I knew I'd like this one. Everything this guy writes is Drake. Classical music is very relaxing. as always great stuff.

this is so beautiful and dark! great performance!

very nice orchestral piece . i love the depth in this soundtrack and the ambient atmosphere !

I love classical and this one is no exception. Love the high pitched vocals, very very interesting..

Exquisite! It's not just that the lyrics are refreshing. There is also dynamism and a dramatic complexity brought out really well by the performers.

Very nice! I listened with great pleasure. Thank you.

Ephemeral Bloom

Happy Ending

Une de mes nombreuses histoires à fondre de plaisir, racontée par le très talentueux Moussa Lebkiri (comédien, conteur, écrivain, metteur en scène) qui m'a fait l'honneur de lui prêter ses voix.

HISTOIRE DU BONHOMME DE NEIGE QUI VOULAIT MAIGRIR
Par un beau soir d'hiver, un petit garçon se promenait tout seul en dehors de son village de montagne. En arrivant dans un pré, il entendit de petits sanglots. Il se demanda d'où cela pouvait venir. Comme il vit une haute et large silhouette au milieu du pré, il s'en approcha car c'était de là que venaient les sanglots. Arrivant près de la silhouette, il s'aperçut que c'était un bonhomme de neige, au moins deux fois plus grand que lui, qui pleurait.
— "Pourquoi pleures-tu comme ça ? demanda le petit garçon, un grand bonhomme de neige comme toi, ça ne pleure pas !
— Moi si, répondit le bonhomme de neige d'une petite voix mouillée. — Pourquoi pleures-tu ? redemanda le petit garçon.
— C'est à cause de ma taille. Chaque hiver c'est pareil : des enfants s'amusent en me faisant avec de la neige. Ils prennent beaucoup de neige, en font un gros tas, me mettent un vieux chapeau troué sur la tête, deux cailloux qui me font mal à la place 1des yeux, et une carotte même pas fraîche pour le nez, et ils trouvent ça beau. Mais moi, je me trouve gros et laid."
Et là-dessus, le bonhomme de se remettre à pleurer davantage.
— "Mais arrête de pleurer, lui dit l'enfant, tu vas finir par fondre !
— Fondre ? dit le bonhomme, mais c'est merveilleux ! C'est justement ce que je veux, perdre tous ces kilos qui me font ressembler à un éléphant ! Ouin ! Ouin !
— Attends ! dit l'enfant, si c'est maigrir que tu veux, je peux t'aider."
L'enfant se met à creuser un peu les hanches du bonhomme de neige.
— "Hi ! hi ! hi ! tu me chatouilles, dit le bonhomme en se trémoussant.
— Arrête de bouger, dit l'enfant. Si tu crois que c'est facile de te refaire une beauté... Là, comme ça, ça te plaît ?
— Non, je trouve que mes jambes sont encore trop grosses.
— Bon, attends."
Et l'enfant d'affiner les jambes comme un vrai sculpteur. — "Etlà?
— Ça va pour les jambes, mais regarde mes pieds, on dirait deux gros cochons en train de dormir !
— Comment les veux-tu ?
— Beaucoup plus fins, et bien dessinés."
Et l'enfant de s'appliquer encore pendant cinq bonnes minutes.
Tout à coup, alors qu'il avait presque terminé, il sentit le bonhomme vaciller doucement, puis basculer d'avant en arrière.
— "Attention ! cria l'enfant, tu vas tomber !"
Mais trop tard, le bonhomme tomba de tout son poids sur le petit enfant.
— "Eh ! relève-toi, cria l'enfant, tu me donnes froid dans le dos !
— Excuse-moi, répondit le bonhomme, mais je ne sais pas encore très bien marcher.
— Ce qu'il te faudrait, dit l'enfant en essayant de se dégager, c'est une bonne canne. Attends, je vais t'en chercher une."
Quelques instants plus tard, il revint avec une solide branche de bois mort, et la donna au bonhomme qui put enfin se relever.
— "Merci, dit le bonhomme, grâce à toi, je vais maintenant pouvoir voyager dans les montagnes qui sont si belles, surtout pendant l'hiver ! Au revoir ! Je ne t'oublierai jamais.
— Au revoir, répondit le petit garçon un peu triste de se séparer si vite de son nouvel ami, mais fais attention aux avalanches, tu risques de reprendre du poids !
— Ne t'inquiète pas, dit le bonhomme, j'ai bien vu comment tu as fait. Maintenant, je connais la recette. Merci pour tout, et adieu !"
Quelques jours plus tard, des hommes revinrent tout affolés au village. Ils disaient avoir vu l'abominable homme des neiges, un monstre de plus de deux mètres de hauteur, large comme une armoire à glace, et qu'il laissait des traces dans la neige tellement profondes qu'on pouvait s'y enfoncer jusqu'au genou. Le petit garçon souriait discrètement dans son coin, en pensant au bonheur de son ami qui marchait enfin libre et heureux dans ses belles montagnes.

Myckaël Marcovic, 1986.

Another project created in 2022 but it wasn't finished, there was little left, just the end and a good mastering. This project got lost among the others, and I completely forgot about it, but in October I found it, finished it and released it on the 20th. I hope you enjoy! :)

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
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.

LYRICS
Pain and release.
Torture and tease.
Worry and please.
I will fulfill your deepest needs.
You strip, I sneer.
I whip, you leer.
The ritual humiliation 
Is sweeping the nation.
And don’t you just love it, my dear.
I pinch, you groan.
You flinch, I’m stone.
I slap, you sigh.
You snap, I lie.
It’s so excruciating,
We should be celebrating,
And don’t you ever do it alone.
My pleasure, your pain.
Your leisure, my gain.	
It hurts so exquisitely.
I’m so glad you could visit me.
Would you like to come over again?
Pain and release.
Torture and tease.
I will fulfill your deepest needs.

Three Way - Act II. Safe Word: Domme’s Aria: Pain and Release (Mezzo-Soprano Aria)

Vītulārī

I began writing the harmony and the main guitar riffs of this song right on Blackout Tuesday. Watching antiracism protests around the world, really got me inspired. Hence the title of the song.
