雲の腹雨を孕んで底昏くあらゆるものが壊れ始めた

The belly of the black clouds is pregnant with rain.
Everything began to break down.

Cumulonimbus

This track is collaboration with Synline (Tokyo)
https://soundcloud.com/synline

With a multi month adventure road trip down the east coast of Australia on the horizon, Synline shared his dreamy departing gift to which I have the honour of layering subtle guitar interplay.

We found this music and its elements when looped to be extremely calming, especially after a night shift or long day.

'Depart' SeaShea=Synline

This is an experimental piano piece inspired by the heavy rains and flooding in Poland yesterday, which displaced many from their homes. My thoughts are with everyone affected, as we face similar situations in Greece every year. This composition reflects the rain and its aftermath.

Although it leans toward the experimental, I hope it resonates with listeners beyond classical piano enthusiasts. Interestingly, I fell ill after walking in the rain while composing this, so the piece now holds an unexpected association with that experience...

The picture was generated with DALL-E.

Lyrics: Elizabeth Bishop: Songs for a Colored Singer, Part III (1946)

Lullaby.
Adult and child
sink to their rest.
At sea the big ship sinks and dies,
lead in its breast.

Lullaby.
Let nations rage,
let nations fall.
The shadow of the crib makes an enormous cage
upon the wall.

Lullaby.
Sleep on and on,
war's over soon.
Drop the silly, harmless toy,
pick up the moon.

Lullaby.
If they should say
you have no sense,
don't you mind them; it won't make
much difference.

Lullaby.
Adult and child
sink to their rest.
At sea the big ship sinks and dies,
lead in its breast.

Lullaby

WORDS & TRANSLATION

Mit der Königsdisziplin vertraut werden, dem Feind die Hand reichen, der Liebe ins Wort schauen, mein Herzwohl in den Raum öffnen und verzichten auf das Normale, vergessen, was normal war, mein Jetzt, das Katastrophale, ins Licht stellen, anvertrauen, übergeben, die Sichel vom Nacken nehmen, den Brand von den Flammen lösen, Abschied nehmen vom Gewohnten, ich werde diesen Weg gehen.

To become familiar with the supreme discipline, shake hands with the enemy, intervene/look in the word of love, open my heart's well into space and forgo the normal, forget what was normal, put my now, the catastrophic, into the light, entrust, surrender, take the sickle off the neck, part the fire from the flames, say goodbye to the usual, I will go this way.

This is part of a collaborative venture.  From Augenmerk:

Riders in the storm use their wings from heart to heart. No borders. Become familiar with the supreme discipline. The heaven is possible. These times want voices, bridges, roads of love. At the beginning there was the word, I'm not sure, but here it is. Be fantastic and ride! People around the world, artists, musicians, vocalists, participate in your own way, style and language. Spread and connect. Be riders in the storm!

Ich werde diesen Weg gehen (ft. Augenmerk)

This track poses all of the fundamental questions that have troubled humankind since the dawn of time, and fails to answer any of them.

Questions

What are words worth?

Time and tide and Slime and slide and Crime and cried and
Dream and died and Scream inside and Gleam and glide and
Mime and mired and Prime and pride and Rhyme and ride and
Vine and vired and Wine and wired and Shrine and shade 
Fear and fade and Line and lied and Spine and spied and
Time and tide

Much admired and Acts inspired and
Lost inside and Totally wired and
Petrified 
Events conspired and
Odds defied
Paternal pride 
Reluctant bride 
Secrets confide and Warm inside
False override
Gentrified
Personified
Occupied and
Time and tide

Withering looks
Dithering minds

Won’t somebody think of the children?

Time & Tide

I've used this quote before:
"The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt" Bertrand Russell.

I'll probably use it again, but I'm not sure...

If somebody was to ask me what this track is about, I would say: it's about five and a half minutes.

Riddled With Doubt

It’s hard to put faith in the wisdom of choice
When reality sinks in a cesspool of noise
…from overgrown boys

Old Aunty balances truth with lies
And fantasy island is never corrupted with facts
…by the usual hacks

They wallow in excesses of self-esteem
They swagger and they bluster, born to rule
…the archetypal fool

Convinced yourself that they’re better than you
But scratch away the surface and you see what’s true
They’re imposters too
