Singer of My Life

Trying to fingerpick.  Just vocals and guitar, nothing else.  Hope you enjoy.

Wherever they go
it must be finer than here

I dream of joining the journey
but I would only weigh heavy
on their elation

I hide burdens in the shade
pretend I know where home is

Those with wings and freedom
leave me wishing
I were not human

Wherever they go
it must be finer than here

I dream of joining the journey
but I would only weigh heavy

vocals by Pia
lyrics by Suzy Hazelwood
Music composed and performed by R. Salchak

This is a track from 2019, and has been unearthed because it remains one of my favorite collaborations with vocals. The poignant and bittersweet lyrics sung in Pia’s beautiful soft voice offer an inviting sincerity......and then there's that ending. :)

Original instrumental version appeared as "Solstice Vital"on the debut Mood Exhibit album "The Elegance of Melancholy"  in 2016

Mood Exhibit - Winged Envy [feat: Pia]

Kind of a free form exploration of weirdness with my friend, Stonerjazz! @user-911083679 ... with a bit of a sad melancholy vibe to it. I love the techniques Jeff used to make his guitar wail in time with my modulated synths. Hope you will also enjoy.

Angelika ist meine Schwester, und es handelt sich um einen Drohnenflug. Dabei entstand ein kurzes Video, das den Ort zeigt, an dem sie lebt und arbeitet, und zu dem ich eine kurze Musik geschrieben habe, für ihre Webseite www.human-unfoldment.de .
Wir alle haben schon erstaunt unsere Fähigkeit zu Fliegen zur Kenntnis genommen - in unseren Träumen, von Zeit zu Zeit. Das tun wir dann mit der größten Selbstverständlichkeit, Leichtigkeit und Gelassenheit. Und wir haben den Wunsch, das unser Leben so wäre.
We all have the ability to fly - in our dreams, from time to time. It happens to be very simple, we do it relaxed and withour any effort. And we wish our lives would be like that.
This piece grew out of a little music I wrote for a video for the website of my sister, which is about yoga and personality building. The video shows a drone flight over the place, where she lives and works - a lake, trees, houses, nice weather.

SubTonic - Space program

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
