love died on the road taken from my album tales of generation x
After a long year of traveling the world making films and recording i decided it was time to finally record new songs and get my album finished and go back to producing myself .
this song came about after a recent trip to spain and the inspiration is not about the death of love but more about leaving your inner troubles and demons behind on the road and starting again..we can live many different lives in the time we got but its how we chose to live and lead them

Light Up the Night

Fascinating day

L’observateur observé. Un genre de méditation sonore où J’ai voulu mélanger différents genres musicaux avec vers la fin une intervention de Taf, mon ami Sénégalais qui a posé sa très belle voix, c’est un voyage « Inside » car il se passe beaucoup de choses à l’intérieur de notre cerveau humain, entre le conscient le subconscient, le supra conscient, à la fin ça fait beaucoup de monde et ils ne sont pas toujours tous d’accord, on dirait même que des fois il se prennent la tête l’un dit quelque chose, l’autre dit autre chose.
Mais puisqu’en nous subsiste un infini espace d’une grande profondeur où règne la paix, le calme, le silence parfois comme un guide qui nous emmène ailleurs, vers l’invisible, peut être vers cette énergie cosmique, vers les étoiles, vers la lumière, plus haut, plus loin….

voix Sénégalaise à la fin du morceau : Taf

Une initiative, émotive, passive
Un rêve éveillé
Une bouée qui dérive
au flux et courant des marrées
Sans jamais s’échouer

Croire à son étoile
Connecté à ses pensées
La main posée sur la toile
Libre et se laisser guider
Retrouver un peu d’espoir
De magie de coté

C’est vrai, tu as raison
Je vais maintenant, t’écouter
Si mes tourments te gênent
Je les enverrai en recommandé

Tous ces déserts, amers
N’auront plus aucun effet
Dérision d’éther
Etrange et sur mon caractère

inside

A chuga- chuga good time blues song (ZZ Top meets Chuck Berry) about not indulging in vices. Also, race car driving.

Lyrics:
Hey friends, you know I need to give up drinking
It's tearing up my guts
But still, I'm over eating
It leaves me so perplexed
I've got to give up that 
Marijuana
It makes me malleable
Lackadaisical
Like a slow-motion hex
I've got to give up this pornography
Because it's fucking up my sex

(chorus) Oh, you've got to give up a little something
To get yourself a little bit more(2X)

Take that race car around the bend
Put the hammer down
This could be the end?
Or maybe it could be good fortune shining on your door!

I've got to stop spending so much time on the internet
It makes my attention small
I never, ever finish what I start
I've got to give up these perfumed flavored vapes
The smell reminds me
Of the woman who were 
'In love' 
With me
But now they are
'In hate'
I've got to give up the women with dark circles under their eyes
The nighttime lies
That I take
And I paint
In my darkest arts

I've got an extremely high tolerance for risk
It's more than I can take
(yeah)
Tell my friends and family
To book me a heavy metal band
For my wake
I'm gonna say to everybody
Hey, do you see that coming?
That's my Mojo rising
On the horizon
Stop criticizing
I'm just waiting for my big break
(chorus)

Take that race car around the bend
Drop the hammer down
It could be the end?
With self control
You could get the win!
You've got to give up a little something
To get yourself a little bit more...

More! (or) How I learned To Get Ahead

You said,
no one would ever love me
like you did
I'm so glad you were right
I've seen the light

You said, 
I'm nothing without you 
I know now that's not true
I am more than I have ever been
without you

ohhhh

It's okay ...
I believe what you didn't say ...

It was what you didn't say 
that is the crystal clear truth
You quote the bible like a Prophet 
but drink a 100 proof
You never said you were a coward 
a shape-shifter of the truth 
You never said you would do the best you can 
You never said you were
a one woman man


You said,
 I was the apple of your eye
Is that right ?
My My My
Boy... please...
Did you forget about your side piece?
cause you kept looking at your phone
When you thought you were alone
 I should have  known....

You said,
a lot of things
and now I recognize
big lies, little lies 
lies of every size

It's okay ...
I believe what you didn't say ...

It was what you didn't say 
It's okay ...
I believe what you didn't say ...

It was what you didn't say 
that is the clear crystal truth
You quote the bible like a Prophet 
but drink 100 proof
You never said you were a coward 
a shape-shifter of the truth 
You never said you would do the best you can 
You never said you were
a one-woman man

You said
no one would ever love me
like you did
I don't mind...
I'm so glad you were right this time

you said ...you said

You said
no one would ever love me
like you did
I don't mind...
I'm so glad you were right this time

you said...you said
You said...

You Said

The bailiff says...ALL RISE

The Judge sits down
He's dressed in black
A woman on the stand
She's got a wedding band 
on her left hand

He says to the courtroom, take a seat
Nods to the woman, says Ma'am,
 you may proceed

Her lawyer is on fire

He layed it all out bare
he argued all of the ways her husband didn't care
Juror number 4 is thinking about now
Even God knows, he doesn't have a prayer....

He says...
This woman you married
She stands before me now
she says you disappeared her dreams
She testified, you took a knife to her dreams 
that does sound a little extreme 
but now, she wants to make you bleed

He says, sir...
Your word is your bond, 
How do you plead
How do you respond?

The jury's starin' him down
sweat running down his back
He's trying to put a lid on an anxiety attack
it's hard to make up an excuse
when deep down he knows the truth 
he knows, he knows...

He simply says...In my defense,
 I have no defense 
I'm guilty, guilty as a man can be

Guilty
Guilty 
Guilty
Guilty as a man can be


The Judge says,  "Im taking in to account,
 all of her dreams that died at your hand,  as the law demands
Son,  you used a knife
I'm going to have to sentence you to life"


The judge bangs the gavel
And the courtroom is rattled
He says "Guilty as charged"
the courtroom goes dark

guilty
guilty
guilty as a man can be 
guilty
guilty
He's guilty as a man can be...

He opens his eyes
to his surprise
his wife is asleep by his side
He realizes It was all a bad dream 
but he knew what he'd seen

He whispers to his sleeping wife..
I just wanna live my life with you
Your dreams matter to me too 
I don't wanna break your heart
I don't wanna make you cry
I just wanna love you for the rest of your life

I don't want to be guilty
guilty
guilty
guilty as a man can be
guilty
guilty
He's guilty as a man can be....


guilty guilty guilty...
guilty
guilty
He's guilty as a man can be...

Rosewood - Solo version - (Collaborative alternative version with Jörg S on Sax in description)

The world spins fast you're left behind 
What once was sharp is now confined 
The fire fades the embers wane 
Hang up your coat it’s the end of the game

Hang up you’re coat

Im comin on 
gonna reach your door 
baby before dawn

shes running hot 
Im gonna give you baby

ride with me baby
all night long
ride with me baby
all night long

freight train lover
freight train lover 
freight train lover

FREIGHT TRAIN LOVER

Don’t Say Those Words is an emotional song about the fear of losing someone you love. The lyrics plead for silence instead of goodbye, capturing the pain of an ending relationship. With a gentle melody and heartfelt vocals, it expresses vulnerability, hope, and the desire to hold on just a little longer.

Don't say those words

Music has always been my companion, and while I never mastered traditional instruments, dance became my way of feeling rhythm—through breakdance, salsa, hip-hop, and ballet. Now, with AI technology, I can finally translate those movements into melodies, crafting both uplifting pop tunes and soulful R&B tracks that tell deeper stories. This journey is my way of connecting, inspiring movement, and evoking emotions. Just hit Play and join me!
