Sensual Beats

...or keep the lights on....

Getting back to the essence of what I like; a funky, sexy and elegant interaction between keys, bass & drums with some lazy sensuous sounds floating above - definitely suitable for passion. Enjoy!

Red Paris 3 a.m. (Bennborn/Kosmee Project)

Magic occurs when souls meet across distances and connect.
Bonds arise and the line between virtual and real gets blurred.
Noemie, Michel, Daniele & Manuel - we are magic.

Break your chains, or keep them on!

No, this is not a tribute to "50 Shades of Gray", but feel free to relate to the lyrics of this slow burning funk of sizzling guitar riffs, intense slap bass and sultry vocals!

Lyrics: 

I’ll wait till the sun is high
And I’ll say those words you hide
No
Ho… Hey you
Oh… I’ll save you
I’m just here
I’m here to heal
I may be or not the same
I’ll wait till love releases our shackles and chains
I know we’re innocent but as it seems it’s the way
All I’ve ever thought is that you’d be yeah that you’d be
Far too weak, just off your freaking mind
Oh when my heart is fantasy
You’re the one for me for such a suave Art
Oh when your love is fantasy
Tie me up tie me up tie me yeah

And I’ll make love to your heart
No
Ho… Hey you
Oh… I’ll save you
Might sustain endeavour to release your icy chains
Oh just stay up night and day
You’d better stay (un)til blown away
I’ll wait till love release our shackles and chains
I know we’re innocent but as it seems it’s the way
All I’ve ever thought is that you’d be yeah that you’d be
Far too weak, just off your freaking mind
Oh when my heart is fantasy
You’re the one for me for such a suave Art
I’ll wait till love releases our shackles and chains
I know we’re innocent but as it seems it’s the way

Shackles & Chains (Bennborn/Kosmee ft. Daniele Turani & Manuel Muzzu)

For me the sound of "West Coast" is a celebration of life; of joy and passion. It makes you look good, behind those sunglasses, driving your convertible in the setting sun, from L.A. to San Francisco on Highway 1 ;-)! 

Delusions of grandeur aside, I feel that my musical companions and I have reached yet another level of meshing our sounds and styles together effortlessly into the flow of music. Thus I am really proud to present "Solitude in Motion" to you all. Enjoy ;-)!

Solitude in Motion (ft. Derek Cornett, Joe Drzewiecki, Manuel Muzzu & Walter Kelleher)

Feel the passion!

A Swede inspired by Electrotango from Paris and Rio de La Plata, collaborating with musicians from Dubai and Canada equals World music in a contemporary tango style, expressing passion in love and life. 

This part of our world, this "corner of music", is beautiful indeed; unifying people globally in a common passion and vision, regardless of race, age, gender, politics or religion. Small steps through internet interaction in all domains that over time might break down barriers and further understanding on a larger scale.

Flight Of Fancy (ft. Moody Mo, Charlotte & Michel Martineau)

"Keep on, don’t look back, hold on to this love..."

First, long awaited collaboration with Vocalatti, and her sultry vocals - a great performance indeed, but also a tribute to her very poignant lyrics - take them in.

Then, Derek Cornett a.k.a "Larry Carlton/Earl Klugh/George Benson" (your choice) delivers the smoothest, laid back guitar imaginable.

Magnus, you're zooming in on the appropriate sentiment with aplomb, your EWI always a pleasure to listen to.

And then our own "Paulinho da Costa", multi-talented MoodyMo adding the final layer on the cake with his subtle and stylish percussion.

From vision to fruition, thanks to the ever-awesome collaborators from all over the world; as always no boundaries in the world of music.

I thank you all.

Lyrics:

Is it time for us
To take just what we had
And walk away just as friends
It seems to me that every time
That we said goodbye
All that sadness in your eyes

Fate can be so cruel
When others break the rules
No one gets another chance
I find it hard to think that
You're never coming back
All is wasted what we had

Chorus

Keep on
Don’t look back
Hold on to this love
That we already had and
Try to start again
Let this love begin
And never let it end

Looking back to when
Our feelings had to end
Was the last thing on my mind
I wanted to always stay here
So you and I
Could find peace within our lives

Nothing stays the same
Two people are to blame
For changing other people’s lives
If I knew how
I would have stayed in that fairytale
Feeling free and so alive

Chorus

Move on start a new
You’ll forget these things
That life has put us through
And try to love again
You'll remember that
You and I were friends

Keep On (ft. Vocalatti, Derek Cornett, Magnus Jansson & MoodyMo)

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...
