MERCHANTS OF LOVE

A piece in 6/4 time signature, Db key and  just intonation tuning.

Bartosz Kozlowski:   composition, piano
Gonzalo Serrano https://soundcloud.com/user-600615411:     drums 
Georg Boehme https://soundcloud.com/georg-boehme:        baritone saxophone and flute

Georg and Gonzalo, many thanks to you! It was a great pleasure and honor for me to work with such excellent artists.

Morana (also: Marzanna, Marena, Morena, Mora) is an ancient Slavic goddess associated with winter's death, rebirth and dreams. In ancient rites her death at the end of winter becomes the rebirth of Goddess of Spring.

A Rainy Saturday

Berlin’s Non Reversible returns to Animal Farm Records for his 2nd outing on the label with the Coalescence EP. Non Reversible once again showcases his hard hitting and emotive sound with 4 original tracks that take you from rapid fire, high octane dance floor weaponry to end of night ethereal and deep, driven tracks.

"Heroic duck rescue by mi esposa" inspired music. She discovered the fowl beast on it's back, squawking and squrming in the late spring sun at the "Dollars Tree," in the parkng lot. Hot asphalt. We didn't think there was any chance.

I've written a sort of fugue for clarinet and violin, a piece ennobled by the brilliant presence of Tatiana and Georg, whom I sincerely thank for their performance! Their parts weren't really easy, a lot of intertwined notes chasing each other, and they were great, thanks to both of them!

Superbowl Leftovers - Georg Boehme / Stephan Lipinski / Jamie Rhind

Sort of 2nd part to my previous rocky song 'Yo pensé', some introspective remorse the day after, or not... with Italian inspiration. It got a warm organic sound when https://soundcloud.com/tunesma agreed to masterfully play the piano line.

Letra / Translated lyrics:

HAY EDAD (SOY UN SOÑADOR)    /    THERE IS AN AGE (I AM A DREAMER)

Traficante de sexo,    /    Sex trader,
comerciante de amor,    /    love merchant,
para estos juegos    /    for these games
hay edad.    /    there is an age.

Soy un soñador    /    I am a dreamer
con ganas de amar.    /    with will to love.
Toda esta locura    /    All this craziness
no es propia de mi edad.    /    is not appropriate to my age.

La gente busca seguridad,    /    People look for security,
alguien a quien conocer,    /    someone to know about,
compañía de por vida,    /    company for life,
una mano que coger.    /    a hand to hold.

Soy un soñador…    /    I am a dreamer …

Bad Ass Boy  -  Tom Adams / Jamie Rhind

My first track of the year in 2020; I had no idea how prophetic it would be.  We all lost loved ones or know someone whose loved ones perished in the pandemic (still ongoing) and the heart's cry was to have "one more day" to say what needed to be said, to give them a hug or a kiss, share a laugh or a tear; to give them a fond and fitting farewell.  Annie @annie-smart-1 added a lovely vocal and piano part to this song that lifts it to another level.

For One More Day (instrumental version)

Here`s a track from my latest album which I released november 2019. One can download it on services like Itunes or Spotify

IF ONLY

If only you could see through my eyes
If only I could find just one more way
If only we could go back in time
If the two of us didn’t feel so lonely

If only could be sublime

And I will never forget
I remember your tender embrace
I miss gazing into your eyes
I miss hearing your laughter
Seeing your smile
Feeling your love

And yet
There’s so much more
Why I walked out that door
I can’t ever forget
Lying on my back 
On a cold floor

If only you’d never got mad
If only you hadn’t made me sad
I sing every night and day
I sing if only
If only

If we could get back to just having fun
If everything could be undone
If we could live on regret
If the two of us, had never met
If no-one had to run

If only you’d never got mad
If only you hadn’t made me sad
I sing every night and day
I sing if only
If only

I pray from Monday to Sunday
I pray for both of our souls
I sing every night and day
I sing if only
If only

I'm still alive,  but that’s not right
 While you're alone  
Stuck inside the stone
 And let it be precious
 But the tears on the eyelashes 
I want to be closer 
But you can't hear me at all 
Inside the stone Broken heart Beats hard

Long Suit (Boehme & Wiedenfeld)

We're all On the Lowdown these days, trying to understand the significance of the issues around us.   And I couldn't think of a better way to spend some time than to bring together some of my very favorite musicians I have met from around the world, with our original On the Lowdown.   Special musicians contributed to this - two exceptional guitarists from the Philadelphia area - Audric Jankauskas and Stephan Lipinski, Barcelona's Sam Mendez on tenor sax, and Germany's Mirko Borach playing the beautiful fretless bass.  Audric has the first guitar solo and Stephan the second.  The final mastering was done by Audric.  Follow these wonderful players and creators:

A fun one for me as some favorite musicians join me in our gospel inspired original, Take Me Home.   When it comes to the blues, guitarist Tom Adams is a natural, and his swinging side comes out here.  We've done over fifty recordings together and it always works.   We're joined here by the multi-instrumentalist Georg Boehme, who lays down some serious Bari saxophone lines.

Smooth Move - Georg Boehme / Jamie Rhind

Reach For The Sky is one of those collaborations that brings it all together with great musicians and great friends.  A big project that in total was more than 1GB, this soulful original gives everyone a chance to make statements and a chance for some fine ensemble work too.  Scotland's highly versatile Annie Smart so emotionally adds her voice and harmonies, Germany's Georg Boehme is on Bari Sax on this track, and Spain's Sam Mendez plays the flute.  Both weave in and out between the vocals, and above the wonderful bass of Italy's Daniele Petrocchi.  And playing guitars is Daniele Turani, also of Italy.  Everyone's in such fine form and it all gels so beautifully.  Follow each of these great players and creators.

"Early Years DNA" is an EP driven by various samples from the past. DNA's were crossed. Sounds were fused. All is glued to become a new power with an old and wise soul. Breaks, vocals, synths - let them remind you of the glory days of the rising underground. These tracks are your musical gene blueprints to take you into a new, evolved future.

Early Years DNA

Premiere : Jokios Kultūros - Tribal Block Party [Electric Shapes]

Joy and happiness are the most sought after and lovable among human emotions. However the moments of joy and happiness in the human being are never absolute or last too long, there is always some drama in them and sometimes they transform into conformity without us noticing it. In our life course we have to experience these emotions some or many times and notice that they elevate and transform us, it is little or nothing human not to feel happiness and joy and a mistake to believe that they will not decline. We will be lucky if they transform into calm and conformity and we will hardly be human if they never capture all of our being.
