Recorded 20 years ago, this timeless classic piece of Brit-pop, recently remixed, is now ready for major exposure, as we have just aired our latest music video, shot live in the studio, by our dear friend and film-maker, Johnny Carlsen. What is needed now, is signing with an interested and efficient company, who can offer us a reasonable budget, on which we can perfectly mix and master these melodic and dynamic songs, hiding inside my heart, and waiting to flow from there... "I would really like to show my love through all my deeds, and then you'll see them grow, My Golden Seeds!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhaghKi3pdI - Let's get the Rock rolling, the hearts melting, and the songs flowing! For further info, please contact me directly on: 0044-742 404 2249, or over Skype, where I can be reached on this ID: Yon108 
Yours faithfully,

My Golden Seeds of Thought (Radio Edit)

A Sketch of one of many Songs, waiting to be properly recorded...

In Me

A modern Psalm, dedicated to the Children of the Earth, whose Simplicity and Innocence is the Hope for the Future of this corrupted, material World, wherein the 'adult entertainment' of Sex and Violence has polluted the Hearts and Minds of the Majority of People of this troubled Planet. 

Let our Creativity replace the negative and destructive Trends of this Age of Kali - Quarrel & Hypocrisy - for as only Light can dispel Darkness, there is no other way to curb all those disturbing Influences, than to get absorbed, As Children, lost in the Playfulness of Life! 
"It was obedience which brought me grace... One must be utterly abandoned to God; nothing matters, but fulfilling His will. Otherwise, all is folly and meaningless!"(C.G. Jung)

"Very good! Surrender unto God is real spiritual life... Sarva-dharman parityajya [Bhagavad-gita 18.66]. Surrender to God means accepting that which is favourable to God and rejecting that which is unfavourable. The devotee is always convinced that God will give him all protection. He remains humble and meek and thinks himself as one of the members of God's family. This is real spiritual communism. Communists think, 'I am a member of a certain community,' but it is a man's duty to think, 'I am a member of God's family.' God is the Supreme Father; Material Nature is the Mother, and living entities are all sons of God. There are living entities everywhere - on land and in the air and in water. There is no doubt that Material Nature is the Mother, and according to our experience we can understand that a mother cannot produce a child without a father. It is absurd to think that a child can be born without a father. A father must be there, and the Supreme Father is God. In Krishna Consciousness, a person understands that the creation is a spiritual family, headed by One Supreme Father." [Quote from Srila Prabhupada's 'Quest for Enlightenment']
"Presence is the Power with which to change our Fate... Let's build the Future, here and Now, for one Day it's too late! Please, stay awake, my Friend; together, let us pray, that soon the time shall come, where like Children we can play!"



As Children

"I mange Liv troede jeg at jeg skulle eje dig! 'Bliv min' bad jeg dig, men det var først da jeg fik en klods om benet, at jeg forstod hvor Skoen trykker, hvor Hunden ligger begravet i Haven, og hvad Konsekvensen er, af netop sådant et ønske... Hvem var nogensinde tilfredse med at eje en anden, når Prisen for en sådan tvivlsom Gunst, var at miste sig Selv?! Faktisk er vi allerede elskede - blot skal vi lære af Hvem!" 


Elskede (Lyd-digt)

Soul Land (Instrumental)

A Meditative Poem, read by famous British actor, Brian Patterson, recorded live in the Trackhouse Studio, 1993, Copenhagen, Denmark

A Spring Of Crystal Light

Another 'Live in the Studio' song, which I am looking forward to invite my dear friends, Aref Durvesh, as well as Kartik Raghunathan, to add their expertise on the Tabla and Violin, respectively...

This song is dedicated to all those, whose process of deep Healing involves pain and suffering...

'Blessed are the Poor, for they shall become Rich!'

May we all be blessed with Health, Wealth and Happiness! 

The Healing Pains

The Sleeping Beauty Slow Version (Orchestral Version)

As we cannot choose to avoid pain, let us come to terms with the fact that pains persist when we resist...

Instead, let us acknowledge that Pain is a natural state of Life, just as the young mother will not be able to enjoy having a child, without accepting the pain of giving birth...

Pain is the state of being, in which we learn to let go of the false sense of identity, or mis-identification, which brought about our awareness of that painful spot...

In case of Heart-ache, it is important to realise that there's a tender part of our broken Hearts that will contain - the Healing Pain! 

The Healing Pains (Raw Mix)

A demo of a more funky song, recorded 'live in the studio' back in 1993...

A State Of Grace

An ancient Danish Folk Song, taught me by my beloved father, Frode Veddinge, whose contribution to keeping the timeless Culture of the Troubadours alive, has not gone unnoticed, as he has a following around the whole planet...
Type in his name, along with the title of this song, and his marvellous version is played on Youtube...
This is just a sketch, simply to capture the mood of this melancholic song, which has always made me able to cry sweet tears, and on this version, I couldn't help add my little twist to the Tale, in the form of the Mantra of Divine Love! 

Djævelens Ni Spørgsmål

An unrehearsed Jam Session with two friends in London, led to this spontaneous recording, at the home of my Soul-Sister, the greatly renowned Past-Life regressionist, Nicola Dexter, in Camden, London...

The Purpose Of Greatness

Recorded Live in Trackhouse Studio, Copenhagen, Denmark, back in the Indian Summer of 1993.

The Title, 'Bharata Bhumi' is the original Sanskrit name for India, long before even the time of Mahabharata, when the great saintly King, Bharata Maharaja, lovingly ruled over this great Civilization...

In Sanskrit, 'bharata' is derived from two words, 'bha' = 'bhargo devasya' (part of the Brahma Gayatri Mantra) meaning the 'Light of GOD' + 'rata' = 'pragati' meaning 'True Progress in Life' 

'Bhumi' = 'Mother Earth' 

Thus, 'Bharata Bhumi' signifies that sacred Part of our beloved Mother Planet, where Humanity can safely progress in the Light of GOD...

Bharata Bhumi (Instrumental)

Yet another old Classic, recorded Live in Trackhouse Studio, Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1993...

Alone With A Ghost

Yet another old Classic, recorded Live in Trackhouse Studio, Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1993...

This is a transcendental Love Song, dedicated to my Beloved Wife, 30 Years before I am now with her, here in cool Kathmandu, Nepal, Never Ending Peace And Love; A Transcendental Love Song, wherein the Lord of my Heart, Bhagavan Sri Krishna, is perceived as singing to His own eternal Part and Parcel - we, who deep within are pure Spirit Souls, hankering to go beyond this Realm of Illusion, Maha-Maya, Towards Eternity, where we can permanently reside, in the Spiritual World, where Love remains the ruling Principle,...

Towards Eternity

The instrumental Version of yet another old Classic, played as a 'First-take' by my old Lead Guitarist and I, and recorded Live in Trackhouse Studio, Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1993...

The Sleeping Beauty (Instrumental)

Oneness Jam in Hyde Park.m4a

LOVE AID Live @ Blissmas.m4a

'Aloneness' is described as being in 'Presence, Fullness, Aliveness, Joy of Being, Overflowing Love... and it is said to bring 'a new Rhythm of Sweetness, Peace and Joy, to you...'

Only in Solitude can we feel what we are truly feeling, on an individual Level of Being, free from the Projections of other living Beings...

We are born alone, from the womb of our Mother, and we shall one fine Day, leave this mad World alone, so being in Aloneness simply means being in the Reality of the Here and Now - Nowhere = Now Here...

I intend to co-produce an entire Album, of 'Songs for Sad Souls' dedicated to those who are mourning, grieving or feeling sad, for whatever Reason, for indeed Sadness has its own built-in Sweetness, which I feel that we need to honour, both individually and collectively, in order to fully appreciate the true Nature of this Earthly Existence...

Indeed, the Truth is that we are all Part of Everything, and at the same Time, we are all apart from every Thing...

Feeling the Pangs of Separation is necessary, in order to appreciate our Togetherness, and the Oneness, in which we sometimes may find our Selves...

Feeling the Pangs of Separation is necessary, in order to appreciate our Togetherness, and the Oneness, in which we sometimes may find our Selves... 

IN LOVE with LIFE ITSELF... 

In Oneness and in Difference... <3

'More than meets the Ice' is one of the older songs from my Joy-punk catalogue, which signifies the sad fact that most people cannot (and will not) ever fathom, or even try to appreciate the eternal truth that in this cold dark universe, (which only appears pleasant due to the presence of the Sun, sharing with us all, its heat and light!) the Warmth of genuine Love and Affection, always and by definition, will be perceived as a threat; especially by those whose hearts are frozen... 

This is even more true nowadays, when 'playing cool' has become the global trend; in spite of the fact that the need of the hour is exactly to express that genuine warmth and those heartfelt feelings, which accompany a soul, dedicated to sharing the Joy that flows naturally, from deep within… 

"The Lion does not mind when the Jackals howl!" & "The Dogs will bark, but the Caravan will pass!" So, in any case, when Light shines, Darkness will have to disappear! However, it is also a fact that when heat meets with coldness, vapours arise... 

When a cold front meets a warm front, the two cannot mix because of the difference in temperatures and densities. The result is that the warm air, being lighter, will usually be pushed atop the colder air. The air cools as it rises. As this happens, the water vapor in it condenses, forming clouds. Clouds are common along the boundaries of cold fronts. 

Whether a warm front is meeting a cold front, or a cold front meets a warm front, precipitation is likely. But while both types of collision can result in weather events, they are not equal in terms of severity." Right now, as I have committed my Self to being in the Flow, SYNCHRONICITY remains the Key Word! 

More than Meets the Ice

The Purpose of Life is to realize what is the Purpose of Life...
just as,
The Meaning of Life is a Life of Meaning...
For my Self,
"Life is more Fun, when you're serious!"
and I am serious about the Love I share with my Beloved, Amrita Devi,
who for me is the Goddess of Nectar...

A Chorus line from 'The Purpose' reads like this...

"A Purpose goes with every One
like the shining with the Sun
but as soon as we're out
we may forget what it's about...

- Do you remember - your life - what it's about?"

The Purpose

Bhakti is genuine Love and Devotion...

This Song is dedicated to fellow Rock Stars, Sort Sol, (SODS) who are old Friends, for more than 30 Years, since we first met at various venues, such as 'Rock Maskinen' at   FreeTown Christiania, where we used to go for Punk Concerts, with Hell's Angels as our personal Bodyguards, piously protecting us all from getting beaten up by psychopaths...

"I ran from here to there - getting Nowhere - Nowhere, but closer to Death - trying too hard to find Love in this Realm, but rapidly losing my Breath..."


Without Love, We don't Live

The Title-song of my next album, to be promoted around the planet... 'Between Demons and Gods' - there is said to be a mythical Ocean Of Milk, in which the Nectar of Immortality is flowing freely, and upon which the Lord of all Creation, Sri Vishnu, is happily resting... 

The music for this song is inspired by the Velvet Underground's Lou Reed, by U2, as well as Lenny Krawitz, all of whom I am looking forward to meet and perform with, especially if we can motivate these big names to offer their support to our proposed LOVE AID Concert Tour of all of India, by the end of this year.

Our hope is that the Indian people will have enough piety and spiritual intelligence, to appreciate our sentiments and endeavour to create peace and goodwill among people and unity between East and West. 

A dear friend is Tony Succar, whose Michael jackson-based Goodwill project of the same name, UNITY, I have also personally offered my sincere support, when last year Tony personally asked me to assist him in promoting their music video, as a short trailer for Youtube and other social medias, which I was more than happy to help translate into Danish...

Currently, I am in need of support, as a band is needed to help bring this song to life; so do let me know if this song appeals to your taste, and you may want to be the backing band for this track. I envision a 1960's sound, similar to Kulashaker's song, 'Tattva.'

Between Demons and Gods

One fine evening, when I was muffling a sweet Brahmin cow, in a most sacred part of Vrindavan - my spiritual Motherland - during a pilgrimage journey, I suddenly heard this celestial sound, of a most subtle and sweet raga, which I then began singing softly and sweetly... 

This seemed to give even greater pleasure to that sweet cow, and it felt to me that her heart was melting, as if she was truly appreciating the gentle touch of my healing hands... 

Those same hands, carrying that subtle vibration of genuine love and affection, has served to produce this little sketch of what I was listening to, by virtue of my special gift of Clair-audience, by which I am blessed to create such simple, yet wonderful sound-vibrations...

This romantic Charukesi Raga is yet another sweet memory of my beloved Mother India, Mother Cow, Mother Earth and Mother Nature, so enjoy!!
PS
The yellow Rose symbolizes the following attributes...
Joy, Gladness, Friendship, Delight, Promise of a new beginning, Welcome Back, Remember Me...


Evening Raga from Vrindavan
