What was it like in the Old Days?

Just A Waltz

Just a Waltz

Open Your Heart

Some may Laugh, some might Scoff.
Some will bully, others might mock.

Don't tease, upset, annoy or jeer.
Don't taunt the stranger or celebrate fear.

Please don’t cause hatred, misery and pain.
Don't manipulate or embed distain.

Don’t despise, dislike, dismiss or sneer, 
or add to the burden of someone’s fear.

Celebrate differences, welcome the change.
Even the normal, to you, may look strange.

Open your heart for this message to you.
Be honest and true in everything you say and anything you do. 

Don’t despise, dislike, dismiss or sneer, 
or add to the burden of someone’s fear.

Celebrate differences, welcome the change.
Even the normal, to you, may look strange.

Open your heart for this message to you.
Be honest and true in everything you say and anything you do.

Open Your Heart

Mirage - Part 1: Expectation & Part 2: Realisation

A Prelude

Ain't It Funny?

Some days I wake up early
and remember your words
still hit like bullets to my heart
Were we living in a lie
Cause you deceived me
You led me to believing we’d never part

Oh ain’t it funny
Funny how you played me
Funny how you played me like a fool that day
I came home early to surprise you
I stopped to buy you flowers on the way

You were speaking on the phone
Your words were tender
I heard whispered words of love
And died that day
It was clear that I’d been played
I felt sp foolish
But I was blind and only have myself to blame.

Oh ain’t it funny
Funny how you played me
Funny how you played me like a fool that day
I came home early to surprise you
I stopped to buy you flowers on the way

At least now I know just gotta get you out my mind
Need to focus on the bad times
Even though they’re hard to find
Need to remember how you played me
Cause you turned out to be
The cheating kind

Oh ain’t it funny
Funny how you played me
Funny how you played me like a fool that day
I came home early to surprise you
I stopped to buy you flowers on the way.

I'll Never Find Another You

I wrote this song in the early 90's and I dropped it into an AI site and this came out the other end. Sounds pretty cool I think. 

Turn Out Your Light

What started by sampling household stuff and then putting to a beat! that's it! nothing more. Oh, then adding the quotes from George Orwell's 1984! 

DIVE1984

Greetings! I'm a versatile artist with a deep passion for creative expression through music and design. Over the years, I've honed my skills in several artistic domains, allowing me to craft a unique blend of talents that define who I am.

Music is My Muse:
I've spent countless years immersed in the world of music, evolving from a listener into a multifaceted creator. As a singer and songwriter, I use music to channel my thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Every song I write is a piece of my soul, an exploration of human nature, relationships, and the world around us.

Sound Sorcerer:
Beyond lyrics and melodies, I'm a proficient production and mixing engineer. I wield technology to sculpt sonic landscapes that resonate with my audience. Whether it's crafting the perfect beat, layering harmonies, or fine-tuning the mix, I take pride in delivering music that's not just heard but felt.

Visual Alchemist:
My creativity extends beyond music. As a graphic designer, I transform ideas into captivating visuals. My designs are an artful fusion of aesthetics and functionality, telling stories and conveying messages that leave a lasting impact.

Inspiration Everywhere:
I find inspiration in the unlikeliest of places – from the subtle cadence of a heartbeat to the texture of an everyday object. I draw from the rich tapestry of human nature and the intricate web of relationships that connect us all.

Join me on this journey of artistic exploration, where I aim to create, inspire, and connect through the universal languages of music and design.

If you're seeking a collaborator, looking for design that speaks volumes, or simply want to chat about the creative process, I'm just a message away. Let's make something beautiful together!
