Name: SMOOTH STAB by The Bird Inside in EVEN NEW WAVE & SLOW HOUSE
Duration: 3 min 47 s
Description: Blinded by passion, you head inevitably, for your last smooth stab.

I like the sense of sincerity and melancholy. Minimal emotive piano (and chime) goodness

I really enjoyed the atmospheric melodies in this piece, it created a captivating ambiance that was truly mesmerizing 🎸😃🎹🎸

This is cool, love how the guitar somehow brings the piano forward...

Melodía intrigante, entre la serenidad y la angustia.

Nice piece. Relaxing, soothing yet mysterious. :)

Beautiful, emotional composition. Congratulations

EVEN NEW WAVE & SLOW HOUSE

Something optimistic to start the new year.  When everything else is gone, hope is the last thing you lose.

New Year, New Hope

A cool little tune called "The Icehouse ".  Escape with me to this little jazz club in Minneapolis.

Step inside the frostbitten echo chamber of Three Photons’ latest release, "The Ice House"—a haunting blend of analog soul and spectral blues. This track doesn’t warm you up—it chills you in the best way.

Lyrics

Verse 1
Stella by Starlight
Escaping the real life
Touched by the stardust
She found her real lust
Won't you come on down?

Refrain
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse
Watching it all go down, at the icehouse

Verse 2
Caught in the spotlight
I'm faking the real life
Touched by the starlight
Escaping the real life

Refrain
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse
Watching it all go down, at the icehouse

Verse 3
Stella by Starlight
Escaping the real life
Won't you come on down?

Refrain
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse
Watching it all go down, at the icehouse
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse

The ancient metropolis of Istanbul probably derives its name from the Greek 'Stin Polis' ('in the city')(according to Sean Lusk's excellent book 'The Second Sight of Zachary Cloudesly)having previously been Constantinople the capital of the Byzantine Empire.
This incredible city spans the continents of Europe and Asia and reflects aspects of both in its culture and people.

Me iluminas, y en tu luz descanso.

Songster version was a little ‘copla’ about not being able to be with, nor without, a loved person.  As usual, I’ve ‘upgraded’ it, process from which you only get the final result, normally. 

But, following lyrics’ contradictions, I not only serve parts with different levels of (dis)order in heavy rock - flamenco sauce, but raw vs very cooked parts as well, starting with the improvised phone recording of the very first idea I had to develop the song, so please excuse my failures and noises.

Letra  /  Translated lyrics:

Te veo venir (No te vuelvas a ir)  /  I know where you're coming from (Don’t you leave again)

Te veo venir,                                                 /  I know where you're coming from,
cuando vienes con esa carita de pena,        /  when you come with that sweet sad face,
te veo venir,                                                  /  I know where you're coming from,
cuando vienes llorando sin que te duela,     /  when you come crying without any pain,

te veo venir (x3)                                            /  I know where you're coming from, (x3)

Te veo venir,                                                 /  I know where you're coming from,
cuando dices que quieres hablar conmigo,  /  when you say that you want to talk to me,
te veo venir,                                                  /  I know where you're coming from,
cuando quieres estar al lado mío,                /  when you want to be by my side,

te veo venir (x3)                                           /  I know where you're coming from, (x3)

Te veo venir,                                                 /  I know where you're coming from,
cuando vienes con esa carita de pilla,          /  when you come with that sweet sly face,
te veo venir,                                                  /  I know where you're coming from,
cuando vienes con esa sonrisa, chiquilla,    /  when you come with that smile, little girl,

te veo venir (x3)                                            /  I know where you're coming from, (x3)
