Composition derivated from a short piano improvisation.

2025.

Midsummer Swing

The inspiration for this new song came after watching a Jeff Daniels interview....

Lyrics:
Well, the sun sets low on a dusty road,
And life feels heavy like a stranger's load.
But if you take a moment, just breathe it in,
You’ll find a touch of light where the shadows begin.

One little hour of hope a day,
Try it if you can, let the worries fade away.
Help someone else, maybe help yourself,
Bring a smile to another face, let love be wealth.

You see the pain in the world, it lingers like a song,
But laughter echoes softly, reminding us to be strong.
Share a story, share a drink, let kindness flow,
We’re all in this together, let the good vibes grow.
   
The stars keep shining above the noisy strife,
We find our peace in the simple joys of life.
So, hold a hand, lift a soul, that’s how we find our way,
In this crazy world, one hour can turn to gray.

So, take that hour, let love be your guide,
With just a little hope, we can turn the tide.
One little hour of hope a day,
We’ll find our way together, come what may.

One Hour of Hope

Wave Song (2025) Remastered

Kacper Big 30 Party! - Jam 1.

Dip your toe into the pool
Sip your drink, cream ice coffee
Look on your face says it all
Cool weather welcome the sun

Get it, ‘cuz I want it
Pay the man behind the counter
Get it, ‘cuz I want it now

While I try to do the dance
Feet beat the floor fast as I can
Look on your face says it all
Better oughta stay in my lane

Get it, ‘cuz I want it
Pay the man behind the counter
Get it, ‘cuz I want it now

Calm, I wade through my thoughts
They drift away

Sit here casual beside the pool
Star filled sky right over the night
Look on your face says it all
Welcome to stay for years to come

Get it, ‘cuz I want it
Pay the man behind the counter
Get it, ‘cuz I want it now

Calm, I wade through my thoughts
They drift away

Look on your face says it all
Welcome to stay for years to come


Wade Through My Thoughts

I don't know, why I am into Hip Hop and EDM lately, but I can not help it. And I have no idea where to publish it, so SC is my place for my out of place tracks. I was very impressed by the power of this woman defending the rights of the Maori-people, so it inspired me to make a track out off her speech at the New Zealand parliament. If you want to know more about the event read this article:

NOT THE ONLY ONE
[Chorus]
I’m glad I’m not the only one
But I’m sad just the same
‘Cuz everybody’s suffering
Looking for someone to blame
I’m glad I’m not the only one
But I’m sad just the same

[Verse 1]
‘Cuz deep down I know, if I’m feelin’ it
You’re feelin’ the walls closing in, too
Oh, and I wonder how you’re dealin’ with it
Discerning the falsities from the true

[Verse 2]
Now, I see your broken face up on my screen
From my living room and my heart hurts
Seems in America there’s little grass that’s green
And I hate to think it’s just deserts

[Chorus]
I’m glad I’m not the only one
But I’m sad just the same
‘Cuz everybody’s suffering
Looking for someone to blame
I’m glad I’m not the only one
But I’m sad just the same

Oooooh-oooooh, Ooooooh-oooooh
Oooooh-oooooh, Ooooooh-oooooh

[Verse 3]
And it’s hard to say which one of ‘em is worst
The puppets or those pulling the strings
All I know is that this country is cursed
For the greed of men and shiny things

[Chorus]
I’m glad I’m not the only one
But I’m sad just the same
‘Cuz everybody’s suffering
Looking for someone to blame
I’m glad I’m not the only one
But I’m sad-sad-sad just the same

Oooooh-oooooh, Oooooh-Ooooooh
Oooooh-oooooh, Oooooh-Ooooooh

[Verse 4]
And when I’m feeling I was born too late
As if those who came before us had it better
If we could travel to an earlier state
We’d find ourselves one bird of a feather

[Chorus]
I’m glad I’m not the only one
But I’m sad just the same
‘Cuz everybody’s suffering
Looking for someone to blame
Oh, I’m glad I’m not the only one
But I’m sad, sad just the same
Just the same…Oh, I’m sad-sad-sad just same

I’m glad I’m not the only one
But I’m sad just the same
‘Cuz everybody is suffering
Tired of playin’ the game..

Ooooooh-ooooooh, Ooooooh-ooooooh
Ooooooh-ooooooh, Ooooooh-ooooooh

NOT THE ONLY ONE

“Taking inspiration from a footnote of an Oliver Sacks book, lyrically this explores the phenomenon of musical hallucinations. As I was piecing the lyrics together I quickly realised that in this “a brain storm” is a metaphor for a misunderstood, long term condition with varying degrees of ever changing intensity; Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome definitely inspired my lyric writing for this song (kindly follow the link to the HEDS society in my bio to learn more. Thank you). Leaning into the nostalgic live basement recording sounds of 1990’s alternative music there is definitely a Wheatus, Green Day, Third Eye Blind sound and it gets a little The Cure in places on this one. I also wanted the scrapbook sounds of “Save Rock and Roll” era Fall Out Boy. 

I revisited this as I wanted to cut a new vocal and when doing so I decided to explore a new mix - see what you think of this new version. Thank you.”

I think I might be losing my mind
It’s definitely broken this time
Anxiety and fatigue, what’s happening to me? 
I’m losing my sleep
Brainstorming hallucination

This is my brainstorm
I’m feeling the downfall 
It’s taking, it wants it all 
(You give me the shakes) 
It pushes, it pulls me 
It knocks me then builds me 
Brainstorm hallucinations
I’m hearing ghosts and not seeing faces 
I’m hearing sounds in mysterious places 
My brainstorm 

I feel it call 
I’m hearing noises and there’s no one there at all
It’s so complicated, so bio-excavated 
Maybe I levitated to hell and back 
Brainstorm hallucination 

This is my brainstorm 
This is my brain
