Your lead sound reminds me on Robert Fripp

This rocks, Dan, also nice development of the melody ...

Sounds like a triumphant march...Excellent drums and guitar combination

Yeah, it is definitely some Hoodoo Bokuu going on here :)

I love the progressive construction of the piece! good job!

Blue is the new...

Feel free to check out the youtube video - it has blue on it :)

A string remaster / redo of Bright Autumn

Forever Springtime

Originally the title was Epicurus. Then I put it in the drawer for a while and now I took it out again. After 
I reworked the song, it was supposed to be called "Vernissage des Epikur". After I was allowed to participate in a vernissage two weeks ago, I shortened the title. I think the song reflects very well what I was allowed to experience as a photographer on the evening of the vernissage.

Ursprünglich hieß der Titel Epikur. Dann hab ich ihn eine weile in die Schublade gesteckt und jetzt wieder rausgeholt. Nach dem ich den Song überarbeitet hatte, sollte er zunächst "Vernissage des Epikur" heissen. Nachdem ich vor zwei Wochen selber an einer Vernissage teilnehmen durfte, habe ich den Titel gekürzt. Ich finde der Song spiegelt sehr gut wieder was ich als Fotograf am Abend der Vernissage erleben durfte.

Vernissage

Campers  

My parents were campers, we wandered around
We washed in the river and slept on the ground
With a kerosine lantern to see by at night 
And aluminum cups full of Crystal Delight

They’re all gone forever after only awhile
To me it was not about nothing
It was more than a signature style

I gave him a hundred, which was all that I got
I fired her up and I drove off the lot
She was painted by hand, but tipping the scales
Was a sticker that showed my concern for the whales

She’s all gone forever after only awhile
To me she was not about nothing
She was more than a signature style

My mind is in order my soul is inspired
In robe and in sandals I’m simply attired
And I live in this place with these brothers of mine
Where we think, and we pray, and we fast all the time

Till we’re all gone forever after only awhile
To me it is not about nothing
It’s more than a signature style

Campers

A tune from the WAG guys, reflecting the idea that love is, perhaps, the distillation and essence of what humanity is all about, Christmas, or other. Love finds a way, always. Let's not give up. Regardless of your traditions and cultural expressions of religious beliefs, love makes it all possible...if we want/will it.

Lyrics:

Everlasting

The greater the suffering … the greater the peace
The longer you have to wait … the greater the weight

Love everlasting …

I see the blood of roses … out in the fields
Love everlasting

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Voulez…voulez…voulez…voulez…away

Love everlasting …

Voulez…voulez…voulez…voulez…away

All you need is the imagination to believe.

Foggy Weather

Traduit plus bas
----
Lost in the wild, like the other souls, I've endlessly searched for you.
Are we born to be alone or is happiness only made for two

Like two sides of a coin, we belong
To each other we'll be strong
Somewhere in the crowd 
we finally found each other through the storm

From birth to death, everyone in this world, shares a cruel fate 
We feel incomplete, until we find out, somewhere there's our soul mate

So we belong
To each other to be strong
Somewhere in the crowd 
we finally found each other through the storm

You're my miracle  
One chance, one chance, one in a million
You're my miracle  
One chance, one chance, one in a million
You're the one 

So we belong 
To each other to be strong
Where have you been?
When i was searching all the  years
Alone, in between
My melancholy and my fears

You're a miracle  
You're my miracle 

----

Perdu dans la nature, comme les autres âmes, je t'ai cherché sans cesse
Sommes-nous nés pour être seuls ou le bonheur est-il seulement fait pour deux ?

Comme les deux faces d'une pièce, nous nous appartenons
L'un pour l'autre, nous serons forts
Quelque part dans la foule 
nous nous sommes finalement trouvés à travers la tempête

De la naissance à la mort, tout le monde dans ce monde partage un destin cruel
Nous nous sentons incomplets, jusqu'à ce que nous découvrions, quelque part, l'âme soeur

Ainsi nous appartenons l'un à l'autre pour être fort
Quelque part dans la foule nous nous sommes finalement trouvés à travers la tempête

Tu es mon miracle  
Une chance, une chance, une sur un million
Tu es mon miracle 
Une chance, une chance, une sur un million
Tu es la seule

Ainsi nous appartenons l'un à l'autre pour être fort
Où étais-tu quand je cherchais toutes ces années
Seul, entre ma mélancolie et mes peurs

Tu es un miracle  
Tu es mon miracle

My Miracle

Retorn Of Calafate Version Berlin School - Part 5

This song started as a jam session between me and Nahlej creating a nu metal sound by mixing hip hop, alternative with metal. Simon added further guitar licks and a solo. Our working title "Heavy Jam" inspired StevieJ to rap lyrics about drug abuse due to low self esteem and mental health issues. All thoughts running through the narrator's mind mind created a sticky heavy jam. Instead of tackling the issues, he prefers to numb the pain with meds and weed. This doesn't solve any problems, so better not try! 
Starting with a guitar theme, I could never have guessed the heaviness of the instrumental and lyrics both. Thanks for your collab, I am very pleased with the result!

The artwork has been generated with DALL E 2, but I invested some work cleaning it up and adding details with a graphics tablet.

Nahlej: composition, guitar, bass, drum programming

==== LYRICS ====

I'm not ready for the world today
Already going through hell today
So anyone who tries to talk to me
They'll be hell to pay

I got a mental list of all the shit 
I'm dealing with
I know I'm not the only one 
who'll be feeling this nah

I don't need politics 
adding to the stress
Finished school time ago
so why another test

Trying to focus on me just being the best 
but I can't 
when there's so much
shit running through my head

Numbing meds so I don't feel the pain
Even little miss sunshine 
couldn't stop the rain

Ain’t lifting the finger, nah
Not today, so get away from me
seems you got a lot to say
and I forgot to say

I'm staying in one place 
all it takes 
is one look at my face

I'm not playing,
There’s nothing you can do
to change that
So just stay back

and accept that that's who I am
Staying in bed with a head like
Like heavy jam

Yeah, heavy jam
I’m in bed with a head like
Like heavy jam

The doctor's prescription 
just ain't enough for me
I need some king size Rizla
and some Godfather OG

Yeah, now I can say that my life
is so sweet
Just one thing missing,
that one thing's me

I'm existing 
but I'm not living
I'm resisting 
cause I'm not giving

Anything away 
about the state of my brain 
I'm just saying 
you can't take it away

Like all good artists
I'll just harness the pain
and create a set of lyrics
that make people say
Man, I feel the same way

I'm sure I'll smoke my way through this
Always the optimist, 
advice from the doctor is 
at some point you're gonna
have to put a stop to this

Will I listen? 
Nah that's not who I am
It's just another day in bed
with a head like heavy jam

Heavy Jam
Heavy Jam
I’m in bed with a head like
In bed with a head like
Heavy jam

I'm not ready for the world today
Already going through hell today
I'm not ready for the world today
Already going through hell today

So anyone who tries to talk to me
They'll be hell to pay

Heavy Jam

This is a song I was working on when my niece asked me for a song.  This song was nearly ready.  So I asked her for a name.  She chose Hoodoo Bokuu.
