Time stopped in Santa Cruz.

===============================

I created this composition, like others, between 2014 and 2016.

I finished work and went with my iPad to create music.

The center of all this time was the neighborhood of Santa Cruz, in the center of Seville, my city.

Anyone who visits my city will inevitably pass by there.

Some of my favorite tapas places are there.

The terraces of some hotels have spectacular views from which you can enjoy the city while having a drink, a coffee, a wine, or whatever you prefer. I know them all.

The small squares full of tranquility, the murmur of water from some fountains, the sensation of feeling history as a pure essence! or the smell of orange blossom, which permeates everything around this time of year, make me enjoy something special that, in some way, I need. It's hard to explain, but that's how it is.

And there it seems that time stops.

Time Stopped In Santa Cruz ( Nv 2024)

Flipping Funkfest

From the album "Röckers" (2024)

Lyrics:
Strangers are the most interesting people that you'll meet
Yeah, it's not the closeness
But the distance
That make people reveal themselves to you
Strangers are the most interesting people that you'll meet

Sitting in an airplane seat
Next to my ticketed passengers
Maybe it was the tight seating that created a false sense of intimacy
Maybe she was just covering up the silence
She told how she had been sick as a child
And how she always secretly blamed her mother.
Maybe she had taken comfort in an anonymous and friendly face
I've always been told I have an anonymous and friendly face

Primordial ooze climbed from the sea
Marauding villagers freak
A curated killing spree
Birds of prey stick together 
And so should we

Strangers are the most interesting people that you'll meet
They will unburden themselves to a total stranger
All their lovers
The family secrets
Anthropologists say that human beings by nature  are a trusting species
It's our shared sense of community survival
Well, I've seen a change recently
Everybody suspicious of everybody else
What have we done?
To reverse thousand of years of human evolutionary behavior?

Primordial ooze climbed from the sea
Marauding villagers freak
A curated killing spree
Birds of prey stick together 
And so should we

Strangers are the most interesting people that you'll meet.

Strangers Are The Most Interesting People That You'll Meet

Lost Thought (Without You / Rolling The Dice)

I hear a sigh escape my lips so often now
its the sound of resignation
my revulsion at the threshold
cries of desperation yea...
its the sound of resignation
I am awakened by the groans
and protestations
and I find its issuance is me
yea
me and my special designations
beginning at my administrations
yea
why its the sound of resignation
come one come all...
to the tinkers' jail
do ya hear 'em wail
the victims of sorrows' infestation
yea
the sound of resignation
my revulsion at the threshold
cries of desperation
yea...its the sound of resignation...and
I hear a sigh escape my lips so often now
its the sound of resignation
my revulsion at the threshold
cries of desperation yea...
its the sound of resignation

At The Threshold

I REFUSE TO PLAY THE GAME

Yo, peaceful wanderers! 🌅⏳ Our 'Forgotten Civilizations' series finds a moment of quiet, contemplative grace.
Prepare for Song 5: 'Hourglass without Sand', presented by the breathtaking voice of John! This track is an ethereal sigh over silent temples and sun-bleached hieroglyphs. With a soft, gentle vocal, the song tells a story of peaceful dissolution: empires fading like a fleeting dream, a lost world slipping from our hands not with a crash, but with a whisper.
It's a beautiful, melancholic reflection on the solemn promise time has made—that no monument can stand forever. This song is about finding profound peace in the knowledge that everything returns to dust, leaving behind only a whispered name.
Embrace the quietude with 'Hourglass without Sand' in 'Forgotten Civilizations'!

Guten Morgen, friedliche Wanderer! 🌅⏳ Unsere 'Forgotten Civilizations'-Serie findet einen Moment stiller, nachdenklicher Anmut.
Macht euch bereit für Song 5: 'Hourglass without Sand', präsentiert von der atemberaubenden Stimme von John! Dieser Track ist ein ätherischer Seufzer über schweigenden Tempeln und sonnengebleichten Hieroglyphen. Mit einer weichen, sanften Stimme erzählt der Song eine Geschichte von friedlicher Auflösung: Imperien, die wie ein flüchtiger Traum verblassen, eine verlorene Welt, die uns nicht mit einem Knall, sondern mit einem Flüstern entgleitet.
Es ist eine wunderschöne, melancholische Reflexion über das feierliche Versprechen der Zeit – dass kein Monument ewig bestehen kann. Dieser Song handelt davon, einen tiefen Frieden in dem Wissen zu finden, dass alles zu Staub zurückkehrt und nur ein geflüsterter Name zurückbleibt.
Umfasst die Stille mit 'Hourglass without Sand' in 'Forgotten Civilizations'!

Hourglass without Sand

Soft


"Echoes of Abbey Road" - Where timeless classics meet contemporary soul.
Inspired by the legendary studio that birthed some of music's most iconic moments, this track captures the magic of Abbey Road's hallowed halls while carving out its own unique path. It's a sonic journey through decades of musical evolution, honoring the past while boldly stepping into the future.
From the moment the first note hits, you'll hear the reverence for the legends who walked these studio floors, mixed with a fresh perspective that could only come from today's generation. This isn't just another tribute - it's a conversation between eras, a bridge connecting what was to what could be.
The echoes you hear aren't just reverb from famous walls; they're the whispers of musical history calling out to anyone brave enough to listen and add their voice to the eternal song.

Echoes of Abbey Road

Just messing around learning, experimenting, playing and expressing myself. My little collection of demos, songs, experiments and instrumentals. I hope you enjoy them. I'm a guitarist / Vocalist / Producer and enjoy learning to express my moods, emotions, dreams and thoughts as I go.

Thank you all for the likes comments and reposts.

I have added a support link as I am struggling to keep up my subscriptions here currently and it would help me keep on creating and posting more songs. Thank you if you read this far lol.
