I was in love with West Side Story from age 5 on. 
This is a free interpretation of Somewhere.

Original soundtrack from West Side Story written by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. 

Edit: I am so sad Stephen Sondheim died a few days after this release. So I declare this interpretation as my tribute to him. Thank you so much for your everlasting romantic poetry Mr. Sondheim. Rest in peace.

Somewhere From West Side Story Covered By Neli CoKo

An emotional short-lived symphonic piece in which the instruments intertwine their melodies to create a dramatic, mysterious, and unique sidereal atmosphere.

Una emotiva pieza sinfónica de corta duración en la que los instrumentos, entrelazan sus melodías para crear una dramática, misteriosa, y singular atmósfera sideral.

Theme composed by: Joaquín Soriano                                 

Production: Solar Vox Studio Ltd

Hope

Had a dream last night
the sun above us was shining bright
all the black clouds gone
on what we've waited for so long

Please don't say that I'm naive
and there is no hope at all
without hope there's no relief
even though it's very small

November, drizzling rain
feeling sad, still feel the pain
but there's some blue between the grey
and you'll see the sun will find its way

Please don't say that I'm naive
and there is no hope at all
without hope there's no relief
even though it's very small

Hope

My old mac  dieth a death so here's a bit of a kitchen table bash around .   My fingers are not what they were so i play what i can find.  someday I'll probably wind up bashing out a beat with my head on the refrigerator and singing along. I hope you are all well. If you're dead you'll obviously know it's nothing to worry about...                                I woke up this morning or at least I think that I did...I found my medication and I wrestled with the lid....my bathroom mirror is telling me that I'm not half the man I used to be.....

. I've got a hole in my gut I'm really feeling my age, I'm paying the price for my wicked little ways, I was out last night with a woman from the moon, she says that better days are coming and they're coming soon but I ain't half the man I used to be.

Half the Man. ( Stevek )

I tried to have some fun while making this

The Sermon!

In 1959 Candi and I went to kindergarden in the same class. We lived three blocks from each other. We graduated from highschool in the same class. There were other kids in that class that I graduated with. Families didn't move much like they do today. Candi went on to become a fabulous painter and still lives in the house she grew up in, while I can't count how many times I moved. I found out recently she isn't feeling good and is having a hard time. So I do what I do and I record music. Everyone should have their own music.

This Finnish pop-tune is composed by Jukka Kuoppamäki.
I played it with 7-string electric guitar.

The Dark Afterglow is an art project which was founded in 2011 by the austrian musician Alexander Herzog, born 1991. He writes, records and designs everything on his own as a one-man-factory. His songwriting is very spontaneous and instinctive. All tracks are written and recorded at his home with the most minimal equipment you could find to keep the truth of music at the highest point.
