HELLO WORLD (The Transatlantic Trio)

Sometimes with humans, when things get tough you might feel like nothing will get you out of the darkness. A little reminder here (including to myself) to keep the light inside of you shining as you have a place in this world. No one can ever undermine that. 

In this collaboration we exchanged ideas back and forth and I absolutely loved the backing track Morten sent me! So I came up with some lyrics and sang them pretty spontaneously.

Keep The Light Inside - Remix by Jeamland & Heidi K

Poursuite exercice

With all the "Breaking News", especially concerning the lawsuits against FOX (US) in the Dominion and Smartmatic lawsuits revealing all the duplicity and hypocrisy from the talking heads of rage-baiting opinion personalities (not real reporters on FOX), Can democracy be destroyed by false claims reported as truth? I'll let that question be answered by Ray's song. Ray did all the music and wrote the opinion piece (lyrics) and I just embraced the intention of Ray's analysis of the wonky state of global media and hoped a little edge and passion in the vocal would drive the message home. Be careful what you choose to believe, and the sources you decide are credible. Caveat Emptor.

Lyrics:
I've been thinking about the state of the world
The networks want to feed ya
I'm talking about the global media
It's all enough to drive a sane man to  distraction
All they give us is a knee-jerk reaction

You know it's easy to forget how much they need ya
Those people behind the desk in the global multi-media
It's all a ratings game, the news reports are all the same
A pretty face, every hair in place,
But what they tell ya is just another knee-jerk reaction, uh- huh
A knee-jerk reaction, uh- huh
Knee-jerk reaction

Instrumental

I wonder how much they conspire to deceive ya
Photoshopped and over-dubbed is the norm in global media
Images you see have no real attraction
No bearing to the truth, it's just a knee-jerk reaction

Knee-jerk reaction (x6)

Mmmmm they say the truth will set you free,
But where's the truth in what I see?
Knee-jerk reaction
Take the news and wrap it 'round,
Once around, maybe twice around
And spew it out for us to see,
Then spew it out for us to see
There is no truth in what I read
knee-jerk reaction (x6)

Knee - Jerk Reaction (Brookes And Wigmore)

This is the second track inspired by E.M. Forster's, "The Machine Stops". 
Vashti reluctantly leaves her cell to visit her errant son on the other side of the planet. Here's the passage that inspired me:

"The air ship service was a relic from the former age. It was kept up, because it was easier to keep it up than to stop it or diminish it, but now it far exceeded the wants of the population. Vessel after vessel would rise up from the vomitories of Rye or of Christchurch, would sail into the crowded sky and would draw up at the wharves of the south - empty."

Kinda Art Deco

Meat salad doesn't rhyme with dinosaur wings 

would love to be 
a little more yes
like you, like him, her, it
yes, like anyone 
not so weird 

but then it occurs to me 
then all of a sudden it occurs to me 

Meat salad doesn't rhyme with dinosaur wings 
ass doesn't fit on the bucket and doesn't fit the eye 

but it's a jacket like pants 
latte like cross 
and five will never be even 

be proud of yourself

White Raven (Follow the white raven and go through the enchanted door)

Buoyant Lights

I was interested in music in my early youth... so I soon got my first synthesizer and set up a small home recording studio.
over the years i played keyboards in 5 bands...the direction was rock...pop...blues and soul.
in the meantime i have discovered my enthusiasm for creating my own songs.
it makes me happy when I can compose...arrange...mix...produce and create something new.
it's like a passion to experiment with different styles of music... and it gives me a lot of joy.
the only limit is your imagination...
is my motto.
and everything is possible...you just have to try.

music is pure magic...and part of the soul...
no one can escape her
let the music guide your mind...and that's the only way you'll get the freedom...you've always wanted
