This song appears on an album called Synthastic alongside those some other amazing musicians with whom my Swiss friend, the very talented and gracious Karin-Maria Brunner collaborated. It's an album centered around the synthesizer, whatever sounds one can get from it, based on her ideas. I cannot properly express my depth of honor and gratitude to her for including me with musicians I admire, like Frans Beelaard, and for sharing her creative seeds with me. Karin-Maria is a truly exquisite musician, with a very disciplined style and mind for musical precision, as well as beautiful melody. You can find her on here under her name. She actually shared two songs with me for this project, and this is the first of those. I tried to come up with an interesting, modal melody for both, in hopes of impressing her. I hope it has the same effect on you. I also provided the beat and bass line for this song. You can find the entire album on your favorite streaming service. We appreciate your listens!

■概要(Overview)
辛い時期もあるけどなるべく笑顔で乗り切れたらいいな、一歩ずつ
・・・という感じの曲です。
何回スマイルって言ったかわからないけどみんな笑顔になってほしい。
さあ行け！ロボドッグよ！(ガチャ、ガチャ！ワンワン！)

There are going to be tough times, but I hope I can get through it with a smile on my face, one step at a time.
It's a song that feels like...
I don't know how many times I've said "smile", but I want everyone to smile.
Let's go! Robodog! (Gacha, Gacha! Bow Wow!)

■歌詞
涙見せないように　笑う君の事
馬鹿にした口調で　責める人たちもいる

残念だけれど　この世界は
単純じゃないんだ　一問一答じゃないんだ
複雑さに目を背けた人たちは　君を責めるけど

マイペースにやろうよ
やれることを　一つずつ　ホップ・ステップ・ジャンプでさ
僕や周りの事なんて気にしないでいいから

もう一度スマイル　そしてスマイル
少し休んで　またスマイル＆スマイル
いつでも応援しているよ　気楽にやろう
テイク・イット・イージー

誰のせいでもない事　誰かのせいにすること
それで何を生み出せるというの？

残念だけれど　この世界は
理由なんて　意味が無いんだ
誰かが作ったミサイルが
今日も誰かの命を奪う

(Smile again
With a heartfelt smile
Just smile..)

マイペースにやろうよ
やれることを　一つずつ　ホップ・ステップ・ジャンプでさ
これから先何が起こるか分からないんだから　

もう一度スマイル　そしてスマイル
少し休んで　またスマイル＆スマイル
いつでも応援しているよ　
僕もどうなるかわからないけど
何とかなるさ
(If we could hold hands again
Also someday….)

マイペースにやろう
まだまだ先は長いから
笑い方を忘れないようにしよう

もう一度スマイル　僕もスマイル
彼女もスマイル　彼らもスマイル
あの野郎にもスマイル
もう一度手を取り合えたなら・・
またいつか

■Lyrics (Google translation)
You smile, trying not to show your tears
I can hear her voice blaming her in her mocking tone.

Unfortunately, this world
It's not simple, it's not one question and one answer.
Those who turned a blind eye to complexity will blame you.

Let's do it at my own pace
I think all you have to do is hop, step, and jump.
You don't have to worry about me or the people around me.

Smile again and smile again
I want you to take a little break and smile again.
I'll always support you. Take it easy.
Take It Easy

Blaming someone for something that is no one's fault
What can you produce with that?

Unfortunately, this world
Reasons are meaningless
A missile made by someone
I will take someone's life today too.

(Smile again
With a heartfelt smile
Just smile..)

Let's do it at my own pace
I think all you have to do is hop, step, and jump.
We don't know what will happen to us from now on.

Smile again and smile again
Take a break and get your smile back
I'll always support you
I don't know what will happen either
we can work it out
(If we could hold hands again
Also someday….)

Do it at your own pace
There's still a long way to go
Let's not forget how to laugh

Smile again, I smile too
She smiles, they smile too
Smile at that bastard too
If we could hold hands again...
Also someday

VV peace

Started life as an acoustic demo. Last month I pulled it out and built a groove around it…and voila! Light, and slightly tongue-in-cheek, a joyful tune about falling in love on New Year’s Eve. The poppiest thing I’ve posted. Vocals shared by Roger S., Jen D B, and myself.

Anther track inspired by Asimov's "Foundation" series. The Mule (a rather unkind epithet for this enigmatic character) is a mutant (aren't we all?). He's also a clown and a megalomaniac. At his core, however, he's incredibly sad and lonely.
My wah peddle isn't functioning, so I used Native Instruments samples for the guitar licks! 

The illustration is by Alexander Wells - from the now deleted Folio Society edition of the book.

The Union crosses the Rappahannock river and clears Fredericksburg. The Confederates retreat to the surrounding hills behind a 4 foot high stone wall. Union frontal attacks, while valiant, are futile with casualties 2:1 ending in total Union withdrawal. History would later lay blame on the Union high command for the debacle. 
Lyrics - have multiple meanings: Crossing the river, subsequent fears and sorrow, poor Immigrant and runaway slave Negro soldiers compelled by their conscience to fight for a better free world; give their all often dying slowly and painfully while left alone on the battlefield - now the Lyrics:

Rivers of tears
Unending fears Lord
These souls
Longing to be free
Their all
Is all they have to give oh Lord
Their blood
Buying liberty
