A youth work  recorded times ago on 4 tracks tape, and digitized recently 
I did my best to improve the sound so I ask all your tolerance... ^^
This music - and its title - has inspired the artist Nataly NGM to realize this illustration. Big thanks for her!

That's Just PPL Talkin

It's a one shot dearly precious thing
To be alive.


So glad to be here
Whole and sound
So glad I can be
Still around

I don't need your church or creed
To get me by
I don't need no alcohol or pills
To get me high

I don't need to fight with you
I don't need a gun
I'm doing what I was born to do
I'm having fun

I'm high on life

I don't need negativity
Don't drag me down
I'm the king of my own life
Don't steal my crown

Eyes wide open,high on life
That's when I thrive
It's a one shot dearly precious thing
To be alive

So glad to be here
Whole and sound
So glad I can be
Still around

I'm high on life

trucks and taxis
coming at you 
double dance move
get away
asphalt pinball
it’s a hustle

canvass bag

cop in bike lane

time is wasting 
run away

open car door
broken window
glass on pavement 
shitty day

chain links clicking

N.B. 11/07/2023: at last I think I managed to delete the more disturbing noises!! And keep quite the best of the recording ! Hope you better enjoy the song now 🎈 … and the new cover art 🤩 closer to the chorus ❤️‍🔥

it's been a dilemna to choose wether or not I would publish that track:
1. After hours and hours of work on mastering to remove the huge amount of noises on that old tape recording , it was only half a success...
2. I love this song!... despite its not perfect sound

Hope you’ll validate the option 2 :)

Bruno (future Loony) wrote the song, programmed drums, played the bass and the guitars, and sung.
Composed in July 16th 1989
Recorded in January 1992 on Yamaha 4 tracks

The song has been played live with the Catsbleed between 92 and 94, meeting a bit of success 🎈

WHEN I FIND MYSELF (LoFi Remastered)- Bruno C     -   Art cover: Nataly NGM

River And Falls

I wrote this song during the pandemic during lock down. I'm glad I do not feel this way anymore; however, you'll never know the good times if you don't have some bad. I really appreciated what Jessica Lloyd recently wrote about this song. You can check her review out with the attached link. Thanks for listening. 

"I loved the beat on “Dream #50” I’m not entirely sure if it was manipulated guitar or synths but everything here has a symbiotic relationship. It sounded like one moving organism. The vocals are again quite catchy and haunting."

Dream #50

Dream # 50

Sanctuary.

A sanctuary is a meeting place with oneself. To reflect on anything comparing ourselves with the immensity of creation to come to realize our insignificance.

Meteora in Greece, like many other places in the world, ideally represents that concept for me.

Despite the loudness, do not use more than two tracks from Kv331 and 8 from Music Studio 2.

DAW (MS2), equalization ...in my car...of course.

Grateful for your comments.

Paco.

Sanctuary (2023)

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

A lot going on in this song. The original idea was to take the idea of ostinato to the extreme. This was accomplished by using an arpeggiated Eb throughout - of course there was some work that went into the modulation and envelope of the synth I chose. I used the same synth varying the number of notes and direction of the arpeggios to get the sounds that define the track. 

In music, an ostinato (Italian: [ostiˈnaːto]; derived from Italian word for stubborn, compare English obstinate) is a motif or phrase that persistently repeats in the same musical voice, frequently in the same pitch. Well-known ostinato-based pieces include classical compositions such as Ravel's Boléro and the Carol of the Bells, and popular songs such as Donna Summer and Giorgio Moroder's "I Feel Love" (1977), Henry Mancini's theme from Peter Gunn (1959), The Who's "Baba O'Riley" (1971), and The Verve's "Bitter Sweet Symphony" (1997).[WikiPedia]

Lyrically I wanted to capture the hysteria of the Chinese balloon while addressing the fact that many of us voluntarily allow ourselves to be monitored by the government and private enterprises. We pay for Google Assistants, Alexa, Siri etc and I think I'm not the only that get's the AI saying it didn't understand after periods of absolute silence. It is also a known fact that private enterprises monitor our e-mails and we voluntarily sign up for this  - who knows who is analyzing and parsing that information. I have worked for decades in the telecommunications business and for those that don't know there is a feature called "Lawful Intercept" that all suppliers are obliged to enable - this allows authorities to listen in on any communication they deem fit. Lastly, while using free services like Facebook we allow the monitoring of our habits, many of us with a grudge, but still we allow it, and social media is becoming more and more pervasive so it seems we want more.

SHAKE THE FEELING 

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

Sometimes you feel like
Someone is listening
Hear voices in your head
Sometimes you feel like
Someone can see you
Looming over your shoulder

It’s not the first time
It’s not the second time
It’s not the last time, no

High and low
In and out

Can’t shake the feeling
Runs through your body
High and low
Can’t shake the feeling
A drug in your mind
In and out

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

Sometimes you can hear
A stranger in your house
And you spent all your money
Sometimes think you know
A machine is reading
You signed the dotted line

Sometimes you’re afraid
A lawful intercept
You voted for them
All the time you don’t care
They’re recording you
Nothing is for free

Can’t shake the feeling
I never ever wanted this
High and low
Can’t shake the feeling
Why can’t I say no
In and out

Can’t shake the habit
It’s my addiction
Ask for more
Can’t shake the feeling
I don’t want to
I want more

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

Sorry I didn't quite get that

Shale The Feeling

Shake The Feeling

Will the lonely oak tree remember the embrance of its sisters? 
What will she fell when she shades the men who left her orphan?
Will the human being ever learn that without enviroment there is no future for humanity?
Will it then be too late?

THE TREE THAT WAS FOREST

Art work by Majali Design

Light the sea 

When the night surprises me
that I am not sleepy alone 
then I defy time 
I implore the return of the sun 
and I think of the one who is missing 
that gives me wings

when the wind tells me
what it sees from the sky
these hatreds as old as the world 
that flow like rivers of shame
so I look at the one that counts 
and it gives me wings 

when my soul is adrift
I sail on a drunken boat
she is my lighthouse I rely on her
to light the sea, to show me the sky 

when life torments me
when questions fly in the air
when words lose their meaning
when expectations remain vain
then I look at the one I love 
so that she opens her wings to me

when my soul is lost and capsizes
when in the distance I can no longer see the shore 
she is my lighthouse I rely on her
to light the sea, to show me the sky

"All The Kings' horses and all The Kings' men
are destroying the planet once again."


First, we had acid rain.
Now we have acid winds.
What's next - acid water?
Time is running short...

Across North America and around the globe, climate change has a far-reaching impact on people, our economy, wildlife, and natural spaces that many species call home.

For example, warming temperatures are melting sea ice, glaciers, and caps in the Arctic and adversely affecting waters, forests, plants, and animals - not to mention people in these communities who rely on those resources.

As the mercury continues to rise, scientists predict that parts of the United States and Canada will experience more hazardous weather, such as prolonged DROUGHTS, HEAT WAVES & HEAVY RAINS.

Sweetest and dearest Mother Earth is being destroyed. It costs far less to reduce greenhouse gas emissions NOW than to adapt to climate change later.


Acid Winds

Mandarine vision
another decision
should I stay - should I leave
should I question - should I believe?
There’s just one thing that I know
acid winds they do blow.
I believe in what I see
and what I see is reality
the chains of freedom being sold
in the name of money - for the sake of gold.

Acid
acid
acid winds
acid winds
acid winds
acid winds.

Tangerine dreams
another scheme
should I laugh - should I cry
fade away or just lie?
The seeds of time are bearing fruit
there is no answer but the truth
for when all is said and done
chromosome panic - no more sun
the children will rise and conquer all
no more bricks left in the wall
left in the wall
left in the wall
left in the wall.

Acid
acid
acid winds
acid winds.

Serene schemes
another dream.
should I play deaf - should I play dumb
should I go or should I come?
All the Kings’ horses -  and all the Kings’ men
are destroying the planet once again
all the King’s horses - and all the Kings’ men
are destroying the planet once again.
There ain’t no President - there ain’t no Pope
gonna stop pollution from becoming a joke
Ships of Fools on plastic seas
save the planet - save the trees
save the trees
save the trees
save the trees.
Acid
acid
acid winds
acid winds
acid winds
acid winds
acid winds
acid winds.
