This music really makes me feel it …in 2024! I hope you do too!

Feel it! 2024

No Angels Here To Guide

Inspired by a particularly emotional sequence during an episode of Rick & Morty, I took to my DAW to lay down my own version of the background music and took the liberty of adding 2+ minutes of vaporwave / dance track to the end.  My interpolation of the "Sad Rick BackStory" music. Only in my version, he finds and kills the s##t out of Evil Rick and Evil Morty. Enjoy....      

P.S. I would absolutely love to score a sci-fi space themed movie or animation project one day. If you're making one, hit me up. ;)

Jung believed that death is not the end, but a transition to a new state of being. He also thought that we can find meaning in life by exploring our unconscious and discovering our true self. I'm fascinated by his ideas that inspired me for this song.

A few weeks ago, Anna B May called for a remix competition to remix her song "In Another Life".

As you can see, my entry was unfortunately not among the winners. But I had a lot of fun and the words of appreciation from Anna, Kasique and lost.empathy were reward enough.

Feel free to watch the live contest with all the participants:

Coward feat Brad Mehldau

[Verse 1]
They spilled me out on a stage, a long, long time ago,
In the limelight, my brother laughed at me,
He said, "You can stay in this world alone,"
He closed the door, and since that day,
I haven't found my way home,
I haven't found my way out.

[Chorus]
I'm always kind, I'm polite,
But it doesn't seem to matter,
When no angel is here to guide,
Lost in the limelight,
From springtime to nighttime,
Everytime I try to climb,
I'm lost in spacetime, a crime of a lifetime.

Another version of the song can be found on the album "Cabaret", under the name "Trapped in Shadows [Cabaret]."

[Verse]
I wake up cold, the night still near,
A home that crumbles year by year.
Mama’s hands are rough, she can't let go,
Of dreams she lost a lifetime ago.

[Chorus]
Round and round, we push the weight,
Running faster, but it's too late.
Built to suffer, we can’t break free,
Lost inside this tragedy.

[Verse]
Crowds scream loud, but I can’t hear,
Their cheers are just a mask for fear.
We sing the songs they wanna feel,
But every note is less than real.

The lights are bright, they burn my skin,
But emptiness is all within.
Another show, another day,
I’m just a shadow on display.

[Chorus]
Round and round, we push the weight,
Running faster, but it's too late.
Built to suffer, we can’t break free,
Lost inside this tragedy.

[Bridge]
The world’s on fire, but we survive.
I wonder if we’re truly alive.
They say the world is ours to make,
But how much more can one heart take?

[verse]
My brother’s got hunger in his eyes,
But no one hears the quiet cries.
 
[Chorus]
Round and round, we push the weight,
Running faster, but it's too late.
Built to suffer, we can’t break free,
Lost inside this tragedy.

Just a Shadow on Display [Edit]

Note: In light of the recent AI breakthroughs, we feel it's important to clarify that we've been working with voice modulation since the mid-1990s – originally inspired by David Bowie's album Outside. Our approach predates AI-driven tools and is rooted in treating the voice as an instrument, shaped and sculpted through earlier technologies.

We fully understand that questioning authenticity may not be the intention – but it's worth remembering that all electronic music is, by nature, mediated and transformed. Even Nietzsche pointed out how modern tools shape us: inserting paper into a typewriter already creates a distance that handwriting does not. Perhaps birdsong is the only truly authentic sound. 🐦
