appreciate the sentiment, nicely presented...enjoyed this tune

Hi Bob and Joliz, it’s a very lovely song! The lyrics are great (of course), both vocals strengthen each other very well. And all wrapped in a beautiful melody ❤️

Enjoyed this one.  Cool song. Well written, arranged and produced.

great melody and lyrics. fun to reflect back on the past and remember all the songs that were/are part of you...

I’ve got some Dylan
Some Velvet Underground
“Chelsea Girls”
On this mixtape I found
Ribbon on a reel 
My life in sound
Yeah ribbon on a reel
My life in sound

I’ve got some Bowie
From the old “Low” days
The thin white lines
And the foggy haze
The songs get played
Then fade away
Yeah the songs get played
Then fade away

I’ve got some Patti
Singing “Dream Of Life”
She’s howling out dreams
Into the deep dark night
It feels so alive
So it’s alright
Yeah it feels so alive
So it’s alright

I’ve got some Leonard
On this old Walk Man
He comes up after Joni
“So Long Marianne”
Such a heartbreak
Guess he wasn’t her man
Yeah such a heartbreak
Guess he wasn’t her man

Cause that’s my life 
This mixtape I found
Yeah that’s my life 
My replay life in sound
Cause that’s my life 
This mixtape I found
Yeah that’s my life 
My replay life in sound

MIXTAPE (with Joliz)

One More chance
They say an old dog
Can’t learn new tricks
Some things are broken
Just can’t be fixed
Come on, honey
That’s not your style

Give me one more chance
To make you smile
Give me one more chance
To make it right
Don’t give up on us
At least without a fight
I know this love of ours
Still can be repaired
Please don’t throw away
All the good times that we’ve shared

They say a leopard
Can’t change his spots
But on that subject
I’ve got some thoughts
My true colours
Are yet to be revealed
That broken heart of yours
I believe it can be healed

Give me one more chance
To make it right
Don’t give up on us
At least without a fight
I know this love of ours
Still can be repaired
Please don’t throw away
All the good times that we’ve shared
Guitar Solo 8 bars

Give me one more chance
To make it right
Don’t give up on us
At least without a fight
I know this love of ours
Still can be repaired
Please don’t throw away
All the good times that we’ve shared

"Planet Sounds of May" (2019).

This song was written while watching a video that Joliz shot from inside a car going through a car wash. There was just something very inspiring and contemplative about this 2 minute trip.

Video included here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqi_xf16f0M]Video

I rolled into a car wash
In a flood of soap and rain
A self-contained storm
Where the outcome is the same

Steam on the windshield
A ghost in the glass
Held an unlit cigarette
Saw the present and the past

The radio was static
Some broken English song
The DJ said “this is Berlin” 
But I knew he got it wrong

You left me in Kreuzberg
With your paintings and your gin
You said “love's a revolution”
But you never let me in

I stayed too long at Kottbusser Tor
Thinking you'd come down
In your fashion army coat
Like a queen without a crown

Neon bleeds on cobblestones
Your name in every drip
I saw your shadow on a bar stool
And a guy with a crooked lip

Now the soap’s all in the gutters
And the world comes back in grey
This city’s got a talent
For fading things away

The glass is clean on this old wreck
It’s time to retreat
And somewhere past the Fernsehturm  
The silence fills your seat

Hi Everyone!
I invite each of you to listen to an alternative version of my piece called „Surf Dance” that I wrote two years ago. This song was also recorded with The Eclectic Collective as our first song together and released in July 2023. Yes, time passes quickly... 
Please check out the original version of „Surf Dance” with the Eclectic Collective 😎

Surf Dance >25

- Fate's Shadow -
Ashes on the Wind - Chapter 1

A dramatic piano and cello composition that marks the beginning of a doomed journey.

He walks toward certain doom. With nothing left but the weight of memory and resignation, he follows the path of despair. The battle is already lost, yet he marches—not for victory, but for honor. For remembrance. For the fallen.
Hope has long since faded, but resolve burns quietly on. Let the cello weep and the piano echo the footsteps of the forsaken.
This is where fate is met—and remembered.

Ashes on the Wind

Ashes on the Wind - Fate's Shadow

Lyrics

Hey Scratch,
it's my serve ..
Good luck returning this Agassi curve
Channel that inner Sabatini
These musical rallies making me truly free

Forehand to backhand
The net sees you in
Here comes the spin
I'm lobbing you man
Long, Out... Ah TBD
We must scratch more song
Umpirical free
An ace
There's the power of beast practice flower
You just saw my Sampras
Monumental hour

Trem lines through core
This court sees notes played
We're all found as winners serving pure ace

We're aiming for lines
Lines we find
Perfection in musical accuracy timed
Imagery painted
Steffi Graf like good measure
Treasure from feathered true inner peace pleasure

Just like Martina paved true way
Way for the fearless to enjoy their natural day
Day to Day the way they are
Seen on a screen
New homo sapien bar

Scratch, it's your serve
Show me that curve
Varied direction
Be seeding new nerve
Pathways of neurons
New type of ace
Let's enjoy life for a universal pace


We showing that grace
Let's show that grace
Show that grace
Thank you man
Mr and Mrs Sheridan

(Mary and John Sheridan were my next door neighbours when I was younger. We got to use their tennis courts and they have a beautiful family. Mary and John have passed on now, RIP both of you...  but I wanted to appreciate them as I learned to love tennis on their courts and felt reconnected with them making it. Sorry for losing your tennis balls all the time 😆)

Update: Bass added and 2 x Electric Guitar (One lead focused the other rhythm mostly - Twang setting on my Line 6 amp for both runs - no DAW modelling this time) also added keys - piano one run and airy strings one run... both played on a keyboard

Tempo 142 BPM (borrowed from BBC Wimbledon theme song)
Very nicely... I stopped the piece / acoustic guitar which started it at 142 bars... I didn't mean that but I will definitely hold it now as the songs duration aswell... The universe delivered that one. 2 x Acoustic rhythm runs / Drums and Two vocal lead lines so far...

Notes
Let's keep the empowering yourself by a sports person's mindset even if your not playing sport... (to save you listening to me in the poem track... I empower myself by recognising that I am my version of Fernando Alonso at what I do - Music and poems so....)... I just got pole position with the song like I knew I would because qualifying when you're making song is having no doubt whatsoever that your result will be what you want to get out of it. This is vital. We can only make music from a position of calm confidence so using a placebo like tool like I do works really nicely for me...

The only difference in seeing yourself as a 'star' you may respect... There's no competition... But the same mindset can and in my opinion should apply... All incredible sports people visualise what they will do and that prepares their mind to be laser focused on doing it in the moment when it arrives... They have a reference in their mind and the skill along with that imagined reference allows them to execute it more effortlessly and adapt to something they may not have foreseen... They call their own shot in their head and then make it most of the time... Call your shot and you wipe out the doubt because your always happy with your result then before you've made it... If you end up with a pile of shite! Well even the best lose sometimes... Look at Zidane in the World Cup final... He's still one of the greatest footballers of all time... Maybe Materazzi's questionable mindset was too strong for him that day... But we don't need to worry about that crap... We have no one to beat but ourselves... Zidane licked his wounds stopped playing football straight away and is now one of the best managers in the world continuing to build his incredible legacy with the help of an amazing daily mindset of a winner... Winning in the music business (ethically) the way society is.. Extremely difficult... Bring it on!🔆

Aphids

Bruce Klepper's beautiful piece "Chiaroscur" inspired me a few ideas about art that I wrote in French. I sang them over Bruce's instrumental, improvising some melodies and vocal harmonies, and here is the result. 

*** L'ART POUR L'ART ***

L'art pour l'art, ou l'art pour l'argent?
Car il faut bien vivre, il faut bien survivre.
C'est bien évident...
Parfois c'est bien clair.
Parfois ça dépend…
Pour atteindre les rêves il faut rester sur sa faim,
et jeuner souvent, et prier longtemps.  
On prie quand on cherche la réponse dans l'âme,
la beauté dans le geste, le génie dans le vent.
L'obsession qui nous prend de puiser le néant,
de parfaire une esquisse, de créer tâtonnant,
c'est ça l'art pour l'art
qui coule dans le sang.

L' Art Pour L' Art (based on Bruce Klepper Chiaroscur instrumental)

Feels good to upload another song! I recently moved into an old house, close to a river, it has character, I love it cause I put my old baldwin on it's original wood floors it has in the living room, love the acoustics especially with higher ceilings, I'm so thankful:) A new beginning. 

I recorded this live take late last night, close to 2am, got it my first full take, which is always nice!
I wrote this song back in 2021. An experience definitely inspired this song. Things can sure feel like heaven for awhile, then there's that tough surprise, after giving and sacrificing so much. I hope you enjoy this song, thanks so much for listening!:) 

Driving With The Moon

You couldn't sleep
I'm driving with the moon to see you 
Up your driveway
My headlights are turned off they can't see
Park along the backside through the gate cross the deck like before
Thunderstorms inside of me every time you crack open the door
And there you are
My lucky eyes

And all is better now 
You opened my heart
Somehow somehow
All is better now 
You opened my heart
Somehow somehow

Right before the dawn
I don't wanna leave but I know I have to
One more hand squeeze I finally gotta let go it hurts me
Looking back at you again that beautiful silhouette oh I adore
Driving home the world is gone one track mind there's nothing I want more
And there you are
Perfect daydream

And all is better now 
You opened my heart 
Somehow somehow 
All is better now 
You opened my heart 
Somehow somehow

Instrumental 

And I am ready now
You closed up your heart
Somehow somehow
Oh God, save me now
