Really cool stuff my friend! Lovely voice and vocal performance!

Love the upbeat feel to the song. The little claps in the back really add a lot to the song. Really cool!

Nice vibe to the tune, like a 50's '50s-style chord progression

Has a very nice 60’s classic vibe. Great job on this one!

Taking the risk to repeat myself, I am always amazed about the roots and triggers of inspiration in general and in music for me. Sometimes, it’s obvious, sometimes, it’s a mix of a thousands things. In any case, it’s not always easy to identify, but usually funny to recognize! For this song, here are some hints...

Of course, as you can guess from its name, first is the city of Montreux itself… beautifully nestled between steep Alps hills and peaceful lakeside of Lac Leman: local, exotic, relaxing and creative all together.

Then, still talking about this town, less about its landscape and more about its world famous July's Montreux Jazz Festival, it leads to the second inspiration: Deep Purple' Smoke on the Water. Yes, sure, you know the story. If not, you should!

Also, the style of this track has been greatly shaped upon the influence of fabulous @AcuteInflections: yes, I like that "velvety mix of Erykah Badu & Billie Holiday paired with the cool grooves of her 007 on bass" of those 2 New Yorkers!

And finally, regarding 18:20? I'm sure you will figure it out by yourself...

But, still, the path from the initial idea to the song you can hear now was long. The few basic tones crystallized from a small game I do play to warm up my fingers on the guitar, moving it from warming-guitar-tone-exercise to piano/contrabass based track was pretty fun, but it wasn’t enough. Something was missing and there I got help from Blaž Pavšič, who produced the final version of the track, supplementing it with awesome percussion.

Hope you will find the outcome of this collaboration as nice as I do. You better do, as I can promise it's won’t be the only one ;-)

27th (Drift Phonk Beat)

Alt pop / rock song about flying on a magic carpet.

I was kicking up the sand in a crowded town, I never knew anyone
I took a plane from Iraq and I ended up right here, in I don't know where
A man with no shoes stepped in front of me
He wouldn't let me go
He pulled a rolled-up rug from under his arm
Said it's a gift for you my Western friend

"It's a special kind of rug that'll take you to the sky"

All we need is magic for a magic carpet
We can fly together on our magic carpet
It's a sky-high party flying on a carpet
We just wanna party riding on a carpet

See the carpet float across the desert sand, a hundred people were cheering
Excitement quickly developed to a carnival air, soon everyone was there
I felt a little lonely being here by myself, I couldn't fly this alone
'Sir we wanna fly too, can we climb on with you?"
Yeah yeah yeah we can fly anywhere!

We're getting down on a carpet in the sky 

All we need is magic for a magic carpet
We can fly together on our magic carpet
It's a sky-high party flying on a carpet
We just wanna party riding on a carpet

Fly fly fly it's a magical ride
Fly fly fly with the birds in the sky
Fly fly fly see the stars up high
We wanna fly fly fly fly fly fly high

The warm breeze of the Summer
The bright blue sky
This carpet's got a rhythm
Feel the groove inside
See the people down below watch our magic carpet fly

We're getting down on a carpet in the sky

Riding a magic carpet through the desert sky
What a mystical feeling
I was a stranger on the ground but I've got new friends with me
Just dancing and living our best life
Our western eyes could never see that eastern minds can set you free
This feeling is cleansing my soul
If you feel a little blue this will make you feel cool
Do you wanna fly with the Sultans in the sky?

We're getting down on a carpet in the sky

All we need is magic for a magic carpet
We can fly together on our magic carpet
It's a sky-high party flying on a carpet
We just wanna party riding on a carpet

All we need is magic for a magic carpet
We can fly together on our magic carpet
It's a sky-high party flying on a carpet
We just wanna party riding on a carpet 

Oi! What you kids doing with my flaming rug?

Done With This Fight

My new piece based on a theme that surfaced when I was writting my resigned and dark Intermezzo, which in contrast, turned out to be one of the brighest and joyfull of my creations, very lively and bursting with vitality, almost reminding me of a spring flower that ascended from a damp graveyard.
This piece was probably the one I've written in the shortest amount of time,  majority of it written in a mere several hours.
