A tune made for my mother, when she passed away

Rest in peace mom

Beyond Love

How Long Does It Take – written by Andrea Brennan – is a song that is especially close to my heart. When I first read the lyrics, I was instantly touched and deeply inspired. I’m incredibly grateful that Andrea entrusted me with this beautiful piece. 
Dear Andrea, once again, thank you so much for your trust. It was a true joy and an honor to set your words to music.

How Long Does It Take


Love is the captor I welcomed to find
But now that you're gone, how my heart cries
I'm surviving on memories replayed in my mind

Our home now a house, the warmth faded and gone
Death is the poison nightmares feed upon
And it's cold as Hell, yet a fire burns on

How long does it take to heal this broken heart
Piece together my world that has fallen apart
To feel once more like I did before
How long does it take to heal this broken heart

Sweet remnants of you everywhere that I look
Slippers by the bed, pink robe on a hook
Reading glasses perched on your unfinished book

Things can't dry my tears and they can't hold me tight
Things cannot rock me gently through the night
And things cannot whisper everything will be alright


How long does it take to heal this broken heart
Piece together my world that has fallen apart
To feel once more like I did before
How long does it take to heal this broken heart

How Long Does It Take

Dreaming in Colour

The two await the unstruck sound
unconfronted.
Apart and stainless.
Impossible, yet apparent and whole.
Indestructible upon leaving
to the form between births
where the winds of the body dissolve
and enter the red and white drop.

The quartz hums in it's place
on the shelf
reflecting the roses.
Do not let the dust fall there.

There is a light on for you
where the solar plexus pulses
awaiting your radiating branches
and the evening redness on your skin.

Words by Riley Robinson

Anahata (Piano and Vocal Only)

Her Echo is a song about memory, loss, and what remains in the stillness.
Soft piano meets a female voice filled with sorrow, depth, and fragile beauty.

All melodies, vocal phrasing, dynamics, and lyrics were fully composed and written by me.
All other instruments were either recorded manually or arranged using high-quality VSTs – including libraries from EastWest, Native Instruments, Kontakt, Opus, and Komplete.
This is 100% my own musical vision – handcrafted, emotional, and real.

🕯️ Lyrics:

Shadows fall where light once stayed,
Whispers echo dreams we made.
Time moves on, but I remain,
Holding on through silent pain.

I remember… all we were,
In the stillness, in the blur.
Every heartbeat, every sigh,
Lives in me though you’re not by my side.

Leaves still dance where we would stand,
Traces fading in the sand.
I reach out, but you're not near,
Only silence answers here.

I remember… all we were,
In the stillness, in the blur.
Every heartbeat, every sigh,
Lives in me though you’re not by my side.

Reminiscence in my soul,
You’re the part that made me whole...
**The voice was realized using ACE Studio.

🕯️ Songtext:

Schatten fallen, wo einst Licht verweilte,
Flüstern tragen Träume, die wir teilten.
Die Zeit vergeht, doch ich bleib’ besteh’n,
Halte fest – in stillem Schmerz vergeh’n.

Ich erinn’re mich… an unser Sein,
In der Stille, mittendrin, allein.
Jeder Herzschlag, jeder Seufzer –
lebt in mir, auch wenn du nicht mehr bei mir bist.

Blätter tanzen, wo wir einst gestanden,
Spuren, die im Sand bald verschwanden.
Ich greif nach dir – doch du bist fern,
Nur das Schweigen bleibt mir noch so gern.

Ich erinn’re mich… an unser Sein,
In der Stille, mittendrin, allein.
Jeder Herzschlag, jeder Seufzer –
lebt in mir, auch wenn du nicht mehr bei mir bist.

Erinnerung – tief in meiner Seele,
Du warst der Teil, der mich einst ganz machte...

Lyrics (by Khan)

ON JULY

We met on July
We don’t know music come from and why
I can hear the storm is coming down down down
We don’t see but we see eye to eye
We can hear muses are coming down down down
We don’t see but we’re brotherhood

I saw fireworks tonight alone
I got the Big echo tonight and moon
I saw fireworks bring me to them
I feel paradise is here for me.

On July (Khan, Tot & Tea R. Sea)

The Journey of Fates is a heartfelt gospel anthem of redemption, surrender, and divine strength. Born from pain and transformed by faith, the song tells a story of walking through darkness and discovering light through Yeshua’s love. With powerful vocals, tender scripture reading, and a blend of hope and worship, Felicia Marie Tukole invites listeners into a journey of faith — where every tear becomes testimony and every scar becomes praise.

The journey of faith.

Crazy Love

This is an album about possibility — and what it costs to finally choose.
Decoherence follows the long arc from childhood superposition (when every future feels open) through the quiet collapses of adulthood: love, loss, commitment, parenthood, identity, and the versions of yourself you leave behind.

Across sixteen tracks — from the shimmering youth of Superposition to the painful endings of Collapse #2, through the parallel-universe fragments of the interludes, and into the quiet clarity of Coherence — the album maps the emotional physics of a life taking shape.

It’s a soundtrack for anyone who has ever been told they could do anything, struggled to choose something, lived too long in open tabs, feared commitment, chased potential, or held on to unrealised futures long after they faded.

Blending post-folk electronica, glitch-soul, double bass, analog warmth, and intimate vocal layers, Decoherence sits between science and soul — a concept album about learning to land.
About collapsing the wave on purpose.
About the one life you choose when the moment comes.

COHERENCE

Hi, I’m Axel.
After a longer musical hibernation, I started making music again about three years ago – and honestly, it feels amazing! I’ve been hanging around on SoundCloud for about two years now, and I’m constantly blown away by the creativity, variety, and real talent to be found here.

Music is just a hobby for me – which is exactly why I have zero ambitions to make money with it. I’m here simply because it’s fun. So, a small request: Dear annoying promoters with your shady offers – please save us both the trouble, I’m not your guy. I’m not chasing follower counts, click records, or streaming millions. Sure, I’m happy when people listen – but what I value most is connecting with a few honest musicians who feel the same way I do. Quality over quantity, you know?

I play keyboards and have already had the pleasure of creating songs together with some wonderful musicians I met right here on SoundCloud – something I’d love to keep doing. For me, collaboration and exchange are a huge part of what makes music so exciting.

Tech corner, anyone? All my tracks are produced in Cubase 13 Pro. Over time, more and more VST instruments have snuck into my setup – from Spitfire and Native Instruments to Spectrasonics and more. My go-to drum sounds usually come from Toontrack, which have become the rhythmic backbone of many of my tracks. I’ll admit it: I’ve caught a bit of a collecting bug here. Sadly, it’s eating both my wallet and my hard drive space. Will it ever stop? Probably not. 🙄

Style-wise, I love exploring different genres with no limits. For me, the goal is simple: have fun, stay inspired, and keep growing creatively. And every time I stumble upon a track here on SoundCloud that really moves me – the kind of song you’d probably never hear on the radio – it feels like discovering a hidden treasure.

I’m really glad you found my channel – and I hope my music brings you as much joy as it brings me when I create it.
