Nu Jazz chill music with a throbbing beat at varying tempos. I used the same "tick-tock" synth from tracks on my Time Machine EP.

Happy Samhain! 🔥

Hour Glass is about time ⏳

An original composition, no AI, digital music created MIDI to DAW by a human

HOUR GLASS
I have an hour glass in my mind 
It measures life in bits of time 
Like TikTok videos
Showing how the sand flows 
All in a trickle 
Dancing Wu-Li masters remind
The consequence of time 

While the force of gravity 
can bring me to my knees 
The hour glass remains to hold
Above and below 
Before and behind 
Carry me forever
In the consequence of time

Hour Glass

"The instrumental for ‘Blame’ was recorded when I was making ‘While I’m Distracted’. It was just a big jam but it had this irresistible quality to it, especially Sam’s groove. I couldn’t find my way back into the song until recently when I needed a vessel to express some emotions I had been bottling up."

London-based New Zealander Arjuna Oakes is back with new single ‘Blame’, a hypnotic groove steeped in Latin-boogie rhythms and the open-hearted soul-jazz energy that’s quickly becoming his signature.

Blame

Arjuna Oakes - Blame

Cloud my mind

Quiet Like This

[Verse 1]
Late night lights low
you’re close enough to breathe in
something silent pulls me near—
not force just a gentle spin

Sofa cushions sink a little
your shoulder leans toward mine
every second feels suspended
soft and warm like vintage wine

[Pre-Chorus]
No questions asked
no reason to explain
your presence speaks
in ways lips can’t blame

[Chorus]
I’ve never known quiet like this—
where silence feels like a kiss
two hearts beating close in time
no rush no fear just your hand near mine
we don’t say a word yet somehow we exist
in harmony—
I’ve never known quiet like this

[Verse 2]
Your eyes trace mine slowly
like you’re reading a favorite page
soft breaths softer looks
comfort only time can stage

I feel the night surround us
the city fading into air
nothing here to break the moment—
just your calm just your care

[Pre-Chorus]
No questions asked
no reason to pretend
you sit with me
and it feels like an invitation I’d send

[Chorus]
I’ve never known quiet like this—
where silence feels like a kiss
two hearts beating close in time
no rush no fear just your hand near mine
we don’t say a word yet somehow we exist
in harmony—
I’ve never known quiet like this

[Bridge]
Maybe love doesn’t need a speech
maybe it lives right here—
in the gentle way you breathe
in the peace when you’re near

[Final Chorus]
I’ve never known quiet like this—
a night I never want to miss
no noise no light just you and me
two souls sitting in unity
we don’t say a word yet somehow we exist—
and I’ve never known quiet
quite like this
