From Berlin With Love (A Bleep & joerxworx collab)

Four walls 

talk to me 
tell me anything 
that you don’t want to see me 
even that, it will fit me

Look at me 
I got you some chocolates 
I know you used to love it 
Today I don’t know, I don’t know anymore 

Where are you? 
We die of your absence 
of this indifference
your mind dances
between these four walls

talk to me 
hear your voice again 
to finally feed hope 
one day we’ll see you again

Remember 
that you guided our steps 
you were our king 
how to do without you 
we don’t know anymore 

Where are you? 
We die of your absence 
for you nothing matters 
you live in silence 
between these four walls

Where are you? 
We die of your absence 
please take the hand 
that I hold out to you
if there is a chance 
then talk to me
even if it hurts
I need to know 
if you know it’s me 
who's standing here in front of you.

Quatre murs (translated)

Note on Lyrics - Tam Jennifer

This is a dark one - so a disclaimer for my listeners - one of my inspirations for this was from the thought experiment "Imagine one hand clapping" that we use in yoga or meditation practice, mixed with the idea of "Unstruck" - The word associated with the heart. The Unstruck Sound. - A beautiful way of thinking of it. 
So mixing these ideas - makes it fairly straightforward to produce a love song featuring (what I hope is ) a fairly accurate portrayal of what love can sometimes feel like - in all its complexity.

Lyrics

There's something in the air between us, my dear.
It's a whisper that you can't, hear.
There's something in the air between us, my friend.
An agony - we can't comprehend. 
.
In this space between, you and me,
Is an ache so deep, and lonely,
With a climb so steep, to get there,
The air is thin, it's suffocating, oh! 
Just out of reach. 
Like a memory, oh! 
But the weight of this is crushing, oh! 
Where do I end?
And where do you begin?
I gave you my heart, to keep,
Safe.
Safe.
You promised me! 
.
Calm, calm, calm and slow. 
Darken the windows.
Hope is a long road.
Time is a quick trick.
.
Calm, calm, calm and slow!
Darken the windows. 
Hope is a long road.
Balancing in the thick, thick.
.
It's like, God, wrote me a poem. 
-
And now I know I'm alive. 
Alive. 
.
It has to have a place to go! 
So you MUST know. 
Your face is perfectly placed - 
Your face is perfectly placed - 
.
On Love's Road. 
.
-End-

Moonlight Dance (feat. Fr. Harris)

I search for sounds and assemble them. I purposely switch the order. I try switching different rhythms for each phrase. Usually, a song is born that is like a "poker hand" with no winnings. This time, an image was born. An image that I didn't intend to create appeared. It's a lot of fun to fantasize about where I'm heading.

Lyrics:

I had a love in my life
Strong feelings, nothing to hide
In time love started to fade
And a brand new love appeared

Why can't I love both of you
Why is it wrong to be in love with two
It is so painful to choose
If I choose one
Two of us will loose..

I put all emotions aside
Avoiding the choice I have to make
Inside I am thorn in two
Know I have to leave one of you

Why can't I love both of you
Why is it wrong to be in love with two
It is so painful to choose 
If I choose one
Two of us will loose..

Made the choice I had to make
With the one I already had
My heart aches and grieves
For the one I had to leave

Why can't I love both of you
Why is it wrong to be in love with two
It is so painful to choose
If I choose one
Two of us will loose..

Two of us will loose...

I added some cassette tape emulation to the track to give it a lo-fi sound. 

Friendships

Mystic Unity is a musical journey that crosses borders and shows the beauty in the connection between cultures. Through the fusion of Arabic sounds and Western harmonies, I want to celebrate the diversity and depth of two musical worlds and show what can happen when we are open to each other.

Mystic Unity invites us to embrace different perspectives and discover the unknown ... melodies and rhythms merge in a unique way. I look forward to taking you on this journey and hope it inspires you.

Oh Soleil

Lyrics

Oh soleil,
ne me quittes pas,
gardes moi avec toi,
après l'été,
le cœur envouté,

Oh soleil,
un œil sur la mer,
sans vent contraire,
sous un bleu lunaire,

tu rougit à la nuit,
posé sur une mer d'huile,
tes aurores boréales,
comme des messages subliminales,

Oh soleil,
tu demeures éternel,
perché là haut dans le ciel,
tu es la vie, tu es le miel,


Oh soleil,
pour nous les êtres éphémères,
tu es la lumière,
sur cette terre,

Oh soleil,
tu es mon réveil,
Oh soleil,
mon sommeil,


Oh soleil,
mon éternel, 
mon arc en ciel,
mon univers, 



Oh Soleil

This song began with David, who wrote it on the guitar, synth, and bass over a programmed beat he created. He and Josh met more than two months ago and decided to do a collaboration, based on mutual enjoyment of and respect for each other's music. Dave had this song pretty much fleshed out, although it was still a skeleton when he offered it to Josh, who, of course, got the rest of the Eclectic Collective involved. 

  Dave asked us all to compose our own parts for the song, so we all got to work right away doing that. We all realized that the first order of business would be to get a real beat on this, so Ken accomplished that task with some dynamic, Eastern inspired drums and percussion, which he plays throughout the song. JJ then stepped in and added his best eastern flute magic. Stephen was next with the perfect-vibe sitar you hear in the first two sections. 

  Josh came next to add his five-string fretless bass to the mix, augmenting David's high, staccato bass with his deep, low tone bass. Then, for the third section, where David's Gilmore-esque guitar solo resides, Josh drops out, allowing for Dave's awesome bass playing in that section. However, Josh does come in again towards the end, in the final section, too. Also, in that section, Tez dropped an augmented, harmonic, electric fire, complementary guitar part. Then, David's frequent collaborator and friend Ron added some well blended, ethereal synth to the first section, too.

  Once we had the instrumental parts pretty much laid down, we began to discuss getting a woman to sing on this, as David was inspired by The Great Gig in the Sky, by Pink Floyd, and we all agreed. Who we found to do it actually blew all of our minds. JJ, being familiar with her music, contacted Elpi first, and we were all lucky enough that she agreed to do it. Having heard Mediterranean music all her life in Greece, she tapped into what her husband said were her "ancient Greek roots," for her spectacular vocal performance. She finds all the modal notes and places them perfectly throughout her sections. 

  But before we were done, Mark came through with some really striking talking drum parts in the first two sections, too. Once we had everything in the can, David took over, both with some masterful editing and production, and with the balanced, dynamic mix. The mix was a formidable task, but he did it with considerable skill, also taking everyone's opinions into account, which is a talent in and of itself. When he was done with the mix, he turned it over to Stephen for the mastering, which the latter did to everyone's satisfaction, as always.

  This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with David, Elpi, and Ron, and we all hope it's the first of many, as we welcome them into the EC family. They all have some wonderful music on their pages, too, so do yourself a favor and check out all of them, as well. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

The Siege

The Siege : by David Marconi featuring Elpiverse, Ron Lewis & The Eclectic Collective

Music/Arrangement/Production/Vocals/Lyrics. Achazia. 

(Little tweak on it. I think bass was a little loud)

Special info: The audio file in the beginning is sounds from Neptune. NASA's Voyager 2 recorded electromagnetic emissions from its magnetosphere. These signals, when converted into sound, produce eerie, otherworldly noises, often described as haunting or ethereal.

Lyrics: Verse 1
I feel nothing.
I am standing alone, watching the dusk turn to dawn. Alone...

There was something—
I could have sworn I saw you there in the distance, alone...

So here I am...

(piano)

Chorus
Where you are now; are you underneath the skies?
Are you lost within misty shadows, holding back, or afraid to rise?

Verse 2
This strange silence keeps me awake;
All I see around me is a hollow, empty space.
My thoughts go deep, but they reach no one.
I feel the loss inside me, ever since you were gone.

Chorus
I wonder where you are now; are you underneath the skies?
Are you lost within misty shadows, holding back, or afraid to rise?

Verse 3
There was a moment.
I went back in time, traveled far in my dreams, with you.

But there was nothing.
You're fading away as time goes by, after all these years, I miss you.

(Solo: Choirs and guitars)

Chorus
I wonder where you are now; are you underneath the skies?
Lost within misty shadows, holding back, or afraid to rise?

(for some reason I cannot replace the file tonight. Stil work in progress)

I feel nothing

I am currently involved in various activities, from making songs to creating audio files for Pond5.  I focus on soundscape, ambient, and piano music. If you want to contact me, my email is achazia74@gmail.com. (Gonna rebrand myself again. I can't decide)

I am also trying to connect with people on twitter as I like that plattform for interaction: https://x.com/achaziamusic

Nearly all my songs are originals (see descriptions on the songs). I do everything myself, from composing and arranging to mixing.  I use Propellerhead's Reason.

I wish I had more time to make music, but my full-time job and daily duties require a lot of my time as well! :) For now, I am happy to do music as a hobby and have no further ambition than that.

My musical references and inspirations come from artists like Sigur Rós, Anathema, Clannad, Loreena McKennitt, and a few Norwegian artists. I also get inspired by books and movies with a fantasy/medieval feel, like Tolkien's work.
