Music: Jan Schonander

This is about as close to a "dittie" as you get in the synth VST world. I loaded up 5 different VSTs, four from Logic Pro X and 1 from Kontakt, mapped them into 5 different and sometimes overlapping parts of the keyboard and played it all in one go. In other words this is a one man band piece that can be performed live - there are no overlays just a single play. It was kind of fun doing this and I felt like one of those street musicians playing on a pedestrian street in front of an old-fashioned department store while playing. Maybe some of you will enjoy.

Liftoff & Alit

ABSTRACT SUNRISE

This acoustic guitar duo piece I wrote a while back just after visiting the Canary Islands. Now with the really warm days of the year arriving I felt the same mood coming over me as in those days on the island. So, I finished the mix and master to release it now! I hope it brings you the same summer vibe as it does for me.

The track is loosely based on a Rumba Flamenca, a palo or style of flamenco from Andalusia, Spain, however influenced by the Cuban music's version traveling back to the origin of Spain, after it's popularity in Havana's musical theatre. During the late 20th century, Paco de Lucía, together with percussionist Rubem Dantas, incorporated Afro-Peruvian musical elements such as the cajón (wooden box) and certain rhythms. That's where I came to know the style.

As always I really enjoy your comments, likes and shares! -Dan

In the shadow of the valley on a dark dusty trail
Ahead is a desert with the past on his tail
A psilocybin sinner with a gleam in his eye
Past his prime still alive feeling like it's time to die

Oh help him lord please one more time 
This cat's had 8 lives and I'm on number 9

The first rays of sunlight bring hope.  Let there be sunlight

First Rays

you'd have thought it'd be more simple than this
the army gathered 'round their supposed enemy
soon it became clear that all was lost
yeah, all was lost

his mother begged him, no, don't go, this isn't right
i cannot bear to lose, my son, to a war unwinnable
who's proving what to whom

he promised her that he'd return victorious
bring glory back to us
because enough's enough
you'll see

and when they told her that his body wasn't found
she fell to the ground
oh, no
this cannot be
