Album Summer Of The Seasonal Optimist 2024 
...with a little help from my friends...

Summer Of The Seasonal Optimist

Around noon today (2024, July 21), I asked joerxx (https://soundcloud.com/joerxworx ; please take a tour on his page) if he would like to play saxophone on the basis of an old song of mine that I was rearranging  without particular satisfaction. He agreed, and in a few hours he and his sax did a great job. 
Now the song too is also finally updated:  https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/vorrei-che-tu-venissi-da-me-in-una-sera-dinverno
Thank you Jörg, it was a great Sunday!

I would like you to come to me on a winter evening (instrumental)

Cruisin

Firstly I would like to say, all those suffering with Psoriatic arthritis .. I TOTALLY GET IT !!!!  I had my first flare up a few months back and it stopped me dead in my tracks !!!! . I could'nt open a tin of beans never mind play anything. Luckily I got my shot (which made me feel like I was 20 again) which lasted long enough for the medication to kick in and now things seem to have calmed down a great deal. fingers crossed !!!
I started tracking this one about 4 months ago but never got it finished. FINALLY its finished I hope you all enjoy it. Just somthing easy going to get started again.

Once again thank you to all for all your great support.

Bill and I invite you to listen to the final result of our collaboration which lasted a week and was a great pleasure for both of us! 😎😊
Bill as a very creative musician and competent producer added his magical synth sounds to my guitar part and bass line! He then took care of the production and mixing of the song. He did the time-consuming work to achieve this unique and interesting sound of the song. That's how this song came to be - once again, we crossed the Atlantic distance. 🌞
This is our third song together after "Good Days" and "Clouds" with Nathaniel Ehrnman. In the former Bill was the producer, in the latter he was the producer and musician. Enjoy listening to it !!! 😎🎸

I dedicate this song to my wife, Monika ! 🍀

A little good mood song. The music is again almost unplugged. Acoustic guitar, tongue drum, djembé, tambourine, shaker, triangle, clapping hands. Only bass & drums are plugged in.

Hey my friends! 
I invite each of you to listen to my story about a sleeping giant who wakes up after a long sleep. Or is it simply a sleeping city that begins another day… 
I hope you enjoy listening to this piece! 🌔

The Giant's Awakening

Jam -  I Like You (Fil Bo Riva)

Hello, Everyone! Do you like surf rock? Do you like the soundtrack from „Pulp Fiction” and „Kill Bill”? I try to combine surf rock with other styles of music: with indie, psychedelic, space rock, ambient, folk, etc. 🍀 
All pieces on my profile were written by me (unless otherwise noted in the description) 
I hope you will like the vibe 😎🎸

I co-found a duo with my friend from Sweden, Håkan (WELL ) on synthesisers. We have recorded several tracks together, which you can easily find on my profile and on WELL's profile. My friend and I are trying to combine ambient music or space rock with a surf guitar sound in our project. Our collaboration continues 😎 

I am also a member of the project FIFTY ON EARTH together with my friend from Poland, Marcin Jakubowski. You can listen to our tracks  „On the open road to north”,  „Drifting Away” and „Space Crash” on SoundCloud 😎

Notable are my collaborative recordings with a group of wonderful musicians from the USA and from the UK who perform under the banner of The Eclectic Collective. We were able to join forces on seven tracks (compositions of my own making): Surf Dance/ A Time Race/ The One/ See You Soon (in a better world)/ Tell Me The Truth/ Sweet Rainy Day/ Flow Of Life  😎 This music goes beyond classic surf rock and into psychedelic territory with the help of incredibly talented and creative musicians such as Josh Clary (bass), Ken Karasek (drums), J.J. Terrell (keyboards), Tez (guitar) and Stephen (guitar and sitar) 🌞

A separate project is the track "Ghost Train" which was recorded in a quartet, together with Håkan, Josh and Tez. It's psychedelic ambient based on a trance beat, synths, bass and guitars!🌔

Another notable one is the project with my friend from Kansas City - Nathaniel Ehrnman. Together we created a quiet track called "Good Days”. Nathaniel added his guitar parts (slide and baritone) and harmonica to my track. His unique playing style gave the song a folk character 🍀 
In the next track called 'Clouds', our friend Bill Brooks (Remnant60), the producer of these two tracks - joined our duo on synthesizers. This combination of different musical styles gave an interesting final result, so I invite you to listen to these songs! 🌞
A short time later, another project followed: "Between Us”. Bill Brooks added his synthesizers to my guitar part and also took care of the production of this song! This is how the combination of surf music with electronica and shoegaze sound came about. 🌔
Our next collaborative piece between Bill Brooks and myself is titled: „Things Change”. Bill added his synths and bass to my guitar track and also took care of the production and mixing. The end result is available on our profiles! 😎 
Our latest track so far is “Surf Odyssey 2025” where Bill added his synths, second guitar and “ocean sounds”, and handled the mixing and production! 🏄🏼‍♂️

Enjoy the vintage sound of Fender Jaguar and surf music in the new version 😎🎸

MANY THANKS for listening, commenting, reposting and support 😊
