Great bossa! It's a pleasure to listen to. The guitar is superb!

Hi, really beautiful sweet sound, positiv, very well realized !

Wow! So great to hear pop song with a Bossa Nova beat. Perfect!

Soothing beauty with great percussion! Excellent melody as always. Yet another winner Richard. Much appreciate you sharing your wonderful songs.

Hi,

I'm really happy to propose you Matziz's new single, titled "Barraque Beat with Rax label.
For the style it's a sort of Electronica, IDM, Impressionist, Rock, Weird Dance...
And it speaks about a toad, trying to enter a very weird house...

Hope you'll like it

Ordinary Daydreams

Reminiscence of Chief Joseph and the Nez Percé war 1877.
Some words about the historical background can be found here:
https://www.britannica.com/biography/Chief-Joseph

The lyrics are in part an excerpt of the original words which Chief Joseph spoke to his followers of the Nez Percé, when they finally surrendered on October 5th, 1877.


In the shadows of our fears,
We’ve shed too many tears.
Now it’s time to break free,
From the chains of enmity.

From the battles we have faced,
We’ve learned the costs of hate.
But in forgiveness we’ll find strength
To go beyond this war at end.

What he told me before
I have in my heart. 
I am tired of fighting. 
Our chiefs are dying.

Maybe I shall find them among the dead.
Hear me, my chiefs, I am tired.
My heart is sad and sick 
From where the sun now stands
I will fight no more forever.

The storm raged hard and broke our souls
The years of war did take their toll  
The face of yours turned into grey
No saving shores in any way 

What he told me before
I have in my heart. 
I am tired of fighting. 
Our chiefs are dying.
Maybe I shall find them among the dead.
Hear me, my chiefs, I am tired.
My heart is sad and sick.
From where the sun now stands 
I will fight no more forever.

Fight No More Forever

Ventilyator 666 - Сквозь Тьму

Mark says,
"Making music with Rodolfo is always exciting and often a challenge, although I know we both find it stimulating, as we always aim to reach high and this post is no exception. This new song, started its gestation almost a year ago, instantly showed a lot of promise and since has been through many stages of exploration and rounds of problem-solving. The painfully blunt lyrics were initially inspired by a friend's brutal relationship break-up, but the final result is much heavier. I hope you find it moving rather than disturbing, I was trying to match the mood of Rod's deeply dramatic music."

Rodolfo says,
"I think it's a fantastic song and you've done an amazing job on both the story and the vocals, especially those tough lines. When I was writing it, I just felt like a modern blues with a techno vibe was taking shape. The final sound was defined by the story and those really dramatic, emotional lyrics. You might want to make it clear that it's a fictional story to avoid giving our friends heart attacks."

We appreciate all of the kind support that the Soundcloud community has given our collaborations. Thanks for listening and sharing your thoughts, Mark and Rodolfo

Moments of stress,
How did you deal with the rest?
All that is left of you and me,
Is wrecked.
How can we expect,
To go on when there’s nothing at all left?
 
…Left in the lurch,
You should have done more research.
I was truly never a safe bet for you…
For you could have made,
A much better match than you did with me.
 
Open your eyes,
I promise you won’t be surprised,
It’s been there before you,
All along, all of the way…
…Way before you had sensed,
That we had got it all so wrong by then.
 
Moments of stress,
All such a mess,
It’s anyone’s guess,
How it all went so wrong?
Moments of stress,
No more nor less,
Need I express,
How it all went so wrong?

I'm very happy to share with you my very first attempt at songwriting! 🤩 I hope this song touches your hearts, even a tiny bit. This song wouldn’t have been possible without the beautiful guitar tune that Counterworlds Voltage kindly let me sing over.

I was in the dark
when I first found you, my love
I never thought that a star
would ever notice my soul
But you were always around  
just never thought it was me
that you were looking for
longing for

Give me a sign
and I will open my heart
so you can sleep inside
See it's made for you
find myself in you
I'll lose myself in you

Was staring the sea
when I felt wind on my face
One foot was soaked, can you see?
The other holding my pace
Rested my hands on your head
to heal the air that you breathe
Just lose yourself in me
Find yourself in me

Give me a sign
and I will travel the worlds
with nothing but my voice
As if it’s not my choice
not my choice

Let go of your fear
and feel my sound caress you
as if it’s not your choice
Leave behind the noise
Leave behind the noise

Lyrics:

Pretending everything is just okay
Always a smile on my face
Walking right beside you all the way
You don't see my depressive days

Chorus:
Sometimes when you see me
It is not me you see
Sometimes when you hear me
It is not me you hear..

Says a lot of words that I don't mean
Gives a lot of signals you don't see
Decorates the inner me for you
Longing to be real, to show the truth

Chorus

Telling everyone that I am fine
Even if I'm feeling down
Push away the shadow inside me
I can cry when I'm alone

Chorus

There's no need to ask if I'm okay
I will just smile and say yes
But if you look closely, you will see
That my eyes would never lie..

Sometimes when you see me
It is not me you see
Sometimes when you hear me
It is not me you hear...

It Is Not Me

The stockings have been hung, with care, the tree is up and lit.
It’s Christmas time, that much is clear.
The children all have made their lists, and sent them to Saint Nick.
It won’t be long, the time is near.
There is just one thing left to do, to those still miles apart.
To all of you we hold so dear.
We wish you Merry Christmas from our heart.

Merry, merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
I hope you know that even though the miles, they separate,
Does not mean we forgot, you’re always in our thoughts.
We wish you all were here, so we could celebrate.
But since you’re not, we plan to stop on Christmas Eve
And offer up a little prayer for you.
Merry Christmas from all of us, to you.

But since you’re not, we plan to stop on Christmas Eve
And offer up a little prayer for you.
Merry Christmas from all of us, we hope you also think of us,
Merry Christmas from all of us, to you.



Merry Christmas from All of Us
