These are most of the tracks I listened to today. (Including one of mine...sometimes listening to your tracks as well as mine helps an otherwise sour mood - which I seem to be in lately.)

D'après le film " The Man from Earth " de Richard Schenkman . On a remplacé le personnage principal par un tueur professionnel 😱 !!! 
Based on the film "The Man from Earth" by Richard Schenkman . We replaced the main character with a professional killer 😱 !!!! 

Composer : Philippe SEGUINARD 🚲

Lyrics :
Il paraît qu'il n'y a pas de sot métier
Le mien c'est tout simplement de tuer
Je suis l'meilleur dans ma catégorie
J'ai ôté la vie dans tous les pays
Je travaille pour tous les gouvernements
Les rois , les riches maffieux les présidents
Je suis très cher mais je suis efficace
Quand j'élimine je ne laisse pas de trace

Oh les scènes de crimes !

J'ai liquidé pas mal de vrais méchants
Mais comme j'assassine pour le plus offrant
Je ferme aussi les yeux des faux gentils
Car pour moi toutes les vies ont un prix

Oh les scènes de crimes !

Je frappe tel un virus sans distinction
Je n'ai pas de lois pas de religions
Je suis bien né avant toutes ces chimères
J'ai 14 000 ans et des poussières

Holocène de crime

Personne n'a jamais vu mon visage
Je suis une ombre un fantôme sans âge
Je suis un salaud dix fois millénaire
Toujours debout sur cette pauvre Terre
Pourtant je peux mourir à chaque instant
C'est pour vieillir que je mets plus de temps
Je sais que c'est très difficile à croire
Les preuves sont dans vos livres d'histoires

Holocène de crime

They say there's no such thing as a fool's job
Mine is simply to kill
I'm the best in my category
I've taken lives in every country

I work for every government
Kings, rich mafiosi, presidents
I'm very expensive but I'm efficient
When I eliminate I leave no trace

Oh the crime scenes!

I've taken out a lot of real bad guys
But since I murder for the highest bidder
I also close my eyes to false good guys
Because for me, all lives have a price

I strike like a virus without distinction
I have no laws, no religions
I was born before all these chimeras
I'm 14,000 years old and counting

Holocene of crime

No one has ever seen my face
I'm a shadow, an ageless ghost
I'm a bastard ten thousand years old
Still standing on this poor Earth

Yet I could die at any moment
It takes me longer to grow old
I know it's hard to believe
The proof is in your history books

Holocene of crime

Holocène De Crimes   TRANSLATED

Money for Charon.

Between 2016 and 2017 I composed some melodies inspired by Greek mythology.

Of all of them, only one remains on my blog here: Pegasus wings 

https://on.soundcloud.com/c7uzivsvy4BQzD536

I am encouraged to publish another one inspired by the ferryman who takes souls to the underworld after dying...paying a coin.

The figure of the protagonist himself makes the music somewhat dark, an effect achieved with a synthesizer from the DRC app that I have not used many times.

Money For Charon (Original 2017)

An easy listening and uplifting electro-pop track.
I used for the first time the Logic Pro "Session Player" automated track on bass, piano and drums, that are following a specific chord progression. It may sounds like an easy job but I can tell you is not :-)
I hope you enjoy it and reach a nice ruby mood like the lady in the picture.
Thanks for listening

Ruby Mood

A little ditty partly inspired by the events of this past summer here in the UK but mostly just about polarised society, the constant stream of misinformation we're all bombarded with and the state of permanent anger that everyone seems to live in these days.

Verse 1

So this is modern life.
Sitting on a train, staring at a screen,
Getting really angry, listen to a stranger, tell you about something that they haven't even seen.

So this is modern life.
Head up in the cloud, don't believe a thing,
You're probably being lied to, by that angry stranger,
Motivation's murky making money from your dreams.

Well this ain't the future I remember being sold...
I must be getting old.

Chorus

Buy, subscribe, listen, watch,
Worry, panic, sleepless, lost,
Clicks, likes, follows, the game,
Lonely, withdrawn, quiet, pain.

Eat, sleep, stream, repeat,
Alone, cutoff, self-defeat,
Consume, collect, gamble, spend,
Hollow, empty, collapse, the end.

Verse 2

So this is modern life.
Must be right or left, hate the other side,
Blind to other viewpoints, listen to the leader,
Blame a group of others for the problems in your tribe.

So this is modern life.
Sitting in a truck, heading off to war,
Not sure why you're fighting, something that the leader
said in some long boring speech you listened to before.

Now your future has been sold...
And you won't be getting old.

Chorus

Buy, subscribe, listen, watch,
Worry, panic, sleepless, lost,
Clicks, likes, follows, the game,
Lonely, withdrawn, quiet, pain.

Eat, sleep, stream, repeat,
Alone, cutoff, self-defeat,
Consume, collect, gamble, spend,
Hollow, empty, collapse, the end.

Modern Life

Arene is bit of a personal change up exploring an older love of mine of Chillstep combined with a simple elegant touch of some symphonic elements.

Stranger

As a stranger i arrived
As a stranger i went 							


As a stranger i arrived
As a stranger i went
From anywhere close to somewhere
And then back to anywhere again

Well I could tell a thousand tales
Well i could tell a thousand lies

I could tell  a thousand dreams
That might not be true
Could formulate a thousand lines
You won’t believe that they’re true

Well, I could tell…
I could run a hundred thousand miles and more…

As a stranger i arrived
As a stranger i went 							

As a stranger i arrived
As a stranger i went
From anywhere close to somewhere
And then back to anywhere again…

- solo -

As a stranger i arrived
As a stranger i went
From anywhere close to somewhere
And then back to anywhere again

One thing asking myself,
Has it been true ?
Did i really run a thousand miles
Just to get hold of you ?		
One thing that i must ask again
Has that been true ?
Did i really run a thousand miles
Just to get hold of you ?				

Well, i could tell…
Well, i could tell…

Did i really run a thousand miles
Just to get hold of you ?
Did i really write a thousand lines
Then to get rid of you ?
I could run a hundred thousand miles
Well, i could run a hundred thousand miles and more
With a stone in my shoe…

戻れない過去とか
囲い込めない未来に

きっと未だ　寄り添って　「今」はゆく

止められない僕らが

流れの意味　ゆく末を　知ろうとしてる

“Finding YOUR WAY does not mean that you always know where you are going. The important thing is that you know how to find your way HOME…”.

“TAKE ME HOME” feels nostalgic and familiar in its essence as the soundscape and lyrics remind you that our biggest quest is to uncover our truest selves and discover where we belong. Home is 
where you feel the most comfort and the most inspired, and when you arrive at that place, you'll never want to leave again.

Take Me Home

A personal song about loss, farewell and the certainty that you will see each other again someday!

I Will See You Again

SONG NOTES AND LYRICS: 
It's nice to be recording again with a view to completing my 5th Solo album over the next few months. I decided to go with just guitar and vocals for this song, which I think best reflects the lyrics. For those interested in how I record my acoustic guitar, I have used a slightly different technique for this song, using a blend of stereo small diaphragm microphones, together with Direct Input from my Taylor electro-acoustic guitar, played through a mixer into my audio interface. Hope you like it.

LYRICS:
I watch the dawn approaching 
The earth beneath my feet 
Spins in all it’s silence 
To the sound ….. of my heart beat

And over the horizon
These colours fill the skies 
I breathe in this morning air
Thankful for my eyes 

For I am but a fellow traveller
As we circle round the sun
For all this life we ever know 
We travel all as one

I watch the dusk approaching
The earth beneath my feet 
Spins into the moonlight 
To the sound ….of my heart beat

And I gaze up in wonder 
Beyond these starlit skies 
I breathe in this cool night air
Thankful for my eyes 

For I am but a fellow traveller
As we circle round the sun
For all this life we ever know 
We travel all as one

Lyrics:
Mannnnn, this was the summer that was.
In the Pacific NW, we do what it does.
Summer 24 we spreadin the love.
Family Adventures as we rise above.

A crazy RV trip, wrote a song about this.
A 10 year anniversary of me and Crissy’s mar ridge.
A 30 year reunion of my highschool.
The Dodomyte Posse reliving the old school.

As we all get together cause the old school rules.
Writin this song as an old school jewel.

Now sit back, relax, take a trip with me.
About the summer that was to this old school beat.
Haha me and Lydia flippin the rhymes.
Let’s relive this summer one  more time.

Me and my dad cruisin down the street.
Groovin to the sound with the summer beat.
Windows rolled down, feel the summer breeze.
Life in the rhythm takin it with ease.

Me and my dad got that beat on repeat.
Ridin round the town with that summer heat.
Feel the vibe, feel the flow, bass so deep.
Life in the rhythm takin it with ease.

My highschool class had a 30 year reunion.
Half my Dodomtye Posse showed for the fun.
Me, Rachel and Jim, like an old rerun.
Seein old friends, what have they done?

Every 10 years me and Ethan Hoyt.
Relive an old prank he pulled.
Put porn pictures up in my locker,
As my highschool crush saw them, punk mother fucker.

Seein Quinn Irvine, still livin the player life
At 48 years old, dude was hittin on my wife.
But it’s all good, all the barbies at the party
Puttin on airs, tryin to act like smarties.

Some classmates said hi, didn’t know who they were.
Guess I’ve aged less than many of them, word!

Me and my dad cruisin down the street.
Groovin to the sound with the summer beat.
Windows rolled down, feel the summer breeze.
Life in the rhythm takin it with ease.

Me and my dad got that beat on repeat.
Ridin round the town with that summer heat.
Feel the vibe, feel the flow, bass so deep.
Life in the rhythm takin it with ease.

20 years my wife has been with me.
In August our 10 year wedding anniversary.
Had a bash at Skate Haven Farm.
That’s our home out in the country.

Once again, half the Dodomyte Posse,
Came out to support my wife and me.
Same best man Jim along with Sonny,
Same maid of honor, Jennifer, and Amy.

Reliving our wedding anniversary 10 years ago to the day.
With our family and friends on that hot summer day.
Had the same pastor and the DJ.
Mike Matousek, Nate Heath, Korey the MC.

Did a little dance to a song I created.
Crissy made a speech and we all related.

Me and my dad cruisin down the street.
Groovin to the sound with the summer beat.
Windows rolled down, feel the summer breeze.
Life in the rhythm takin it with ease.

Me and my dad got that beat on repeat.
Ridin round the town with that summer heat.
Feel the vibe, feel the flow, bass so deep.
Life in the rhythm takin it with ease.

So 2024 was the summer that was.
Meetin old friends, celebratin milestones.
Celebratin life as we all get older.
Live up every summer until it’s all over.

Me and my dad cruisin down the street.
Groovin to the sound with the summer beat.
Windows rolled down, feel the summer breeze.
Life in the rhythm takin it with ease.

Me and my dad got that beat on repeat.
Ridin round the town with that summer heat.
Feel the vibe, feel the flow, bass so deep.
Life in the rhythm takin it with ease.

The Summer That Was (feat. Lydia) (Prod. Auditory Ecstacy)

Touch And Go

Pour affronter le morne mois de novembre, nous vous proposons une chanson légère et sautillante qui parlera à votre âme d'enfant!
To face the gloomy month of November, we offer you a light and lively song that will speak to your inner child!
(PS In France , fairground carousels offer children the chance to grab a pompom. Whoever catches it wins a free ride!)

MICKEY 'S TAIL
In the cinema of childhood
one can get bored hard
But sometimes, a lucky moment—
A day at the fairground.
Raising and lowering the plane,
With an easy lever,
The precious rag in our hands,
And our eyes light up.

All our victories are trivial,
But what joy in that sensation,
taking oneself for the hero,
feeling like Santos-Dumont.
I grabbed the Mickey’s tail,
This time , I did it,
Snagged the Grail, the prize,
No more spinning in circles.

At the age of love’s parades,
Turning and dancing in discos,
All the dancers spinning round,
Looking to make a conquest.
beating around the bush
Awkward and clumsy,
when smiles finally meet,
 The ship can sail.

All our stories are temporary,
But what joy in that sensation,
feeling handsome in the mirror,
feeling like Alain Delon.
I grabbed the Mickey’s tail,
This time , I did it,
Snagged the Grail, the prize,
No more spinning in circles.

Life, it’s a true lottery,
The wheel turns and leaves us dizzy
Losers or superheroes,
We swing from laughter to tears.
But when I’m with you,
I’m five years old, I feel that joy
Of a child who’s struck it rich,
Who’s just grabbed the moon 

All our memories are illusions,
But what joy in that sensation,
Skipping alone down the sidewalks,
Feeling like Patrick Dupont.
I grabbed the Mickey’s tail,
This time , I did it,
Snagged the Grail, the prize,
No more spinning in circles.

This song began with David, who wrote it on the guitar, synth, and bass over a programmed beat he created. He and Josh met more than two months ago and decided to do a collaboration, based on mutual enjoyment of and respect for each other's music. Dave had this song pretty much fleshed out, although it was still a skeleton when he offered it to Josh, who, of course, got the rest of the Eclectic Collective involved. 

  Dave asked us all to compose our own parts for the song, so we all got to work right away doing that. We all realized that the first order of business would be to get a real beat on this, so Ken accomplished that task with some dynamic, Eastern inspired drums and percussion, which he plays throughout the song. JJ then stepped in and added his best eastern flute magic. Stephen was next with the perfect-vibe sitar you hear in the first two sections. 

  Josh came next to add his five-string fretless bass to the mix, augmenting David's high, staccato bass with his deep, low tone bass. Then, for the third section, where David's Gilmore-esque guitar solo resides, Josh drops out, allowing for Dave's awesome bass playing in that section. However, Josh does come in again towards the end, in the final section, too. Also, in that section, Tez dropped an augmented, harmonic, electric fire, complementary guitar part. Then, David's frequent collaborator and friend Ron added some well blended, ethereal synth to the first section, too.

  Once we had the instrumental parts pretty much laid down, we began to discuss getting a woman to sing on this, as David was inspired by The Great Gig in the Sky, by Pink Floyd, and we all agreed. Who we found to do it actually blew all of our minds. JJ, being familiar with her music, contacted Elpi first, and we were all lucky enough that she agreed to do it. Having heard Mediterranean music all her life in Greece, she tapped into what her husband said were her "ancient Greek roots," for her spectacular vocal performance. She finds all the modal notes and places them perfectly throughout her sections. 

  But before we were done, Mark came through with some really striking talking drum parts in the first two sections, too. Once we had everything in the can, David took over, both with some masterful editing and production, and with the balanced, dynamic mix. The mix was a formidable task, but he did it with considerable skill, also taking everyone's opinions into account, which is a talent in and of itself. When he was done with the mix, he turned it over to Stephen for the mastering, which the latter did to everyone's satisfaction, as always.

  This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with David, Elpi, and Ron, and we all hope it's the first of many, as we welcome them into the EC family. They all have some wonderful music on their pages, too, so do yourself a favor and check out all of them, as well. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Le Petit Prince  - The Fox

J'ai voulu reprendre cette magnifique chanson de Julien Clerc.
Un classique de la chanson française, probablement inconnu à l'étranger.
La mélodie, les accords, le sens, tout correspond à ce que je cherche à composer moi-même.
Cette version se veut un peu plus dramatique en accord avec le texte 
(translated below)

----
"À quoi sert une chanson si elle est désarmée?"
Me disaient des chiliens, bras ouverts, poings serrés
Comme une langue ancienne
Qu'on voudrait massacrer
Je veux être utile
À vivre et à rêver

Comme la lune fidèle à n'importe quel quartier
Je veux être utile à ceux qui m'ont aimé
À ceux qui m'aimeront
Et à ceux qui m'aimaient
Je veux être utile
À vivre et à chanter

Ah-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la

Dans n'importe quel quartier d'une lune perdue
Même si les maîtres parlent et qu'on ne m'entend plus
Même si c'est moi qui chante
À n'importe quel coin de rue
Je veux être utile
À vivre et à rêver

Ah-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la

"À quoi sert une chanson si elle est désarmée?"
Me disaient des chiliens, bras ouverts, poings serrés
Comme une langue ancienne
Qu'on voudrait massacrer
Je veux être utile
À vivre et à rêver
Comme la lune fidèle à n'importe quel quartier
Je veux être utile à ceux qui m'ont aimé
À ceux qui m'aimeront
Et à ceux qui m'aimaient
Je veux être utile
À vivre et à chanter

"À quoi sert une chanson si elle est désarmée?"

-----
“What good is a song if it's disarmed?”
Chileans said to me, arms open, fists clenched
Like an ancient language
That one would like to massacre
I want to be useful
To live and to dream

Like the moon faithful to any neighborhood
I want to be useful to those who have loved me
To those who will love me
And to those who loved me
I want to be useful
To live and to sing

Ah-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

In any quarter of a lost moon
Even if the masters speak and I'm no longer heard
Even if I'm the one singing
On any street corner
I want to be useful
To live and to dream

Ah-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

“What good is a song if it's disarmed?”
Chileans said to me, arms open, fists clenched
Like an ancient language
That someone would like to massacre
I want to be useful
To live and to dream
Like the moon faithful to any neighborhood
I want to be useful to those who have loved me
To those who will love me
And to those who loved me
I want to be useful
To live and to sing

“What good is a song if it's unarmed?”

HONEY MAN (Messy Mix) tribute to DanLeMiel (Collab with... see description)

Another really fun collab with the legendary @TexMex-Shaman!

I'll often sketch out music ideas and compose midi melodies on the ipad as a first step, but took a different approach and constructed this one entirely in Ableton Live which I have been transitioning more of my process to lately.

After building the foundation I sent it to Stephen and he added some suuuper creative guitar parts that really build the atmosphere and take it to a whole other level. Very happy how this came out, hope you'll enjoy it!

Primeval (a Texas Tea production) - w/ TexMex Shaman

Another one done from the album Wou-Wou & the Wormling, Bitzone, Stricknice, and I have been working on for almost 5 years now! You can definitely hear some of those 2020 themes in these songs. I feel like the world is starting to change and new themes will start emerging, so we had better finish up soon, lol. There are definitely two more songs from the set still to be released, and maybe a bonus track, and then we will be done…It has been a dream to work with these guys! I wonder what's next?

May everyone who’s looking, find an incredible team of musicians to work with.

Lyrics

Yo, this is your daily routine rap
4:30 already and it’s time to hit snooze cause you know waking up is wack
5:30 already and I am looking for excuse to get right back in the sack  
Gotta brush the teeth and I can’t forget the gums everyday I’m fighting that plaque 
Heading downstairs I’m already on the run to eat breakfast and pack a snack
Next to get dressed I always put the layers on to keep warm yet still look like a mac
Then I’m out the door one hour past dawn to get to work without catching no slack

Wake up
Time to wake up

Yo, time to hit the routine again
3:30 already and I should be off the clock but my boss said I had to work late
4:30 already and I gotta bust out daycare can no longer wait 
Gotta hit the drive through and get the kid a snack it’s been 2 hours since she last ate
CDs in the player for an hour of tunes you know rush hour traffic don’t abate
When I get home I take the dog for a walk so he can find a pole to finally liberate 
Then it’s time to cook dinner got no time to work out so you know I’m gonna pack on that weight

Wake up
Time to wake up

Yo, we’re not done yet
8:30 already need to get the kid ready for bed but she  still wants to play
9:30 already and kid still isn’t ready now we’re yelling cause there’s no other way
I wanna keep my cool but I’ve had it up to here and I just want to get on with the day
Dishes keep pilling and the laundry needs drying and the mess needs to all be put away
Instead I check out, binge a show, and stay up late even though tomorrow I’ll have to pay  
Then I fall asleep on the couch just to do it all again it’s all just a big cliche. 

Wake up
Time to wake up

It’s time to wake the fuck up

Wake Up!

Stricknice, Bitzone, Wou-Wou & The Wormling, and the Couch King - Wake Up!
