Toaster

Listen my last track featuring Marin Cortial, musician of "Time to swing" band. "Follow me" is a jazz & blues track. All instruments composed and played by myself, except keyboards (Marin Cortial).

Follow Me

Similar to R I.P.  A bit of fun with a Dylanesque type blues.

A Little While

Project RESIDUE (As the Crow Flies)

Midnight Racing

Emilio, https://soundcloud.com/stranger-something and https://soundcloud.com/olla-de-insomnio , sent me this wonderful instrumental with the hint that „…at some point it had occurred to me that it would be called "When I see you“…“ 
I had a lot of fun writing and singing along to it. 
A Big Thank You for the great music, mixing and mastering and also artwork. It was an honour and a great pleasure...

When I See You

1
When i see you
I could almost puke
When I see you
A strange shudder goes through and through 
When I See You
My head turns bloodred
While the world shifts in two halves
None of them would last
Without the other one…

2
When i see you
And that happens now and then again
It’s too uneasy to explain

My knees tremble
My mouth is all dry
My tongue is paralyzed
I break out in a sweat
I have to look at the ground
My breathing gallops
And then my heart, that pound
And am all agitated

I avoid all pictures of you
Try not to think about it too much
Close my inner eye, too…

3
When i see you
And that happens now and then again
Oh, it’s so uneasy to explain

My knees tremble
My mouth is all dry
My tongue is paralyzed
I break out in a sweat
I have to look on the ground
My breathing gallops 
And then my heart that pounds… ahh…

solo

4
You never talk to me
No reaction you show
Just stand somewhere off silently, 
Peripheral,
In the background
Wthout a sound

How can I see what is not there ?
How can I remind what never took place ?
How can I feel that i was close to you,
Even if that was unreal ?

And if I’d see you
As a monster,
As a hypocrate,
As a drama queen ?
And if i’d see you
As a mirror image,
As a saviour,
As a lover … ?

out
When I see you
Oh, when i see you
It’s so uneasy to explain
It’s too uneasy to explain…

When do I see you ?
When will i see you ?
When will i see you again ?
Ohh

When I See You (wt Stranger Something)

These vocals nearly killed me, more of a songwriter than a singer. Next song I write might only have a 3 step range!...Dementia, Alzheimer's is a terrible reality for so many. I wrote the first verse from the perspective of the afflicted one and the second verse from the caregiver’s . The cover art is being created before I release on the streamers in early 2025, but here it is for meySoundClouders. I promise, the next song will be a more joyful tune...I hope!

Falling

Cool Walking Man

Give in

Are you awake?
It doesn’t matter anyway
I pull the brake
It’s neither Monday nor the lord’s day

Pretty little thoughts
Surrounded by knots
Bombshells and fears 
Crowded people that cheers
Is it time to give in?
Watch the others spin?

I think you’re awake
Does it all make sense?
I think we release the brake
It’s for our own defence
I have no faith in the politics
Nevermind, it was a joke
But I’m afraid of the reaper
And I think we’re broke

Give in

I started with a guitar loop and then built up from that using a few brass loops to add panache.
The idea wasn't to sound like spy movies, but by the time I finished this little ditty, Marivi said, "It sounds like a spy movie". 
It must be all the slow horses I've been reading lately; I can't get them out of my mind. 🙄

Recorded on a mac using Logic Pro.
The original guitar loop was recorded on my iPhone directly from my Tanglewood acoustic.
I then looped that into Logic and began writing little keyboard accompaniments. Added some classic Fat Boy slim samples and called it a day

A drink, Dear?

'good to know'

Babe, my brain keeps storming ways
that you could be lying to me once again.
Why do I feel like such a fool?
Am I merely your tool for use? 
And, if so, how could you be so cruel?
And, what exactly is it that's your fuel
that you possessed to motivate you
to do all the fucked up shit that you do?
Well, it's true. 

Babe, I can't help 
but to be spiraling down
into all of the things that go on around.
I can't just simply ignore the sound.
I feel I can not go pound for pound
with all your bullshit that's laying around.
So, why bother making a sound?
Because, amidst this, maybe I will be found,
and come around. 

Nothing you've done shows that you loved me
after the lies that I have come now to know.
You claimed that no one else was above me
but when I was with my kids or off working, you'd go off and cheat on me, yo. Good to know.

good to know
