Very beautiful piece, great style calm and significant..!

I'm writing every day, I'd would like to record it. Have to find a nice piano sound..

Yes, with Cubase 5.1 and  Halion piano in Cubase.

Thank you for listening to my composition. The art for the piece is by my brother Eoin(eandersonphotography on Instagram), and I can not think of a more fitting photograph to accompany the idea behind this composition. I also realized after writing this that I definitely took some inspiration from one of my favourite tracks by @ianaisling called "Galaxy", which you'll hear in the left hand motif.

Lately I've been reading studies on how prior information we have about composers, like autobiographical information, affects the emotions we perceive in their music. As such, if you would like your listening experience uninterrupted by my thoughts and perceptions of my own work feel free to stop reading here.

Recently I've spent more time than I would like to living in the future. I look out to those who have taken very different paths and I sometimes wonder where I would be if I had made different decisions, even though I feel I have made the right ones. I am fairly sure this is a common theme throughout adulthood.
As for the title, sometimes I imagine following my own path is like stumbling through a forest in the dark, with nothing but a meagre flashlight guiding the way--there are many uncertainties as our paths diverge from more well-trodden ones. 

But should I remember to look up, I'll notice the glorious night sky above me, right where I am.

Nightlight

Hi, I write soundtrack-esque piano music and study music cognition.

 I have always gravitated to the piano when composing as it offers a wonderful outlet for creativity and introspection.  Beyond composition, I study music's expressive power to convey emotion.

I hope you like what you hear!
