about

This tune is from 2009 and was recorded live (guit + voc) in the huge stairway of a building where I used to have a live-in studio. Inspired by the natural large reverb we set up a mic and I played around on my guitar. "Tell me" is a spontaneous improvisation... some fingerpicking, a melody and words that popped up right in the moment of being recorded. Getting lost in the beautiful sound of the location....
Later we added some voiceover, cello, bandoneon and a sort of vibraphone sound.

lyrics

uuh uhh uhh
tell me,
what´s on your mind?
tell me,
what do you hide?
Am I
part of this?
Can you
make me feel like this?
uhhh uhh uhhh
