This is messy and rough, more like a demo -- it was all done in my scratch pad context (FL Studio), but then again the subject is messy and rough.

Take You Down

I can take you down
I can bring you right down put your face down to it
I can wait around ready for you

you are free to change your mind
you are free to leave this life behind
there's an open door but you don't go through it

I try to get away clean but you got me in a hold
you put your fingers in my head and I loose control
how will I ever be satisfied

I can help with the pain for a little while
cause you know it really just ain't my style
to let you feel what I'm doing when I'm doin it

got what I need and I need it
where does it end now
now that I've paid with my freedom

I just want to be free from all the craving of the night
hey yeah will there ever be a time when I feel it

Take You Down

Thank you both for your incredible gifts to me!  This makes me laugh out loud.


"Summertime" is an aria composed in 1934 by George Gershwin for the 1935 opera Porgy and Bess. The lyrics are by DuBose Heyward, the author of the novel Porgy on which the opera was based, and Ira Gershwin.
The song is sung several times throughout Porgy and Bess, and in act 3 by Bess, singing to Clara's now-orphaned baby after both parents died in the storm.

Verse 1
On this train called “Liberty”
I saw my life in front of me
As I close my eyes and I drift away
And float along the milky way

Verse 2
On this train called “Liberty”
I realised endless possibilities
As I look up to the stars above
On this train called “Liberty”.

Verse 3
The rain pours down on warm summer night in New England
The hypnotic rhythm of the train on the tracks soothes my weary mind
I close my eyes and I float away
To the land of emerald green
I close my eyes live another day 
And thank Mary Magdalene

Chorus
I look at the moon and starlight
Shining high in the sky
I think of all the wrongs and all the rights
But I am just a man of simple means, no wise guy
I am just a man of simple means, no wise guy
(Last time- I am on this train called “Liberty”).

Middle 8
On this train called “Liberty” 
Your free to disagree
As long as I stay on the tracks and never look back
I know that I am free
Free to think, to be who I am
Free to live and not care a dam
I am on the train they call “Liberty”.

Love Your True Friends

You'd Rather Be Dead Than Alive

Once you seemed, in my eyes, so bright,
every star paled in your light.
I saw in you, my dream, my destiny,
a vision of love, in endless flight.

I offered you the full moon for love
but you only saw the waning quarter.
You missed the fullness of my heart
leaving us worlds and dreams apart.

    You said you didn't love me but you could be my friend.
    You said you didn't love me but you could be my friend.

In my heart I still bear your mark
so I had to learn to live without a heart.
Now it is late, the flame is a fading spark,
what's left is ash, cold and dark.

    You said you didn't love me but you could be my friend.
    You said you didn't love me but you could be my friend.

    You said you didn't love me...
    You said you didn't love me...

Me and ChatGPT

My friend (lyrics)

So Attractive To Me W/Noirorion/Fabien Aurejac

Spark

Happy New Year to everyone - for the first time in years I went overseas without working on a project  YAY - just a holiday so i kept the internet at arms length for a change and enjoyed the food, romance  and sites of Paris... and then i got married !  Carolyn and I were waiting forever for our plane home and there just happened to be a bright red public piano in one of the waiting lounges... so i embarrassed myself in front of the Parisians... i look forward to catching up on all of yr music as I am now home. All the best for the up coming year : )

Charles de Gaulle Airport -Live Piano Improv

Around 2000 I came up with this idea that I should start a project called Bleak Guitar - an instrumental "band" that would bring together all my preferences for shimmering guitars, dream pop, goth, postrock, folk etc. It never happened - until now.

Bleak Guitar - Throughout Spring

en fin de journée

Todays, or this nights composition.
I belive the title speeks for it self, or should do so :D
Classical guitars and synths.
Reworked photo.

Fragile World

I sent Dan this song for his interpretation...the results were nothing less than beautiful.
He told me the story of his father in law contracting the virus so the song was near and dear to his heart.
I hope his father in law and Dan's family will be OK...I wish for them strength in this time of need.
His creativity is unwavering and always captures the spirit of his music.

For James /Dan van den Berg / Recuerdos Y Requiem Extended - M

A place for sound freaks and aural addicts. 
Music is like food to me: I like almost everything as long as it's well-seasoned and I don't eat the same thing every day, although it happens when I feel like it. 

So there's all kinds of stuff on my page, but after months of schizophrenic debates about who was playing with who and who took the lead while doing it, finally, the decision was made: all my alter egos got together and decided to form a band. From 2020 on new tracks are created under the moniker Gruppo Infernal. Only pure MMTJ tracks will still be named as such. 

Gruppo Infernal still relies on my work as Me, my Thumb and Jack, an ongoing quest for a liberating approach to sound creation where the human body acts as an oscillator amplifying the natural 50hz hum. Direct live recording, improvisations and delay loops only using analog filters and effects. No editing, no overdubs. Gruppo Infernal adds digital treatment to this original sound material. 

UnterPitch was an alter ego using samples & synths.
Bleached Coffins was a one-off project using guitars.

I didn't choose this obsession it was chosen for me unknowingly.
Lucky me no regrets.
