A boss is a person who exercises control or authority
But I don’t see how any of that applies to me

Cashiers who call me boss when I’m standing in the checkout line
I’m just an ordinary guy, I put my pants on one leg at a time
If you were a prisoner and I was a guard it would be okay to call me boss
But I’m just an ordinary guy buying some pasta and tomato sauce

I’m not your boss, and when you call me boss, I’m not sure how to reply
I’m not your boss, I’m not your boss, I’m just an ordinary average guy 

If I was the manager at the store who actually signed your paycheck
You could call me boss and I wouldn’t object
If we were working on a plantation in 1872
And I was in charge calling me boss is something that you might do

Maybe when they call me boss it’s a sign of respect
Or maybe they think it’s a really nice way to connect
But the way I see it calling someone boss is like calling somebody captain, sport or chief
If they could just call me sir, mister or Joe that would be a real relief

I’m not your boss, and when you call me boss, I’m not sure how to reply
I’m not your boss, I’m not your boss, I’m just an ordinary average guy 
When you call me boss, I can’t help but think that you’re mocking me
If you think I am the boss, then maybe I should get my groceries for free

A boss is a person who exercises control or authority
But I don’t see how any of that applies to me.

I'm Not Your Boss

I started playing drums at age 10 and was playing a drum set by the time I was 13. At 14 I started playing in a band and I have been playing in bands since then.  Started playing guitar and writing songs when I was 18. I currently play in a rockabilly/surf/early rock ‘n’ roll band called the  Fat City Rockers.

My biggest influences are the Beatles, the Doors, the Kinks, the Ramones, ￼￼￼￼￼￼the Sex ￼Pistols and David Bowie. My songwriting tends to reflect more of my classic rock influences than my punk but both influences are there, mixed with a hint of country. ￼￼

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. 
All songs are originals and copyrighted.

The Serenity is a studio project somewhere between wave and pop music.
Thank you for being here and for listening. Comments are always welcome.

An Epic Novel. A Sonic Universe. One True Story.

Welcome to the sonic universe of "Behind Us The Land" (Hinter uns das Land). What began as a soundtrack for an epic historical novel has evolved into a global, cross-genre music phenomenon, celebrated by millions of listeners and a worldwide community of artists.

Discover the different worlds within this project:

The official soundtrack to the 80-year true story of the Feyerabend family.

The epic progressive metal of the virtual band Adelheide's Wisdom.

The chart-topping indie pop of the virtual artist Ulla F.

Helmed by author, producer, and lifelong music curator Frank Talmon l'Armée, this project is the result of a deep-seated passion for music and storytelling. As the human visionary, he employs a hybrid method of traditional songwriting and the pioneering use of AI tools as his "orchestra" to bring this monumental saga to life.

This is a place for deep listeners, for fans of epic stories and genre-defying music. Dive in, explore the albums and playlists, and become part of a story that connects the past with the future.

At its heart, 'Behind Us The Land' is more than just the 80-year story of one German family. It's a universal parable about loss, resilience, and the unbreakable will to build a new home from the ruins – a story that repeats itself tens of thousands of times every single day, all over the world. Our music aims to give a voice to this universal experience and to inspire courage.

A Beyond & Before Music production.

HS Recordings is a small label in the making, it was organized back in 1999, and behaved like a Phoenix bird. It soared with a musical opus, then fell to the ground. The label was organized by two friends Jan Slavov (Dj UNO) and Sergey Ptitsin (  ZARINE, S13, NIR300, PTITZYN ...) on the basis of the HAVANA CLUB institution in St. Petersburg. Life has been swept away by comrades around the world, but the idea of ​​the label is still alive and is being realized again. The label, as from the very beginning, is engaged in interesting projects  preferring electronic music. ZARINE was one of those who stood at the source in the 90s  Drum and bass in the culture, and today promotes broken rhythms in massy.Sozdav recording studio, has been mixed and the release material of other musicians of different napravleniy.Currently the label is looking for sponsorship to enter the market as the capable UNIT.

Je me nomme Mathieu Torres et je suis par ailleurs guitariste et compositeur dans différents projets artistiques
(La théorie des cordes / M'Z / Matziz / Zhorhann/ The Diogenes  ...)

Ici l'objectif est d'arpenter des terrains plus cosys, calmes et poétiques, jonglant entre old school et modernité, porté par un son de guitare rond, vivant, chaud, organique...
