Somos 
Unha area
Nun mar de recordos
Deixando ir o tempo marchar por nos

Estragando 
As nosas almas
Olvidadas 
Nas rompentes das nosas vidas

Somos 
Pequenos heroes
Con barro en lugar de pes
E a area metida no noso ser

Fundimonos 
Cada vez
Ainda que creemos poder
Salvarnos e volver florecer

Os heroes 
Verdadeiros
Non levan nunca
Simbolos no peito

Un corazon 
De seda e ferro
Alumea
Sempre o seu sendeiro 

Somos 
Pequenos heroes
Con barro en lugar de pes
E area metida no noso ser

Fundimonos 
Cada vez
Ainda que creemos poder
Salvarnos e volver florecer

E ahora
Que nos levan
Sinto a culpa
Cravada como unha agulla

Somos 
Pequenos heroes
Con barro en lugar de pes
E area metida no noso ser

Fundimonos 
Cada vez
Ainda que creemos poder
Salvarnos e volver florecer

Lyrics (English)

We are
A sand
In a sea of memories
Letting time march over us

Unravelling
Our souls
Forgotten
In the breakers of our lives

We are
Little heroes
With mud instead of feet
And sand stuck in our being

We sink
Each time
Even though we think we can
Save us and make us bloom again

The heroes
True
Never carry
Symbols on the chest

A heart
Of silk and iron
Illuminates
Always its path

We are
Little heroes
With mud instead of feet
And sand stuck in our being

We sink
Each time
Even though we think we can
Save us and make us bloom again

And now
That they take us away
I feel the guilt
Stuck like a needle

We are
Little heroes
With mud instead of feet
And sand stuck in our being

We sink
Each time
Even though we think we can
Save us and make us bloom again

We are
Little heroes
With mud instead of feet
And sand stuck in our being

We sink
Each time
Even though we think we can
Save us and make us bloom again

Pequenos Heroes

Rafah camp, established in 1949, is located in the south of Gaza, near the Egyptian border. In the year after Rafah camp was created, thousands of refugees moved from the camp to a nearby housing project at Tel El-Sultan, making the camp almost indistinguishable from the adjacent city.

Originally home to 41,000 refugees who had fled from the hostilities of the 1948 war, Rafah is now home to more than 104,000 refugees. High population density is a major problem, with people living in crowded shelters along extremely narrow streets.


The blockade on Gaza has made life more difficult for many refugees in the camp. However, since the “adjustment” to the blockade, Gaza witnessed a construction boom due to the illegal materials entering Gaza through the tunnels with Egypt enriching some people in the camp.

However, unemployment levels remain very high, leaving a staggering proportion of the population dependent on UNRWA’s food and cash assistance. Basic hygiene is also of great concern in the camp, where 90 per cent of the water is unfit for human consumption.

BedouinDrone - Rafah

SLEEP RESEARCH FACILITY / LLYN Y CWN 'Sargo / Posidonia' Ltd LP / CD.

The ultimate deep listening experience from two masters of dark ambient. A slow descent into the blackened watery abyss, where light cannot reach.

The first release from Sleep Research Facility since 2012's "Stealth" (Cold Spring) is inspired by the deep sea ocean floor. The Canadian-based composer explores notions of awareness and perception in the sub/unconscious listener. Focusing primarily on sound bereft of rhythm based energies, SRF provides an environments wherein the music adds texture to the silence. Using form without structure and concentrating on space as opposed to narrative, SRF entertains the idea that music can reside in the very fabric of sound itself. The brand new material here was created specifically for this split release.

Taking inspiration from the beautiful, but often harsh landscapes and environments of his home on Anglesey, North Wales, Llyn Y Cwn has built on the nautical theme of "Du Y Moroedd" (Cold Spring). These tracks are based on field recordings relating to the ocean, and could be seen as a companion piece to the album. 'Dale Dawn' features a recording of the dawn chorus made from the floating pontoon at Dale, Pembrokeshire. 'Pebble' includes the sound of waves crashing on a Dorset cobble beach, thousands of rocks colliding in chorus. 'Doppler Current Profiler' is based on the sound of an ADCP, an acoustic sonar instrument used to measure water currents - a 600Khz ping slowed to a heartbeat. 

Limited Edition LP on audiophile black vinyl for best sound presentation. CD in mini-LP sleeve, replicating the vinyl design. The artwork features a separate front cover design with individual art for each side, making this a true split release.

Crime contre la Pachamama - Crime against Pachamama

Recording from Berlin Konzerthaus 31.08.2016

Performed by Orchestra of Estonian Academy of Music and Theater, conducted by Paul Mägi.

Based on a single shape, the piece consists of two different natural harmonic rows ( first part following the natural harmonics available on cello strings and second part being a combination of harmonics of other string instruments). Every natural string harmonic has its unique character, depending on the string it is produced on. Touching the string lightly can produce icy high tones or warm, flute like, lower resonances. It is an attempt to bring out the poetry of the microtonal landscape of these particular rows and observe the constant change of tone combinations that mostly occur only once. Other instruments extend the harmonies and give breathe to the structure. To add immediacy, some freedom to make intuitive choices is given to the musicians. While studying the material, I had a picture stuck in my mind as making one of the gigantic wind driven and self moving sculptures of the dutch artist Theo Jansen, hoping that if I get the calculations right, the piece will also catch a wind and reveal something in the sound, that I was unaware of.

Mechanics Of Flying (2016)

"The Colour of Water" for solo saxophone(s) (soprano/alto/baritone) and chamber orchestra commissioned by the Saxophonia festival (LV) and Klaipėda Music Spring (LT) 


"I expected to find complete darkness down below but at some point, much to my surprise, the ocean floor appeared transparent and radiant". Jacques Piccard, Swiss oceanographer and engineer

"..e il naufragar m'è dolce in questo mare". Giacomo Leopardi (..and sinking in this sea is sweet to me)

“The Colour of Water” is the 3rd part of my Latvian trilogy together with “Elongation of Nights” (2009) for string orchestra and “Observation of Clouds” (2012) for voices, winds and strings, continuing to explore some discoveries made in the first two parts and also dedicated to Riga Sinfonieta, Maestro Normunds Šnē and the Lithuanian saxophone player Arvydas Kazlauskas residing in Latvia.

The piece is an attempt to poetically reflect on the illusory colour of water that doesn’t actually exist, trying to give answers through musical metaphors of reflection and generating the musical material while applying mirror principles which predetermine both macro and micro levels. The solo part is based on the obsessively oscillating pendulum of low and high notes gradually increasing the distance between them. As a consequence, the expanding space between the opposite poles is being filled in with the orchestral “liquid” of changing timbre/harmony colours until this symbolic container becomes inevitably overfilled.

The strings are placed on the stage in a way to create the sound moving in an hypnotic circle/vortex which unites the swinging opposite poles of the solo part, whilst the soloist is being surrounded by the rising waves and submerged deeper and deeper down where the breathing stops and the tension of the polarity is released.
