at the party
in your kaftan

hesitating never knowing what to say

sunday morning
ruffled pillows

what just happened, am i waking all alone
was i dreaming how come i can’t find my phone

heart is racing
head is spinning

my new boyfriend i don’t even know your name
be my boyfriend never thought i’d play this game
listen boyfriend you have left me overthrown
be my boyfriend you can even keep the phone

Boyfriend

I am very grateful for the over 1,200 plays of this very personal track. To think I was hesitant to even post it... Thank you so much! ❤️

In our lives, we are granted the opportunity to witness the departure of our loved ones. Some depart through doors, never to return, yet still exist somewhere. Others leave suddenly, unexpectedly. Yet some depart when we are somewhat prepared, for their age predisposes them to it. However, there are also departures more challenging... when we observe the tree of the mind of a beloved, from which memories' leaves fall, and even the freshest, youngest cannot hold on to it. We cannot help, we can only watch how they fall...

Composing this little piece was very personal. It was combined with the realization of a fact from my immediate surroundings. I left all imperfections of my playing because of how I felt at that moment. It wasn't an improvisation, it was an interpretation of a theme that I've developed few minutes earlier.

Hey, what can I say? Sometimes it gets rough. But it's still good.

on a summer blanket
in the moonlight
with the beach stones stirring
after midnight

i am ready
and i dare

god you know you’re tired
may you rest now
many ways to try it
lay the load down

i am ready (good to go)
i am there (going)

hey hey hey who
checkout avenue

on tomorrow’s bastion
once immortal
now you sense the ending
as a portal

i am ready
honeybear
i’m not waiting 
i am there

i am ready (here’s my ride)
and i dare (good night)
we’re not waiting (good to go)
we are there

Thunder Pants

Too bad I was your Rembrandt in waiting
Though you sensed you were Ms Convenience
So many days in a chamber debating
Instead of between sheets of Salinas

There you go again 
Mount Vesuvius – in your hands
Manufacturing pain
Emphatically – Thunder Pants
(your cross you bear is burning dangerously near)
(Here seeking comfort from anxiety wizened)

So soon the ejector seat after the thrill
Brings the acid to the back of your teeth
You can’t let it go like a Janice girl
So it’s almost time to lay a wreath

A rational man would cut you dead
But testosterone makes fools of the best

Sometimes it seems that you’re talking nice
But I know it’s the crack end of the bench
It’s a midday roast and my tongue is dry
Anticipating that rapier sledge

Thunder Pants

just a little piece. to be tucked in on the second half of an upcoming album.

チャットGPTとの共作曲１曲目「Oriental Mist（東洋の霧）」です。東洋的な印象は希薄です笑。「Mist＝霧」なので、全体にモヤモヤした音です。提案されたコードはベースをルートから変えたり、ピアノでコード外の音も乗せてなるべくモヤっとした神秘な感じにしました

The first song "Oriental Mist" co-written with Chat GPT. The oriental impression is not so strong. Since it is "Mist," the overall sound is a muffled one. I changed the bass from the root to the proposed chord, and added some other notes on the piano to make it sound as mysterious and fuzzy as possible.

「アジアの風景」シリーズ

These words
These feelings
I can't express

This romance
This longing
The times I've tried and failed

So let's not think about real life
It just complicates things
So I'll say I'm not in love
With anyone

This life
This fiction
I can't accept

This freedom
This longing
The choices that I've never made

So let's not think about the truth
It just complicates things
So I'll say I don't belong
Anywhere

And I know I don't have to
Hate myself but
Sometimes just sometimes
It's the easiest thing to do

And I really don't want to
Fall for you but
It would just be the
The easiest thing
Just the easiest thing to do

These words
These feelings
I can't explain

This romance
These choices that
I don't really understand so

So let's not think about real life
It just complicates things
So I'll say I'm not in love
With anyone

I'm in the process of renovating/updating various aspects of my studio, adding new hardware/software. New music on the way.

I'm a believer in true social interaction on SC, having intelligent dialogue with artists, and giving personal feedback that is (hopefully) more inspired than "Nice."  There are a lot of decent artists here not attempting to "go viral", sharing great music that deserves to be heard and not drowned out by bots.  Encouragement/criticism promotes growth, so say something worth something.
