This is an extract of the music that goes with the 4th chapter of the tale I'm writing. I just published it here: https://ariad-music.com/textes/aventures-petit-personnage-sans-tete/chapitre-4-danse/ It is in french, but I guess google translate or deepl can do a decent job for translating. This is the story of a headless character who explores the world of dreams in order to find again his head. In this fourth chapter, he's abandoned by his companion the creative bird and will be ordered to work, like everyone else! This music is quickly made using simply MIDI/VST tracks.

Despite it happening over a hundred years ago, the sinking of The Titanic is a subject which continues to fascinate.  Many may believe the ship’s misfortune in striking an iceberg was the simple reason for her demise but the true story is a catalogue of human error.  Investigation of the circumstances have unearthed a plethora of  mistakes that in their own way, all contributed to the disaster.  

In 1985, a secret mission to find the wrecks of two nuclear submarines unwittingly discovered that of The Titanic and since that time, ongoing scientific expeditions have discovered that the metal structure has created a species of bacteria that will eventually consume the entire ship, recycling the nutrients into the ocean ecosystem.  You can’t fight Mother Nature.  And you can’t fight those who'll always spot a way of making huge amounts of profit, no matter the grisly events from which they evolve. 

By 1998, tickets were put on sale at $32,500 each for tourists to view the remains and since then, fewer than 250 people have visited the site.  By 2021, OceanGate, who owned the Titan submarine, were offering tours to view said remains at a cost of up to $250,000 per person.  

Whilst understanding the continued scientific interest, I do find it macabre that the graves of those killed aboard Titanic, many from poor backgrounds, should become a tourist playground for the rich and privileged. That isn't to say I wasn’t glued to the news, hoping for a positive outcome in the rescue bid for those aboard the Titan sub.  It was deeply upsetting to discover that they had perished.  Some five years before the fatal implosion, specialists had warned OceanGate that the venture could very possibly end in such a disaster, yet I very much doubt the occupants, who had paid so much, were made aware of the fact.

I wanted to write a song that reflected how little we have learned in the century or so between Titanic and Titan.  It seems that, for rich and poor alike, the arrogance of greed will always be with us. (Terry Reeves)

(For those wondering what ‘CQD’ means, it was the first signal the wireless operator aboard Titanic used to call for assistance and means “All Stations.  Distress!” Later though, he did also transmit the more universally used code, ’SOS’). 
 
Underwater tour, down in deep watery waves
Two hundred and fifty thousand to visit the graves
The ghosts of 3rd class continue to descend 
Death has no pleasure, haunting message to send

Can’t believe 
No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x4)

Sad moments of time forgotten names of the past
Imagine the screaming ending in silent broadcast 
Locking caged doors using padlocks and chains
No consideration given to lower class remains

Can’t believe 
No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x4)

CQD, CQD, CQD, CQD….

Can’t believe 
No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x4)
 
The rich need to own hold what no one else has
A brief chance to look down on the poor and the sad?
Excepting the science knowing lessons to learn
But not for amusement boasting others to yearn

Can’t believe 
No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x4)

Arrogance sank ‘Titanic’ built for luxury and speed
Now laying very static on the bottom of the sea
Arrogance imploded the ‘Titan’ Carbon submarine 
Sadly reminding too much money can be obscene

Can’t believe,  No I can’t believe 
Can’t believe,  No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x12) 

Can’t believe, Can’t believe 

CQD, CQD, CQD, CQD….

Like we used to
---------------
We don't play in gigs like we used to
We don't play in the streets like we used to
We don't hang out in squares like we used to
and we don't drink ice cold beers like we used to

and now we grew up, became strangers we fell on trap 
and the days are not the same, like we used to...used to

We don't jam at all, like we used to
we don't grill outside the yard, like we used to
we don't party as friends like we used to
we don't say hello like we used to....used to

and now egos stood up, became cold and all that crap
and the years are not the same, like we used to...used to!

Like We Used To

David Z. a.k.a. @BlackMarketBrains and I previously collaborated on one other track that I have posted to my page (After the Bomb), and a handful of tracks that he has posted to his page (3 different remixes of a work in progress from me called Metallic, and a response to my open collab, Social Fabric)...

I'm happy to share this new one that I developed based on an open collab of his called Doc Avalanche Goes BeatBeatBeat! https://soundcloud.com/blackmarketbrains/doc-avalanche-goes-beatbeatbeat-open-collab

I love the original title but chose to simplify it a little bit. 

Hopefully more to come from the two of us!

Collab with Her Musical Highness Damga, based on a sequence of melancholic chords and an Electric Piano bridge.
Lyrics:
"Waves of Isolation, I sink in the ocean of your venomous dreams.
In the cold dark water, I wake up to the beauty of your abyss.
There is a shark looming from the depth. 
My lateral line sense its fluid moves, as I crave for his kiss.

Waves of evolution, I emerge from the amniotic fluid of time.
I walk on the primordial sea shore, toward the dereliction of dawn.
Your crawling monsters follow my footprints on the dark sand.
I cherish my last scales and the iridescent mark they’ve drawn.

Waves of civilization, the ancient realm rise from the ground.
I ride the marble streets followed by soldiers and priests.
The glory of my victorious spear shines in the dawn of civilization.
Following my undefeated army, come the prisoners and the beasts.

Waves of emotion, I shiver under your photonic chords
Lost in the maze of counterpoints, I behold the astral serenity  of your hymn.
Sensual melodies electrify my spine and linger on my lips
I bite in the flesh of sounds, bath in the fragrance of rhythms

Waves of sublimation, triumphant and aroused, I wake up from your dream.
Your body besides me is warm and still,  gently breathing in a silver slumber.
I curl up in your warm naked strength and savor the scent of your skin.
An the night flowers, heavy with dew, weep for desire, drop by drop silently."

“This is a song about being madly in love and soul mates. It is inspired by Foo Fighters, Weezer, Eve 6, Jimmy Eat World and Green Day.” 

TELL ME YOU ARE THERE FOR ME 

Tell me you are there when I need you 
Tell me you’ll be right there
When I call
When I shout out loud 
Tell me you are there when I need you 
I know you’re there for me and I feel the same 
Tell me you are there for me

I need you in this moment 
I called you all night
I like it when you talk to me
Can you tell that I like you too? Is it obvious? 
Am I living proof? 
I’m scratching right at your door, yeah 

I know you feel the same
We are made this way
To others it makes no sense
For me it’s evident
That soul mates are alive, are alive 
And all heartbreak is waiting in line 

That soul mates are alive

What To Say

Contact e mail carlocovarelli@gmail.com
I make music using my smartphone, but now i started to use a PC program called Reason. I have been trying to express my love for music since I was born. I fed on the words and sounds of Italian singer-songwriters, Italian and international rock; later I was completely seduced by electronic music. Starting from
Jean-Michel Jarre I tried to go back to the fathers
such as Oskar Sala, John Cage, Karlheinz Stockhausen. At the age of 12 I started DJing in the middle of the vinyl era and growing up I became a Resident DJ in several Italian Clubs. I started producing electronic music many years ago, but today what I want to do is play with the least amount of technology available. So know that everything you will hear I did with the use of my smart phone and Reason. Everything comes out of there. I want to take my creativity to the limit and I really hope you enjoy what I do.
