Where Did She Go ( I Wanna Know, 2022 )

This track is my spontaneous improvised piano soundtrack to a 17 minute video of the earth viewed from the International Space Station. The footage starts in the mid Atlantic and ends over the Italian Alps.

NASA make available the imagery that the astronauts aboard the ISS shoot and one of their favourite things is creating timelapse sequences. Being timelapse the earth flies by about 20 times faster than real time which although spectacular is not particularly relaxing. I noticed that videos were available on youtube which were beautifully smooth and playing at near real time derived from these sequences using software incorporating AI motion extrapolation to slow down the original timelapse sequences. I decided to have a go at this myself and after a bit of experimentation the video sequence with the accompanying soundtrack linked above is the result.

天狗伝説(Tengu legend)

After a trip through the Mediterranean with the paramour of my life years ago... these lyrics emerged as an expression of gratitude and love. Yesterday those lyrics found home in this new original composition.

Forever thinking about you and the family we've made baby.

@ The Garden Cafe ?

in
All has fallen silent - all has become quiet, 
Only for a brief instant 
Time stood still, 
Or at least it tried 
And into such a moment I dive...

1
Oh, sometimes
I would like to be able to see the world through your eyes.
The stars look so completely different from here and yet 
They are everywhere the same

ref
Oh, now I know not how to feel or what to be

2
Oh, sometimes
I miss a moment that I would have loved to have lived
And then I imagine that we could meet for a while, 
Sit in a garden cafe, have some darjeeling and scones 
With clotted cream and marmelade.
 
We can be silent for a bit and a bite, 
I know I would be quite attentive and listen carefully
Now and then I would certainly take a look 
And reassure myself: 
This isn’t really happening

ref
Oh no, now I know not how to feel nor what to be
And suddenly reality is so much different for me

3
Between the trees, with a pot on the teapot, 
Then the etagere with the sandwiches, 
cucumber and cress, 
The scones are of course warm and all is homemade 
And so very beautifully arranged and dressed.

Oh, sometimes
I wish i could travel thru space and time
Dreaming myself unto your side
And just sit with you and talk for a while…

ref+out
Oh no, now I know not how to feel nor what to be 
And i know that reality is so much different for me
Oh, so much different for me (2)

To My Children

Travel the world

I have to raise my head 
to meet your gaze
to tell you how much i'm proud
my child, my hope 

Seeing you is a feast
That s worth all the billions
the treasures of the earth
so, stay with me tonight 

I will tell you 
some fables and tales 
the most beautiful stories
at thousand miles around 

and i'll take you 
to travel the world 
without even moving 
just in few seconds 
if you stay with me tonight 

Time has betrayed me 
i measure how much i'm late
have i been a good father ? 
Well it's never too late 

doubts and regrets 
i have my cupboards full 
but you know how much i love you 
so, stay with me tonight 

And i will find 
your eraser and pencils 
at the bottom of a drawer 
your airplane models 

and i will take out 
 your songs notebooks 
your violin and my guitar 
and we'll sing them along
if you stay with me tonight 

and i'll take you 
to travel the world 
without even moving 
just in few seconds 
if you stay with me tonight

Happy 2023 everyone. I hope your year is starting off positive, creative and brimming with potentiality. Mine has definitely begun on a high note, getting to collab with our dear friend Carlos Vivanco (https://soundcloud.com/carlosvivanco-1, https://carlosvivanco1.bandcamp.com/). And after a full year of music lessons with this kind and generous soul, I’m finally feeling quite good about my music theory and piano skills (knowing full well, this is just me happily floating on the tip of the proverbial music theory/musical instrument iceberg). :)

This one in particular (for those of you who might be interested in the specifics) started with Carlos providing an impressively wild drum track, and a warm, rich bass track playing Ostinato in E (I wasn’t familiar with that term at first. But it means playing a singular note rhythm as a foundation for the rest of the song). From there, E Aeolian (or Natural Minor) felt like it provided the nicest fit to Carlos’s stems. I was able to play out many of the melodies you hear in this song with just a few takes, and very minor MIDI note adjustments after the fact. That is exciting beyond words.

So without further delay, I joyfully offer you my first collab of 2023 with one of the coolest folks you’ll find in this grand music community. Carlos and I hope you enjoy ‘The Nine Sentinels of Aeolis’. :)

The Nine Sentinels Of Aeolis | Carlos Vivanco & GrevusAnjl

Well, my good friend Paco dropped me a note to say he had a piece of music to which I might like to try and add something, were I so inclined.  Always a good day when that happens.

Now, I can't honestly recall the precise sequence in which the neurons fired inside my skull to yield the result we have here, but we are where we are as they say.

Don't go looking at me for rationale.

Thank you, Paco, as always my friend, for inviting me to come out to play, and for mastering the end result in the midst of untold techno-horror grief.  I hope your DAW world resolves itself very soon.

Socrates at Sundown

I lie bewildered, here, in my sphere of cubes,
On crushed silk cushions sprawled.
I sketch the cool Palladian dudes
In charcoal, on Aleutian walls.
They think I know what thoughts are theirs,
And beg to trade their graceless airs, 
But I left them there to climb their stairs
Ever downward through Athenian halls.

They say my knowledge is remiss,
The diabolical's back in town.
Seems ignorance is bliss
For this philosophical clown.
I'm seeking emptiness of mind,
That's where I hope to find
That old, old friend of mine,
Socrates, at sundown.

My associate, Plato knows the game
Survives through pretty dialogue
He suffocates but bestows his shame
On city states whose statutes fog
The heads of people in their ranks
Attentive on the Eridanos banks
Dispensing death by way of thanks
As justice shreds its cogs.

Deep mental grasp of social structure
No need to ever write it down
Accused outcast for youth's corrupture
Where the bleeding of democracy is bound
To seek the causal end of time
Of Aristotle and Nietzsche's kind
The men of Athens rendered blind
Killed that old, old friend of mine,
Socrates, at sundown.

Socrates At Sundown (with MidiSound)

so back in time again to the start of this brand new millenium , here is a very cynical inspection of this thing we call romance . I thought this would be timely to put out there.

Thumbing the nose at bad moods/anxiety. Who wins? The jury is not yet out. Just happy to have achieved a post, it has been a while.

What's that?
It's hollow inside
Can't believe there's nothing in there!
Yep, it's hollow inside
We've been tricked by social media
Hollow inside?
Keep it down or he might here you!
Yep, it's hollow inside
Hmm...

I just want to go back home
(I don't like it here)
I just want to go back home
(I don't like it here)

I just want to go back home
I just want to go back home
(I don't like it here)

What's that?
It's hollow inside
I just want to go back home
Can't believe there's nothing in there!
I just want to go back home 
It's hollow inside
(I don't like it here)

I just want to go back home
It's hollow inside
Can't believe there's nothing in there!
I just want to go back home
It's hollow inside
(I don't like it here)

cold shivers have bitten the flowers in the garden's mind
and the fever trees try to lighten the hall of the blind
the blind faith in progress decided on how the world runs
and sooner or later the killing of eden is done
 
it's no time for butterflies
when the whore of babylon is on the way to the sky
no time for butterflies
anymore

the trees are sending s.o.s. from the roots into the crown
and the creation's crown explains it was all the time the same, an up and down
but this time maybe it's a little bit different
when the sea breathes plastic we're close to the start of the bitter end

it's no time for butterflies
when the whore of babylon is on the way to the sky
no time for butterflies
anymore
