Merci, Jean-Olivier. Nous avons eu un temps vraiment extraordinaire, et il me tarde d’y retourner pour poursuivre mon immersion créative.

Wow, such a creative environment!

Thank you so much for sharing and being part the birth of a blooming music!

Does the studio monitor is also minimalistic?

Alex Henry Foster's avatar

lol, only the monitor so far, we do have very supportive neighbors, but I figure it would be "safer" to keep the volume down a little... well, for me it is lol

Tangiers sounds more and more interesting.

We went to the hairdresser to get Nicoline's hair cut. It was very emotional for her to say what had to happen. 😢

It's still a beautiful painting but the frame has been removed. That's the way I see her and she feels it the same way, ❤️ although it's hard for her to look in the mirror.

there's no words to express just how precious you both are to my heart, Nicoline's journey is not one of lonely and despairs, nether is yours Eric, we are all walking at your side!!!!

Thanks for your kind words. Friday we heard that the blood values are good so we're now in the hospital for the second stint of chemo. This time around I have to stay in the main hall.

We both are positive and visit concerts we already booked. Air last saturday and next saturday Kraftwerk in the palace garden of the late queen Juliana.

If you come to Utrecht we (I hope she's fit enough by then) would like to show you around.

Wish all of you good health and good times.

Love from the both of us.

Next monday she'll have to scans. Body and head. At the end of that week we'll hear if the chemo has result. We're almost halfway so improvement would be nice but not a certainty.

We hope you are doing great at the moment.

"fake it till it looks like it" basically sounds like embracing the status quo to me...

Alex Henry Foster's avatar

Exactly, might take a lifetime commitment to enfranchise yourself from status quo pseudo-comfort, but once you actually found just enough will to do it, there's a whole world of new possibilities for you to embrace, and endless explorations to share with others.

This music excerpt is way too short... I could easily take 2 or 3 days of this, please! 🤣🤣🤣

Alex Henry Foster's avatar

interesting, right, it was our first jam session, total improvisation... was supposed to be a soundcheck lol... we ended up with 50 minutes of recording... like the amazing Bruce Springsteen recent records bundle he released, I'm working on any potential lost tracks to be share in 10-20 years or so lol

Such a very extraordinaire place. Amazing 🎸🥰

it is truly, after last year successive catastrophic passages here, ones that basically left me with a profond sense of collective grief and relational mourning reality, I'm slowly starting to feel positive vibrations here. I'm able to see or at least to acknowledge, that whatever how incredibly soulful a place might be, when it's filled with negative and toxic vibes, it will completely blind you from the blessing surrounded you all over. I'm very sensitive to that, so it's quite energizing for me to experience Tangier's inspirational benedictions once again.

Wow! L’endroit est magnifique! Il ne pourra qu’en sortir un album tout aussi magnifique! Créé dans le lâcher-prise, tout devient possible! J’ai bien hâte d’entendre le résultat! Prends soin de toi!

Oui, ça fait grandement du bien. C'est comme s'affranchir d'une lourde noirceur, une qui semblait impossible à s'extirper. Et oui, tout deviens possible maintenant.

The place is fantastic — I love the noisy music so much, and I really love the name of the studio too! Thanks for sharing the meaning of Fajar! It truly feels like a new dawn for you — I can sense it in the way you share with us. The place is bringing you something special, and I’m sure you’ll give back to it in return!

Alex Henry Foster's avatar

it is indeed a very special place, but one that could only embraced once I was disposed to free myself from all the different elements that essentially kept on holding me back for too long to even remember when it all started.
