Hommage à une amie disparue.

Consolation

A little more tenderness,
I need it so much.
Look,  sister,
See what I've become—
A shadow without flame,
Drowned in disgust,
A puppet without a soul,
Everything weeps, everything is blurred.
Hold me in your arms,
And together let’s find again,
You know, this consolation.
Come into my arms,
And together let’s find again,
You know, this consolation.
The sea has receded,
Silently and fearlessly.
The waves have carved
Our cheeks and our hearts.
Suddenly orphaned,
The pebbles roll and crackle
On the soft sand,
Inviting us to unite.
Hold me in your arms,
And together let’s find again,
You know, this consolation.
Come into my arms,
And together let’s find again,
You know, this consolation.
A little more tenderness,
I need it so much.
Look, sister,
See what I’ve become.
It’s time to embrace,
To accept the sorrows,
To sing our prayers
For the living and the dead.
Hold me in your arms
And together let’s find again,
You know, this consolation.
Held tight in our arms,
From chrysalis to butterfly,
Let’s find consolation again.

Consolation

Sometimes The Heart Is All We Need

Quand la musique est érotisme et sensualité pétillante et insouciante.

La Nuit Qui Nous D​é​vore

Amour Ténébreux

Don't care

A Starship Built of Whale Songs

J'ai caressé l'espoir de te revoir un de ces soirs
Mais des fois c'est bizarre comme la vie nous sépare
J'étais comme un enfant qui se croit bien plus grand et se casse les dents
Alors il se ment dans ses sentiments

J'ai cherché tout' la nuit ces morceaux de ma vie tombés au fond du puits
Retrouver me esprits et ce que je suis
Je reprends le combat pour la dernière fois c'est sans issue pour moi
Une partie de moi s'envole avec toi

Comment faire pour aimer après toi comment se pardonner tout à la fois
Comment vivre l'enfer de ces journées sans toi
Comment faire après toi comment faire
Quand y'a plus rien à croire
Personne à décevoir
On reste là sans rien faire
Après toi

Et puis ce matin vide ce visage livide contre un mur invisible
Devenir insensible accepter l'impossible
Rien ne te remplace et sans laisser de trace toute une vie s'efface
Plus rien à la surface

Je n'ai rien retrouvé de la réalité le mur s'est écroulé
J'ai passé des années à croire que tu m'aimais
Des années d'insouciance comme une vrai romance
Et quand vient l'évidence la douleur est intense

Comment faire pour aimer après toi comment se pardonner tout à la fois
Comment vivre l'enfer de ces journées sans toi
Comment faire après toi comment faire
Quand y'a plus rien à croire
Personne à décevoir
On reste là sans rien faire
Après toi

"Astral Fractures", the third concept album by Siderunda, is a captivating fusion of retrowave, synthrock, and synthwave with darksynth influences. It tells the story of a cosmic journey through a universe on the brink of collapse, where powerful astral forces and vivid imagery shape an otherworldly narrative.
Siderunda’s ethereal voice guides listeners through this celestial odyssey, seamlessly blending with her masterful electronic soundscapes. The album explores themes of cosmic grandeur and decay, mirroring the fragility of existence.
Featuring notable collaborations with artists like Shirlinda (additional vocals), Dino Olivieri (arrangements), and Andxwaves (samples), "Astral Fractures" delivers an immersive experience that resonates both musically and emotionally. It’s a profound journey into the sublime, set against the backdrop of a fading universe.

Transcendent Fractures

ETERNITY'S BREATH

Beyond eternity look what we  've missed,
We are looking like clouds ridding the mist
We thought it was all over and there is no return,
And now we wonder how not to pretend.

The doors are opening and light shall glow,
Illusion desperate to give us a bow,
Reality syndrome is hoping relief,
And our solar heaven ignites with belief.

We were born free
We were born free
Lets dive to this world free
Lets dive to this world free

Freeborn - Freeborn.

ETERNITY'S BREATH - JAMMING ME AND BILL (Lyrics on Description)

written by Netta&McGill....................one of a few songs we recorded while Netta was here in  Brisbane................cheers for having a listen




The days came by then went away,
The timing never right
I looked around and then it passed
The day turned into night

Catching up with time and space
You don’t know what you’ll get
But i know whats not going on
Cos nothing’s happened yet

Reaching out to grasp the day
Then suddenly it’s night
Blink and you could miss it
As life just walks on by

I could’ve turned the other way
The feeling came so fast
Quickly went away again
Just wasn’t meant to last

It stopped me in my tracks
I didn’t know where to turn
Making the same mistake again
When will i ever learn

Reaching out to grasp the day
Then suddenly it’s night
Blink and you could miss it
As life just walks on by

The days came by then went away,
The timing never right
I looked around and then it passed
The day turned into night

It stopped me in my tracks
I didnt know where to turn
Making the same mistake again
When will i ever learn

Reaching out to grasp the day
Then suddenly it’s night
Blink and you could miss it
…
Reaching out to grasp the day
Then suddenly it’s night
Blink and you could miss it
As life just walks on by

Cast of Characters:
Joe Stroffolino-- @joseph-stroffolino -- Taylor 114ce acoustic guitar, main vocals, harmony vocals, lyrics, composition
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender HSS Telecaster electric guitar
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson Custom T electric guitar, mix, mastering, & production
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – piano
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –- four string Fender Precision Bass with a plectrum

This song began as one of Joe's catchy songs, originally written with all the instruments. He & SoundCloud musician Michele Ansani wrote the lyrics about becoming a musician. Joe offered this song to Josh who immediately shared it with the EC gang.
Ken went to work first, adding his driving, excting drums. Tez was up next with his clever fills you hear throughout the first half of the song. Stephen then matched Tez's energy with guitar fills in the second half of the song. Then Mark stepped up with his innovative piano solo, using an arpeggiator to get a kind of mechanical sound that matched the AI theme. Finally, one of our resident pros, Stephen, expertly mixed and mastered it. 
This is the first song we've ever done with Joe, & don't expect it to be the last. We all really enjoyed putting it together, in no small part because Joe is such a competent, receptive, & gracious collaborator. We all hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Lyrics by Michele Ansani & Joe Stroffolino
Music by Joe Stroffolino (@joseph-stroffolino)

When I was thirteen I picked up my first guitar
it was my mother's, it only had one nylon string 
I tried to play it like a rock star
I learned to play the Coca-Cola jingle
So I could teach the world to sing
When I was fourteen, I put on six new strings
I learned to play Beatles, I learned a Bob Dylan song
I sounded out of tune but I tried to carry on
At fifteen I wrote my first original tune 
So bad it sounded like it might have been written by a baboon
When I was sixteen, I got a new guitar for my birthday
The metal strings sawed through my fingers 
But I continued to play
And the calluses formed & every day I learned a brand new chord
I was obsessed with that guitar & I never grew bored.
I wrote songs every day & most of them were a mess
But I believed that through hard work, I could achieve success
Malcom Gladwell wrote a book that said it takes ten thousand hours
To become an expert at your craft
(“Chorus”)
But now all it takes is two commands & an enter
And in two minutes you have ten versions of the same damn new song,
You just have to choose the type
folk, rock, rap, pop, metal, jazz, trap or blues.
You don't even need to write the lyrics, 
your push a few buttons let the AI choose.
And people will think your songs are great even though you didn’t write or play a single note.
When I was 20, I did my first concert, it was time
it occurred in a village square
there were four cats all friends of mine
I was still using the plectrum & sometimes I got the chords wrong
at thirty I finally wrote what I thought was a decent song
It had a very well thought out structure
And a catchy vibe & beat
It was overly verbose but when I played it people tapped their feet
In my forties I stopped wasting my time
Work was more fun I was doing just fine
I had a steady paycheck that could feed me 
And the record companies didn’t need me
In my fifties once again my musical juices started flowing
I bought the necessary equipment 
I was eager to get going
I recorded all my strumming & saved it onto my PC
The internet & technology were advancing rapidly
I took those special songs I’d written of which I was most proud
Posted them Instagram, You Tube, Tik Tok & SoundCloud
I asked myself if a tree falls in the forest & no one’s around
Does it make a sound?
(repeat “Chorus”)

A really wonderful short piece from Gérald Olivieri. I just wrote down and sang a few simple words, and the result warms my heart. I guess I'm getting old and sentimental...

*** DOUCEMENT ***

S'il te plaît, 
reste encore un moment pour garder la tendresse.
Doucement, doucement…
Faut surtout pas bouger, faut rester embrassés.
Viens arrêter le temps.
Raconte-moi tes vingt ans, et nos rêves éveillés,
la maison, nos enfants, nos victoires éblouissantes, 
nos défaites partagées...
Vieillissons doucement.
Vieillissons doucement.
Ne pars pas. Ne pars pas…
Reste encore un moment…

Doucement (Based on Gérald Olivieri's "A Simple Melody")
