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


Music created in July 2024
Editing, lyrics, vocals and covert art by Winkandwoo.

The original idea came from the chorus of the music. I thought of an accordion to create it, but unfortunately I couldn't find a good sound for the iPad for this instrument, so I scrapped the idea and replaced it with a soft synthesizer with some depth.

My partner in adventures, on this occasion, did the rest with an impeccable job full of creativity and elegance.

Thanks Clive, again, for this gift.

Lyrics.

What are they feeding your mind
How are they seeding your kind

Illusion machine
It's bigger than you and me
Illusion machine
The demon's behind your screen

Why do they need you so much
When do they get in touch

Illusion machine
It's bigger than you and me
Illusion machine
The demon's behind your screen

ILLUSION MACHINE (Winkandwoo & Midisound)

Liquid Evolution (2024)

So many songs,so many themes,...seems to me that songs/poems/stories are meant to reflect our lives and feelings in a way that we can look at things in a different way or see our way clear through a confusing background

lyrics

a song can send you soaring in the sky among the stars
leaving all your woes behind and cover up the scars

a song can tell of new found love that sets your spirit high
or remind you of a love long lost and bring tears to your dry eye

a song can bring you back to earth hold a mirror to your face
put your fantasies of life into their proper place

Remind you of what's right and wrong and shine a light on what is real
won't let you hide in some safe place pretending not to feel

a song is what we all need in one form or another
different roles for different times like a father or a mother

but most of all what it does for us
is to explain the obvious
so we can live our lives in peace and stop wasting all this time

what's in a song

I think we are bound together by the commonality of life/existence which is the essence of God . In my mind religions have always seemed to distort this bond and create false differences/false fears/distorted perspectives .
This has resulted in countless brutal wars and persecutions of all mankind "in the name of god".
So let's look to ourselves and each other for guidance and comfort..in the end we all want the same things and there is more than enough in the universe to provide for all.

lyrics

In God we trust but in religion we hide
so our hate and fears can be justified
around the world religions exist
all claiming that their god is the best
and anything other than what they have
is false and vile and must not survive

but at the end of the day I am sorry to say
this god they all talk about is the same for us all
but it's meaning and purpose is distorted
by men who want to own your soul not save it

reach up and touch the stars
reach down and touch the earth
reach out and touch each other
It's here you will find the truth
that this god they all talk about
exists in each and everyone of us


our hopes and wants and needs and fears
are the same for us all
no need to fear each other
we need  bridges not walls

so listen to your heart
not false prophets or selfish leaders
who are only interested in your attention
not  in your salvation

where is God ??

Something we all need in order to feel more centered, more close to our inner soul.
Just close your eyes and let me take you with me in this beautiful spiritual trip :)

LYRICS(SPANISH) 
Que de malo en mi, no siento nada, 
no siento nada desde que te fuiste, no siento nada

Dos querpos en uno, tu piel tus ohos tus lavios, 
mi alma sangra, mia alma sangra cada vez que te requerda
extraño, la intimidad, extraño la intimidad

Mi alma sangra mi alma sangra cada vez que te requerda
extraño, extraño lo que tuvimos huntos 
Dos querpos en uno, tu piel tus ohos tus lavios 
Lo que tuvimos huntos,
No siento nada…

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

What's wrong with me, I don't feel anything, 
I haven't felt since you left, I haven't felt anything

Two bodies in one, your skin, your eyes, your lips, 
my soul bleeds, my soul bleeds every time I remember you
I miss the intimacy, I miss the intimacy

My soul bleeds, my soul bleeds every time I remember you
I miss, I miss being together with you
Two bodies in one, your skin, your eyes, your lips 
What we had together,
I don't feel anything...

Live Reflexion#027

The forest breathes in whispers,
its voice carried on the night wind.
Beneath the silver glow of the moon,
the trees stretch their shadows,
dancing softly on the earth.

A stream murmurs in the distance,
its waters flowing endlessly,
carving a story older than time,
a tale of life that flows and fades.

The leaves quiver,
caught between stillness and motion,
their fragile forms trembling in the moonlight.
Each drop of dew holds the universe,
a fleeting mirror of infinite beauty.

Beneath this canopy of stars and leaves,
a solitary figure walks,
their footsteps swallowed by the soil,
their breath merging with the cool, damp air.

The forest listens,
its silence alive with a timeless rhythm,
bearing witness to the brief spark of life,
a moment suspended in the vast embrace of eternity.

And as the moon climbs higher,
its light weaves through the branches,
illuminating the truth whispered by the trees:
beauty is fleeting,
but its echoes remain,
woven into the eternal fabric of the forest.

The figure pauses,
their gaze lifted to the sky.
In this moment, they are not apart,
but one with the forest,
their presence a flicker in its endless tale.

Starting a war, screaming, "Peace" at the same time
All the corruption, injustice, the same crimes
Always a problem if we do or don't fight
And we die, we don't have the same right
What is a gun to a man that surrenders?
What's it gonna take for someone to defend her?
If we all agree that we're equal as people
Then why can't we see what is evil?
I can't breathe
You're taking my life from me
I can't breathe
Will anyone fight for me?
How do we cope when we don't love each other?
Where is the hope and the empathy? 
How do we judge off the color?
The structure was made to make us the enemy 
Prayin' for change 'cause the pain makes you tender
All of the names you refuse to remember
Was somebody's brother, friend
Or a son to a mother that's crying, singing
I can't breathe
You're taking my life from me
I can't breathe
Will anyone fight for me? 

I been walkin'
With my face turned to the sun
Weight on my shoulders
A bullet in my gun
Oh, I got eyes in the back of my head
Just in case I have to run
I do what I can when I can while I can for my people
While the clouds roll back and the stars fill the night

I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I can feel it in my bones
I can feel it in my bones

(I m gonna stand up) I can’t breathe
You re taking my life from me 
I can t breathe
Will anyone fight for me?
(I m gonna stand up) I can’t breathe
You re taking my life from me 
I can t breathe
Will anyone fight for me?

I can’t breathe/ Stand up (mash up Cover H E R-Cynthia Erivo)

yeah, so here is another piano I made for you, an ambient..

Live Reflexion#028

The Clock

Dedicated to the early Christians possibly worshiping in the catacombs. Actually, the idea that the catacombs were used as hiding places is disputed. But I've used it anyway. And "damnatio ad bestias" did certainly happen.

*** Leaving Rome ***

The sand of the arena is warm and soft
and it will soon be soaked with the sufferings of life.
Simply to believe has become complicated,
but no man can hide forever in dark places.
Today I stand and open my arms to the upright Sun.
As brothers start falling, the crowd yells and asks for more.
I now contemplate my last and few unpleasant options:
The jaws of lions, the claws of bears, the cruelty of swords.
Strangely enough, there is peace in my soul.
No fears. No regrets.
One way or another, I'm leaving Rome.
I'm leaving Rome…

Summer Fools

Two fools, you and me,
Summer fools
We believed
Summer love
We believe
That the summer
will last a lifetime
endlessly

Summer fools, you and me
Like a split second
Can last an eternity

The sunrays warm our face,
Seawaves washing up and down,
This paradise this place
It feels like time erased every trace of summer love

el tiempo borrará todo rastro de amor de verano

summer fools (collab: The Bird Inside)

By the early dew
and the morning new
Let's play serious
By the crack of dawn
and the early yawn
We´re born

By the sea-shore breeze
and the things to ease
Let's play serious
By the warming sun
and the loaded gun
on the run

Let's play serious
with our eyes
Let's play serious
and be tight
Let's play serious
frivolous
dangerous
adventurous
Angel of ...

By Her Lioness
and her claw's caress
Let's play serious
For the ties professed
and the words confessed
We're blessed

By the Goddess Moon
and the month of June
Let's play serious 
By Venus and Mars
and a billion stars
Stars

Let's play serious
with our eyes
Let's play serious
and be tight
Let's play serious
frivolous
dangerous
adventurous
Angel of ...

For the times to heal
and the place to kneel
Let's play serious
for the summerrain
and the endless pain
We're sane

For the songs of love
and the things to come
Let's play serious 
in the clear blue night
and the feeling's right
We're tight

Let's play serious
with our eyes
Let's play serious
and be tight
Let's play serious
frivolous
dangerous
adventurous
Angel of ...

And for the times we falter
and for the thing to alter
Let's play
And from the crippled maybe
to forever, baby
Let's play
And for the record's spinning
and our bodies sinning
Let's play
And for the sounds of laughter
and forever after
Let's play
and for our bones decaying
and the words we're saying
Let's play

Lets Play Serious

Let's play serious

Looking back, I have to say that my maternal grandmother was my favorite storyteller. She didn’t tell fairy tales though; instead, she shared very vivid family stories passed down from her grandmother. Listening to her stories was like traveling around the world with a large cast of characters…ministers, coal miners, teachers, royalty, scoundrels and even a magician. While she’s been gone for over 20 years now, the stories she left behind live on.  Such is the magic of storytellers.

Harvest Moon by Neil Young All Rights Reserved 
Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin'
We could dream this night away
But there's a full moon risin'
Let's go dancin' in the light
We know where the music's playin'
Let's go out and feel the night
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon

When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart
But now it's gettin' late
And the moon is climbin' high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin' in your eye
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon

Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon

Brand NEW track "Thought I Was Dreaming", taken from the "Ultraviolet Cosmos" upcoming full length STA album (2025). Enjoy y'all #share, #like, #follow and comment of course. :D

Youtube: https://youtu.be/5TOaRZxQbGs?si=tAH31Rz_1uPP6dEn

lyrics:
I've been dreaming for so long
and never woke up back to reality
i never thought it could take so long
to learn such a solid morality

Thought i was screaming, nightmares dreaming
and it's time not to hide away
It's time for breathing, 
forget about those golden years so fly away

And then i opened my eyes and realize
that neon lights blinded my side
and it's time to get up my feet again
and regain what's mine and never let it again.

(p) & (c) STA, 2025.
