Still Thinkin'

New Car Blues

It's a blessing to be able to create music and if someone enjoys my work, that's icing on the cake! All blessings come from God.

As a retired DOD Civil Service worker, I have time to record some. I have been recording at home for around 23 years and some of my tracks are very old.  I‘ve had 50+ years in bands playing music of many types. I still play the club scene 3 to 4 times a month. Life is good!

I'm a Guitarist who likes to write, record and sing many styles of music. Please check out my tracks. I'm also enjoying the occasional collaborations.  Meeting some good friends on here and continuing to grow. Thank you for listening!

Independent artist making songs that rock.

I don’t know about you but I miss hearing songs that just rock.  A couple of guitars, bass, drums, vocals, and harmonies make such a powerful combination.  It’s this power and energy that I’m after in the songs I record.
I perform all parts on these recordings unless otherwise specified. I’m primarily a guitar player and never considered myself a singer but I started doing it to complete my songs and I may be finding a voice for myself.
I’m open to collaboration so reach out if you’d like to work on some tracks.  I don’t have any rap on my tracks, don’t listen to much rap, but I have a couple of incomplete songs I’m interested in brining some rap into.  So let me know if any of you rappers want to collaborate with a rocker.
Recording, mixing, mastering is just as much of a hobby as playing the music is.  If you’d like another ear on your mix or some mastering done, drop me a message.  I’m not looking for money for it, just the opportunity to practice my skills on other artists work, see what I can do, and help a fellow musician.
Finally, I’m looking to put together a band to see how my songs work live.  Reach out if you’re interested and in the RDU area.  Follow me on my social media links to get the latest updates on the journey and share some music and laughs.
Cheers!

Tulipe est le surnom que ma mère m'avait donné quand j'étais enfant.
La musique de Tulipe est très variée, du rock au blues en passant par le  psychédélique et bien plus encore

MY NEWEST TRACKS ARE MY WORDS AND THE MUSIC IS A COLLAB BETWEEN ME AND THE SUNO AI. I play guitars and bass, sing a bit and my 3 most played tracks are 'handmade' - but I have become quite ill the last year and have little energy, mostly staying in bed 'waiting for death to arrive' (quoting myself!). 

But the need for me to make music is immense so to get my lyrics set to music - I may write better lyrics than I play guitar - set to music that I like to listen to  myself and "if other people like it, that's just a bonus" (Hi, Ren!). The 3 most played tracks are "The Really Nice Guitar Speaks" (about 14 250 plays), Almost No Time Left (around 8600 plays) and still at third place on my personal hit list is "Time is an illusion" (7200 plays). This third track is very special to me since there are only some bass and a weak keyboard behind my guitar, no drums nor bongos. My father died May 2024 and we played "Time is an illusion" as we (I tried, but couldn't) carried his coffin to the grave. 
I know that many people do not look at the words 'behind this track', but I make it very clear that my words have artificial intelligence (some intelligence there must be even here!) wrappings. I make a lot of creative decisions when I make music assisted by AI, it is not 'push a button' like many believe and many also do - I have to edit something here and there, listening, trying to make a better prompt and so forth.  I think that to use an AI well one must have an ear for melodies and for what functions the intended way. 
I have written about one hundred songs with my words and my guitars and bass. Some of these are okay but many are sheer drivel. Still, I am very happy that my 3 most played and most liked songs have been made by my own hands and not by a machine. But I can clearly hear that the machine plays like a pro and things sound in my humble opinion better when played by the Suno AI than by me. 
I like to tell you this so you will know that I am not trying to trick anybody with these songs that my "persona" sings like a god.  My words are not too happy these days, but I try to get some fun stuff done to my lyrics too - the second version (the quick one!) of the song "Soldier" should have had much more darkness and sorrow than the version you get. But I just couldn't help myself, it seemed to me to be very catchy. So this old man is closing in on death and can make music only by AI, but it sounds good, doesn't it? 
I was a teen in the seventies and the photograph is a photo of me taken some 3-4 years ago that I edited just a tiny bit to get that young guy come forth. This is way more info than you need, but I needed this to be said! So be grateful for your health and youth or be just as grateful for having lived a long time and experienced a hell of a lot more than the youngsters have!!
