Brilliant synth-melancholic/pop track with catchy melody! Great vocal!

Beautiful track! Very moving and powerful, great song, sound, composition and percussions altogether!

Main parts --- nylon and steel string acoustic with some electric guitar overdubs later. A kind of study, with some almost experimental electric guitar ornaments. Recovered the acoustic guitar files, fixed them up, and glued it together! A bit of unevenness in the quality means best on earphones I think.

Step into the Light

We'll I heard Christmas songs at Kohls this week so I thought I better get with it and put out our Christmas song😄This was written 2021 Christmas Season. The pix is the manger scene I use every year! I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and Blessed New year!
Verse 1
Among the many presents underneath my Christmas
Long ago a Gift was born, born for you and me
A Savior in this baby, so the wise men came.
King s and humble shepherd boys worship Him this day
Tag
In a lowly manger our long awaited Savior
Gift of Love and Light
Born to us this Christmas night
Chorus
The star in the East leads to our King ( Background vox repeat Oh Holy Night Oh Holy Night)
This Holy Night Oh Holy Night
The Promised One creation sings
This Holy Night Oh Holy Night
Verse 2
There’d been no word from Heaven
Til the Christ Child cried
A darkened world now full of hope 
In one soft little sigh
Mary held her baby Joyful Angels fill the sky
Sing Glory in the Highest Peace on Earth to All Mankind
Repeat Tag and Chorus

(snare for a drummer boy feel)great job Josh(16 @ the time)!
Bridge
With wonder we welcome the King of Kings Emmanuel Emmanuel
Repeat 4 times
Then repeat Chorus


This Holy Night

I was thrilled when Andy and Gaz invited me along on this collaboration.  The Lyrics are beautifully written and sung by Gaz and lends itself to great story telling. It was lovely to join him and to bring my creative spirit in harmonisation to the table.  Andy wrote the beautiful melody and created the gorgeous Instrumental track (which has a hauntingly beautiful Guitar solo) and then brought it All to life with his incredible Production / Mixing skills, breathing life into the song,  and giving it a depth of sound to make it "sparkle".

Lyrics:
Our Devine intervention - Gary Brown and Andy Hall.

Standing on the bridge
Staring into the water
(I’ve kept you waiting
An hour and a quarter )
My Head tells me to leave
My hearts a little more naive
(We’ve had 27 days apart
To rekindle this flagging heart )

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To were I love being yours
And you love being mine
Our Devine intervention
Needs to work for us this time

V2
Finally you arrive in your own chaotic style
(So my car went and broke down
And i walk the last 3 miles)
I get the big puppy eyes
And a cute little sorry sigh
(What lies beneath in this rivers deep
Are the same things in the
secrets we keep)

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To were I love being yours
And you love being mine
Our Devine intervention
Needs to work for us this time

V3
(Let’s stand back to back
Walk in a different direction)
If we just keep right on walking
Then we have lost all affection
(If we both look back and then we stop
We won’t lose what we’ve got)
Well I stopped and looked back
(I kept walking down the path)

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To we’re I loved being yours
And you loved being mine
Our Devine intervention
At least we know now this time

Divine Intervention - Nat Daniels & The Conscience of Kings

We Don’t Talk Anymore

Sad when the summer came I sang to you
Sorrowful, somber, sable words
Buried the dreams you drempt inside of you
Ever alive and held on to

Straight into the eye of a powerful storm
Down electrical lines, keep me swaddled and warm
Winds whip through the trees, broad branches are broke
In the street there’s debris from an elderly oak
Men out on the sea being battered and tossed
Hear the captain’s decree, feeling hopelessly lost
Gave myself to the cause, sacrificed for a war
You use to write all the time, now we don’t talk anymore

Sad when the colors fade like joy we knew
Wittering blade and wilted limb
Wish it away this sleep we’ve fell into
Filtered, the sunlight seems so dim

Straight into the eye of a powerful storm
Down electrical lines, keep me swaddled and warm
Winds whip through the trees, broad branches are broke
In the street there’s debris from an elderly oak
Men out on the sea being battered and tossed
Hear the captain’s decree, feeling hopelessly lost
Gave myself to the cause, sacrificed for a war
You use to write all the time, now we don’t talk anymore

You use to write all the time
You use to write all the time
You use to write all the time
We don’t talk anymore

We don’t talk anymore
We don’t talk anymore
We don’t talk anymore
We don’t talk anymore

We Don't Talk Anymore

It's been a while since eddyoffline and I did a collab.  Mostly because he's always offline.  This one finally came together though.  I have never really played Reggae before and it shows. Thanks to eddy for sending me this track.  He plays an awesome bass in this as well as a solid rhythm guitar to hold things together.

Reggae-ish

A big thank you to https://soundcloud.com/joerxworx for playing nearly all instruments, arranging and mixing, it was a  pleasure to collab.

Lines in inverted commas quote René Girard (1923 - 2015), also the title of the song points to him.

Mimetic Desire

Man is the creature
Man is the creature

„Man is the creature
Who does not know
What to desire,
And he turns to others
In order to make up his mind.“ (2)

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don’t let the blindness guide you
Even if it is full of shiny, 
Mimetic desires

Maybe there is still 
A shadow of a hope out there
Isn’t there still somewhere
A shadow of a hope ?

Let me have it, let me, let me have it
Let me have it, let me, let me have it

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don’t let the blindness guide you
Even if it is full of shiny, 
Sparkling, mimetic desires

„We desire 
What others desire
Because we imitate 
Their desires."

Maybe there is still 
A shadow of a hope out there
Isn’t there still somewhere hanging out
A shadow of a hope ?

Man is the creature…
Man is the creature…

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don't let the blindness guide you
Don’t let the darkness blind you…

Mimetic Desire (ft joerxworx)

I'm very pleased to get to work with Karl's music yet again as we have collaborated on many projects together. When I first heard 'Haust' (Icelandic for Autumn), I was haunted by the richness of the bowed sound and the grinding industrial textures that spoke to me about the extreme environment in Iceland (https://soundcloud.com/sesar/haust). I asked Karl if I could contribute and a few weeks later I'm proud to present our 8th collaboration.

What was grey becomes black, 
That sinking feeling, 
As darkness falls, 
Dark falls.  

Dawn's late, later still, 
That sinking feeling, 
As darkness falls, 
Dark falls.  

Grey to black as darkness falls.

Darkness Falls by Sesar & Mark J Bennett

Recorded by George Jones...released in 1980...named as one of the greatest Country songs of all time. Songwriters were Bobby Braddock and Curly Putman. My favorite George Jones song.
