Lyrics: 
We‘re The Solution

We‘ve got to hurry
cause time is flying.
We‘ve got to worry
cause the planet is dying.

You may think 
you can leave us crying,
but we‘re trying
to change things up.

Be the solution
to all the pollution you see. 
Unfortunately, we‘re the problem too.
Both me and you.
So sad but true.

No plant B,
Lakes are drying out,
Millions of seabirds are dying out.
It makes me
wanna cry out loud,
We‘re going down!

It‘s up to us to rearrange.
All of Europe needs to mak a change.
Planet earth‘s no longer the same.
We‘re going down, down, down.

Be the solution
to all the pollution you see. 
Unfortunately, we‘re the problem too.
Both me and you.
So sad but true.

We‘re the solution!

We’re the solution
to all the pollution, but we,
unfortunately, we‘re the problem too.
Both me and you.
So sad but true.

We’re The Solution

"Conexión"

Esta es una colaboración con el gran artista y amigo LuisetozA de Venezuela, alma noble, si las hay, ya que, además de dedicarse a la Música, es colaborador de UNICEF, donde realiza una loable labor.

Originalmente, esta obra se publicó en inglés, "Connections", LuisetozA compuso la melodía y Rose Alaimo la letra, su compositor y yo la adaptamos en nuestro idioma.

Mi voz fue grabada por el genio de Ezequiel González Españón para Estudio Nómade, en Bell Ville, Córdoba.

Lyrics „New Isolation“



Isolation
Is killing me
There s no serenity
There s no more space to be

Frustration
Is thrilling me
The same insanity
There s no more space

Losing my senses
There ll be no defenses
I`m falling again on my knees
Looking from high above

It s the saddest part of me

Some days ago
My point of view has changed
Frustration s gone
My mind is re arranged

But there s no hope
To keep this state of mind
There ll be no space

Losing my senses 
There ll be no defenses
I`m falling again on my knees

Looking from high above

The saddest part 
Inside of me
Is killing me
Silently

The saddest part
Inside of me
Is killing me

So softly


The saddest part inside of me 
is killing me
is killing me

Re-posting a sketch we did with Jack 2 weeks ago:

Have plans to extend this with a solo guitar section .

Please also listen to Jack music here: https://soundcloud.com/harmonicajack

Rumbling And Tumbling (ft. Harmonica Jack)

:-)Guess what is my favorite movie?

@harmonicajack - harmonicas
Igor  - whistling!!! Composition, all the music, all the rest instruments, mix and production
Lee Lucas - @lee-lucas - idea to apply harmonica here

I invented the main riff and the chord progression in 1997.

The main idea is a duel between 2 guitars using 2 famous fuzz pedals: DoD FX32 Classic Fuzz (the best fuzz pedal ever) and Ibanez L.A. Metal (which also a fuzz and the worst fuzz ever according to HarmonyCentral.com reviews). As you can see L.A.Metal is not so bad :-)

The second idea is to demonstrate how banjo nicely lays over fuzzed guitar. That part was recorded a year ago and it seems this idea is becoming a trend on SC.

When the song https://soundcloud.com/project-managers-trio/fuzzy-logic-version-2 was released, too many good materials with Wild West flavor which really excite me: banjo, whistling and "surf"-like guitars were edited out.

So I remembered Lee's idea about harmonica and asked Jack for help. The key of C#m is not very convenient scale for a harp and Jack did a astonishing job nicely fitting to Spaghetti Western feel of the composition.


Fuzzy Logic: Wild West instrumental(with harmonica, banjo, whistling). Ft. Harmonica Jack

Heidi-Marie Arapa - https://soundcloud.com/heidi-marie-arapa - accordion, dobro chords and slide, and composition of respective parts
Igor M. -  original composition, all the rest instruments, overall mix , production and whistling ;-)

this thing unexpectedly has become an "on-demand" open collaboration project. 

Despite there already a whole bunch of instruments, Frau Heidi-Marie managed to put there 2 more and their parts fit perfectly well and she did it in 1 or 2 hours. For comparison, the whole song was evolving gradually for 15 years.

I would say that dobro chords in intro and coda ideally reflect that experiments Morricone did with a choir long time ago in the movie soundtracks.

I did my best to put this new material into my mix, so many similar sounding instruments will be distinguishable.

Previously released versions of this theme featuring vocals or harmonica:

So, thanks a lot to Heidi-Marie for this fantastic additions allowing to release a 3rd version. Please also visit her post of this song and comment her work on accordion and dobro there https://soundcloud.com/tosanetworkworldwide/fuzzy-logic-wild-west-2-ft-frau-heidi-marie-on-accordion-dobro


Fuzzy Logic, Wild West version 2(ft. frau Heidi-Marie - accordion and slide dobro)

Gave a try to open collaboartion invite https://soundcloud.com/megsmusicjourney/strings-improvisation-open-collab-invite

Original track by Megan McCarthy - strings
Guitar part by Igor M. - (no edit)
A bit of mixing/mastering by Igor M.

Many thanks to Megan for this wonderful lovely music.

For some reason I thought that I had to improvise too, so after one or two runs along the original track I recorded it. 

Hope I'm not much out of original tune, but at least it has culmination  :-)

And probably I will made another, "mature" take.

Here is a playlist of all the participants in this open collaboration:

I haven't listened to them before I made my record.

Fallen tears of μετάνοια (Strings Improvisation by Megan McCarthy, guitar improvisation by Igor M.)

This track has been possible thanks to the help of artists from USA/Russia/Germany/France on the base of a simple base track with leading ideas of giving tribute to French authors/composers Maxime Leforestier and Claude Nougaro's wonderful melodies (see links herebelow) supporting awareness on important issues at their time ...and nowadays still it seems .... Further melodic routes were found by all through musical interactions ... 
I feel I owe so much recognition to these great artists who understood my first musical ideas ...and pushed them to a height I would never had imagined :)

@kat330 for her singing (I love her idea of evoking native americans incantations)
@joerxworx whose sax is so soulful and who plays so well with other instruments (clarinet in particular which he understands and plays very well ;-)
@project-managers-trio : (Igor) for his amazing satrianesque/pagesque guitar solos 
@jules-keys-1 : for his amazing duduk play (armenian oboe)
https://soundcloud.com/johnbodi : for fantastic classic/jazzy colors added with the piano
Wonderful graphic image from : JT Lindroos


I'm the one behind all this, I play all other real (including rythmic guitar and my brother's old trumpet ! ..) or vst instruments ..; I  have been so happy to mix everyone's inputs

Born Somewhere (Né quelque part)- feat Kathleen, Igor, Jörg, John &  Julien

Megan McCarthy https://soundcloud.com/megsmusicjourney - original piano improvisation "Sadness" (Open Collaboration) == Thank you, Megan, for this wonderful melody!

Igor - orchestration, guitars, production, enhancing the piano sound.

In memory of 224 passengers and the crew of Metrojet Flight 9268 heading from Sharm el-Sheikh to Saint Petersburg and disintegrated by a bomb above the northern Sinai on 31 October 2015. Also in memory of recent Paris events and all the victims of recent "hybrid" wars.

I believe there is an evil power at work in the world deliberately overthrowing stable countries one after another and turning them into bloody chaos. And that chaos spreads over borders further and further. Lives of millions of people means nothing to those who make such schemes.

For a year and a half I have this feeling deep inside. On the surface I can smile, can live normal life, but I feel it. There is no hope for peace. Only grief.

Grief.There is no hope for peace. (Contemplation over Megan McCarthy's piano piece)

lyrics Οδυσσέας Ιωάννου

What do you think will when you leave?
What do you imagine you will find there you go?
Always back to the beginning will end up.
Always in the same water will quench your thirst.

Who do you think you will find to escape in?
What fire will be lit to keep you warm?
How many lies will save you from the lie,
if you do not have a truth to tell?

All your cards on the table,
and all options open,
Let the game to play you,
Do not hold your cards, hidden.

Where you dream to find what you're looking for?
On which beach do you think you will come out?
You fixed your boat from stones.
but a stone ship can't travel
