I think this is one of your best works. Beautiful piece!!!🙏👍🙂

It rather sounds like a warm embrace than an alien invasion...unless that what an alien invasion sounds like... ;). A wonderful piece, Michele.

To be in the arms of one's beloved, having fallen asleep to a film they may have seen for the 10th time, but love the happy ending.  There is rest in knowing a certain outcome so sleep comes easily as the does the first light of dawn.  This is music that illumines both; peace and light...and stills the soul as I listen.  Exquisite work Michele.  This has been an enriching series, and a perfect example of meaningful "recycling";)

Lyrics:
Laid out over an endless flat plain of white sand
Comfortable bleaching in the naked Sun
Lean-to's covered with tattered cloth close by
Safety in arms from which you cannot pry

No fever here
Dressing hold tight upon the wounds
There isn't a single square inch to clean
No refuse to collect
no steam, no dunes

Discussion holds no value
Traps are welcomed and sought
My surrounding core is this desolate and hot
A life made to be extant
No thought thrown to future or past
Missing desires and prophecies
to declare or recant

This model has all the gears of a clock
Frame of wire suspending rock
Made as a diagram for young minds
to learn and dissect
The basis of which is incorrect

I haven't been into anything else
Have not been approached by the workings of a similar core
How these nights are all Sun
Encroached by the beautiful poignantly sore
How these comforts I tease are
oblivion of war

I'm etching a new model in this flat taste
The warmth of those arms
with need, shame, necessity 
with greedy intent
I have disgraced

Forgive me this trespass
this torrential waste

“Even the darkest night will end, and the sun will rise.” – Victor Hugo

The older I get, the earlier I seem to wake up every morning, which means I see the sun rise every day. It never gets old. I love the beauty of the sun gently rising, as it slowly erases the dark night sky and paints the blue sky with accents of orange and pink. The birds wake up singing, and nature comes to life again after a night of rest. Every dawn is beautiful, bringing not only the gift of a new day but also hope and wonder at the miracle of it all. While the dark night has a beauty of its own that we sometimes struggle to see, it is the dawn that truly reminds us what a gift it is to be alive.

This nostalgic blues came to me these days as a reminder of the early sixties, the guitars of Chet Atkins, Peter Green and others without whom I would never play guitar. Thank them!

lyrics

Above you like a bird
I'm floating so high
Look down upon your face
And I see a smile

What's your secret girl
What's your secret now
What's your secret girl
What's your secret now

What's your drug that's making you happy
Surely it can't be him
No it can't be him

What's your drink
What's your drug
What's your secret
What's your drink
What's your drug
What's your secret
What's your secret

What is that secret that you keep from me girl
What's your secret
What's your

Surely you got a new pet
Dog or cat
Surely you got your new girlfriend
She's better than that
To be finding a man so soon
After you broke my heart
Must be your secret
A brand new start

What's your secret
What's your drug
What's your drink
Is it a drug
Is it a drink
What's your secret darling
Is it the blue skies in the wind
Is it the grass that grows on the ground

Let's begin again
What's your secret
What's your secret
Is it a drug
Is it a drink
What's your secret now
Is it a drug
Is it a drink
What's your secret
Tell me it's not a man
What's the secret girl

What's Your Secret?

’Celestial Respite,’ is an instrumental track that fuses classical orchestral elements with ambient vibes. I hope this soundscape helps you unwind as it transports you to an impossible realm of cosmic, infinite peace.

'The Minstrel and the Jester' Just a title that popped into my head. This is where it went.

Beats Alive... Spanish Obsession Pt 2 (Instrumental)

I think it’s just the music playing over the end credits of the film (obviously titled "In case nothing happens") our two friends (assuming they really are our friends) were watching before falling asleep. So there’s nothing to worry about: nothing has happened. It’s not a real alien invasion, nor is it the end of our civilization. Or maybe it’s not a film at all, but a live breaking news broadcast? If that were the case, and if something really had happened, I still don’t think we should be sad or angry, desperate or ready to run away. Let’s stay positive! (all talk, of course...).

This is the sixth in a series of eight easy, acoustic, rather short (except for this one), and deliberately inconclusive tracks, assembled by combining new ideas with reworked older material, adding parts and sounds along the way. Since the perspective has changed, the meaning of the music had to change as well, so I moved from an acoustic guitar base to a piano one.

Composed by Michele Ansani (2022-2025). I reworked on the chords and melodies from an old track I didn’t like, which had remained only in draft form: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/slowness.
All the ambient noises and female vocals are taken from public sound archives.

In case nothing happens - part 6 (dawn again)*

Hello! I’m a university professor of history who enjoys playing guitar and piano/keyboard, and occasionally composing — unpretentiously, just for fun. I’ve been here for at least 10 years, but only recently have I started using the platform for something other than just external digital storage.
Most of my recordings (made with a KorgD8, Audacity, and more recently Reaper for MIDI and the Spitfire Audio libraries) are entirely homemade and decidedly imperfect. And yet, I think that lately I’ve learned to do something a bit more - and better - also thanks to greater commitment.
My music includes old songs (all written back in the last century; here I’ve only shared the ones I’ve reworked in recent years) as well as both old and new instrumentals — usually in several versions, some of which eventually disappear because they’re simply unlistenable.

Thanks for stopping by and giving something a listen; in the description you’ll often find explanatory notes or translations of the lyrics.
Here I’ve discovered a community of talented musicians and songwriters, and plenty of beautiful music to enjoy. Whenever I like, comment, or repost a track, it’s always the result of attentive listening. For the same reason, I’m not interested in trading empty “likes” without real engagement, and I won’t reply to messages from would-be promoters — follower counts don’t matter to me in the slightest.

Update (2024, September 9). Completed the "AI & (fake) songwriting project". Here: https://soundcloud.com/mick-hansan 

P.S.: A prayer, a humble request to those who publish songs: use the description area to make the lyrics available... This would make listening to them more complete and enjoyable!

I've posted some 'live' homemade performance here: https://www.instagram.com/michele_ansani/
