Our first gig with #Teariscope after the Lockdown was crazy. Nice crowd, people dancing all along and everyone had lots of fun. Also the opening band #pecus was great!

Watch our short best of #video to get an idea. Can't wait for the next opportunity to be on #stage with the guys!

It's online! You can find the song on BandLab currently:

I'm about to release a new song for a #BandLab monthly song contest. I had to remix an existing track, which turned into a pop song and got some German lyrics. There aren't even any guitars included this time.

Now the lyrics were inspired by a picture my brother and his wife made, kinda got me into the idea of writing on this topic at some point. So I used that picture as cover art for my song 'Windwärts'.

(3/3)
After a long day of honest work
This Belgian blonde becomes our urge.
So sweet and with lots of character,
To get it on our lips is what we're after.
So we pick it up and bring it on,
But it sure ain't gonna be our last one.

*Chorus*

(2/3)

*Chorus*
We hold our glasses in the air,
Check the colour of the fluid
Inside there
We take our first sip,
One question's left:
What does it taste like?

Flavours of forest honey!

This vintage ale is dark and intense
Almost ruby and a bit pale.
It combines flavours of oak
The palate is slightly baroque
Spicy fruit cake aroma
Is what you can sense.

*Chorus*

The lyrics to my #fedivision entry "Flavours of forest honey":

Going out it's, Thursday night.
Meet some friends, have a quick bite,
To prepare ourselves
For beer tasting time.

It's our favorite bar we enter
We're familiar with the bartender,
She's aware of our mission
And she points us with precision
To new arrivals on the shelf,
So we continue to
drink every beer on earth!

@TQ well, I was surprised by your #fedivison entry. Not by the track itself but by the progress you made since last year. Good damn, you came a long way in 1 year! I have to admit that I haven't listened to your new album so far, but I will do so soon.
Your vocal parts are so much more powerful now. Compliments the whole rest of the song really well, which is, once again, catchy AF (still have an ear worm from last years 'Neon Lights' BTW). Really well done!

@wortspielfettgesicht just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed your entry to fedivision! It consists of only few elements, but I guess that's the key here. Not to easy, not to complex, some repitition but without getting boring. Can't wait to listen to more of your stuff.

Where to find that by the way?

Had a gig at a friends wedding last weekend and it was incredible! The crowd was going completely nuts, they were making a wall of Death...at a wedding...and the even the bride joined, still in her wedding dress.

Played some covers and few of our own songs, they were singing along in the chorus at the end each time (though they never heard our songs before). It was a really nice experience!

It's finally there, my first song 'Heroes' is released. Somehow turned out to be more current than ever.

You can find it on any streaming service of your liking (including YouTube): https://share.amuse.io/track/frankyfire-heroes

I also want to highlight the beautiful album art made by my friend sora.art

There's a petition going on to request a Linux driver for Universal Audio interfaces (especially the DSP Devices). Though I don't have any hopes that they will provide one I quite like the idea. Be sure to spread it with fellow musicians.

While working on a song, I was thinking about how to make it more 'alife'. While sitting there, rain started pounding against my window. I was like: 'this is it!', so I recorded that and use it in the background as ambient noise.

To make it 'bigger', put it on two tracks and panned it left and right. Sounds great!
If you want that rain recording too, I uploaded it on Freesound.org under public domain:
