Description : Some time ago I met the wonderful poet Yasmin on an open mic night. I'm usually not the biggest fan of poems on such occasions but hers was different - it was very long but also excellent and I knew right away I wanted to sing it.
Yasmin very graciously allowed me to use her poem, which is called "4 seasons"; this is what I made for "Autumn". I hope you'll like it - I hope you'll agree the poem is something special.
Another new track that might go on my new album.

Hello BaoBou, for me, this is probably the best song I've heard from you! A beautiful ballad! There is nothing in this song that doesn't fit or is disturbing. In my opinion, this song absolutely needs to be on your new album. Great guitar, great piano, great bass, and of course, that expressive voice. Best regards, Manuela
Thank you so much! That's a big compliment coming from the pro!
I try to let go any notions of being good or pro like you. I'm not. I'm just an old man in his man cave. But if you can hear I had fun then I'm happy :)
The production quality is top-notch, and the blend of melodies and rhythms creates such an immersive vibe. I especially love how the layers build up to keep the energy flowing throughout. You've really nailed the balance between creativity and structure. Very good one.
This is absolutely fabulous, great lyrics by your friend yasmin. Many of my poems I have wrote I have also turned into songs. the music is outstanding and it's great how you made the words fit so well. Kudos.
You have done a great job but with so many words it is I think more complicated to make the music fit - perhaps Kays comment about it fitting in a musical points to narrative weight of the poem. Still very well played and produced
Thanks Ian!
Your comment about fitting the music is well noted. You would want to see a bit longer musical break? That sounds very good!
I created some more space around 2:30 by muting one verse. What do you think? Thanks a lot man for listening and commenting honestly!!
It was a very difficult task this one BaoBou. You did an excellent work in adapting this beautiful poem to your music, which in this case really "hugs" the lyrics and everything becomes more warm and humane. Everything fitted very well and the outcome is an awesome song.
My best regards, Anthony.
I can totally see why you love those words - v cleverly written - your voice carries the emotion v well and the piano music is beautiful. I can imagine this in a musical. Kay0s

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.
Description : Feel free to check out the lyrics video on YT as well :) This is a new track based on the great vocals by Ashes and Dreams! Again, a mix of electronic/progressive/rock, any feedback is welcome
Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.
Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).

Description : In the 1700's the Comanche Indians became known as the Lords of the Southern Plains. The Comanche ruled a region that stretched across New Mexico, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado and deep into the Texas Panhandle. The most feared and savage warriors of all the tribes of the old West.
Many believe their spirits still ride the night wind here.
