This song was written by Tez (Llanpsych)some years ago, I believe. he wrote it about a Loki-like trickster character. Little did he realize at the time that it applies perfectly to AI, too. So, with that in mind, we added the high harmonies to my vocals to give them a robotic quality. 
  Tez is also playing that ripping guitar you hear throughout. Ken (K2 and the Three, K2 and the Four) came up with perfect rocking drums for it, too, as always. He also arranged and helped me sing the oohs and aahs throughout, too. You'll hear me on the bass, organ, and vocals on this one. This is really Tez's song, though. We hope you like it.

Plus fort
Texte      : Sanzen
Chant     : Did Wilkops
Musique : Alain Illos

Dans mes sanglots agiles,
je cherche les éclats.
D'un monde qui vacille,
à l'ombre des sanctuaires.
Plus fort que jamais,
par ta voix attiré;
j'irai sans inquiétude,
avant que je m'endorme.
Dans mes sanglots faciles,
avant que vienne la nuit,
à l'ombre des sanctuaires,
je m'assierai sans doute.
C'est pour toi que je vis,
plus fort que jamais.
Et j'attendrai le jour,
je te ferai l'amour.
Le monde vacille,
je guette les moments rares.
Et nos chairs mélangées
et nos vies enlacées.
Dans mes sanglots futiles,
deux grands vaisseaux glissant.
Je rêve d'océan,
de perles et de diamants.
Dans le jour finissant,
je rêve d'oasis.
Plus fort que jamais,
de notre amour naissant.
À l'ombres des sanctuaires,
je dépose une gerbe.
Tout au fond de l'abîme,
je ressens le péril.
Je presse sur ma poitrine,
tous les noms oubliés.
Tout au fond de l'abîme,
un jour, tu m'as trouvé.

Plus Fort  avec Did Wilkops

Another relic from the lockdown vault...

I wrote and recorded this at the end of 2020 (hence no mention of the events of Jan 6th 2021) but never released it at the time for various reasons. 

Given recent events I thought why not clean it up and put it out. 

Just a bit of haaahmless fun as Arnie might say :)

This was a minor hit by David Soul (1943-2024) somewhat 40 odd years ago.  In fact I covered this a couple of years back but I was not happy with the vocals and the recording was put aside.  Lately I decided to give it another try and reworked the whole thing with an altered arrangement.  Just see what you think about it.
Thanks for stopping by.

[LYRICS]
They say maybe dreams are only movies of the mind
 Still I've lived a few
 I'm not a star
 Though in some ways I've made it
 But all these nights away is gonna lose me you
 Thought a lot about it in these back stage rooms
 And I'd leave it all, if you want me to

 #CHORUS#
Some nights, God knows I'll miss the music
 I'll miss the crowds that call my name
 I'd find contentment now
 If I thought you'd just hang' on
 Playing to an audience of one
 
Some nights, God knows it won't be easy
 I'll feel the lights I'll hear the sound
 I'll find a piece in me
 Cuddled up when the evening's done
 Sometimes playing to my audience of one

 
The endless driving, midnight arriving
 The sleeping when you can
 Still worth it somehow just for that lift
 you get when you walk on
 But just to call you up some nights between the shows
 To say "Good-night I miss you" ain't enough I know
 So I'd leave it all if you tell me so
 

I'll find a piece in me
 Cuddled up when the evening's done
 Playing to my audience of one
 Sometimes playing to my audience of one.

Repeat CHORUS

Playing to An Audience of One   (Cover)

Who saw the fantasy Fairyland 
Slipping so quickly away 
Who feels the incomprehensible 
Bend in the light of the day
Who knows the steps of the insincere
Seen at the edge of the fray 
Who climbs right out of their shiny box 
To shake and frown in dismay  

So how’d you think it’s not crime 
Twisting life on overtime 
The hourglass now bleeding through 
Making dough for fuck knows who 
Peeling open angry eyes 
Buying into ancient lies
Crush your empty soul right down 
Wear that frock and play the clown 

Let’s play the card of the complicit
Trapped in the flow of the maze 
Let’s turn the switch on the goggle box 
Feeling the rush as we gaze 
Let’s poke a pinkie into the fire 
And pray our soul does not fry 
Let’s tune our thoughts with the resonance 
Abusing our own supply 

So how’d you think it’s not crime 
Twisting life on overtime 
The hourglass now bleeding through 
Making dough for fuck knows who 
Peeling open angry eyes 
Buying into ancient lies
Crush your empty soul right down 
Wear that frock and play the clown

Can we all now just reverse the clock 
And find out what’s down in the can
Can I slowly soak in my skin 
And love myself as I am 
Can they just fuck off into the void 
And leave the old books behind 
Can you turn locks on your inner door 
And look to see what you find 

So how’d you think it’s not crime 
Twisting life on overtime 
The hourglass now bleeding through 
Making dough for fuck knows who 
Peeling open angry eyes 
Buying into ancient lies
Crush your empty soul right down 
Wear that frock and play the clown

Started as a kind of Raga--Jo created some lovely handmade words- and Stephen and his beautiful Duesenberg Guitar made some amazing droning magic to complete the vision--

TEXMEX SHAMAN: @texmex-shaman
"Always enjoy the opportunity to collaborate with Jeff and Jo. They are wizards with words and sorcerers with sound. Was happy to contribute a bit to this one."

@sonic-textures: First, there was amazing music made by STONERJAZZ. Then, I composed a poem and integrated it, surprising myself with having written the first 'love' poem in a long time - and to Snow White of all fairy-tale people! To highlight it all, TEXMEX SHAMAN made the music ring out even more beautifully. Eventually I created some artwork, inspired (by some reason I don't grasp myself at the moment) by those expensive vinyl imports from Japan. It might have to do with how much I value Jeff's and Stephen's guitar playing and creativity. It's a thrill ride to collab with those two experimental musicologists ;-)

lyrics copyright jo richter:

still wearing his headphones
in the mall's thermal flow
uranium bones
intercourse afterglow

she walks down the aisle
as light as a rainbow
sunlight on the Nile
et in arcadia ego

a bodice, a comb, eris' pear
black, red, white as snow
forces align, forces shear
a million mirrors in a row

she walks down the aisle
as light as a rainbow
sunlight on the Nile
et in arcadia ego

et  in arcadia ego- featuring Sonic Structures and Silent Stretches and TexMex Shaman

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

Self-doubt is a killer. Sometimes you just have to drown out all the noise.

IT’S NOT OVER

It’s all over
It’s all over
It’s all over
It’s all over
Did you think that it would never end
Did you lose your mind
Did you think that you were going blind
That maybe you might be one of a kind

It’s all over
It’s all over
It’s all over
It’s all over
Maybe it’s time to try again
Maybe it’s time for a second glance
Maybe a small thing overlooked
And maybe maybe maybe you’re alone in your nook

Oh-oh
They tell you
Oh-oh
They yell ya
Oh-oh
They fell you
Oh-Oh
It’s hell ya
Oh-oh
They tell you
Oh-oh

They tell you
It’s all over
Tell you
It’s all over
They tell you
It’s all over
Tell you
It’s all over
You can see beyond the doubt
You can feel what’s right and what’s wrong
All this time and its not so bad
You’re all alone and you had it all figured out
It’s not over
It’s not over

It's Not Over

Arriving to a music festival, the vibes grow on you. People as excited as you are. Feels so good to dance, sing and party collectively.

Where and when?
