Scary dream story influenced by Aphex Twin, Prodigy and Chemical Brothers beats,taken from Spookshow inc. Visions of the blinded world (pt.1) album.

..Carried away into a scary dream
       its trick or treat-game has begun
       snake is the queen and there is unicorn
       wears crown of thorns pointing at me

       Follow them down into a blizzard storm
       time is short my blood runs cold
       life is at stake and winner looses it all
       fate and things,rituals and kings
       
       Pack of hounded dogs behind my back
       deep forest track, there is no turning back
        
       One last dream before i wake up
       something holds me back,something drags me back
       flying through the time and space i realize
       reality is the scariest dream of all

     I never thought it can be real,my eyes are blind but i can see
     in gloomy cave i find a stone,to my surprise it speaks to me
     it says:
     i miss the moon,the sun
     atom heart mother-Mars is my brother

Scary Dream  (video in the description)

Title track  from Spookshow inc. Visions of the blinded world (pt.1)  album.

..We gave up our freedom for the momentary gain
we forgot our spiritual nature underway
in this illusionary game of riches,power and the fame
i see a billion bleeding hearts behind the bars of isolation
forever these eternal enemies will fight on
i have a feeling i have already been there
in search of faith my destiny and peace
i leave time mystery unsolved for now
i take a break..

..On the other side of time
of all that lies ahead and is left behind
we all have our time machines switched on-our memories
the tricks of human mind,the flashbacks of history repeating
of prophecies untold and books unwritten
lost in madness of duality and choice
forever fighting an elusive battle of our worst fears coming true
there is no religion to heal my wounded soul
this is a vision of the blinded world..

Hey everyone~
This is my third on-my-own original track, and the first original I've done where the piano takes center stage! Maybe I'll add violin to it later if I can think of anything :) 

This track was actually inspired by a little 20-second song played in the TV series "Community" - specifically, the song that Britta and Troy dance to at the end of the episode "Interpretive Dance".

Song of the Jellyfish - Clear's Song - a DMMD cover by IceRequiem

The last single I'll be posting from the score I wrote for Holy Ghost. This one takes place as the Monaco scene unfolds...had lots of fun playing with synths and choirs on this one. Also, I cooked lots of bacon the few days as I was scoring the scene.

Eyes Wide Open

This is truly the most wonderful time of the year - purely magical. And I think it ought to be accompanied by music which beckons nostalgic warmth. This version of Dwell was born of late nights at a piano...always wondering if the melodies of the original could be rewritten in a rather free and spontaneous fashion. This is what emerged. It is best enjoyed under a star-lit sky as the snow falls  - of course with several angels & baby deer in your midst as you sip hot drinking chocolate. Merry Christmas and enjoy the free (and uncompressed) download!

The Last Dawn - collaboration with Shayni Hamadi

Instrumental  Version of "Gimme Some Lovin’" (1966)- for its "50th Anniversary"  
[more info >> below]  - SPEAKERS recommended wo/headphones - 

This is the second collab work with Paul (@paul-racle )- Several months ago, while we were working for the previous collab song, he sent me his cover(backing) of this song as well, and kindly asked me if I’d like to add some onto it. I said Yes!! ...it's one of my all time favorite songs again ! 
His initial version of backing track can be heard in the vocal version featuring our good friend, David - link: https://soundcloud.com/david-louthan/give-me-some-lovin2-paploviante-david-lee-louthan

As you can hear there, the initial version itself already sounded great to my ears, and seemed to work perfectly for vocal addition or so. On one hand, I felt that it wouldn't be interesting enough if I merely interpose guitar solo or the other onto it. So, I asked him if I could re-arrange the whole structure of backing, and he generously allowed me to do whatever with it...
I apologize for my delay in finishing(I'd completed most of arrangement and recordings a few months ago- before the vocal version was published, but I haven't had time to do music at all since then...not only for this)...but finally I could find a little spare time to do....Hope you enjoy!
Once again, I'd like to thank Paul for his offering and patience.

------
- Original song was written by Steve Winwood, Spencer Davis and Muff Winwood, released in 1966 (London), and performed by The Spencer Davis Group ( later the reprise/self-cover by Traffic). 

- The picture for the cover art was borrowed from the album of Traffic's "Traffic" (1968). Copyright of the original picture must belong to the original artist and the label.

------
[Additional Notes on Arrangements & Recording]

-Guitars: Fender Strat '58 w/ Marshall JVM (overdrive, reverb, open-mic), partially w/ Vintage CE-1, Jen Crybaby Wah (only to narrow the range), MXR Phase 90(only for B Guitar-3)

I have some albums including this song (the original version by the SDG, the live version by Traffic and some other covers), and I love the Traffic's version most.
So, my arrangement started firstly by re-interpreting that version(for the  guitar riffs, percussion, etc).
That one can be found on their album "Welcome to the canteen".
>>Amazon Link: amzn.com/B00006399Z

The major differences from the SDGs original are the riff - than the famous one that the SDG borrowed from the Homer Banks' song "A Lot of Love" - and the rhythm sections. 

You can also see on Youtube, that there is another one(with similar riff arrangement ) performed by Winwood's band featuring E.Clapton("The ARMS Concert, London 1983", which I think was the best performance by them). 
>> Youtube Link: youtu.be/5vvH-mUaPEY

Whereas, those versions that I love don't have any lead phrase of guitar.
Therefore, all guitar licks in our version were written myself.

Hope For The World - Collaboration with John Styles, Oliver Papke, & Colin Powell

You call it's late afternoon
The mice are all out of the race
I drown in work but you sound disturbed
I guess I can wait I guess I can wait

While he's holding your hand 
You don't even care
But you're the kind of girl
Who will paint the skies blue

I close my eyes and open my heart
This time I'm better sorry than smart

Breathe into my mouth
Breathe into my mouth

Inside the shame there's a world coming back for me
A world coming back inside the shame
There's a world coming back for me
A world coming back for me

Clutch release, twitch n' squeeze
Blow my mind, satiate me
Girl better raise that chin
Daddy loves you baby
God will judge his sin

I close my eyes and open my heart
This time I'm better sorry than smart

Breathe into my mouth
Breathe into my mouth

Inside the shame there's a world coming back for me
A world coming back inside the shame
There's a world coming back for me
A world coming back for me
