Cheap Tricks on the Rooftop
<p>This piece is sovereignly dominated by bass and guitar. But when a favourable opportunity arises for the keyboards, they take over sole rule with a stroke of the hand. Quite surprising, because they didn’t even happen in the piece before. Of course, bass and guitar immediately comment with W.t.F? Will they be able to take back the lead? And on which side is the drums anyway?<br>Or are they rather two drummers that simply do their own thing?<br>And why do four attractive women dance to the tune on the roof? A diversionary manoeuvre of the Keyboard faction? Damn, do I have to speak a word of power and intervene here as an arranger?<br>At this moment I wake up bathed in sweat. Usually in such cases my first thought is: Now a nice whisky spritzer on ice. But as so often, I put this attractive thought aside again and start my recording device instead. Cheers, Mario.<br><a class="no-pjax" href="https://mariostresow.com/droehnhilde" data-link-type="url"><strong>Cheap Tricks on the Rooftop</strong></a></p>

Springtime
<p>Here comes my feather-light melody “Springtime”, presented by the vibraphone with its typical gentle, but also percussive sound. In the second turn, the bass drives with wonderfully groovy-jazzy swing lines and gives the number an even more moving forward feel. The classic Fender Rhodes keyboard sound can make friends with both and in turn gives a few rhythmic throw-ins. In addition, a few synthesiser sounds as a garnish, sometimes as an implied second voice in the bass, sometimes as a decepted choir. Last but not least, a swing drum kit that should hold everything together, but rightly complains about an underrepresented volume. What to do, someone always has to put back. With this components my number “Springtime” is ready, which immediately relaxes us and ensures a good mood. Reminiscences of Henry Mancini and Bert Kaempfert are awakened. The latter came from Hamburg just like me and both are among my all-time favourites.<br>Have fun listening: <a class="no-pjax" href="/fluffy-brainworks" data-link-type="page" data-link-label="Fluffy Brainworks" contents="Springtime"><strong>Springtime</strong></a></p>

Seven Seas
<p>King Bruno the Questionable was an innovative mind. And so he decided already 400 years ago to put a woman on a ship as a captain for the first time. This woman had to sail around all seven seas and was not allowed to return to her home port until this was done. Why and what was her mission, her task? Did she return and if so, in what condition? What happened to the ship and the crew during the voyage? Everything is told in my music <strong>Seven Seas</strong>. <a class="no-pjax" href="https://mariostresow.com/track/2860047/seven-seas" data-link-type="url" contents="https://mariostresow.com/track/2860047/seven-seas"><strong>https://mariostresow.com/track/2860047/seven-seas</strong></a></p><p>There is also a score available on my sheet page: <a class="no-pjax" href="https://mariostresow.com/sheet-music" target="_blank" data-link-type="url" contents="https://mariostresow.com/sheet-music"><strong>https://mariostresow.com/sheet-music</strong></a></p>

St. James Infirmary
<p>American Traditional. Recorded November 2020. <br>I came across this piece in a guitar school book. Playing the tune from the score I thought, this is one the melodies that make you think: I know it - even if you actually never heard it, which was the case with me. Without listening to any existing recording I decided to play my own version. Doing so I created the intro / outro chord changes. Then I came up with that slightly strange theme that follows everytime the main melody is through. To me that sounds as if the composition has been exactly like that. Fits perfectly. I figured out the accompanying chords for this additional somewhat weird theme and used these also as a backing for the solo. Nice thing for me was to create the bass lines. I played them on the guitar instead of the bass, and they are also an important part in terms of the mood of this arrangement. Ahoy, Mario Stresow.</p>

Life and death
<p>This sounds like coffee and cake. Speaking of which, can I have another piece? No, that's not possible now and casual shenanigans are not in the right place at the moment. This is what the editorial director speaks in my ear. It's finally about - right: life and death. Sounds common as a combination. But when you look closer, questions arise: </p>
<p>Life, okay: From its origin through a possibly joyful and lustful, if not ecstatic act (to which the neighbors complained afterwards) about the following serious event of birth, it goes purring to live through life with its childhood, adolescence, adulthood and finally old age. So far, so clear, this is life. At the end it will end by dying. Bonged. </p>
<p>Let's get to death now. And that makes things weird. If you die, you'll be dead afterwards. Cut and end, but can also drag on. Anyway death happens with the death process and that's it. So seen a huge difference to life. Life goes through many decades. There is development. There is felt, loved, there is joy and suffering. There are events and decisions, coincidences and surprises. And even marzipan potatoes in the run up to Christmas. So a lot going on, what shapes you and what's going on about photos, movies and writings. Sometimes also pictures, poems and compositions. </p>
<p>And then death. You're just supposed to be dead and there's nothing left after that? Why, you could say, it's good. There's a lot going on on one side and there's nothing left on the other side. So you don't have to do anything anymore, do nothing more, pass tests, overcome no more difficulties - you don't have to do anything anymore and have peace of mind. Great, let's leave it like that. So far it would also be appropriate to expressions like ′′ RIP ′′ and ′′ Eternal Rest". But you think so.</p>
<p>Now fantasies come into play. Understandable because some people can't or don't want it to be over like that and then nothing else. I find fantasies interesting in principle too. But some of these fantasies are called religions. And these are unlikeable to say the least. Because these constructs are working with reprisals and regulations in this world at threat of torture in the afterlife. So after passing away, you don't have peace of mind. Rather, you get to the recent court. And that's where it's decided: heaven or hell. In case of not so bad offences, you may still go to heaven, but you can only become a cloud shampooer there. Or you have to take care of the dirty laundry of the angels.</p>
<p>Then there's the imagination that death doesn't happen simply because of the insufficient functioning of vital organs. Rather, someone is assumed to get you: The Reaper. Creepy. But with further concerns, it's more sympathetic. Because when the time comes, I'd probably get my pants thoroughly first. But then maybe I'd manage to get him involved in a conversation after all. I could offer him beer and meatballs and address an appointment postponement if possible.</p>
<p>Here is my latest composition and recording, with deals with the theme. I made a video with an german text. Sorry for that, if you do not understand german. In that case you can also listening only to the music by following the second link:</p>

Sexy Lover
<p>You can have one or keep one. Some pay for it. And there are even more possibilities: It does not necessarily have to be a human being. Ladies sometimes prefer the battery-powered version in the form of a small electrical device. This can be conveniently stored in a handbag and can also be used behind a desk or in the back of a bus when there is not much going on. The suspicious looks of the driver in the rear-view mirror only increase the attraction. </p>
<p>Men on the other hand sometimes prefer an inflatable version. It is then lovingly folded up and then carefully stowed away in its place until the next time it is needed. In a family setting, one can also say: Hidden. </p>
<p>That reminds me of the story my friend Torsten had to experience last year: As usual he drove home from work by car. When he turned into his street, he could already see what was happening on the grounds of his house. It was summer and his two children were playing in the pool and indeed - that's what shocked him immediately: With Nancy. </p>
<p>Nancy in working condition, that is, filled to bursting with air. So they had found her, shit. He had thought the hiding place was very good, but you never know where the brats hang around everywhere. He knew that from his own childhood and youth. Now they were having fun with it. Even some of the neighbors looking over from the adjacent property cheered, the direct neighbors were filming with their smartphones. </p>
<p>He drove past the driveway and stopped around the corner. Nervously he rummaged in the glove compartment, there must still be a pack of cigarettes. Yes, lucky, found, also the lighter. </p>
<p>He had had Nancy in his company for a while. Still the first one, although there were newer models with some interesting technical innovations. He had got used to Nancy and had shot at her, had given her this name, too. He had always treated her with care and kept her clean. Now he wasn't even sure if she would survive unscathed, the way the children were just treating her. </p>
<p>My goodness, he had sometimes talked to Nancy during and even after that. Well, actually, he had only talked. How he felt and how he saw things. Different things. Was that still normal? What does normal mean, after all, even between married couples there are longer word contributions, which in the end are only monologues. </p>
<p>He was about to light his third cigarette when he flinched because there was a knock on the window. His wife. They already had eye contact when she knocked on the window pane again, because he hadn't opened the window yet. Now he finally put it down and she said, "Good morning, sir," waving the escaping smoke away with her hands. In the meantime he had turned bright red and only brought in: "I, uh ..." out. Whereupon she replied quite crabby: "Kiss mine." That seemed to be the end of the conversation, because now she marched straight back to the house. </p>
<p>Don't you think that Torsten must be a pretty close friend of mine if I know all this from him? Or does this Torsten not exist at all and I made it all up as usual? Or is this Torsten my father and I was one of the playing children back then? In the end, is it even an autobiographical story? Critical questions that I will have to face one day. But not now, back to the topic: </p>
<p>Still others only dream of having someone or something like that. Those are also completely satisfied with it, because in reality it would perhaps be too elaborate. Sometimes also too dangerous, risky and consequent: Many of us have been connected for many years, often with the corresponding circumstances in the form of offspring and shared home ownership, see Torsten. There is no need to put anything unnecessarily at risk. </p>
<p>In addition, whether connected or not: Not everything that you dream of is even intended to be realized in real life. After all, you can also just let your thoughts wander while your skilled fingers do their job from sensitive to rapid. Maybe some of you still remember the hit line: "You are not alone, because you have your imagination ...". </p>
<p>I have approached the topic - as I would like to emphasize at this point - exclusively in story and song form. I have worked hard to at least compress the lyrics to the most necessary, but listen for yourself:</p>

0,005 cent per stream - Fie!
<p>Dear visitors, </p>
<p>An essential content of this website is the publication of my compositions, which you can listen to here for free. <br>If you like my music, I would be glad about a financial support. There are two possibilities for this on the page with the compositions: A general support, or the purchase of individual titles. With the purchase you receive audio files of high quality via download. <br>Unfortunately composers get almost no remuneration with the streaming that is common today. It is about 0.005 cent per stream. In this respect I would be happy about your financial support, if you consider my music worthy of it. <br>Due to the shameful remuneration on the part of the streaming platforms - the same applies to youtube, by the way - I will only present my music on my website in the future. Here you can find my compositions, arranged chronologically, the newest always on top:<br><strong><a contents="https://mariostresow.com/compositions" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://mariostresow.com/compositions">https://mariostresow.com/compositions</a></strong></p>
<p>Ahoy, Mario Stresow. </p>

Since you came along.
<p>is my latest recording, this time a blues. It is the title music to the motion picture "All main things went wrong". The only problem is that this movie has not been produced yet. But even without this film there may be reasons to have a drink or two at midnight. Sitting on a staircase at the harbor, drizzle sets in. The perfect situation to listen to "Since you came along". <br><a contents="https://mariostresow.com/single/20590/since-you-came-along" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://mariostresow.com/single/20590/since-you-came-along"><strong>https://mariostresow.com/single/20590/since-you-came-along</strong></a></p>

After Sorrow Comes Laughter
<p>A romantic, melancholic and relaxing melody, just recorded yesterday. It is a guitar duet that I wrote for my guitar students. And it turned out to be the best best case: An Etude that is not only for to practise but also sounds nice:<br><strong><a contents="https://mariostresow.com/single/20261/after-sorrow-comes-laughter" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://mariostresow.com/single/20261/after-sorrow-comes-laughter">https://mariostresow.com/single/20261/after-sorrow-comes-laughter</a></strong></p>

Concert in Hamburg on September 20, 2020
<p>It is nice to hear that our concert on September 20th in Hamburg (3pm, Open Air "Planten und Blomen") will take place. Sad enough it is only the 2nd gig of the band this year. I will keep you informed about possible restrictions for visitors. The photo is from our gig last year at the place.<br><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/446656/c5ab2ed1893233541b01f87a03acf8c1f576f59b/original/bj-plantenunblomen-2019-cut.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>

SHE - now with lyrics
<p>In the meantime I asked my friend and music colleage if he would like to write some lyrics and sing it on my composition "She". Well, he did and I could not imagine anything better than he sensitive voice for this song. Great Job!</p>

Concerts cancelled - but
<p>IMPORTANT: All concerts till September 2020 have been cancelled. I strongly hope that our traditional concert with "Bun - Jon & The Big Jive" on <span style="color:null;"><strong>September 20th 2020 in Planten & Blomen in Hamburg</strong> will happen! Especially since this is open air and we have enough place to keep us kinda separated I hope it will be allowed. I´ll keep you informed!</span></p>

BEING A MUSICIAN DURING THE CORONA CRISIS
<p>Dear visitor, </p>
<p>I am an independent musician, which means: I work live as a guitarist, give guitar lessons and compose music. For the next foreseeable time all concerts have been cancelled and the music schools where I work have been closed. <br>And at the moment nobody can say how long this will last! </p>
<p>This means that the corona virus crisis is also leading to a fundamental financial crisis for me. But there are still my compositions that I can offer you to listen to. On my page COMPOSITIONS I offer you to listen to many of my music pieces with newly made covers. My homepage is new, so it will be filled up during the next weeks. I offer you one download per piece for the price of your choice - starting at 1 Euro. </p>
<p>On the other hand, these are no longer the days of downloading. Nowadays streaming is more the thing. I have published some of my tracks on the usual platforms for that purpose, but: Since I get extremely little money per stream, I have stopped publishing there. </p>
<p>Thank you for reading this article. Maybe you appreciate my COMPOSITIONS and think that it's a good thing to give some money for it and support me a little bit in the Corona crisis. Thanks a lot! If you want to throw some coins into my guitar case, you can easily do so via the support link on my</p>
<p><a contents="compositone page&nbsp;" data-link-label="Compositions" data-link-type="page" href="/compositions"><span class="font_large"><span style="color:#ffffff;">composition page </span></span></a></p>
<p><br>Thank you very much for coming along, Mario.</p>

New website
<p>Being a client of squarespace now for years I'm still satisfied with that company to host my website.On the other hand I feel some restrictions there which forced me to look around for something new. After trying out some years ago I was now coming back to BANDZOOGLE. And I discovered that they had improved in a very good way. I´m pleased with the workflow and the possibilities they give. So here it is, my new website on bandzoogle. I hope you like it.</p>
