When I See You
----------------

When i see you
I could almost puke
When I see you
A strange shudder goes through and through
When I See You
My head turns bloodred
While the world shifts in two halves
And none of them would last
Without the other one…

When i see you
And that happens now and then again
It’s too uneasy to explain
My knees tremble
My mouth is all dry
My tongue is paralyzed
I break out in a sweat
I have to look at the ground
My breathing gallops
And then my heart that pounds
And am all agitated
I avoid all pictures of you
Try not to think about it too much
Close my inner eye, too…

When i see you
And that happens now and then again
Oh, it’s so uneasy to explain
My knees tremble
My mouth is all dry
My tongue is paralyzed
I break out in a sweat
I have to look on the ground
My breathing gallops
And then my heart that pounds… ahh…

solo

When i see you
You never talk to me
No reaction you show
Just stand somewhere off silently,
Peripheral,
In the background
Wthout a sound
How can I see what is not there ?
How can I remind what never took place ?
How can I feel that i was close to you,
Even if that was unreal, ?
And if I’d see you
As a monster,
As a hypocrate,
As a drama queen ?
And if i’d see you
As a mirror image ?
As a saviour ?
As a lover … ?

When I see you
Oh, when i see you
It’s so uneasy to explain
It’s too uneasy to explain…
When do I see you ?
When will i see you ?
When will i see you again ?

When I See You

Interference by Thom Yorke (my cover)

method: dr 01s; voice; vst (bells'n'chimes); the cover image shows part of the 'ultimate distortion engine' consisting of one exciter module, one piezo pickup (pledging for mono today) and one slate plate (it could be any other more or less sonically transducive material, though, including shaped materials like springs, material with other material spread out on top, etc .... which renders this engine ultimately versatile, incl all the processes feasable during amplification, eqing and gainstaging); white tape pedal;  vst (balalaika): more voices and then some; several eqing instruments (including CS-5 compressor pedal)
narration: 'we' did start the fire, by the way, and keep rekindling it

poem / copyright jo richter:

[hey you - can you smell it as well - must've been here just a moment ago]

nunamnir was here who tied the first knot
enkidu was here before he was tamed
vaidehi was here who was and was not
sharada was here who names and is named

heraclitus was here, a delian diver's lot
helen was here, booty to be blamed
archimedes was here, circles mark the spot
turanna was here ruling unashamed

heimdallr was here, threshold polyglot
boudica was here, rapists will be maimed
the morrigan was here, kin to thrive, foes to rot
mimir was here, as well he claimed 

il duce was here, traitors will be shot
de beauvoir was here, l'autre appears ingrained
ray kurzweil was here, future is a reboot robot
three sisters were here, looked on and remained

was here

A pretty wide variety of styles - jazz, funk, ambient, classical, world, worldbeat, experimental, alternative, industrial, reggae, electronica, latin, pop, game show music, more. Some unorthodox explorations here... have at it.
