Collaborations w/ Angostura Elwar aka Ingvar Tautra

https://soundcloud.com/agnosturaelwar/awaken-dreamer is a wonderful track I by Ingvar Tatura. This track went straight into my heart and inspired yet another collaboration between us. I swear the man knows my musical heart and soul. So after one day and a few listens it went into my daw-recorder. After a couple of takes the piece grew into another collaboration. I hope you enjoy as much as I did.

Re - Life Finds Its Way Anyway w/ Agnostura Elwar aka Ingvar Tautra

Distant Lives is the result of my first experiments with frequency modulation. I finally opened Ableton Operator to see how it works, and when I heard this three-overtone saw wave modulated by a 4-bit sine, I instantly fell in love with it. I randomly played some notes on my MIDI keyboard, and this surprisingly sweet melody emerged.

It reminded me of a few images I shot last winter at the Siófok pier—a red lantern coloring the shoreline and casting new light on the dusk. Aren't we all just mesmerized by the sight of great lakes and seas? Contemplating distances and unreachable goals? Are there people standing on the other side, looking in our direction with the same curiosity as us? Is there a better life waiting for us all, or is this the better life?

This is a rare case of image and sound inspiring each other in a feedback loop. I quite like this piece, and I hope you find something in it too.

Distant Lives

To Higher Ground

When I heard the truth,
I began to shake
My legs gave way,
all I could do
was tremble and wait
Now I stand,
unafraid and awake
Waiting for
the day of the Lord

If trees don’t bloom,
no fruit on the vine,
crops disappear,
and there is no wine
Flocks are cut off,
herds gone from their stalls
What shall we do
when we’ve lost it all?

I will thank the Lord, He saves,
giving me the strength to carry on
Making my feet swift as deer,
To higher ground He leads on

The Lord is in 
His holy place
Let all the earth 
seek His holy face
For all the earth
filled with glory be,
as the waters
cover the sea

I will thank the Lord, He saves,
giving me the strength to carry on
Making my feet swift as deer,
to higher ground He leads on

If anyone wishes to come after Him, 
deny the self, take up the cross and follow Him. 
For whoever wishes to save their life will lose it;
But whoever loses their life for His sake will find it. 

For what does it profit to gain the whole world and
lose your soul? Or what will you give in exchange
for your soul?

For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory
of His Father with His angels, and will then repay 
every one according to their deeds

To Higher Ground

Love isn't real anymore
don't even wanna feel anymore
I need time to heal
but every time I try to leave
he takes my heart back


Real Love

From across the room. Eyes meet, ritual ensues.......boy meets girl, girl meets boy. Happy ending.....

Tonight

Lyrik: (The English translation is below the German lyrics)
In grauer Stadt verloren
Die Seele schwer wie Stein 
(schwer wie Stein)
Als wär ich neu geboren
In Dunkelheit allein 
(ganz allein)

Doch dann kamst du zu mir 
(kam ich zu dir)
Mit Licht in deinen Händen 
(meinen Händen)
Zeigtest einen Weg von hier 
(einen Weg)
Die Einsamkeit zu beenden

Du bist mein Leuchtfeuer in der Nacht 
(Leuchtfeuer in der Nacht)
Hebst mich auf wenn ich gefallen 
(wenn du gefallen)
Hast den Glauben zurückgebracht 
(Glauben zurückgebracht)
Lässt dein "Ich bin da" erschallen 
(ich bin bei dir)

Die Ketten sind gebrochen
Die mich so lang gebunden 
(lang gebunden)
Was stumm blieb unausgesprochen
Hat endlich Worte gefunden 
(Worte gefunden)

Wo Mauern mich umgaben 
(Mauern um dich)
Seh ich nun neue Wege 
(neue Wege)
All die verschütteten Gaben 
(verschüttet)
Kommen wieder zum Leben

Du bist mein Leuchtfeuer in der Nacht 
(Leuchtfeuer in der Nacht)
Hebst mich auf wenn ich gefallen 
(wenn du gefallen)
Hast den Glauben zurückgebracht 
(Glauben zurückgebracht)
Lässt dein "Ich bin da" erschallen 
(ich bin bei dir)

Die Narben bleiben als Zeichen 
(als Zeichen der Zeit)
Der Weg war weit bis hier 
(so weit bis hier)
Doch sie werden verbleichen 
(verbleichen sanft)
Im Licht das ich spür

Du bist mein Leuchtfeuer in der Nacht        
(Leuchtfeuer in der Nacht)
Hebst mich auf wenn ich gefallen 
(wenn du gefallen)
Hast den Glauben zurückgebracht 
(Glauben zurückgebracht)
Lässt dein "Ich bin da" erschallen 
(ich bin bei dir)

Und ich breite meine Flügel aus 
(Flügel aus)
Fliege dir entgegen 
(mir entgegen)
In ein neues Zuhause hinaus 
(neues Zuhause)
Unter deinem Segen

English translation:
Lost in the gray city
Soul as heavy as stone 
(as heavy as stone)
As if I was born again
In the dark alone 
(all alone)

But then you came to me 
(I came to you)
With light in your hands 
(my hands)
Showing a way out of here 
(a way)
To end the loneliness

You're my beacon in the night 
(beacon in the night)
Picking me up when I've fallen 
(when you've fallen)
Bringing back the faith 
(bringing back faith)
Sounding your “I'm here” 
(I'm with you)

The chains are broken
That bound me for so long 
(tied me up for so long)
What remained unspoken
Has finally found words 
(found words)

Where walls surrounded me 
(walls around you)
I now see new paths 
(new paths)
All the buried gifts 
(buried)
Come to life again

You are my beacon in the night 
(beacon in the night)
You pick me up when I fall 
(when you fall)
You have brought back faith 
(brought back faith)
You let your “I am there” resound 
(I am with you)

The scars remain as a sign 
(as a sign of the times)
It's been a long way to here 
(so far to here)
But they will fade 
(fade gently)
In the light that I feel

You are my beacon in the night 
(beacon in the night)
You pick me up when I've fallen 
(when you've fallen)
You've brought back the faith 
(faith returned)
Shouting your “I'm here” 
(I'm here)

And I spread my wings 
(wings out)
Flying towards you 
(Towards me)
Into a new home 
(New home)
Underneath your blessing

Leuchtfeuer in der Nacht

STAND DUB

STAND DUB - (Future Dub / Dub Reggae)

When I got into playing decades ago, I never really got into Andy's playing until I heard this song, and it left me speechless. There are countless covers of this amazing song and surprisingly most of them are pretty amazing. I just wanted to say thank you to Andy for all the amazing music he shared with the world. I hope this tribute finds you.

Cry For You

The piece is based around Agnostura Elwar's https://soundcloud.com/agnosturaelwar May 14th open collaboration clip 3.5. His beautiful moving guitar riff made me smile and laugh.  I felt like a three year old again jumping up and down.  It was pure magic for me!

Ingvar I was thinking to add piano but the more I listened to this the less I felt complied to do so. I just love the riff. It is all so sweet like a child's smile..

Of Laughter and Smiles w/ Agnostura Elwar

This piece was something I initially composed as a submission/invitation   to the fabulous Agnostura Elwar. @agnosturaelwar. I was lucky enough for him to reply with something I believe that is something very special. In my mind at least, we seem to have some kind of chemistry together that defies distance, space and time. I hope you agree .

My dear friend  Ingvar blessed me with a great guitar part and these kind words about this piece, " My brother from Wet Mountain Valley, Colorado, United States, mr. Re-Evolution Café Orchestra @re-evolution_cafe has sent me several great recordings for me to add something. Thats an honor, but also its hard work, hahaha."  

"Well, this was challenging, I did it the free spirit way. It would have been easier to do it through the guitaramp, hi gain, load because then you feel the music much on your body than sitting with headphones and play. This is without a lot of rehearsal just because if I rehears to much I tries to hard to follow scales and harmonies, but this music aint about that. I think leaving music theory is good learning, be free from the chains."

I am lucky to have such a kind talented collaborator who is willing and able to risk playing so emotionally soulful. Bravo sir!
