Extern mix and mastering:  MTM Mastering True Music Production Spain.
Mixed and mastered by Christine Sampson of MTM

I recorded this song with Jerald Sarmiento in 2020.
I kept listening to this song on SoundCloud.
This song I tried to re-produce more in the folk genre.
I re-recorded acoustic guitar and added some bass and percussion.
I slightly reduced Jerald's voice, those annoying DE eaters and other noises.
The song has now got a new color.

Mahal ko is the 2th song of my folk album 2023 The Beauty of Nature 
I will release the album  in December 2023.

https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/album/0DqIXnxtjksVLbrGqFhkUJ?si=ug1njbnKSI-D3zDxTekx9A

I sent the finished folk song and 12 stems to MTM Mastering True Music Production for checking and sound improvement, which worked very well. A very nice team from Spain. Guitars and voice have now got the sound I had imagined. For me it was very worthwhile to pass this mix and mastering on to an external company. When composing and recording, mixing and mastering, your ear becomes fixed in your DAW (brain). You often don't find your sounds that good. That's why I use an external mix and mastering studio to check. I really had a very positive experience with MTM. With young ears and with professional training that completed my work.
 
Thanks for the collaboration, Freddie and Team MTM Mastering True Music Production

Sins and Broken Doves

There’s a change that’s coming soon
And we don’t think that it should
It's different and new
So we know it isn’t good
So deny any evidence
And stop tryin to think it through
The outside is coming in
So you know what you have to do

Lockdown
Everybody stay inside
Lock down
Just embrace your fears and hide
Lock down
Go outside and you will die
So Shut your eyes and close your mind
And just sing La La la la la la

There’s a change that’s coming soon
Sent here to disrupt
To take everything we know
Rearrange and deconstruct 
And we don’t know what it is
And we don’t know what it can do
First it comes for your family
And then it will come for you

Wolves are at your door

Lockdown
Everybody stay inside
Lock down
Just embrace your fears and hide
Lock down
Go outside and you will die
So Shut your eyes and close your mind
And just sing La La la la la la

There’s a change that’s coming soon
And we don’t think that it should
Different and new
So we know it isn’t good
And we don’t know what it is
And we don’t know what it can do
First it comes for your family
And then it will come for you

ABOUT THE ARIA
From The Companion, the first act of a trio of operas called Three Way. In The Companion, Maya lives with her android lover, Joe.

In this aria, after Maya asks about his day, Joe goes into a highly specific litany of the day’s events, to Maya’s irritation.

ABOUT THE OPERA

LYRICS
What did I do today?
Just a minute. Just a minute.
7:05 a.m.: I made you breakfast in bed. 
Banana and chocolate crepes, Darjeeling tea, soymilk and raw sugar.
I made love to you: Position Number 16: The Prancing Pony.
You climaxed at 7:49.
At 7:50 you sat up saying you had an early conference call.
You dressed; you left.
I made the bed.
Seven sheets of tissue paper remain in the box on the table by the bed.
I cleaned the house. Bathroom.
Clean-Rite Disinfecting Spray, 
Now with 15% more bacteria-killing formula 
Per squeeze.
Then I tidied the living room.
And kitchen.
On the street a dog barked in repeating patterns for 22 minutes.
A child came to the door selling cookies.
I had no money. She went away.
At three-thirty I pre-screened the 2003 romantic comedy A Villa in Tuscany.
It earned a 79.6 applause rating on Classic-Flix-dot-com.
The views of Tuscan countryside in high summer are to die for,
And the lush, soaring score was nominated for an Oscar.
I set aside one packet of microwave popcorn.
I made you dinner.
Recipe Number 29: Vegetarian Lasagna.
Sunset at 6:42.
I lit the five rose-scented candles.
Chilled the champagne, waited for you.
You came home at 7:21.
Now it’s 7:32.
What else did I do?
Enough about me. What about you?

LYRICS
What I want is a man. 
Not just any man: the perfect man. 
Who will be here, ready and happy,
At the end of every day.
You may find it alarming 
But Prince Charming
Is just an upgrade away.
He can kiss me so tenderly,
Or hard and savagely.
He is a generous lover.
He can last all night in the sack
Without going slack.
He can hold back on his back
Until I’m done.
He thinks of me first and last,
Every time, every day.
And he never thinks of himself.
He never thinks at all.
But he seems to think,
And that makes all the difference!
That’s the perfect man.
Oh, I’ve had men—
Or weak creatures that called themselves men.
Selfish, stupid, lazy, greedy boys.
And after wasting years of my life
Playing house and wife,
I’ve decided to go home with my toys.
What I want is a man. 
Not just any man:
The perfect man.

LYRICS
I know how it works: 
Semiorganic physiomatrix 
Molded over fiberoptic skeletal frame. 
Ten terabyte processing capacity. 
Saline and protein channels to simulate everything 
From crying to climax! 
I can fix it. I comprehend it.
It can move. It can pretend.
It can compute. It can emote.
It can simulate. And stimulate.
It works!
But people, all these people,
People are broken machines.
Their appetites, quirks, flaws, moods.
Changing attitudes: today kind, tomorrow cruel.
Hard to please: hot with urges but suddenly cool.
People, all these people. 
People are broken machines.
I visit their homes every day.
Upgrades, downloads, diagnostic, termination.
People are broken machines.
One man wants his mother.
Another wants a whore.
A woman wants her daddy.
Another wants Mr. Right.
What do you want? 
The perfect man?
Or an imitation of the image of perfection?
The difference between you and me
Is this: I know my home is empty.

LYRICS
You were my first love,
The one I will never forget.
Your passion, your laugh,
I will never forget.
You taught me how to love,
How to be the perfect man,
But we were not meant to be.
You I will never forget.
Remember my kiss,
Forget the pain, goodbye.

LYRICS
Charlie Darwin got it right:
To thrive in the jungle, 
A man’s got to fight.
A man’s got to kill,
And that takes iron will.
A man needs control.
He needs rules.
He may play a role
But never the fool.
A man needs power.
He needs clout.
The boss will decide
Who’s in and who’s out.
A man needs the law.
He needs jail.
Show contempt for the judge
And buddy, you fail.
A man needs discipline,
Or he’ll never win!
A man must be punished,
Or else he’s finished!
			(Gradually becomes more excited)
A man needs to be whipped,
Or stripped,
Or squeezed,
Or teased,
Or spanked,
Or mocked,
Or clocked,
Or pinched,
Or kicked,
Or pricked,
Or beaten, beaten, beaten 
Till he’s black and blue.
And for two-hundred-seventy bucks an hour,
This man needs you.
