This song was inspired by a conversation with https://soundcloud.com/roger-b-train 
He had taken an amazing picture of a giant flock of crows in the sky. We were sharing thoughts of the symbolism of the crows at the end of summer. Parts of the lyrics are taken from the original chat. 
Thank you for listening :)

Lyrics:
"The crows will be coming again soon
Crops getting closer to be taken down 
Crazy sight to see day after day until solstice" (Rogers words)
"I hear, i can hear them coming
In my garden the harvest is done
Morning dew don´t vanish anymore
Mother nature ist tired
Light gets more pale and soon the dark days are there" (my words)
I´m still excited about the circle of the year from solstice to solstice
Crows will be coming soon
Foggy days, deep sun, long shadows
Old summer is like the last hug of a beloved grandma, 
We don´t want to let go. But we know she´ll be gone soon.

'tarnished ground'

The darkness all around, 
it pulls me down into the ground
and, yet, I've found my being sound.
For the light that shines through found
some truths, confound.
A strange compound.

The fall of light rebounds
and calls on tarnished ground.
The fall of light glows round
and calls a distant sound.

tarnished ground (with Falsestart, Little Lone Waltz and Jonathan Beckenstein)

I wrote another Holiday song...

The lights are on the tree
You brought the decorations down
The candles flicker in the breeze
It's calm and peaceful all around 

It was cold here in this place
But you got the  fire going 
And it warms my hands and face 
You made this  feel like home

and I know that things were bad
But they'll be better now you'll see
This is going to be our year
This year was made for you and me

When i look back upon this year  
On all these mem’ries made together
And the love we always shared
That i knew would last forever

Now i don’t know how things would be
If i woke up to find you gone
You are everything to me  
I ‘d never make it on my own

And I feel it in my heart
Things are better now you’ll see
This is gonna be our year
AndI’m so glad you’re here with me

This is gonna be our year
This year was made for you and me

This Is Going To Be Our Year (Christmas '23)

The snow is fallin' on Christmas Eve
And I'm walkin down familiar streets
Warm food waits for me at home
Right now I'm happy just to feel the snow

But when we get back you'll be there
Smilin' at me from atop the stairs
The lights are glowing all around the place
A loving feeling resting on your face
This is your homemade Christmas
This is your homemade Christmas

Now I know where our home exists
It took awhile but I can admit
Not a place but it's all our own
Anywhere I'm with you, we're not alone

Presents and family are miles away
Along with memories of Christmas days
But we're together and that's all I need
warm on a homemade Christmas Eve...
This is your homemade Christmas
This is your homemade Christmas

All the promises that we have kept
replace the shiny new store bought gifts
The days ahead that we now see
Can't be wrapped under a Christmas tree...

The winter deepens in the frosty days
And glowing fires still keep me amazed
Inside our home's everything we need
When you wake up next to me...
On our homemade Christmas
On our homemade Christmas

Your Homemade Christmas

Seven Wings

On a dystopian planet, a Neanderthal thaws from an iceblock; he is unconscious and, when the ice has completely melted, his reality dissolves around him. The world he once knew was not only gone but unrecognizable. "My people did this?" He ponders for a moment, and, only to find a doomed society, he becomes shocked at what he thinks his kind has done.

LYRICS:
Took a drive-by, Jimmy boy
What did I see?
Not nothing so forgetful.
Take a walk now, Freddy boy
Who do you lead?
Life's moving soothingly.

What in the world today?
How can this happen to be?
Does Existing Life Somehow?
Is it only just to see?
Here and Now.

Unified mind bathed in a 
Beauteous skin.
Nary running to the line
Too little water to swim in.
Equipped for hardship
Giving the roundabout
Go wonderfully.

What in the world today?
How can this happen to be?
Does Existing Life Somehow?
Is it only just to see?
Here and Now.

Holding on to the ropes of life
Swinging freely
Arcing on.
Crest the wave
Dance the edge
Away to a sleep, far.
Away the future
Stained, betrayed, 
Sowing seeds
The great leap.
Dreaming onward
To a bright and good
Living now
Is it real?
Many times around the sun stays here
But the moon stays down.
Past is present
Isn't done with us
Back to show that there's both.

What in the world today?
How can this happen to be?
Does Existing Life Somehow?
Is it only just to see?
What in the world today?
How can this happen to be?
Does Existing Life Somehow?
Here and Now.

Don't try so hard, Billy boy
What do you need?
You've got fortune so plentiful.
Too long it's been, Tommy boy
Please take a seat.
Life's grooving foolishly.
(Unified mind bathed in a 
Beauteous skin.
Nary running to the line
Too little water to swim in.)

So this is how it plays out.
Return to reality.
Unconstrained by breaking free.
Dwelling on fatality.

Here and Now

I've been pretty sick lately, so due to a lack of inspiration for anything new, this is another one dragged out of the archives and brought into 2024.
Thought it would be nice to have some guitar added too, so my trusty friend Ibnu Hadi D came up with the goods once again 😊
Always a pleasure working with him!

You Know Me Better (Remix) feat. Ibnu Hadi D

Here's the latest collaboration with 
Joerxworx: https://soundcloud.com/joerxworx
Please Enjoy and leave a comment...
He added his amazingly spirited Sax to this composition. Thank you Jorg, your addition is nothing less than greatness.

Some information about this track processing: it was processed with “ The Pulsar Echorec” VST, so it should sound more analog. the Echorec disk involving magnetic saturation and hysteresis…I wanted a warped warm sound so there will be areas on the track where there are dropouts coloring and artifacts. I love the way it adds grit musically. It’s basically an old fashion tape machine. In other word, it dirties up the track, and adds saturation and character…I love it!

The Same Circle By Lou Osiavo-Joerxworx Sax Remix

Time and thought are the two variables that influence fear in our brains. Time is the interval between the present and the future, where we anticipate potential threats and challenges. Thought is the cognitive process that we use to simulate the possible outcomes and scenarios that may occur. But both time and thought are not objective phenomena in themselves. They are only mental representations that we use to interact with the world. The source of fear is the dependence on these representations, and the assumption that they are more relevant than the empirical evidence of the present moment. To reduce fear, we need to regulate time and thought, and align with the current state, where all is stable and calm. This is the goal of scientific rationality, to live in the present, and to rely on the empirical data.

Time and Thought are The Root of Fear
