Thank You so much for over 1300 plays ♥️


🎄 Merry Christmas Everyone! 🎄

Why this title? In the area of ​​Poland where I live, there was a custom that Christmas Eve began when the first star appeared in the sky. So fasten your seat belts and I invite you on a melancholy journey back to childhood, when we were all waiting for that first star.

I hope You'll like it at least a bit.

This is a piece I composed in December 2022, but I didn't post it because I couldn't finish it in time. Now I finally finished it, and even improved it a bit, and here we are...
Thank you @grzegorzkawka for some advice and for being my "test driver" this time.

I've used:
DAW @ableton Live 11 Standard
The main heros of this track are @nativeinstruments Massive synth and @spitfireaudio BBC SO Discover with some additions of Originals: Epic Choir, Epic Strings and Media Toolkit - Piano.
Drum and Bass MIDI Loop: Chekov Kit groove 02_114 bpm from Ableton's Drum Essentials
and some percussive one shots samples.

The thumbnail photo was taken by me in Poznan at Plac Bernardynski.

Rust & Bones – Fetchflix TV Series – Mrs. Peacock

soundcloud.com/user-461764443/sets/rust-bones-new-tv-series-1

Miss. Peacock was a fantastic ballet dancer as well as a famous fashion model showing up on numerous magazine cover pages. Her ballet dancer career reached a peak when she performed Odette in the Swan Lake ballet by Pyotr Tchaikovsky and her fashion model career reached the top when she made the Decormag Cover Page in 1983. Twice upon a time during the performance of the Nutcracker by Sergey Prokofiev, Dick Boneman simply cracked for her and asked for her hand. He took both hands for a tango and got married with her. Later during a ballet performance Mrs. Peacock fell on the floor and badly broke her ego. After that pathetic event the White Swan wasn’t white anymore and her persistent dark mindset made Dick Boneman to divorce her. A year after the divorce and in order to earn enough money for her costly life style she became “Mistress Black Swan”, some kind of a sexy fetish influencer wearing latex and presenting herself in a very provocative way on Pornhub.  She was eventually able to invest a huge amount of money in Boneman & Sacks Relic Asset Management Inc. that now worth nothing after Mr. Boneman fraud declaration press release. Mrs. Peacock mindset is thus deep dark and she is now a suspect for the murder of Mr. Boneman.

I'm having some Halloween fun with a Screaming Jay Hawkins type song. Theremin included free of charge.

Lyrics:
Oh Caroline
I don't give a damn about your star sign
Caroline
I don't know nothing about those love lines
On your hand
That palm reader 
She put it in doubt!
That same hand you used
To lock me out
You say: Venus is rising
In retrograde
With Mercury
Little Miss Superstition, you know that I must disagree

Everything has been going wrong
Since you told me
Our star signs they're not aligned
That sun is beating down on my house
(It's a Son House!)  😉 
Even when I'm inside
I was at the airport
When my ship, it finally came in
I'm drinking in a rusty bucket
Home-made gin
You say:
Venus is rising
In retrograde
With Mercury
Little Miss Superstition, you know I disagree
Ewwww!
( Because you're mine!")

Caroline
You know it's true
I'll win you back
With those
Cut rate
Reprobate
Back alley
Black magic blues
(Because you're mine?)

You said:
Venus was rising
In retrograde
With Mercury
Little Miss Superstition
Won't you please break the spell that you cast upon me?

Miss Superstition

Last track from Mediterrâneo, a somewhat happy ending.

E estranho vir festejar já quantas vezes demos a volta ao Sol,
porque afinal o Sol não é coisa parada.
Orbita a galáxia, e segue essa estrada de estrelas no céu
que nos encantam enquanto brilham na imensidão.
E todos os filhos que juntámos neste dia
de onde vieram, para onde vão?
E as velas felizes, que num sopro se extinguiram,
cantam nossa gratidão.

Skylines
Release Date: February 12, 2016
© 2016 Keith Richie

Skylines is a cinematic electronic journey that explores the architecture of sound through a global lens—an immersive album inspired by the skylines of iconic cities around the world.

Blending elements of electronic rock, synthwave, and dark synthpop, composer Keith Richie crafts an atmospheric tribute to nine cities—each track echoing the energy, emotion, and identity of its urban muse. From the rainy pulse of “Seattle Walk” to the neon-tinted melancholy of “Goodbye Dubai” and the chaotic haze of “Lost in Beijing,” Skylines invites listeners to travel without moving.

This isn’t just a sonic travelogue—it’s a fusion of geography and emotion. Each composition evokes the sensation of standing beneath towering structures, feeling the movement of life around you, and absorbing the invisible rhythm of the city itself.

The album features exclusive versions of fan-favorite singles including “Seattle Walk,” “Lost in Beijing,” and “Goodbye Dubai,” all reimagined as part of a cohesive global experience.

Whether you're drawn to lush synthesizer textures or inspired by the spirit of travel, Skylines offers a powerful soundscape that stretches across continents—and deep into the imagination.

I do not support the use of generative AI in music creation. I will not support people who use such technologies nor will I use them. The two songs I posted only serve to raise awareness of the existence of such technologies and as a warning.

At the beginning I would like to sincerely apologize that I am responding to comments late and I am sometimes unable to keep up with listening to your work, but I still work full-time in a profession that has absolutely nothing to do with music and I have my duties towards family and home.

To everyone who flew into my corner on SoundCloud: I am grateful for your support with likes, shares and thank you for the great comments. Please don't hesitate to suggest changes to my music in them. Thanks to this, the next songs will be better and better.

All my music is MIDI (except some drum loops), played/created by me and edited in Ableton Live.

Born in 1970. Music fan since 1985. Now heaving fun with making music. I'm self-taught, playing everything by ear. Started in 1990's but due to certain circumstances left in 1998 until April 2022. My music is created in Ableton Live 11 Intro (until december 2022) and 11 Standard with mostly free plug-ins. Fan of soundtracks (my personal heros are John Williams, Clint Mansell, Philip Glass, Thomas Newman, Hybrid, Hans Zimmer and much more), world music (Dead Can Dance), chillout (Bent, Zero7, Groove Armada, St. Germain, Air, Röyksopp, Kosheen and more), trip-hop (Massive Attack, Portishead), acid jazz (Us 3), fusion (Pat Metheny Group, Dirty Loops), progressive rock (Porcupine Tree), classical (Tchaikovsky, Mozart, Debussy, Orff, Mussorgsky) electronica (Imogen Heap), IDM/House (Moderat, Apparat, Plaid) and electronic music (Vangelis, Kraftwerk, Isao Tomita, Marek Biliński, J.J. Jarre).

Still learning how to produce music.
