These short tracks were written for my insanely talented friend Greg Edwards during his Imaginarium Project [https://superrare.com/gregcicle]

My task was to write 6x 30 second pieces of music that would accompany Greg's artwork. 

I decided to write a three-minute piece that could be divided into six 30-second sections (each capable of looping). The piece is structured in arch form (ABCCBA) but with significant variations in the repeated sections.

Key amongst the material is the ‘Imaginarium Theme’ that is heard in its entirety in chapter 1 and then transformed and fragmented throughout the other chapters culminating in a near-exact repetition in chapter 6, but with subtle changes to aid musical resolution.

07. Beauty and the Beast

The Mystic Way – A Journey Through the Dao

This piano solo is inspired by the profound wisdom of Daoism, capturing the essence of the ineffable and eternal. Originally written with lyrics drawn from ancient philosophy, the melody now speaks through the purity of the piano, conveying the depth of the Dao without the need for words.

Like a coin with only one side, true understanding transcends definitions. The Dao cannot be spoken, nor can it be named—yet it flows through all things, giving rise to existence and shaping the universe. This piece invites the listener into a space of contemplation, where the seen and unseen intertwine, where mystery deepens with every note, and where the path to understanding lies beyond mere perception.

Let this music be your gateway to serenity, an echo of the eternal harmony that connects all things.
