Piano and percussion,... mostly piano pushes this along a la Elton John ...... violin floats over the top.... enjoying this collaboration from you, Jan.

Love both these musicians, but together? Perfecto!!!

Beautiful performance, pure sounds of emotion

Amazing song, great emotional depth to the violin and piano melody!

The Call Of The Priests

Violin: Rosin Dust (Tatiana Makarova) https://soundcloud.com/rosindust
Piano & Production: Jan Schonander

I wrote and played the piano for this piece a while back, but I always wanted real acoustic violin as accompaniment. More than happy to take the back seat to Tatiana's magnificent violin as she brilliantly takes over. With just a little classical percussion this is now a bonafide classical piece with maybe a little rock production & mastering wrapping it all up.

BECAUSE YOU TAKE YOUR LIFE IN STRIDE

Because you take your life in stride

Because you aren’t afraid to kiss the dirt

Because a mind no other mind should try
to fool has always failed to fool your heart

But most because no best is quite so good 
you don’t conceive a better, 
and because no evil is so worse than 
worst you fall in hate with love

Human one mortally immortal I
can turn immense all time’s because to why

– e.e. cummings

Illegal Money Transaction (The Final Attempt)

I have found another asset from Special Cecilia which I found very inspiring and very beautiful. 
Cecilia´s original can be found here:

I hope you will enjoy our collaborating again!

Below are Cecilia´s Lyrics:
Ici et là de par le monde il semble que l'on soient plusieurs
Appellés à répendre de la lumière, à l'encontre des ténèbres
Chacun à sa manière, chacun de son côté, mais nos destins sont comme liés

Beaucoup d'entre nous ont souffert et ont surmonté leurs peines,
beaucoup connaissent les galères et ont résolu leurs problèmes
beaucoup ont encore dur, mais on garde le coeur pur
les intentions honnêtes

Je suis le capItaine de mon propre navire,
je garde le contrôle, je veux pas qu'il chavire,
tant de monde à explorer, de choses à partager
surfant sur les vagues de la destinée

¿Sabes que quiero?
Quiero que salga sangre de mi cuerpo
Mucha sangre
De color rojo, y rosa
Y de la mezcla de los dos,

Que se vea desde muy lejos
Y mucha gente venga
A ver lo que pasa

Y lo que pasa
Es que me sale sangre
De la nariz y de los dedos
Mucha de los dedos

Y por debajo de la lengua
Y tambien de los pies
Y de las rodillas
Y de las caderas

Y no paro de correr
Y a mi me gusta sentir
como sale tanta sangre por mi cuerpo
Y a mi me gusta sentir
Como sale tanta sangre por mi cuerpo
Y a mi me gusta sentir
Como sale tanta sangre por mi cuerpo

¿Sabes que quiero?
Quiero que salga sangre de mi cuerpo
¿Sabes que quiero?
Quiero que salga sangre de mi cuerpo
¿Sabes que quiero?
Quiero que salga sangre de mi cuerpo
¿Sabes que quiero?
Quiero que salga sangre de mi cuerpo
Y de la mezcla de los dos
Que se vea desde muy lejos
Y mucha gente venga
A ver lo que pasa

Y lo que pasa

Es que me sale sangre
De la nariz y de los dedos
Mucha de los dedos
Y por debajo de la lengua
Y tambien de los pies
Es que me sale sangre
De la nariz y de los dedos
Mucha de los dedos
Y por debajo de la lengua
Y tambien de los pies
Y por debajo de la lengua
Y tambien de los pies

Y lo que pasa

Es que me sale sangre

De la nariz y de los dedos
Mucha de los dedos
Por debajo de la lengua
De los pies y las rodillas
Sale mucha sangre
sale mucha sangre
Sale mucha sangre
sale mucha sangre
Y a mi me gusta sentir
como sale tanta sangre de mi cuerpo

Es infinita, infinita,
Infinita y todo el rato genero mucho mas
Mi sangre es infinita y todo el rato genero mucho mas

Es un espectaculo
Y si fuera un dolor muy leve
Un dolor divino
Un dolor del limbo
No pasa nada
Por que es como un truco de magia
La gente se asusta y se asombra
Pero no pasa nada
No pasa nada
No, No, no pasa nada, hey, hey

Soy infinita, soy infinita,
soy infinita, Soy infinita,
Hey, hey
Soy infinita, soy infinita,
soy infinita, Soy infinita,

It's been a while since eddyoffline and I did a collab.  Mostly because he's always offline.  This one finally came together though.  I have never really played Reggae before and it shows. Thanks to eddy for sending me this track.  He plays an awesome bass in this as well as a solid rhythm guitar to hold things together.

Reggae-ish

Reggae-ish - with eddyoffline

I will pretend to have a soul
On the days that I am wholly hollow
We'll slay everything your afraid of

Rust

shizoku

something tells me won't be walking home today
all the memories keep tellin' you to stay
oh, the little things you thought you knew so well
put you in a spell

tell yourself, just to carry on
help yourself, to a little love
just exhale, feel the music in you heart
tell yourself, it'll be all right
it may take, the needed time
tell yourself and get through the day

when you know that there is nothing you can do
you wait

when it seems that it will never be the same
again

Con Las Mejores Intenciones

Since lately I have not been able to settle into a creative frame of mind,
I felt that in order not to lose what little comprehension I have managed 
achieve in working this music software, I might stay in practice by taking a detour.

From early on in life I have greatly admired the compositions
of Johann Sebastian Bach.

Since I had the scores of his Brandenburg Concertos
[...... The Six Brandenburg Concertos
[...... and the Four Orchestral Suites
[...... in Full Score
[...... Published by Dover, 1976
[...... ISBN 0-486-23376-6
[...... Library of Congress Catalog Number 76-12016

I thought I would try to blend a little Electronix 
along with the Period Instruments to see how that might play out.

Before letting this piece loose on everyone, I had the privilege of being able to receive some much needed criticism on my technique from a wonderful performer and SC supporter:

Mr. Bouzouki: https://soundcloud.com/mrbouzouki

He was able to help demystify the application of side-chaining for me.
On a physical mixing board, I had done a lot of it, though I didn’t know to call it that, 
yet how it was accomplished on the DAW kept eluding me.

The problem that needed addressing was the excessive amount
of REVERB that inevitably accompanies my tracks.
Often the native effects for a selected instrument
had its own effects bus, which I was never able to see (until recently).
So if it didn’t have enough of or the kind of REVERB I was looking for,
I added it in-line, which ended up supplying too much of an overly complicated (and somewhat unmanageable) EFFECT.

Hopefully, I have trimmed enough of it off at this point
that you will be able to hear all of the notes from all of the instruments
without having to imagine that they must be there somewhere in the mix.

One final admission:
The only thing possibly worse than my sense of pitch is my sense of tempo.
I have never been able to sight read music,
so to play a piece, it is always necessary to just memorize it.
Even then, having a metronome means nothing.
So, for all of you that are in a similar situation,
thank heavens for DAW technology.
It has made the joy of music a possibility for the masses
of us who have the tenacity to claim it for a hobby.

Support Structure

Rock, Rock, Rock and no Alternative …
I am playing guitar and bass, I love prog rock, technical death metal and all flavors of hard rock.
I use SoundCloud for collaborations with other Artists, if time allows.
Mix and Mastering was done in the „N.o.b.S. Moonshine Studios“ based in my living room. 
Nearly everything had been recorded during the night, sometimes at daylight on weekends.

Thanks for visiting. This is a retro eclectic music mix with a strong keyboard base.  Looming influences from among others Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Lou Reed & Jon Lord. The songs are mostly about the human condition.

I am always looking for a guitar player that wants to collaborate. Would be fun to find a real drummer also.

A Gat is a cat in Catalan - it all makes sense if you’re me.

To all of you likers and reposters that don't listen - what's the point?
