How Does It Feel

Creeping Horror From Outer Space

This is a very nice pop song (and my first!!!) that I had the luck to build up with the great and charming producer Johan Johansson (aka Jellycot). He came into Songstuff asking for collaborations, and I joined! He sent me a super cool "Happy track" and told me to try to write some melody and lyrics over it, asking me if I could please, in addition write something in Japanese. Of course I accepted the challenge (it not easy at all for me writing a song in Japanese...)
It was the first time for me listening to somebody singing my melodies and lyrics and it was so magic, he is a really great singer with a very sweet voice, and his talent and knowledge in music production is noticeable if you check the quality of the track, and the great job he did assembling our voices together, and melting them with the track. 


LYRICS:

 I got up in my bedroom,
the sun warming my face,
everything seemed ﻿so normal,
like any other day.

When I look through my window,
the quiet Sunday street,
I saw you waiting for me,
can't describe what I felt.

心はドキドキした、　               // the heart was accelerated of emotion
感じはすごかっただ、              // the feeling was amazing
自分の人生じゃないみたい、   // it doesn't look like my own life
でも私のだ。                              // but it is.

I used to stay awake,
thinking about this day,
I wonder what will happen underneath the Sakura rain.
And when you smile that way,
a picture in a frame,
I wonder what will happen underneath the Sakura rain.
 
Wanted to rush towards you,
I had to see your face.
My heart was on my temple,
lost control of my breath.

When we met outside my place,
the words got stuck again,
then suddenly you kissed me,
under the soft pink rain.

自分の人生じゃないみたい、  // it doesn't look like my own life
でも私のだ。                              // but it is.

I used to stay awake,
thinking about this day,
I can't believe what happened underneath the Sakura rain.

And when you smile that way,
a picture in a frame,
I can't believe what happened underneath the Sakura rain.
Underneath the Sakura rain.
I can't believe that happened underneath the Sakura rain.

I saw this coming,
I really want this to be real.
You make me happy,
It seems that we have shared a dream.

The way you're kissing me,
I think this is a dream,
but I'm not waking up I'm still here in the Sakura rain.
And when you smile that way,
a picture in a frame,
I can't believe that happened underneath the Sakura rain.

春は一番いい季節                        // Spring is the best season,
皆さんは愛について考える      // everybody things about love
何でも起こりうる                      // anything can happen
underneath the Sakura rain.

春は一番いい季節                        // Spring is the best season,
皆さんは愛について考える      // everybody thinks about love
And I'm so glad it happened
underneath the Sakura rain.

THE NIGHT HAS COME

Now that we are trapped in the dust
we miss the sky.
Past beauty seems like a dream
we’ll never find. 

We can’t return,
there’s no way back.
We didn’t do what we were told,
try to understand.
The game is over, 
we’ve lost the war. 
Now we are longing on this darkness
for what is gone.

We are in desert of smoke, 
look what we’ve got
only shambles on the sight
hopeless souls. 

What we loved
burnt in fire
and we are standing.
Peaceful days
melting down
now the night has come.

Memories of better times
come to my  mind.
We see their shade as we pass
and wave goodbye.

It’s hard to know
we walk alone
closed all the doors and now we have
nowhere to go. 

Take all your sadness 
let it rage on.
Now that the history is erased
we should put new words.

Someday the rain will return
and clean the scars
until the we shall better force
our aim to survive.

What we loved
burnt in fire
and we are standing.
Peaceful days
melting down
now the night has come.

The Night Has Come (feat. MisterMyr)- Video & Lyrics in description!

Trying to sow this seed of hope here in this musical tapestry. Trough battle and hardships we can come to see and appreciate this tiny but shining and sparkling voice of hope! May we overcome our despair through art and the amazing human capacity of facing the trouble head on!

Pasichosis  Prei

A New Beggining (Demo)

from EP "Elements"

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But they don’t see what’s on the inside
I protect it with my life

Mama says come on now smile
But what if what if I don’t want to
Can’t always be nice

Daddy says come on be strong
But what if when I cry
I’m stronger than anyone 

Sometimes feel like I am falling

Some nights I stay up too late
Running over and over 
the same mistakes

Some nights all I want is touch
Others not so much
I can’t pinpoint me

Sometimes feel like I am falling
Only know me by my scars
Sometimes feel like I am floating
Someone catch me before dark

I’ve got me
Under my skin
Learning to love me again

I was watching a movie called ‘ The Darkest Hour’. About two Americans  flying to Moscow to sell their social networking/party locating software. Upon arrival they go to a nightclub and meet two girls, an American, and her Australian friend. The lights go out in the club and everyone heads outside. There, they witness a policeman investigating  being  disintegrated by this ball of lightning. The invisible entities begin hunting and killing people, sending them into a panic. They begin this cat and mouse chase across the city, trying to survive and get to a safe place.
I was totally inspired and produced this track. Enjoy. Love to all. Copyright protected ©

I deeply recognize the disparity in ways natural and human disasters affect different groups of people and the need for greater equality of care. I also recognize that I live with many privileges that others do not have. And with these recognitions, I still believe there is space for us all to have a gratitude practice while passionately endeavoring for positive change.  

I am grateful for all the accumulated creativity and work of our ancestors that lead to the eventual creation of the internet and SoundCloud which has enabled us to remain artistically connected during this period of increased physical isolation. 

May everyone’s seeds be fruitful and multiply.

Lyrics:

We thank this seed with its potency
To bring forth fruits so copiously
With opened hearts and festivity  
4 20 days of ceremony 
 
You listen
Oh, you listen
We’re thankful that 
You listen

You listen
Yea, you listen
In the morning dew
You glisten

We honor you with crimsoned desire
Following Nanahuatl who jumped in the fire
May your sacrifices continue to inspire
And bring forth gratitude until we expire 

The days are long and the weather is hot
We call on the rains to weather our crops
Bless the labor of men and divined thought 
Honored to sacrifice for all that we got 

We thank this seed with it’s potency
To bring forth fruits so copiously
With opened hearts and festivity  
4 20 days of ceremony 
 
We be handing out the alms for the love of Xipe Totec
Got the gods in the house garlands all around their necks
Sitting on sheaves, leaves of tzapote 
Honoring renewal of life and all that is holy 
Flayed in the way maize loses layers 
With hope of vegetation we given up the prayers
Flayed in the way maize loses layers 
With hope of vegetation we given up the prayers

LYRICS:

last time i saw her she was barefoot,
smoking grass,
alone in the park.

summer has spoken in engaged tones,
honey bee drones and the hum of traffic.

why does it always end the same?
why does it have to be this way?

pink lemonade for a blue girl
pink lemonade for a blue girl
pink lemonade for a blue girl
she wants to escape to her own world.

i hear her voice in the sea's breath,
whispering 'goodbyes' from the dark depths
of the high tide;
in the gulls' cries;
in the blue blue eyes and the clink of ice...

why does it always end the same?
why does it have to be this way?

pink lemonade for a blue girl
pink lemonade for a blue girl
pink lemonade for a blue girl
she wants to remain in her own world.

la-la-lahhh [ad lib]

So.... finally.... this is it. Andrew Huang's #3. I never thought that i will be able to finish it...... The process for this one is really best to be described as "from HATE to epic FATE".

Number three even destroyed once more the way of how i "usually" and "naturally" proceed with things and do them, when it comes to creating and assembling musical structures. Especially, when there is a "vision" in adding vocals, or even go for a vocal track. I realized, that i did it not exactly, as shown and to be the applied method for this one, as presented in the course. Classic songwriting process from A - Z. Damn you!!!

As the timeline came closer and closer..... i found myself struggling so hard, but still was able , they kinda encouraged us to deliver whatever is ready at that point, to drop a final structure with all the basic core elements as raw as any "diamond" could be, mined deep under the surface in dark caverns....

Then the real struggle began. Course was over, but not this unfinished piece and my natural extremism, which did not allow me to leave it just as it is. At a certain progress you decide - trash it or do it for the sake of learning and finish that damn project! Then i recalled (hehe), and remembered a quote Andrew dropped at a certain stage in the course, which says like "to do something you like, you have to do alot of stuff you dont like".

Keeping this in mind, i took a short break to relax myself and get rid of the pressure -> course over, deadline ended anyway , so why go mad bro? Then the thing developed. I found myself being able to go more and more in the direction i imagined and went down to the rabbit-hole-like tunnel, dug up some more diamonds, back onto the surface, and then processing and grinding and shaping, until they meet the quality you want to have in your jewelry. 

No detailed numbers this time but again, big cred to my fiance for being so supportive and sustaining my sanity, while i still went full psycho mode on this one - but i had to, like for me, personally, this finished song number three is the overall end of this course and the way i shape msyself into music making and trying to make it as entertaining as possible. 

Money is not what I'm after, as this is my hobby, my other love in life, and even if you just don't like stuff sometimes , yet you love it deeply and it deserves that you seriously take care of it....... so here it is... i hope it is a good listen to you - enjoy this little space drama! ;o

Thank you all for tuning in and valuing what i do - again, this community is just so awesome. You all are! <3

Intro:
I, didn't see it coming....
I, didn't see you running....

Verse:
You sneaked out of mission control
smoke and fire everywhere
no hesitation, to abandon us all
smell of searing flesh and hair

verse:
believed we will survive this together
dreamed our kingdom will last forever
now hunting you across the galaxy
with the last broken pieces left of me

chorus:
unpredicted, came this downfall
i recall
heavy wounded, but still i crawl
i recall, i recall
your betrayal, i don't want to recall
recall, recall
was to blind to see it all
i recall

verse:
memories now, coming and fading
my screams, they're all in vain
bombs are flying, troops invading
what's left is only pain

verse:
far across, your ships air-frame
gonna end now your last run
fooled me with your vicious game
aiming, and pull the trigger of my gun

Solo

Chorus:
unforeseen, it is now our end
i recall, i recall
closer and closer, ready to ascend
i recall, i recall
visions of our younger selves appear
i recall i recall
a final thought, a bittersweet tear
my last recall

Waiting for your Sunshine / Standing in the Moonlight / Cecilia, Paploviante & Lillithe

This is the story of my first “eclipse”, experienced alone in the wilderness of Oregon in August, 2017. It’s a long story, but the story behind this song.

I drove to Oregon alone to see the great American total solar eclipse of 2017. In Oregon, there is a famous national park called Crater Lake.  This is the deepest lake in America.   In the middle of Crater Lake is Wizard Island. This lake was formed when a huge volcano blew its top a long time ago.  My plan was to see Wizard Island, get a hotel room, and see the eclipse the next day.

There have been numerous stories of strange occurrences around this area from multiple people over the course of centuries.

The time was around 7 pm when driving up Crater Lake Mountain to see Wizard Island… I wasn’t sure where I was going, or how to get down from the mountain. Finally, I saw Wizard Island just as the sun started to set. I remember there was this misty haze in front of the Island. I could barely see it. I got the chills and a weird feeling... It was very eerie.

I tried to find my way down from the mountain in my car, but it was too late, I was lost, and it was too dangerous. There are areas where you can drive off a ledge and fall a long way. No fun. I had to pull over in the wilderness and spend the night in my car…

Hours passed, and I fell asleep.

What happened next is the strangest thing I’ve experienced in my life. I woke up, it was still night. My phone wasn’t working, my car wouldn’t start or turn on any lights. I didn’t know what time it was. It was disturbing to me they were both "dead", and I was panicked. Then I noticed the area around my car was alternating in brightness, like truck lights... But that wasn't it. I got out of my car to check it out.

But the sky was weird. The moon was weird. It was all weird. The moon was alternating between being clearly visible… And being pitch black. Like it was “blinking”. It would take 5 seconds to get black, then about 5 seconds to get bright again. The stars were barely visible. I stared in disbelief for maybe 30 seconds, it kept happening.  The air around me had a feeling of electric charge to it.   I started hearing a lot more animals, and they seemed to surround me. They were in the bushes and trees, everywhere. It got more troubling quickly when I could discern soft human voices. I couldn't see animals or people. 
I wasn't on any drugs, I was saving my drugs for the following day and the journey home.

Time seemed too slow. I backed up to my car, got in, and locked the doors. I remember a feeling of utter disbelief in my senses. Without any idea what to do, I climbed in the backseat and lied down. I thought any second I could die.

The next thing I remembered, I woke up. It was about 6:30 am. My car worked. My phone worked. And this was the morning of August 21st, 2017… The first day of the total solar eclipse which many of us would see later that day.  

But what I saw was something else.

Something very weird happened to me up there on that mountain that night, and it’s haunted me. I know several people will think "Manufactured lies!" Several others will think "Cool story bro...", well think what you want...

Later that morning when getting breakfast, still shook-up, I asked 2 waitresses if they heard of anything strange last night around Crater Lake. One said "no", the other said, "There's always something strange happening".

I remember one time a girl asked me why my music is so dark...
I’ve seen some sights.

Try to check out Crater Lake, Oregon, if you've never seen it.
Don't get lost.

- John

It’s the simple part of the structure
We use until we can’t go on and rupture
You’re either too cruel, or you’re too kind 
Now everybody wants a piece of your mind 

It’s the hardest wave when there is danger
Because everybody falls in love with strangers 
You’re either too brave, or you’re too blind 
Now everybody wants a piece of your mind
Are you mine?

It’s the distance that’s going to throw her
Because everybody wants to get much closer
You’re either too fast, or you fall behind 
Now everybody wants a piece of your mind

But in the wolves mouth, you see a keeper
When everybody dives a little deeper
You’re either too willed, or you’re too wined
Now everybody wants a piece of your mind
Are you mine?

It’s the simple part of the structure
We use until we can’t go on and rupture
You're either too lost, or you seek to find 
Somebody who wants a piece of your mind

And when you saw me there, last September
Was I just how you always remembered?
You’re either too safe, or you lose sight
When everybody wants a piece of your mind 
Are you mine?

Are You Mine?

LYRICS: 
Some would say I’ve got no sense of direction
Some would say I’ve got no sense at all
Some would say I’m going round in circles
Like a clock ticking on the the wall

Maybe I do 
Maybe I don’t
Maybe I will 
Maybe I won’t

Some people say I move too fast
Some people say I move too slow
Some people say there’s no need to move at all
If you don’t know where to go

Maybe I do 
Maybe I don’t
Maybe I will 
Maybe I won’t

I might go looking for the sun in the morning
Or maybe in the afternoon
Sit back with a cold beer in the evening
And just look up at the moon 

Some would say head for the highlands 
Some say the lowlands are for me 
Some would say just follow your heart
Wherever that may be

Maybe I do 
Maybe I don’t
Maybe I will 
Maybe I won’t

I might go looking for the sun in the morning
Or maybe in the afternoon
Sit back with a cold beer in the evening
And just look up at the moon 

Maybe I do 
Maybe I don’t
Maybe I will 
Maybe I won’t

Maybe I Do
