Lyrics:
.
When you need me - far away
Say my name I'll be there today
I hope you know it's with Gods I play
Open your eyes it's a blissful game
. 
(oh)
.
Time together, time we share
Nothing to do but be aware
Hope you see how much I care
Open you eyes and take me there. 
. 
(oh)
.
Focus! Focus!
Focus! Focus! 
Focus! Focus! 
Love is in the air! 
.
Focus! Focus!
Focus! Focus! 
Focus! Focus! 
Love is in the air!

Blissful Game (2023)

Le test est une chanson qui a 10 ans  qu'on a remis au goût du jour. Nous la dédicaçons a notre fils Eden. Bonne écoute. Vos retours sont les bienvenus. Nous vous offrons le download pendant quelques jours.
Le titre est susceptible d'être modifié , il y a peut être un peu trop de kick ????

LE TEST (Absynthus)

(Master Update 02.03.24)

We make promises 
that are not kept.
To love us, to be faithful to us,
until the last day. 

I'm torn inside 
Was i really that blind?  
My memories of good days 
Make me sad today

Reality dulls 

How could it get so far?
What has happened to us? 
All the questions that torment me 
When the time is up 

I'm torn inside 
Was i really that blind?  
My memories of good days 
Make me sad today

Reality dulls 

My world is broken.  
My dreams conjure up madness.  
The wheel of time keeps turning.  
My heart has to accept this 

I'm torn inside 
Was i really that blind?  
My memories of good days 
Make me sad today

Reality dulls

Reality (Steel&Nylon)

I jump out of bed every morning eager to continue the fight.
There’s so many wrongs in the world today.
I want to try make them right.
All those negative people out there, I pretend they don’t exist
The more times they tell me no, the harder I persist.

Life keeps trying to knock me down.
But as soon as my body hits the ground.
I bounce back up with a grim smile on my face.
And I lurch on forward slightly dazed with a sense of purpose only I can see.

I’m gonna focus on what’s important, I’m gonna stay above the fray.
Every obstacle I encounter, I’ll push it out of my way.
If anybody tries to stop me, like a steamroller I’ll run them flat.
Like a boxer facing a TKO I’m goanna to jump up from the mat

I’m gonna put one foot in front of the other.
I’m gonna keep right on going.
I’m trying as hard as I can. 
I’ve got no intention of slowing.

I’m gonna to be as relentless as one of those zombies in the walking dead.
I’m not goanna let any negative thoughts creep into my head.

I’m gonna  make up for lost time. 
I’m gonna  squeeze the most out of every day.
And if I head down the wrong path,
I’m gonna a turn around and find a better way.

All those sacrifices I’ve been making.
Its goanna be worth the time I spent.
I’m goanna flap my wings as hard as I can.
I’ll continue my ascent.
They say the darkest hour is just before the dawn.
And if I hit a rough patch I’ll continue to push on


Life keeps trying to knock me down.
But as soon as my body hits the ground.
I bounce back up with a grim smile on my face.
And I lurch on forward slightly dazed with a sense of purpose only I can see.

I’m gonna unlock the door to my cage and set myself free.

„Worte des Wasserfalls“ (11.05.2024 )

Diese Komposition entstand so ca. 2015 aus meiner frühen Schaffensphasen.
Die ersten kompositorischen Versuche mit virtuellen Instrumenten eine musikalische 
Klangwelt entstehen zu lassen.

Ein kleiner Fluss in den Weiten des Dschungels wird von Flussbiegung zur Flussbiegung immer reißender bis er vereint in die Tiefen eines Wasserfalls wieder zu einem ruhigen Fluss wird.


Vielen Dank für Eure geschätzte Aufmerksamkeit.

“Words of Waterfall” (May 11, 2024)

This composition was created around 2015 from my early creative phases.
The first compositional attempts with virtual instruments were a musical one
to create a sound world.

A small river in the vastness of the jungle becomes more and more rapid from river bend to river bend until it becomes a calm river again in the depths of a waterfall.


Thank you for your valued attention.

Words of Waterfall

Now that I've been doing this  whole music production thing .. I was listening to one of my favourite  early works from awhile back  and decided to give this "passion incarnate" track a slight facelift...  Call it... Rated R from a new lens :)

Rated R (Extended Mix)

This Gift  (0715)  ft. Donna AI

MAKE THE BEST OF IT...
Build a solid empire from the top down 
haters drop like dominoes while I keep growing Strong 
doesn’t matter who’s right or wrong let’s get on with our lives 
Move On just let bygones be bygones

Bringing to the game innovations style and wit
we ain’t here forever let’s make the best of it 
times way too short let’s enjoy the rest of it 
I’m a keep doing me so I ain’t even sweating it

The lord threw me Lifeline—-coming through clear
Blue skies and sunshine—-feeling blessed I swear
—-thank goodness for the good times—-I’ve try my best
New territory and horizons—-to relieve my stress
More adventures to follow—-they will manifest 
Obsessed—-relentless—-committed—hard pressed 
it’s all or nothing—— I won’t settle for less——-
Just want to say thanks—-I feel truly blessed
Lifted is my spirit as the crowded--Room judges
Gifted is the reason that I hold no grudges
Drifted are my worries as I watch them float away
I practice my craft every single day
When the pressure is on I shine the most 
cause to me it's all downhill relax I coast
Lyrics like dope so don't give up hope 
if the pressure is on you know I can cope

The groove is all dreams—that’s a sign
Smooth like ice cream—tasty lines
Flows and rhyme schemes—-all the time
Know what I mean—-I get mine

Make The Best of it

Songs with a twinge of humor (and some a bit more serious).  
I do not use AI to create my songs. 
Recently I have had the urge to pick up my guitars (Taylor 114ce and Fender Squire) and I have been trying to use more guitar in my songs.  
My go to .vst plug ins are  EZkeys 2, EZ Bass and  EZ drummer 3) and my DAW is Logic Pro 11. 
I welcome your comments and enjoy listening to all the great music on SoundCloud.
