Really gorgeous music and performance! Great collaboration.

I really like this collaboration.  Very nice work from you and Tatiana.   (I am sorry I'm late to the party!)

A real pleasure collaborating with Rosin Dust. To hear more of her violin go to: https://soundcloud.com/rosindust
Was just having some piano fun when Tatiana agreed to collaborate with her violin.

Some background to what I was thinking when writing this music:

There’s a book by Jared Diamond (Pulitzer prize winning author of “Guns, Germs & Steel”) called “Collapse” which attempts to analyze why civilizations fail. Some chapters talk about Montana, Viking settlements, the rise and fall of African empires and much more. A common theme is that the zenith is reached right before the collapse, frequently caused by the depletion of a natural resource needed to culturally or physically sustain society. He tries to paper over a fundamentally pessimistic outlook towards the end with talk about the promise of his daughter, but it certainly made me think.

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

Sometimes you go to a dark place.

WRETCHED BEGGAR

Ooooo….
Ooooo….

I don’t want you
I don’t need you
Why don’t you 
Why won’t you
Why can’t you
Get out of my way 
It’s my way

All you do
When I’m in your arms
All you do 
To twist and turn me
All you do
To look the other way
Alll you do
To ignore me

I should leave you
I can’t bear you
Why don’t I
Why won’t I
Why can’t I
Get out of my way 
Gotta be one day

A little devil in my mind
Poking me with his red hot trident
White smile on his face
I feed him 
I feed him
That fat little bastard
I’m gonna get the wretched beggar

All I do
To forget myself
All I do
To erase myself
Never do
Anything I used to
Never do
Anything I want to

Better for you
Better for me
I think we
I believe we
I hope we
Get out of my way 
Never better than today

Wretched Beggar

Layers of percussion and hiphop beats form the backbone of this emotive track. Huge dark ambient synths weave in and out, like rhythmic breathing. Abstract vocal samples echo behind a wall of droning bass. 
Drawn from the emotion behind the realisation that we often want what we cannot have.

Paradox Of Desire

B-Balloon Party

This is a follow-up posting of a wonderful collaboration Dan-T had invited Debra and I to contribute to.  Dan had posted it well over a year ago as a backing track to a dramatic French Fantasy production.  With his kind permission after the delay of a year, I wanted to post this as a celebration of a different kind of drama--life awakening from a long winter sleep. Dan's synths are sweeping and epic, Debbie's playing is measured and elegant like the words in a fine poem.  The Requinto guitar has a sweet voice sounding a bit like a Celtic harp to round out the production.  Hear more of Dan's French Fantasy (French Fantastic:) @dan-t-3, and Debbie's superb and poetic playing @debra_buesking.

A bit low-key. Yet there might be something in it for you...

This is really a creation of Tez, who put it together from a mix of JJ's and my parts on the high end. He was kind enough to share it with JJ and me, and have us be a part of this psychedelic whirlwind. Tez gave JJ and me a bass line attached to a house beat. We both came up with parts that were wildly different than what you hear. But that's just one example of Tez's magic. He can bend sounds and parts to his will and create something totally different from the original, new and exciting. We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Replicant Boogie (The Eclectic Collective)

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?
