Die Idee

Es sind Songs und längere Suiten, die ich in der Zeit von 2019 bis 2021 geschrieben habe. Viele Titel sind, passend zum Album-Titel „REFLEXIONS“, sowohl nachdenklich, reflektierend als auch Spiegelungen, quasi-optische Reflektionen von anderen Titel und Strukturen auf dem Album. Man begegnet immer wieder ähnlichen Motiven und Abläufen, denen aber immer wieder eine weitere Facette abgewonnen wird. Das Programm, was wir letztendlich aufnehmen werden, bestimmt ihr als Musiker mit: jeder sucht im Vorfeld seine / ihre favorisierten Stücke aus. Man kann das Ganze stilistisch wohl am Besten als eine Art „Fusion“ bezeichnen: Handgemachter, konventioneller Soul-Pop trifft auf überraschende Synthi-Sounds, improvisierte Jazz-Soli, World Music Elemente und Drum-Loops. Etablierte Strukturen lösen sich sanft oder plötzlich auf. Die Texte sind in sich gekehrt, spiegeln sich in anderen Album-Texten wieder und haben eine allegorische, mystische Komponente. Die Gesamt-Spieldauer der von mir geschriebenen und im März und April als Layout produzierten Titel liegt bei rund 93 Minuten – wir suchen davon gemeinsam ca. 60 Minuten für Recording und Konzert aus.

Die Planung

Ich habe zum Jahresanfang 2022 ein Stipendium von der GEMA und Neustart Kultur bekommen. Und zwar für die Ausarbeitung und Vorbereitung der Live- und Albumproduktion „REFLEXIONS“, die ohne diesen Support nicht möglich gewesen wäre. 
 

Geplant ist das Ganze für den Frühherbst 2022.
Am Ende soll folgendes dabei herauskommen:
• Aufnahme von ca. 60+ Minuten Ensemble-Popmusik in einem feinen Studio
• intimes „Club“-Konzert im selben Studio als schöner Abschluss
• Videoaufzeichnung von Recording-Tagen und/oder Schlusskonzert
• Upload der gemasterten Musik über einen Aggregator bei Spotify, YouTube etc.
• Upload des Konzert-Videos bei Video-Portalen, Webseite(n) etc.
• Kleinauflage von CDs (2023), mindestens für alle Mitwirkenden, ggf. auch mehr falls die Streams und Uploads gut laufen

SONGTEXTE | LYRICS

PART OF MY LIFE

INTRO

VERSE 1
My pulse is pacing,
It feels just right.
We text from time to time
About what’s on our minds

It was not like I feared,
Fear just disappeared
Disappearing felt weird,
My mind has been cleared.

My heart’s just racing,
Unforeseen sight.
We talk from time to time
About the rhythm in our lives.

I sense a warmth
When i think of you.
Feel myself
when I’m close to you.

PRE CHORUS
I’d like you to be
Part, Part of My life.
I’d like you to be
Closer, closer to me.

HOOK 1
Fell in Love with illusions,
Took care of delusions.
Thought it could be good start,
Didn’t realize we’re worlds apart.

Really jumped to conclusions,
Longed for easy solutions,
Took heart, took part, felt the knife –
Still not Part of your Life

INTRO

VERSE 2
I can’t stop chasing,
I’ve seen the light.
As you know word for word
What I see still blurred.

It was not like I feared,
Fear just disappeared,
Disappearing felt weird,
My mind has been cleared.

And I am facing
A source that’s too bright.
As you know word for word
What I had hardly heard.

I sense the north
When i think of you.
Do you feel yourself
When I’m close to you?

PRE CHORUS
I’d like You to be
Part, Part of My life.
I’d like You to Be
Closer, closer to me.

HOOK 2
Fell in Love with illusions,
Took care of delusions,
Thought it could be good start,
Didn’t realize we’re worlds apart.

Really jumped to conclusions,
Longed for easy solutions,
Took heart, took part, felt the knife –
Still not Part of your Life.

HOOK 4 / OUTRO, INSTRUMENTAL

EMBRACE THE UNPLANNED

VERSE 1

As long as I stay on my feet,
Gonna make it without help.
Going to follow myself,
Where this hidden road leads.

Never felt the need to cheat,
I’d rather walk than crawl.
No longer dwell on all.
The things I didn’t achieve.

PRE CHORUS / HOOK
You shook me up,
Now I enjoy the unplanned,
It broke me down.
But I embrace the unplanned.

HOOK / SWING INSTRUMENTAL
Take everything as a prelude,
Prepare for ever, ever, ever, ever changing moods.
Feel free cause there’s no certitude,
Enjoy a better, better, better, better attitude.

Feel free cause there’s no certitude,
Enjoy a better, better, better, better attitude.

VERSE 2
Won’t go places already viewed,
Gonna make it without help.
Find the way for myself,
I need my faith renewed.

Felt the need to retreat,
Maybe follow a lead,
Think about where to succeed,
Not what I didn’t achieve.

PRE CHORUS / HOOK
You shook me up,
Now I enjoy the unplanned,
It broke me down,
But I embrace the unplanned.

DIAMOND

VERSE 1

You helped me guide my life,
Guide my mind,
Into the right direction.

It should have made me tough,
Like a diamond,
just for self-protection.

Now it’s time to kick back,
And relax,
Switch of the flaw detection.

Learnt about the law,
Of attraction,
Enjoy all the reflections.

PRE CHORUS
Change_ for the better,
Change_ under pressure,
Change_ for the better,
Change_ under pressure.

HOOK 1
Changed for the better,
    Change _like a diamond.

    Change _like a diamond.

HOOK 2, INSTRUMENTAL
Change _like a diamond,
Change _like a diamond.

VERSE 1
You helped me read my mind,
Read my past,
We felt a close connection.

It should have made me tough,
Like a diamond,
Just for self-protection.

I still ended up,
As a copy,
In your big collection.

When you hear „diamonds“,
Don’t think of high life,
Just beautiful Complexions.

PRE CHORUS
Change _like a diamond,
Change_ under pressure,
Change _like a diamond,
Change_ under pressure.

IN THE SHADE

VERSE 1

When all thoughts fade,
Into this twilight sleep,
Old nightmares creep,
From all the darkest shades.

The mind of state,
Guess we’re knee-deep,
In a black sheep parade.

When lightness trades,
In one big giant leap,
For sun’s beauty sleep,
As ever changing states.

ENDE VERSE 1 / PRE CHORUS
Life fades to grey,
Slides, slides away,
Fades to grey.

INSTRUMENTAL / PRE CHORUS

HOOK 1
Oooh – livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade.

Oooh – livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade.

VERSE 2
When all thoughts fade,
I dream, but feel awake,
Can’t tell real from fake,
From all the darkest shades.

Got an opaque gaze,
From eyes of jade,
And it hurt like a blade.

Out of the gate,
The usual give-and-take,
Made a huge mistake,
Just found out It’s too late.

PRE CHORUS
Life fades to grey,
Slides, slides away,
Fades to grey.

INSTRUMENTAL / PRE CHORUS

HOOK 2
Oooh – livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,

livin‘ in the shade.

INSTRUMENTAL, SOLI

HOOK 3 / HOOK 4

livin‘ in the shade.

Oooh – livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade.

Oooh – livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade,
livin‘ in the shade.

VERSE 3 / OUTRO

Instrumental

At once asleep’n’awake,
While standing in your shade.
What’s hidden in the crates?
The portal of the shades.

We’re worlds apart,
A lot‘s at stake,
When did I start,
To live life in the shade?

LOVE GROWS ON TRUST

VERSE 1

Walked across the nightly quay.
Would we go all the way?
What is left is just today,
Feelings kept at bay.

It’s closing time, time to pay,
One last sip from the cold café.
What is left is just today,
Nothing left to say.

Last cigarette in the tray,
It’s been years since we lost our way.
What is left is just today,
I am going to pray.

PRE CHORUS

We had the best of days,
    Love grows on trust,
We had the perfect Mays,
    Love grows on trust,
We had the best of days,
    Love grows on trust,
So much more than a phase,
    Love grows on trust.

Love grows on trust,
Love grows on trust.

HOOK 1

Love grows on trust,
Love is if You adjust,
Do much more than You must,
Love grows on trust.

Love grows on trust,
Love is if You adjust,
Do much more than You must,
Love grows on trust.

HOOK 2

Instrumental

Love grows on trust.

VERSE 2

I asked „Do you feel O K?“,
You said „Like every day“.
What is left is just today,
Nothing left to say.

When did we loose and go astray?
Did we built a house to be razed?
What is left is just today,
Feelings kept at bay.

It was like watching a bad play,
Ev’ry moment tense like ballet,
What is left is just today,
I am going to pray.

VERSE 3 / INSTRUMENTAL

Love grows on trust.

PRE CHORUS

We had the best of days,
    Love grows on trust,
We had the perfect Mays,

So much more than a phase,
    Love grows on trust.

Love grows on trust.
Love grows on trust.

HOOK 3

Love is if You adjust,
Do much more than You must,

OPEN EYES

VERSE 1

I opened up, it took me by surprise ,
Had a feeling of diving in to deeps.
Never got the feeling this mountain’s too steep,
… While I dream – of open_ skies.

You opened up my life with auburn eyes,
Had a feeling it’s gonna take big leaps.
You’ve woken up the inner child that’s been asleep,
… While I dream – with open_ eyes.

PRE-CHORUS 1
For your presence dispelled all of my doubts,
You forced the impossible to be brought out.
While I dream about how your voice sounds out loud,
My glance drowns in puzzling brown shrouds.
I smell cinnamon clouds,
And the thought is cut out.

HOOK 1
Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,
Cause you’re on my mind,
    Dream, dream of open skies.

Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,
Cause you’re on my mind,
    Dream, dream with open eyes.

VERSE 2
I’m sure you did see these unspoken ties,
It seems in front of you I quell my fears,
Really thought we could be peers, spend all those  years,
… While we dream – of open_ skies.

Just over night this hope had crystalized,
It seems like never having shed these tears,
Felt your voice is on my mind, not in my ears,
… While we dream – with open_ eyes.

PRE-CHORUS 2

For your presence dispelled all of my doubts,
You forced the impossible to be brought out.
While I dream about how your voice sounds out loud,
My glance drowns in puzzling brown shrouds.
I smell cinnamon clouds,
And the thought is cut out.


HOOK 2
Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,
Cause you’re on my mind,
    Dream, dream of open skies.

Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,

    Dream, dream with open eyes.

Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,

Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,
Cause you’re on my mind,
    Dream, dream with open eyes.

LONG INSTRUMENTAL

SHORT INSTRUMENTAL incl. VERSE 3
We gave our best to transcend the lies,
Lost emotion’s game, wasn’t even close,
Had a clue we’d be close; felt love, not a rose,
… While I dreamt – with open_ eyes.

I am dead calm but I’m not tranquilized,
Got the notion I need another dose.
Felt good as time slowed down and my mind unfroze,
… While I dreamt – with open_ eyes.

LONG INSTRUMENTAL incl. BRIDGE & SOLI
For you made me see who I really am,
Turned out real diff’rent than I had it planned,
For you made me see what I really can,
You were a mystery, but now I understand.

For you made me see where I really stand,
List’ning to your heart had my fears all banned,
For you guided me without holding hands,
You were a mystery, but now I understand.

PRE CHORUS 3

For your presence dispelled all of my doubts,
You forced the impossible to be brought out.
While I dream about how your voice sounds out loud,
My glance drowns in puzzling brown shrouds.
I smell cinnamon clouds,
And the thought is cut out.


HOOK 3
Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,
Cause you’re on my mind,
    Dream, dream of open skies.

Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,
Cause you’re on my mind,
    Dream, dream with open eyes.

Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,
Cause you’re on my mind,
    Dream, dream of open skies.

Cause you’re on my mind,
Must have seen the signs,
Cause you’re on my mind,
    Dream, dream with open eyes.

SOUL DRIFT


VERSE 1

I thought I was immune,
Up until the 1st of June,
The ghost of your perfume,
yet in the abandoned room.

I thought I was immune,
Up until the 1st of June,
Saw you float across the room,
To a song by Jamie Woon.

But your look came way to soon,
Now it feels I run on fumes,
Like sliding sand from a dune,
While we’re in separate rooms.

Misjudged the obvious shift,
Still a sin to have missed,
The moment we should’ve kissed.

Afloat your Calm Seas,

While down on my knee.

I hear the ground shift.

Now I feel my life is zoomed,
Tryin’ not to be out of tune.

Saw you float across the room,
Like strings in perfect tune.

But your look came way to soon,
Now I feel the moment’s doomed,
And all old shadows loom,
On a sunny afternoon.

VERSE
Instrumental

Need a comeback,
after a bad start,
Aware of drawbacks,
If I lose my guard.
Need to bring back,
Make the time retard,
Like a shot to the Heart,
Of my defense.

Have to attack,
Make some great next plays,
It’s now stacked,
In so many ways.
Have to relax,
Make some great next plays,
Get back in shape and stay,
On the offense.

Aware of drawbacks,
If I lose my guard.
Need to bring back,
Make the time retard,
Like a shot to the Heart,
Of my defense.

Have to attack,
Make some great next plays,
It’s now stacked,
In so many ways.
Have to relax,
Make some great next plays,
Get back in shape and stay,
On the offense.

INSTRUMENTAL

HOOK
Loving you feels like Jazz,
    Like a no look pass,
To open up takes some class,
    Like a no look pass.

Loving you feels like Jazz,
    Like a no look pass,
To open up takes some class,
    Like a no look pass.

Loving you feels like Jazz,
    Like a no look pass,
To open up takes some class,
    Like a no look pass.

HOOK VARIANTE

Loving you feels like Jazz,

    Like a no look pass.

CHILD


VERSE 1

It seems that we are bound lifelong,
Always dancing to the same song_
 
It got to me, got under my skin,
Realized we are of the same kin_

Took me a while, Took me too long,
Found out I wasn’t really strong,
Past refrains in an endless song_

Just recalled the last time we smiled,
I missed the time to reconcile,
Dreaming bout the common child_

HOOK

It’s not to late,
To make room for the ones you love,
Look at it straight,
For the ones we think the world of.

No need to wait,
To find time for ones you cherish,
Don’t be afraid,
Love is love and needs to be nourished.

BRIDGE 1
It’s not to late,
(To) Step through the gate,
Look at it straight,
(Just) Without the hate.

No need to wait,
(It’s) Time to equate,
Out of the straight,
(And) Change the child’s fate____

VERSE 2
We came across as real headstrong,
Never trusting that we’ll get along_
Thought we stood still but it was a spin,
Reality will always win_

Took me a while, Took me too long,
Found out I was wholly in the wrong,
Past refrains in an endless song_

Just recalled the last time we smiled,
I missed the time to reconcile,
Dreaming bout the common child_

HOOK
It’s not to late,
To make room for the ones you love,
Look at it straight,
For the ones we think the world of.

No need to wait,
To find time for ones you cherish,
Don’t be afraid,
Love is love and needs to be nourished.

It’s not to late,
To make time for the ones you love,
Stepped through the gate,
Into the space we don’t know of.

No need to wait,
To find time for ones you cherish,
Don’t be afraid,
Love was love until it perished,

INSTRUMENTAL

BRIDGE, BREAKDOWN, BUILD
In your mirror I see who I am,
Looked on the outside for inner things,
In my head the same voice sings,
No idea what this future brings.
