Dear all,

I am very pleased to announce my next concert with SONIC LiQUID this Saturday, 13th of January 2018 in Cologne.

This will be a very special evening, as we will perform and celebrate with and for all our friends and fans and everyone who is open to new music. We are very excited to welcome you all and therefore we decided that the entry is free. You could donate some money to support our CD which we are working on – if you like! Let’s have fun and celebrate this Saturday night!

The program is packed full of our own songs. Here’s our set-list and we are very proud of it:

  1. Intro
  2. It’s hard
  3. The dogs are barking
  4. Burnin’ fields
  5. You’ll find your way
  6. Twisted lies
  7. Love’s overrated
  8. Afraid of you
  9. Sold out
  10. Waiting for a better time
  11. Under water
  12. It’s time
  13. Strong enough
  14. Just be
  15. A whole lot

Let’s see if this will be all :-).

Carpe diem!

SONIC LiQUID & Robert Artley – Voice recording

Posted by Robert Artley on October 8, 2017
Posted in: English, Fun, Music. Tagged: Cologne, Germany, Köln, music, musician, new song, new songs, recording, Robert Artley, Rock, Rockmusic, Said and done, singer, SONIC LiQUID, The dogs are barking, voice, voice recording. Leave a comment

Yes – I finally made it: I have finished recording my voice so that we “only” have to finalize the mastering of our 1st EP. A lot of fans asked us when our first record will be available. Now at least I can say everything is prepared :-).

All other SONIC LiQUIDs (Ralph, Armin, Thomas and Jens) had already recorded their instruments respectively, but it really took a long time for me to record my part.

Please be patient – this EP will be our first one and so we want to do an excellent job!

After winning a first price in the regional competition of young musicians „Jugend musiziert“ (category: Piano), Sarah attended the state competition in Münster (NRW) last week. Of course we supported her and we had a great day. The weather was awesome and we spend some time in the outside between the registration and the performance. Finally Sarah won a 3rd price in her category and we are all proud and happy! See the picture taken during the warming-up:

New Song with SONIC LiQUID – “Twisted Lies”

Thomas, Robert, Ralph and Armin on stage / Jens is on the very left – hard to see behind the drums

Inspired by the music arrangement of our guitar player Ralph, I wrote the lyrics of our new song. It is called „Twisted Lies“. This is more a poem than a song for me. Just listen to this and other songs on the homepage of my band SONIC LiQUID http://sonicliquid.de/public/index.php. Please send us your feedback!

Here they are the lyrics:

Twisted Lies

Lyrics by Robert Artley (25th February 17)

Music by Ralph Schnackenberg & Robert Artley

 

Fearful passion

Somewhere but there’s no release

Whispered seduction

Weakness but there’s no disease

Unfurled emotions

So painful – no kiss just a cry

Reckless abandon

No answer – just access denied

 

No one can feel my prayers

 

Behind a smile

Behind a word

Behind the eyes

There’s nothing but twisted lies

Pieces of hope,

Desperate and cold

There’s no disguise

There’s nothing but twisted lies

 

Dreadful feelings

Teadrops  – so bitter and sweet

Smiling sadness

And suffer your bruising defeat

 

No one can feel my prayers

 

Behind a smile

Behind a word

Behind the eyes

There’s nothing but twisted lies

Pieces of hope,

Desperate and cold

There’s no disguise

There’s nothing but twisted lies

 

I surrender my arms

Being out on a limb

Dare I hope to hope

Save my soul

 

Behind a smile

Behind a word

Behind the eyes

There’s nothing but twisted lies

Pieces of hope,

Desperate and cold

There’s no disguise

There’s nothing but twisted lies
