I had my mind stretched in the mind factory!!!

eerie. Feel's like the beginning of a spooky castle level on an arcade game.

I just stepped into a TV episode... no... no it was in mind! Weird...... but Fun!

Survivor ~ Track 7 ~ Back Online

Something clicks. The camera pushes in slowly on the protagonist's face as we see the shift happen. Grief and confusion give way to operational focus. Training fully takes over where emotion left off. His hands move across controls with precision. He's no longer just surviving - he's executing.

This was the first sequence where I opened things up. After six tracks of dark, tragic music, the sound needed to reflect the shift in the protagonist's mind. Multiple electronic arps interlock with spiccato violins and violas, creating sharp, precise rhythms. Brass doubles with synth saws for clean, focused chords that push forward with determination. Driving percussion anchors it all while a soaring piano cuts through - hopeful, action-oriented. He's locked in.

EVERYTHING IS DREAMABLE,
IF YOU TAKE YOUR LIFE INTO YOUR HANDS,
TAKE THE CALL DON'T TAKE FALL,
OR I'LL BE TALKING TO THE UNDERGROUND,

THEY WONT TAKE YOU FOR A LONGER DRIVE,
THEY'LL TAKE YOU FAR AND WIDE,
FAR AND WIDE,

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE,
MAY'BE JUST ONE WISH BEFORE GOODNIGHT,
YOU'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU MIGHT FIND,
A MIRACLE OR A SENSE OF GOODBYE,

OPEN YOU MIND AND FLY WITH ALL YOUR DREAM'S
THEY'LL TAKE YOU FAR AND WIDE,
FAR AND WIDE,
(break)
THERE'S A CHANCE THE COIN WILL TOSS,
BUT LEAVE BEHIND A TRAIL OF FAITH AND TRUTH,

THEY WONT TAKE YOU FOR A LONGER DRIVE,
THEY'LL TAKE YOU FAR AND WIDE,
I WONT TAKE YOU TO THE WRONGER SIDE,
I'LL TAKE YOU FAR AND WIDE,
FAR AND WIDE.

For a broken relationship, some slowly sinking ship or what we hope will only be a deadly, deathly blip.

Like I'm Still Alive

This is 'Like I'm Still Alive"  It is about someone having to put on a brave face even though they feel empty inside after his true love left them.  

Take Care!! Stay Safe!!


Lyrics;
I'm walking and I'm talking
Say Hello and goodbye
And I smile for the camera
like I'm still alive

But I'v been disconnected
Can't say how I feel
I go through the motions
The wound kept concealed

Laugh at the jokes
Slap my knee and high five
And I play all the games
Like I'm still alive

People around me
With stories to share
They talk through each other
Pretending to care

Absent the grave
No mourners to grieve
But inside I've been dead
Since the day I watched you leave

Gathered around me
My family and friends
The moon on the rise
The day comes to an end

But before they all go
And say their goodbyes
I smile for the camera
Like I'm still alive

Like I'm Still Alive

Lacking the latest tech I still enjoy slow methods & old gear: cables, circuits, knobs, switches, pedals, keys, played into a Roland VS. Hear it! :-) Collabs???
