cool. guys  how.  are. you doing ? Ian  and Robert music  is progress nice. one

Absolute progress. Great flow and really good background. Nice work men.

So many nights before 
Face down on a floor
Wondering where I am 
Wondering who I am
I’ll never reach that place 
You’ll never see that face
Again

Have I tried to hide 
Who I am inside
So no one will know 
To protect my soul
From people I won’t see 
And who I’ll never be
Again

What I was before 
And have come to abhor
Someone whom pretends 
As a means to an end
I don’t think I can  
Ever be that man
Once more

There in my own way 
Obstacles I’ve laid
I must break apart 
That is how I’ll start
Keeping myself from 
What I had become
Once more


If we are to last 
We must escape our past
To weather the storm 
Then we can transform
Eons have been spent 
Learning what we’re meant
To do

Let’s not waste our time 
Maybe then we’ll climb
To the next plateau 
Then we  all can go
Reach a higher plain 
Doing what we feign 
To do

Never Seen That Face

This track marks the turning point of the Pandemic Suite:
After the melancholy of the preceding sections, mourning the loss, weakness, the loneliness, after sinking into retreat and memory, comes now the rebound.
Out of nothingness, out of the darkness, the sunrise begins to shimmer— a symbol of new beginnings and awakening trust. 
This composition grows from the depths of the doublebasses, it lets chords rise, blossoming into a radiant orchestral sound that reveals beauty before the eyes and stirs hope for what lies ahead.

Pandemic Suite – 22. Let the Sun Rise

New song written and performed by David Cooper.

Lyrics:

She was my love
But I let her down
I couldn’t be around
I was never there.

Most of the time
I was off running wild
Going out of my mind
And I didn’t care

Chorus

I’m no good for you 
I’m not what you need
I’m too wrapped up in myself
Drowning in my own greed

I can see her now
Just sitting there
But I didn’t care
About the tears in her eyes

Now my head’s in my hands
Oh I feel ashamed
Got myself to blame
It was down to me

Chorus x 2

"Cosmonauts Turned Gods" (2022).

New song written by David Cooper and Glen Granthem.

Lyrics - David Cooper

I heard a story many years ago
About a man who didn’t know
What his life was all about
So he just ran around and around

Chorus

Time stood still - He’ll keep on searching
Far and wide - He’ll keep on searching
Up and down - He’ll keep on searching
Round and round - He’ll keep on searching now

Kept on going through the night
Ran across the whole wide world
Didn’t keep his head on straight
Should have listened to what he was told

Chorus

Solo

Chorus

Then one day he realised
What’s been missing all of his life?
Now he listens to what people say
And now he’s found a brand new way

He’s stopped searching - Repeat

Searching (Cooper/Granthem Collaboration)

What Progress We Make

Distance To Horizon

“Bach, Satie, Moog”
This piece is constructed from four-bar, and occasionally eight-bar, phrases recorded almost entirely in one-take improvisation, then combined into blocks.

The title itself was simply taken from words that happened to appear on the spines of books on my shelf. But since that would sound a bit dull, let me add some explanation.
	1.	Bach
In today’s textbooks on Western classical music, “the great Bach” always appears. Through The Well-Tempered Clavier, he demonstrated the possibility of composing in all keys and made a major contribution to the organization of musical tones. That is why this piece begins with piano and—though it didn’t exist in his era—the cry of a strange bird (in fact, it was the cat in the OJ household).
	2.	Satie
Erik Satie proposed the idea of “furniture music,” often seen as the origin of ambient music. He was known for inserting humorous performance directions, a rebellious gesture that anticipated a rock-like spirit. At the same time, his compositional skill was first-rate: beyond his classical works, he left behind many pieces that resemble what we would now call pop songs. If he were alive today, he would surely be producing masterpieces of both ambient and pop music. This track was composed while imagining such a figure.
	3.	Moog
Dr. Robert Moog turned the sounds generated by electronic circuits into something anyone could play—through the instrument known as the synthesizer. His achievement is so monumental that it helped define the very shape of modern music. I believe he deserves to be praised alongside the great composers, and so I chose to inscribe his name in the title of this piece.

She's gonna work it out.
However, the MTG UPF (Barcelona) algorithm says this track is: 
Jazz Fusion (19%)
Downtempo (19%)
Ambient (18%)
Progressive Rock (10%)
Psychedelic Rock (9%)
The percentages represent confidence in genre judgments. 
Makes me happy.
I will always try to stay under 20% confidence in any genre. 
Promise you that :)
