Ian, don't tell me this beautiful lady is another synthesizer of you

Nice slow flowing, imagined synth phrases. Nice tempo development.

Pristine. Nice keys and wavestation loop. Retro goodness!

Beautiful journey underwater... I'm lost in this one! ♪♫

GOLONDRINAS - RAWF - 14/01/2023

Our awesome Japanese friend Tot. (@tot-beat, @user-288513022) was on the drums and bass - thanks again so much for working with us on this fun song, Tot.~ We had a blast!

Art by Masha using Prismacolor Coloured Pencils, which were an amazing gift from @katyasolo. Cheers for that, Katya!

Synth work by Rob Ulysses (@rob-ulysses) and Masha Solo (@masha-solo) Masha also wrote the lyrics and performed the vocals.

This song's story is that one day, Rob & Masha were doing deliveries for a summer-long job in 2021 when Masha spotted an old 60s van in a junkyard and snapped a quick photo, later the two of them making the event into a full song with the help of Tot.

At the same time as Tot. was working on a drum and bass conga style beat but he had no other parts, Rob & Masha were already working on synth parts and a fun chiptunes solo, but they had no drums! So when they heard each other's work in progress, it was only natural that they combined the two into a sort of Farewell To Summer song from their vivid summer memory.

This track is remixable, as long as it's noncommercial.

Lyrics:

Swag And a Bag

Once in my travels, two summers past,
I was on a long road trip for work around Oz,
On country roads, with sugarcane vast,
I saw something that made me drive back and pause,
I saw something that made me drive back and pause...

It really caught my eye,
And I still don't really know why!
But I had to take a photo,
Before I went back to work

It was just this really old van!

In an old junkyard, full of wildflowers, tropical brush,
(And although my job demanded I rush)
I saw that there was an old 60’s van that had seen better days,
It looked like it had seen so many sights, although now decays

(It was just this really old van!)

Before I moved on, I snapped a photograph,
On the side it said something that made me laugh (hah)
“Swag And A Bag” it said, on its side with a tag,
With bright teals and yellows surrounding the autograph
x2

I wondered who had once owned it and why,
If it was for tourists, who’d used it nearby,
What kind of adventures it had been on,
Even though its road trip days were gone
x2

I didn't even really know what 'Swag and a Bag' would mean,
I had to look it up.
But apparently it's really lucky-
It's like when something really good happens to you.
And I found that message positive.

“Swag And A Bag” it said, on its side with a tag,
With bright teals and yellows surrounding the autograph

“Swag And A Bag” it said, on its side with a tag,
With bright teals and yellows surrounding the autograph!

...And I found that message positive.

Fields Of Energy

lorsqu'elle m'est apparue
elle avait déjà tes yeux
ta force inouïe
et ton air obstiné

elle avait aussi des mains 
qu'elle avait héritées
de chasseurs revenus
du froid des temps glacés 

elle m'a dit:

voyageur du temps, voyageur imprudent 
qui s'aventure dans la forêt sombre
écoute les griffes, entends les dents
de prédateurs tapis dans l'ombre

apprenez à vous défendre  (x2)
apprenez à vous soigner
car vous êtes le départ
et vous êtes l'arrivée

vous n'êtes pas que vous
vous êtes d'où vous venez
vous l'êtes et vous l'étiez
sur des millions d'années 

voyageur du temps, voyageur imprudent 
qui s'aventure dans la forêt sombre
écoute les griffes, entends les dents
de prédateurs tapis dans l'ombre

Je ne peux parler de toi (x2)
sans parler de ton père
parler de ton père
c'est parler de sa mère
pour parler de sa mère
faut parler de son père
et parler de son père 
fait revenir à toi

Forêt sombre

Hey up Ryuk!

Latest Updates: 
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.
All my albums in full quality are available on Bandcamp, please check out the link below.
Have recently taken a short holiday to recharge my batteries and top up my creative juices. Thank you to all my followers for your continued support and encouragement, means the world to me.
Over 10K minutes uploaded, over 1500 tracks - am sure there is something in there for everybody to enjoy. I love making music. Hope it matters to you.
Am posting some Jarre sounding pieces as homage to my lifelong hero of electronic music, using some of the sounds and instruments he has used along the way. Jar of Jarre is my collection of memorable sounds which have changed the way we appreciate modern electro.
Keep an eye out for my new collection of 2024 Remastered best of tracks, coming soon.
New year, new start. Back on the search for good music and inspiration. Will be featuring a lot of my older work remastered this year, seems like a long time since I began my composing journey back in 2000.
Happy New Year to all my followers, May 2025 be filled with musical magic. 
Thank you for all your kind comments and support throughout 2024 I do appreciate it. Stay safe and love each other.
All my remastered best tunes from 2015 to 2023 are now available to buy on Bandcamp.
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. (Now available on Bandcamp). 2020 consists of a 3 volume set (now available on Bandcamp).
If you would like to listen to more of Magician, especially retro older tracks please checkout Bandcamp (see link below).
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.
