So beautiful! I was looking at an old photo from happy days some time ago. Some tears ran down my cheek and as they fell on the table in front of me, this very beautiful melody sounded!

DON'T YOU WAKE UP

This one has a bit of history that goes back to my collaborations with Nick ♤ https://soundcloud.com/nickrdavies

Poor Nick.  I tortured him so during these collaborations. I threw electronic nightmares from Electronica to Psy Trance at him.  He not only rose to the challenge; he turned these songs into something new and different. His songs that I had the pleasure of adding keyboards to, brought me to musical areas that, otherwise, I never would have ventured into.

Which brings us to this “Jazz-Like-Beast-Thing.” I’m not sure which one of came up with that expression, but it proved to be accurate.  It was supposed to be a follow up piece to our second collaboration “The Skeleton Improvement Conversation.” But seemingly random key and tempo changes were a bit much. I almost titled it “Have you got it yet?” after the legendary last attempt for early Pink Floyd to work with Syd Barrett. He would change the song every time they started to play. I imagine it felt a bit like that.  

So, the piece fell dormant for a few years. With Nick’s permission, I recently decided to give it a go on my own. Then I understood… it was nearly impossible to play along with. I fiddled, fettled, and eventually came up with something that would pass for guitar added to electric piano. It left me electrifried.

Nick, this is an homage to you. In no way is the “guitar” playing anything close to your skills, but I tried to channel you from across the miles. I look forward to the time when we can work together again. Until then, here’s that Jazz-Like Beast Thing… the stuff of your nightmares  :)

In My Dreams

When I close my eyes
I see you in my dreams
Every time I lay me down to sleep
I hear your voice
I see your face
I even feel your warm embrace

I taste your love
I feel your grace
I dream about a perfect place

I know your heart
And you know mine
Together we are fine
In my dreams 
In my dreams
In my dreams
In my dreams

You overflow me
With positive energy
You interact with me
Soul to soul
In my dreams

In my dreams
In my dreams
In my dreams
In my dreams

Your Dreams

In My Dreams (with Mirjam)

Aim at the pain

verdandi

Method: Reverb, hall and other effects … to move beyond  … beyond ….
Narration: Verdandi is braiding the black and white strains, the dark and bright light. She wishes she would not know which words pass through her hands. There she sits, near the root of the tree that is the world, next to the spring. She is aware that she is alive and not-alive and she drinks from the well without feeling thirsty. She has been weaving for a long time and will continue weaving for a long time, braiding the black and white strains.

Lyrics / copyright jo richter:

Die schwarzen und weißen Strähnen flicht
sie, das dunkle und helle Licht.
Ich wünschte, spricht sie, dass ich nicht
wüsste, was durch meine Hände spricht.

Am unteren Berg, nah der Wurzel,
da sitzt sie am Quellrand und webt.
Sie weiß, dass sie lebt und nicht lebt,
und sie trinkt ohne Durst aus dem Quell.

Seit wann? Seit urdenklichen Zeiten.
Wie lang? Noch unzählbare Zeit.
Die Fäden, sie reichen so weit,
sie würden Fremdhänden entgleiten:
Die schwarzen und weißen Strähnen flicht
sie, das dunkle und helle Licht.

verdandi

This is a song i wrote for the climate and its kind of a call and spiritual reminder for the global community to try and bring something together for a while again..
Just remember we all have it with-in our-selfs to try and help and heal others and be aware of our place on this planet that we all have to share and live on.
Unfortunately because of corporate and money making interests and influences its easy to forget what actually matters anymore ,most of us are too busy making money to survive to see what really matters anymore..
The environment is slowly being killed off everyday by what is taken for granted as everyday modern life such as transportation[pollution]
the rainforests cut down for profit and the ice caps melting away that help keep this planet stable ...its easy to think that hey i am safe today and i got my life the way it is ..but tomorrow that could all change ...
Im just a musician who makes sounds that lives in its own universe but i still feel ive got a part to play to at least sing whats on my mind

Woodstock

Track shows a very delicate theme and a quite hard-riffed part, both alternating and finally flowing up to an endless symphonic dream (words are half a poem I wrote previously (not these, but lyrics below)).

Letra  /  Translated lyrics:

No despiertes (Sólo un sueño)  /  Don’t you wake up (Only a dream)

No... despierta... no... no despiertes  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up
no, cuidado... no despiertes, na na na na na...  /  no, take care ... don’t you wake up, na na na na na…
... despierta al fin y date cuenta  /  ... wake up at last and realize
de que todo ha sido un sueño, na na na na na...  /  everything has been a dream, na na na na na...

Una vez más, nervios y resentimiento,  /  Once again, nerves and resentment,
todo en mi vida es sueño, sólo ha sido eso.  /  everything in my life is a dream, it has only been so.

Y de nuevo, con el tiempo,  /  And again, with time,
incubando un nuevo sueño,  /  incubating a new dream,
me voy hundiendo en mis propios brazos,  /  I am sinking in my own arms,
me acuno, me canto y me voy acostumbrando...  /  cradle myself, sing to myself and get used...

Otro escenario, otros personajes,  /  Another stage, other characters,
la misma historia, na na na na na...  /  the same story, na na na na na...
que durará un día, un milenio,  /  which will last one day, a millenium,
toda mi vida, na na na na na...  /  all my life, na na na na na...

Pero sin duda vendrán a despertarme  /  But undoubtedly the laughs of people
las risas de la gente, alguna tarde.  /  will come to wake me up, any evening.

Y entonces, con miedo...  /  And then, fearfully...

No... despierta… no… no despiertes (…)  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up (…)

No despiertes (Sólo un sueño)

War broke our lives to BEFORE and AFTER its start... Russian aggression has no boundaries, it's Universal. Our house happened to be on the war front line so our family had to leave behind our home and escape just to save our lives. We had spent 8 days in hell being under Russian missiles and bombs...
 In my "previous" life I used to create music and still have got some unreleased works.
 All the tracks are played, recorded and mixed on Yamaha Clavinova CVP505 without using any software.
Now I have no piano, no more chance to record music. The only sense of life is to survive. If you're Russian please don't follow me. We have nothing in common anymore. We'll never forgive you this disgusting bloody war against Ukrainian children. Each of you is GUILTY.
