African Guitar Thingy is a Lo-Fi instrumental I recorded at home in 2011 while improvising freely on  bass and guitars around a click track. Created, to my ears, some nice melodies. The track is basically trying different triad voicings and picking patterns to see what would come out. 

African Guitar Thingy es una improvisacion en guitarras y bajo grabada alrededor de un click. Probando diferentes figuras de acordes contra una progresion fija de acordes

CAUSA Y EFECTO   (music & lyrics by Luis Torrealva)

Existe un punto intermedio
En medio del caos mi amor
Existe un mundo perfecto
Donde si cabemos los dos

La vida nos ha dado mucho hoy
Hay que saber guardar los recuerdos
La vida nos ha dado mucho hoy
Hay que saber vivir el momento

Yo se que has salido corriendo
De una fea situacion
Sentias el pecho vacio
Ya no sentias conexion

La vida nos ha dado mucho hoy
Hay que saber guardar los recuerdos
La vida nos ha dado mucho hoy
Hay que saber vivir el momento

Y el intento cambiar
Pero cayo de nuevo
otra vez, otra vez, otra vez, otra vez
Y decidiste dejarlo todo
No habia tiempo para mirar atras

Causa y Efecto 
Sigue tu pasion
Causa y Efecto
Ya va a reventar
Causa y Efecto
Mira que ya va a caer
Causa y Efecto
Viene y va, viene y va

Causa y Efecto
Sigue tu pasion
Causa y Efecto
Ya va a reventar
Causa y Efecto
Mira que ya va a caer
Causa y Efecto
Efecto boomerang, boomerang

CAUSE & EFFECT

There is an intermediate point
In the middle of chaos my love
There is a perfect world
Where we can both fit in

Life has given us a lot today
We have to know how to keep our memories
Life has given us a lot today
We have to know how to live the moment

I know you've been running
From an ugly situation
You felt emptiness in your chest
You no longer felt connection

Life has given us a lot today
We have to know how to keep our memories
Life has given us a lot today
You have to know how to live the moment

And then he tried to change
But fell again
And gain, again, again, again
And you decided to leave everything
There was no time to look back

Cause and effect
Follow your passion
Cause and effect
It is going to burst
Cause and effect
Look how it's going to fall
Cause and effect
Come and go, come and go

Cause and effect
Follow your passion
Cause and effect
It is going to burst
Cause and effect
Look how it's going to fall
Cause and effect
Boomerang effect, boomerang
