Mis en musique par mes soins au Studio d'Azy sur un texte de Dominique Joubert  .
à méditer…

Le 1er MAI

Le premier mai à Saint-Tropez
le long des quais des ouvriers ,
rêvant de yachts et de voiliers,
défilent sans manifester,
défilent sans manifester .

Le premier mai à Saint-Tropez,
tout au long jour férié chômé,
ils admirent les très beaux jouets
de ceux pour qui ils ont tant sué .

Ils espèrent devenir patrons
sans chercher d'autres solutions,
à leur tour regarder défiler
le premier mai à Saint-Tropez .

Sur l'eau glauque un soleil blafard,
des dollars qui flottent par milliards,
pour ces navires aux vitres noires
combien d'hommes ont perdu l'espoir, 
combien d'hommes ont perdu l'espoir .

A quel paradis ou enfer
ont-ils pu confier leurs affaires
symboles d'une réussite volée
exposés comme dans un musée .

Pour les uns, un rêve, une chimère
pour les autres un grain de poussière
quelle vertu prive d'embarcadère
celui qui rêve azur et mer ,
celui qui rêve azur et mer .

So it begins in 2/4 then the usual 4/4. First time trying out just a D vamp although the bass line does begin with E. I’m using a 70’s funk clav that Stevie Wonder probably uses a lot and some more simpler funk piano rhythmic variations than my WeChat piano instructor.  Then a chord progression where I pretty much follow the chords with the melody. For the E7#9 at the end I learnt that if you play an E9 half a step higher before it it sounds good so I tried that and I do think it sounds good. Chorus goes to D Dorian with a bit of ii-V in the first phrase. Horn section for the chorus is done based on feel. For the last line of the chorus I tried an ascending whole tone run where it went D-E-F# paired with a more diatonic horn run  but I don’t think the mixer liked some of the dissonance of the whole tone on the root notes so he emphasised the more diatonic notes. I was OK with that. For the guitar solo the first couple of bars contain the melody I sang in my head. Then I played a 4th degree dom9 arpeggio over the Dm giving it a dorian feel. Then some shred wank (tapping) that I improvised. Then my signature (note - xxx - note -xx - note - x) lick and another line I sang in my head to end the BPM back to something in the 90’s. There are some bebop notes played by this effect called ‘cinematic funk’ in the last chorus. I did prefer the previous mixer but only by a little.Better groove than the previous funk song but probably not better melody. Hopefully we’ll get both right on the next attempt.

Lyrically, just being naughty. Putting a positive spin on things.  I don’t particularly enjoy this role but a positive spin on things makes all things …positive.

I’ll be your backdoor man
Just don’t leave the condom in the bin post  a 1 night stand. (Some element of truth where this woman used to call it a 套套。a ‘Dom Dom’ if you will. I think it’s definitely your first time cheating on your husband when you leave it in the bin like that.)
You have love. To Offer me.
And I return it to you with dignity

Who’s that man with the croissant knocking on my door
The ashes from his cig fallin’ on the floor
And if I pay for dinner will my husband find out?
That his bank account is ebbing today 

I think one of the lines in the chorus i am singing is do you remember when I kissed your trauma twofold

Something to Believe In

It's a hobby now and I'm not active in the music thing, I have been writing electronic music for over 2 decades, my music has been on CD-ROMs, video games, independent productions, commercial speaker packages (COZO speakers of Japan), etc. etc. 

	I have been writing under a pseudonym, Kryptonic, since 1999.  I started writing my own original music starting in 1989.  With the increasing ubiquity of the Internet, I went from amateur to professional (used to get paid for it) in a very short amount of time. I specialize in electronica music, but I am not restricted to just that genre.  I also write orchestral, film, and world music as well as dance, EDM, trance, and everything in between.

I’ve developed these skills over a long period of time and long hours , my secret formula to producing and writing music is so secret even I don’t know how I do it to be honest.  It’s just an affinity, the grace of God and a lot of hard work and time. 

* sometimes it involves making a lot of mistakes and foibles but choosing the right mistakes somehow makes things work, it takes 10,000 hours to master anything and even then you're still accumulating knowledge and technique. That's approx 30 years of fiddling around. 

Sorry I don't get around to my Soundcloud page very often to read or answer comments and sorry for the inconsistent quality I can't mixdown to save my life. But every few weeks I get around to it.... Larry
