COMPLICATE

Original composition..... Alejandro Gonzalez M.

Spei Waltz

Summer daisies springing
In my mind I see them swaying to my feelings
So one with my tune
A beat here, a heed there
Just for you
 
The rainbow pales
Against your magic spell
Everything fades
When you come calling to my dream space
 
‘Çause I can’t forget
That one day we met
May never see you again
Till this light of mine shines
But you showed me places
That these eyes had stopped seeing
Ooh yeah..
(Yeah, it was you)
So darling, no matter, there’s only one place for you to be mine
In my dreams
Yes, in my dreams
 
 
Winter comes but I feel warm
Funny how a day’s memory
Can feel so strong
 
A gust of wind
Can’t shake me from within
Nothing else matters
As long as I know that my dream’s still living
 
‘Çause I can’t forget
That one day we met
May never see you again
Till this light of mine shines
But you showed me places
That these eyes had stopped seeing
Ooh yeah..
(Yeah, it was you)
So darling, no matter, there’s only one place for you to be mine
In my dreams
Yes, in my dreams
 
Life was so unkind
Once upon a time
Then something changed
Oh I may never see that day again
But I’ll thank you
For making me bloom
 
And I can’t forget
That one day we met
May never see you again
Till this light of mine shines
But you showed me places
That these eyes had stopped seeing
Ooh yeah..
(Yeah, it was you)
So darling, no matter, there’s only one place for you to be mine
In my dreams
Yes, in my dreams

In My Dreams (EP - Hopes and Dreams)

Just Passing Through

Everything

It is the streets and canals of Amsterdam in the Autumn. Melancholic tunes of street musicians, atmosphere of loneliness and light nostalgia slowly embracing you while getting lost..

Seven very talented young composers of today made an interdisciplinary program in Muziekgebouw aan ‘t IJ working together with the Nieuw Ensemble, as well as various artists, from an actress to a jazz singer. Brand-new compositions, a sound sculpture, music-theater, were all presented in the Great Hall, offering to the audience an exciting glimpse of 2014′s new music scene.
 
The Nieuw Ensemble, Yoshiaki Onishi, Emre Sihan Kaleli, Mátyás Wettl, Igor Iofe, Flora Koene, Felipe Ignacio Noriega and Kate Moore presenting An Evening of Today.

Echoes Before They're Made

A piece I wrote for my wife Laura.  Harp, piano and orchestra.  I hope you enjoy it.

Laura's Song

https://youtu.be/LQYzhmBIVLk

Any sane brain will complain
and fail to this and bail, son.
But I can tap a vein
power through the pain
rain like a ****ing rail gun.

Cause my style's 
never been out of style
it's the divine style
better believe that!
You're facile as a missile
don't stockpile—
never gonna need that.

My brainchild is ignateous,
it's lit and fit to lead the nations.
I'm thinkin' I can make a proclamation:
If you dig it, you must sing it
You must take it close to the heart
blows to the heart, master the art.
It's not about being faster
or a misogynous bastard,
I'm ad astra.

This game's got a hold on me.
(I can I can cut like a ****in' knife when the rhythm calls me!)
Taking your baby formula.
Breaking you'll make you humbler.

No apology.
(I can I can slash like a ****in' scythe nothing ever dulls me!)
Rein in those who brag a lot.
Reign down like the Jagannath.

Got a metronome glued to my dome
like a pacemaker.
(bass shaker)
Read the mosaic—I 
can bend the beat like a voltaic arc.

Some fake hard
but they got the boy in 'em make 'em brittle.
Don't remember ever being "Little",
keep my inner Beat Boy in the middle.

Touched by the God of Madness,
when I fatten this
I'm gonna patent this.
I'm gonna practice 
on your wackness
like the female praying mantis.

Better back this up
with a bigger groove
feign a bigger move
find a better proof.
Yeah, I'm the Beta Wolf
who snapped your Alpha in half
and I'm not sorry!

Chorus (repeated)
