what ur doing makes my happy Kurt...keep on...

"Will be more worried if I stop writing them" then don't stop-we are behind you all the way!

I dig your sound and delivery. Great track, Kurt.

Yeah man this is beautiful work! Your voice reminded me a lot of John Cafferty, particularly his tone on ballads such as NYC song. This is a great song and a fine ballad/tribute to your partner. Bravo!

Your Mix 5

Lyrics

You told me that you were in pain
You told me that you were lost
But I.....
I didn't want to listen
I didn't want to listen
Or understand the cost

You told me that I leaned too hard
You told me you needed space
But I....
I didn't want to listen
I didn't want to listen
And now you are far away

Can you please forgive me
I was lost and out on my own
Can you please forgive me
For you....
You are my soul

You told me that you were broken
You told me the loss was profound
But I...
I didn't want to listen
I didn't want to listen
But I'm listening now

Can you please forgive me
I felt lost and out on my own
Can you please forgive me
For you....
You are my soul

You are my soul

Lost

It’s all around
Daylight breaks on frozen ground
And I've never told you
How good it feels to grow old with you

The night is cold and hard as steel
But you and I will never feel
The silent night the shivering morning
This burning ember heats our home

Its all above
An icy wind. A burning sun
And I’ve never told you
How good it feels to come home to you

The night is ours. It’s short but sweet 
And desperate hours before the week
A daily grind a cold design
This burning ember heats our home

So cry out
What's wrong with the world?
Why can’t they see
Things like you and me?

It’s all around
Daylight breaks on golden ground
Have I ever told you
How good it feels to have grown old with you?

The night is hard and cold as steel 
But you and i will never feel
The hardened heart, the cold of shoulder
This burning ember heats our home

It's All Around

Lyrics:
The Fog 

Is this me?
What’s it mean?
That I’m floating?

When I’m floating…

Living light and warmth
In your arms I can feel
My cares disappear
I can see in your eyes
A sincerity that I’ve only
imagined in this life

I feel helpless
Inside the waves
Of pain, they
Come billowing down
Billowing down, billowing down
I am minuscule in a daze
Unfazed
And it’s weighing me down
Weighing me down
Weighing me down

And I know it’s just the mention
Of perceived fog
But I need redemption
Cuz I know if my intentions checked
out they’d be wrong

I feel helpless
Inside the waves
Of pain
Come billowing down
Billowing down, billowing down
I am minuscule in a daze
Unfazed
And it’s weighing me down
Weighing me down
Weighing me down

Is this me?
What’s it mean?

I can see in your eyes
A sincerity that I’ve only
Imagined in this life

Though I know it’s just the mention 
Of perceived fog.

The Fog (Feat. production by 12 Below)

Santa got Wankered

This song sprung out of a practice session, with the lyrics, especially the first verse, just tumbling out.
It's another love song for my partner.  Can't seem to stop writing them, but that's how much she means to me.  Will be more worried if I stop writing them.  
Hope you enjoy it.

White Christmas (Irving Berlin cover)

the waves are fallin' over my head
the waves are crashin' over my head
you pull yourself up by the bootstraps
'n collect
take inventory of
what remains

the waves are crashin' over my head
yeah, how I even got out of bed

it's funny how time can cure your deepest ills
it's funny how denial can keep you well

the waves are crashin' over my head
the whitewater leaves you spinnin' down

Belle on flute :)

Funny Kind of Sad

if ya don't know where you gonna go
how you gonna ever place it

if ya don't ride with the moonlight
how will you know that the time has arrived

so rise
and shine

if you don't know how to unload
how ya ever gonna take off

if you're undone check into the sun
maybe you'll make your way up

so rise
and shine

how do ya know
if you don't know
how do you grow
if you don't show
what do ya say
what are you for
under the sun
everything's wonderful

so rise

if you don't wait you won't be late
take a little time to contemplate

let it go 'n see where it all shakes out
'til you really know what it's all about

so rise
'n shine

rise

I originally recorded this track in 2001 when my friend Molly and I formed the "Moving Air" project.. @moving-air
This is the 2024 remastered version.
Composition, arrangement, instruments & vocals: c r u m i u s

Fantasiewelt

Ich sitze hier und grinse
zusammen mit John Lennon auf einer Insel
wunderbar, auch noch da ist Kurt Cobain
und vor ein paar Tagen erst, habe ich auch Elvis gesehen

Was, das wollt ihr mir nicht glauben?
Doch, meine Fantasiewelt, die könnt ihr mir nicht rauben
Alles so schön rund, kunterbunt und gesund

Jeder weiß alles, brauchen tun wir nichts
Geliebt wird das was gut ist, kein Gezeter, keine Tricks

Wir können vor dem schlafen gehen Schafe zählen
Müssen uns nicht durch die Tage quälen,
Wenn du Lust hast, dann mach was,
wenn nicht, dann lass das

Ich grinse als bestände die Luft nur aus Lachgas
Ich grinse als bestände die Luft nur aus Lachgas

Keine Armut, kein Streit, keine Kriege
Keine Armut, kein Streit, keine Kriege
Keine Armut, kein Streit, keine Kriege

Ich schließe meine Augen und Fliege
Ich schließe meine Augen und Fliege
Ich schließe meine Augen und Fliege
---------------------------------------

Fantasy World

I sit here and grin
on an island with John Lennon
wonderful, Kurt Cobain is also there
and just a few days ago, I also saw Elvis

What, you don't want to believe me?
But you can't take my fantasy world away from me
Everything is so beautifully round, colorful and healthy

Everyone knows everything, we don't need to do anything
What is loved is what is good, no complaining, no tricks

We can count sheep before going to sleep
We don't have to torture ourselves through the days,
If you feel like it, do something,
if not, then leave it

I grin as if the air was made of nitrous oxide
I grin as if the air was made of nitrous oxide

No poverty, no strife, no wars
No poverty, no strife, no wars
No poverty, no strife, no wars

I close my eyes and fly
I close my eyes and fly
I close my eyes and fly

New mix of our Nick Drake-inspired folk song. (Added violin parts and vocal section)

Bodies

Cast of characters:
Well-- @user-370942421-686440500 – Hakan – synth, beat, and seed idea
Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur– guitar
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez– guitar, mix, and production 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –five-string fretless bass guitar, synth

This song began with Artur inviting Josh onto a project that he and Hakan had just started that consisted of the beat and a synth line—the one that opens the song—supplied by Hakan. Josh added his five string fretless bass to it first, coming up with an idea of how it could sound. Then, Josh asked Tez to get in on it, too, because Tez not only has an affinity for the genre, but an aptitude for it, as well. After Tez laid down his hot guitar, Josh went back and played his idea, but accounted for Tez's jamming, too, this time. After the basic tracks were done, Artur brought his vibrato/delay guitar magic to the jam, too. Then, Josh added the various synth voices that you hear throughout. ​
  Every great song needs a great producer, and Tez was the man for this job. He brought it all together and used our various parts like a conductor uses different parts of a symphony. This is the fist song that Tez and Josh have done with Hakan. Artur and he are musical partners, so if you dig this song, you would probably like what's on their pages, too. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
