SLINKY (Audric Jankauskas/William Paasche-2021)

I recorded this when covid kicked off, last year here in Oz.

Basically just turned government messaging into the lyrics of the song.
At first i thought it kinda sucked and didn't bother releasing it.
But after adjusting the mix and playing around with the arrangement i've grown a lot more fond of it.
Hope you enjoy, and thanks for listening/feedback :)

April Fools Funk Featuring MasterPe on Guitar

Check out this new original Right There with Craig Schmoller doing his beautiful thing on both guitar and bass.  Cooking from the opening, Craig takes off with an incredible series of solos.  What a player.  And when he heard the track I sent him, laid down such a fine bass line to complement the track.   This is Craig's mix.  We're digging the sound!

Follow Craig's sweet music:  https://soundcloud.com/craigschmoller and his superb YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/user/grov6land

Thanks too for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares

Right There - with Craig Schmoller / guitar and bass

Light and Shade

This original has now the wonderful basslines with that signature sound of Mirko Borach, aka Stringburner  https://soundcloud.com/stringburner. Proud to add this to the long list of our collaborations, including our 2018 album release of The Hypersonic Factor. 

This track has different sides, a lighter and darker side. Optimism, unease and melancholy can be found in four different parts, coming together as in life... Light and Shade.
As always my music is centered around the guitar as main instrument, my trusted companion in expressing my moods and feelings. This time the electric guitar. Because it can howl, growl and weep.

I hope you will enjoy this music and as always I really enjoy your likes, comments and shares.

Let's go out for dinner!

Lago di Garda

Let’s go take the train Stazione Verona
Through Peschiera to 
Desenzano del Garda
Stepping out down Via Angela Merici 
His proud white linen shirt
Her Polka dot blue twirling skirt

They sip two cool glasses of Montonale
And someone lights a pair of Nazionale

Lago di Garda, Lago di Garda

Gentle breeze – the invincible heat
The menu propaganda
Draws them to their favourite seats
“Salute!” toast the peninsular silhouette
Their table is the stage 
The lake a debut movie set

They taste the foil-baked bream with lemon garlic oil
Savour Lugana San Vigilio

Hitch a launch – home - across the purple depths 
That turn to Emerald
Upon the clefting keel

Shots of Mantovani Limonchello
Dark blue mountains watch the scene below

Oh Christmas Tree

Since I started one-man band music on SC, I realized how exciting it is to play the bass. So I wanted to compose and play a song in which the bass plays the lead.
Although it took some effort, I really enjoyed playing. 
I used Jazz base made by Fender Japan.

OCHTENDGLOREN | Short Tales Part V

“Ochtendgloren” is a great Dutch word meaning “Dawn”. But in a more poetic sense, it has a sense of optimism, it holds a promise of a beautiful day to come. The morning dawns on the horizon...
The track travels through several different fields and textures, traveling acoustically through many different styles, I feel it’s hard to categorize where this would land in an overall description, but I guess World fusion comes closest. But it contains elements of classical, Jazz, flamenco, Latin, pop, rock, blues.

I play my Flamenco Negro guitar again in a setting of a guitar trio. In form it can be considered as a continuation of my Short Tales series. The lead guitar has long sections that are improvised over the bed of the two accompanying guitars.

I hope you will enjoy this fifth Short Tale and as always I really enjoy your likes, comments and shares. -Dan

The Breakbeat Junkie Vs DJP - A Fifth Of Fernandez

can’t say goodbye, just good riddance to this year and glad for the departure. no fond farewell, au revoir, wiedersehen or さようなら to 2020. in the words of Ray Charles, just hit the road and don’t you come back no more, no more.

in spite of quarantine lockdowns and turmoil i’m grateful to have had the inspiring music of so many wonderful soundcloud musicians who kept on playing and creating music throughout a difficult year. special thanks to hitoshi yasui of chairhouse for his daily musical gems and for allowing us to create our versions of his beautiful piano music. looking forward to a better 2021 and wishing everyone a happy, healthy, peaceful and musical new year. play on friends. 

this orchestration and mix is by guillaume pearson, guitar arrangement & SFX by naldo, original song written by hitoshi yasui of chairhouse. his lovely piano version can be heard here: https://soundcloud.com/chairhouse/cant-say-goodbye-yet-419

close your eyes, it's a movie without pictures. the intro voice is Celia Johnson from the film Brief Encounter directed by the great David Lean. the cover art is Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard in their goodbye scene at a 1945 London train station.

Can't Say Goodbye

We've got to get this under control.  What lies ahead?  Please do your part.

What Lies Ahead?

Music, lyrics and vocals by Irina

Even in Russian this title can be interpreted differently, to say nothing of the English translation. But this is what we like - freedom of imagination :) Hope you enjoy the song.

От твоего взгляда веет холодом
Осталась я одна с простывшим городом
Век живи и век учись
Тупость требуют на бис
Но ведь мне было так приятно верить

Снова ты и снова кризис
Как страдает мой душевный бизнес
Сердце просит выходной
Возвращается домой
Тихо замедляю темп
Не танцую я контемп
За собой дверь затворю
Ухожу пока тебя люблю

Пропущу звонки и сообщения
Как же я устала от общения
Пожар бушует в голове
Сжигаю мысли о тебе
А ведь мне было так приятно верить

Снова ты и снова кризис
Как страдает мой душевный бизнес
Сердце просит выходной
Возвращается домой
Тихо замедляю темп
Не танцую я контемп
За собой дверь затворю
Ухожу пока тебя люблю

Интересней пообщаться со стеной
Чем пустые темы обсуждать с тобой
Оставляя политес
Ликвидирую абсцесс
Надоело придумывать happy end-ы

Снова ты и снова кризис
Как страдает мой душевный бизнес
Сердце просит выходной
Возвращается домой
Тихо замедляю темп
Не танцую я контемп
За собой дверь затворю
Ухожу пока тебя люблю

--------------------------------

I feel the coldness of your glance
Left alone with the cold city
The longer you live the more you know
Stupidity is being called for an encore
But it was such a pleasure to believe

You again - a crisis again
Oh, how the business of my soul suffers
The heart is asking for a holiday
It is coming back home
Quietly I slow down the tempo
I do not dance contemporary
Will close the door behind me
I am leaving while still loving you

I will miss calls and messages
How tired I am of communication
Fire roaring in my head
I am burning the thoughts of you
I took so much pleasure from believing

You again - a crisis again
Oh, how the business of my soul suffers
The heart is asking for a holiday
It is coming back home
Quietly I slow down the tempo
I do not dance contemporary
Will close the door behind me
I am leaving while still loving you

It is more interesting to talk to a wall
Than to discuss empty topics with you
Leaving politesse behind
I remove the abscess
Tired of making up happy endings

You again - a crisis again
Oh, how the business of my soul suffers
The heart is asking for a holiday
It is coming back home
Quietly I slow down the tempo
I do not dance contemporary
Will close the door behind me
I am leaving while still loving you

The painting shows my hometown, the city of Tsukuba, Ibaraki prefecture, Japan, the place that I will forever hold dear in my heart.

I know you must be busy
And life cannot be easy
To find the energy to go on

The night unfurls its splendor
My thoughts are sweet and tender
Hoping we can chat when you logon

君に会いたい
声を聞きたいです
少しでも会えたら
嬉しい

どこ に います か
隠れないで
帰って きます か
My heart is online


The night turns into morning
Melancholy is boring
WiFi is dead, our networks misaligned

I overthink, I stutter
Under my breath I mutter
If only I could see what's on your mind

君に会いたい
声を聞きたいです
少しでも会えたら
嬉しい

どこ に います か
隠れないで
帰って きます か
My heart is online

------------------------

chorus:

I want to see you
I want to hear your voice
Would be happy to meet even just for a bit

Where are you
Don't hide
Will you come back?
My heart is online
