Are we once again headed for a frozen existence, on our little planet. With the increasingly catastrophic weather, for which we are all largely responsible, perhaps it will be.
 
Or will the planet instead burn up from an ever-decreasing atmospheric shield?

Or is our planet just broken pieces sliding through the void after we, humanity, could not speak to each other, choosing instead to annihilate and crumble the place we had in our universe with nuclear weapons........

Frozen Planet - Seagull & Clara

A Uber driver, listening to Romanian manele. I thought when I get home how talented my gipsy musician friends are here in Romania and all over the world. The heritage that they have, the passion,  the desire to live an adventurous and full life despite oh well..discrimination would belittle what the Whites have been doing to them and to so many other races for too long.

Here's a thought, a long time ago I was invited to play at a Concert for Gipsies Rights, and for anti-discrimination if my memory serves me well.

I was the only Romanian playing there, and by that I mean white.
And I was so proud to be there. And so were they.

Art never cares about peoples colour, political believes, religion etc . Art cares about creating for the good of people for enriching their hearts and lifes.

Discrimination is a cage, that's what I always thought since I was a kid.

I hope you will enjoy my music, a one take like probably assumed, in my one "gipsy heart" style. :)

Alpha Mound & Tidsrymd - En bättre värld

Jag vill ha kaffe. ( 1997 ) Eddy Mango ( Eddy )

This song is dedicated to Ayrton Senna, Roland Ratzenberger, Jules Bianchi, Elio De Angelis & Riccardo Piletti. They all died doing what they loved. Senna's death fixed the design properly...  It took Jules Bianchi's death in particular to make it the much safer sport it is today from a procedural point of view... This Romain Grojean proved in his last race in an F1 car. How Romain survived I still don't know but it's a testament to F1's safety in keeping it's people as safe as possible. Before Senna's death F1 crashes and even tragic deaths were for me a really bad reflection on us and showed a huge lack of humanity and no matter what the want to be entertained... Jackie Stewart should also get a mention for leading the path to proper safety 🔆🏎️🙌🏼


Update: Ya little beauty... Just made my guitar sound like an F1 engine using eBow and slide and distorted and delay... 1 live run throughout. Schweeeeet

Update: Added f1 engines from 1980's to 2000's... Plan is to use secific engine sounds to mark specific drivers and moments... for now just engine evoution through the song

Update: Added lead electric guitar and drove the vocal line home more

Update: 777bpm hard rock drum beat added time stretch by 10 (this worked as I had originally chosen 21/1 timing to lock in that phrase symmetry for the unusual BPM)and then also added another bass and snare only beat as per normal at 777bpm. This beat fades in along with a distorted rhythm electric guitar that was the weirdest thing I've ever played.. or at least it felt that way playing it. Also added way more power to vocal since initial line. Added in the power of solar flares and more painting time with music projection

Tempo 777 BPM
Timing 21/1

Lyrics

aKnowledgement
Discernment balanced eyes
Respect sees cognizance prize
Sympathetic power from the other side
Recognition of the treasure
Mirrored in your cosmic measure
Consciencious consciousness
aKnowledgement
Real
Total appreciation
Real
Fear see's deprication
Real
Connection to Space~Time
Real
Colours painted in musical rhyme
Real
Paint my time

Breathe

21 grams of life paint my knight
21 grams neutralise my strife
Solar flare of power this hour

Paint our time
Go flower
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real



Write the next one about being a super hero for yourself. Call it the The Dark Knights


If sport is what War becomes when our societies are civilized. Here's to more sport now. Think Collosseum🩸🗡️ vs Stade de France 🏉🤝

Conflict can become healthy peaceful competition for everyone challenging eachother to be better versions of ourselves by experiencing new frequencies we hadn't before 🙏🏽 We're all going to be trying to catch Usain Bolt for a while. It's evolution baby 🍼

Appreciation 🙏🏽 🏍️

Fill ideas

maybe build some strings and then re sing it. might make it less monotonous and we can avoid a key change

piano should compliment the guitar nicely try and mirror it

those drums need bass
