Selene, the goddess of the moon 
Mercurial and hewn 
From ashen rays of afterglow 

High, presiding through the night 
Her veil of silver light 
Cascading over all we know 

Deep in my subconciousness 
Arcadia survives 

In the dismal days of 
Emptiness 
We try to turn the tide 

Before my eyes 
The truth in a strange disguise 
So I ran and I ran 
But the future had a plan 
To catch me out 

If you attune 
To the phasing of the moon 
Like chasing a ghost 
From the pillar to the post 
It wears you down 

Turn the tide 
By leaving the past behind 
Buried in the sands of time 

So in the end 
The phasing wins again 
Come the dark, come the dawn 
Come the chasm of the morn 
It wears you down 

Turn the tide 
By leaving the past behind 
Buried in the sands of time

Waiting for your Sunshine / Standing in the Moonlight / Cecilia, Paploviante & Lillithe

Under A Sun Called Hope

If gravity is the only thing
That keeps you from leaving me
You’ve got to find your wings
And learn to fly

I’ll find comfort in these things
The things you have taught me
And search for forgiveness
In what you leave behind

So leave me your courage
Your strength and your wisdom
This precious sorrow
These tender tears

The strength of a lion
The love of a lamb
I feel it around me
All through the years

There’s so much that I regret
Those unkind words I said
Were born from frustration
And not from my heart

I know there will be peace
The sadness will be released
I’ll put back together
What’s torn all apart

Life is a mystery
Who knows what the world will bring
But I know you’re beside
When I’m ready to start

Gravity

Reworked version of Break Out Of This Cage with Norbert Meyer (N.o.b.S) - what an incredible guitar track he came up with. A lot of iteration on the levels and production of this track before coming up with this final mix. Norbert also took care of the mastering.

BREAK OUT OF THIS CAGE

Break out of this cage
Why can’t I hold on to the bars
Is it all in my mind
The weight on my shoulders 

Better than that 
More than that
You deserve so much more
So much better than that

Round and round and round…..

Up and down
Round and round
Off the ground
I don’t want to hear a sound
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh….

Break out of this cage
Break out of this cage

Break out of this cage
Why can’t I hold on to the bars
Is it all in my mind
The weight on my shoulders 

Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh…..

Round and round and round…..

My future
Your future
Our future
It’s all in the past
It’s all in the past
Get off of this circular path

Break out of this cage
Break out of this cage  

Break out of this cage
Why can’t I hold on to the bars

A New Day

The Art of Hoquet - D'Amore
November 2020
Duration: 2:45
Cover Art: John-Marc Ventimiglia

Based on the 14th century 2 part Ballade, Je ne cuit pas, by Guillaume de Machaut.  
The composition is written in a contemporary style using the technique of hoquet.

The term "hoquet" is a French word (in Old French also hocquet, hoket, or ocquet) meaning "a shock, sudden interruption, hitch, or hiccup".  Although the term is in reference to the secular music of the 13th and 14th centuries in France, the technique, under other names, could be heard in different types of music across the world as early as the 11th century.  Hoquet is the rhythmic linear technique using the alternation of notes, pitches, or chords.  In medieval practice of hocket, a single melody is shared between two (or occasionally more) voices or instruments such that alternately one voice sounds while the other rests.  Hoquet is also used in Indonesian Gamelan music, African music, Classical music, Jazz and popular music.

For strings, woodwinds, harp, bandura, celeste, virtual instruments and percussion
