Composition and Sampling collage by Synline with computer.
”The song that is born today can only be born today.” That's why I keep writing it down like a diary.
Music is a kind of feeling I can not express in words. I will write that feelings with computer. 
I am glad I can share it with you.

IMMER AM HEULEN // Dunkle Deutsche Welle <3

Hello everyone,   I'm sorry, but I can't send any more follow up because my stock (1997 people) of my subscribed artists has been exceeded!                                                                                           
      I'm a self-taught amateur composer for the past fifteen years  in the genre Rock-Surf, Spanish Rock, Rock film-serial noir, neo classic etc...  my music is simple, and my guitar and bass sets are rather minimalist , recorded at home with a little pocket home studio "Micro BR" Roland, sometimes in collaboration for my last pieces with my son Rémi Carpentier at the synthetiser and logitiel FL studio.
My music has already been selected with Groover more than sixty times in Spotify playlists, or various web radio, blogs and media press articles, or for example obtained 104,600 streams on this platform in 2023.  Thank you for all your listening and comments.

Songs from the edge of somewhere. A place that doesn’t announce itself. You step in and can’t tell if you’ve walked into a protest, a party, or the end of something.

Conil’s music comes from the blues and from the life that followed it. A voice marked by the places it’s been.

People heard it early.
Danny Thompson said, “You don’t sound like anyone else.”
Tchad Blake still plays Strange Part of the Country.
Peter Green walked into the studio one afternoon and cut a track.

The record didn’t arrive with noise. It surfaced—four stars in Q Magazine, a Blues Matters cover, a single reaching number three on the U.S. Alternative Radio Chart.

The early years were England. Then came New Orleans, New York, Berlin, the Himalayas, Kilimanjaro.

The second album is close now. Marc Ribot on guitar. Danny Thompson’s final sessions. Tchad Blake in Wales.

Some things reveal themselves only at the end.

Greetings! We are Jonny Hummingbird and Shelley Meadowlark, an acoustic duo available for hire that just loves to share great songs for people. Our style is an odd mix of genres, and our song list ranges from timeless pop, to folk, country, bluegrass, gospel, and even a couple of 15th century numbers! We play live at a variety of venues, including restaurants, lounges, festivals, fundraisers, church functions, funerals, private parties, and the occasional private acousticism for those suffering persistent electric earworms. :-)
Seriously though, we are hobby musicians who just hope we can bring some joy to those who hear our music. Will be slowly adding songs to this page. Thank you for listening.
P.S.  Check out our website at the link below.  You can also hear some of  Jonny's original tracks at the link to his Soundcloud. Cheers!

Hi, my name is Jonas!

Hello Sound Clouders!
