ABOUT THE CURRENT LISTED SONGS
---------------------------------------------------
1) OF THE TIMES - 10/21/2009 NEW - Wrote and recorded this during an early morning bought of insomnia. Ambient - New Age - World fusion

5) Hunger - Working title - no vox - demoInstruments featured - Bouzouki - Saz - Zarb - Darbuka - Egyptian Tabla.
6) ANGEL OF LUST - First came the name, and not in a way you would suspect. I have been reading a collection of Science Fiction short stories and in Robert Silverberg's "Good news from the Vatican", a tale about the first robot to be up for election to Pope, a Rabbi character made mention of Talmud Bereshith Rabbah 85, and the "Angel of Lust"... And well.. I thought it was a perfect song title, and woke up the next day on a mission to put music to the title.
7) di'DREAM - (Re arranged - presently tracking vocals) Written in a semi lucid state - It was just handed to me by my muse and I somehow made it audible. It's my private little opium.
"They say the grass is always greener on the other side, well maybe it isn't, but it shouldn't stop you from dreaming of a better life and improving the one you have now."
