Objects in the distant sun 
Blinding feared by everyone
Try and make your way back to your home again
No one here thinks they’re safe
They know the risks that they all take
But that does not matter to anyone
In between the moon and you
I look beyond the beauty view
And know that I won’t ever see it again 
Someone told me too wake up
I’m lost I fear that I’ll stay stuck
Here in this field for eternity

But I don’t want to comedown 
There’s too much panic in this town

Something’s taken hold of me
I’ve lost all sensibility
I know it’s not wright but it’s how it will be
Spent to long In this place 
Living with my mind in space
Now I have lost all sense of reality
There is a world that turns outside
I can’t runaway and hide
I know this is true and I’ll find my way back
Someone told me to wake up
I hear that voice and know that look
Everyone’s starring and wants me to be

But I don’t want to comedown 
There’s too much panic in this town

Comedown

Strings Of Love is a tribute to the pioneers of Disco and House and leads back to the roots of my own early days of Deejaying in the early 00's House era.

I also put emphasis on using autenthic instruments of the early House-Era in this mix: Drums (Roland TR-909), synthesizer and strings (Roland Jupiter-8), Bass Synth (Roland Juno-60) and the piano is the M1 from Korg.

The Vocal Mix is already in progress!

Fun cover of a classic from the great Lenny Kravitz...

Fly Away - COVER

We make promises 
that are not kept.
To love us, to be faithful to us,
until the last day. 

I'm torn inside 
Was i really that blind?  
My memories of good days 
Make me sad today

Reality dulls 

How could it get so far?
What has happened to us? 
All the questions that torment me 
When the time is up 

I'm torn inside 
Was i really that blind?  
My memories of good days 
Make me sad today

Reality dulls 

My world is broken.  
My dreams conjure up madness.  
The wheel of time keeps turning.  
My heart has to accept this 

I'm torn inside 
Was i really that blind?  
My memories of good days 
Make me sad today

lyrics:
We've been through a lot, a lot of shit
now it's time to fight, fight against
against this depression and evil vibe
this is the time we will take over our lives

We've been submersed deep deep down
we've lost our faith into this evil town
we have to get back, get back to our own feet
we had enough, enough with this shit!

and now we have our head up high
we know what it's true and never dies
and now we step up with god's command
we won't take it anymore, not get stuck into the sand

It won't take forever just to reach our dream
it won't take forever to delete the bad scene
it won't take forever to hold your hand
it won't take forever to the promised land

it won't take forever to live again
it won't take forever to face the sun
it won't take forever, it won't take forever!

Les Étoiles Endormies Dans La Crinière du Centaure (HyLGZ22 & Damga)

This song is again recorded with my phone. (Next probably a DAW song!) Motörhead has a cover of "Johnny B. Goode", so I Iistened to the original from the 50s! Chuck Berry Rock ‘n Roll. The intro is great, there are more songs with similar intros. They are so cool that I wanted to learn them at the end of last year and did. In this song, I just use my version of it as the intro. I play it a little lower so it's appropriate for my song. The last chord of the intro is the 1st chord of my song, except I play it as a power chord instead of a major chord. Some of my intro version is pretty much like the original, some is my version. It's really fun to play with these Rock ’n Roll intros, I could do it for hours. In one of the covers of the songs with these intros, the one with Beethoven in the title, there's an orchestral version of Beethoven's famous symphony at the beginning. I wanted that too, but of course only on my guitar, so I made up a guitar version of it and put it in front of the Rock ‘n Roll intro. Only after that my own song begins. It's even more freely than my 1st song here. I know the chords and riffs and lyrics, but decide always when playing when to change the riff. So the recording is a way for me to learn to produce one special version and not play it differently each time. You will hear that it is played and sung very freely. So consider it as a song performance for friends, not really a well-structured and finished song. Furthermore, I play nearly everything as slides, so it is harder to play then it sounds. I wanted to play it a bit faster, but it was not possible, this is the fastest drum accompaniment my amplifier has, it doesn't go any faster. One the other hand, for some parts of the lyrics it would be really difficult to sing it any faster.
Since someone asked for the lyrics of my last song I provide it here:
Guitar Heros
Guitar heroes of the past, may be gone, their music will last.
Chuck Berry, Jimi Hendrix gave us all the great licks
Angus Young, so alive, plays day and night
Eternal guitar riffs sound so loud
Make Berry’s Rock’n’Roll proud

Guitar heroes of the past, may be gone, their music will last.
Eddie van Halen’s fire hand, Tony Iommi’s powerful band
And not forget all the women of Rock:
Lita Ford’s solos wild and bold
Joan Jett’s chords breaking the mold
From their style I find my own
Like from seeds they have sown
With their songs I find my way
Getting better every day
Discovering riffs old and new
Offers a lesson for me and you
For me and you, for me and you

Guitar Heros

The song is about joining your first band at fifty and thinking maybe you should have done this earlier. Photo was taken at our first recording session, in the loft!

Days Of Silence

Lyrics :
"The moon sucks up the moistness vibrating in the evening and covers itself with a delicate bloom.
The blue ploughshare of the crescent opened a furrow of lust;
The stars dance horny and milky; Shepherds' flutes try out a chord.
Everything flows and is lost drop by drop...Breathe ! The moon is tainted and my mind is incandescent !
Our Centaur, irritated by the vampire's flight, rears in the pride of escaping the night. 
I come to you with the red moon of April, with the warm summer storms, elusive and mysterious, triumphant and humble. 
And you beg for your servitude and the ethereal caress of my voice. And you praise my mineral beauty, as my feet splash in the fountain of your desire.
In the light of the candles, you inhale the fragrance of my obsessions.
Like a Byzantine idol, I strut on the tower, stiff and sparkling with ivory and gold, and dance to the musical ecstasy of our rhythmically beating hearts. Your desire caparisoned with pride cracks under the lascivious cadence of my venerated feet.
Dew, intrinsic ecstasy, O beautiful evanescent wave, I resolve like a discobolus around the persistence of time.
Like a horse annoyed by a buzzing bee, you vibrate and shake, and imprint your rhythm on my hips. You would like my apex, desire my lagoon. You leave my reef for my confluence.
Desire my desires, enjoy your confusion. Your pleasure ties you to the altar, helpless and craving. And you discover that you’re the sacrifice. 
And we sanctify our intimacy in the chemistry of our moans, in the harmony of our scents, in the immemorial language of our bodies. "

Obsessions #1 - Rainy Jazz

A song about holding on to not moving on
Some moving pictures (and words) here - https://youtu.be/yqiJaQpJBsM 

Lyrics Part 1
Don’t go holding on to all of your failure
Not if you wanna reach for success
And don’t bite down on regret too soon
Because you might never get to forget
All the times when we were flailing 
And the lives when we were flawed
And all the chances that we gave up so willingly
Just so we could run away from those doors

Meanwhile losers keep on losing their time 
Yet still always they’ll find it to waste
Stuck holding onto that hopeless hope
Just to give themselves a kick in the face
So for the times when we were flailing 
And the lives when we were flawed
To all the chances that we gave up so willingly
Just so we could run away from those doors
Back then
We never thought about before
Wishing we could swap for before

We ran to choices that we chose to choose from
In indecision we were always so sure
But you can’t keep on fighting circles
Cos nobody wins a victimless war

We know we gotta make ourselves our own saviours
And go find new ways to believe
Yeah let’s stand up to always being stood up
By all of life’s cruel fate histories 
So bye to times when we were flailing
Au revoir to lives when we were floored
Ciao to Chances that we gave up so willingly
Just so we could run away from those doors
We ran to
Choices that we chose to choose from
In indecision we were always so sure
But you can’t keep on fighting circles
Cos nobody wins a victimless war
The answers not to go on just live out our lives
We must forgive not forget about before
Let’s step up to the plate and feed on love
Not gonna let us die on this floor
Cos if we don’t make love our law
We’ll never learn not to fall
We’re gonna die on this floor
Yeah if we don’t make love our law
We’ll never learn not to crawl
We’re gonna die on this floor
We’re gonna die on this floor
We’re gonna die on this floor
Gonna die on this floor
We’re gonna die on
We’re gonna die on
Gonna die on
Not gonna die on

Lyrics Part 2
Let love be our law
Let love be our law 
We’ll never forget before
But we must let love be our law
From empty ashes we burn
All life’s lessons we learned
We’ll never heal that hole
Always part of our soul
Let love be our law (never forget) 
Let love be our law
Let love be our law (never forget)
Let love be our law

I enjoyed a lot to collaborate with Synline https://soundcloud.com/synline ( Composition and Sampling collage) and mozawa_* https://soundcloud.com/user-174681242 (Beat) on this one. 
A great honor and pleasure for me to write and sing along.


Bodies Swaying

Smooth,
Into the groove…

Step by step
That is a romance
Meet me on that spot tonight
Tune by tune
That is a romance
Hoof by hoof
That is the moon dance

Sometimes it’s one ahead and then three to back
Then swinging round and returning on another track

And ancient lanters wander across the sky again
Singing old songs in a language we’ll never understand
And they go…

Meet me under the moon tonight  
Let us dance into the morning light
I promise I will not step on your toes
Just swaying bodies in the silver light

Smooth, 
Waving in the silver groove

Sometimes it’s one ahead and then three to back
Then swinging round and returning on another track
Into the distance and then out of mind
Then slinging round and appearing on the other side

While our bodies swaying to the music
And they go…

Meet me under the moon tonight  
Let us dance into the morning light
Oh, bodies swaying to the music
Our bodies swaying to the music

Towards The Invisible

Music : Janne Hennie & PJ Project
Vocals & lyrics : Janne Hennie

Its a world full of copies and machines
It is hard to know what is true and what is real..
We look the same, in what we say and what we do
I sometimes have to stop and ask: Is that you?

Are you real?
Is that you I'm talking to?
Is that your voice i hear?
Are you real, is that you?
Can I trust you?
Are you telling me the truth?
I don't want anything else
Only the real you..

Did you speak in your own words
Or did machines do it for you?
Did you sing with your own voice?
Can you tell the truth?
Let me hear the sound of your heartbeat
Let me touch your skin
Show me you're real
The one i can feel..

Are you real?
Is that you I'm talking to?
Is that your voice hear?
Are you real, is that you?
Can I trust you?
Are you telling me the truth?
I don't want anything else
Only the real you...

Let me hear the sound of your heartbeat
Let me touch your skin
show me you're real
The one i can feel....

Are You Real W/ Janne Hennie

IN MEMORY 

Blessed be Thou for all the joy
My soul has felt to-day!
O let its memory stay with me
And never pass away!


I was alone, for those I loved
Were far away from me;
The sun shone on the withered grass,
The wind blew fresh and free.


Was it the smile of early spring
That made my bosom glow?
'Twas sweet, but neither sun nor wind
Could raise my spirit so.


Was it some feeling of delight,
All vague and undefined?
No, 'twas a rapture deep and strong,
Expanding in my mind!


Was it a sanguine view of life
And all its transient bliss—
A hope of bright prosperity?
O no, it was not this!

Alien, Un Gout Étrange Venu D'ailleurs By Zitou Itou & Cecilia Speciale

Cast of characters:
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ—piano, synth, lead vocals, lyrics, seed idea 
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–electric and acoustic guitar, slide guitar intro 
mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – backing vocals, organ, vst sax, mix, and production
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – four-string fretless bass
Composition--The Eclectic Collective

  This song began as an idea JJ came up with during one of his Saturday night creative sessions, fleshed out on the piano, drums, and bass. I was first on this by coming up with a new bass line to go with it, but Ken was also an integral part of that process, as always, too, adding his perfectly suited drums to it. Once we had the rhythm section down, Stephen added his electric guitar, which adds a great howling at the moon esthetic to it, and his acoustic guitar as a foundational element. He also added the cool slide guitar you hear in the intro. 
  At this point, JJ decided it needed some vocals, too. So, he wrote up some lyrics and sang them, giving his typically light, gentle voice some rough swagger. Mark then came along and added the rich backing vocals you hear in there. He also added the sax solo and the organ, too He also was able to correct some timing issues we were having, by using his able hand in the DAW. Then, of course as every good song needs a good mix, Mark did the honors for us with this one, too.
  This is a true Eclectic Collective song, and we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.   Also, in case you were wondering where Josh and Tez have been, they've both just returned from vacations in North Carolina and Ireland, but are excited to be back making music with the team.
Original lyrics by JJ Terrell:
That fog around the mountain

is getting set to rise

pulling these wheels on down the road lord

is pulling my heart right out


If you really love someone now

wouldn't you want it to be a hundred to none?

instead of traveling around with a scorecard by your side


ooooh oh yeah

gonna set you free


ooooh, oh yeah

gonna leave you be
that fog around the mountain
it's like a dream
my heart, it has soon forgotten
a rolling stone like me

saxophone
looking down that dusty road
sun's beatin' down

pulling these wheels on down the road lord
has got me down
until I see you again. 




That Dusty Road (Eclectic Collective)

Cast of characters: 

Quanah Stewart --vocals, lyrics
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–electric guitar, synths, arrangement, composition, mix, and production 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – four-string fretless bass
 
This song began with Stephen and his friend and bandmate, Quanah Stewart who also sings this version, and who wrote the lyrics. They were in a band together for about 7 years in the early 2000s. When the band broke up, they went many years without playing together. Until, in 2018 Stephen started his TexMex shaman project and this was one of the first songs he wrote.  Quanah had moved to Austin in the meantime but on a visit back to Dallas, Stephen asked him to come over and add the vocal track you hear on the song.  
 
Fast forward to 2024 and Stephen wanted to remix this along with a few other older tunes. He asked his good friends and teammates Ken and me if we'd like to help, and of course, we were super enthusiastic.  This is what Stephen had to say about the finished product. "Their parts blew me away.  Beyond what I expected and it made it a whole new song.  Very grateful to them both for their time and talent." As are Ken and I very grateful to Stephen for sharing his awesome rocker with us.  
  The title comes from trying to think of the stupidest song title Stephen could come up with, on a bet. And it’s close. 
  Of course, Stephen did the honors of mixing and producing it. Ken and Josh had a lot of fun brining this song back to life with him, whose creativity and skill are unparalleled. We all hope you (and Quanah) enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it. 
Original Lyrics by Quanah Stewart:
