海と波がテーマのギターインストです🎸

I mixed this right after we played in the studio, but I think my ears were shot. That's why I remixed it. (Sep. 14, JST)

ギターを演奏した直後にミックスしたんですけど、ギターアンプの音圧感に耳が慣れてしまっていたようで、ちょっと変なミックスしてたので、リミックスしました（9月14日）

The time for parting will come for everyone someday. A relative of mine suddenly passed away. They lived far away, but they were such a kind person. I offer this track with both sadness and respect, like offering flowers at a funeral.

They say that life is a test but not everyone’s dealt the same hand
Some are born into privilege, while others struggle through quicksand
We play the cards we’re dealt as we try to find our way,
Doing our best to keep our heads above water as we go about each day.
People born with a silver spoon in their mouths, they’re rich and the die is cast
Other’s get a wooden spoon, which the termites eat, and it’s struggle not to finish last
They say money can’t buy you happiness, but it’s hard to put a smile on your face
When the game is rigged and you can’t even get to first base.
How many billions do you have to accumulate before you’re just running up the score
At what point do you decide that you don’t need anymore
Telling rags-to-riches stories, so the common man believes it’s true,
“Keep those taxes off the billionaires cause someday that might be you.”
 People born with a silver spoon in their mouths, they’re rich and the die is cast
Other’s get a wooden spoon, which the termites eat, and it’s struggle not to finish last
They say money can’t buy you happiness, but it’s hard to put a smile on your face
When the game is rigged and you can’t even get to first base.
 Politicians smiling and acting like they share your blues,
But they’d collapse in a minute trying to walk a mile in your shoes.
Lottery tickets selling hope, though the odds are that you’ll never win
You’ve got a better chance of being struck by lightning than ever cashing in.
You’ll be paying off those loans for the rest of your life from that useless college degree
As the corporations implement AI trying their best to replace you and me
 The universe is billions of years old; we come and go in a flash.
We spend our short lives obsessing over cash.
 People born with a silver spoon in their mouths, they’re rich and the die is cast
Other’s get a wooden spoon, which the termites eat, and it’s struggle not to finish last
They say money can’t buy you happiness, but it’s hard to put a smile on your face
When the game is rigged and you can’t even get to first base.

Life Is a Test

Пробовал сделать этот трек так, чтобы было похоже на катание на колесе обозрения: размеренный монотонный ритм, мелодия постепенно забирается выше и выше, и не менее постепенно опускается вниз, туда, откуда все начиналось 🎡 // I tried to make this track so that it would be like riding a Ferris wheel: a measured monotonous rhythm, the melody gradually climbs higher and higher, and no less gradually descends back to where the movement began 🎡

Помимо прочего, это заключительный трек с моего EP // Besides, this is the final track from my EP

The Earth Love

A matter of time

Hello…. So who is Darwin the cat… really? I suppose just an old recluse like me. An older cat who I was tasked with cat-sitting this summer. Initially, I never saw him. Ha. Then one day, he appeared out of nowhere and we became best buds. He became talkative and encouraged me to ask him about life. I would ask him something and he would tell me all about it. So of course here’s a song about our shenanigans. A simple song. Ukulele, vox, and some finger-tapping keyboard percussion. In other news, tiny chickadees have been following me around the yard when I water, and a new generation of rabbits hang out near the small patches of red clover I planted around the yard... They stretch out and relax in the shade during the day. I laugh at them. The raccoon(s) come through late at night, and sometimes I hear them scream, which does sound weirdly unnerving. A hawk is in and about hunting the yard for small birds and whatnot. The birds in the yard, head into the spruce tree branches where the hawk cannot go. I built a small branch wall around the fire ant mound back by the compost pile, as someone keeps digging into it, maybe the coons or possibly flickers trying to get at the larvae. Now the mound is really built up as the ant colony has worked feverishly to rebuild it. That particular ant colony has been here for decades. Plenty of apples and wild plums now, so I have to be alert when going outside late at night, as maybe the bear will return in the midst of hyperphagia, to gorge on the apples. There were some deer here briefly as well. I have begun autumn chores in preparation for the long winter here and have taken to eating apples and plums from the trees, as I take a break from my chores. I could be a bear… hahahahaha. And of course, I’m getting old(er), more forgetful, and wondering what the future holds in store. Hope you’re all well. Thanks for dropping by, Mark 

Darwin And The Evolution Of Catharsis

As  long as I can remember I have always listened to music to dream.
I play music to treat my neurose! !!! 😉 
I find the different sources of inspiration in my daily life...

Music is also an excellent way to escape inexpensively! 😊
I've been using synthesizers, sequencers,  drum machines samplers and many other computers since the 80s 
All traks are made now with FL,  Ableton Live and Studio One. I play music on a computer for my pleasure. 
I am retired . I no longer have any professional activity and I play music just for fun.
My musical influences range from classic rock music to jazz and electronic music.
You can leave me comments if you like the music it is always pleasant to read nice comments    😎
