- Richard Thomas — I've added 4 new (old) songs!
-
- Hi friends, I've recently added four new songs to my page, relatively old for me but new for this site: Two more or less spontaneous instrumental improvisations (category: humor) and two songs, 'Bushmensong' and 'Mystery to Me'. The latter being based on an improvisation of words, guitar and Groove Agent. The lyrics seemed meaningless at first but in retrospect they reveal some meaning, at least to me. I hope you like them. read more...

- aeronaut — Mit dem Wind - adaptation by Mindmovie featuring Sara England
-
-
Description: For my international "On the wind" project on myspace, I asked several people to write a version in their own language and style for my song. Mindmovie is the first to come up with a beautiful german version called "Mit dem Wind". The german speaking people will notice that is freely translated lyrics are really beautiful and at the same time true to the original. The music is, as we are used from him impeccable. Sara England's emotional singing goes straight to the heart. Amazing work by 2 great artists here on mi7.
Mit dem Wind Mit dem Wind
Ziehst du davon
gehst dahin im Flammenmeer
Feuer brennt so lodernd heiß
und mein Herz, gefriert zu Eis
Du bist fort
in eine andr’e Welt
Und dein letzter Gruß
verweht am Himmelszelt
Nie wusste ich das Morgenlicht
So kalt mir in die Seele sticht
Ich laufe weg
verberge mich
was immer ich auch tu
vergessen kann ich nicht
Die Zeit mit Dir hier Jahr um Jahr
All Dein Trost wenn ich mal traurig war
Auf dem Wind
und außer Sicht
Dein letzter Flug
In’s helle Licht
Das Feuer brennt ich bin allein,
doch am Ende werd’ ich bei Dir sein
Feuer brennt so lodernd heiß
und mein Herz, gefriert zu Eis
Bin alleine...

Although This side is now soooo painfully slow that it is no longer a real funny thing to upload something - here is a new song. Welcome to any visitor who wants to leave a comment about the music. This title features Sara England on vocals - she as well as myself have discovered what it means when you a re trying to build a "house of love" with the wrong person. That's what this song is about.

Dear friends,
I wrote a small piece of music this weekend.
I have called it "Voices, a small prayer for a new year". I hope 2008 will be more peaceful than the year we leave behind.
I wish peace, love and happines to you all. The song is downloadable on myspace, as a new year's present to all my friends, as a thank you for all your support. I might turn it into a song one day...
best wishes,
Jef

- aeronaut — Stand up against music censorship
-
-
Since this is a community of musicians, I thought this was a good place to bring this under your attention:
Imagine the world without music. Or imagine a world where we are told what to play, what to sing and even what we may listen to in the privacy of our own homes. That world already exists. In more countries that you might imagine, musicians and composers are under threat. And that threat is growing.
In countries like Sudan, Afghanistan and China, violations of musician’s rights to freedom of expression are commonplace. In the USA and Algeria, lobbying groups have succeeded in keeping popular music off the concert stage, and out of the media and retail. In ex-Yugoslavia musicians are often pawns in political dramas, and the possibility of free expression has been aversely affected.
Freedom is one of the post precious things we have, but too often and too easy we let it take away.
We, musicians, can support our colleagues in their struggle against music censorship and oppression.

- aeronaut — More songs on Ann's MI7 page
-
- Ann, my singer now has her own page here on mi7. Visit Ann's page on MI7 here. You can listen to more songs from our "Songs of Love and Loss" project, and hopefully vote for them. On her page is our new song Taken. This song is about dealing with the loss of a child, perhaps the greatest loss one can ever suffer. The song was inspired by an article in the newspaper. Roman Drowart told how he was dealing with the tragic death of his 2-year old daughter Luna. She was killed on the streets of Antwerp, together with her Malian nanny Oulemata Niangadou, in a racist shooting. You can read more about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luna_Drowart read more...
