Message

Basic spoken word vocal idea...Lyrics:

I can't help but greet the day
Filled with fear and dismay
Wonderin' if we'll be okay
As the world goes 'round

I fear that we're losing hope
With no sense of how to cope
Ever closer to the rope
As the world goes 'round

This life's one absurdist game
That we all must gamble
Don't you bet on anything
That your heart can't handle

The Sun, it used to shine
Like so much love from the divine
Now the sky seems so unkind
Still the world goes 'round

Inside my chest my heart grows cold
Will every ounce of blood be sold
Worth much more than any gold
As the world goes 'round

If there is a lesson here
Keep all that you hold so dear
Closer than your fondest fear
As the world goes 'round

As The World Goes 'Round

Don't Give Up

Real Again

For The Pure Joy Of Rok

Bored of being stuck in bed ill and weak (nothing bad), I plugged my tele and keyboard straight into my iPad. The bass idea is borrowed. Built the rest around it.

Bedsick Blues

And the cloud descends upon mount Sinai.

This original song expresses the belief that God carries us through life with the help of angels. Though I would never profess to understand these things in any detail, I do feel that angels are all around us as surely as the darkness lurks in every day. With that I recognize that they fight for us but can't always win our battles for us. We have to accept that and know that ultimately the key is that we are never alone and always loved, even if we lose some of our battles.

Lyrics:
When Angels Fail by Craig Durgy

God, He has so much to carry, we reach out to Him in our way
With hopes that hopes won’t soon be buried, for some to fight, for some to pray

With wisdom stretched and torn between us, sight and feeling grown so frail
We trust somehow that He’ll redeem us, even when His Angel’s fail

His legions must be all about us, spreading wings to shield and heal
Evil hunts our hearts to rout us, we make ourselves its ready meal
We make ourselves its ready meal

But angels battle unrelenting, every moment, every nail
So, bear the cross be not lamenting, even when His angels fail

Time is hollow like a reed, reaching from the shadowed depths
Up in the air to breathe, and fill the void with every breath

If not for those that do God’s work, this world would long ago have died
But through the darkness, light preserved, to dry each tear that ever cried
To dry each tear that ever cried

So, when you face your worst despair, impaled upon the Devil’s tail
Fear not for your angel’s there, and through the tears love will prevail

Even when the Angel’s fail
Even when the Angel’s fail
Even when the Angel’s fail
Even when the Angel’s fail
Side by side, love will prevail

When Angels Fail

Since I started one-man band music on SC, I realized how exciting it is to play the bass. So I wanted to compose and play a song in which the bass plays the lead.
Although it took some effort, I really enjoyed playing. 
I used Jazz base made by Fender Japan.

Bass Heaven

THEME Guitar And Synth 13 12 2020

Intense silence

Synthwave inspired beat somewhere in between Pop and Hip/Hop with a slight 80s Retro vibe and eastern influence.

Namaste

Sometimes this life feels like a movie...so I guess the music I make is my personal soundtrack to it...Hope you enjoy...
