Still not sure if green is green or life is one giant green screen?

Is this green?

Valley at dusk

Originally the title was Epicurus. Then I put it in the drawer for a while and now I took it out again. After 
I reworked the song, it was supposed to be called "Vernissage des Epikur". After I was allowed to participate in a vernissage two weeks ago, I shortened the title. I think the song reflects very well what I was allowed to experience as a photographer on the evening of the vernissage.

Ursprünglich hieß der Titel Epikur. Dann hab ich ihn eine weile in die Schublade gesteckt und jetzt wieder rausgeholt. Nach dem ich den Song überarbeitet hatte, sollte er zunächst "Vernissage des Epikur" heissen. Nachdem ich vor zwei Wochen selber an einer Vernissage teilnehmen durfte, habe ich den Titel gekürzt. Ich finde der Song spiegelt sehr gut wieder was ich als Fotograf am Abend der Vernissage erleben durfte.

Airborne over Dearborn

Retorn Of Calafate Version Berlin School - Part 5

This song started as a jam session between me and Nahlej creating a nu metal sound by mixing hip hop, alternative with metal. Simon added further guitar licks and a solo. Our working title "Heavy Jam" inspired StevieJ to rap lyrics about drug abuse due to low self esteem and mental health issues. All thoughts running through the narrator's mind mind created a sticky heavy jam. Instead of tackling the issues, he prefers to numb the pain with meds and weed. This doesn't solve any problems, so better not try! 
Starting with a guitar theme, I could never have guessed the heaviness of the instrumental and lyrics both. Thanks for your collab, I am very pleased with the result!

The artwork has been generated with DALL E 2, but I invested some work cleaning it up and adding details with a graphics tablet.

Nahlej: composition, guitar, bass, drum programming

==== LYRICS ====

I'm not ready for the world today
Already going through hell today
So anyone who tries to talk to me
They'll be hell to pay

I got a mental list of all the shit 
I'm dealing with
I know I'm not the only one 
who'll be feeling this nah

I don't need politics 
adding to the stress
Finished school time ago
so why another test

Trying to focus on me just being the best 
but I can't 
when there's so much
shit running through my head

Numbing meds so I don't feel the pain
Even little miss sunshine 
couldn't stop the rain

Ain’t lifting the finger, nah
Not today, so get away from me
seems you got a lot to say
and I forgot to say

I'm staying in one place 
all it takes 
is one look at my face

I'm not playing,
There’s nothing you can do
to change that
So just stay back

and accept that that's who I am
Staying in bed with a head like
Like heavy jam

Yeah, heavy jam
I’m in bed with a head like
Like heavy jam

The doctor's prescription 
just ain't enough for me
I need some king size Rizla
and some Godfather OG

Yeah, now I can say that my life
is so sweet
Just one thing missing,
that one thing's me

I'm existing 
but I'm not living
I'm resisting 
cause I'm not giving

Anything away 
about the state of my brain 
I'm just saying 
you can't take it away

Like all good artists
I'll just harness the pain
and create a set of lyrics
that make people say
Man, I feel the same way

I'm sure I'll smoke my way through this
Always the optimist, 
advice from the doctor is 
at some point you're gonna
have to put a stop to this

Will I listen? 
Nah that's not who I am
It's just another day in bed
with a head like heavy jam

Heavy Jam
Heavy Jam
I’m in bed with a head like
In bed with a head like
Heavy jam

I'm not ready for the world today
Already going through hell today
I'm not ready for the world today
Already going through hell today

So anyone who tries to talk to me
They'll be hell to pay

Heavy Jam

Heavy Jam (with Nahlej, Simon Ashby and StevieJ)

Very much a collaboration.

Tante Meli supplied vocals and lyrics, vocal production, very good drum ideas, synth swells and sampled organ.

Faerytale played perfect cello and pan flute.

I brought guitars and bass, bass synth, sampled organ, digital percussion and drums. Then I attempted to mix it all.

It was fun.

Tante Meli and Faerytale. You know them, you love them. But if you don’t know them, go here: @faerytale and here: @tante-meli. You will love them.

🗺️

I make everything in minutes on my phone that’s why everything sounds unfinished and weird. Unless I write it in minutes on my guitar. Or just have an idea and yeah whatever. Since my gooder phone was stolen I hate using this slow one that doesn’t let me do much before crashing for lack of memory. I have a hectic life and ADHD and lack the opportunity to focus on music and creating solely which I’d love. Most things I do come back to music and I make it/ noise all the time. Don’t have a genre just do whatever whenever it comes. Thank you for listening :)
