Pablo Camberelli.

Once I wrote a description here !!!

Ok let's say I started adding layers to the great music https://soundcloud.com/progrockdan1 sent to me.

Letra (translated lyrics below)

Se arrastró bajo los muros,
llorando.
Se filtró por las ranuras,
buscándome.
Y miró entre las fisuras,
deseando:
mucho claro, nada oscuro,
llamándome…
 
Mas el centinela mágico
de quijadas relucientes,
descarnado por los dientes
de mil y un gusanos cárnicos,
por la acción más degenérica
de venenos de odio y muerte,
este ser, cerebro inerte,
la detuvo, niña histérica…
 
Pero huyó,
vio sentada su promesa de llamarme.
Y escapó,
Vio prendido su deseo de amarme.
Sensación
de saber que era la presa, fuego y carne,
y en la intensa luz de vida vino a hallarme;
y me encontró.
-------------------------------------------
She crawled under the walls,
crying.
She filtered through the grooves,
searching for me.
And she looked inside the fissures,
wishing:
much clarity, no darkness,
calling me…

But the magic sentry
of shining jawbones,
eaten to the bone by the teeth
of thousand and one meat worms,
For the most degenerated action
of poisons of hatred and death,
this being, inert brain,
detained her, hysterical girl …

But she fled,
found assured her promise of calling me.
And she escaped,
found on fire her willing to love me.
Sensation
of knowing that she was the prey, fire and flesh,
and in the intense light of life she came to find me;
and she did.

Ella huyó - She fled (with ProgRockDan1)

As It Was

Unlike our previous two collabs, Dan does lyrics, vocals and lead guitars on an instrumental by me.
I made a 7/4 track for him, knowing he can sail odd waves, and here you are the fantastic result !!

Verse 1:
A promise was made
And It shouldn’t fade
The words were spoken
Then they was broken

We were in the bright sunshine
I thought she was mine
It’s not something you can pawn
And asa now she is gone

I was here forever beau
It was years ago

Verse 2:
But I thought it still held
Like a solid weld

A promise is a promise
Even for a doubting Thomas
It should carry some weight
It doesn’t have an expiration date

But a last I find
That things can unwind
And we are not together
In this Summer weather

Verse 3:
She made her assurance
But I had no insurance
From the broken promise she made
Yes our romance began to fade

Now I am in the dark
What was there was just a spark
Now I Don’t know
Which way to go

No direction in my life
Yes I’m living in such strife
Wondering if life means anything
My joy has no more spring

I am that sad guy you passed by
Not noticing the tears in his eyes

B E T R A Y A L (with Daniel Lockhart)

❤️❤️❤️ Thank You all so much for over 2000 plays of this collab track! ❤️❤️❤️

On may 2024 (so it's passed 6 months...) @belial-pelegrim presented to the world Taffeta 189 which can be found here >> https://soundcloud.com/belial-pelegrim/taffeta-189. A masterfully crafted piece from his unfinished story-driven musical series.
From the very beginning, this track fascinated me to such an extent that a melody immediately appeared in my head. In a burst of self-confidence, I asked the Master for the file of this song so that I could put my melodic ideas into it, just like I did with Donak RV's song https://soundcloud.com/r-u-r-pl/duo-melodica-rur-nylon-guitar-remix. And the strangest thing is, he willingly agreed to my idea!
So I tried it and here we are. It's been a while since then, but I think I've finally finished it. I sincerely hope that you will like the effect of this cooperation.

If you are intrigued by this song and you haven't heard the music of @belial-pelegrim yet, and you would like to listen to more (I assure you, it's really worth it!), please visit his profile for more!

To add my two cents to this track, I used the following plugins:
Free Spitfire LABS - Electric Piano - Chorus
Free Spitfire BBC SO Discover - Trumpets, Flutes and Oboes
Free Native Instruments Kontakt 8 Player
Free Heavyocity Foundations - Staccato Strings
Replika XT effect
Free iZotope Ozone 11 EQ
ujam UFX Reverb - which I got for free during the promotion after the publication of this plugin
and also received for free from Novation for their 30th anniversary - iZotope Ozone 9 Elements

Taffeta 189 (R.U.R.'s Melodic Mix)

Frank did the tune, I played a little flute and bass clarinet.

The Session

Lament For The Fallen

Out of the mud and the blood came the sound of a man crying.
For those that survived were stricken with guilt and pain and loss.

So much death and wanton destruction, so many lives cut short.
The innocent, the old, the frightened, the babes in arms.

All are fodder for the apocalyptic horsemen, riding, forever riding ...

Lillithe: Music composition and Production


Sunny Autumn Day

■概要(Overview)
雲の上まで続く断崖。
そこに設置されたエレベーター。
「最上階」には素晴らしい世界が広がっているらしい。
しかし、そこに行って帰ってきた人は誰もいないという。
「お客様、ようこそいらっしゃいました。(ウィィィィン・・　※妙な機械音)」
・・・・・・
そんな感じの曲です。

A cliff that extends above the clouds. An elevator installed there. 
They say a wonderful world unfolds on the "top floor." 
However, no one has ever returned from there.

"Welcome, dear guests. (Wiiiin... strange mechanical sound)" ...... 
That's the kind of song it is.

■歌詞
「エレベーター」

お客様ようこそ
いらっしゃいました
世にも珍しい
アトラクションです

超絶スピード　駆け上る　岩壁を
岩肌　打ち付けられながら　頂上めがけ
泣いても　叫んでも　転がり続ける

エレベーター in nature
エレベーター 岩壁のアトラクション


虹色のライトと
豪華な内装
外の世界から
「最上階」まで

超過重量は　投げ落とす　順番に
岩肌　踊り狂いながら　楽園めがけ
泣いても　叫んでも　かき消されるだけ

エレベーター in nature
エレベーター ワイルドなアトラクション


最上階は見渡す限りのお花畑
あらゆる苦しみ　無くなってゆく
極楽浄土


超絶スピード　駆け上る　岩壁を
岩肌　打ち付けられながら　頂上めがけ
泣いても　叫んでも　転がり続ける
転がり始めたら　転がり続ける
極楽浄土まで　転がり続ける

エレベーター in nature
エレベーター 岩壁のアトラクション


■Lyrics (Translated)
"Elevator"

Welcome, dear guests You have arrived At a rare attraction
Speeding up the cliffs at incredible speed Battering against the rock face, 
heading to the top Crying or screaming, they keep rolling

Elevator in nature Elevator, the cliffside attraction

Rainbow lights and luxurious interiors 
From the outside world To the "top floor"
Excess weight is thrown off, 
in order Dancing crazily along the rock face, 
aiming for paradise Crying or screaming, they are just drowned out

Elevator in nature Elevator, the wild attraction


The top floor is a flower field as far as the eye can see 
All suffering disappears In the heavenly paradise

Speeding up the cliffs at incredible speed Battering against the rock face, 
heading to the top Crying or screaming, 
they keep rolling Once they start rolling, 
they keep rolling All the way to paradise

Elevator in nature Elevator, the cliffside attraction

Point1:elevator(エレベーター)

Another one done from the album Wou-Wou & the Wormling, Bitzone, Stricknice, and I have been working on for almost 5 years now! You can definitely hear some of those 2020 themes in these songs. I feel like the world is starting to change and new themes will start emerging, so we had better finish up soon, lol. There are definitely two more songs from the set still to be released, and maybe a bonus track, and then we will be done…It has been a dream to work with these guys! I wonder what's next?

May everyone who’s looking, find an incredible team of musicians to work with.

Lyrics

Yo, this is your daily routine rap
4:30 already and it’s time to hit snooze cause you know waking up is wack
5:30 already and I am looking for excuse to get right back in the sack  
Gotta brush the teeth and I can’t forget the gums everyday I’m fighting that plaque 
Heading downstairs I’m already on the run to eat breakfast and pack a snack
Next to get dressed I always put the layers on to keep warm yet still look like a mac
Then I’m out the door one hour past dawn to get to work without catching no slack

Wake up
Time to wake up

Yo, time to hit the routine again
3:30 already and I should be off the clock but my boss said I had to work late
4:30 already and I gotta bust out daycare can no longer wait 
Gotta hit the drive through and get the kid a snack it’s been 2 hours since she last ate
CDs in the player for an hour of tunes you know rush hour traffic don’t abate
When I get home I take the dog for a walk so he can find a pole to finally liberate 
Then it’s time to cook dinner got no time to work out so you know I’m gonna pack on that weight

Wake up
Time to wake up

Yo, we’re not done yet
8:30 already need to get the kid ready for bed but she  still wants to play
9:30 already and kid still isn’t ready now we’re yelling cause there’s no other way
I wanna keep my cool but I’ve had it up to here and I just want to get on with the day
Dishes keep pilling and the laundry needs drying and the mess needs to all be put away
Instead I check out, binge a show, and stay up late even though tomorrow I’ll have to pay  
Then I fall asleep on the couch just to do it all again it’s all just a big cliche. 

Wake up
Time to wake up

It’s time to wake the fuck up

Wake Up!

Stricknice, Bitzone, Wou-Wou & The Wormling, and the Couch King - Wake Up!

Drizzling Rain

I'll catch you when you fall.

It’s evident that when such talented artists, who also happen to be my friends, join forces for a collaboration, the result is bound to be as extraordinary as their imagination. The vocals, graciously contributed by Rekha, are brimming with heartfelt emotion and vibrant energy. Her voice effortlessly guides the listener through a transcendental soundscape—a beautifully crafted auditory journey brought to life by the creativity and mastery of Delaflor & Midisound. Each element of their work blends seamlessly, creating a composition that feels both otherworldly and deeply moving, a reflection of their artistic synergy and vision. Congratulations! Best regards to all of You 😘

It took me a moment to connect with this song, but the energy is infectious bounding between the bass and sitar and Rekha's vocals. Superb production work in what looked to be a complex process.

Please enjoy my latest offering to you all. It is another seagoing inspired track. Over the years I have seen many deep ocean whales in their natural setting but only once have I seen a pod and it was awesome. There must of been at least twenty of them spread across the bow at distance. I immediately reported my sightings to the captain who immediately stopped engines.  He went on to explain that in this situation you have two choices you can go hard to starboard or port depending on our postion relative to the whales course or simply stop the engines and take in the view explaining the chances of seeing another pod this large is very remote. this all happened long before smartphones came along so we had no way of recording the event. This took place when I was nineteen and I am now 71 and it is a memory that has stayed with me all these years. So I say to all our fantastic young people .... You are at the stage in your life were you are creating your memories .... .don't waste a minute. Thank you all for the great support you give me.... love and peace..

Lyrik: (The English translation is below the German lyrics)
In der Tiefe meiner Seele
Liegt ein Traum aus alter Zeit
(liegt ein Traum aus alter Zeit)
Durch die Schatten, durch die Fehler
Führt ein Weg zur Helligkeit

Jeder Schritt bringt neue Fragen
(neue Fragen)
Doch mein Herz, es führt mich weit
(führt mich weit)

Denn das Licht in meinem Herzen
Brennt durch jede Dunkelheit
(brennt so hell durch Dunkelheit)
Was zerbrochen war wird heilen
In der Kraft der neuen Zeit
(in der neuen Zeit)

Manche Türen bleiben zu noch
Andre öffnen sich von selbst
(öffnen sich, ganz von selbst)
In dem Tanz von Licht und Schatten
Find ich was mich wirklich hält

Durch die Prüfungen des Lebens
(durch die Prüfungen)
Wächst die Weisheit Tag für Tag
(Tag für Tag)
Was ich gestern noch beweinte
Macht mich stärker als ich war
(stärker als zuvor)

Und das Licht in meinem Herzen
Strahlt nun heller als je zuvor
Was ich suchte liegt im Innern
Öffnet mir ein neues Tor
(ein neues Tor)

In der Stille find ich Klarheit
(finde Klarheit)
In der Liebe find ich Ruh
(finde endlich Ruh)

English translation:
In the depths of my soul
Lies a dream from ancient times
(lies a dream from ancient times)
Through the shadows, through the mistakes
There is a path to brightness

Every step brings new questions
(new questions)
But my heart leads me far
(leads me far)

Because the light in my heart
Burns through every darkness
(burns so brightly through darkness)
What was broken will heal
In the power of the new time
(in the new time)

Some doors remain closed
Others open by themselves
(open by themselves)
In the dance of light and shadow
I find what really holds me

Through the trials of life
(through the trials)
Wisdom grows day by day
(day by day)
What I wept yesterday
Makes me stronger than I was
(stronger than before)

And the light in my heart
Shines brighter than ever
What I was looking for lies within
Opens a new door for me
(a new door)

In the silence I find clarity
(find clarity)
In love I find peace
(finally find peace)

lyrics:
Hear my body scream, hear my soul is weak, i can't control anymore
i tried to set it free, i tried to tame this freak, but it's up to self control

and i will never learn and trust is hard to earn
as i lose my self again...

Bright lights calling me, neon life sets me free and i am right here to stay
The sun rise up again and i still understand the dues we have to pay

As I Lose My Self Again

Cast of characters:
Tea R. Sea @tea_are_sea -- Terry – Synthesizers, beats, composition
Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez– Fender Stratocaster electric guitar, mix, and production
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson Top T Classic
 electric wah guitar
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- Yamaha Genos 2 electric piano, tambourine, and triangle
K2 and the Three [and the Four] -- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1– Custom five-string fretless bass

This song started as a basic, yet melodically very strong composition by Terry involving him playing a synthesizer over a beat he created. He first shared it with Stephen, as they are regular collaborators in their project, Texas Tea, which are worth checking out on both of their pages, as well. Stephen then turned it over the the Eclectic Collective to work our magic on it.
  I was first up to the plate with this one, adding my deep, five string fretless bass to Terry's rudimentary beat. Ken was next up, however, adding the driving drum beat you hear, for which he used Terry's beat as a template and augmented a full kit sound to it. Stephen followed Ken, adding his striking wah guitar part to the whole thing. Tez was up soon after with his searing guitar soloing towards the end. Last, but certainly not least, JJ added the soulful electric piano you hear giving it a funk throughout, as well as the tambourine and the cool triangle dings. 
  Now that it was in the bag, we decided to ask Stephen to produce and mix it for us, which he did in his typical expert fashion, as well as the doing the mastering, too. However, Tez also did a production and mix that some of us are choosing to use instead, as a matter of taste, not quality. That is the one you'll find on my page.
  This is our holiday offering to all our fans, friends, colleagues, and peers. While it's not particularly a holiday song, it's a good display of where we are musically, and shows some of the flavor we want to add in the new year. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it. Happy holidays to you, and many happy returns!

Tree Tops [alternate Llampsych version] (Eclectic Collective with Tea R. Sea)

Merry belated Christmas to all.
Due to a little indulgence this year this track is a little late being released 
I hope you enjoy.

From Your Eyes feat. Frank Zozky & Paploviante

A diminutive woman in her 7th decade, Laurie is a dynamo of personality and energy living an outsized life as she still works, loves to travel, and when home, playing in our church band as a guitarist and sharing music as a multi-instrumentalist.  She is also a personal hero in how she powered through chemo, invasive surgery, then radiation to arrest the progress of a rare cancer.  She would tell you it was by the Grace of God, but I would quickly add He worked in concert with her faith and "joie de vivre" of which she has an abundance.  Not knowing what to give her for her birthday and Christmas (a month apart), I gave her a song with her band nickname as the title.  For you, "Laurie Lou" my dear friend, guitar sister, and bandmate:)

The incredible Harry Jacobson joins me on this funky groove oriented fun jam, with a quirky intro and outro.
Harry is well known not only for his distinct masterful electric guitar blues-rock style, but also for his delightfully stinging guitar tones that sustain and blossom into beautiful overtones and harmonics.  
Enjoy the ride!

I like Soundcloud because it's a friendly community for sharing our music. When I like your music, I say how it affected me, maybe something about how you wrote, performed or produced it. I have musically diverse interests: pop/rock songs, jazz-rock fusion/prog instrumentals; acoustic guitar. Main instrument is guitar, I'm not a keyboard player or singer, but hopefully I can do enough there to make my work sound ok.
