Black Friday
BPM: 114

This instrumental is based on the sound of multiple tracks of Strats, synths  and electric bass.
It sounds a lot like a song of the eighties for the keyboards chords and the palm muted guitar parts.
The drums are programmed and they are based on the Downbeat Kit available for AKAI MPC here https://www.mpc-samples.com/product.php/291/the-downbeat-kit/. The drums are based on round robin samples which give to the patterns a natural feel.

The instrumental is available for sale on beatstars.com\gamandello or you can enjoy the full track on:

The track has been recorded, mixed and mastered on AKAI MPC Live and software.

" HEAVY LOVE "studio"

Such Is Life

Well, you say the sky is blue, but what about the rain?
You complain about the heat, what about the hurricane?
You're worried 'bout the future, but what about the past?
You're looking for the answers, but the questions never last.

Spinning round in circles, dodging left and right,
In a game of what-about, we're dancing through the night.

What about, what about, what about this?
Shifting every answer with a clever twist.
What about, what about, what about that?
Dancing round the facts, where's the truth at?

You say you want some justice, but what about their crime?
Demanding all the answers, never got the time.
You're pointing every finger, what about your own?
Lost in all the shadows, the truth has never shone.

Spinning round in circles, dodging left and right,
In a game of what-about, we're dancing through the night.

What about, what about, what about this?
Shifting every answer with a clever twist.
What about, what about, what about that?
Dancing round the facts, where's the truth at?

Oh, it's a tricky little dance, a clever disguise,
When you shift the blame, nobody's surprised.
A funhouse mirror of endless debate,
In the land of what-about, we procrastinate.

What about, what about, what about this?
Never face the point, just twist and twist.
What about, what about, what about that?
Round and round in circles, where's the truth at?

So next time you're tempted to what-about me,
Think twice, look straight, and maybe you'll see.
In the end, the truth is where we start,
No more what-about, just speak from the heart.

What about, what about, what about this?
Shifting every answer with a clever twist.
What about, what about, what about that?
Dancing round the facts, where's the truth at?

What About

I've got seven bottles of water.
Two more to piss in.
I'd like to get things sorted.
But I don't know where to begin.
I'm glad I tore myself apart.
I didn't know which way to start.
What was begun?
I'll know that answer when I'm done.

My brothers are little rich kids.
My sister is the same.
While I'm stealing firelighters.
Living just to clear my name.
I've just one question before we start.
Should I be taking this to heart?
What's mine is mine?
I'll find out somewhere down the line.

My friends are going crazy.
Chase American dreams.
And I would join their party,
But I don't know what that means.
The 'truth' is nonsense, it would seem.
They're living someone else's dream.
Sit worlds apart.
I should have realised from the start.

I'm starting now to see.
(You) Don't create a thing for me.
Seem half destroyed by infamy.
Consider this, my litany.
Sulphides will rot away your heart.
I took a look back to the start.
No chosen one.
Your shadows blocking out my sun.

What's done is done.

Sometimes, I really feel.
Like no one can beat me.
But then I go and lose again,
You know the outcome by the end 
You know it just don't bother me.
I'm used to losing it would seem.
A sacred art.
That I've been learning from the start.

Six, E, Q, U, J, Five, Wow!
It isn't fucking aliens.
Get back down to earth now. 
There is no value to your art.
You should of known this from the start.
You're not divine.
Despite the memories in your mind.

Apeman, spaceman, later than creation.
Homebird, prison, from whence has arisen?
Lord, will you still my beating heart?
I should of known it from the start.
What's done is done.
They never said you were the one.

What's done is done.
What's done is done.

What's Done is Done

Look at you, in the corner feeling blue.
Will the spotlight decay or preserve.
Look at you, in your fancy little shoes.
Can you maintain this speed.
And your nerve?

You want peace?
There are many poles they grease.
Is there light on the top of the world?
Go to war?
You're left wondering what its for.
Oh, its dark when you sink to the earth.

The faintest light.
Reaches from the stars.
Fight or flight.
It's all that you are.

You're so cool.
Always tryna bend the rules.
With your cans in a bag someone left.
Life and soul.
Until one day you are just old.
And it isn't fucking funny anymore. 

You want relief?
You'd be better off asleep.
Is there light on the top of the world?
You want more?
Do you wonder what it's for?
Oh, its dark when you sink to the earth.

the faintest light.
Is 
all you need.
put down the drink.
And go and seek.

Your so meek.
You just turn the other cheek.
Is there light on the top of the world?
The chances missed.
Because you always turn up pissed.
Oh, it's dark when you sink to the earth.

The faintest light.
Reaches from the stars.
Fight or flight.
It's all that you are.

Day 1 (Fear & Hope)

Never Tear Us Apart (live cover)

Dedicated to acoustic alchemy, tonal surrealism, and musical dramaturgy for over two decades, I create compositions where complexity and emotional depth intertwine. My approach is fully experimental, rooted entirely in improvisation yet fitting within predetermined harmonies.

My music is recognised for its expressive guitar playing, intricately woven into a vibrant tapestry of live drums, double bass, keyboards, organ, and harp, all performed on the Seaboard with MPE. In my studio, I bring tracks to life in Logic Pro, carefully engineering each sound to balance sonic clarity with emotional storytelling.

My work stems from the conviction that creative ideas, when thoughtfully cultivated, illuminate paths to truth and deeper understanding of life. My musical explorations reflect both personal discoveries and a collective aspiration toward goodness, spiritual and cultural enrichment of humanity throughout its millennia-long history.

Thank you for listening, for your kind words and constructive criticism. All this gives my creative work fullness of meaning and direction. I welcome collaborative creation, development, and the building of new worlds through music together.
