The first song I learned to play on the melodica as a kid.

Καλήν εσπέραν άρχοντες, αν είναι ορισμός σας, Χριστού την Θείαν γέννησιν, να πω στ' αρχοντικό σας.
Χριστός γεννάται σήμερον, εν Βηθλεέμ τη πόλη, οι ουρανοί αγάλλονται, χαίρει η φύσις όλη.
Εν τω σπηλαίω τίκτεται, εν φάτνη των αλόγων, ο βασιλεύς των ουρανών, και ποιητής των όλων.

Good morning, good people, and if you so desire, can tell you of Jesus’ Holy birth.
Christ is born this day in Bethlehem and the heavens and whole earth rejoice.
In a manger in a stable is born the King of the universe and Creator of the world.
And the multitude of the Heavenly Host is praising God and singing “Glory to God in the highest…”

Greek Christmas Carols - Κάλαντα Χριστουγέννων

Money for Charon.

Between 2016 and 2017 I composed some melodies inspired by Greek mythology.

Of all of them, only one remains on my blog here: Pegasus wings 

https://on.soundcloud.com/c7uzivsvy4BQzD536

I am encouraged to publish another one inspired by the ferryman who takes souls to the underworld after dying...paying a coin.

The figure of the protagonist himself makes the music somewhat dark, an effect achieved with a synthesizer from the DRC app that I have not used many times.

1 DRC track

Lyrics (by Stonerjazz):

We all chose it, we arrived here at this self-same place
he liked to think that he had earned it
but that simply not the case.
He just dreamed it up one sunday afternoon
while drowsing and lounging in the Ether
where the US resides
while living on a Proton Banished
to the outskirts of a single Atom
In a single Universe-
It was a wicked Curse, specifically designed for him
A scorcerer, Albert Rufus Smith
Stole a Rocket ship and he took it to Uriah
He was a rascal and scoundrel and a liar and a thief
But he had a magic knife that he had won in a game of dice
on a stormy night in a corner of some ruins
in the desert in december by the fire light with some other witches from Oaxaca
where he'd Spied Roberta picking magic mushrooms naked in the moonlight
with her brothers and her sisters and some others from the Bus-
It seems that Albert Rufus Smith Was Smitten

The eternal now is Wow
When we wonder why we wander
where we will
while walking walking walking to fulfill
the contemplated vacancy
Beyond the vast Horizen

Alberts knife was sliver with a handle made of Amber
when he held it high above his head
it gave off a blinding light
and on that night on the planet of Uriah
when Gus and all his jolly happy hopeful holograms arrived
on that Beat-up Bus
That formulated plan in Alberts wicked head
appeared to be on Track
had he not been messmerized by Roberta's perfect presence and physic
he might have pulled it off, that dirty rotten little sneak--

Sid and Larry caught him and his Cronies
trying to steal the bus and Abduct
Sally and Roberta too, Who
were sleeping on the bus in the back together as they always do,
And Gus was not Amused-
Albert seemed to be confused until he held his Magic knife up high
and blinded ever bodies eye
and in a frantic flight he escaped into the distant night--

LYRICS ..
check it out ....
kick it out ... 
can you handle the kill ?
is it making you pine ?
are we justified matter ?
are we falling behind ?
can you handle the difference ?
us and them soil 
two towers will topple 
for only one wall ..
..we are data 
we are lying 
we are danger 
er .. er .. er .. can you handle the kill ?
let's keep on pushing 
blindly ahead 
don't let it roll backwards 
keep it outa the red .. 
can you handle the difference ?
us and them soil 
two towers will topple (again and again)
for only one wall .

THE KILL (1) WEAR EAR GOGGLES :-)

An astronomer named Ted.
Was eating pizza alone in bed. 
He was obsessed with trying to find intelligent aliens
And he was tired of waiting for the interstellar phone to ring
And he was looking for a shortcut to the next big thing

As the pizza sauce ran down his chin
He flashed a great big messy grin
As it occurred to him that even aliens might enjoy human comfort food
And he was tired of waiting for the interstellar phone to ring
And he was looking for a shortcut to the next big thing

Like a sneaky dog who knows he’s being bad
He crept into the astronomy lab
And he placed a recording into the transmitter
Cause he was tired of waiting for the interstellar phone to ring
And he was looking for a shortcut to the next big thing

He set the signal to repeat again and again
Abd then he pushed the button that was labeled send
And message blasted out into the heavens
And then he went home and he climbed into to his bed
And this is what his message said

Come to our planet you really need to try. 
We’re begging you please you need to stop by.
We’ve got the best cheeseburgers in the milky way
So come on down and have one today
And if you’re still hungry we’ve got hot apple pie
You need to put this on your bucket list as something to eat before you die
So why don’t you beam yourself down and give it a try

In the morning he woke up to a shaking bed
And when he looked out his window the sky was red
From the fiery thrusters on the bottom of a flying saucer ship
And Ted realized that he was looking at the next big thing
There’d be no more waiting for the interstellar phone to ring

The flying saucer landed and strange aliens came out 
And a purple one with tentacles started to shout
He was pointing at what appeared to be his stomach
He said bring us some cheeseburgers and slices of apple pie
And it better taste good or your entire planet will die

But they enjoyed their food and asked for more
And then they left to fight a war
Against another planet that didn’t have any cheeseburgers.
And this is how first contact with aliens was made
And Ted was honored with a very big parade

And every single day more and more ships came 
And the reaction to the food was always the same.
Satisfied aliens of all shapes and sizes
And the earth became known as the cheeseburger planet.
And Ted married a sexy green alien named Janet.

Come to our planet you really need to try. 
We’re begging you please you need to stop by.
We’ve got the best cheeseburgers in the milky way
So come on down and have one today
And if you’re still hungry we’ve got hot apple pie
You need to put this on your bucket list as something to eat before you die
So why don’t you beam yourself down and give it a try

Cheeseburger Planet

I wake up this morning
Had a good nights sleep
Get ready for the day
With good energy
The phone rings
It is you
Want something from me..

You keep pushing my power button
You ain't nothing but a thief
Whenever I have some energy left
You suck it out of me
You never stop
You never give up
I'm almost empty, can't you see?

I have to hide my power button
So you won't find it again
Will not answer when you call
Won't call you friend
The only times you make contact
Is when you want something from me..

I will use the rest of me
On what makes me feel good
What gives me energy
And don't suck it out
So don't call me anymore
You get nothing from me..

You keep pushing my power button
You ain't nothing but a thief
Whenever I have some energy left
You suck it out of me
You never stop
You never give up
I'm almost empty , can't you see?

You keep pushing my power button
You ain't nothing but a thief
Whenever I have some energy left
You suck it out of me
You never stop
You never give up
I'm almost empty, can't you see?

Another really fun collab with the legendary @TexMex-Shaman!

I'll often sketch out music ideas and compose midi melodies on the ipad as a first step, but took a different approach and constructed this one entirely in Ableton Live which I have been transitioning more of my process to lately.

After building the foundation I sent it to Stephen and he added some suuuper creative guitar parts that really build the atmosphere and take it to a whole other level. Very happy how this came out, hope you'll enjoy it!

Another one done from the album Wou-Wou & the Wormling, Bitzone, Stricknice, and I have been working on for almost 5 years now! You can definitely hear some of those 2020 themes in these songs. I feel like the world is starting to change and new themes will start emerging, so we had better finish up soon, lol. There are definitely two more songs from the set still to be released, and maybe a bonus track, and then we will be done…It has been a dream to work with these guys! I wonder what's next?

May everyone who’s looking, find an incredible team of musicians to work with.

Lyrics

Yo, this is your daily routine rap
4:30 already and it’s time to hit snooze cause you know waking up is wack
5:30 already and I am looking for excuse to get right back in the sack  
Gotta brush the teeth and I can’t forget the gums everyday I’m fighting that plaque 
Heading downstairs I’m already on the run to eat breakfast and pack a snack
Next to get dressed I always put the layers on to keep warm yet still look like a mac
Then I’m out the door one hour past dawn to get to work without catching no slack

Wake up
Time to wake up

Yo, time to hit the routine again
3:30 already and I should be off the clock but my boss said I had to work late
4:30 already and I gotta bust out daycare can no longer wait 
Gotta hit the drive through and get the kid a snack it’s been 2 hours since she last ate
CDs in the player for an hour of tunes you know rush hour traffic don’t abate
When I get home I take the dog for a walk so he can find a pole to finally liberate 
Then it’s time to cook dinner got no time to work out so you know I’m gonna pack on that weight

Wake up
Time to wake up

Yo, we’re not done yet
8:30 already need to get the kid ready for bed but she  still wants to play
9:30 already and kid still isn’t ready now we’re yelling cause there’s no other way
I wanna keep my cool but I’ve had it up to here and I just want to get on with the day
Dishes keep pilling and the laundry needs drying and the mess needs to all be put away
Instead I check out, binge a show, and stay up late even though tomorrow I’ll have to pay  
Then I fall asleep on the couch just to do it all again it’s all just a big cliche. 

Wake up
Time to wake up

It’s time to wake the fuck up

Wake Up!
