Hi EVERYONE!

In this playlist, you’ll find some of my best original songs — the ones I’m most proud of. It’s been a long, challenging journey to grow into a solid musician, songwriter, arranger, and producer… but TOTALLY worth it! I had a write-well-or-die mindset and never once considered quitting.

Songwriting isn’t an easy craft. It demands mastery of multiple disciplines — each deep enough that people earn full degrees in them. So when someone actually reaches professional-level skill across the board, it’s kind of a miracle.

IMHO, to be a super-solid songwriter and producer, you’ve got to be competent in these areas:

Lyric writing and storytelling — crafting words that move people and tell the truth beautifully.

Music theory fundamentals — knowing how major and minor scales work, how diatonic chords are built, and how melody interacts with harmony. Without that knowledge, songs often rely on the same I-IV-V progressions, missing the magic of intervals, steps, leaps, repetition, and those irresistible earworm melodies.

Arranging across styles and genres — understanding the conventions, instrument ranges, grooves, and textures that define each genre. The right combination of instruments and rhythms can turn a good song into a certified banger.

Producer-level skills — tying it all together in a DAW (Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Studio One, etc.), using EQ, compression, reverb, and delay tastefully. Knowing when low frequencies are clashing, how to carve space in the mix, how to get the best performances out of vocalists and players.

All that takes years to master — so it’s a friggin’ miracle anyone becomes a great producer at all.

🎉 Huge congrats to my friends here on SoundCloud who kept their noses to the grindstone and broke through the wall!

Our Unfair Advantage   v. Mellow –– R & B. w/ GB Style Gtr.....Two misfits, and a love that bends the odds.

Our Unfair Advantage

Verse 1
We don’t play by the rules they hand us,
built our fire from sparks they abandoned.
Two misfits finding rhythm in the static,
what we’ve got is rare, unstoppable, magnetic.

Chorus
With you by my side, I’ve got an unfair advantage,
the world can’t touch us, no matter the damage.
They don’t know the secret, they don’t understand it —
love like ours is our unfair advantage.

Verse 2
When the weight of the world tries to break us,
we just laugh at the storm as it shakes us.
Every scar’s just proof we’re survivors,
together we rise, together we’re fighters.

Chorus
With you by my side, I’ve got an unfair advantage,
the world can’t touch us, no matter the damage.
They don’t know the secret, they don’t understand it —
love like ours is our unfair advantage.

Bridge
I talk too loud, you overthink,
we trip on our shadows, stand on the brink.
But broken pieces fit when they’re aligned,
two misfits in love with a dangerous design.

Chorus
With you by my side, I’ve got an unfair advantage,
the world can’t touch us, no matter the damage.
They don’t know the secret, they don’t understand it —
love like ours is our unfair advantage.

Outro
Yeah… love like ours is our unfair advantage.
Whispered truth the world will never manage.

Ghost of XJP Haunts DJT     Reidmoto: ALL Story: The Ghost of Xi Jinping, president of China, pays DJT a SPOOKY VISIT!

Ghost of XJP Haunts DJT

Intro
I'm the ghost of XJP
Watchin’ you tonight
Watchin’ you tonight
I might make you cry

[Verse 1]
I lead a billion minds that never sleep
Two million soldiers, a promise we keep
From the East we rise, machine and dream
I’m the ghost of XJP

[Verse 2]
You build your walls of code and steel
But the future bends to the ones who feel
I speak in silence, through data streams
I’m the ghost inside your machine

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m the silk thread sewn through your mystery
You built the wall — I own the bricks, you see
Every deal you made was laced with me
Now I’m hauntin’ you through your own TV

[Chorus]
Hey big man in the neon light, don’t blink tonight
I’m the shadow in your data byte
Every post you send, I’m readin’ the code
Your empire’s crackin’ down the Silk Road

[Pre-Chorus]
 I’m the silk thread sewn through your mystery,
 You built the wall — I own the bricks, you see.
 Every deal you made was laced with me,
 Now I’m hauntin’ you through your own TV.

[Chorus]
I'm the ghost of XJP— don’t sleep tonight,
 I’m the shadow in your neon light.
 Every tweet you send, I’m readin’ the code,
 Your empire’s crackin’ down the Silk Road.

[Verse 3]
 We moved the chips, we moved the minds,
 We watched your markets draw their lines.
 You talk big towers, I build time —
 History’s mine; you’re just the headline.

[Bridge]
 From your feed to your mirror, I’m already there,
 In every algorithm — beware, beware.
 You can’t ban me, block me, or turn away,
 I’m the spirit that codes your U.S.A.

[Final Chorus / Outro]
I'm the ghost of Spooky XJP — don’t sleep tonight,
 I’m the ghost behind your satellite.
 You can brag, you can rave, you can pray to the sky,
 But I’m already there — in your Wi-Fi.

Floatin' In Space - by Paploviante –– Title & Music; Reidmoto – Lyrics, Final Mix. Note: Vocalist was high, drunk, and shivering, so her vocals are not always clear.

They said the trucks run early when it rains…
You can hear ‘em before dawn — 
the ones that take what’s left.
Ain’t nobody comin’ back for me.

Guess I’m just another story…

Floatin’… in Space.

[Verse 1]
He said, “Sweetheart, you gotta order some food.”
Just doin’ his job, not tryin’ to be rude.
Fishnets torn, mascara rain,
Thunderbird tears runnin’ down the drain.

[Verse 2]
My bag got jacked, only shorts and a tee.
Last trick gone, nobody lookin’ for me.
Dumpster’s warm, the rain hits hard,
Just a night on earth in God’s junkyard.

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The last thing I remembered,
Bones were snappin’, limbs dismembered.
Tried to scream but had no breath,
My fade to black — a trash-truck death.

[Chorus 1]
She appeared in a mist of GLORY,
“I’m the Angel of Purgatory.
Get some rest, I’ll check your story.”

Been EONS since I’ve seen her face,
I’m fluh-fluh-floating in space.

[Verse 3]
I rose above alleys of flickering light,
Past burnt spoons glowing in the night.
The city below was a rosary chain,
Every bead a body whisperin’ my name.

[Verse 4]
I called to the Angel, “Hey, you still there?”
Her halo flickered like welfare glare.
She said, “Baby, I just light the way —
You walk alone till your debts are paid”

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Stars were cryin’, galaxies bled,
Heaven looked blue but it burned out red.
I begged for mercy, but the line went cold.
Just the hum of truth I never told.

[Chorus 2]
She appeared in a mist of GLORY,
“You wrote your own sad story.”
“Rest awhile in this empty place…”
Then she vanished — without a trace.

[Bridge / Spoken Drift]
No wings, no trumpet, no pearly gate,
Just me and the dark and the hands of fate.
Some angels clock out when the sirens wail,
Some souls just ride the garbage rail.

[Final Chorus / Outro]
Been EONS since I’ve seen her face,
I’m fluh-fluh-floating in space.
She ain’t comin’ back — not for grace,
Just driftin’ forever…

floating…
in space.

“Get some rest… I’ll check your story…”
static…
dumpster lid closes…

Degen De-Evolution
Reidmoto: Lyrics & Producer

[Verse 1 – Female]
 I don’t know what’s happening to me?
 It doesn’t seem real — am I imagining glee?
 When I see you from afar I get this maddening need,
 To start drifting your way — you’re my emotional weed.

I don’t care what you’re doing,
 or what my boss will say,
 I need to slide into your forcefield
feel the power of your masculinity!

[Pre-Chorus]
 I think I’m in reverse evolution.
 You’re my one and only solution.
 I’m so scared of devolving into a monkey —
 Then next, a dumb ol’ braying donkey!

[Chorus]
 I’ve become such a Degen for you.
Let’s stay in bed all weekend, LIGHT FLAMES!
Like only we can do! 
Let’s have a marathon binge — let’s get unhinged!
Live like there’s no tomorrow, at the edge of the fringe!

[Bridge]
 My mind’s gone to mush, my will’s collapsing.
 Dopamine surging, synapses snapping.
 I need to get a grip — oh, sweet Hosanna!
 Before I evolve into a single cell amoeba!
 And end up modeling for Nano Banana!

No puedo, mi Papi! Ay, cariño!

[Breakdown – Spoken / flirt-rant style]
 You call that evolution? Please.
 I’ve turned into goo over your pretty face.
 You smell like risk and crypto fumes —
 And I like it.

 Maybe I need sex therapy.
 Nah, talk to me nasty and syrupy!
 Oh lord, I’m beyond hope —
 So tie me down with your dopamine rope!

[Final Chorus – Elevated / Playful Reprise]
 I’ve become such a Degen for you!
 Trading my brain for your déjà vu.
 Let’s lose control, and scroll and scroll —
 Through new hot kinks, we create on a roll!

[Outro – Spoken / Fade]
 "You’re insane! I know. Evolution’s overrated.
What now?
 Him: Let’s devolve together, baby.
 Her (laughing): Ugh. You’re impossible.
 Him: I’m a Dejen… for you.

ONE MESSAGE FROM ME TO MY CONTACT ON SOUNDCLOUD AND YOU WILL BE BANNED FOR LIFE. 

Now that we've got that straight...

I'm a songwriter and musician, have played in bands, play mostly guitar, and a bit of keyboards, but my primary passion is writing songs--creating cool songs that people can relate to. 

I like to write songs that have meaning and emotional impact, but try to also include some humor in them to make it not so serious and heavy. 

I hope you enjoy some of the songs.
