Name: Hymn to the Mountains by Colin Stevens in The First Glimpse of Spring: May 2nd, 2018
Duration: 11 min 32 s
Description: Watching the Austrian Grand Prix, I was struck by how pretty the harmony was in the Austrian National Anthem. Here I've added an intro and stretched out that work into an ambient drone, in the Stevens style.

A lovely serene piece Colin, very nice work =]

In my neck of the woods, the weather has been fairly dismal the last several months. Spring was supposed to come in April, but winter was extended well into last week. Today is the first that it is not only beautiful outside, but also 80 degrees. Here then is a playlist of chilled out tunes I've been enjoying lately from various artists, as I say goodbye to the last of winter, and hello to the forthcoming summer sunshine.

The First Glimpse of Spring: May 2nd, 2018

Hey Mr. Blues
Once I stumbled upon you
No, I won't fall again
This time I won't stumble
Be okay
Once I stumbled upon
I will be okay

Hey Mr. Blues
Can you find your way home
No, I won't fall again
Into your arms wide open for me
This time I won't stumble
I will

Hey Mr. Blues

A minimix of old songs.

Lyrics:

"I hold on to the silence between the walls and you. Beyond the skies a firefly calls to me. I don’t reply. And I will wait here in the dark. I will hold. Maybe I will seem a little broken. A little lost. Fighting the stars. Fall into the moon. For you, for you.

It’s okay to be friends I don’t mind, just you and I. It’s okay to watch the world go by, just you and I. It’s okay if you don’t want more, just say, I don’t wanna be. The one who loves you. The one who stays. I will stay here where the train catches the sky. Railroad goes nowhere. And the nights have no stars. I didn’t mean to fall for you, for you.

I can see in the dark. I have no heartbeat. I can sense wiith my soul when you are close. And I’ve been waiting. And I’ve been longing for a glimpse. Just a taste of your heart. Don’t leave me here.

Whisper in the wind. Watch the days go by since I felt your, since I felt your touch.

Candle in the dark. And I’m a lonely soul and I’m a lonely soul and I’m a candle in the dark. She’s the shadow, whispering.

Connect the wires. Hear me cry out in the silence of the dark. Felt it in my bones. Shadows growing cold. Emptiness.

Walking home all alone. Even the stars are following you home. Thinking where do I belong. Oh when the day is long.

In the faraway, distance moment. Runaway. She’s just a girl. Runaway, runaway. On the mid-summer breeze. In the morning.

You took my heart away. I didn’t beg you to stay. Just another pinning wishes to the sky. I don’t need someone to save me. I don’t need someone who can fly.  I don’t need you to protect me. The sky is dark. Everyone’s crying. Everyone’s asking, is this the end.

Beautiful mind. Beautiful soul. Beautiful heartbeat-beat-beat.

The mist is falling. The sky is torn. And I am running, running to you. Tears are falling. My soul is torn. And I am setting you free. I am lying beside you. I am crying over you. I am lying beside you. I am dying for you.

Fall in the silences. Whisper it, whisper it to the stars. 

Leave your fear in the dark. Tape your love to the skies. Like a treasure to behold. Write a poem on my heart. Paint your memories on today.

Moodswings and love me like you do. All broken and tangled. Wild and heart. Imperfect and beautiful. Broken and what we are. Children of the sky. Children of the stars. Children of the wild."

Shambhala

Up the mountain

"When the silence falls
Hold me in your arms
Lonely
When the night is dark
Shadows in disguise
When the night is dark
Whisper my name
Look up at the moon
Count the diamond stars
Your love, a spark

When the silence falls
When the tears are heavy
When the night is dark
Whisper my name
When my heart is lonely
Look up at the moon
Disguise
A spark."

"Short and sweet, Wes MacDonald (Faex Optim) and Elijah Franks (PBS’73) can’t do any wrong be it together or on their own. Their collaboration release on Magic Square is a splendid mixture of downtempo—a blurring of the senses, surreal landscapes, and fragments of yesteryear. Four pieces transcending space and time, augmented drums and found-sounds, faded voices, and visions of childhood memories are the focal point for the digital imprint. With these two talented musicians behind this mysterious sonic smorgasbord, time becomes a figment of ones imagination. The music culled from fluid instrumental planes is meant for a calm listening environment, which allows Poppy Tears to open up as a pleasant sojourn through faraway mirrors reflecting visual sounds."

Learning Station

The Undefeated

I Can See For Miles

So this place came back to me tonight and I wanted to make a track for those memories and the time past. 10 years ago I had the best time of my life in Playa del Carmen in El Deseo. Just wonderful and happy times for me. On most nights I was there, there was the same DJ who played amazing tracks. I remember once he played a track by Joakim and that got me to talk to him being from Paris too. He was a wonderful person. So here's to you mister dj, 10 years later.
If you know that place in Playa leave a comment below ; )

Ian Felpel (Insomnious Noise) is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and digital artist from Lititz, PA. While proficient in EDM and alternative rock, Insomnious Noise was created in 2009 out of an intense passion for ambient, drone, and cinematic soundscapes.

I've been involved for many years as a Performer, Conductor, Composer, Arranger, Teacher and Publisher of Orchestral/Brass music. Most of my output, up to now,has been in the form of printed music for others to play but have discovered the world of DAW's, VSTi's.
Soundcloud is really opening my ears to lots of new types of styles &amp; genres. My musical taste, was already expansive, ranging from Medieval to Minimalist, from Prog-Rock to Big Band Jazz. and almost anything in between. Now I'm enjoying discovering lots of new approaches to musical communication.
Not being a chorus, verse, middle-eight type of musician; I hope I can approach the whole subject from a fresh direction, that others, hopefully, will enjoy.
