i like this Song . i here a 70ies rock Spirit , great work

Heard a good jazz rock track after a long time

Very cool song, full of charachter with a hint of melancholy

This is a very cool tune. The piano style and lyrics remind me of a Donald Fagen type of song. Nicely done.

Nice and warm voice and beautiful arrangements! [via https://sc.repostexchange.com]

Robot Heart

Wound so tight
Time stands still
Please come back to me
Life’s too small
To Collapse in its wake but You were my everything

This paradise is lost without you and I’m falling down...

My robot heart
It beats for you
I bleed but I’m Holding on
I’m Holding on
I'm holding to you

Lost your light
And here in the dark
Reminded of everything
And In my mind
This prison of why
A dream of the afterglow

This paradise is lost without you and I’m falling down....

My robot heart it beats for you
I bleed but I’m Holding on
I'm Holding on
I’m holding on to you

Cuts so deep
To wake from a dream
In this bed alone
Your scent on the sheets
Like so many things
Long faded and gone

This paradise is lost without you and I’m falling down....

My robot heart it beats for you
I bleed but I’m Holding on
I'm holding on
I’m holding on to you

MAKE FRIENDS WITH GORILLA
Music by Overdrive and Stargoon

The song Make Friends With Gorilla is the result of a team effort and was composed in collaboration with the amazing band Stargoon. 

The initial idea was to produce the electro background for one of Stargoon's songs. It was then that the composer Shayne O'Neill introduced me to the demo of "Make Friends With Gorilla". The song was great and I spent a lot of time creating different electro versions, experimenting with beats and bass lines, but none of them sounded really interesting. I came to the inevitable conclusion that any change too abruptly would take away from the beauty of the original track, and perhaps the best solution was a remix. This way the original track could be released intact and still get a remix.

"Just do whatever you think works best," was Shayne's response. Man, you don't say that to someone who is desperate (lol). After that I completely abandoned the electronic versions and went for a mix of punk rock (!), anime music (!!) and orchestra (!!!)

This remix was by far one of the biggest challenges I've had to date, because it forced me to experiment with a crossover of styles outside the electro bubble.

I hope you enjoy the result.

Stargoon is the fantastic musical project created by the duo Shayne O'Neill and Ceridwyn "Sunny" Roberts-Floyd. The band has post-prog pop influences and was once defined as Hawkwind meets Devo. In my opinion, Stargoon's sound is completely original, a rare gem. I am an outspoken fan of the duo's work.

Their excellent debut album, The Gift, is well worth checking out:

I also recommend a visit to the SC profile of Shayne O'Neill, composer, musician and UFO pilot. His musical genius is indisputable:

The radio intro is an excerpt from the movie King Kong Vs Godzilla (1962). This exact part is available on YouTube:

Lyrics
MAKE FRIENDS WITH GORILLA

Make friends with make friends with her, they said
Make friends with the piece they said
He doesn't intend to smash Tokyo.
He just wants to find love.
He just wants to find love.
This city takes everything we love.
This city is falling

Make peace with the gorilla man
Make peace with make peace with the gorilla man
He doesn't want to break with his hands
He just wants to go home
He just wants to go home
This city has ruined all the things that bring joy
This city must be destroyed

Make friends with make friends with make friends with the lizard king
Make peace with make peace with the lizard king
He doesn't want to crush Tokyo
He just wants happy times
He just wants happy times
This city has taken all the good times
This city is leaving

Make Friends With Gorilla (feat. Stargoon)

DIXIE FRIED
Music by Overdrive

Dixie Fried is a sort of audio version of "Where's Wally?" The track has tons of references to the hippie/rock counterculture of the 1970s -- from the slang that gives the song its title, to the cover art reminiscent of Easy Rider; to the very structure of the song.

Reference lists are at the end of this text.

Synthetic vocals from Dreamtonics' Synthesizer V software with Eclipsed Sounds’ Solaria voice. Guitars from samples provided by Noiiz website.

I hope you enjoy.

LYRICS
DIXIE FRIED (1)

There's no way home from here
No turning back for me
That stranger living in fear
Now longs to set be free.

Looking for freedom's glare
I'm lost inside of me
My life is fleeing fast
Where should I run from here?

Wandering all around.
All right, but in my mind.
Let's walk down the golden brick road. (2)
But all in my dreams, just in my dreams.

I'm losing track of it all.
Oh, no. Where am I now?
Jim's blue bus is leaving town (3) 
And Lucy's in a rush, watch out. (4)

Just let your freak flag fly  (5)
Spaced out (6) and out of sight. (7)
Turn off your mind (8) and see
With kaleidoscope eyes. (9)

All marmalade skies (10) and soulflies
Are in my mind.
I'm floating down the stream of time (11)
But I don't know if I'm coming up or down. (12)

Just another trip in the wall. (13)
Oh no, I'm lost somehow.
Take your deep dive down the rabbit hole. (14)
And let's turn on, tune in and drop out. (15)

[Timothy Leary narration]

[Jimi Hendrix guitar solo]

Looking for freedom's glare
I'm lost inside of me
My life is fleeing fast
Where should I run from here?

Wandering all around.
All right, but in my mind.
Let's walk down the golden brick road.
But all in my dreams, just in my dreams.

I'm losing track of it all.
Oh, no. Where am I now?
Jim's blue bus is leaving town
And Lucy's in a rush, watch out.

SONGS OF HOPE FOR A NEW REALITY.

This work consists of three songs.
 
The first song is for a baritone voice and represents that it is sung by a character who is a journalist and tries to give an overview of the many global crises and conflicts that are currently haunting us and causing "perplexity in an uncertain world".

The second song, for a contralto voice, represents that it is the reply given by a female character who is an anthropologist, to the previous journalist arguing that we can only save ourselves if we start from approaches based on ethics and anthropology to build a "critical conscience of our species" that allows us to create a new global reality where all human beings have a dignified and comfortable life.

The third song is a fugue for four voices (for soprano, alto, tenor and bass) and represents the well- meaning people who have honestly understood what the situation is: it is only possible to overcome this "perplexity in an uncertain world, creating new global reality for all.

At the end of this introduction I attach a PDF with the lyrics of the three songs. I put the original version in English and also its translation into Spanish.

The music has an initial inspiration in what we could call musical styles of modern popular music, but with the aim of reaching a final composition of a more abstract and artistic nature. Regarding the musical production, as is usual in my works, the score of the different musical parts is performed by computer software, specifically in the instrumental parts I have used the synthesizer (granular and spectral) called Padshop 2 and also samplers from the VSL (Vienna Symphonic Library) that, although in this library the instruments have acoustic timbre, I have given them an electronic music treatment. But the most peculiar part is the one corresponding to the voices in which I have used the VOCALOID 6 software that has a singing synthesis technology that produces singing voices that are very realistic and with the ability to articulate words and that has been, initially , developed to sing in the Japanese and English languages.

As for the textual content of the lyrics of the songs, I have written it myself and I wanted it to start from the current global reality and to have, as far as possible, a projection in the general interest. I have been inspired by various texts that I have read lately and, especially, the book "El porvenir de la humanidad”  written by Eudald Carbonell i Roura, a Catalan archaeologist and anthropologist who has a long and important professional career.
