Effortlessly beautiful! Can hear the emotion in your playing too, which just adds such depth to the piece ❤️ can’t fault this!

lovely! The voice fits the piano so well!

Gentle, beautiful and free!!! This is a lovely work Przemek!

Great piano playing, beautiful…!!🌍☮︎👍🐞🍀

Well, my good friend Paco dropped me a note to say he had a piece of music to which I might like to try and add something, were I so inclined.  Always a good day when that happens.

Now, I can't honestly recall the precise sequence in which the neurons fired inside my skull to yield the result we have here, but we are where we are as they say.

Don't go looking at me for rationale.

Thank you, Paco, as always my friend, for inviting me to come out to play, and for mastering the end result in the midst of untold techno-horror grief.  I hope your DAW world resolves itself very soon.

Socrates at Sundown

I lie bewildered, here, in my sphere of cubes,
On crushed silk cushions sprawled.
I sketch the cool Palladian dudes
In charcoal, on Aleutian walls.
They think I know what thoughts are theirs,
And beg to trade their graceless airs, 
But I left them there to climb their stairs
Ever downward through Athenian halls.

They say my knowledge is remiss,
The diabolical's back in town.
Seems ignorance is bliss
For this philosophical clown.
I'm seeking emptiness of mind,
That's where I hope to find
That old, old friend of mine,
Socrates, at sundown.

My associate, Plato knows the game
Survives through pretty dialogue
He suffocates but bestows his shame
On city states whose statutes fog
The heads of people in their ranks
Attentive on the Eridanos banks
Dispensing death by way of thanks
As justice shreds its cogs.

Deep mental grasp of social structure
No need to ever write it down
Accused outcast for youth's corrupture
Where the bleeding of democracy is bound
To seek the causal end of time
Of Aristotle and Nietzsche's kind
The men of Athens rendered blind
Killed that old, old friend of mine,
Socrates, at sundown.

La Primavera - with Francesco Cartocci

An instrumental tribute to my favourite three piece rock band.
Formed in 1968, they were at the top of their game as musicians and songwriters and had a massive following across the globe. Currently they are ranked fifth in the U.S. for the most consecutive gold or platinum studio album sales by a rock band, only behind The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Kiss and Aerosmith.
I had the pleasure of seeing them play live many times during their lengthy career and it always amazed me how three guys could make such an amazing sound. They finally called it a day with the sad passing of their drummer in 2020. The song title is a reference to the place where they were formed and to the lyrics of one of their early songs, but who were they?

Three Travellers of Willowdale

A miniature piano piece based on improvisation. In the distance a melody by ethereal, atmospheric voices, with very subtle synthesizer pads in the background. Enjoy listening :)

TOKYO - ΤΟΚΙΟ

First off i have to say a big Big thank you to my Son Rob for his great idea about the Pick up truck. Thanks Rob :-)  It really has added a new dimension to this little ole country tune . This is a real real " Pick me up Song " :-) The song is a  follow on song to "The Road" & " Ordinary guy. A song of Hope & friendship with a little sprinkling of Spirituality thrown in.  We all need someone to help us when we are down or Lost and in this song the " Pick up truck " symbolizes a friend or a spiritual belief. Something that we can relay on to help us through  the bad times. Just like an old pick up trunk sturdy & Reliable & Always goes the distance. 

 Hope you like it. 

Written, performed & Produced by: Johnny Mc Farlane
Thanks to my Friend Finn Eces for helping me arrange this one.

Country Pick Up Truck

A little smooth jazz in the style of Peter White, but your comments have revealed something deeper; a fragility and vulnerability in the music and the playing. 
To love anyone, even a pet, is to make oneself vulnerable, and in any love relationship, how fragile our feelings can become.  This is dedicated to all who choose to make themselves vulnerable by choosing to love.

Intimate Interlude

The word nautilus is derived from the Greek word nautilos "sailor". The chambered or pearly nautilus is a mysterious and rare creature known for its patterned and precise spiral.  A testament to the creativity of God.
Thank you to David Dunham for mastering my track!

Soundscape Where I Live 3 - 20240623 / home demo

First of all, thank you for listening and supporting me on Soundcloud!

I work as a visual effects artist. In my free time, I write music, play the piano and guitar, and create experimental films :)

I enjoy the world of illustrative music, acoustic instruments, and analog sounds. A long time ago, I studied music. After that, I took many years break. Currently, I'm gradually returning to music, but time, I have no idea why, is always limited....
