OPEN DOORS

You don’t have to look
You don’t have to hide
You don’t have to sneak
You just walk on through
More than a little bit
More than a little bit

Hold your head high
Hold, see them eye to eye
Hold, so easy to try
So easy to try
You’re gonna get by

Walk on through
Open doors
Walk on through
Open doors
Walk on through
Open doors
Walk on through
Open doors

Hold

You don’t have to shout
You don’t have to run
Be afraid
Just walk on through
Step through another
Step through another

Hold your heart high
Hold, don’t ask why
Hold, no need to be shy
You’re gonna get by

Hold

Walk on through

EMU
Music by Overdrive
Lyrics by TN2

EMU stands for "emulator" in Information Technology. The track is inspired by the cyberpunk culture of Japanese anime/manga, especially the classics Akira and Ghost in the Shell.

The idea was completely insane -- to produce an industrial/cyberpunk track sung in Japanese by a female vocalist with a very soft voice (to contrast with the dark atmosphere). The first time I verbalized this concept with someone, it sounded even weirder. So it's no surprise that none of the numerous Japanese female singers I invited accepted the proposal.

It's true that Japan is known for its innovative musical ideas -- like the death metal band Baby (with three little girls as singers); or the virtual singer Hatsune Miku (a hologram with synthesized vocals) and so on. But industrial music with female vocals is not a common occurrence. Björk and How To Destroy Angels are some of the few exceptions in the music world. And without a Japanese singer, the EMU project would never get off the ground.

Fortunately, Dreamtonics' artificial intelligence synthesized voices and its amazing Synthesizer V software are getting better and better, and I was able to use the sweet voice of Mai, a synthetic voice package created for J-pop (!).

This work wouldn't have been possible without the invaluable help of TN2 (Toku-no-2ri), group that wrote the lyrics in Japanese. Their extraordinary sense of musicality in the choice of phonemes during the creation of the lyrics proved to be a very pleasant surprise. Japanese kanji are famous for their ability to embed multiple meanings in their symbols and the first draft of TN2's lyrics was written in kanji (later rewritten in hiragana to feed Synthesizer V). The apparently simple verses carry several meanings that are unfortunately lost in the English translation.

TN2, or "Toku-no-2ri", is a psychedelic trance unit of "MASH" and "NORI". They had been inactive for a few years, but restarted the project in 2021. The group has formidable composers and I recommend checking out their incredible electronic music tracks available for free download on SC:

Hope you enjoy the track.

LYRICS

ささやきにしげきされ
しょうどおがかけめぐる
やみにうもれたひびに
ひのひかりときはなて

だれもがゆめをみてる
さめることのないゆめ
とわにとらわれている
とわにとらわれている

[Ghost in the Shell narration]

すべてがまぼろしでも
あなたのねがいはなに
とわにとらわれること
それともめざめること

だからおしえてほしい
わたしがだれであるか
あなたがめざめるなら
わたしはうたをうたう

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Stimulated by whispers
An impulse runs through me
In the days buried in darkness
Release the sunlight

Everyone is dreaming
A dream that never wakes up
Trapped forever
Trapped forever

[Ghost in the Shell narration]

Life is like a nodal point born in an overwhelming sea of information.

And life, when organized into species relies upon genes to be its memory system.

So, man is an individual memory system only because of his intangible memory.

And a memory cannot be defined, but it defines mankind.

When the advent of computers made the externalization of memories possible, you should have taken its meaning more seriously.

My code name is Project 2501.

I am a living, thinking entity who was created in the sea of information.

[End of Narration]

Even if everything is an illusion
What is your wish?
To be trapped forever?
Or to wake up?

That's why I want you to tell me
Who I am
If you wake up
I sing a song

My imagining of B's awesome track.

Merry Christmas 🎄❄️☃️⭐

It's my favourite time of year so I thought I would try and create a festive sounding piece of music! 

A Winter's Tale

Here's a new arrangement I did of the beloved Christmas hymn O Holy Night.

Check out my playlist of Christmas music I've recorded: https://on.soundcloud.com/XnnWxQoBAZBGMjg46

O Holy Night- Christmas 2023

Lyrics;
Summer brought the sunshine
Winter brought the freeze
Spring had sprung me to my feet
You want me falling to my knees

You brushed me off your shoulders
You up and turned your back
The tight rope I've been walking on
Feeling mighty slack

Once we had a fire
Burning hot and bright
Long gone are the embers
And it's pretty cold at night

This race is run
What's done is done
We ran right off the course
No point in pointing fingers
Or beating this dead horse

I remember way back when
On the day you said "I do"
Love me till the day I die
Now I see that wasn't true

And so I'll say goodbye my love
And move on down the line
Thinking of what might have been
Got to get you off my mind

Once we had a fire
Burning hot and bright
Long gone are the embers
And it's freezing cold at night

This race is run
What's done is done
We ran right off the course
No point in pointing fingers
Or beating this dead horse

Composed in October 2023.

Whenever I send a song to Clive I expect something great. I have already lost faith in giving him a title that he would always modify to give it a better meaning.

After sending me the cover art, and seeing what motivated him to write the lyrics, I can imagine it on his bicycle, returning home after a hard day at work.

And, certainly, be it in England, Spain, or wherever... there is no better place than your home.

lyrics:-

Home
Where the heart is
Home
Where my mind can roam
The precious time i spend alone

When the working day is over
That's my favorite time , I'm going home
I like to be there on my own
I used to be a kind of rover
Being loud , those days are over
Home
I like to be here on my own

Por amor
 
De tanto suponer un mañana
en un lugar que abrigue del frio
quizá te vi por una ventana
o tal vez fue a orillas del rio.

Será que al fin oí las campanas
después de un largo tiempo dormido
Tal vez porque musas holgazanas
despiertan sobre un Do sostenido.

Rogué por un pedazo de cielo
lloré por ver un árbol caído
caí como la piedra en el hielo
bajo el sol.

Seguí la luz que se asoma y emana
confiado en un destello encendido
la llama que en las sombras me aclara
se funde con lo desconocido.

Y acaso te seguí por senderos
de un tiempo que se vuelve testigo
la danza entre viento y el velo
descubre un tesoro escondido.

Sentí que en un instante pasaron
los años que quedaron perdidos
el día que tus ojos brillaron
por amor.


Letra y música: Pichy Sotomayor

Por Amor

🎄 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.

Waiting for the First Star

Waiting for the First Star 🎄

Merry Christmas or Happy Holiday of your choice(s)!! Most of what few holiday songs I have done, I have put an unexpected twist in the middle. For example, Valentines day I did an ambient candy outer shell with a chewy jazzy center. Or last Christmas, I did a song called Bipolar Charlie (Brown) which took a happy Peanuts song and made it dark in the middle in an unexpected turn of events. Here's this holiday's take with a twist on the old classic; "Oh Christmas Tree". 

Hope you enjoy!

LA MIA DOLCE MAMMA E IO, ABBIAMO VOGLIA DI CONDIVIDERE UN PROGETTO MAGICO CON VOI.
abbiamo fatto questa canzone, per dire NO alla guerra. Per sensibilizzare sulla guerra nel mondo e fare un viaggio. Abbiamo tutti bisogno di pace, e di serenità.. La guerra porta dolore, paura, povertà... Nessun essere umano, lo merita.. per tutti i nonni morti in prima linea, senza possibilità di sottrarsi. Per le mamme che hanno perso un figlio, un marito, un fratello.. Per le città, che non sono mai più state ricostruite.. per le anime, che non dimenticheranno mai. Per  infanti orfani, che crescono da soli, nelle macerie.... nella vita è sbagliato il concetto di "giusto o sbagliato"(paradossale) MA LA GUERRA è SBAGLIATA, NON CI SONO FORSE, NON CI SONO "MA"... LA GUERRA NON DOVREBBE ESISTERE, E ANCHE SE SEMBRA CHE NON CI SIANO REALI SOLUZIONI PER FERMARLA, IL NOSTRO MESSAGGIO è QUESTO. FANCULO LA GUERRA BASTARDI!! NOI AMIAMO LA PACE!!!! NOI VOGLIAMO LA PACE!!!
MY SWEET MOM AND I WANT TO SHARE A MAGICAL PROJECT WITH YOU.
we made this song, to say no to war. To raise awareness about war in the world and take a trip. We all need peace and serenity... War brings pain, fear, poverty... No human being deserves it... for all the grandparents who died on the front line, without the possibility of escaping. For the mothers who lost a son, a husband, a brother.. For the cities, which have never been rebuilt again.. for the souls, who will never forget. For orphaned infants, who grow up alone, in the rubble.... the concept of "right or wrong" is wrong in life (PARADOXICAL). Secondly, if only one thing can be applied, war is one of a kind. WAR IS WRONG, THERE ARE NO MAYBES, THERE ARE NO "BUTS"... WAR SHOULD NOT EXIST, AND EVEN IF IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE NO REAL SOLUTIONS TO STOP IT, OUR MESSAGE IS THIS. FUCK THE WAR YOU BASTARDS!! WE LOVE PEACE!!!! WE WANT PEACE🧡
WE HOPE YOU LIKE IT!!

-------- Passage to 2024 ---------

Only a few moments left,
a few days, a few hours,
we end this beautiful year of shit,
we start the countdown,

A year too dry,
A year too wet,
a year with too many wars,
too much hatred,
too much selfishness,

Before the passage,
the new promises,
new hopes,
of happiness,
health,
but above all peace,

the passage,
towards crazy hope,
of a better world,

the passage,
towards crazy hope,
of a better world,

Passage to 2024

Passage To 2024

Last track of 2023 is finally here, a very classic melodic house track of mine with a little bit of DnB mixed to it!

Thanks for all the support this year, means the world to me!
My ambition is to keep up the monthly releases next year aswell so that'll be my lil' cheesy New Year's resolution. Which I'm very motivated to keep up at the moment. 🤣

Anyway, hope everyone has a great New Year's eve!

See you in 2024! ❤️

If you use AI in any form to create "your music", don't bother with my profile, you are not welcome here.
AI music generation detector: https://www.submithub.com/ai-song-checker
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, 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.
