Winds of change were blowing 
People’s anger kept on growing
Revolution was in the air
But King Louie didn’t seem to care

Inside the walls of Versailles
Everything was going fine
Outside people were starving
While the King Louie drank his wine

Let them eat cake 
Don’t care about the little people’s problems
Centuries have passed but the sentiment’s still the same

Royal blood flowing through his veins
When he faced that guillotine It must have felt so strange

History is written by the victors
And if you’re on the losing side
You could be Dr. Jekyll 
But they’ll say you were mister Hyde

Food clothing and shelter, People have basic needs
Better take care of satisfying them 
Before you move onto other deeds

Let them eat cake 
Don’t care about the little people’s problems
Centuries have passed but the sentiment’s still the same

Kings no longer control us we extinguished that flame
Now the corporations rule
We’re pawns in a  shell game

They give us our cake and we eat every single crumb
And they’re hoping it prevents the next revolution

Let Them Eat Cake

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.

Songs from the edge of somewhere. A place that doesn’t announce itself. You step in and can’t tell if you’ve walked into a protest, a party, or the end of something.

Conil’s music comes from the blues and from the life that followed it. A voice marked by the places it’s been.

People heard it early.
Danny Thompson said, “You don’t sound like anyone else.”
Tchad Blake still plays Strange Part of the Country.
Peter Green walked into the studio one afternoon and cut a track.

The record didn’t arrive with noise. It surfaced—four stars in Q Magazine, a Blues Matters cover, a single reaching number three on the U.S. Alternative Radio Chart.

The early years were England. Then came New Orleans, New York, Berlin, the Himalayas, Kilimanjaro.

The second album is close now. Marc Ribot on guitar. Danny Thompson’s final sessions. Tchad Blake in Wales.

Some things reveal themselves only at the end.

Rock,Techno,Ambient,Metal,EDM etc...
There is no border.
Enjoy freely!

Gino Di Nunno is a 66 year old guy from Greensburg, Pennsylvania. He can't sing, but since starting writing and recording his songs in 2016, he is improving. He is obsessed with Rock Progressivo Italiano, Orchestral music (Beethoven, Mahler, Shostakovich), Jethro Tull, Mercyful Fate/King Diamond, and Philosopy. Gino started playing guitar in 1976, but two years later he suffered a left-hand accident and lost 3 and 2/3 fingers (He also started dabbling with piano in 2016, though he doesn't consider himself adept he knows enough to make it sound good). He did not start playing again (as a left-hander) until 1980, and with very long practice sessions, he was able to start a band, taking the hard road by writing original material with his brothers and a few vocalists, where they played everything from Punk, Blues, and a mix of Progressive Rock and Metal.

The band of brothers decided to end their music pursuit in the early 90's to catch up with life. Gino decided to give music another try in the early 2000's and didn't start recording and releasing music until 2016, releasing versions of albums on Soundcloud where he had no idea what he was doing; however, each album saw improvement (yes...even his vocals) by learning through trial and error experimentation. 

Gino said the best advice he ever received was when a guy told him, "if you can't sing, make sure your lyrics are good so people will focus on them instead of your singing." Gino writes deep lyrics dealing with life struggles and predicaments, yet always with a bit of hope. He prefers to write small symphonies within a song, with lots of changes, added dynamics, and a breaking away from familiar forms and structures. He realizes he is not unique in breaking new ground, and that aging and long practice sessions has given him (at times) an aching right wrist which has taken away the speed he once had, and even with his spotty vocals his only request is that you dive deep into the songs because he insists something beautiful can be discovered.  (Antonella Gaspari)

"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
--Ephesians 6:12

"Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope by grace, comfort and strengthen your hearts in every good work and word."
--Thessalonians 2:16

Enter through the narrow gate. 
For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
--Matthew 7:13-14

For am I now seeking the favor of people, or of God? Or am I striving to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ.
-- Galatians 1:10

"No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon."
--Matthew 6:24

FREEDOM OF OPINION - FREEDOM OF THOUGHT - FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION

Some say I don't mince words. I sometimes say terrible things, as well as sweet and superfluous ones. I can love and hate, but I always maintain respect for those who love me or provoke me.

Currently, the world is changing dangerously. Those responsible are not always who we think. And those who deserve punishment are undoubtedly those who cause it, but even more so those who instigate it.

I like Americans and I like Russians. What I appreciate much less is the politics of these countries, their leaders, their underlings, and their administrations... In France, it must be admitted that things have been a real mess for the past few years, and there's nothing we can do about it. We joined the European Union, which now imposes its directives, which dark and idiotic "governors" implement without a word, since their countries are no longer sovereign.

We knew the USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics)... and now we are 27 countries in the UESR (Union of European Socialist Republics).

This UESR is a monumental mistake, not the very beginning, but the one it has become, an entity that relentlessly pursues its devastating expansionism, which also allows NATO bases in the countries of the union, and which the Russians consider a direct threat. Well, I understand them!

Remember the Cuban Missile Crisis from October 14 to 27, 1962, a diplomatic and military confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union was "too close" and represented a direct threat! It was almost the beginning of World War III, so the Soviet Union withdrew its missiles. Let the United States do the same now by withdrawing its NATO nuclear missiles, which it has deployed throughout the European Union.

The European Union promised us peace—which is, after all, why it was created—but now it wants war. It must be said that what the European Union has lacked (from the very beginning!) is a common defense, which was not the case for the former Soviet Union or even for the United States today.

The United States of Europe is like the frog that wanted to be bigger than the ox. Without a common defense, it is headed for certain doom, or it relies on NATO for its defense, but the game is no longer the same and would be much more dangerous for the entire world. This is where forced expansionism leads.

Peace on Earth to people of goodwill - ❤️🕊️🙏
