Hi all,
please find my latest video in my YouTube channel. This is a song from my band SONIC LiQUID in a live acoustic sunday morning version. Armin had the idea and I have written the melody and the lyrics as usual. This is by far the slowest song from SONIC LiQUID, but I like it. Usually we play it in the middle of our live performance.
I have simply taken my iPad and recorded the video in the attic, so it is very pure and without sound effects. So I hope you don’t mind!
Have fun!
While checking my Youtube channel, I stumbled over a slide show of pictures reflecting the last years with my music. You’ll see some pics of my former band “Backporch Stringband” (–> Bluegrass Music) in Sindelfingen, pictures in the ARTheater in Cologne during the show “Kunst gegen Bares” with or without Hildegart Scholten ( 🙂 –> many regards!), on the “Fete de la Musique” in Cologne (–> Singer/Songwriter) and last but not least with “SONIC LiQUID” (–> Rock Music).
Music was recorded live with my hard disk recorder at a jam session with the “Backporch Stringband” (not perfect, but I like it!). I wrote the song “You don’t say a word” some years ago.
Have fun,
Robert
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:
Let’s see if this will be all :-).
Carpe diem!
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!
Robert Artley – voice recording of the last 2 songs (“Said and done” & “The dogs are barking”)
For all my friends:
The pictures in this slide show are reflecting some moments of the last 2-3 years incl. my song “You don’t say a word” in the live version with the Backporch Stringband (first pic) – recorded at a jam session!
Have fun,
Robert
I have recently uploaded a video of our latest song “Twisted Lies” in my YouTube Channel . This is showing pictures from my band SONIC LiQUID in our rehearsal room and on stage. I have added the lyrics as well so you can read along. 🙂
Have fun! Feedback welcome!

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
