This is my favorite song of yours yet, though you never disappoint.

I love the ambiance to this song, a really nice contrast to your powerful vocals. really great production, love the vocals FX on the chorus

Very nice song, with special voices and a grooving bass, love [via https://sc.repostexchange.com]

I really like your approach. Quite unique and fresh. Nice melodies and great musicianship. This song has an especially nice melody. Great lush build towards the end.  √√√√

super cool track man - really like the vibes and overall feel <3

John, you have something special about your music. All your songs are soulful and brilliant. My wife loves this song, the vocals are downright rad

I like the intro, creates a really interesting vibe. I like your voice though the first line could be sung a little bit nicer! The sound at the beginning reminds me a bit of a Kid A/ Amnesiac era Radiohead: good melodies in general! I like the little abstract solo near 1:40. I do think that after that part I'm getting a little tired of the melody: this is the time for a real second melody man lol. I think when the new melody is nice and when the drums kick in it sounds really good! Very interesting songwriting [via https://sc.repostexchange.com]

This is a star story, a Celtic myth, that used to be acted out at carnivals, fairs and pageants up and down the country on May Day or Beltane. Nowadays, all that remains of it is the personage of the Queen of the May, and the maypole. So here we reconstitute this seasonal drama, which is about the Lord of Winter (Orion) having to give way to the Lord of Summer (Ophiuchus) so that summer can begin, at the setting of the Sisterhood of the Deer (the Seven Sisters of the Pleiades) when the Sun is in Taurus the Bull and the full Moon is in Scorpio.

I'm very grateful to APi_ZZ (@api_zz) for orchestrating so brilliantly all the twists and turns of this song, the second in a series of eight pieces to celebrate the eight Druidic festivals of the Windmill of the Year, more about which here: anniedieuleveut.com/2024/02/01/the-…ll-of-the-year/

Beltane (May Day)

I was experimenting in this music with how to get jazzy and rock beats and moods out of some of the notes. I used guitars, drums and synths along with Ableton live tools.

Take A  Somersault

Hush my little darling - don’t you cry
watch the sky 
stars so bright 
the beauty of the night
Sandman made a dream for you
I wish it will come true
blessings, fortunes, hope and hugs
the best of dreams filled with love 

Hush my little darling dont you cry
dream sweet dreams  
Wave the day goodbye
Morning  breaks
Darkness fades away 
You’ll play
sun or rain
come what may. 

Evening stars spread the light 
a diamond in the night 
A nightbirds sings her lovely tune
it’s time to wake the sleepy moon

Hush my little darling dont you cry
dream sweet dreams  
Wave the day goodbye 
Morning  breaks
Darkness fades away 
You’ll play
sun or rain
come what may. 

Hush my little darling dont you cry
dream sweet dreams  
wave the day goodbye

Hush

Light. Punchy. Incisive. Persistent. Wherever it goes.... It does get somewhere.

Poètes perdus

Tu gardes le tempo 
Dans les bras de ta muse
Qui te porte déjà
Au bout de ta mémoire
Qui creuse dans tes mains
Tant de portées d'amour
Tu rayonnes déjà
Sous leurs calices de feu

Refrain :
Léo, Léo, Léo
Les violons de tes nuits
Te fredonnent les notes
Des poètes perdus

Demain, tu trouveras 
Le parfum du mystère 
Qui sillonne la terre 
Au fond de quelques joies 
Dans le son des hautbois 
Quand tu chantes la vie 
Tes soirs de liberté 
Sur ton piano d'azur
(refrain)

Debout dans le brouillard 
L'hiver, tu resteras 
Les putains de la mort 
Et les maîtres de Dieu 
Et tous ces fous de feu 
Te souffleront les mots 
Venus de l'au-delà 
Une nuit de sabbat
(refrain)

Lost poets

You keep the tempo
In the arms of your muse
Who already carries you
At the end of your memory
Digging in your hands
So many spans of love
You're already glowing
Under their chalices of fire

Refrain :
Léo, Léo, Léo
The violins of your nights
Hum to you the notes
Of lost poets
Tomorrow you'll find
The scent of mystery
That crisscrosses the earth
In the depths of some joy
In the sound of oboes
When you sing of life
Your evenings of freedom
On your azure piano
(refrain)

Standing in the fog
L'hiver, tu resteras
The whores of death
And God's masters
And all those madmen of fire
Will whisper words to you
From beyond
Une nuit de sabbat
(refrain)

Poètes perdus (Jean-Paul Gaido-Daniel / Myckaël Marcovic)

In Too Deep [Single]

There's Only 1 America

Awaken, confront your fear, and overcome it. Leave behind the boundaries of the past and break free.

awake!

Shut up and dance to the rhythm 
Because your problems won’t disappear easily
You have to climb the ladder
You may have to fall back down
To see the line that ends the race
It’s sad when you want to walk it
Just a little more speed
More speed

Body over mind
Over mind over skin over bone 
Keep moving
Until I say give out
Hurdle that like you own it
Jump a thousand feet cause why not

Shy like the lie that is a situation when you try to ask anyone for help
Because it’s always stand up for yourself or coward feels for real 
(Loosely)

But what’s real
Is that it’s fading
The more you shut your mouth and words
Inside you
Is just move body move
Move with little more speed
Please

Body Over Bone

Angelic Realms

Your spirit whispers like a draft in a moldering tomb.
You eye the dusty suitcase lying in the corner of your room.
To don your wings once more and pretend you are free,
as Autumn's wind again compels you to flee.

The parade of novelty for now keeps you engaged,
but the night leaves you pacing an empty stage.
Though the faces may change, the motivations remain the same.
All the traveling you do takes you to the same old place.

It's like thousands of writers coming up with the same old play:
the dream's consistent though the food has a different taste.
After a while you outpace even your favorite regrets...
you're a wandering ghost in a world of marionettes.

Every time you think you've found a home
it's just a place to fly away from.

MUSIC FOR THE THINKING FEW.

(NOTE: I only repost songs I REALLY like...and they usually don't involve an 808, misogyny or Autotune...and at my age I'm FAR more interested in quality connections with listeners than going "viral". ALSO: mostly an aging rock/folk/prog/indie guy...can't really judge or really relate to Hip-Hop, Auto-Tune and other more modern styles...sorry.)

John Ludi is a musician/singer-songwriter/cultural relic with a diverse and "arty" array of influences and lyrical interests who was "Indie" before the term even existed. Working outside of the music industry by choice has given Ludi the ability to release songs of a level of lyrical depth that are anathema to the current culture.  Ludi lives off-grid in a yurt in the woods of WI and finds the materialistic priorities of our civilization incredibly wrong and destructive.
