This opener gave me chills. But really the whole piece is amazing.

Truly just snatches my attention instantly with such powerful suspense and an awesome chilling combination of violin and drum tracks. Extremely well put together, short, sweet and magnificent! :)

way to reach out and 'grab the attention of the listener'!  keep expanding your 'baselines'...   write on!!!

Spécial thanks to Ashendreams for her a cappella...

SIGUEME. Feat Ashesndreams.

A Moment in Time

No dicen nada.

Tremenda balacera hubo en un barrio.
No se si me da el pico pa contarlo.
Hoy dos gorriones miran para arriba
y se ha reunido a tanta comitiva.

Cuendo pasé ya todos lo sabían.
Caídos dos, ninguno se movía.
Al fierro lo encontraron en el carro.
Ya listo pa tirar algun petardo.

Hoy, quedó un extraño sabor,
no dice nada la radio,
tampoco los diarios, no hay fotos.

Hoy, quedó un extraño sabor.
No dice nada la televisión, ahí tampoco veo notas.
No dicen nada

Sus caras enterradas en el barro.
Algunos dicen que fueron sicarios.
Y otros que  estos pibes ya tenían
alguna vaina con la policia.

Los chicos van llenando sus agujeros.
Con goles en el arco del potrero.
Y saben que la muerte es una espina,
que vive a cada vuelta de la esquina.

Hoy, quedó un extraño sabor,
no dice nada la radio,
tampoco los diarios, no hay fotos.

Hoy, quedó un extraño sabor.
No dice nada la televisión, ahí tampoco veo notas.
No dicen nada.

Open your heart

le recueil "Sources du Vent" de Pierre Reverdy est pour moi un des sommets de la poésie française contemporaine. On y trouve un équilibre insoupçonné entre le sensible et l'intelligible, le saisissable et l'insaisissable, le dicible et l'indicible, bref l'essence même de la poésie. Chaque rime est en soi une idée esthétique, comme dans "Lueurs des crépuscules", qui doit bien être le troisième ou quatrième poème pour lequel j'ai tenté une mise en musique.
PAROLES
LUEURS DES CREPUSCULES

Les vagues du matin à l’assaut des lucarnes
Le soleil écumant s’éclabousse au milieu
Le parterre est rempli de fleurs gonflées de larmes
Un bruit dans les allées inquiète le passant
 Tout s’arrête un moment
 Tout brille dans les branches
Et le spectacle change au moindre mouvement
Sur une vieille toile des lambeaux de mémoire 
Ont changé l’illusion mouvante de la nuit
Et rehaussant toujours l’or de ses accessoires
Le rêve suspendu trop haut déjà flétri
Au plafond s’attardait un doux son de guitare
Avec des mots précis et incompréhensibles
Le piège des yeux clairs et des cœurs trop sensibles
Où tous les signes bleus du jour sont restés pris
Heureusement guettant aux plis de la portière
Un air plus dur s’est mis à dissiper l’oubli
Le temps de s’en aller plus loin
 Mais toujours dans la même ville
Et sur le chemin qui descend
Les ombres de mauvaise mine
Des soirs où il fait mauvais temps
 Quand vers le fond du ciel la nuit froide décline
Quand les nuages bas volent sans discipline

 Pierre Reverdy

LYRICS
GLIMMER OF TWILIGHT

The morning waves attack the skylights
The foaming sun splashes in the middle
The bed is filled with flowers swollen with tears
A noise in the alleys worries the passer-by
 Everything stops for a while
 Everything shines in the branches
And the show changes at the slightest movement
On an old canvas, shreds of memory 
Have changed the moving illusion of the night
And always enhancing the gold of his accessories
The dream suspended too high, already withered
On the ceiling lingered a soft guitar sound
With precise and incomprehensible words
The trap of clear eyes and overly sensitive hearts
Where all the blue signs of the day remained caught
Fortunately watching for the folds of the door
A harsher air began to dispel the oblivion
Time to go further
 But still in the same city
And on the path down
Shadows of ill-looking
Evenings when the weather is bad
 When towards the bottom of the sky the cold night declines
When low clouds fly without discipline

 Pierre Reverdy

Ever since hearing the Armenian Duduk (a double reed instrument) in Narnia and Dune, I've wanted to include it in one of my pieces. This project with Dave gave me a perfect time for a slower piece of music set around a night at an oasis. We didn't want it to be just that, so we did decide to add in a dance section too in the middle of the piece. 

I had the idea of a traveller arriving at an oasis as the sun falls and pouring himself a cup of water.  Then after watching a dance there is the sound of two cups being filled and a female laugh, once again to the sultry sound of the Duduk and Strings. 

It is Ethno Prog though, so Dave got to work creating synthesiser parts as part of the dance section. I added in various rhythmic elements including Darbuka, Riq, Cymbals, Clapping and a Vocal part. I wanted to keep an eastern feel so I decided to use the Oud to add quasi bass guitar lines to the dance section of the piece. 

I feel all the disparate elements came together very well in the end and it drops the listener into the moment.

A Night at the Oasis - in collaboration with D Zeitlin

What is your enduring dream? That treasured goal that requires a deep well of resilience and the courage to try something over and over again? The path to reaching an enduring dream is generally not straightforward; instead, it meanders, taking us to unknown and unexpected places while providing countless "life lessons" as we navigate a long, winding road. It's comforting to know that every stumble and each "recalibration" along the way brings us closer to our dreams, strengthening our resolve and making the eventual success more meaningful.

“An Enduring Dream” contains two recurring themes: the first represents the process of pursuing a dream repeatedly, while the second symbolizes the “recalibration” and courage to keep moving forward. The music concludes with a sense of continued movement, further along the path and closer to the dream.

Kintsugi is an art form that embodies the philosophy of wabi-sabi which values the beauty of imperfection and transience. Kintsugi also serves as a metaphor for embracing our flaws and imperfections in life seeing them as a source of strength and beauty and finding resilience in the face of adversity.

What the hell are you going to do?
This is your life
The one to decide is you!

Chorus x 2:
Live it well, don't make a fool of yourself
Your decision will affect your day
Imagine you have wings, fly through the rain
Keep it honest and real along the way...

Imagine you have wings, fly through the storm
Keep it honest and real along the way..

Music is a great unifier.  Through music, we bridge the gap between race, gender, age, etc., to raise our unified voice, the voice of the human race.  I am thankful for making friends from around the world through music, and I thank these friends for embracing me as I am.  We can't allow people to suffer oppression based on differences.  Instead, we should leverage our differences to make the world stronger and better, and build each other up instead of tearing each other down.  We are one people.  Love, not hate, is the answer.

Thanks for stopping by my page!  I compose music for all types of media in multiple genres, but favor cinematic orchestral or orchestral-synth hybrids with a strong melody.  I'm currently furthering my skills at Berklee College of Music Online, scored the end credits for the Indie film short "Sides," have music available in various film libraries, and have won awards in several film scoring contests, most notably the "Emerging Composer Diversity Award for Outstanding Achievement in Music Composition" in the Marvin Hamlisch Film Scoring Competition 2018.  You can contact me via Soundcloud or my website listed below if you have need of some custom original or sync music from my library.  Happy listening!
