Shock the Algorithm

some music I wrote and performed some time ago, around 2001, and some more recent stuff from after 2022.

HOVR & Carlo Bonanza 🌿 ᴡᴅʟɴᴅs. ʟɪᴠᴇ sᴘᴇᴄɪᴀʟ

Das Rezept klingt denkbar einfach wie effizient: Fünf Jahre Wuza, zwei Disco Redheads, eine Bucht. Heraus kam eine Sonntagnachmittagsdisko, die durch nur Wuhu’s und Oh Yeah’s seitens des aufgepeitschten Dancefloors unterbrochen werden konnte. @hovrmusic und @carlobonanza, die Berlin-Jena Connection des guten Geschmacks hat‘s mal wieder gezeigt: Disco und funky House bringt die Leute zusammen. Wer dabei war, wird diesen Tag nicht so schnell vergessen. Und wer nicht dabei war, kann sich hier auf 194 leidenschaftliche Minuten Buchtfeuerwerk freuen. One Love! <3

revisiting an old favourite with new & improved sound quality, mixing and arrangement. This is basically a repeating chorus, which is pretty catchy, but I’d love to eventually compose the rest of this tune, and have it played by jazz musicians with live instruments one day. This is probably still one of my top 3 favourite tracks, but there’s a couple other versions I’ve posted on here - one with a saxophone playing lead melody:

mark music medley (top 10 tidbits -oldies)

As always, we ask the artists three questions to introduce himself. In this case Bene aka @Benoir ;)

1) What is your favorite book to read?

That's not an easy question because I definitely don't read enough. but at the moment I'm reading the book: "Paris - ein Fest fürs Leben" by Ernest Hemingway and I love the way Hemingway calmly talks about his time and describes life as an artist in Paris.

2) If you were a super-hero, what powers would you have?

There are a lot of good answers for the second question. I think speaking for humanity, my superpower would be to end wars and hunger, for me personally the greatest superpower would be to be infinitely free from all constraints and conventions.

3) What's the longest you've gone without sleep (and why)?

the longest i was up was like 40
hours when we organized our own open air and were busy throughout the night. Otherwise, sleep is very important to me and you will rarely find me at extended after-hour sessions

Benoir - Limon

After some Soundcloud trouble we are finally back with a new song.
Enjoy.

Obsessive torment

Had it all, but have let it fall
ruined everything that was my joy
-- i've lost my destiny
dark thoughts that plague my mind
the darkness that conceals my life
-- the pain is consuming me
no more choice, it's all my fault
last thing to do is end my life
--leave those ive loved behind

Give it up, don't look back
says the voice inside your head
take no stance just forget
make it end without regret

lying there bleeding on the floor
last memorys, some final thoughts
blinding light, finally at peace
fucked up again, wide awake

--the blade cuts/the blade cuts/the blade cuts
through the veins

lying there bleeding on the floor
last memorys, some final thoughts
blinding light, finally at peace
fucked up again, wide awake

can't do anything right,
not even capable of controll over my mind
can't do everything right,
not even capable to take my own life

Obsessive Torment

can't do anything right,
not even capable of controll over my mind

want to end this life
so many times ive tried 
lost count of the selfinflicted scars
Hope i wake up dead
delivered of this torment
Set me free, release me from this agony
i am a slave to my own misery

i want to hurt you, like you did me
i deserve you, but you wont fucking see
now i will haunt you in your dreams
I will do it, Slit my wrists!!! you will see!!! 
you will suffer like me!!!

thoughts are like a broken record
think about you every second
I can't bear to deal with your loss
repeating the memorys over and over
Mental overload, does not recover
to much pain from the past
Words locked up remain unspoken
this is my time to be a token
disgusted that we are apart

obsessive torment

Obsessive Torment

one of my favourite tracks from the older batch written around early 2001. Or at least it was a favourite for about 20 years until I started writing new stuff in 2022. The violin solo near the beginning is one of my favourite bits I've recorded, but the middle section could use some work since I don't play guitar - everything on this is played on keyboard. I'd love one day re-do this with better sound quality, or even with real violin and guitar.
 
instruments include drums, bass, piano, electric piano, violin, electric guitar, xylophone, organ (all played on keyboard).

All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve. :)

Multi2dinal

re-uploading an old tune from around 2001, remastered from original tape. This is definitely one of the ones I'd love to hear played on real orchestral instruments.

instruments include violin (bowed & plucked), cello, clarinet, accordion, percussion - all synth sounds.

Aulde Europe

This was one of my earliest compositions - from around 2001 - of what I would consider a 'full' song... i.e. not the usual recording of me noodling on a part to build on later and never finishing. The main chorus & verse theme are pretty straightforward and remind me a little of the 'Winter Games' theme by David Foster. But the bridge section in the middle and especially the arpeggio in the closing section are something quite different... arguably my favourite minute or so of anything I've recorded.

DYSTOPIA (MY DYSTOPIA)

Dystopia!

You try to run, you try to flee,
But the streets are filled with mutant freaks!

Your Mylar suit has sprung a leak,
Now head crabs crawl up your feet!

Dystopia!
My Dystopia! 
My Dystopia! 
My Dystopia! 
Ma-ma-ma my-dystopia!

Everything sucks and it always rains.
Zombies roam the streets, looking for brains!

Giant rats crawl from sewer drains.
Look at them close they have a human face!

Wanted to make a song that has a lot of panning fx to build a unique world. The brass in the track reminds me of walking down Wall Street or something. Check it out and thanks for listening. I appreciate all the support.

This song originally had me talking in different spots and also guitar but I took them out. Let me know if you wanted to hear the original mix.

This is a re-do of an older track from about 25 yrs ago. I originally just wanted to do a straight up remake with better sound quality & instruments, but I quickly had a 'different' idea for it, based on the title. 

THE MOVIE:
The idea is there's a movie director shooting a car chase scene, and the 'actor' playing the villain turns out to be a real villain (a mustache-twirling evil-doer in a dark cloak and wide brimmed hat) who just escaped from jail, and now he's on the run, using this movie scene as his escape cover. Calamity & mayhem ensue across the city, ending in a car crash, but the villain somehow makes his getaway, diabolically laughing at his would be captors (ya, that's me with the diabolical laugh, and all the other voices actually, except the police). But then he wakes up to the sound of his cell door slamming shut, realizing it was all a dream - like a movie in his head. 
Y'know, that old story...   ; )

I’m playing all the music on my keyboard, and all the voices except the police. I've uploaded 3 versions of this song:

1) The full 'movie/car chase' version (including story/concept)
    (this version)

2) the 'drums & sounds effects only' version (no music)
    https://soundcloud.com/user-432503709/cut-2-the-chase-fx-only-version

3) the 'music only' version (no sound effects)
    https://soundcloud.com/user-432503709/cut-2-the-chase-music-only-see-description-for-story

4) the 'original' music only version (recorded around 1999 or 2000)
    (pending)

I thought some folks might find it interesting to see this thing deconstructed and evolving from 1999 original to now. Maybe not, lol.

I strongly recommend listening with headphones to get the full panning effects. The image is a combo of AI generated and cut & paste from my photos. each version is a variation of the same image.

All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve. Like, “hey Mark, your car chase idea really sucks”. 😜

A dark grey cloud, lit by bright lightning
Hailstorm approaches 
Storm drives icy wind into the face
Too late to return

Grab stick and rifle rapidly
Heavy hail hammers down 
And soon spurred to gallop
To reach the wizards ostracized shelter

Lyrics:
Listen from far beyond
listen you crowd of loss
listen you all, a generation of pain 
that felt destruction so close

listen people who wheep
that you are the chosen sheep
a sheep that will live, forever you will
and without any bleed

and the seasons are changing
and the days are passing by, while fighting the good fight
and the time feels like raging, an unstoppable light 
and now i am saying...you can't go wrong! 

I hear some people sing, 
i hear some people scream,
i know we all, being under the sky  
in this place where we breathe and dream

listen around the globe,
embrace what u  really love
with body and soul you have to give in
 and never let it go!
