wonderfully ecclectic. Rekha really nails it :-)

this is a classic song. how can you not like Karen Carpenter..the vocals here are great and keep in touch with the original and the music is creative and alters the song enough to be "modern" but keeps the feel for me.

heard thls at Rekha's--- gets better wlth every llsten--really a subllme  and boggllng undertaklng--:)

an exceptional cover-this has just what I look for in a cover...being very different from the original is just what I want

Wonderful organic-sounding cover song with originality! Great collaboration! Congrats!

this is such a great song to cover, especially with her vocals. what great job you two do with it. highly listenable and impressive!

Mixed for Paploviante

PeaceLoveAndHarmony

Like a change in the weather
There’s a storm on the rise
All around the world now
In people’s hearts and minds

When we all get together you know it’s true
There ain’t nothing we can’t do
For me, for you and the whole world too

You know if doesn’t have to be
A world of rich and poor
Somewhere in the middle now
Is the key to evermore

This world could be a paradise
If we all could learn to play nice
It’s time to start making up
Stop trying to blow each other up

Then you know there will be
Peace, love and harmony
For me, for you and the whole world too
The whole world too
Ah come on now

Solo

I know it sounds a bit naive 
But think of it like this
If something isn’t done soon
Well we’ll all be in a fix

So come on lets talk it over
Find some common ground
Make this world a better place
Spread the love around, all around the town
Then you know there will be
Peace, love and harmony
For me, for you and the whole world too
For me, for you and the whole world too
The whole world too
The whole world too
Yea

Lyrics:

Against the Wall

I can see the night is over now
I cannot see the angry man 
Beside you anymore
I cannot take care of me
I cannot hide behind a tree
I feel it's all in silence now
The way I am
The way I am

I was never reaching
Never reaching farer
And I was never reaching far away

I was never reaching far away
And I was never reaching far away

But sometimes I am feeling small

But sometimes I am feeling small

Against the wall

I can feel the chains are falling down
Pure taste of freedom under Zaykon's Crown
Creating virtual reality
My universe is a computer
I dare to see
Let me program a new identity
Is this the key
Is this the key

But sometimes I am feeling small
Against the wall
Against the wall

Against The Wall 2022

I have allways been fascinated by the similar basic groove in traditional folk music from all over europe and even beyond. Its like we can sense the blood pumping in our common veins whether we have roots in Norway,Idaho or Ukraine.
I have tried to capture some of that with my digital composing tools to create this little piece of Folktronica titled BONFIRE NIGHTS.

This is a cover song that Rekha and I did.  It's a Carpenters track and we held on to most of the original arrangement but took some creative license otherwise 

For me the Carpenters are like John Denver or the 80's hair metal scene - something I enjoy but don't tell just a whole lot of people about.   Doing this one was Rekha's idea and I think she nailed it.   This track is brought to life by her killer performance.  

There's a guitar intro to this thing here.

Another note - I personally want to dedicate this track to my good friend and synth-master Steve Fullyard (@steve-fullyard) who married his lovely bride K very recently. I wish them both all the happiness they can handle.

Lyrics
We've only just begun to live
White lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we're on our way
(We've only begun)
Before the risin' sun, we fly
So many roads to choose
We'll start out walkin' and learn to run
(And yes, we've just begun)
Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watchin the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day
Together
And when the evening comes, we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow
(And yes, we've just begun)
Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watchin' the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day
Together
Together
And when the evening comes, we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow
And yes, we've just begun

Compose & Produced, Recorded & Performed, Mixed & Mastered at IYERN [Fe] Reocords in CANADA.

A song about how the Queen is ever so proud and endlessly intoxicated...she is in a state of elated-ecstasy because of the miraculous fact that her King is a Good King, born to instil goodness on earth and beyond.  She will follow her Good King until the end of time...She has nothing but deep spiritual soul to soul devotion-admiration for her one and only beautiful King & of course the feelings dwell inside her, the passion fire never ending but rather only escalating. The almighty Lord Shiva says destruction will never win! One could believe that Shiva is King and his loyal goddess wife-is Parvati Queen. Hope you all enjoy this cosmic number!

RAPTURE - Music & Vocal Improv's - REKHA IYERN [Fe] | Electro Space Dance

Now rest your head and close your eyes
Sweet darling don’t you cry
I am right here by your side

leave the troubled world outside
In the morning
I know things will be alright

Maybe I’m too naïve but when I look at you I still believe
Together we’ll get through the night

I’ve seen you struggle with your fears
And I look beyond your tears
I have seen the way you try 

You took the chance to have it all 
And you were not afraid to fall
But were afraid that you would fly

Maybe I’m too naive but when I look at you I still believe
W e can reach the sky

Let’s Give it one more try
We’ll rise up to find new heights
Spread our wings and aim towards the sky
Hang on and we’ll take flight

You taught me how to start again  
What it means to be a friend
When I felt so all alone 

You showed me what it means to love
And how it feels to be loved
 A thing not everybody knows

If I could only be just half of what you see in me
I would know where I belong

Taking Flight

sonder

Built around a recording of an alarm forming the audio background to a hospital visit. Musings on dementia.

Turbulent word streams, erratic coherence
Urgent meanings frustratingly mislaid
Inner sense to outer muddle [innocence]
Interface to inner struggle [in your face]
Fragmented paranoia, translucent target, floating beyond the grasp of balanced conscience
Unviolated nuance beyond interpretation
Disjointed intelligence, resentful agitation

Agitation

downtown

Hiraeth discovered her power one day while staring up at the sky, lost in thought. As she concentrated, she noticed a small, white cloud slowly drifting across the blue expanse. She found that she was able to move the cloud slowly across the sky, just by her thinking about it. Excited by her discovery, she tried again and again, each time with more focus, until the clouds were dancing to the rhythm of her mind.
