Dead can't dance with Jennifer Roe

Inspired by a particularly emotional sequence during an episode of Rick & Morty, I took to my DAW to lay down my own version of the background music and took the liberty of adding 2+ minutes of vaporwave / dance track to the end.  My interpolation of the "Sad Rick BackStory" music. Only in my version, he finds and kills the s##t out of Evil Rick and Evil Morty. Enjoy....      

P.S. I would absolutely love to score a sci-fi space themed movie or animation project one day. If you're making one, hit me up. ;)

The Death of Evil Morty (Rick's Crybaby Backstory and revenge)

It's a breakup tune, with angst, what more can I say?  Making music that is unique, yet audible influences can be heard, is everything. 

YOU'RE GONNA MISS ME
(c) JunkHeap Oct 01 2021 / Remix/Remaster May 2025

It's such a nightmare being dumped, 
breakups are never easy. 
Insecurity feeds.
I know who I am,
I didn't deserve it,  
what you did to me.

The pain it turns, 
it's like a dagger twisted.
Til my heart bleeds.
I see your toxic,
convoluted optics.
So glad I'm free.

You're Gonna Miss Me.

Stone cold, not sure if you're alive.
Well, you made up your mind,
and it's goodbye.
I need to leave you in the past,
I must have been blind.
My soul gives me a high-five.

You're Gonna Miss Me.

You're Gonna Miss Me

My sister and I wrote this rather jazzy track a few moons ago. Was recently remastered by my lovely Sander. We hope you enjoy this instrumental number full of gorgeous strings from my big sister Jane. 😊🎶❤️🎻

The great philosophical question: Why is not nothing? Can the answer be found in this track? Perhaps... you have to listen carefully! ...otherwise you can also dance well on it. Howsoever: enjoy it !!!

Lost Civilisation

Jung believed that death is not the end, but a transition to a new state of being. He also thought that we can find meaning in life by exploring our unconscious and discovering our true self. I'm fascinated by his ideas that inspired me for this song.

Death

A few weeks ago, Anna B May called for a remix competition to remix her song "In Another Life".

As you can see, my entry was unfortunately not among the winners. But I had a lot of fun and the words of appreciation from Anna, Kasique and lost.empathy were reward enough.

Feel free to watch the live contest with all the participants:

Coward feat Brad Mehldau

"Starting Over" (demo v2)

Made and played by me on August 16 and September 12, 2024, using sounds e.g. from Yamaha Montage 8 (TX816 Electric Piano), Keyscape (Roland MKS-20 EP sound), Arturia Jup-8 V and UVI SonicPass (Emulator II, Marcato Strings sound).

Edited a little on September 12, 2024 (changed melody a bit & added and modified some chords, added some chorus etc.). Mastered with Ozone 11 on September 12, 2024.

I'm also working on an instrumentalized version. Also, this song could maybe use some lyrics, and it is still something I have to look into. All comments would be more than welcome, especially regarding the melody (it seems that good melodies are pretty challenging to develop).

As two sources of inspiration here I could name Luis Miguel's versions of the songs "Toda una vida" (by the great Osvaldo Farrés) and "Ese momento" (by the great Armando Manzanero).

did it take some time after 
even as they did play?
did it take some time after 
or was it all just a laughter?
did it not take you by surprise
how my world wells with tears?
just thinking about it 
how the mess begins, darling 
how the mess, the mess begins, darling 

only there in the night 
when it starts to fall 
only there in the night 
do I see my fault 
only there in the night 
incognito deal 
only there in the night 
deliberate deal 
only there in the night 
reaction is served 
only in serving the cause of all causes 
only in serving the cause
does the dust settle 

how long will it take me
only to feel for you?

Smog Part One

The Music Video

Smog Part One (video on youtube)

Creator and conductor of electronic and orchestral music: "In the best moments, in the flow, we are guided by heaven".

Creative Stations:
70s: My first tape deck at the age of 8. I created batches of mix tapes—much to the chagrin of my parents and neighbors.

80s: A mixer and two turntables. Even more to the chagrin of my neighbors. A short stint as a DJ at the Munich club Black Box—until the club went bankrupt... oh, oh.

90s: Creating my own music with Cubase 1.0, an Atari, and a Korg M1 synthesizer (no music theory, no teacher). The results were quite trivial… and it wasn’t the equipment, lol.
And then, yet another club where I worked as a DJ went bankrupt—oh dear!

That was too much: A major crisis, sold my equipment, took a long break—just listening to music and dancing. Then came philosophy, photography, and graphic/web design.

2018: A life without making music is possible but, for me, pointless!
A fresh start with Cubase Pro, new equipment, and new energy.

NOW: I feel at home!!!
A huge thank you to my wife for her love, support, and patience, to my Zen teachers for their spiritual guidance, and to the amazing SoundCloud community for their inspiration and support.

Music that inspired me and that I still love (chronologically):
- Beatles
- Sweet
- Electric Light Orchestra
- Pink Floyd
- Simple Minds
- The Cure
- Depeche Mode
- Yello
- Anne Clarke
- Vangelis
- Faithless
- Moby
For some time also contemporary classical music such as the composers:
Igor Strawinsky, György Ligeti, Arvo Pärt, Rebecca Saunders, ...
...and last but not least the many great artists on the soundcloud. Especially:
- Electrometis https://soundcloud.com/fiona-greasley
- c r u m i u s https://soundcloud.com/crumiusmusic
