Procopia, in Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities, is part of the "Continuous Cities" series.
Procopia's story highlights how accumulation and overpopulation transform a city into a continuum where public and even private space are nonexistent, leaving behind only a wall of anonymous, smiling faces. It is a poetic and distressing reflection on metropolization and the disappearance of the individual in the urban mass.

Procopia dans Les Villes invisibles d'Italo Calvino, fait partie de la série des "Villes continues" 
Le récit de Procopia met en évidence la façon dont l'accumulation et la surpopulation transforment une ville en un continuum où l'espace public et même privé est inexistant, ne laissant derrière elle qu'une muraille de visages anonymes et souriants. C'est une réflexion poétique et angoissante sur la métropolisation et la disparition de l'individu dans la masse urbaine.

Procope

Adelma is one of the cities described by Marco Polo to Emperor Kublai Khan in Italo Calvino's book Invisible Cities. Adelma is part of the Cities and Memory thematic series. It is a reflection on memory, mourning, and the fact that at a certain age, the dead outnumber the living in the traveler's mind.

Adelma est l'une des villes décrites par Marco Polo à l'empereur Kublai Khan dans le livre Les Villes invisibles d'Italo Calvino. Adelma est classée dans la série thématique des Villes et la Mémoire. Elle est une réflexion sur le fait qu'à un certain âge, les morts sont plus nombreux dans l'esprit du voyageur que les vivants.

Lyrics by Zemandan:

Why not go out on a limb? That's where the fruit is.
There is no passion to be found in playing small
Dream as if you'll live forever

There is no rain just liquid sunshine
Boom!
Dream as if you'll live forever
Take the first step in faith
You don't have to see the whole staircase
Just take the first step

There is no rain just liquid sunshine
Dream as if you'll live forever
Live as if you'll die today
Play the game for more than you can afford to lose
Only then will you learn the game

Dream as if you'll live forever
Live as if you'll die today
Play the game for more than you can afford to lose
Only then will you learn the game
Dream as if you'll live forever
Live as if you'll die today

Keep your face always toward the sunshine
and shadows will fall behind
There is no rain 
Dream as if you'll live forever
Live as if you'll die today

Friends are the family we choose
and losing you feels like losing a part of myself

Boom!
Dream as if you'll live forever
Live as if you'll die today
Boom!
Dream as if you'll live forever
Live as if you'll die today

Lyrics : Famous Bush'isms of the one and only retard that is George W Bush. 

I just know I don't know

I think we agree the past is over
I know that human being and fish can coexist peacefully

I just know what I've been told
It's not much but I believe it

I just want you to know that 
When we talk about war
We're really talking about peace
We must stop the terror
I call upon all nations 
To do everything they can
To stop these terrorist killers
Thank you 
Now watch this drive 

I just want you to know 
I just want you to know that 
When we talk about war
We're really talking about peace ✌️

Lyrics:

I wander through a shattered grid
Where shadows pulse and ghosts forbid

Burn the wires, I’m rising free
A signal calls through eternity

I traded heart for circuits cold
Their static sings of truths untold

Veins of light in ash decay
My rebel code will break the day

I wander through a shattered grid, where shadows pulse and ghosts forbid

Burn the wires, I’m rising free
A signal calls through eternity
Veins of light in ash decay
My rebel code will break the day

Stars collapse, the grid’s alive
In endless loops, my soul survives

Little Snowflake

I came across the page of Natalie (Caught in a Moment) https://soundcloud.com/missx-3 and instantly fell in love with her voice and music. 

The original song was a live-recording of Natalie's voice and piano. 
https://soundcloud.com/missx-3/peace-of-mind-theres-hope
I added a few things to make a duet version out of it. Here is the result, I hope you enjoy. Sound quality is limited due to live recording and the necessity to split it up in stems to re-mix it. Hope you don't mind.

Caught in a moment - vocals, piano, composition, lyrics.
BeSinger - vocals, guitars, lapsteel, strings, rearrangement.

Lyrics

I can read your mind
its the calm after the storm
it was breaking us
but will never reach our souls

theres a peace of mind
one I never thought Id find
so glorious
all my doubts have turned to dust

never seemed so bright
we're the a calm after the night
for that distant light
its so worth to face all fights

never seemed so bright
though I never thought Id find
so glorious
all my fears are made of dust

Theres hope!

Lyrics :-
I wonder what
I was doing
Not a lot
Before all this
I wonder what
Was my calling
Stuck in a rut
Before all this

And day by day
And year by year
It fades away
Becomes unclear

Is this the path I should be on
Now that I'm here

A midnight chancer
A moonlight dancer
A real champagner
An entertainer

Stytz Syndicate    Album  "Best Before"
Music :    Stytz
Lyrics :    Pee Gee / Harriman
Producer:  Josef Piek (Purple Schulz)

This was one of the songs Stytz Syndicate performed in Stuttgart opening for Willy De Ville ´s  "Southern Comfort Tour", when Willy joined the band on stage and sang together with Hubert Stytz. Great memories !


Don´t Keep Me Waiting

My life is so empty without you
After all the years we´ve been through
Long ago when we first met
You caught me in your net
Do it again!

My body yearns with desire
My bleeding heart burns like fire
The moment you made eyes at me
You blew my mind entirely
Do it again... Don´t play for time
I´ll be there if you change your mind

Baby, Baby...Don´t Keep Me Waiting
Sorry if I´ve done you wrong
Baby, Baby... Don´t Keep Me Waiting
My love is still so strong

My nights are long and lonely
I´m waiting for my one and only
I´m in need of your kiss
And I´m dying for your caress
Do it again..throw me a line
I´ll be there if you change your mind

Baby, Baby... Don´t Keep Me Waiting
Sorry if I´ve done you wrong
Baby, Baby...Don´t Keep Me Waiting
My love is still so strong

Baby, Baby...Don´t Keep Me Waiting..........................

Verse 1 

Today I want to tell you, my love How happier I couldn't be with you Every word that comes from you Is a caress I bless

 Pre-chorus

 I'm not rich and I have nothing But with your magic you transform me into a bright star

 Chorus

 Every moment with you is pure magic You electrify me with your love and tenderness It is with you that my sanity is balanced You are my love, a crazy love

 Verse 2 

Your existence is a divine blessing I can feel your sweet essence in every corner You are such an exemplary and beautiful woman 

Bridge 

It would take an eternity To give you all the roses in the world.

 Chorus 

Every moment with you is pure magic You electrify me with your love and tenderness It is with you that my sanity is balanced You are my love. A crazy love. 

Outro I could no longer imagine my life without you. It would be eternal and complete bitterness.



Verso 1

Hoy quiero decirte amor mío
Que más feliz no puedo estar contigo
Cada palabra que sale de ti
Es una caricia que bendigo

Pre chorus 

No soy rico y nada tengo
Pero con tu magia
me transformas en lucero

Coro 

Cada momento junto a ti es magia pura 
Me electrificas con tu amor y tu ternura 
Es junto a ti que se equilibra mi cordura 
Eres tú mi bien, un amor de locura

 Verso 2

Tu existencia es una bendición divina
Puedo sentir tu esencia dulce en cada esquina 
Eres mujer tan ejemplar y tan hermosa 

Puente 

Que tomaría una eternidad 
Darte del mundo todas las rosas. 

Coro 

Cada momento junto a ti es magia pura 
Me electrificas con tu amor y tu ternura
Es junto a ti que se equilibra mi cordura 
Eres tú mi bien. 

Un amor de locura. 

Outro 

Ya no podría imaginar a mi vida sin ti
Sería eterna y completa amargura

Magia pura - D'mendo Boteli.wav

Old song remixed today 

I hear a riff in the clouds so high 
Strings bending like angels sigh 
A melody that won't let me cry 
Are there guitars in heaven 
Do they shine Do they glow 
Do they play the songs we know 
Are there guitars in heaven 
Strings of gold Frets of light 
Echoing through the endless night 
I see a chord painted on the sky 
Six lines drawn where dreams won't die 
A pic in the wind It whispers why 
Can you hear the sound 
Breaking through the ground 
Are there guitars in heaven 
Do they shine Do they glow 
Do they play the songs we know 
Are there guitars in heaven 
Strings of gold Frets of light 
Echoing through the endless night 
Play me a solo Soft and slow 
Let it burn Let it show 
If there's a stage where spirits go

Are there guitars in heaven .mp3

Verse 1
People come into our lives, then fade away like ripples in a pond
We spend time together, it feels so right, but circumstances change and they move on. 
I think about them occasionally, I wonder what they’re up to.
Sometimes I get the urge call them out of the blue.
Chorus
All those different paths that I could have taken
Now I’m lying in the bed of my own making
The clock keeps ticking every single day
I tell myself there’s got to be a better way
Verse 2
People who I haven’t spoken to in such a very long time
We drifted away and now I’m past my prime 
If I walked past them, and they saw my face, would there be any hint of recognition
Cause time has a way of transforming you like a magician

Bridge 
It feels like I’m doing time, I’m just towing the line
Trying to make it through another hard-working day
There’s so much water under that bridge, I’m dying to know what’s on the other side of that ridge, and deep down I know I’m in a prison of my own making

Verse 3
All those Dreams I never followed, I took the safe road
I turned my back on creativity and shifted into a working horse mode
I’m back in the saddle, trying to play the game
Speaking what’s on my mind
It’s a race no one asked me to enter and I’m feeling far behind

Chorus
All those different paths that I could have taken
Now I’m lying in the bed of my own making
The clock keeps ticking every single day
I tell myself there’s got to be a better way
Outro
They say that’s the way the cookie crumbles,
And life can be a series of stumbles 
And all you can do is dust yourself off and try keep right on going

Glow of War

Was discussing The Replacements with a friend and had the urge to write a tune in that vein, and, gosh, there was inspiration right there in the daily news.  This was a quick & dirty one day write &  record, but then quick & dirty seems to be the order of the day.

hey mr tangerine man you're not fooling me
I'm not stupid and we all know what you're trying to do
hey mr tangerine man you're not fooling me
and you know we won't be mourning when they're burying you

you rake the air incessantly with your heinous flapping lips
while your golf shirt hides your tits
and your tiny grey hands twitch
all the citizens feel gypped
we're all waiting for a massive stroke to do you in
i'm ready to move anywhere I want to emigrate
but come back for the parade past the golf course where you're laid
i'll fight the urge to urinate

Glow of War  (piano version)

Already Home – dark, hypnotic, and intense. Deep vocals, pulsing bass, glitchy percussion, and cinematic energy.

Blessed with fire inside
I take all the light she offers, never settle, never hide
I see skies beneath my feet, stars above my head
Guess you wish you were already gone, more left undone than said

Met a dude who claimed to know
But he couldn’t tell me where my soul will go
I spoke my mind, let my bad thoughts flow
You see I’m already home

I will ascend
Bud in my hand
Bass at my side
I’ve tried — still no release
More than a little misaligned
Falling fast, out of line

They say only fools can recognize
But I see all the signs
They say simple minds just echo fools
But I will ascend in proof

Bud in my hand
Bass at my side
I’ve tried — still no release
More than a little misaligned
Guess you’ll linger on if you ever tried

Met a dude who claimed to know
But he couldn’t tell me where my soul will go
I spoke my mind, let my bad thoughts flow
You see I’m already home

I will ascend - bud in my hand
Bass at my side - I’ve tried
Still no release — more than a little misaligned
Guess you’ll linger on if you ever tried

Already Home

Cast of Characters:

Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark –- VST Middle Eastern instruments (Duf Drum, Daire drum, Darbuka, Riq, Qanun, Zurna horn, Ney flute, strings), female vocal sample, 'ululation' (high pitch yodel), and composition

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Custom fretless 5-string bass 

Llanpsych - Fluffer for the keyboardist and keygrip

The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl — vocals and lyrics

J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – saz, shakuhachi, and synth

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken — cymbals and Chinese percussion

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — traditional gourd-body sitar and mastering.

  Josh had the idea for doing a traditional Palestinian song, as he is an avid fan of their music. He wanted to raise awareness of this music and tie it to the idea it may cease to exist as a living musical tradition sooner than later. Everyone in the band was immediately on board with this idea, and set about to make it happen. 

  Mark, who is an expert percussionist, learned a basic traditional Palestinian drum pattern, in a very authentic fashion. He laid it down, along with an Arabic sounding modal melody line portrayed by the quanun, which is a kind of zither. Josh found this pattern fascinating, and added his five string fretless bass to the it shortly after. Carl jumped in very shortly thereafter, and came up with some really amazing vocal melodies, as well as wonderfully prescient lyrics. He even learned more than several phrases in Arabic, which he sang in there, too. We were all very impressed by this, of course.

  JJ was next up, adding his magical, melodic, and exotic saz, shakuhachi, and synth to the mix. Ken threw in next, adding his perfectly timed brass and Chinese percussion to the mix, too. Last, but certainly not least, Stephen recorded his subtle, exotic, traditional sitar to the piece. 

  Once we had it all recorded, we turned it over to Mark for a mix, as the whole thing is really his baby. Stephen mastered it, though, as he is our resident professional producer.

  Our hope is that this song inspires you to dig into Palestinian music, and through that, you recognize the magic and the humanity of millions of Palestinian people who are suffering unimaginably right now. But most of all, we hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:

Sisters and brothers
Daughters and Sons
We would give you food
But the road is blocked to sun
Proud Palestine
Brave brethren
Our hearts are with you
Our souls are weeping

Inhumane blockade of bread
Pains collective minds 
We want gone this dread
Let's find our kind
Please be strong
As we right this wrong
Hope prays that day will not be long

We pine with your God
To find a normal truth
Where your kids can grow and learn good youth
Sisters and Brothers
Daughters and Sons
We are with you Palestine
Sending love through song

The eye sees but the arm is short ( العين ترى والذراع قصيرة )

We are in the same boat ( نحن في نفس القارب )

Winds do not blow as the ships wish ( لا تهب الرياح كما تشاء السفن )

Being alone is better then being with someone bad (أن تكون وحيدا أفضل من أن تكون مع شخص سيء )

What is hidden is more then what has happened ( ما هو مخفي أكثر مما حدث )

Every problem has a solution ( لكل مشكلة حل )

Good intentions count for as much as good actions ( النوايا الحسنة لها نفس أهمية الأفعال الحسنة )

All is well that ends well ( كل شيء على ما يرام إذا انتهى بشكل جيد )

Oh My Darlin' Palestine - Eclectic Collective

“Fade” by Zemandan drifts through the space between memory and loss. A slow-sad electronica piece where melancholy meets bassy warmth.
A remembering of a departed friend in fragments: flashes of laughter, shadows of moments, the quiet nods of agreement.
Intimate, emotional, and timeless.

A song for memories that never truly fade.

Fade

My new song "This Night" is now live on SoundCloud! 🌃

This track is deeply inspired by the sounds of the 80s, a decade of music that has always moved me. I tried to capture that feeling with heartfelt saxophone lines and drums that you can really feel. 🎷 My hope is that it brings you a sense of nostalgia and energy.

I am so incredibly grateful for anyone who takes the time to listen. Your support truly means the world to me and gives me the encouragement to continue sharing my music. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. 🙏

I also want to extend a very special thank you to Tennent Buckner for creating the beautiful cover artwork for this single. Your artistry perfectly captured the mood I was hoping for. 💛

Thank you again for being on this journey with me. I would genuinely love to hear what you think of "This Night" in the comments.

Another Brand new collaboration with my pal https://soundcloud.com/billy-korg
Lyrics:-
Could I walk down the street
With my head high
If I didn't question 
All the reasons why...
That our "leaders"
Pretend to care 'bout us
But do the opposite 
That's treasonous

So sick of this veil of deception
Whether right or wrong at inception
The only way has 
Dignity and truth
Open up the windows for us
Let the light shine in dark corners
The only way has
Dinity and truth

We should peacefuly stand
And not comply
Every woman every man
Should now ask why...
Do we pay to a system
That don't work
Before it gets better
It's gonna hurt

Billy Kork/ winkandwoo 2025

Dignity and Truth

Cast of Characters:

Cgmaness – @hiddenhands-760647700 – Chris – acoustic guitar, synth, and composition

Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark –- vocals, lyrics, mix, and production

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – four string fretless Warwick bass

Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Stratocaster electric guitar

J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – piano, B3 synth voice, synth sax, and JJ's angels (voice synth)

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– master and production

This song started as a project that was begun on his guitar and synth, then shelved by our master songwriter, Chris. He always gives us magic to work with, and as soon as he shared this one with the rest of Eclectic Collective, we all jumped on it.

Mark heard his part first, and set about writing some great lyrics to sing with his solid, inimitable voice. His lyrics are about a hypothetical future where we've turned to technology in search of human connection, only to realize that it has only isolated us more, and that we really already had that connection to begin with. The narration is from a future perspective, like all this has already happened, and its speaking to us from the future, almost like a warning.
The rhythm section was still absent, though, but not for long. Ken added his groovy, perfectly in the vibe drums to it next. Josh, of course followed soon after, now that he had drums to work with, by adding his fretless four string bass to the song. Now that it was sounding like a well rounded piece, Tez came through with some thrilling guitar solos that you hear throughout. JJ first added some piano, B3, and sax to the song, then later completed it with his psychedelic synth and divine voice synth that provides the "choir" you hear in there.

Now that it was all in the bag, Mark spent considerable time and effort mixing it, then turned it over to our resident pro Stephen for the mastering.

This is one of our favorite songs we've ever done, and it reminds us all of both Pink Floyd and King Crimson. This is a great example of what the team is able to do with a really solid, yet open musical seed, provided by a master composer. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.

Original lyrics by Mistermark:
The wind by the seashore, the wash of the waves

the sand on your skin and the glance that you gave

the sounds of the carnival we left it all behind

there were words left unsaid at the back of your mind

how could I have been so blind?

It was so long ago now it’s just you and me

it seems I've forgotten the way you like your tea

the house becomes quiet as the guests head for home

the garden’s been gathered and the kids are all grown

on their own

“The robots will help” they said “it’s better this way”
“there’s no need to work and there’s more time to play”

our leaders assured us we’d never go poor

and nobody questions the truth anymore

but what did we do it all for?

Our science sustains us like fine works of art

but are we closer together or farther apart?

we’re each on an island alone on the sea

the ocean between us expands rapidly

is this where we wanted to be?

It was so long ago now it’s just you and me

it seems we’ve forgotten the way it used to be

machines tried to help us but something went wrong

the future we wanted was here all along

The wind by the seashore, the wash of the waves

the sand on your skin and the glance that you gave

the sounds of the carnival we left it all behind

there were words left unsaid…

Faded Fortunes - Eclectic Collective

“Lock Your Gates” is a dark beast of a dubstep track drowned in heavy sub-bass, cinematic orchestration and powerful female vocals. 

Music: Zemandan
Vocals: Astrid Solvrid

Lyrics: 
Lock your  gates– Be ready – The night's alive
Madness strikes – Stay close and we might survive

Chaos reigns – Yet we stand tall
Old-school friend – We’ve been through it all
Swords on fire – The night’s our stage
No rules now – Unleash the rage

Lock your gates – Be ready – The night's alive
Madness strikes – Stay close and we might survive

Steel and smoke – Pure death unfolds
Godly whispers – Be brave and bold
Keep your eyes – The night won't lie
My dear friend – We fight or die
