dualing moog werkstatts driven by a silly simple sequence on the korg SQ64 i chose to use as the main engine behind this collection of music. I thought this one set the stage nicely so i selected it as the opener.

Can you see the morning light?

We’re gonna make the most of it tonight,

The other day you came to play
On your own, and then you
Made up your mind that love was blind
You’d take what you could find

Love was on your…

There’s a place where we all go

Better take it slow

Someone stole all your dreams

You change your mind way…
