There's a place for us

A time and place for us

Hold my hand and we're halfway there

Hold my hand and I'll take you there

Yvonne King : 1920 - december 13 2009

Imagination is funny, it makes a cloudy day sunny

Makes a bee think of honey just as I think of you

Imagination is crazy, your whole perspective gets hazy

Starts you asking a daisy "What to do, what to do?"

The King Sisters - Imagination

Ramses Shaffy : august 29 1933 - december 1 2009

't Is stil in Amsterdam

De mensen zijn gaan slapen

Hmmm hmmm

De auto's en de fietsen

Zijn levenloze dingen

De stad behoort nu nog

Aan een paar enkelingen

Zoals ik

Die houden van verlaten straten

Om zomaar hardop

In jezelf te kunnen praten

Om zomaar hardop te kunnen zingen

Want de auto's en de fietsen

Zijn levenloze dingen

't Is stil in Amsterdam

Jacno : July 3 1957 - November 6 2009

Eh toi, dis-moi que tu m'aimes

Même si c'est un mensonge

Et qu'on n'a pas une chance

La vie est si triste

Dis-moi que tu m'aimes

Tous les jours sont les mêmes

J'ai besoin de romance

Lio - Amoureux solitaires

Maryanne Amacher : February 25, 1938 - October 22, 2009

When played at the right sound level, which is quite high and exciting, the tones in this music will cause your ears to act as neurophonic instruments that emit sounds that will seem to be issuing directly from your head

... (my audiences) discover they are producing a tonal dimension of the music which interacts melodically, rhythmically, and spatially with the tones in the room. Tones 'dance' in the immediate space of their body, around them like a sonic wrap, cascade inside ears, and out to space in front of their eyes

... Do not be alarmed! Your ears are not behaving strange or being damaged!

... these virtual tones are a natural and very real physical aspect of auditory perception, similar to the fusing of two images resulting in a third three dimensional image in binocular perception

... I want to release this music which is produced by the listener ...
