Au bord de la Méditerranée, les pêcheurs n'ont plus grand chose à pêcher...
On the shores of the Mediterranean, the fishermen have very little left to catch now...

The Nets
Dozing on my chair,
Often without company,
Nothing to do, for here I am
A prisoner of the narrow lanes.
From afar, the sea still looks beautiful,
But the wind, the crossings are gone.
Everything’s shrunk and packed away,
No nets left to cast 

In front of my door,
I am so old,
This cruel port bores me,
Its empty boats too.
I’ve lost my appetite,
I watch the cats go by,
As skinny as I am.

Anchors and nets
For decoration,
Dry, frayed ropes,
The scent of the sea has vanished.
I’ve lost my friends,
I watch the men go by,
As dark as I am.
Dozing on my chair,
Often without company,
Nothing to do, for here I am,
A prisoner of the narrow lanes.
From afar, the sea still looks beautiful,
But the wind, the crossings are gone.
Everything’s shrunk and packed away,
The nets are cast.

'The First Flower' is a musical interpretation of the opening words of Eckhart Tolle's book 'A New Earth'. This in a slightly extended version with a few words form Master Tolle himself :-)

The First Flower (Extended Version)

Keep The Faith

This track is a collaboration with Untitled Maruarder (New Mexico) @untitledmarauder

A 'bump' was a short instrumental hip hop snippet between commercial breaks on 'adult swim', a vintage tv program in the USA. The bumps brought lofi and instrumental hip hop to a broader audience and are nostalgically remembered by fans of the genre.

Untitled Marauder's creative sampling and lofi beats provide the backdrop for an ethereal mix with lead guitar tone and articulation played with wind instruments in mind.

"Harmonic Union" is a journey of connection and power. This track begins with an ethereal choir and deep, resonant bass, creating a profound atmosphere that evolves as saturated guitar harmonics tear through the stillness. As the piece builds, a post-rock riff emerges, driven by a steady, grounding bassline, culminating in a symphonic crescendo where all elements—choir, bass, guitar, and rhythm—unite in harmony. Let the waves of sound guide you to a place of unity and transcendence.

Harmonic Union

Voici une nouvelle reprise d'une chanson que j'adore depuis toujours
Elle provient de l'album "Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe" qui n'avait plus le droit de s'appeler "YES" suite à leur scission mouvementée...
J'ai toujours trouvé qu'elle était un peu trop courte tellement elle était belle et pour le coup je suis juste parti d'une simple suite d'accords que j'ai transposé d'un ton, compte tenu de la voix incroyable de Jon, et je l'ai reprise de mémoire en laissant sortir les notes et l'intensité que j'entendais dans ma tête 

----
Let us be together
Let's pretend that we are free
Let's all be where the angels find us
We all have the key
Shall we seal the truth of life
Shall we light the heavens
We're so good at finding pleasure
As to what we are, and how we fit together

Let us sing the song it is
Let the sound of all belief
Let's all find that space in life
To follow in between
It's something that I feel
To pour upon my soul
Countenance of love
For one n' all
To know there's so many ways
The force of nature prevails
I lay down, I lay down and I pray

Let's get our hearts together
And as before, and like before
We'll do again

To know there's so many ways
The force of nature prevails
I lay down, I lay down and I pray

Let's get our hearts together
As before, and like before
We'll do again
Let's get our hearts together
As before, and like before
We'll do again
Let's get our hearts together
As before, and like before
We'll do again

Do again...

Et si tous ensemble
Nous faisions comme si nous étions libres
Soyons là où les anges nous trouve
Nous avons tous la clé
Allons-nous sceller la vérité de la vie
Allons-nous éclairer les cieux 
Nous sommes si doués pour trouver du plaisir
A ce que nous sommes
Et à la façon dont nous nous intégrons les uns aux autres

Chantons la chanson telle qu'elle est
Laissons le son de toutes les croyances
Trouvons tous cet espace dans la vie
Pour se faufiler
C'est quelque chose que je ressens
Pour déverser sur mon âme
Un visage d'amour
Pour tous et chacun
Pour comprendre qu'il y a tant de façons
Où la force de la nature l'emporte
Je m'allonge, je m'allonge et je prie

Rassemblons nos cœurs
Comme avant, et comme avant
Nous recommencerons

Pour comprendre qu'il y a tant de façons
Où la force de la nature l'emporte
Je m'allonge, je m'allonge et je prie

Rassemblons nos cœurs
Comme avant, et comme avant
Nous recommencerons
Rassemblons nos cœurs
Comme avant, et comme avant
Nous recommencerons
Rassemblons nos cœurs
Comme avant, et comme avant
Nous recommencerons

Nous recommencerons
