■概要(overview)
自分の中の夏をイメージしました。
It was inspired by the summer inside me.

■歌詞
過ごした夏の数
まどろみの岸辺で
さざ波の記憶を
たどっているような気分
それは潮の綾

太陽を吸い込んだ
波の揺らめきが
瞼の裏で
揺れているずっと
寄せて返す幻

誰かが名前を呼んでいて
僕は浮かんでいるだけなのさ
時間が海に溶けはじめたころに
夏の風が冷たく感じて岸に向かった


モノクロームの夏
音の無い岸辺で
光の名残に
触れていたいような気分
夜が近い

波間に溶けていった
夏の幻が
瞼の裏で
僕を呼んでいる
その音で目を覚ます

誰かが波間に石を投げて  
小さな輪が広がっていった  
光と影をまといながら  
ちゃぷ　という音が胸に残った

いつまでもここにいたいな
浮かんでいたいよな
名前も忘れてしまったような
誰かに会いたいような

■Lyrics(google translate)
The number of summers I've spent
On the shore of my slumber
I feel like I'm tracing the memories of the ripples
It's the tides
The swaying of the waves that absorbed the sun
Swaying behind my eyelids
An illusion that keeps on ebbing and flowing
Someone is calling my name
I'm just floating
When time started to melt into the sea
The summer wind felt cold so I headed for the shore
Monochrome summer
On the silent shore
I feel like I want to touch the vestiges of light
Night is approaching
The illusion of summer that melted into the waves
I'm calling to me behind my eyelids
That sound wakes me up
Someone threw a stone into the waves
A small circle spread
Clad in light and shadow
The sound of splashing remained in my heart
I want to stay here forever
I want to float
I feel like I've forgotten my name
I want to meet someone

In these hot summer days, some fresh wind to cool us down. Thanks to my friend @georg-boehme who, despite his many commitments, participated with his fabulous saxes.
Here you can listen to our previous collaborations: soundcloud.com/francescocartocci/sets/danke-georg
For this song we played two tenor saxes, two electric guitars, keyboards(piano) and an electric bass.
Composition and all arrangements: Francesco Cartocci

To the wind - with Georg Boehme

That's what happens, when friends lend us their session room for recording... Thank you so much, Nico, Vince, Patrick & Mario !!! :)

■概要(Overview)
みんにゃについていけなくて、にゃんかノレにゃい自分・・
そんな感じの曲にゃ。みゃぁ、このギターが一番ノレてにゃいにゃん！
いい子だね！いい子だよぉ！
It's a song about not being able to keep up with everyone else and feeling a bit left out. Well, this guitar part isn't the most catchy though!
What a good kid! What a good kid!

■歌詞
夜の街をただ
あてもなく歩いた
どこかの客引きが
舌打ちをする夜

過ぎて行ったもの
探しているように
冷たいビルに紛れ
灯を探している

紛れていたい
同じものを見て
クスッとしたりさ

はやりの歌
友達同士で口ずさみたいな

でも何をしたって上の空
どうにもノレない
ズレてる感覚
自分を塗りつぶす
夜の灯　色を付けて
私を隠し　混ざり合ってゆく

真剣なまなざしで
作り話をする
無意味な時間さえ
捨てることも出来ない

過ぎて行ったもの
つかみ取った人が
冷たいビルに紛れ
灯を浴びる夜


誰かの歌　聴こえてきて
口ずさむふりをした
その時　少し混ざれた気がしたのだけど

でも何をしたって上の空
どうにもノレない
ズレてる感覚
自分を塗りつぶす
夜の灯　色を付けて
私を隠し　混ざり合ってゆく
夜をほどいてく

■Lyrics (English translation)
"Out of Sync Night"

I walked the city streets  
With no destination in mind  
A tout somewhere clicked his tongue  
On a night like that  

As if searching  
For things that have already passed  
Blending into cold buildings  
Looking for a light  

I want to disappear into the crowd  
See the same things  
And smile quietly with someone  

A trendy song  
I wish I could hum it with friends  

But whatever I do, I’m not really there  
I just can’t get into it  
This offbeat feeling  
Paints over who I am  
The city lights tint me  
Hide me, and I begin to blend  

With a serious gaze  
I tell made-up stories  
Even meaningless hours  
I can’t bring myself to throw away  

Those who’ve grasped  
What has already gone  
Blend into cold buildings  
And bask in the glow of night  

Someone’s song reaches me  
I pretend to hum along  
And for a moment,  
I felt like I belonged—just a little  

But whatever I do, I’m not really there  
I just can’t get into it  
This offbeat feeling  
Paints over who I am  
The city lights tint me  
Hide me, and I begin to blend  
Unraveling the night

ノレない夜(Out of Sync Night)

Sax, drums and jazz and roll

I should do more visual artworks but find myself playing the guitar instead .... basic influence and reason to buy a guitar many decades ago was english folk baroque style of Renbourn/Jansch. Actually met John Renbourn some years ago and he asked me why I didnt pick up my own folk tradition? ... yes why not... apart from that music is music.

what we did before
