Toy's Parade

eine seltsame Stimmung (oder nenne ich es Energie?) liegt in der Luft und irgendwie wollte dieses Stück einfach raus aus mir...
Angefangen hat alles mit dem Spontangesang "Ich hab nen Knall und manchmal macht (d)er Bumm", was in diesem Moment erschreckender Weise sehr passend schien...

a strange mood (call it energy?) is in the air and for some reason, this piece wanted to be realized... 
It all started with spontaniously singing a line that unfortunately can hardly be translated properly - basically it is a slang word for craziness ("Knall"), which also translates to a sudden loud noise, which is used in the second part: "Bumm" - it made all very much sense at the moment, which is a bit disturbing, to be honest...

============ Lyrics ============

Ich hab nen Knall
...
Ich hab nen Knall
und manchmal macht der Bumm

Ich schau gerade,
doch gerade schau ich krumm.
Ich schau gerade,
doch gerade schau ich krumm.

Ich denke laut
oder denke ich stumm?
Ich denk quer,
gerade, schief und krumm.

Ich hab nen Knall
und manchmal macht der Bumm
Ich hab nen Knall
und manchmal macht der Bumm

Wer denkt hier aus,
wer an, denkt jemand um?
Ich denke lieber nicht,
sonst …   

Ich hab nen Knall
und manchmal macht der Bumm
Ich hab nen Knall
und manchmal macht der Bumm

Wer denkt hier aus,
wer an, denkt jemand um?
Ich denke lieber nicht,
sonst denk ich, das ist dumm

Ich hab nen Knall
und manchmal macht der ...

We did it again. I'm proud to introduce a brand new release, another collaboration with a timeless, spaceless Mistress of Vocal Time and Space. Nearly needless to add I'm talking about Myrh (@myrhyum). We started this collaboration more than one year ago, but I've been having tons of issues, so... Now it's out, and we hope you all will enjoy it.
Allow me to bore you with a few words about how we did it. Myrh originally sang along a looped section of another (still incomplete) song of mine, featuring the guitar part that eventually turned out to be the initial guitar solo in this final version. I had only Myrh's vocals, a tempo and a few bars of a guitar solo. I added a track of sampled tablas: at first I thought of it as a mere tempo reference, but it sounded good, so I kept it. At this point, I had a vision of how the piece had to sound. I pictured Myrh's vocals flowing inside a starship running through darkened depths, backed by an invisible ensemble of musicians playing some kind of an alien raga.
I found the starship on my internet browser. I downloaded an audio file called 495-AAB from archive.org (https://archive.org/details/Voyager1/495-AAB_8min10sec.wav). It was recorded on the spacecraft Voyager 1 ( launch date: 09/05/1977) and it's in the Public Domain. I did some sound design on it, and it became an awesome drone for the song, perfectly fitting Myrh's vibe. Then I recorded a few parts using my children's toy-instruments: vibraphone, oud and tambourine. A few months went by before I could start working on the organ, and a few others as well before I could record another couple of tracks with bağlama and lyra. I eventually completed the guitar solo, then added bass guitar and sampled drums. Once again I had to stop, for a considerable amount of time, before I could do some editing, the final mix and the mastering.
My humblest and heartfelt thanks to Myrh for allowing me once more to collaborate with her, for her limitless patience with my inconsistent workflow, for this gem of a song that I tried to decorate with (more or less) alien sounds and noise. One last word about this somehow arrogant use of the tag SpaceRaag: I'm absolutely aware of lacking of sufficient musical knowledge in order to compose or perform an actual raag; this is merely a spontaneous creation, I only tried to mess around with these harmonies springing from Myrh's sublime vocals and my own science fictional sonic vision.

Dance For Me Now | Feat. Myrh

Genocide, June 2025:
Israel is only the executioner, every nation which has armed that country in the past year is an accessory to that genocide, an accomplice, a facilitator.  We cannot talk about war crimes because when you target unarmed civilians, mostly women and children, we are talking about a massacre, like terrorists do, not a war. The people who orchestrated that massacre, in the US, the most duplicitous, followed by those of the UK, Germany, France, and probably a few lesser ones should be tried for crimes against humanity just as well as Netanyahu and his cabinet, because it has been going on for two years, generously reported by media of all kinds, so the enablers knew exactly how the arms were to be used, as a tool for revenge, domination, and humiliation of the Palestinian people.  The conflict has ceased to be about the defense of anything for months.

The parties responsible have made a mockery of decency, morals, fairness, proportion, or justice, not to mention empathy.  Of what little there was, these concepts will be a lot longer to come back than they were to be struck down.  

Is it 1984 already?!?!

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
