swell delayed groove and swirling pads, loving the synth, vocs, and guitars.  Agree with t the Beatnik Coffee house vibe

deliciously mystical & tasteful sound & treatment.....cheers friend!

A deliciously dark bluesy fusion, sprinkled with gothic undertones which melt into its layers.  You are always so refreshingly unique.

I like your way of experimenting with rock! of a beautiful transparency ... I imagine the scenic dimension as well!

Cool, nice to tune into something that's very much it's own thing!

Creative and imaginative, mix of styles, admirable tracks/work !!! ❤️Love, 🕊️Peace, 🙏Respect

Alice Deeper Down

Couldn't fit in this experimental track with the current Alice Deeper repertoire so I bombarded this ADD profile to host a side project of the same name.
Although the track is a VST test mostly, hence I didn't take the time to craft a proper lead-in, and the ending is a bit sharp too.

Still, the subject is the apparent collapse of sanity and decency of the world's population, the institutions shaking on their foundations, a completely misguided revolt based on conspiracy nutballery fueled by social media algorithms that were designed simply to have more engagement with these media platforms, as that means more money - and if that means setting people up against one another, creating more and more division - whatever gets people talking, means people interacting with the social media, means more money. Good job. Civilization is on the verge of collapse as a result. Back to the time of Barbarian?


Am I being pessimistic?

PS. the vocals are NOT my voice. They are a speech synthesizer, one of the VSTs on test in this track.

Anyway, lyrics:

humanity's division feeds back upon itself
animosity forgets it's own undoing is required
dwell in victimhood and exclude for scarcity
it is perceived to be deception but foundations are in void

unrest control, spirit denied
utilitarianism arise
cognition in flames, dreadful desires,
materialism collapsed on all sides

The Looming Collapse

The switch turns on. It’s when I’m swimming, when I’m flying, when I’m stopped.
Turninng on the switch is the temptation of the deliciousness of the fish.

Put it in my beak. Don’t miss the target prey. When dive river, and I’m eating.
Even if it is hated, hated or annoying, no one can stop, no can stop, can’t stop my beak.

The king of the river, who reigns instead of the dragon, the Common Cormorant.
Black thunder lightning, electric shock, the black king is diving horribly beautiful.

An army marches on its stomach.
As you may know, universal traditions exist like water.
It’s okay for us all to be hungry.
Hard rainy Common Cormorant Waltz.
Hard rainy Common Cormorant Waltz.

Both black diamonds and Black pearls shine.
Just I’m in Dark side. The night creates the morning light.
An evil tongue is also a word of love, so let it flow down the Danube and forgive it.

Clear river water, the power of the Sewerage Treatment Plant.
Landscape, my city, residential , real wildness remains in the river’s ecosystem.
Pure white polka dots of asphalt, the black king is drawing from on electric wire.

Musique / Music performance : Christian Levitan 
Paroles et chant / Lyrics and vocal : Lukowig

Lyrics:
Le vent chauffe ma peau à blanc
ce temps me glace jusqu'aux flancs
je sens la trace de ses dents
sur mon visage : excédant !

J'ai les foix :
le froid d'hiver m'altère...
Quel effroi :
sang froid dans mes artères.

Pourquoi me bises-tu autant ?
De moi es-tu épris oh temps ?
Sur mes lèvres tu t'acharnes
tu les crèves les décharnes...

J'ai les foix :
le froid d'hiver m'altère...
Quel effroi :
sang froid dans mes artères.

Que de sang froid dans les doigts !
Fièvreux sans froid frileux sans toi
qui sait me réchauffer à blanc
qui claque des dents sur mon flanc...

Sang froid...

ead #10

I think we sometimes worry too much about what someone else may think and not enough about what we think is right. It's like being in a lecture afraid to raise your hand to ask a question because you are afraid others will laugh at you but come to find out everyone had the same question.Live your life your terms. just don't hurt anyone and respect others

lyrics
now that I'/ older and my sight is poor
I can see things I never saw before
now that I'm older and my hearing is poor I can hear all the things you've been telling me for years

I see the old men alone in the park
wishing they were younger and had a new start
I didn't realize until just now
that I am living their dream every time I wake up
but the dream's slipped into the shadows for me
it's slipped through my hands
time hides in the shadows and waits, disguised as forever 
until it's too late

you can't go back you can only regret
so take your best shot don't second guess
you can feel what is right and you know what is wrong
don't just write down the words you're thinking
stand up and sing the song out loud

don't worry about what others might say
at the end of it all it's your own judgement day

It's your call

lyrics below
_______________________________________________________________________

Born in Belarus in 86 yeah
Worked in construction back on the farm then
Dressed as a bishop she did deals in St Peters now she
Drives a Bugatti through the streets of Lausanne

It's not the money that's what she said
Don't want to end up with a hole in the head
We'll rule the world with the power of love
Oh do you think so coz
I don’t think so

We took an Uber to the conference centre she said
They’ll act like animals to get what they want
Blood on the dance floor but you get what you pay for when you
Hang with the cool kids at the policy disco

It's not the money that's what they said
No one looks good with a hole in the head
We'll rule the world with the power of love
Oh do you think so

I can't stay in bed for ever
My real life will never start
Complications don't want to know
Happy ending I don't think so

Hybrid warfare
Grand synthesis
Do the practice
Get dog biscuits
Keep it simple
Keep it stupid
Makes us feel good
We’re gonna use it

It's Not The Money (Wheelwright)(Fictive Sisters)


Tommy: bass
Scotty: guitars, lyrics, vocals

My shift has ended and I'm at home.
I've ascended and my mind is free to roam.
I've no direction. Pick up my phone
and call you up 'cause I'm so tired of bein' alone.
Girl, I need you here all the time.
I always have since the day you became mine.
With you I have no fears. You ease my mind.
And every time I think of you, you send shivers down my spine.
I'm in love.
With you, I'm happy 
and exactly in the place I need to be.
I was made for you and you for me.
Yeah...it's cliche, but, hey, at least the phrase is free.
Girl, I need you here all the time.
I always have since the day you became mine.
With you I have no fears. You ease my mind.
And every time I think of you, you send shivers down my spine.
I'm in love.
My shift has ended and I'm at home.
I've ascended and my mind is free to roam.
I've no direction. Pick up my phone
and call you up 'cause I'm so tired of bein' alone.
Please come home.

Shivers

I took this one down a little while ago to fix up the structure, and I think its internal balance is better now. Ultimately I think it will sit best as Part II of a three part larger track. Just need to write the other parts now!

Crazy Sad

Future Memories.

Dear friends - a little song about our little ones (in Swedish).
The melody has been approved by my lovely little granddaughter Greta!
Today, June 6, 2023, is a big day for Sweden. We are celebrating the 500th anniversary of our country in its current form. It feels good!
Approximate translation into English below:

What amuses Children

What amuses children
it is not easy to understand
but the reality is
that it is good when the children smile

To swing really high against the sky
so that the world changes
it can be upside down
and then the children laugh out loud

When the children feel bad
and when life feels so sad
then it sometimes helps
when grandpa reads them a fairy tale

In this modern age
there have been things that are fun
and which opens up our world
with pictures from a distant land

I know kids like animals
both small ones and those you can ride on
and when the children hug them
then both animals and children enjoy it

In Swedish:
Vad roar Barn

Vad är det som roar barn
det är inte lätt att förstå
men verkligheten är
att det är bra när barnen ler

Att gunga riktigt högt emot skyn
så att världen ändrar sig
den kan bli upp och ner
och då skrattar barnen högt

När barnen känner sig dåliga
och när livet känns så trist
då hjälper det ibland
när morfar läser en saga för dom

I denna moderna tid
det har kommit grejer som är kul
och som öppnar våran värld
med bilder från ett fjärran land

Jag vet att barn gillar djur
både små och dom man kan åka på
och när barnen kramar dom
då njuter både djur och barn

Vad roar Barn (What amuses Kids)(Lyrics in English below)

In the aftermath of Bri's death, me and my brother Gal had many conversations about ways in which we could celebrate his life, particularly in regard to his music.  His songs were the soundtrack to our life, pretty much uncelebrated outside of the family circle but as important to us as those that spawned lifelong careers for their creators in the big wide world existing outside the close-knit Reeves clan.
Through his membership at the mental health charity Core Arts, Gal became aware of SoundCloud.  In May 2012, he logged-in for the very first time and quickly  became utterly fascinated with the site.  Before long, he created a page called ‘Mountain Songs’, so named after Rocky Mountain, the alter-ego Bri had adopted during his late teenage years.
More in hope than expectation, Gal posted a few songs. Plays didn’t exactly flood-in at first, until Gal realised that to get, one had to give, so he set about finding artists whose music pushed all the right buttons. So began an obsession that would take him to unexpected horizons and which, in return, brought many to the Mountain Songs page. 
One who returned time after time was an Australian artist called ‘Chris O’, who left behind so many positive, encouraging comments.  At that stage he didn’t even know how to reply to these but Chris took the trouble to educate him in the finer points of SC etiquette and as time went on, a true music friendship was born.  When she was touring the UK, she even took the trouble to visit him on more than once occasion, virtual friends becoming in-the-flesh real.  
A few months ago, Chris sent Gal the most wonderful present.  Previously, Gal had sent her a link to a video he’d once made of cloud formations, which Chris seemed to enjoy very much.  Consequently, her gift was a wonderful video of clouds, seen from ground level and also from various aeroplane trips she'd taken over the years, accompanied by a stunning song called ‘Looking Up and Down’ which, to Gal’s amazement, she dedicated to him:   
https://youtu.be/3fHo4B1x_BY?si=3q2-8Vo_e3sJ10q9
Around the same time, Chris had left a comment under the Cripple Club song ‘My Atheist Angels’, lamenting that she had never found the love I had with Jo but in her usual way, expressing solace that she nonetheless had her “guitars, banjos and songs”.  This got me thinking that  maybe Chris had no idea how much and how widely she is herself loved.  And so started the germ of an idea for a song that would express my admiration for her talent and drive.  I know there are many among you who’d agree and hope I’ve managed to encapsulate that admiration in the track.  Many thanks for reading and listening.  (Terry Reeves)   

I met a brave woman by the name of Mrs O
Playing ‘The Blues’ flying high sometimes flying low
Guitars and Banjos pitching..always acoustic 
Singing and sharing a love affair with music

The Love Of Mrs O

No distance too far, mile by mile growing warm
Confidence of written word believing in art-form
Marriage strings and voice harmonising sounds
The love of freedom scales tightly in bounds 

The Love Of Mrs O

Concerts of brave, pulse to a time
Ensemble in waves, helping the climb
Brothers of blues, traveller of love
Live music choose, to fit like a glove

The Love Of Mrs O

Mrs O keeps soaring magnum opus in her hands
Song of friendship for a man from many bands
Expanse of cumulus clouds, filming for all to see
Never hiding from the challenge in the Nebulosity 

The Love Of Mrs O

Up and down across the world finding a closeness
No discrimination of any kind, love is always best
From ‘The Beatles’ land to a Sydney education 
Fondness for Mrs O, giving a continuous ovation

The Love Of Mrs O

A very long time ago, humans took nature's example on a large number of things with delicacy and respect, which was very beneficial to them.
Then as man's intelligence developed, he tried to do better than nature by respecting it as much as possible.
By trying to circumvent the laws of nature, she will turn against the one who outrageously hurts her because in everything there is a price to pay and here we are at dawn.

Il y a très longtemps, les humains prenaient avec délicatesse et respect, l'exemple de la nature sur un très grand nombre de choses, ce qui leur était très bénéfique.
Puis à mesure que l'intelligence de l'homme se développait, il essayait de faire mieux que la nature en la respectant autant que possible.
A force de chercher à contourner les lois de la nature, elle se retournera contre celui qui lui fait outrageusement mal car dans tout il y a un prix à payer et nous voici à l'aube.

THAT SOMEDAY YOU'LL FIND THE ONE FOR YOU

HERE SHE COME'S THERE SHE GOES

Here she come's there she goes

Project I-la-rI is a one-man experimental music project from Turku, Finland. The tunes are all original pieces composed by Ilari I. Rantala. The project began in 2015.

Hello my friends and welcome to my cloud! I play all the instruments in my music (unless noted otherwise in the song), sing, write the lyrics and deal with the aftermath myself. The tracks are recorded and produced with minimal equipment in my home, other places that are qualified as homes and in the field with a portable recorder. 

Enjoy the sounds!

The links below lead to the SC pages of the different bands I currently play in/contribute to. Check it out!

Welcome to the load-bearing wall of sound.

Music: No boundaries / Knows no boundaries. I don’t look anything like my profile photograph; I'm actually slightly shorter and a figment of my own delusions.

I’m also known as the wild man of transcendental meditation.

संगीत: कोई सीमा नहीं। / कोई सीमा नहीं जानता।. मैं अपनी प्रोफ़ाइल फ़ोटो की तरह कुछ भी नहीं देखता; मैं वास्तव में थोड़ा छोटा हूं।

Музыка: Без границ / не знает границ. Я совсем не похож на фотографию своего профиля; Я на самом деле немного короче.

الموسيقى: بلا حدود / لا تعرف حدود. لا أبدو مثل صورة ملفي الشخصي ؛ أنا في الواقع أقصر قليلاً.

音乐：无界限/无界限。我看上去不像我的个人资料照片；我实际上略矮一些。
