JoosTVD - The Fly on the Wall Routine (2019) Hi-Res

My 15th digital release since 2005, marks my 40th year as a songwriter. No, I won’t look back though! I just follow my instincts and compose. And the results you can hear in these 12 songs. I always try to find the right hook or melody- whatever style- that tickles, surprises and motivates me to have them fit into a new album. I embrace all kinds of music in my own subjective way. There’s often an hypnotic groove and chords that oozes jazz, latin, funk, R&B spiced with a goofy ironic slapstick humour. I’ve got a lot of more ideas and that helps me even more to become selective.
Guess I’m a “Fly On The Wall”, the observer sucking it all up, whatever comes around that gives way to write about it:
Yes, “Fly Talk”, get “Stuck” in their daydreaming, don’t “Behave”, can’t always “Say The Word”, commit “Treason” when there’s a reason, become “The Vanished Vaudeville” in a melancholic way, come back to reality and “Kick Together”, take their time and say “Not Today”, show their teeth when “The Gloves Are Off”, you “Do Your Job” and face the jerk, reflect with “U Know That Now”, won’t lose their humour with “The Fly Of The Wall Routine”
