Way out in the wilds of Central Asia, on the Kazakh-Uzbek border, lies the toxic remains of a dying sea ... the Aral Sea. For thousands of years, this sea was a life-giver, bringing food, trade, and civilization. Covering an area the size of Ireland, it was the fourth largest freshwater lake in the world. But then, in the middle of the 20th Century, something happened. An irrigation project went wrong, depriving the sea of vital water. In its place came toxic chemicals, poisons, and shores of unbreathable dust. Today, the sea is so deadly it’s been called the Silent Chernobyl.
We humans have turned an ancient oasis to a modern desert ravaged by cancer-causing storms ...  this is the story of the Aral Sea.

I made a trio version of this flute duett.

My old friend Strootman Pianomonster (will post soon on https://soundcloud.com/stroot-246138153) sent me some of his baroque recordings on harpsichord. I've worked on one of them with all the Ruizzoid stuff you can hear, and even translated to Latin one of my old poems!

VOLO OSCULUM TUUM  /  I WANT YOUR KISS

 Volo saxum ad clamare.  /  I want a rock to cry on.  
 Ad gemere, quis saxum.  /  To moan, any rock.  

(Volo osculum tuum ad somniare.  /  I want your kiss to dream.  
 Ad vivere, nisi osculum tuum.  /  For living, just your kiss.)
  
Volo flammam ad queri.  /  I want a flame to scream.  
 Ad pati, quis flammam.  /  To suffer, any flame.  

(Volo osculum tuum…  /  I want your kiss... ) 

 Volo pugionem ad exspirare.  /  I want a dagger to expire.  
 Ad mori quis pugionem.  /  To die, any dagger.  

(Volo osculum tuum…  /  I want your kiss... )

Volo Osculum Tuum (with Strootman on harpsichord)

This song was inspired by a conversation with https://soundcloud.com/roger-b-train 
He had taken an amazing picture of a giant flock of crows in the sky. We were sharing thoughts of the symbolism of the crows at the end of summer. Parts of the lyrics are taken from the original chat. 
Thank you for listening :)

Lyrics:
"The crows will be coming again soon
Crops getting closer to be taken down 
Crazy sight to see day after day until solstice" (Rogers words)
"I hear, i can hear them coming
In my garden the harvest is done
Morning dew don´t vanish anymore
Mother nature ist tired
Light gets more pale and soon the dark days are there" (my words)
I´m still excited about the circle of the year from solstice to solstice
Crows will be coming soon
Foggy days, deep sun, long shadows
Old summer is like the last hug of a beloved grandma, 
We don´t want to let go. But we know she´ll be gone soon.

Thank You for 1500 plays! ❤️

When exercise in mixing bass changes into track ;) It's a kind of medieval/celtic triphop track. I've again returned to Irish Harp. Now there are 3 of them ;)

Imagine.... A medieval castle town stretching around the defensive walls. The girl around 18, with long hair getting out from home. She grabs basket and a shawl and runs outside. It's an early morning, the light is cold and it is a bit misty... she goes down the street close to the wall, she has the tight dress with more open bottom. She begin to dance... This is modern dance. Something between classical and jazz with modern additions of head and hands movement. When she dance more and more girls join her dance with simultaneous movements...

It's an anachronism like in "The Knight's Tale" dance scene:

This is my remix of a track from @archmageband2 called Workplace Challenges. It's my first time working with Rob Ulysses (@rob-ulysses) and Masha Solo (@masha-solo).

I built on the theme and concept that they had developed, but took this mix in a slightly different direction compared with their original piece which I hope you will be interested to also check out:
https://soundcloud.com/archmageband2/workplace-challenges-instrumental

I think my version here has maybe a bit of a darker vibe to it.

 It's been fun working with some new collaborators. We have more music in the works, so stay tuned!

There's a fantastic 70s leaning pop-rock album  Ticket to Shangri-La  released in 2023 (Young Gun Silver Fox) with a song called Starting Wars. I miss heard and mis-read the title as Starling Wars which seemed a great metaphor for something. It could have applied to a relationship - but the 2 wars going on became the theme

Starling Wars

You fly in to foul my nest 
Seeing red I puff out my chest
Aiming at your catacombs
Dropping all my guano bombs
Flit across and I peck at you
Cause my beliefs are the only truth
Starling wars it’s about pecking order 
Starling wars gonna bomb your son and daughter

I ruffle your feathers
You think that you’re better
Ethnically superior
The plumage of an emperor
Gonna peck my eye’s right out
Squawk about it loud and proud
Starling wars it’s about pecking order 
Starling wars gonna bomb your son and daughter

Em7 Dma7 Ami7 G Bb/C F F#m7 B

Underneath there’s the dove of peace
Peeking out at the busy streets
I Wrap your eggs neath protective wings
Drop a flower confess my sins
Fleeting thought it just flies away
Revenge is sweet gonna make you pay
Starling wars it’s about pecking order 
Starling wars gonna bomb your son and daughter

STARLING WARS

On The Run

eSTRANGEd couSINs is a project shaped by family, distance, and loss. Daniel grew up barely knowing his cousins Timmy and Kenny after his father left early in his life. While Daniel served in the military, Timmy and Kenny kept making music, and years passed without real contact.

After learning his father had died, Daniel reached out to Timmy. Their first deep conversation brought another heartbreak: Kenny had been killed in a motorcycle accident, and Timmy survived with serious injuries that stayed with him.

When they finally reunited, Timmy arrived with a thick notebook full of poems and songs written for his brother. The two walked to a dark boardwalk in the woods and played—Daniel on guitar, Timmy choosing pages by memory. Daniel recorded everything on his phone. The sound was raw and unpolished, but full of truth. Songs like “Let It Go,” “No Regrets,” “Wheels of Fate,” “Walk Upon Your Grave,” “Without You,” and “The Master of Pain” carried Timmy’s grief, love, and struggle to live with Kenny’s absence.

They spent years dreaming of creating more together. Daniel even wrote a full heavy album, hoping for another chapter. But that future changed when Daniel received the call that Timmy had passed away.

Though Timmy and Kenny are gone, their couSIN Daniel is still here, and the family line continues. eSTRANGEd couSINs now lives on as a dedication: a way to preserve Timmy’s voice, poetry, and spirit, and to let the world hear the heart behind their story.
