No Good To Me (collab with Dave Bayes)

I Was Made For Loving You (cover Kiss)

I met an artist on soundcloud, who has sucha a stream of ideas, that  one project isn't enough." Cosmic Majo" offered me an instrumental and asked me something to do with those "voices", of mine. No rules, no conditions.

I heard immediatly the sea of Scotland and blue creatues singing with my voice; beware a storm is coming. 

Lyrics  blue men of the Minch

We are in Scotland,
We hear the story of the blue men of the Minch, some sort of blue creatures looking like  human but t hey live under water in deep caves 
looking for sailors to drawn
and stricken boats to sink
They have a blue colour, this mythical creatures look much like humans, and are about the same size. But they have the power to create storms.
When the weather was fine they were sleeping under the surface of the water. They swim with their torsos raised out of the water, twisting and diving. 
They could cause storm. The blue creatures approached the capitain of a ship
And said  that he had to finish the rhyme
The capitain had to solve riddles and finish 2 rhymes of poetry.

If he couldn’t do it the ship was capsised  

 Blue Chief: Man of the black cap what do you say
As your proud ship cleaves the brine?
Skipper: My speedy ship takes the shortest way
And I'll follow you line by line
Blue Chief: My men are eager, my men are ready
To drag you below the waves
Skipper: My ship is speedy, my ship is steady
If it sank, it would wreck your caves.

Message to … you know who

I saw you prudently observing me
From a distance, patiently,   waiting to see
Approaching me
Not to upset me
Carefully, you wanted to know more about me
How long did it take before i noticed you

I asked you what brings you to me

You were a stranger, came out of the blue
Men or machine or something in between 
Who are you
like a magnet  You’re attracting me  like a magnet
You said like a magnet you’re attracting me  
asked so many questions
Your intrest was flattering me 
But an answer you never gave
Nothing you trust, nothing is safe
You said you’re like a magnet, I can not resist
like a magnet attracting me
I can not resist
And…
I’m under your skin
So what happened
You entered my brain and you couldn’t get out
 You couldn’t escape
You couldn’t get out
And I’m under your skin
So what happened
I’m under your skin
I’m the lyrics and the song in your head
You entered my brain and you couldn’t get out 

I’m  under your skin
I’m the texte you can’t forget
I’m in your ears
I’m the texte you can’t forget
maze
I’m in your ears
I’m the texte you can't forget

So try to fight it, because
You’re defeating me
I’m depleating you
Stop this obsession, stop it stop
it’s depleating you
It’s defeating me
Message to my stalker
Fight it
It’s taking your energy
Fight this obsession
Fight
Like a magnet, 
You couldn’t  resist
You asked so many questions
Nothing you trust, nothing is safe

So what happened….etc…
You’re in my brain
I am the song in your ears
I am the texte   you can’t forget

Sexobject is the project of Miami Jeff en lyrics made by Lillian Mareddy 
In my opinion the sound of the original is "retro", the videoclip is in American eyes risky, while in Europe it feels a bit 'vintage" in a good way. 

I surprised Jimmy with my spiced up vocalsounds (just a bit playing and having fun with changing the sounds) and he calls it futuristic... enjoy!

If you, if you could return
Don't let it burn
Don't let it fade
I'm sure I'm not being rude
But it's just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining every day
I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand?
Is that the way we stand?
Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you?
But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?
Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong, I was wrong
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just want to be with you
And I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?
And I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

This beautiful  instrumental made by Neno, from the beautiful Croatia, 
already got some attention... To know this beautiful guitarwork is to love it. 
His work deserves all the love of the world.

Neno, became a close soundcloud friend, no mater the distance... 

i wrote the lyrics and melody in Malta (my so called silence retraite), as some sort of message that little gestures can cause a big change. And that is close to the original meaning of the instrumental.

Thank you Neno for being a good friend! And to this lovely community: thank you for listening and cherish each other!

Krolser dan de krolste kat (lyrics)     collab Damga

Klagend, jammerend komt ze als een krolse kat de trap af. 
Keionrustig , kan niet slapen,  komt, zoekt en vindt je aandacht.
draait haar kopje en krullende wimpers kijken je vragend aan: kom dichterbij.

Ze ronkt, knort , porrrt, 
ze schart, ze krabt,

traduction
En se plaignant, en pleurnichant, elle descend les escaliers comme une chatte en chaleur.
Très agité, n'arrive pas à dormir, vient, cherche et trouve votre attention.
tourne la tête et les cils bouclés vous regardent d'un air interrogateur : approchez-vous.

Elle grogne, grogne, pique, gratte, gratte,

Cast of characters:

Saskiagoethals-- @saskiagoethals --Saskia — vocals, lyrics, and production
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – guitar, bass, beats, mix, production, and composition
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –- piano, organ, and composition

Josh wrote:
"This song started with Tez coming up with a heavy riddim and monster bass to go with it, over which he laid his clockwork rhythm guitar. He shared it with Josh, who came up with the piano and organ parts. It was pretty much done, but we wated vocals on it, so it languished on the digital shelf for almost half a year. 
  That is until Saskia heard and worked with Tez on a different open collab on his page. He then offered her this one. She downloaded it, added her superb vocals, and sent it back to the other two to review. They were blown away by her creativity and skill as a singer, and are very grateful to her for reviving the project. 
  When it was all laid down, Tez mixed it expertly, as always. Saskia took his mix, sped it up and adjusted her vocals, too. She is a very competent producer, as well.
  Tez and Josh are big dub fans from way back, and this is the latest in a couple year running series of collabs in the genre from the two of them. They are very grateful to Saskia for doing such a wonderful job of completing the song. Look for her in future collabs, both with Tez and Josh, as well as with their band, The Eclectic Collective. We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it. "

I am both wonderful musicians very thankfull. This was real fun!

I have to mention that Josh made the awesome artworks! 

Lyrics by Saskiagoethals: 

I went to the love doctor
to shine his light on my loneliness
he promissed to fill the emptiness
cause
my love is gonne and since then i stayed alone
my bed is empty my feet are cold
and i don’t wanna feel already old
The love doctor said come with me
the night is young and so are we
So he kept his promise
And he warmed me with his kiss
inject me with your love
i don’ want my love back
i don’t want a quick fix i want my love doctor

Summer Fools

Two fools, you and me,
Summer fools
We believed
Summer love
We believe
That the summer
will last a lifetime
endlessly

Summer fools, you and me
Like a split second
Can last an eternity

The sunrays warm our face,
Seawaves washing up and down,
This paradise this place
It feels like time erased every trace of summer love

el tiempo borrará todo rastro de amor de verano

nous sommes "2 stars "Notre attraction  est suivie par une colusion stellar: hot!

Cosmic pleasure (with Damga)

We are stars you and me
hot when we collide
Shining bright
emitting light 

lyrics: cosmic pleasure


hot hot  hot

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, 
How I wonder what you are! 
Up above the world so high, 
Like a diamond in the sky. 

Twinkle, twinkle, all the night. 

Then the traveler in the dark 
Thanks you for your tiny spark, 
How could he see where to go, 
If you did not twinkle so? 

In the dark blue sky you keep, 
Often through my curtains peep 
For you never shut your eye, 
Till the sun is in the sky. 

As your bright and tiny spark 
Lights the traveler in the dark, 
Though I know not what you are, 
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

Cosmic pleasure with Damga!

When i made this track I wanted my voice be the driving, pulsing force.

I hope you enjoy.

the song is about dangerous attraction, toxic relations

Lyrics: Toxic    
 
All my alarms went off the moment that i saw you
My inner voice said “stay away” he’s nothing for you,
But i like danger any way and i just couldn’t stay away
And now we’re lying on the floor,
I hear you say: “you’ll find the door”
Your weeping girlfriend in despair
I see our clothes are here and there
And my head spins round and round
While my feeth don’t touch the ground
 
And the next thing i remember
Is something i want to forget
I said i leave
You said not yet
 
All my alarms went off the moment that you said that
My inner voice said “run away”
I didn’t listen anyway
Cause there was poison in my veins
And you were messing with my brain

You're toxic

Toxic (collab KillaSoundBoy)

This heavenly instrumental (open collab) made by Remnant60 was a one-take accoustic track... Was it improvisation or the whisper of an angel?, certainly it was celestial... 
  
So i wanted to greet a top-woman, with one off the best known prayers: "Ave Maria".

Lyrics

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Maria, gratia plena, Maria, gratia plena, Ave, Ave, Dominus, Dominus tecum. Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus, Et benedictus fructus ventris (tui), Ventris tui, Jesus. Ave Maria!

Sancta Maria, Mater Dei,
Ora pro nobis peccatoribus,
Ora, ora pro nobis;
Ora, ora pro nobis peccatoribus,
Nunc et in hora mortis,
In hora mortis nostrae.
In hora, hora mortis nostrae,
In hora mortis nostrae.
Ave Maria!

Lyrics No way out

Sometimes your life is a horrorgame, scary and jumpy 
You want to escape but there’s no way out
Are you caught in a complex web of romance, power and corruption
You want to escape but there’s no way out
Your life is a trap

No way out (KillaSoundBoy music- Saskia vocals/lyrics and magical flute)

I rediscovered my electric piano; made some layers of instruments...on a beat...
The lyrics are the poem "We Wear the Mask"  from Paul Laurence Dunbar).
The cover-art is made by Carlotta.

Lyrics/poem
We wear the mask that grins and lies,
It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,—
This debt we pay to human guile;
With torn and bleeding hearts we smile,
And mouth with myriad subtleties.

Why should the world be over-wise,
In counting all our tears and sighs?
Nay, let them only see us, while
       We wear the mask.

We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise.
We sing, but oh the clay is vile
Beneath our feet, and long the mile;
But let the world dream otherwise
We wear the mask!

We wear the mask  (poem Paul Laurence Dunbar)

Inspired by the  letter from Albert Einstein to his daughter   (Universal Force of Love)

Love is… (lyrics)

Love is gravity, love is a
Force that unfolds and reveals; 
Love is gravity, love is light

Love is gravity, 
it makes some people feel attracted. 

Love is gravity  power, Love force
unfolds and reveals
Love is day and night

Love is gravity

I made this track on my old electronic piano - programmed rhythm: Acid Jazz. I experimented by here and there making a part double of the recorded rhythm and change the pitch of the drum... in that double.

As usual i used effects on my voice and layered ...(sorry i can't help doing that haha).

Very simple lyrics,  but bottom line: we are living so fast that we don't notice it's going bad with the people around us, or even with ourselves.... 
We ask polite: "Are you OK?" but never want to hear "it's not OK?"
In this sick society we can have an important role to play to make a difference for someone.

Lyrics 
Not OK...


Are you OK

Nobody will know, nobody will see
You're not OK

NO Way
Did you notice, she is
Did you notice that she's not
She's not OK

Not OK...

I love the KSB sound. This instrumental inspired me to make the lyrics and songline, and i "gave it a bit of a new wave techno"-vibe.

I'm an outlaw- Lyrics

Maybe it’s true I’m wild and hard to control
And maybe it’s because
I have an untamable soul
I’m always on the run
I stay out of the sun, out of the sun, out out
Out of the light, out out
I’m an outlaw

I have to hide
An Outlaw
Yes Sir, Yes Mam,
That’s what I am
I am an outlaw

I’m under a ban
I’m under restriction
The law no longer offers me protection

Banned, barred, prohibitted, forbidden, Fugitive, Veto, embargo, outcast

Outlaw (KillaSoundBoy-Saskia)

What a night

Lyrics: Mag ik dan bij jou (cover Claudia de Breij)

Als de oorlog komt, En als ik dan moet schuilen, Mag ik dan bij jou?
Als er een clubje komt, Waar ik niet bij wil horen,Mag ik dan bij jou?
Als er een regel komt, Waar ik niet aan voldoen kan, Mag ik dan bij jou? En als ik iets moet zijn, Wat ik nooit geweest ben Mag ik dan bij jou?

(chorus)  Mag ik dan bij jou schuilen, Als het nergens anders kan? En als ik moet huilen, Droog jij m'n tranen dan? Want als ik bij jou mag, Mag jij altijd bij mij Kom wanneer je wilt,Ik hou een kamer voor je vrij
Als het onweer komt, En als ik dan bang ben, Mag ik dan bij jou? Als de avond valt, En 't is mij te donker, Mag ik dan bij jou? ls de lente komt, En als ik dan verliefd ben, Mag ik dan bij jou? Als de liefde komt, En ik weet het zeker, Mag ik dan bij jou?
(chorus)  Mag ik dan bij jou schuilen, Als het nergens anders kan? En als ik moet huilen, Droog jij m'n tranen dan? Want als ik bij jou mag, Mag jij altijd bij mij Kom wanneer je wilt,Ik hou een kamer voor je vrij
 
Als het einde komt, En als ik dan bang ben, Mag ik dan bij jou? Als het einde komt, En als ik dan alleen ben, Mag ik dan bij jou?

Translation: When the war comes, And if I have to hide; Can I come to you then? If there is a club, That I don't want to belong to, Can I come to you then? If there is a rule, Which I cannot comply with, Can I come to you then?And if I have to be something, Which I've never been, Can I come to you then? Can I take shelter with you then? If it can't be done anywhere else? And if I have to cry; Will you dry my tears then? 
Chorus;
Because if I can be with you, You can always be with me  Come whenever you want, I'll save a room for you, When the storm comesAnd when I'm scared; Can I come to you then?
When night falls, And it's too dark for me, Can I come to you then? When spring comes, And when I'm in love, Can I come to you then? When love comes, And I'm sure, Can I come to you then? Can I take shelter with you then? If it can't be done anywhere else?And if I have to cry Will you dry my tears then?
Chorus;  Because if I can be with you,…L.
When the end comes, And when I'm scared, Can I come to you then? When the end comes
And when I'm alone Can I come to you then?

i made lyrics about an expedition...not the kind of journey to discover the environment, but the one we do exploring ourselves and renewing.

Singing is for me a "sine qua non"... I did several vocal lines and made it faster and more robot-sounding (added samples, dallek sounds, synth); i even played on my guitar (Eko Est 1959) some notes. Hope you enjoy!
             
Expédition--lyrics

Je commence une expédition
Je récrée mon identité 
et j’établie un lien profond 
avec moi-même et la nature


Je prends conscience que je suis unique
Aujourd’hui Je fais le premier pas.

Je retourne à l'essence de l'existence.
une remise à zéro du corps et de l’esprit 

Loin du bruit,  
 la nature pure. 


J’embrasse mon  individualité et danse alors dansez

Living On The Edge

(Verse 1)
Living on the edge, where the city never sleeps
Hustling in the streets where the hunger runs deep
Concrete jungle a playground for the brave
All the hustle and grind-find the strength that you crave

(Chorus)
On the edge of a dreams where -the hustle is the game
Life's a gamble but we rise all the same
In the shadows we dance walk that narrow ledge
Gotta stay sharp -like a razor’s edge
that’s the hustlers pledge the hustlers pledge

(Verse 2)
In the Streets that’s the canvas,-where we paint our tale
From the struggle we rise like a phoenix we prevail
Hustling hard like a lion without fail
Every move strategic in this urban maze.
Doing your best just to avoid going to jail
Time is money and money pays
You can count your riches never your days

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Clock's ticking but the hustle just don't rest
Every challenge faced just to put you to the test
Living on the edge it's a risky ride
In the hustle we trust let the dreams collide

(Verse 3)
Concrete ambitions rising like the skyline
From the streets to the penthouse we make our climb
Living on the edge with a heart of a lion
In the hustle we trust time is money money is time

Living on the Edge-hope is out of reach (collab IPG1)

Still think positive
When nothing seems to work out fine 
And nothing happens at the right time
Your visions blurred, and what you see 
Is only pain and misery 
Your words don’t come out easely
Your thoughts are toxic, don’t you see
You need to change this right away
Even when you have no strenght
The wind comes from the wrong direction 
take a deep breath, smile and fight
try to rewire and inspire,
Believe, have faith,
Have confidence 
Turn frustration into action 
See it as an opportunity
Change how you think reshape what you see

Something is watching you

What’s it gonna do

Is it gonna bite you, is it gonna beat you 
Is it gonna take you, is it gonna rape       you
  
You feel instinctivly, you are in danger
Your heart is raging hard, you are in danger
Your breath is going fast; you are in danger 
And what you’re gonna do, something is watching you

You’re body is reacting properly
What’s it gonna be
Flight, freeze or fight
