You are a brilliant composer and pianist !! I love this music indeed !!

love the melancholy feel....  it seems very intimate, and yet grand and ethereal at the same time...

A few weeks ago as I was soon expecting my first child, my father wrote me a note saying that his one wish was that I would take what he taught me as a father, and echo that even further to my son- to be an even "better" father than he was. It took me aback wondering how I could possibly be a better parent than he was, though he did have a point: The hope is to take everything we learned from our upbringing and expand upon that to ensure each generation progresses just a little bit further. 

I wrote this as I reflected on that sentiment and for the wild adventure that was soon to come. So for my Piano Day 2021 contribution, this one is for my Padre.

So it turns out I only went and wrote and recorded an album on my recent visit to California (I was there for much more important non-musical reasons).
The place and the company are very inspiring. 

The album, entitled The Village, will be released on double CD and download in December. Until then, you'll have to make do with this part of this track and the ridiculous photograph I actually took of the actual sunset. We don't get sunsets quite like that in Manchester!

"Dreams" is part of Recollections Vol. 2 released by Sonder House as part of Piano Day 2019.

Dreams

As most of the readers of Headphone Commute are musicians in their own right, they should already be familiar with the Berlin-based Martyn Heyne, who should be known to them as the owner of Lichte Studio, in which so many experimental, ambient, and modern classical albums have been recorded, mixed, mastered, and produced. These include some of the releases by Aukai, Tambour, Kelly James Wyse, Ceeys, Shida Shahabi, Tom Adams, Luke Howard, and Hecq, among the many others. But, of course, since I'm running this track premiere today, Heyne is also an outstanding composer, first appearing on my radar (and indeed these pages) with his 2017 release, Electric Intervals on 7k!. What may be surprising among all of this is that Heyne is also a fantastic guitar player, showcasing his favorite instrument on the upcoming solo album, titled Open Lines. Well, actually, he plays more than one instrument on the album. Among his performance on the electric, acoustic, 12-string, and classical guitar, Rhodes, bass, and piano, there's also the kalimba, bongos, and bells! Not to mention the appearance of the wonderful Anne Mülle on the cello on a couple of tracks, and the Finnish percussionist, Tatu Rönkkö on the drums, with whom Heyne has played live as Efterklang. The album traverses the boundaries of contemporary classical, krautrock, slow-shuffling jazz, and everything in between. The heart of the release, touching upon all of the above-mentioned aesthetics, and my favorite piece as well, is a track titled "Neuwerk." And that is precisely why I am happy to share it with you today.
