WOW!👾 Icy clean groove here! Very cool!

I came back for a second listen!👾 EPIC 1990-2000s feel!🎶

Cool Lead Synth play. I like, how the tone "bounces" and drives the energy in the track

Great backstory to this piece Paco. Wonderful energy and dynamism throughout and so appropriate for the Mars theme. Great to listen to and what a beat. Best to you, Mark

Fantastic work. The production sounds amazing of course, and I like the melodic interaction between the layers.

Won’t You Please Just Go
Verse 1
It used to be that right and wrong were clear cut, black and white
And people had the courage still to stand and fight the good fight
It used to be that folks could bridge across the partisan divide
Do the right thing and set their differences aside
Now the tech bros want to colonize Mars, and create a brand-new utopia
And if you’re skeptical of their vision, you’re just a luddite with myopia
They’re dreaming of a world of like minds, a place with no dissent
But too much group think has a way of becoming malevolent

Chorus
Won’t you go, won’t you go, won’t you please just go
Get on that rocket ship and fly to Mars (good riddance)
You say you’ll build a better society on the fourth rock from the sun
But there’s lots of work on Earth that still needs to be done.

Verse 2
Columbus sailed west and began a bold new age of exploration
But life on a barren rock seems like a recipe for frustration
It’s easy to be seduced by all that science fiction snake oil
but once you get to Mars, it’ll be nothing but drudgery and endless toil

Bridge
Seems like there are better ways for billionaires to spend their cash
Than living in a tin can on Mars like high-tech trailer trash.
They say the higher you fly, the harder you can fall;
Why trade a living planet for a dusty red ball?

Verse 3
Things can get kind of messy down here on good old planet Earth
You can turn tail and and try to escape this place of humanities birth
You can wipe the slate clean but there’s something in our DNA
You can make people march in lockstep but eventually there will be hell to pay.


Chorus
Won’t you go, won’t you go, won’t you please just go
Get on that rocket ship and fly to Mars (good riddance)
You say you’ll build a better society on the fourth rock from the sun
But there’s lots of work on Earth that still needs to be done

Won't You Please Just Go (to Mars)

So Many Years (Remix)

It's a Japanese song. A song from my EP SUPERNOVA. I made this with the image of U2 playing slow tempo EDM. 95 BPM. 4m25s. The main genre is Rock. The lyrics are important for this song. I put my actual feelings into the lyrics. It's a very emotional song. Please listen carefully to the lead guitar in the last part. Link to major platforms : https://linkco.re/E2aRhZS6

素晴らしい夜
とてつもない夜
重くのしかかる
今でも

何か変だと
僕は思った uh huh
その瞬間に
君は消えてた

捨てないで 僕を
捨てないで 僕を
捨てないで 僕を
捨てないで
捨てないで 僕を
捨てないで 僕を
捨てないで 僕を
捨てないで
捨てないで

捨てないで 僕を
(I love you)
捨てないで 僕を
(I love you)
捨てないで 僕を
(I love you)
捨てないで 僕を
(I love you)
(I love you)
(I love you)
Wooo Hooo
(I love you )
(I love you)
捨てないで 僕を
(I love you)
捨てないで 僕を
(I love you)
捨てないで 僕を
(I love you)
捨てないで 僕を
(I love you oh)
(I love you)
(I love you)
(I love you Wooo Wooo)

FIRST ECLIPSE ON MARS

==========================

Year 2015.

I'd only been composing music with my iPad 1 for four years.

I was lucky enough to find an app that allowed me to "make music" easily: Music Studio 2. It's the only DAW I've ever used, aside from trying out a few tracks with Garage Band.

I made an effort to learn, and so every night I searched the software's forum, where other users were asking questions, suggesting improvements, and posting their compositions (some of which were downloadable). Little by little, I got to know some of them and established some trust (I still write to them from time to time...). Yes, I was a forty-something among people twice my age (and much older... in some cases).

The most active was my friend Ronald, who suggested composing music related to the seven deadly sins. I chose envy.

A couple of years later, I completely reworked the melody and added new sounds with synthesizers I obtained from new apps I added to my collection. Although there was some underlying music that connected the two melodies, it couldn't be said to be the same. So I decided to give it another name, and called it First Eclipse on Mars.

I hope you like it.

SO I’M I’M TALKING TO MYSELF TELLING MYSELF TO LET GO

Welcome to my page.

I appreciate all the comments, likes and repost that you leave me in my compositions.

I make music for fun and to get away. I have multiple styles, although my biggest influence is in electronic music.

I am self taught and learned with Music Studio 2 on a first generation ipad 11 years ago. I have never composed before. Perform more than 80 songs a year for the first 6-7 years to learn about the program and develop creativity to compose. I have listened to different types of music throughout my life and maybe that has helped me.

I still compose only with an ipad (last generation), but I no longer work only with native MS2 instruments since I have expanded my instrument library with programs such as Audiokit, Digital D1, kv331, Sunrizer, etc ...

My music can be downloaded, but not used for commercial purposes (my authorization is required).

During the last two years I have encouraged myself to collaborate with professional or self-taught musicians like me. Are these:

Annie Smart

Dan DT

Loue ghazi

Lukowig

Mirjam Keijnemans

Nathalie B20

Subzero

Osc Project

Vicent

Winkanwoo

Wypernet

Thanks to them for their generous timeshare and patience.

You can contact me by sending me a message through SC.

Thanks for visiting.
