STORIES from “The 8th day of the week" :

Sausage Playing Golf - This is the eighth day of the week, anything is possible in the eighth day of the week, even a sausage can play golf! If you don't believe us join the sausage club clan and start playing golf with us right now! We will all become sausages by the end of the night so give it up for the sausages playing golf and "Mangro the Gambler" the pioneer and mastermind of the club!

Shazad the Bugbuster - This is the true story of how I met Shazad. My friend Ali told me there was a big event at Epsom Derby (London) for a horse race and that we should go work as security officers. The "security job" was actually telling cars that they couldn't go this way but thay had to go the other way around to exit the horse race track. Me and Shazad were in control of the same street but no cars were passing so we had nothing to do. However many bugs were getting stuck in our yellow florescent jackets so Shazad started picking bugs of my shirt. I thought it was cool how he looked at me with his long beard and hypnotic eyes and took bugs of my shirt so I started taking bugs off of him to. The bugbuster crew was born, "put your hands up, take the bugs off". We talked a lot too and listened to mass on his MP3 player. Even though we only spent 8 hours together taking bugs off each other's shirt I feel like we are friends and represent the bugbuster crew!

STORIES from “A Million Stories”:

When I composed the music for these songs I was thinking of stories about my life experiences mixed with a little bit of imagination. For this reason, I named this collection “A Million Stories”.


Back to the Land of Nowhere – I wake up one morning as usual, take my car and go to work. Suddenly I feel trapped in a tunnel from which I cannot escape and forced to go back to a place where I don’t want to go, where everything disappears, a place that doesn’t exist. I am back to the land of nowhere.

Desert Girl - I am lost in a desert with no food, no water, completely disoriented. The night comes down and I keep walking until I fall to the ground almost dead. A windstorm follows and from the clouds a girl that resembles a goddess comes down and casts a spell on me. The desert becomes a green garden with waterfalls and trees. I wake up listening to her song. We fall in love but then I realize I have to go because the spell will fade away in air soon. The scene moves to the ocean where I disappear for a distant land.

The Spell – Part of Desert Girl.

Jungle Boy - Is a dialogue between me and the projection of me in a distant galaxy. In this distant galaxy I live in the jungle and play dangerous games. I ask my other self “why?” and he replies “Now you want to know the truth”. Sometimes it’s better not to know the answer to a question you might ask yourself and leave space to imagination

The Chase – When writing this song, I was thinking of a chase scene from a 70’s action movie like Shaft, Starsky and Hutch or Bruce Lee.

Hypnotic Dance – In a far away country, I participate in a ritual of the snake dance. Along with the snake, a girl with dark eyes is dancing and staring at me. After seducing me, I remain completely hypnotized by her.

Time In Transit - There is no beginning and no end, the end is a new beginning. Time can be a circle or a straight line. May apocalypse come, time will always be in transit.
