Southstar - Miss You (grid bootleg)

Anton's Summer [Demo]

Devoured
By the moment
Time slips away
mmmmmm

And all those
Around her
The diffident
And the feeble ones

Surrender
And go out there
Where we'll take them in
Take them in

Take my outstretched hand
Please don't run
Don't let me down
The waves, the surf, the sea
Will always be
Will always be

Above all
Calm and noble...
She rests her head
mmmmmm

All the voices
That surround her
Slowly fade away
Fade away

Withdraw
Into seclusion
Where we'll take them in
Take them in

Take my outstretched hand
Please don't run
Don't let me down
The waves, the surf, the sea
Will always be
Will always be
Love will lift you home
Don't look down
You're not alone

A stranger
But free
A reminiscence
Of the sea

The deep blue
Of an ocean
A reflection of
What we will be

The waves, the surf, the sea
Will always be
Will always be
Love will lift you home
Don't look down
You're not alone
Love will let you go
The love you knew
Long ago
The waves, the surf, the sea
Will always be
Will always be

NSLB promo mix 2024

Dame Nellie Melba’s early recording of 'Chant Vénitien’, a song composed by Herman Bemberg, who accompanies her in this recording. It was made for the Gramophone Company in London on 20 October 1904.
NFSA title: 301462
The recording process at that time was quite simple. The musicians stood in front of a horn which was mechanically connected to a needle which cut a spiral groove in a wax blank. From the wax master more copies could be made which could then be used to press numerous discs for sale. Recording through a horn in this direct, mechanical way was limited in both the frequency and dynamic range recorded onto the disc. Melba’s voice had a tonal quality which was well suited to the medium and this was one of the reasons for her immediate recording success.

These were the very early days of the record industry, with cylinders and discs fighting it out for market dominance. Having a star such as Melba recording for them was a great advantage for the Gramophone Company. The recordings that she and Enrico Caruso made in these early days did much to convince the general public that recorded music was the home entertainment medium of the future. The records paved the way for the recording industry to follow.

Behemoth (Live At Abbatiale)- Video Link in description

If you want to bring it down to a common denominator it would be music. The diverse activities of Swiss sound artist Cyrill Lim range from installations in gallery spaces, art and music performances to compositions in the contemporary and experimental music scene, live recordings of classical music or studio pop productions and songwriting.

The latter – being more of a hobby – gained more center stage after the release of his first album "" (untitled, erdkugel recordings 2015), which is physically only available as vinyl. Since digital distribution systems do not allow an untitled work, the album was published digitally in form of two EPs (side A and side B of the vinyl) with the titles "☼" and "☃" .

New releases followed in 2019, 2020, 2022 and 2023 including collaborations with Serbian singer and author Ana Avramov and a remix for the track Heimat (2022, October House Records), recorded by experimental music duo Hyper Duo.

His latest series of songs always consists of pairs. They have the same colour in their artwork and complement each other but are also connected to the last and next pair of songs.

The latest release, Arise (2023, CLS records), the second of the second pair of songs, was just released on July 15th.

Cyrill's songs are best described as melancholic, soft and gentle sounds and melodies that tell of longing and the desire for solitude, usually garnished with a pinch of hope.
