I dared to try my hand at a "Lullaby". The piece was created with Cubase 12 and some VST. I hope you like it. If so, I'm looking forward to your comments  - if you haven't fallen asleep ;-)

Lullaby

Pucker Up

Immersed in the intense green of nature,we enjoy, 
as long as we are allowed, 
the light breeze of the wind that caresses our faces!

Variations inspired by a theme of a liturgical song

Variazioni ispirate a un tema di un canto liturgico:
Nella casa del Padre (I ed.)
ELLE DI CI (Torino-Leumann)
n. 47 (V. Meloni-D. Stefani)

Andante Pastorale

Hopefully this will help the hot summertime blues.
My childhood fantasy of a broken down ice cream truck having to give away all the ice cream. Chaos begins.
Lyrics:
We loved our ice cream in the Summertime
All the neighborhood kids
With their nickels and dimes
You can hear him down the block
That crazy fun house chime
He calls himself
"The Good Humor Man"
I don't know why
His face looks like he's a victim of crime

Sad
Man 
Ice cream 
Truck
Your truck is overheating and now you are stuck
That ice cream's melting
Give it to us?
Sad man ice cream truck
Sad man ice cream truck
Oh that ice cream is melting
And he's giving it to us!
Sad man ice cream truck

 Oh there's about 150 kids
I've seen kids (not from around here)
From far away as 5th Avenue 
And Columbus Circle
We want our Drumsticks!
Firecrackers!
And the Popsicles!
That turn your lips purple

Sad
Man 
Ice cream 
Truck
Your trucks is overheating 
Now you are stuck
Sad man ice cream truck
All that ice cream is melting
And he's giving it to us!
Sad man ice cream truck

All this ice cream
It's all for free!
Well, can't you see?
It's a price that can't be beat
In the summer heat
The kids over eat
Now there are kids over there
Puking in the street!
The cops come and bust up the fuss
Oh ice cream man you're a hero to us

Sad man ice cream truck
Your truck is overheating and now you are stuck
Sad man ice cream truck...

Sad Man Ice Cream Truck Blues

Hello dear Listeners,

This is the 'Radio Edit' of an improvised piece almost twice the length.

It's truly a beauty, and one of the peak experiences guitarist Tim Elliot and I have had together as Shekinah Fire.

I'm playing my ES7 Stage Keyboard and he's on his Attila Custom electric Guitar... 

May you enJoy !

Beyond Belief * (Temple Edit)

(Firstly, apologies for being away from SC for a while, I'm not able to be as active on here these days, but looking forward to catching up with all your latest creations...)

A few months ago, I posted a cover of one of my favourite songs, 'In Your Eyes', by Peter Gabriel. Here's that version:
https://soundcloud.com/user-432503709/in-your-eyes-cover

The original song is so rich in sounds and instrumentation that I had always intended to post a remix version that showcases all the other things you may not catch in the main song. So, I've finally uploaded the remix version. This remix is quite different, and includes an extended intro that Mr. Gabriel always does in his live performances. There's also a sneaky sample of another PG song in there if you can spot it!

Almost all instruments are played by me on keyboard, as well as the live talking drum (not on this remix) and spotty singing, with the exception of some cool synth pads and some backing vocals by @remnant60. Bill is also a fan of the song and helped me a lot with suggestions when I was working on the original cover, so many thanks to him again! And thanks to you for listening.

In Your Eyes  (MAJOR REMIX)

In September 1890, Susan and John Dunham of Tolland sold “a piece of land on the north side of the highway known as Dog Lane” to the fourth district for a schoolhouse.  They were paid $50 for it. The Dog Lane School served the Storrs community until 1930 when the new Storrs Grammar School opened (now the Audrey Beck Municipal Center in Storrs, CT).
