Bossa Nova literally means ‘new flair’ or ‘new trend’ in Portuguese. It is a style that was created in the late 1950’s. It is basically a fusion of Samba and Jazz, using traditional Brazilian rhythms. Here I add a Bluesy Twist to it, hope it works! 
First, you'll hear a clean guitar sound, then introducing a more overdriven one, for the grand final  :)))

Simple Twist of Bossa

Simple Twist Of Bossa

Galaxies.
A new single by Jude with Lemonade.
Thanks to Lemonade for one of the best lyrics I've ever read, and for her voice! Here are the lyrics...

GALAXIES
are you dreaming tonight?

tossing and turning
in galaxies so bright
your star ships rotating in the light

the sun is so much brighter
out here

all the mirrors pointing
in the stratosphere

all the energy of stars
travel
they travel
they're shining here
tonight..

galaxies are spinning into each other
tonight

black holes kissing
black holes
spinning tunnels of light

is this what you’re dreaming tonight?

oh how I wish

oh how I wish the stars would come down

tell me how they started
this time around

every moment
we are twisting

I just want to know
what they’re twisting about….

is this what you’re dreaming about?

all this glowing dust
that shapes the void?

all these galaxies
all the stars we know nothing about
is this what you’re losing sleep over?

all the places we will never see
all the space
all the stars..

they’re glowing…nothing you see is here
a thousand years ago
you should go to sleep....
they’re just memories you know

Galaxies

Aria from Bach's Goldberg Variations (BWV 988). Substituting double bass, trumpet, and trombone for harpsichord. Modeled after the Glenn Gould version.

Aria

A couple of years ago I dedicated this song to Sandra. After listening she said: "Mmm, yes, nice, but I prefer another piece, that one that you let me listen a few months ago".
Damn sincerity! :)))

Lately i decided to record it again with a different arrangement, this is the new one.
But this time I'm not sure i'll let her listen again :)))

Here you can find the other previous version, the "rejected" one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhvv6Rw2zWo

The other piece, her favorite, was this:  https://soundcloud.com/francescocartocci/la-danza-della-lontananza

I'm excited to introduce my collaboration with the incredible musician @dariusz-jackowski-1. This track has been on ice for over two years and forgotten since then. Now it's finally time for it to see the light of day. What strikes me immediately is how good the production is. You've done an fantastic job. Kudos to you, brother!

Prepare thoroughly
Visit the sacred places
