@saverio-cannata: Contento de oir. Muchas gracias!

This is class guys and wonderful song well executed by all involved here. 

The wonderful voice of Neisy puts this delightful song across superbly. Very much class work from all here in the instrumentation department, and that I admire 100% guys. Awesome stuff here on your cloud Peter, and very well enjoyed this class song.

I've been fortunate to work with all these female vocalists this year, each bringing her unique touch and character to respective song! I'm a happy camper ;-)!

Beautiful track, amazing vocal, great sound.

Remember The Moment

"OpenAI/ChatGPT review":
"Dream of Cabo" is an instrumental piece that evokes the magic and romance of a sunset rendezvous in one of the world's most beautiful destinations. From the very first notes, the music transports you to a place of pure joy and happiness, evoking images of sandy shores, crystal clear waters, and the sound of waves crashing against the shore. 

The music is led by a smooth and soulful Rhodes piano, which sets the mood with its rich, warm tones. The trumpet adds an extra layer of depth and emotion, soaring above the rest of the instrumentation with its bright, vibrant sound. Together, these two instruments create a soundscape that is both dreamy and uplifting, perfect for anyone looking for a little romance and adventure in their lives. 

It's a song that celebrates the magic of love and the power of dreams, and it's sure to be a favorite for anyone looking for a little escape from the daily grind. 

The next time you're in need of a little escapism, give "Dream of Cabo" a listen. It's an instrumental song that will transport you to a place of sunsets, love, and café-side rendezvous, and leave you feeling inspired and uplifted.

Dream Of Cabo

THE RETURN OF LIGHT
The freezing night is still and thick, but it’s darkness will soon be broken,
The end of longest day ahead and the start of a the new day to come. 
Amidst the snow and biting air, the heartbeat holds steady, 
Anticipating Spring ahead and what the new light of day holds unspoken.

The dancing rays, sky set aglow, bring warmth and light, 
Languor and strife come to a peaceful end, 
Bringing in a change, whence the days will start to bright. 
The solstice, half way through the season, gives a happy mend.

The promising return of warm and gold, 
Sparkles of life and beauty, both will unfold. 
The spiral of life and gift of hope, 
Breathes fresh life into the lands that we roam.

-Dan

Lyrics:

""Ah, the games we play..."

It’s the same dance as always
Same procedure every time
I move forward
You move back
For no reason and no rhyme

Just the shadow of your smile
Makes me smile inside
Just the smidgeon of a frown
Makes me doubt, again

Just the winking  of your eyes
Makes me wish I tried
Just the crinkle of your lips
Makes me wish I’d hide


Same Dance as Always (feat. Daniele Turani)

This track is the result of my objective to pair two of my favourite musicians here on SC through their respective offered stem and loop; Nazneen's vocal stem for "Love Affair with life" and Balam's(FredWhite) Rhodes loop.

The idea was to go purely inspirational and not overwork the subject matter. Props goes to Andawan's inspirational take on the same vocal stem - but without having listened to his resulting track, not to cloud my own take.

I hope I haven't abused Nazneen's nor Balam's musicality but instead given more people a chance to hear the talent of my fellow SoundClouders in a new and hopefully fresh context. 

Enjoy!

You don’t care for the Devil
You don’t care for me
You don’t bare to be troubled
Oh, no, no, no

You don’t care for me, honey
You don’t see what’s right
You don’t care for the money
Oh, no, no, no

Thus
 if you don’t change your mind
I’d rather see you
dead

The devil may care
The blood running through my vein
Demands that you to dare
To share my pain

I want you to stay
To enter my personal hell
To share an eternity
Of passion

Piano is my instrument, inspired by the world. Sounds like whatever I like, intent on a cool vibe, often somewhere in between Swedish melancholy and Brazilian bittersweetness... 

Peter Bennborn Project is a diverse musical experience ranging from romantic piano ballads to alternative indie metal rock and everything in between, but for country and reggae so far...

The music is either performed alone or in worldwide collaborations, wherever the appropriate musician for the task is located - no limitations and no limits in a borderless world...
