Description: About what happens after the main event is over

A beautiful track, David. Very emotional!

Interesting use of ambient sounds to get an introduction of the mood of the music!

Vibey, atmospheric, and emotionally rich—this track captures a moment and makes you feel it over and over again.

Excellent production and a joy to listen to.

PROGRAM NOTE
Many composers associate orchestral instruments with animals to great effect, such as Prokofiev with Peter and the Wolf, Rimsky-Korsakov with Flight of the Bumblebee, Saint-Saëns with Carnival of the Animals, and perhaps most obsessively, Messiaen with birds from all over the world. In Soar, I associate the trumpet with an eagle, a bird that can fly as high as ten thousand feet and as fast as two hundred miles per hour. Like an eagle soaring above mountains, Soar requires the trumpet player to play fast and high, and both the trumpet and piano parts are, at times, quite virtuosic. In this sense, Soar is really meant as a show-off piece for expert trumpet players.

I enjoyed building a drum track by mixing samples, synthesized sounds, and LFOs.
All the synths originated from the MPC.
The guitars I used are a Gibson SG Standard and a Fender Stratocaster.

HORMIGA

https://youtu.be/J7I4dtEd-g4

"Yo me llamo Domingo Espinoza,
yo soy... me quedo en la iglesia,
¿Cómo se llama? yo soy... yo no soy mero mero de aquí,
yo soy de Tlanchinol".

Trueno intenso,
tiempo negro,
viento frío,
llueve intenso,
olor a fresco.

Dolerá hormiga.

"Allá de Tlanchinol, allá de la Sierra de la Huasteca,
cerca de Tampico, ¿Si conoces Tampico o no conoces?".

Luna blanca,
pecho lleno,
cae neblina,
sube y gira,
cae a tierra.

Dolerá hormiga.

"Ajajajajajajá, acá na'más pues,
a que esta persona es este,
y yo me quedaba aquí atrás,
aquí, aquí me queda... ¿Cómo se llama...?
aquí me quedaba atrás".

Campo abierto,
solo cielo,
cerro abajo,
viene fiero,
sopla en serio.

Dolerá hormiga.

Shalom is the word for Peace. This song is in my Maltese language. You might not understand it, but it speaks about the shalom that we need in our fears. 

Shalom

Two Too Many is a pensive and introspective piece, where Jeremias Langsämmer carefully balances restraint and emotion. The pizzicato strings establish a quiet pulse, like measured footsteps in contemplation, while the cello and violin add depth and longing. Swelling string textures emerge gently, never overwhelming, but coloring the piece with a sense of unresolved thought. It’s music that feels like an internal dialogue—reflective, searching, and quietly expressive. Langsämmer crafts a space where emotion lingers in the pauses as much as in the notes themselves, making for a deeply affecting listen.

Velvet Chains

this is an enhanced version of the tune ´turn back time´ by @earth-patriot , which was done in Mai of 2025.

are you too baked
to see what is going on ?
they try to turn back time

like lights had changed 
from green to red
they try to take us back

tables might turn
on you, my friend

They try to turn back Time   #ResistTrump

Jeremias Langsämmer – As The Light Dims Slowly
A piano-led meditation unfolding at an adagio pace, As The Light Dims Slowly channels the hesitant phrasing of Erik Satie. Cello, violin, and soft strings offer gentle support, moving in and out of the piano's uncertain light. Sparse and reflective, the piece lingers in moments of pause as much as in sound, capturing the hush of evening as it slowly gives way to night.

As The Light Dims Slowly

brewing coffee - Part II

This instrumental piano album, 'Fading Embers', explores the profound emotional landscapes found within the quietude of night. Each piece, crafted in the Romantic style, represents a journey through introspection, longing, dramatic outbursts, and eventual serene resignation. 

Nocturne for a Lost Heart

Based on events of a long gone era and how those with a different point of view were treated at the time.

The Aftermath

Hi - I write songs - here is a selection from over the years - thank you for taking the time to listen. More info on the links below. Thanks.

Thank you for >1 million streams 🙏 Royal supplier of music to HRM Queen Ameenata Koita. I create healing and hypnotic music in the Earth House genre - think ambient/electronica/new age with a lotta love, mantras and world instruments. 
I have studied psychoacoustics, so you may expects ASMR, and don't be surprised if my music takes you on a trip to outer - or inner - space.
