Through the trees, a forest
The end has started,
the beginning begun.

Tides are turning
War was over, 
or so we thought

*Out with the old
In with the new
if you don't know 
which is which
what you're gonna do?

You chose, you stepped, 
you thought you knew, 
Yet the tree still asks: 
Who chooses who?
Who chooses who?

Keep on climbing the decision tree
Up the branches, to infinity
decided for you and me

For Regulo Tortolero:

A través de los árboles, un bosque
El fin ha comenzado,
el comienzo comenzó.

Las mareas están cambiando
La guerra había terminado, 
o eso pensábamos

Fuera el viejo
Dentro el nuevo
si no sabes 
cuál es cuál
¿qué vas a hacer?

Elegiste, diste un paso, 
creíste que lo sabías, 
Sin embargo, el árbol sigue preguntando: 
¿Quién elige a quién?
¿Quién elige a quién?

Sigue subiendo
el árbol de las decisiones
Al final seremos libres

Decision tree

This instrumental track, crafted using an emulator of the legendary ARP 2600 synthesizer, delves into the unsettling notion of a world where machines gradually take over human skills, leaving our consciousness as the final remnant of what truly belongs to us.
In this sonic landscape—where analog layers merge with retro-futuristic textures—humanity quietly resists through its sensitivity, memory, and inner contradictions. While artificial intelligence may learn, simulate, and optimize... it does not feel. A machine cannot dream, doubt, or fall in love. Human consciousness is born from experience, shaped by memory and rooted in the body. And this elusive nuance lies at the heart of everything.
Inspired by the visions in 1999, Brave New World, THX1138, and 2001: A Space Odyssey, the track reflects an age where fiction slips into reality. But instead of sounding an alarm, "Conscience 2600" whispers a lucid realization: within the circuitry and the algorithms, there remains something that cannot be programmed—the intimate pulse of being

Conscience 2600

The silver sun is rising and rising
Signs of winter coming
Snow on the hills
She leaves for the harbour
To scan the endless line of waves

As cars float down to the seaside road
a fog is rising
over Lady Bridge street
The chance of a meeting
is very small
but if you come to the light house
I'll wait for you
if you wait for me

Oh my compass
show a homeward sign
no star's a-shining
the tide's ahead of time  

I think it's all coming back
And I know yes I know
you're gonna remind me of the promisses
that we were meant to keep.

Fly in time, is an innocent line
If you really must leave 
don't hesitate
but whatever you do
don't close the gate.
There always will be
a window of opportunity

The Tide’s Ahead of Time

🎧 Artist’s Note
There are silences that soothe, and silences that tremble.
This piece lives in the space between — where the body is still, but the soul remembers.
Composed in the wake of urgency, of care, of emotional weight, it is the echo of a moment when everything was done, yet nothing felt resolved.
Close your eyes. Let the shiver speak.

Stillness 🙏🏻

A Stillness That Shivers

A brief intermission from the present—this is a restored moment from six years ago, when I first touched the Pocket Operators and felt something shift. The PO-35 Speak and PO-14 Sub opened a new line of creation for me, and this short jam was one of the first sparks.
Now remastered in 4K with a new sound mix, it returns not as a statement, but as a breath between movements. A reminder of where things began, and how playfulness still finds its way into the process.
Not a full release. Not a throwback. Just a small interlude between deeper lines.
Peace, Mark

Lots of selfmade, mostly bedroom- or cellarproduced tracks here, different styles because of different moods and music tools, often selfmade instruments, allways experimenting and in search of sounds and soundmaking stuff, harmonic or non-harmonic....and all free to listen and to download ...and if you want to use one of my tracks or try a collab, just ask, do it and tell me about it... all in terms of Creative Commons...
I have to make music every free minute, allways full of it, and, about time, I have a lot of toys to do this ... these tracks are my kind of relaxing and i will do it till the end of my time...
I hope, you like, what I do....You may find a lot, but no autotune and no AI, I swear...
You cannot OWN music, you only can MAKE it.... (something, Neneh Cherry said)... and so I do...
I never learned an instrument, I am an analphabet in music theory, but that's not important: 
I AM an instrument and there's always music inside me.... and I go on...
SC is my diary: The diary of my steps into the world of music since 2012....
if you want to know something about that: you're welcome!
One of my tracks is especially made for you... 
Try the playlists ; )
Remember:  I DON'T WANT TO BUY SC-PLAYS:  I'll block EVERY try and all those trendscout-robots!! If you like my stuff, listen to it, feel it and tell it to your friends, that's enough.....
