Gorgeous Jonathan--you and Wodwo make a beautiful team:)

got that inner life feel - and I'm a huge fan of the happenstance of improvisation- esp duet inprov

God I love the guitar on this..   it's so good. Nice mellow thought provoking playing..

■概要(Overview)
熱すぎて溶けてしまうくらいの情熱を持てたらいいね。
PrivateからPublicへ熱心に大名行列する。
I wish I could be so passionate that I would melt.
An enthusiastic procession of feudal lords from private to public.

「溶けるくらいに」Let's get passionate

溶けてしまうくらいに
打ち込めるものがあれば
それだけでいいわ

十二時を過ぎたころに
アタマにあふれる「I hate you.」
傷つけあうのはもうやめて
心を解放したならば今

幾重にも重なる
合わせ鏡の迷路
本物は自分だけ
燃えるように　溶けてる


好きなものをいくつか
そばに置いておけたなら
それだけでいいわ

人づての言葉信じ
正義の仮面で「I hate you.」
傷つけあうのはもうやめて
好きなものだけそばに置いていて

幾重にも重なる
合わせ鏡の迷路
映し出されたものは
燃えているか　溶けているか

■Lyrics
If there is something I can devote myself to so much that it melts, that's enough.

After midnight, the words "I hate you" flood my head.
Stop hurting each other. If you free your heart, now.

Labyrinth of mirrors overlapping one after another. The only real thing is yourself.
Melting like it's burning.

If I could just keep a few of the things I like close by, that's enough.

People who believe the words of others who don't know the truth and say "I hate you" under the mask of justice.
Stop hurting each other. Keep only the things you like close by.

Labyrinth of mirrors overlapping one after another. Is the reflected thing burning or melting?

Ignite your passion(溶けるくらいに)

Timeline
(Verse 1)
Timeline
Can I solve the puzzle? Does the answer even exist?
Is it abstract in the making 
options, choices taken 
where’s the voices?
It’s a cruel game we’re playing, 
did we ever have a choice?
never had a choice is what I’m saying
I know, the question as well, as the answer 
in time we’ll all understand the meaning as well, 

(Chorus)
the only answer is, 
the truth is infinity, infinity is the truth, 
the answer is the question, 
and the question is the root
why so absolute 
not to mention a reason to be, 
existence is infinity, and the truth will set you free, 
never before, never before 
infinite, choices…The answer is …more!

(Verse 2)
What was done in the past
Effecting us now,
 we walk different timelines,  But they’re way ahead …how?
Time vibrates, like tectonic plates!
Given shape to our lifelines, final fate
What’s the cause of it all?
The crisis of it all,    The axis, recall
We exist,   one in all, One and all
Everything and everyone…

(Verse 3)
🎵In a constant state of time,
Doesn’t matter when or where, 
you’ve traveled the timeline, 
existence is existence,
And who are we to say,
What will happen in the future,
If we didn’t exist—- today 
…..in this timeline🎵

(Chorus)
(interlude)

J'ai vu en toi mon amour, l'amour de ma vie
Soudain il m'a bien surpris, l'amour de ma vie

En quoi j'ai pu croire en ce thème, éblouissant phénomène

J'ai vu en toi mon amour, l'amour de ma vie
Soudain il m'a tout appris, l'amour de ma vie

Plus aucun doute ne me freine, j’avance enfin sans peine

J'ai vu en toi mon amour, l'amour de ma vie. 
Enfin je suis son cours, l'amour de ma vie

I felt like this one needed the extra time to unfold and develop in the direction it wanted to go, could be my longest solo piece yet! My songwriting process has moved almost entirely to Ableton Live and I'm find it to be such an inspiring workflow. This is yet another recent track where I'm having fun weaving in the guitar.

A Monday piano improvisation...Wishing everyone listening happiness today.

@TexMex-Shaman and I are back in action once again with another heavier industrial track. This one is particularly uptempo, probably our fastest song yet. Stephen's guitarwork is next level on here! And he's got an especially cool part toward the end featuring the ebow.

Lessons I've Learned

chasing a high, you just wanna feel alright
i will forgive and forget for you
i have done nothing to hurt you
when i do the same as you
suddenly you feel the way that i do
told me that your absent of mind
i cant seem to get you out of mine

i cant seem to get you out of mine
chasing a high
you just wanna feel alright

there's only so much i can take
is it pathetic if i stayed
your love seems to only come in waves

your love seems to only come in waves


chasing a high

Lately i cant seem to get you off my mind
I think of you, then need to know
When you'll stop and say hello
There's places to go, things to do
But I'm too busy lost in you

I was never looking, but I always find
Gum stuck to the undersides
Of all these deepest fears reprised
You bring me back from the brink of hell
When no one hears me cry for help
Now…

While waiting for all this time
Trying as I always might 

In the weeds, you pick me up when I get down
I fall of the edge of my seat, 
Aching for the day we meet
Again, what ifs i never knew
Are lonely, slowly coming true

I'll love you, my writers fumbled these lines
While stumbling blind, but we'll come through these times


All this time

A laboratory with an open bar and floating altar. Come on in! 

Here are various solo and collaborative projects - songs, soundscapes, live looped solo guitar improvisations. 

This project used to be called "imaginary friends", but it became too real for that name, as did many of you.

I hope you enjoy something you find here. Do feel free to be in touch, you never know what might happen.  

I also invite you to attend @hypnopompetus, a duo project with the illustrious Cheesemont Paisley-Paisley https://soundcloud.com/sel-sync, and Fictive Sisters, a transatlantic band with  the incomparable Wheelwright https://fictivesisters.bandcamp.com/album/immaculate-distraction.
