Very nice variations in the third part,,very good work!

This is a piece I wrote many years ago, and recorded this duet with myself on Mandolin, and my good friend Allan Cook on Guitar.

I uploaded this piece some time ago as private, and shared with a few people whom I have come to be friends with here on SoundCloud, but have decided to release it publicly, at the urging of one such friend, Liz Dicker (Thank You Liz).

This is a special piece to me, as I wrote it when I was much younger, about 20 or so. In addition, my sister Kristina requested it for her wedding in place of traditional music.

It was also a defining moment, when Allan and I realized we had a special musical connection. I wrote the mandolin part, and when I showed him what I had written, he picked up his acoustic guitar, and like magic, he just knew what to play to perfectly accompany what I had written. This was not the only time this was evident, but it was the first time it was crystal clear to us both.

This recording is an excerpt from an extended improvised jam session we had with other friends, and for which he has the entire recording on his channel. It was recorded informally, and as a live performance, or perhaps better described as a group of musical friends having fun. We opened the recording with Allan and I playing this piece, and then went where the wind took us from there.

I hope you enjoy listening.

If you are interested in hearing the entire recording, it is at the linked track below.

Baroque Mandolin Guitar Duet

Following a recent study of musical chords,I focused on the Phrygian cord structure and its suitability for Eastern music styles.
Hence my first attempt at this unique musical style .
This is very different to my usual selections and compositions.

OUT OF THE BOX / EILEEN OLSEN - Madness MIX

On a cool bright evening
in the middle of May
He was sittin' all alone 
just waiting beside the train

And she left one morning
on the northbound line
on the run from what her life became 
and the ones who robbed her blind

But he wasn't waitin' for her
and he couldn't read minds
and she wasn't heading anywhere
in particular that time

And at first they never noticed it
But on the second look they did
and as they talked he took the chance 
to say all the words he'd never said

He said, "I'll take you out tomorrow
it's just a drive away from home.
But if you fall in love with me again
you will never be fine."

She said "she's only flyin solo."
Since he left her all alone
And if she fell in love with him
He could never ask why
He could never ask why
He could never ask why

And at times you feel the world turn
when you stand real still
And you fumble for the words you need
to describe the way it feels

And the way it feels is often the way 
it'll keep you awake at night
If you chase the ghosts that haunt your dreams
then you'll never see the light

Cause the light is right before you
if you care to turn it on
And you could pull back on the darkness
if you can't tell him that he's wrong

And you turn the light and tear the 
ticket up that's in your hand
Walkin' off into the sunset 
in a life that lies ahead

She said she's, "never gonna go home."
and, "let's runaway tonight."
And when she fell in love with him again
he could never ask why

He said "that they could leave tomorrow
to anywhere that they could fly."
And when she fell in love with him before
He didn't need to know why
He didn't need to know why
He didn't need to know why

She said, "don't worry about tomorrow,
it's all the way across the night.
Cause if you fall in love with me again
you will never be fine."

He said that, "I could handle myself,
and don't worry if I'm right,
because I fell in love with you 
the minute you came into my sight."
You came into my sight
You came into my sight

Don't Worry About Tomorrow

U-The Garage Queen

Danger, Run

a new song that occurred to me at this precise moment and it is more than clear that the synthesizers belong to my boyfriend Carlos Bergmann who has a large recording studio and the truth is that there are more synthesizers every day! For this occasion I use a Roland synthesizer that is not bad at all and the sound is good and the passages that occurred to me at the time do not have much elaboration but in the end it is a song! I await your opinion on this!

Lunatics 138 With You / joerxworx & Ratzzz

Dark forest circling
shadows approaching
This papers all I need 
Madness, in focus
3rd eye is opening 
Friends seem like strangers
Time has gone missing 
..sink down in the tall grass 

The sky has turned to glass
Shards of reflection 
I’m frozen to the grass
Purpose, intention 
This papers all I need 
Instant confusion 
Twisted reality 
Sink down in the tall grass..


I wish it was different 
I wish I had opinions 
I wish I could remember 
Times of ancient spender 
I am only breathing for you now 
When will times get brighter 
When will bricks get lighter 
When can I stop breathing 
When will you deceive me
I am only breathing for you now

In this tŵisted reality (I’m) only breathïng
