bouteilles

Tu es mon antonyme mon ivresse contraire
Une idylle qui rime comme des paroles en l'air
J'suis pas ton synonyme c'est plutôt le contraire
Mais même s'il est minime notre amour est sincère

I like it better when we're close
When out of sight you're in my pocket
I don't share you I know it's ugly
And you blame me for hanging on
I prefer even more than ever
When you tell me yes but there's a but
In April you do as you please
It's your way of loving me
You're my antonym my intoxicating opposite
An idyll that rhymes like words in the air
I'm not your synonym it's rather the opposite
But even if it's minimal our love is sincere
Maybe I'd rather
That you forget your former life
Your life of fresh water your life of lover
It seems obvious to me
I prefer it when you're here
Close to my sleeping heart
I leave all your dreams for him
I take the days and leave the nights to him
You're my antonym my intoxicating opposite
An idyll that rhymes like words in the air
I'm not your synonym it's rather the opposite
But even if it's minimal our love is sincere
I still prefer it's not the same
When I'm your only sun
The only one who whispers in your ear
Like messages in bottles
You're my antonym my intoxicating opposite
An idyll that rhymes like words in the air
I'm not your synonym it's rather the opposite
But even if it's minimal our love is sincere

Lyrics 

Wheat fields shine like golden sheets
In your mind you still believe
You’re different from all the grain
Only you can feel this certain pain

Window’s open to your street
You hear the gentle sigh of the breeze
No traffic there to clutter up
What once was there to shut you up

Free from the ego
Free from the pride
It’s simple to just be alive

Free from the ego 
Free from the pride
It’s simple to just be alive

In the mirror you sustain 
A glaring at your simple frame
This wishing for a better you
Is all that you seem to do

Free from the ego
Free from the pride
It’s simple to just be alive

Free from the ego 
Free from the pride
It’s simple to just be alive

Just be alive
Don’t bite the apple

You are just as meant to be 
A perfect mix of biology
There’s no peace you can’t achieve
You just have to change what you see

Free from the ego
Free from the pride
Simple just to be alive

saving up the things

Lyrics:

Do you see something falling from the sky?
Be afraid
Maybe you have lost your mind!

All the crap you filled into your brain
It may explode
And you will end up insane!

Do you hear bells and screaming in your ears?
Be afraid
It's something that shouldn't be there!

All the crap you filled into your brain
It may explode
And you will end up insane!

Do you see scary monsters in the dark?
Be afraid
Now it is going to far!

All the crap  you filled into your brain
It may explode
And you will end up insane!

Do you find yourself crawling on the floor?
Be afraid
Your brain couldn't take anymore!

All the crap you filled into your brain
It has exploded
And you have gone insane!

Insane

""Don't Be Denied" is a key song in Neil Young history. It's from the live stage album Time Fades Away taken from tours done to support Young's outstanding smash hit Harvest, and at the same time done during one of Young's darkest times, right after longtime collaborator Danny Whitten had died of an overdose of alcohol and Valium. Young was hitting the bottle pretty hard here and singing in a falsetto voice, the combination of which would cause him to develop a throat infection. Young, with his heart always on his sleeve, sang what he felt.
As stated in Neil Young: Long May You Run: The Illustrated History, "'Don't Be Denied' is an unguardedly autobiographical tune that traces Young's life from his parent's [1961] divorce to his current dichotomous status as poor in soul but rich in commercial success."
The time of Young's parents' divorce was turbulent, as the separation was anything but amicable. However at the time, 16-year-old Neil was raising chickens and selling the eggs, with plans to go to Ontario Agricultural College and be a farmer. Only his leisure activities foretold his future, when he would hide from his family problems in his room with his transistor radio playing local station CHUM. From this, Young learned admiration for Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, and of course Elvis. In 1958, his father bought Neil his first music instrument, a plastic ukulele. His father would later recall, "He would close the door of his room... and we would hear plunk, pause while he moved his fingers to the next chord, plunk, pause while he moved again, plunk."                      Songfacts

Don't Be Denied-Neil Young (Cover)

This song features a very slow tempo (30 bpm) with a gentle and soothing sound.  I used a straight beat with even spaced and smooth notes to create a flowing sound.  There is repetition in song structure, chord progression, and with the notes placement on the beats. Three electric dulcimer tracks intertwined a descending bass line with an ascending melody creating a cool auditory experience. There are a variety of sounds and textures present  but it is not over whelming.  The song has an atmospheric and immersive feel due to Valhalla reverbs and generous panning of tracks in Logic Pro.

My primary focus on this song was to experiment with descending bass lines/ascending melody lines with my electric dulcimer.   Also, I continued my exploration of different chord progressions and used Curtis Jones's "High 51 Blues" chord progression.  Note that although the song has a traditional blues chord progression it's not a bluesy song as my intent was to create a unique ambient soundscape experience.

In listening to this track it reminded me of the tranquility of childhood kayaking in ocean bays.

Have been remastering some of my 'unloved' tracks from the past here on SC - music which has not received as many plays as I would have expected. Maybe 2nd time around your might like it.
The 2025 remastered tracks are being readied for my best of 2025 album in 2026, available January 2026.
I do not use AI on any of my work, just blood sweat and tears, and a lot of emotion/feelings. The reason I have so much music on SC is that I love making music and it is my life. Also I love to share my work with you all, please enjoy.
Have recently discovered some old tracks which I did back in 2009 but have never been previously released or worked on further. Decided to let them see the light of day, unedited and unpolished. Hope you enjoy them and can see where my humble beginnings started.
Also new for Autumn 2025, a collection of classical piano pieces which I composed back in 2010, in memory of my late father who inspired me to play the keyboard in the first place. Under the title of Magician In Private, hope you will allow my indulgence into a special world of just simple piano, no frills.
Please checkout my vast collection of playlists. All my best music is on there in one place. Is free to listen to or sleep with.
From 1st June 2025, celebrating 10 years of KORG KRONOS music with lots of brand new music showcasing the wonders of this iconic workstation in all it's glory. Also as a nod to the release of the KRONOS 3, which will take KORG into the next generation.

Happy New Year to all my followers, May 2025 be filled with musical magic.

Am back to making regular music now but sorry no Christmas songs this year. This time of year is very hard for me as it is when my father became very ill and died in the new year 2010. I still miss him very much but hope he would be proud of my musical journey, he is my number one inspiration.
Just a quick personal note on AI and music. I think it is not a good thing for the creative side of music and a lot of it comes without feelings or soul. Creativity is a gift, and should be greatly valued, cherished and nurtured. Music is what makes us human and can never be replaced by a computer.
Finished remastering up to and including 2023 now. Has been a mammoth task but well worth the effort. Next year I shall be working on a remastered series of my pre KORG days 2000 to 2008, in 8 volumes, as well as celebrating in style my 10 years of KRONOS magic, can't wait for 2025.
Have now amassed over 1000 tracks on SC (that's over 8000 minutes of music) and it has been a blast sharing them with you all. Next year 2025, marks the 10th anniversary of the start of my KORG journey.
Am currently putting together a remastered Anthology collection of all my best tracks from 2015 onwards. 2015 consists of a 3 volume set (Now available on Bandcamp). 2016 consists of a 4 volume set. (Also available on Bandcamp). 2017 consists of a 4 volume set. (Available on Bandcamp) 2018 consists of a 4 volume set. (Also available on Bandcamp). 2019 consists of a 4 volume set.

Have recently been rediscovering some of my older music pre KORG days and remastering for uploading to my cloud. Hope you like. Seems such a long time ago now.
I have been lucky to have music in my life, and now the time to explore how it can affect other people. I have discovered many new talented artists on SC and am happy to encourage and support their work; from small beginnings come great things. Please be inspired to be your best, inspire others too, encourage those who lack the inner courage to move forward, and together we can make music make a difference in all our lives.
Am spending a lot more time on my music now since retiring from work in July 2020. Always learning new techniques and honing my craft. Am comfortable now with all chord sequences throughout the scales and loving improvising with the help of my mighty KORG still. Am still trying to give my full support and encouragement to all SC users and some latest (you know who you are), are developing nicely. Be good to one another, be gracious to others, leave your ego out of your life and above all else remember there is always someone worse off than yourself. 
Please be kind to each other, to be happy with our lot without jealousy or greed; to give without asking the cost; to love as if there is no tomorrow; to share and inspire others who may be less fortunate than us; most of all to enjoy life for the joy of living, for we know not what the morning brings - stay safe my friends, be strong and always stay positive; remember life changes - DON'T let it change you!!  
Music is my life - has helped me through many dark places, is a big part of who I am. I put my heart and soul into every single piece of music I produce. I have found many wonderful friends on SC and many exciting talented people.  Been writing and producing music now for 40 years plus. Specialised in electronic based orchestral compositions. I have created my own genre which I call 'electrorchestration'.
Favourite artists/bands include Gary Numan, Little Boots, Jools Holland, Eno, Edgar Froese (1944-2015), Jordan Rudess, Kebu, Madis, Keith Emerson (1944-2016), Rick Wakeman, Richard Wright (1943-2008), Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, Jean Michel Jarre, M83, Public Service Broadcasting, Dream Theater, ELP, Yes and Mystery to name but a few.
