such a great understanding of music Brian - wonderful

Underneath the sorry skies
There are still things to find
That will make you smile
That will make you smile

In the snakepit of my mind
Just tryin' to survive
There's always a way out
There's always a way out

Is this the deepest I can dive, the highest I can fly?
We’re all bleeding but for what it’s worth
We’re tryin’, we’re still trying

There’s still hope in this world
Decent people as good as good their word
As good as their word, as good as their word

Is this the deepest I can dive, the highest I can fly?
We’re all bleeding but for what it’s worth
We’re tryin’, we’re still trying
Underneath the sorry skies
There’s still things to find
Is this the highest I can fly?
Is this the deepest I can dive?

Underneath the Sorry Skies

Many thanks to the wonderful Sander - Wane of Summer - for once again agreeing to a collaboration. His stunning original composition: https://soundcloud.com/wane-of-summer/ephemeral-echoes

this miraculous planet is all that matters - how much time have we got?

I look at you . .

swaying like a baby  /   learning to walk
mesmerised by the light  /  as it falls between the leaves  /   seeing the world 
unfold around me  /   all I needed  /   was there  

 
clouds     float in skies     carry light      through the trees
they lift my heart     like that look     in your eyes     
in a world that's simply free

now this chaos     where does it lead us?     what are we to do?
sometimes     it feels like a waste of time
but then, my love     I look at you     I look at you 

with so much hatred     so much greed
where is the love     the love we need?

so from these broken shores     we set forth      into rising seas
how far to that clean, fair world     where we'll live in peace?

this miraculous planet     is all that matters     how much time have we got?
will we be able   to save ourselves?     maybe, baby     
maybe not

sometimes    it feels like    a waste of time     
and I just don't know    what to do
sometimes it feels like    a waste of time
but then, my love, I look at you         I look at you . .

pour toi, bébé

AS THE GALE PASSES

A mash up of both All I need songs from the great bands Radiohead & Air

I want to develop it longer and try and marry the full lyrics from both songs so hopefully its 7 minutes of cool over the next couple of days 


This track is not monetised


Radiohead are my favourite band of all time. They are the bar in a sense although I'm careful to not encroach their originalty I have too much respect for them. That said I love playing and absorbing their abilities as much as I can. I guess when you are conscious of the difference between trying to absorb someone's skill and make your version of it that's tastefully different to trying to sound like them and I guess this inspiration happens all of us all the time which is really cool. Again it should be celebrated and discussed more now in my view so we can lay naked for everybody how musical artists inspire each other without plagarising eachother like AI plagiarised all our art


Air were a huge part of my youth and Moon Safari went through many periods of being album number #1 that I looped.

Both fabulous artists and I am so greatful to have had and have their music 🎶

All I Need (Air & Radiohead medley cover)

Psycho Vampires

A Bog of Lotus Flowers

Spanish influenced piano solo with ornamented melody evoking feelings of longing

A Ti

Legacy Broken is a cinematic orchestral concept album that explores the psychological weight of legacy, family, and emotional silence. Blending restrained elegance with hypnotic minimalism, each track unfolds like a room in a haunted memory palace—echoes of conversations, legal inheritances, betrayals, and unresolved grief.

Muted strings, fractured piano motifs, trembling horns, and emotionally conflicted harmonic structures form a sonic language of unspoken tension and decaying tradition. The arrangements resist resolution, allowing silence, repetition, and space to carry as much meaning as melody.

This album is not just a score — it’s a portrait of inheritance, power, and the long shadows of memory. The finale song "Inheritance of Silence" concludes with a vocalized song about empty love, wealth and social responsibility. 

1. Ghostly Reflections

Pezhman Mosleh – Whispers for Peace and Love
You can listen “Limitless”: 

"Limitless" is dedicated to Krzystof Kieslowski and attracted so many attentions from many countries including France and Poland, and the site of Kieslowski Art and Polish music information center in Poland broadcasted it and it is believed that the music of Mosleh is close to Priesner’s.
(It is suggested to listen to this piece in dim light like the end of sunset.)

According to 1inmusic.com: 
Pezhman Mosleh 
The cinematographic melancholy of Chopin has inspired many, not least your humble host. So it was a definite pleasure to hear it in the original pieces by international Iranian composer Pezman Mosley. Mosley is a Professor of cinema philosophy and aesthetic and a scholar in music history who has humanity and philosophical concerns. He is a pioneer in Iranian neo romanticism, his compositions also reminiscent of the works of another composer, Beethoven, in this beautiful and heartfelt piano piece, Snow. 
Nina Bahri has performed this piece by piano.

Pezhman Mosleh – Whispers for Peace and Love
This sound and many such beautiful ones are gathered in a beautiful and peaceful compilation entitled “Whispers for Peace and Love”, the fruit of the recent years he has spent in silence and solitude, studying and searching. The pieces in this album are portrayed and approach film music. Although many of the songs are instrumentals, there is also the occasional singing which is rendered by the very voice of the musician.
The album includes 8 pieces; “Snow”, “Limitless”, “Good remembrance”, “Loneliness at night”, “life”, “Martyr”, “Nameless”, “Dance of wind”.

Pezhman Mosleh – notable Mandela song
He is the first Iranian artist who has composed and sang a song for Mandela which was dedicated to the South African President and activist when he was alive. This notable song was conveyed to Mr. Mandela and Nelson Mandela Foundation who both expressed their appreciation of the work of an author who means to touch the heart of the world. The heartfelt composition is orchestrated in a way and also includes extracts of Mandela’s speech giving the full thing an anthemic strength with a mixture of authentism and emotion. The song has seen broadcast in South Africa on their South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC), in the UK via the beautiful and humanity program of Wandsworth radio and on Amazing radio.

Pezhman Mosleh – Other works
Mosley was also mentioned in New York, NY (Top40 Charts) and Record Setter (World Records). These noted that: “the youngest soloist-vocalist of the world, Ava Sadeghipour is student of the International Iranian Musician, Professor Pezhman Mosleh who is a stylist music teacher and his method is teaching to the children of 2/5-6 years old and he is the only teacher who has a new method for teaching to 2 years old children, so these children are able to play and sing simultaneously in different concert halls at the age of 4 before so many audience.”
The artist’s relaxing musical works, including the album featured “Whispers for peace and love”, have attracted attention of artists, philosophy professors, psychologists, critics, Iran and abroad press and media such as USA, South Africa, Canada, Nigeria, Russia, Australia, UK, Italy, Switzerland, Sweden, Poland, Netherlands, Denmark, Japan, China, Turkey, Vietnam, India and further.
This lyric and sound embed encpasulate the spirit of the Mandela song and the aspirations of : “Mandela, My eternal man… The scent of your breath, The scent of freedom”
