Las creencias del Color Amarillo

Intense 

Intense 

The darkness is intense
The brightness is intense 
The noise is intense
The quiet is intense
The people are intense
Being alone is intense

Feel, feel, feel, feel 
Feel my way
The moving raw emotion
Raw emotion comes my way

The darkness is intense
The brightness is intense 
The noise is intense
The quiet is intense
The people are intense
Being alone is intense


Spin, spin, spin, spin
Spin a thought 
Weave it in and weave it out now
Find the missing link between us
It’s intense
It’s intense 
It’s intense

The blankness is intense
The patterns are intense 
The static is intense
The movement is intense
The outside is intense
The inside is intense.

Some months ago I've been paired with Geoff to compose a song based on his lyrics "I'm not angry". The lyrics were so well-phrased that I heard the stomping of an angry, but fierce woman who is going through a divorce. Alyssa did an awesome job getting into the character and her voice is perfect for that song. Originally composed on the guitar, I am happy that Albert joined our team. We really needed that dark vibe in between folk and blues.

==== LYRICS ====

You used to be grounded
You used to be whole
Knew where you were going
Hit all of your goals

I used to be happy
I used to be glad
Knew what I was doing
Was pleased what I had

But I’m not angry
About what used to be
Don’t seek retribution
Or shake you from your sanctuary

We had a communion
We had a divorce
The pain and the pleasure
Took it’s own course

Down through the river
And out in the street
To wash over strangers
Shoes and their feet

But I’m not angry
About what used to be
Don’t seek retribution
Or shake you from your sanctuary

No I don’t care
For the love that’s been and gone
Cos a runaway train
Was waiting all along
Yes a runaway train
Was waiting all along

I'm Not Angry

This track is a collaboration with SeaShea https://on.soundcloud.com/CnDF4
A small opportunity arose, and I offered Seashea, whom I've admired for a long time, to play the guitar on this track. He kindly accepted, and together we created this song. I love watching Sea; he also loves the sea, so I named it accordingly. This year, Tokyo is unusually hot, with temperatures sometimes exceeding 38 degrees Celsius. In the midst of such heat, he sent a cool breeze from the opposite season in Australia. I hope that everyone who listens to it can feel refreshed.
This song travels back and forth between Japan and Australia like the wind, crossing the Pacific.

I asked Xian3 if he'd like to add his input to a previous dance song instrumental.  IMHO, his vocals give it an 80's on-the-dance-floor feel.

Music and Lyrics: Mike Krath
Vocals: Xian3

Lyrics:
There are chords D, A, C, E, 
But no N. 
where’s N?
On the dance floor,

Again,
These chords D, A, C, E, 
But no N. 
where’s N?
On the dance floor.

There’s E as a solitary chord,
But where’s L, O, V?
Where’s its companions? Huh?
On the dance floor,
On the dance floor. 

D, A, C, E,
L, O, V,
N side,
The dance floor. 

N, R, Y,
with E and G,
And B and T
With E and A,
Where?
WHERE?
On the dance floor,
On the dance floor.

D, A, C, E,
L, O, V,
N side,
N side,
N side,
The dance floor.

D, A, C, E.

If you don’t like?
Then you can…
L, O, V it,
Or L, V it. 
If you don't like, 
then you can,
L, O, V it
Or L, V it,
On the dance floor 
On the dance floor.

On The Dance Floor (collab with Xian3)

Sound advice: Jack


He’s quite useless
Not much of a catch
Like a big smile, toothless
For you he’s no great match

But if the scene could be different 
And if our minds would reset
If we Ignore the raging current
Could it be much of a threat 

Many miles in his worn out shoes
Doing this, doing that. Doing what he’s been told
I think he’s looking for clues
But he ain’t got silver nor gold

Stick
If he point out a spot
Showing something you haven’t got
Kindly offer you a cup of tea
Would you share a short time with me

He’s not much of a threat

I’m a song-writer who enjoys creating music of any genre.

My son recently introduced me to A.I. and taught me how to do covers of my previously released non-A.I. music. Since I've never considered myself a performer (except playing with worship bands at church or solo-piano at a rehab center) using A.I. is right up my alley.

Since I've  exhausted using my previously released music for A.I. covers, I now compose music in a DAW, rip to a wave file, and make an A.I. cover of this wave file. I then write lyrics to the A.I. music. It takes around 100 A.I. iterations to complete the lyrics and get a style I'm happy with.  

Brief Bio: Lived more than a quarter of my life overseas (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan). Each country gave me an appreciation for different types of music plus probably why I get bored easily in sticking with one genre or another.
