it could happen

Standing on a tiny feeling wave
I asked myself.

What I always wanted
Was real closeness to you,
Every time I tried, I failed.
Every word I should have said to you
Was swallowed up by demons inside,
Was swallowed up inside.
Infinite deepness was beyond my reach,
But the longing was strong,  the Longing was strong,
And the closeness so far
And only these scars remind me of the war I waged with my little ray of hope 
Against myself, against myself, against all darkness.

Standing on a tiny feeling wave
I asked myself.

What I always wanted I let go like a tow rope I was hanging on, 
Unable to move on, so I held on to you. 
There was nothing you could do to help me out of this swamp, 
I kept on trying to drown myself again and again and again. 
So the days went by and you had enough of this unhappy man. 

Standing on a tiny feeling wave

I had no words, you had patience no more
Had no words, you had patience no more 
And I would have really liked to find out what closeness is for.

Standing on a tiny feeling wave
I asked myself.

Standing On A Tiny Feeling Wave

Hey Everybody!
My first post after a long time. It's about a visitor who isn't welcome to me, but sometimes I have to accept that he is here. 
With my best wishes to you all for the new year!

The Visitor

so back in time again to the start of this brand new millenium , here is a very cynical inspection of this thing we call romance . I thought this would be timely to put out there.

Valentines

Valentines (Raw Demo 2002)

Experiment forcibly using new equipment all in one track. Well, this happened. It's kind of interesting I think.
I treated myself to a Twisted Electrons "Blast Beats" groovebox.. the lowest-fi glitchiest piece of cr*p equipment you can buy for not cheap. And I love it. Straight from the realms of Dystopia
Also, less prominent: some pad created with a Roland JD-08. Yummy. What an excellent little gem that.
Also in the mix: Elektron model:cycles. I am assuredly going to do a concept album or at least EP with that thing.
Vocals were recorded using a TritonAudio Fethead Transformer. That's a very neat in-line pre-amp running on phantom power.


I threw some lyrics together about things that are pretty current, and keep me busy, so here they are:

lyrics

Were you someone, I have to be asking
grew up serene, away from the struggle
and strife now presented that never did touch you
but words of deception that make you believe
that the world was on fire, injustice abound
right at your doorstep to take all your freedom?
but just close your eyes, there was never a real threat
other than the ones of split tongues and venom!

wired up, side on break the violence
fired up, ride on, hear the silence

tell me again who you were once ago
when the future was open and dreams were allowed
think of exactly who told you the difference
between cats and dogs and the hits that were misses?

the tales that were spun on a landfill of gaps:
all cognitive bias we need to unlearn!
projection, reflections, deflections, the point is
we all want our freedom and peace with the world

wired up, side on break the violence
fired up, ride on, hear the silence

Thank You for 1000 plays ❤️!

I was wandering what happens when I'll try to make song base on starting patch from NI Massive. And this came out ;) Thanks for listening. I hope You'll enjoy.

I wanna point out that all instruments are VST. 

Thanks to:
Alexander Stratonov (@ephtrackx) for lots of great tips and advice on the final mix,
Brian Butts (@brian-butts-565934842) for reviewing guitar solo.

The Break in Tranquility

The Break In Tranquility

Enigma

A cover version of the song "Europa (Earth's Cry Heaven's Smile)" composed by Carlos Santana and Tom Coster. (Edit: Mastered with iZotope Ozone on 25 September, 2023.)

You know, for all my life I've played mostly for myself. But then I discovered SoundCloud and then suddenly as of fall 2022 I have been blessed with the possibility to play for you (in addition to listening to you and with you). 

So, here is a modest version of one of the loveliest songs I have ever heard, played here by me with the Yamaha Montage 8 synthesizer. I have never had a real DX7 and I wanted to try to play a whole tune using only DX7 sounds the beauty of which surprises me every time (especially the guitar sound is incredible in my opinion). Here all but the drums are to the best of my knowledge as pure DX7 as it can get with Montage. 

The sounds used are E.Piano1, ElecBass, Guitar1, Syn-Lead1, Strings2 (converted wonderfully by Hideo Harada, Kamoda Music). The drums and drum groove are "Emulated CR-78 Kit" (Roland CR-78 drum machine) from the awesome Montage "Vintage Machines" soundbank by Easy Sounds.
