It took me 10 years to finish this song...I think it's because I needed a decade to fully understand how I feel about the deaths of close family and friends...

Heros (In Memorium)

Magic Woman

First movement of the Agrippa suite - Earth: D minor in 12/8; BPM is at 200; sonata form (second motif in A minor; repeated in D minor).

Agrippa - Earth

Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa (1486 - 1535)
His most important work, “De Occulta Philosophia”, describes all kinds of natural and demonic magic:

“De Occulta Philosophia
Cum triplex sit mundus, elementalis, coelestis et intellectualis, et quisque inferior a superiore regatur ac suarum virium suscipiat influxum, ita ut ipse Archetypus et summus Opifex per angelos, coelos, stellas, elementa, animalia, plantas, metalla, lapides, Suae omnipotentiae virtutes exinde in nos transfundat, in quorum ministerium haec omnia condidit atque creavit.”

This suite is done in for movements as follows:

First movement - Earth: D minor in 12/8; BPM is at 200; sonata form (second motif in A minor; repeated in D minor).
Second movement - Water: D minor in 12/8; BPM is at 200; key change to F major.
Third movement - Air: D minor in 12/8; BPM is at 200; Minuet and Trio form (trio in D major).
Fourth movement - Fire: D minor in 12/8; BPM is 1t 200; ground base; some motif reprise from first movement.

Instrumentation is all over the place.

Psychedelic Auk Number 2 in E Minor

When Annie (https://soundcloud.com/annie-dieu-le-veut) worked on her entry for Tarot card 20 The Judgement, some issues in things vocals had to be solved. Hear her version here (https://soundcloud.com/annie-dieu-le-veut/21-the-judgement). 
She allowed me to use the material, and I dare to do a remix with two versions of vocals overlapping /interwoven, giving (imho) a nice musical richness while certainly sacrificing clarity of enunciation.

The World Below

Being musician and artist "since ages", the last two decades and all the developments in digital music broadened my interests and activities in doing music actively and passively. Not being shy of any genre (OK, leave off some Punk and Extreme Metal derivates) I engage in composing, arranging, mixing and collaborating. 

Oh, and I do all my artwork and designs as well. And as you may notice I regard AI as a friendly helper.

Have a few looks & listens into my repertoire and eventually gain some insights. I'm always open for collabs if the the interests match ...

A long time ago in a place far, far away I was in a band. Now I make music in a DAW (Logic Pro).

You can find additional music here:

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.
