that voice could melt butter lol, great musicianship and excellent production

superb job on the vocals Josh...love that upright bass sound and the acoustic is perfect.

You picked a great one Josh....this version has a little bounce.  So nice.  Used to like Neil Diamond's rendition back in the day.

Back for another listen. Yes, that Ibanez sounds perfectly suited to this magically sweet performance Josh. I swear you should be famous!! Maybe you are...🍻

really really nicely done, as are all the songs you've posted here!

this song has been mixed very well! the high end is cleeeaaannn! fantastic movement and song dynamics too! the lyrics tell a real story and feel true to the human experience. altogether hits all the marks and is a perfect song.

I haven't heard this in many years , thank you , superb version !

My inner secret stach

Weeping crown

The Traveller From Nowhere.

======================

When I was a teenager I loved to write. Sometimes it was poetry, other times short stories, other times it was songs, and I even imagined their music, accepting that perhaps I would never hear them performed. Finally, he also expressed moods, experiences, concerns and desires through simple strokes.


Based on a written line, 5 years ago, I composed music about one of those texts.

Now, thanks to the collaboration of my friend Peter, his impeccable translation, diction and correction of the text, I have been able to incorporate and modify said composition, but, obviously, with text in English.

Thank you Peter, again, for your enthusiasm and help.

Lyric.

The Traveller from Nowhere

Like a whisper that drifts on the breeze. Our eyes fixed on each other,
watching time slither by. Time that ends beyond the lifespan of people and
the backdrop of their murmuring.

It seems I don't know where I'm from or where I'm going. I think and feel like
the traveller from nowhere, either crossing great distances, or, perhaps,
locked in a tiny room. Never to leave.

I imagine I am someone I am not, incarcerated and blind, ignorant of the
counting of the days, a spectator watching his own life trickle past himself,
wasted.

Thus I become a random observer from here, my place, failing to understand
with my diffuse logic all that surrounds me, and the banalities of the human
condition: evil, value, love, desires, and countless other emotions, character
traits.

Indeed, I am suffused with these emotions, emotions on which I greedily
feed, trying to comprehend, dissect and analyse the secret triggers that
generate them, all within an eternal search whose horizon is infinite. So, in
the end, when all is said and done, I realise that I know neither where I'm
from nor where I'm going... then, and only then, finally, do I grasp my destiny.

I am the one who once was somewhere, or possibly not. The one who
imagines worlds and lives but never really lives them. The nomadic one who
becomes that curious traveller from nowhere; surreal, anonymous, ethereal,
imaginary……drifting on the breeze.

The Traveller From Nowhere (2023) Narrated By Peter

# Indie Electro vibe 
 
New single Shape Shifter to be released on 16th November all major streaming services. 
A song based around relationships 
that move and change due to different circumstances to suit the mood. And how ever toxic that might be there’s always an element to missing these people when you say goodbye.
A Shaper Shifter indeed ! 


V1
You moved your face to rest 
upon  my cheeks
And I could feel your eyelashes tickling making me weak 
It made me flutter with electricity 
I knew this moment was the last
one for me 
If just one more night before you leave 
The bed will be to big without you my darling your in need 

Chorus 
Shape shifting chameleon
You go from black to white
Every single night
You go from blue to green 
Depending on the scene
Whatever colour takes you 
As long as your seen
Red to yellow back to green 
shape shifting chameleon 
if you know what I mean


Verse Bridge
If just one more night before you leave 
The bed will be to big without you my darling in need 

V2
And when I touch the cold pressed white cotton sheets
It’s a reminder that’s were you used to sleep 
And maybe I’m a little deluded into thinking you’ll come back
After all that’s been said and done Im the man who told you to pack
It’s not because I was punching above my welter weight
It was the fact that you’re always showing a different face 

Chorus 
Your a Shape shifting chameleon
You go from black to white
Every single night
You go from blue to green 
Depending on the scene
Whatever colour takes you 
As long as your seen
Red to yellow back to green 
shape shifting chameleon 
if you know what I mean

Outro

Your a Shape shifting chameleon
You go from black to white
Every single night
You know what I mean

The Last Thing on my Mind

Tired of cold short days? Me too. Let's party!!  I haven't posted anything new in a while so here's a 10 year old tune that will be new to some of my peers, and those who've heard it have already gotten over the shock. This is an exercise in licentious sexual innuendo and lewd, funky sounds. It's what happens when an otherwise innocent childhood is spent listening to Jimmy Castor Bunch, New Birth, Slave, James Brown, Funkadelic, etc, and there are some biblical metaphors thrown in for good measure. It can be downloaded in case I decide to run for Governor and need to quickly hide all scandal.

OK where does this nonsense come from? 

"There's a primordial dread and fear of the power of the Feminine expressed in the feckless desire to dominate and control a situation that the poor fool just oughta accept as way beyond his own meager forces."  -- Carl Jung

TASTES LIKE CHICKEN
I went down to the melon patch 
gonna find myself a big 'un
it was Saturday morning and the sun was shining 
and I was ready for diggin'

there she was alone with her hands around a vine
sunlight shining through her summer dress I said my my my

my name is Daisy hope you don't mind
that I'm down here pulling on your vines
now if you please may i keep on pickin?
and one more thing I taste like chicken

she was in my melon patch already picking
and now she tells me she tastes like chicken
this could be the thing that I've been missing
now here's a girl that tastes like chicken

she followed me home with a couple juicy melons
I said baby where you are from but she wasn't telling
now something about her story just wasn't clickin'
I know a lotta girls don't none of them taste like chicken

back in my kitchen I cut the rind
it was pink and juicy on the inside
she said baby just a minute
I need to step outside before we get in it

she went outside behind a big old tree
I was following close behind but I didn't let her see
then I heard something that blew my mind
she was talking alien on a radio line

she came back in through the front door
wearing nothing but a smile
I know she's an alien
but I'll let it go for now

now I'm not sure how it's gonna all work out
I still got my extraterrestrial doubts
but man she looks good standing in my kitchen
and she tastes like chicken

Tastes Like Chicken

Portal To Another World

Music composed in 2014 only with native Music Studio 2 instruments.

Back then I only used MS2 and Alchemy.

One of the last compositions before using kv 331 and other synthesizers.

It is fully remixed and equalized.

I have 7 new tracks, but due to the covid 19, I can't edit them properly in my "sound studio", which is no other than my car.

It’s an old theme, but I will appreciate your opinions.

Take care.
