Drifting through the haze
in a dream-like daze,
Softly floating, memories unwind,
Echoes linger - leaving time behind.

Drifting through the haze
Lost in a dreamy phase
Bound by echoes - sleep intertwine
In a wave of sound, where the stars align

Drifting through the haze....

Un texte que j'ai écrit, mis en musique par une amie que j'embrasse tendrement

Rythme désir

This is drop D tuning with lots of natural harmonics spred though out.I normally play electric guitar but once in a while I will write a quick number  on a acoustic guitar.This will bee the first of many.

Acoustic solo, Harmonic Star Nebula

Endless motion without escape.
Circles drifts through layers of synth, reverb, and tension — a slow rotation between beauty and decay. Every pulse feels familiar, every silence deeper than before.
Minimal. Hypnotic. Eternal.

🎧 Headphones recommended.

When she nestles beneath my wings,
I feel her warm breath
like in a swallow's nest,
sheltered from the slightest chaos,
needing nothing but this bed
in whose depths our two bodies explode
with pleasure to the very last drop... I implode!
In my Asian-inspired sleep,
I revel in erotic dreams
that allow me to experience... what I dare not.
She bends over completely naked,
I approach her attributes,
nothing else exists
but this long-awaited moment.
I penetrate delicately
and forget all my neuroses,
I begin a skillful back-and-forth
to which nothing can oppose.
Like the sun at its zenith,
in our frenzied lovemaking,
we will reach... apotheosis!
Swept away by the intoxication
of the fire of caresses
we lose ourselves without restraint
in a frenzy of sex...
Osaka, 2 a.m.
I must sleep, I suppose
it's time for a break.
In my Asian sleep
I have erotic dreams
that let me experience what I dare not.
Like the sun at its zenith
of our frenzied lovemaking
we will reach... the APOTHEOSIS
