Music Is What Feelings Sound Like

Que fais-tu baby?

"I was thinking about Summer anthems and how they always seem to be about going out and having a good time with friends. What about the people who want to stay in over Summer - the introverts? Where is their anthem? Inspired by those great Rock tunes over the years; "Let's Get Rocked", "She Hates Me", “Teenage Dirtbag” and "Beverly Hills" I set out to write an old school guitar Rock anthem that is really fun and quirky. This song is inspired by my favourite record producer Mutt Lange and Def Leppard’s “Hysteria” album. PLAY LOUD. 

An anthem for those stay at home Rockers - "Introverts Summer"

Introverts Summer
I'm having an introverts Summer

I'm listening to my music
I've been watching TV
I'm binging all the movies that I've already seen
I see you in the sunlight drinking your beers
I'm staying on the second floor
The view is better up here

I'm having an introverts Summer
I'm having an introverts Summer

I wanna stay home and play guitar
I'm gonna plug in and play "Hysteria"
I need some time alone to stop and think
Tell them all that I'm out when the phone rings

I'm having an introverts Summer
I'm having an introverts Summer

Introverts Summer
Introverts Summer

I'm having an introverts Summer 
(I'm not going out)
I'm having an introverts Summer
(I'm staying in)

I'm having an introverts Summer
I'm having an introverts Summer

Introverts Summer 2024

While I was thinking about what kind of song I should create, 
 I ended up finishing it. I can't clearly name the theme or the impression I had when listening to this song. However, for some reason I think acoustic jazz drums look good on it, so I published it.
 It seems like the fun part of the music has increased a little. 
 I would be happy if you could listen to it.

CHAINS (2024)

..someone say that May is a crucial month in the year.
 it has always brought strange suggestions to me, difficult to describe.
 clear skies, oppression, promises.
 a sense of latency, something imminent that never comes to an end.
It's the second version, i find new parts for a more rich harmonic, melodic and rythmic structure. now need to work on the dinamic of notes and the legatos with the pedal.

The title refers to the magnificent poem of the same name 
by Arthur Rimabud, written in May 1872.

Still in progress

Bannières de mai:

Aux branches claires des tilleuls
Meurt un maladif hallali.
Mais des chansons spirituelles
Voltigent parmi les groseilles.
Que notre sang rie en nos veines,
Voici s’enchevêtrer les vignes.
Le ciel est joli comme un ange.
L’azur et l’onde communient.
Je sors. Si un rayon me blesse
Je succomberai sur la mousse.
Qu’on patiente et qu’on s’ennuie
C’est trop simple. Fi de mes peines.
Je veux que l’été dramatique
Me lie à son char de fortune.
Que par toi beaucoup, ô Nature,
– Ah moins seul et moins nul! – je meure.
Au lieu que les Bergers, c’est drôle,
Meurent à peu près par le monde.
Je veux bien que les saisons m’usent.
À toi, Nature, je me rends;
Et ma faim et toute ma soif.
Et, s’il te plaît, nourris, abreuve.
Rien de rien ne m’illusionne;
C’est rire aux parents, qu’au soleil,
Mais moi je ne veux rire à rien;
Et libre soit cette infortune.

Mai 1872

Bandiere di maggio:

Tra i rami dei tigli
muore un esangue grido di caccia.
Ma canzoni argute
volteggiano fra l’uva spina.
Il sangue rida nelle nostre vene:
ecco che già s’intrecciano le viti.
Il cielo è leggero come un angelo.
L’azzurro e l’onda si confondono.
Esco. Se un raggio mi ferisce
io morirò sul muschio.
Pazientare ed annoiarsi
è troppo semplice. Al diavolo le mie pene.
Io voglio che la drammatica estate
mi leghi al suo carro della fortuna.
Possa io morire per opera tua, Natura,
ma meno vuoto e meno solo!
Mentre i Pastori, è strano,
muoiono quasi per opera del mondo.
Desidero che le stagioni mi consumino.
A te, Natura, io mi arrendo,
con la mia fame e tutta la mia sete.
E tu, per favore, nutri e disseta.
Niente, più niente mi illude;
ridere al sole, è ridere ai genitori,
ma io non voglio ridere più a nulla;
e libera sia questa sventura.
Maggio 1872

緑陰 (shade of trees)

As a boy, my dad raised seahorses as a hobby.   He always told me that after the babies were born, the mom had to be removed from the tank so she wouldn't eat them.   I later realized this was a metaphor.

Hymn To The Return

Cast of characters:
Well-- @user-370942421-686440500 – Hakan – synth, beat, and seed idea
Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur– guitar
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez– guitar, mix, and production 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –five-string fretless bass guitar, synth

This song began with Artur inviting Josh onto a project that he and Hakan had just started that consisted of the beat and a synth line—the one that opens the song—supplied by Hakan. Josh added his five string fretless bass to it first, coming up with an idea of how it could sound. Then, Josh asked Tez to get in on it, too, because Tez not only has an affinity for the genre, but an aptitude for it, as well. After Tez laid down his hot guitar, Josh went back and played his idea, but accounted for Tez's jamming, too, this time. After the basic tracks were done, Artur brought his vibrato/delay guitar magic to the jam, too. Then, Josh added the various synth voices that you hear throughout. ​
  Every great song needs a great producer, and Tez was the man for this job. He brought it all together and used our various parts like a conductor uses different parts of a symphony. This is the fist song that Tez and Josh have done with Hakan. Artur and he are musical partners, so if you dig this song, you would probably like what's on their pages, too. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
