GLORIA

Baby I get no fascination
With your pretty face
It’s just I want my sticky fingers
Roaming ‘round your place
Dollar bills misplaced in pockets
Of your forgotten coats, are
Enough to feed my nasty habits
Bless me I’m the pope
Of dope and lost hope, ah

I climbed right into this gutter
Didn’t need your help
You seem to think that I want better
That I might elope
Well I got news now darling
My heart is true
Just not to you my lover
What’s a girl to do
Well adieu

I have seen the light
Don’t show me
I know the world is cruel
You said you’d do what you could to help me, well
Fifty bucks would do
I know you can’t stand to see me
So pull your eyelids low
Open your eyes
I’m not the one who’s lying
To me
It’s you, oh

Pope

This track is inspired by an old piece from 1982, which we played in my third Band. At that time we were enthusiastic and wanted to make music as a living. But we all ended up somewhere else, only our singer made it, as he joined Pink Cream 69 and later Helloween, where they are playing the big festivals till today :-)
I myself had stopped playing at all, focused on my profession and touched only the acoustic guitar from time to time. My Marshall JCM 800 and my Fender were becoming more and more living room Accessoires and were nicely looking hanging untouched at the wall. In 2015 my son woke up music in me again, when he came to me playing a song he had created with GarageBand on an iPad. Then the guitar flame started to burn again and finally the result you can listen here. I hope you enjoy it.

And you wanna be peace to mankind 
Really want to be father and mother

Want to be - the ripple and wave 
Really want to know yourself completely

Ooh

And you want to be king of the ball
You really want to be an emotional person

Do you really want to hold feelings to ransom 
Do you want to be cruel to be kind 
Do you really want to lose good intentions

In 2020 we all needed a trapdoor from the world. Here's to 2021!
Lyrics:
I'm not holding out much hope
Just wait down here 
Until you hear the footsteps just slowly disappear
Looking for your own little hideaway from the world?
Make yourself a trapdoor
And drop out of the universe
(Trapdoor)
A side door, that's what you need to do
A side door to pop in and out through the world
Wait down here with me
Just wait until you hear the footsteps disappear
(Trapdoor)
You've got make a trapdoor
Got to see where it goes
It down a long alleyway
It takes you Into a big city with lots of cars and cabs
(there's no cabs no more, what are you talking about?)
You never seem to go
You're drinking toxins in a cup
Hey Baby, don't you know about the divinity of throwing up?
I've seen so many good intentions gone bad 
Like you'll never know!
Yeah (come on) make you're best intention known
I know I'm an acquired taste
That's what you got to do
Set yourself a trapdoor from the world
Trapdoor from the world
Set yourself a trapdoor
Trapdoor (that's what you're looking for!)
That's what you've been looking for your entire life
It's come to fruition!

Trapdoor (from the world)

I welcome this new year with a HOWWWLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!

______________

I knew it this time & I’m on the run
I hear a shooting gun, a rifle shot and I blow apart
if you aim it at our heart then it’s gonna be a new start
vengeance, when we bare our teeth a little more
anymore it’ll be, more it’ll be in a moonlit mirror, madness laughs with me
I have a drink and a song & I fuck it in a song
in a war time dream madness runs along
Irish heat call a million dead next to me
when iron heels call me, crush me in the street
moon animals gotta move your feet
poor in my head, it’s war in your head or you’re dead on the street
I feel you next to me, I am a moon animal, I feel you changing in my toes up my toes
feel it in my soul in my soul, oh sweet moonshine shine your light on me!!!!
I am a moon animal I feel it feel it in my soul
aaaaaaahwwwwwoooooooooooo!!!!
moon amore one more spin in the moon I am once again
in howling night I’ll ride that music to the sky
and end where I began

The Kamakura period (jap. 鎌倉時代, Kamakura jidai; 1185-1333) is an era in Japanese history. It took its name from the Shōgun's seat of government at the time in Kamakura. It marked the rise of the warrior nobility over the court nobility in Kyōto, which still dominated in the Heian period.

Die Kamakura-Zeit (jap. 鎌倉時代, Kamakura jidai; 1185–1333) ist eine Epoche der japanischen Geschichte. Sie erhielt ihren Namen vom damaligen Regierungssitz des Shōgun in Kamakura. Sie markiert den Aufstieg des Kriegeradels gegenüber dem Hofadel in Kyōto, der in der Heian-Zeit noch dominierte.

Thanks for indulging my weird ideas Bitzone, you are the best!

This song is part of an LP of 12 songs that I made with Stricknice, Bitzone, and Wou-Wou & The Wormling (and many other friends who you all know on SoundCloud) from a massive set of demo tracks that Wou-Wou graciously passed on to me. Basically, this LP worth of songs was an early pandemic gift cause I had a little extra time on my hands to make music! I was originally going to release all the songs in one long track but one of my muses kept telling me to release this song on its own and I eventually succumbed to her wishes. I am massively grateful for all the work Stricknice, Bitzone, and Wou-Wou put into this big project. There may be more songs from this project that trickle out before the whole set is released. It was super cool to finally work with Bontender on a song. I have been a big fan of his indie rock sound for a long time. Bonetender rocks!!! 

This song goes out to all the loners, weirdoes, freaks, and geeks out there. Who cares what society wants you to be. Be yourself and you just do you! There are plenty of normal people in the world already.

Lyrics

Watching you out the corner of my eye 
Memorize your schedule to pass by
Feeling your energy get closer to intensify
Don’t think I’m a creep I’m really a nice guy

Why can’t I just walk up and say hi
I’d rather watch you from the wall like a fly

Ghosting out of my Generation 

Watching you out the corner of my eye
Seeing you finally here to pass by
Inhale your scent to remember I retry
Don’t want to think I’m a creep so I lie

Why can’t I just walk up and say hi  
I’d rather stay up against the wall like a fly

Ghosting out of my Generation 

Watching you out the corner of my eye
Waiting all day for you to pass by
Feeling you brush against me I electrify
Don’t think I’m a creep I’m really a nice guy

Why can’t I just walk up and say hi
I’d rather watch you from the wall like a fly

Ghosting out of my Generation

In My Mind

To Everything There Is A Season 
January 2021
Duration: 3:00
For strings, pianos, woodwinds, vitrual instuments and percussion

From Ecclesiastes, written c. 450–200 BCE, one of the "Wisdom" books of the Old Testament: 
To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

To Everything There Is A Season

Original poem song (very rough bedroom recording!)
Words + music + voice by Rachel

LYRICS:

V1: Thoughts speak louder than words
In the boxes of images that let down my world
As I stare in your gaze
I try to stay strong 
but I'm not sure what that entails

CH
Cos I could have followed your stride
And you could have glimpsed a sign of my light
Cos with all that's left behind
I never seem to lose, the aura of your smile

V2: They say it gets easier with time
but the minute hand's so slow
and as the weeks come clashing by
my jukebox rolls

CH
Cos I could have followed your stride
And you could have glimpsed a sign of my light
Cos with all that's left behind
I never seem to lose, the aura of your smile

Aura of your smile

Lyrics:

Primal instincts triggered hard
Primal damaged inner guard

Im forced to hold my breath
I barely see an exit
my heart begins to pound
i can almost hear that sound

Primal instincts triggered hard
Primal damaged inner guard

feels like its beyond my control
all my light is used to survive
I lost my will to fight
all I can do is flight

Primal instincts triggered hard
Primal damaged inner guard
Primal instincts triggered hard
my frightened damaged inner child

Primal Instincts

Multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer from Stockholm, Sweden.
Over the years, this space has been my personal therapy, a place to explore sounds, emotions, and ideas. Along the way, it’s also become a playground for collaborations and creative adventures. I experiment across genres, but my music often drifts toward the atmospheric, moody realms of trip-hop.
