That fragile moment of freedom in between the notes! 

Long time did not capture my Cordoba KOA Edition nylon-string guitar. That day found guitar with a broken string, but it still had 5 more, so did not stop the inspiration. Backing track is tweaked NI Picked Nylon picking and Korg Gadget project on iPhoneX. Played guitar, recorded  sound in parallel into direct interface and a also room mic to capture the atmos and happy-little-accidents. Mastered with UA Oxide Tape, IK, and FabFilters in Live 11. New track will go to Uplifting Chillout album titled "Love", some day, maybe. TNX!

Polybrute, Arturia MiniMoogV for basses, Buchla Easel 208C on leads. Mastered with FabFilter, UAD Oxide Tape, IK One, but different mixing chains and mastering. Of course you would say, - "all your sht sounds the same to me"! If you do, I'll be pleased taking it as a complement :) Its great to achieve some consistency in any crazy things we all do. May get there one day. Stay creative!

One by One 

Words that hit like on anvils
some others as light as feathers 
those that get lost in the haze
words that take me to the moon 

i follow the moves of your mouth
your full lips , colour of plum 
i'm staring at you , i'm listening to you
i drink in  your words 
one by one 

words that we say , in front of our judges
Yes your honor 
i swear it ! 
dreamed words from a pure being
nasties ones, i really don't care

I follow the moves of your mouth 
i'm staring at you , i'm listening to you

i follow the moves of your mouth
your full lips , colour of plum 
i'm staring at you , i'm listening to you
i drink in  your words

Rich Man Lyrics

This one is called Rich Man. In our last song, the poor man was trying to get by with limited funds. In this one, our hero is just enjoying life with whatever he can. He's happy just living life.

Lyrics;
I walk in old shoes
Drive on old wheels
Don't have much money
But that's not how I feel
Cause I'm a rich man

I do what I need
And that's getting me by
Got two feet on the ground
And my Head in the sky

I travel lightly
Not much to my name
But I've got all I need
Just the same
I'm a rich man

Wherever I'm at
Is where I want to be
And I'm living my life
Like this world's made for me
I'm a rich man

I have my friends
And my family
They're all the best people
And they're rich just like me


I've traveled the highways
In sunshine and rain
Slept in a boxcar
Of many a train
I've loved and lost
And I still feel the pain
But life is for living
And I can't complain

I don't need a thing
To prove my success
Nobody out there
I need to impress
But I'm a rich man

I do what I need
And that gets me by
Two feet on the ground
My head in the sky

I might walk in old shoes
and drive on old wheels
Not much money
But that's not how I feel
Cause I'm a rich man

I'm a rich man
a rich man
a rich man ...

Rich Man

Want To Sleep Like Mud

No matter how fast you move, she is still far away... why?

Lets face it, we all love the music we make and share. This is my own latest fave :)

Fun fact, in childhood I was always impressed by those pianists walking blazing fast thru the keys. Here in the bridge (1:41-2:14)I "did it". Not on a piano keys. On Push 2. Also put into a scale. Quickly running up and down on 5x5 grid ... not really knowing what I'm doing :) Dreams come true, she is getting near! 

Lead synth is Arturia OP-Xa VST also played on Push 2 pads, no programming. Some Polybrute, few Pigments lines, and IK Syntronik. With lotsa FabFilter Pro-C, Pro-Q3, Timeless. Bassline is 3 Arturia MiniMoogs. Mastered with UAD, IK, and FabFilters. Cover art: a personal star and road to Lick Observatory, California, 20 miles from house. Thanks!

✨ Can you hear the nebular sounds? ✨ Analogue grit and silk from Korg ARP2600m arping and Arturia Polybrute on the lead voice. 

Recorded ARP2600m live by tweaking 5-7 sliders, then placed 8-bar parts to L/R channels in Ableton for more spacial movement. Lead tune is played on Polybrute's keyboard. Designed two Polybrute A/B presets and manually tweaked with Morphee controller. While DAW is playing pre-automated glide and filter sweeps. Arturia Pigments for colored pads and OB-Xa for nebular glitter. Basslines are Arturia Mini and Moog UADx. FabFilter Saturn2 saturation, ProQ3/C/L2, Arturia Intensity/Eternity, and Moogerfooger MF-104S. As always the new and a dozen other tracks are downloadable on my accounts, thanks!

Impression

Endless Light

My first ever recorded guitar instrumental, guys... well, some years ago :) Come as it was played originally, with some subtle 2016 remastering. One day I played this light piano back loop and then improvised the tune with my Cordoba Nylon String guitar. Added few lines of bass, flute, strings, and percs in the Logic Pro. All played on M-Audio Axiom Pro keyboard connected to Mac. Cordoba guitar (on the cover art) recorded through MBox2 interface, I think, or maybe embedded Macbook mic. Track comes from the older hard drive, with as-is guitar impromptu recording, meaning a vintage feeling. Meaning extra charm, right? 

I posted the track celebration celebrating 5,000 SC plays. Way beyond 3 Million by now somehow, woah! Thank you!

In My Mind (Original Cordoba Mix)

Recalling some tequila, love words and more with them in that Ibiza bar, I wondered: “What if Pink Floyd met the spirit of Camarón de la Isla… in my bedroom?” I used lots of guitars, basses, etc. on a 12/8 beat, to enclose 3/4, 6/4 & 8/8 rhythms along.

Letra / Translated Lyrics: EL POZO DE TU AMOR  /  THE WELL OF YOUR LOVE

Fui a abrir el grifo, estaba sediento,  /  I turned on the tap, I was thirsty,
fui a abrir el grifo de tu amor.  /  I turned on the tap of your love.
Fui a abrir el grifo, necesitaba hacerlo,  /  I turned on the tap, I needed to do it,
fui a abrir el grifo de tu amor.  /  I turned on the tap of your love.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el grifo de tu amor.  /  I needed the trap of your love.

Fui a bajar al pozo, me estaba muriendo,  /  I was going into the well, I was dying,
fui a bajar al pozo de tu amor.  /  I was going into the well of your love.
Fui a bajar al pozo, y me caí dentro,  /  I was going into the well, and fell inside,
fui a bajar al pozo de tu amor.  /  I was going into the well of your love.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el pozo de tu amor.  /  I needed the well of your love.

Por bajar al pozo, yo me caí dentro  /  Because of going into the well, I fell inside
y no quiero que nadie llore por mis lamentos  /  and I don’t want anybody to cry for my laments

Caí… por ti.  /  I fell … for you.
Caí… caí… caí por ti.  /  I fell … fell … fell for you.
Caí… a tu pozo, caí por ti.  /  I fell … into your well, fell for you.
Caí… caí… caí… caí a tu pozo por ti.  /  I fell … fell … fell … fell into your well for you.
Caí.  /  I fell.

Me he caído al pozo, y ahora que estoy dentro  /  I have fallen into the well, and now I’m inside
veo que se ha secado nuestro amor.  /  I see our love has dried up.
Vine a beber al pozo, pero el pozo está seco,  /  I came to drink at the well, but the well is dry,
veo que se ha secado nuestro amor.  /  I see our love has dried up.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el pozo de tu amor.  /  I needed the well of your love.

Enjoy the mini Indie Disco Dance SYNTHS-phony of grooves and vibes! Yes, it is short by the design. Orders to make it longer are not longer accepted :P  What can you do in 3 minutes, you cannot do in a half?

30 seconds "Speaker Dust Cleaner", folks. Quickly wipes the dust from your studio monitors, headphones and/or sub-woofer 1.5 feet in diameter. Guaranteed :) It's designed to be half-a-minute short. Same time, it indeed has intro, verse, chorus, bridge and outro. Played with ~20 Korg and MiniMoog synths lines and some specks of my Fender Stratocaster guitar. The Groove Surfer is a full original mix (not preview or teaser ;) 

Available for licensing. For example, a commercial for "world goes to a drain", - crazy, risky and "one way" by definition as surfing. You can only enjoy a quick ride and only hope to get there :)

Cheers!
Sam.

Jamn' my Fender Strat the other day, found some nice chords progression. Built something around it same day, using LogicX on Mac. Unrefined and unpolished playing, guys. Layered bass, rhythm and played impromptu solo over. I dug up the rack from a hard-drive, so this couple years recording comes as-is, no refinments. Contains pure inspiration with the mistakes provided :)   Juss having some fun...  :D

Thank you for all for the AMAZING feedback here - Sam PROCK.

This is the Ambient take for my Time Speck Open Collab. Please read and download stems here:
https://soundcloud.com/samprock/sam-prock-time-speck

More reflective and subtle atmos here, can be more suitable as a backtrack. Has no original Spoken and the all instruments are more verby/ambient. Hope it inspires you for yet another Spoken Word or improve instrumentation on guitar, piano or else. I just rearranged the original. In this cut the Cello part an intro. The mid space of the track, starting at 0:40-0:50 and going to outro at 2:40, is the place to run your new ART over. It can be additionally looped. Let me know it need different rearrangement to fit your take. I will be more than happy to do it! :D

The Crystal Ripples SYNTH-phony is dedicated to Planet Earth survival awareness and to everyone making Ripples in the cold blob if ice humanity getting itself into. Thank you for warming up the Climate between Humans and saving Polar Ice-packs too.

This is my contribution to Climate Change collab playlist on Silent Zen group:  soundcloud.com/silent-zen/sets/climate-change

Musically here... I just play what I feel and like, like many. Translating _it_ into the best sound I could do at the moment, hoping to let out some of grooves and vibes boiling my head constantly. Might be messy, bumpy, puzzling, but this is what it is. By design. Crystal Ripples continues my "Impressionism in Music" series. I love to induce and provoke, rather than impose. All for creative listening experience, so we collab, co-create.... Thank you.

Fender Stratocaster finger picking and (slightly) distorted basslines and twangs. Tones are using Line 6 hardware Pod XT. Post Line6 and IK Multimedia Amplitube.  Korg Synths, including Gadget tool Brussels, which solemnly soloing at 0:50. All synths sounds transitions achieved by playing physical knobs on my Arturia controller. All 37 lines of guitars, perc, synth total are assembled in Ableton Live 9 and mastered with IK Multimedia.

Original mix. Intense sadness on uplifting S.P.irals... yeah... 
Happy Piano Day 2017! soundcloud.com/silent-zen-play/sets/silent-zen-elite-piano

Piano sound only. This will be one of a kind for me. Korg, Ableton Live 9 and IK Multimedia mastering (with hammering and atmos "mud" are intentional). I'm only consistent with in-consistency of my music, sorry about that :)   

3/4, 100bpm. I have made a sheet music PDF for it, also Guitar Pro GPX format, and midi - PM me if anything. 

Cover art is a fragment of S.P. cover for Van Gogh's Starry Night, my fav paining of all times. Acrylic on canvas, circa '00s.

Spirals

🌺 ⚡  "... Imagine waking up in a tent (you are at Coachella, Woodstock, Burning Man ...) Early morning. Festive & groovy day is ahead of you. Nature is waking-up, sun is rising. Late-night DJ is still playing bad ass bass groove .... Someone is taking a flute from hippie bag, with a Peace sign drawn with ball pens .... Someone is reaching for the guitar, trying to grind teeth of the Black Fender Strat for breakfast ... All become alive ... Full day is ahead of you. Full life is ahead of you... " ✌

☮ ~ Flower Power ~ We All Need Some <3 ~ The Hippies Were Right ~ ☮

To teleport to 60's even faster, when Robert Moog was inventing Model D, I played MiniMoog, Moog Modular (and other synths by Arturia and Korg). Played my blue Fender Strat to signify the times, when Jimi Hendrix was grinding his teeth over his black one. Pushing flowers to the guns with Electronic and Psychedelic Rock is still needed. Imagined all thru my prism of future Deep Disco and Indie Dance vibe. Drums and all prod done in Ableton Live, mastering with IK Multimedia tools. 

Cover art is my casual drawing in ArtRage with Apple Pen on iPad.

Prockjets (Singles Collection)

In childhood we were watching thru the stars with my school bud. Exiting atmosphere, riding deep and cold vacuum (and I don't mean a vacuum cleaner :) ... mentally expanding our presence to far outer-space. Until  rock comes up to your throat. Thinking, - How huge the whole thing is?

Stargaze is dedicated to great artist and friend Gary Miles, Anomon @gary-courtland-miles

Musically, keep pursue Impressionism in music. Might be to complex to some or too simple to others, not the point. Some shorter strokes or deep long waves. With all one intention - let you co-create while listen. 

All sounds Korg Gadget. Production and mastering Ableton Live. The Stargaze will become part of my future Electronic Impressions album along with these tracks so far:

This track is dedicated to our cat Max 🐱  Real hunter, half stray/ferret cat, brave character. We did not buy or adopt him. Young fella adopted us, coming one time to stay for good. Cleaned two blocks around which is all his territory now. He lost left eye in his streets battles last year. Now looks around even when eats from his bowl. Cat's life ain't easy.... :)

S.P.

Depeche Mode - Just Can't Get Enough - Live iPad Cover

Why do I have ProckJet acct? To share improvs and daily fun with music, just like this ☮   

I had a blast twisting knobs at my Moog Subsequent 37 CV (on Prockjet cover)for an hour or so, having bassline and lead on top. Other day mixed it with new Wavetable and other synths in Ableton Live 10. Explored Replika reverb by Native Instruments. Just 3 basslines, 3 pluck, and 3 lead synth. Kick from BassISM2. Simple :) 

Hope you find it fun ... or fall a sleep and have a great chill, which will be "mission-accomplished" for Prockjet. Exploring sound and inducing vibe is mesmerizing process. Bob Moog said this in the documentary you can find on YT. I extracted a quote on that:

"It is something between discovering and witnessing" - Robert Moog 

Cannot agree more! Have best inspiration with what you play guys!

..... P.S. Yes, Bolero is my favorite Classical piece. Tops! that I remembered somehow after playing this and listening few days later :) (not calling this any way close to Ravel, just messing up and having Nocturnal fun ... and it was played in the morning. You don't want to hear my late night mourning for sure :P

Nocturnal (Longest Night Nocturne Edit)

In this track I was having a blast Analog Kick produced by Moog Subsequent 37 CV. I think there are fans of that kissing, deep tone you can find on numerous records from 80's and 90's, also established itself in PsyTrance and other Future genres nowadays. 

Un-mastered and under-produced, but I like to share it with exaggerated kick like I played. Will likely beef-up the music part and put in place deeper, trance-ier place in Prockgressive release soon. If you like to have an Analog Kick sample send me a PM, an/or Midi file, so I can run it by Moog (free). I can tune it to the project, as tunning Kick to the song key gives essential effect, that you cannot get by dropping a dull kick sample from any random library. 

Tune it, shape it, stretch, revert it. Push it, drop it, smash, compress it :) Was it the lyrics about Kick in one good Daft Punk song? hehe

The rest is done in Ableton same session. New Live 10 Wavetable synth and  Arturia SEM. Also felt like picking some Fender Strat strings, so it is not jealous all attention goes to Moog lately  :) 

~ Musically yours ~ S.P. ~ @samprock ~ @silentzen ~

Telekinesis (Kicking Moog)

If you feel drowned and need some undrowning, remember someone live a happy life on the edge. Just make the waters and colors around you pretty! 

Another Ableton Live improv from my wierdos collection. Also with Moog kick and new in 2018 Wavetable synth in Live version 10. I rarely (never?) play vox samples in my mixes. These ones come from Korg Gadget. Why? I am big fun of one of the best experimental, electronic and chillout band of all times - Art Of Noise. We heard a million TV commercials and bacltrack, without knowing the band name in 80's. This is my Art Of Noise mood :)

Drone (Moog Mode)

“There is no island for your soul, there is only journey to it …“

Beat and synth played with Native Instruments iMashine2 4-track iPad app by taping on iPad surface. Plus my Yamaha bass and Fender Stratocaster for lead and licks. Recorded directly with Maschine MK3. The guitar effect if reversing guitar samples directly in Ableton, though I like jamn with reverse delay (like one can be found in Korg Gadget on iPad). The rest of prod and mastering is done in Ableton Live 10. Thanks for your support!   

The cover art is the portrait of a Big Green turtle who was chilling on a Island of Maui (Canon Rebel T4i, f/8, 1/400sec, ISO-100, 124mm. Lens Canon EF-S 18-135mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS USM).

Oh, yes... You probably noticed I am having much fun sharing improvisation, raw and work-in-progress jams on my @prockjet account lately. More will come. The base for this track was one of the Prockjets. That's the version of the track when it was just conceived on iPad iMaschine app:

Island

Prock marathon continue - fresh one session recording. This time done on Native Instruments :) 

All played by hands on luxurious silky Maschine MK3 pads. Used Komplete kits and sounds, plus NI Monark and Arturia Prophet V3. Arturia synths integrated as NKS tools and available as native instruments in the Maschine flow. It's phunn! :) 

Inspired by nostalgic memories of good reading Haggard’s books in childhood. REALLY loved the adventure stories and hint of mystery. “She” is one fav of them … 

So here is the sound track for reading :) BTW, the book is available free at Project Gutenberg, where I usually grab a book in “epub” format and drop to iPnone/iPad (or Kindle version, or read online): gutenberg.org/ebooks/3155

Amber (Community Playlist Invite)

One groovy night session spent with Maschine MK3. It's real fine device keeping your inspiration flowing. SoundCloud detected the genre as Tech House. I never try to play and make anything to fit into any particular style. Loving Tech House though and excited it just came up casually.

Enterprise (Engines Warmup)

One of my own favorite track from Prockjets (Singles Collection), released on Silent Zen label today - 11/29/2018. Not rushing you to the stores, just sharing the excitement and major for Indie artists milestone. Having my own label and the first official 26 track release. All authentic, made on a spot, most on iPad, iPhone, Ableton and/or just playing guitars. 

On this Roses track my beloved Cordoba, Special KOA Edition nylon string guitar, meets Korg Gadget app electronic I played on iPad. No fuss, simple joy of music. Hope you like it too and having best inspiration with everything you play today. The rose is from San Jose, Sunny California.  Cheers!

Enterprise

Tipsy meditative, groove reflective, masculine chillout. Chill hard! 

My own favorite track for the new Flower Power - Prock Prock album, 11/29/2019. 

https://soundcloud.com/samprock/sets/flower-power

Usually i post fresh improv, faster made tune. This one is different. Two years of mixing, mastering, getting dozens of basslines bumping to each other in a slo-mo Pogo dance. Had a blast producing it in Ableton with Arturia synths and IK Multimedia tools. 

Having said that, thats a rule, Fender Strat tipsy guitar noodle improv comes almost as-is, as it happened one good day. You can spend endless time mixing, polishing, growing your skills, but if something just happened - let it be. Power of music is in the improvisation and art of impression. Hope you share that thoughts and enjoy the do. TNX!

Wine

Tuned my Cordoba nylon string guitar and all the synthesizers to naturally play in the Love Frequency. 528Hz - frequency plants vibrate during photosynthesis. So the cover art photo. Ancient Solfeggio tones to heal minds, fuel the soul. It worked for John Lennon in "Imagine", so have to join the movement. Tune will help to grow your cucumber too! :)

The vibe we all need so much now. Huge respect to all essential heroes of pandemic keep saving humanity. One life at a time. To all Indie musicians for positivity and spreading love. One song at a time. Chance we all waited for - save the planet from your bedroom studio <3

Cover art is shot thru the grape leaves in our backyard. Learning "Chasing Light" photography technique. Canon EOS REBEL T4i, f/5.6, 1/2500 sec., ISO-6400, 67 mm. Lens Canon EF-S 18-135mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS USM.

The track will open 5th album, coming up next two decades :) No rush, I am on "no-plan" plan. Collecting Prock 2.0 style tracks - Uplifting Chillout. This Love goes out as a single to contribute to the vibe of good! Hope you enjoy. TNX!
