Lyrics blue men of the Minch:

We are in Scotland,
We hear the story of the blue men of the Minch, some sort of blue creatures looking like human but t hey live under water in deep caves
looking for sailors to drawn
and stricken boats to sink
They have a blue colour, this mythical creatures look much like humans, and are about the same size. But they have the power to create storms.
When the weather was fine they were sleeping under the surface of the water. They swim with their torsos raised out of the water, twisting and diving.
They could cause storm. The blue creatures approached the capitain of a ship
And said that he had to finish the rhyme
The capitain had to solve riddles and finish 2 rhymes of poetry.

If he couldn’t do it the ship was capsised

Blue Chief: Man of the black cap what do you say
As your proud ship cleaves the brine?
Skipper: My speedy ship takes the shortest way
And I'll follow you line by line
Blue Chief: My men are eager, my men are ready
To drag you below the waves
Skipper: My ship is speedy, my ship is steady
If it sank, it would wreck your caves.

Lyrics by Heidi-Marie

In the haze of darkened confusion
Lost in a maze
Of my own illusion
I turned to her with eyes so true
 and softly whispered
What should i do

Her voice a gentle melody
Guiding me through uncertainty
In her wisdom I found my way
She’s the light
That turns
Night into grey
So I asked her what to do
She said
Follow
I’ll guide you through

Every step
Every choice you make
Believe in yours
For your own sake

Through the storms and the raging tide
She stood by me
Right by my side
With courage
From life so pure
She showed me a path
Steady and sure

Her words like a calming breeze
Easing my life with gentle eazse
In her strength I found my own
She’s the rock that I lean on
So I asked her what to do
She said trust in yourself
You’ll make it through
Take a breath
Let your spirits soar
You have the strength and
so much more

Now I see clearer than before
Her guidance lead me to open new doors
With gratitude in my heart
I stand tall
For her wisdom lifted me
When I would fall

So I asked her what to do
She said
Embrace who you are
Your dreams pursue

In your journey
Let your soul ignite
You have the power to shine so bright
With her words echoing in my mind
I leave doubt and fear
Far behind
For in her presence
I found the key
To unlock the best version of me

Symphony of Wisdom

Juno

The Cedar Ballad is my latest sonopoem written in the form of a quatrain ballad, which is an old traditional form of verse.

It is accompanied by multiple tracks of field recording I took in Fez,Morocco this year and that I mixed to create a story. 
It offers sounds from the Medina, the local tannery, the looming and dyeing processes, kids and kittens, the Cedar Forest in the Middle Atlas.

'Clink, scratch and clank
the din of the cedar ballad
Creep, creep along the roach
they tether the mule to the cedar trunk

Dyed and enamelled the belongings 
of the cedar ballad
Meow, meow the kittens meow
in the streets of the cobalt city

À bientôt, au revoir the kids wave
in the streets of the cobalt city
The latch at the door in the Dar
praying to the cedar ballad 

Walking, walking in the cedar wood
awestruck the cedars of the cedar ballad
walking, walking in the cedar wood
stack up the wood of the cedar wood

Cedars, cedars, etched
the wounds of the cedar ballad
Cedars, cedars, aloft 
the heights of the cedar ballad


Clic, scratch e clac
il baccano della ballata dei cedri
Striscia, striscia la blatta
legano il mulo al tronco del cedro

Tinti e smaltati gli averi
della ballata dei cedri
Miao, miao miagolano i gattini
per le strade della città di cobalto

À bientôt, au revoir salutano i bambini
per le strade della città di cobalto
Il chiavistello alla porta nella Dar
pregare la ballata dei cedri

Cammina, cammina nel bosco di cedri
come rapiti i cedri della ballata dei cedri
Cammina, cammina nel bosco di cedri
accatasta il legno del bosco di cedri

Cedri, cedri, intagliati
le ferite della ballata dei cedri
Cedri, cedri, lassù
le altezze della ballata dei cedri'

[Текст песни «forgive me»]

[Интро]
Что с нами стало дружище (3x)
Что с нами стало дружище (3x)

[Куплет 1]
Взгляни на меня теперь я снова один буду
Я будто бы утонул в этой пучине сумрак
Я хотел бы всё вернуть но уже слишком поздно
Я снова утопаюсь в этой пучине сумрак

[Припев]
В этой пучине сумрак (4x)
В этой пучине сумрак (4x)

[Куплет 2]
Я знаю то что ты пытался найти здесь себя
В этой пучине сумрак (2x)
Я снова забываюсь ты уж прости меня
В этой пучине сумрак (2x)

[Аутро]
Что с нами стало дружище (3x)
Что с нами стало дружище (3x)

forgive me (prod. voidrave99)

Amidst the veils of time, the gods stir. From his throne in Asgard, Odin’s gaze pierces the ages, while the winds whisper of warriors long fallen. Thunder rolls as Thor’s hammer crashes, shaking the heavens with unrelenting fury. In the twilight of the unseen, Loki weaves his tangled web of deceit, his laughter echoing through the void. Heimdall, ever vigilant, stands sentinel at the Bifröst, as Frigg murmurs fate’s untold secrets. And in the golden halls, the memory of Baldur glows like an ember in the dark—a sorrowful echo of light lost too soon.

Between the forces of chaos and order, past and future, this album emerges—a song carved from the echoes of eternity, where the voices of the ancients still call.

The Weaving of Fate (Frigg)

Hi, thanks for passing by here!
You might ask why this project is called "Cosmic", while i am not doing german kosmik-kraut 70`s stuff? 
Well, the term "cosmic" is used by me because of my sympathy and respect for the brave musicians of the Kraut- and Kosmische Musik.
I´ve listened much (and still listen) to their music and find it still inspiring.
But this doesn´t mean that i try to copy it. 
Tangerine Dream, Can, Amon Düül, La Düsseldorf, Cluster, Kraftwerk and many more made their own special music 50 years before and it is still worse being recognized!
But: making your own music doesn´t mean trying to sound like anybody else, isn´t it? 
I chose a name for this project wich shows a part of the path i took, not more. As you might notice there are a lot more influences in my music and the most important of all is the joy of making music ;)
