Midnight Hunting 2

This is the second track of an instrumental project I've entitled "It's All Greek to Me", as I explore the myths and legends of Ancient Greece.

I'm using Ancient Greek instruments featured in the 'Ancient Worlds VST Library from Big Fish Audio', underpinned with classical orchestral instruments. There are some very interesting sounds in it that do seem to evoke a time long ago.

Background

According to Greek mythology, Sirens were dangerous creatures, who lured nearby sailors with their enchanting music and singing voices to shipwreck on the rocky coast of their island. Despite modern iconography depicting the Sirens as mermaids, early Greek art depicted them as part woman, part bird.

For this piece a Greek galley is introduced with a steady drum pulse and some Greek instruments to set the scene. We start with the Pan Flute supported by the Strings (Lyre and Kithara). Cymbal rolls represent the waves. The melody then passes to the Flogera and Alto Flute and a lone Siren voice before all three make an appearance. From then on they all act in counterpoint to each other. 

As the Sirens continue to charm the sailors, the Samvyke is introduced (another stringed instrument) as a sort of controlled tension that slowly gets a bit more frantic as the track starts to build. French Horns and Percussion herald the full fury of the Sirens unleashed on the luckless sailors. Helpless to resist, their boat is dashed upon the rocks. 

As the ship begins to break up on the rocky shore the track goes much smaller with a mournful solo cello, supported by the other strings. I wanted a melancholic ending  and the descending figure is supposed to represent the sinking of the boat alongside an almost funeral drum pulse, it just leads down and down into the depths of the sea. More lives have been lost to this peril of the ancient world.

The Sirens (It's All Greek to Me)

PASSION II

With his fat belly hanging over his belt
He's a lot of fun
He's got flexi jeans and a leather belt
He's the number one
Comb that thining hair 
he's got so much flair
Macho debonair

So take that bunting down
There's no one in town
And I know there's no-one cheering
You called everyone
But no-one's come
They must be hard of hearing

Pack up your dreams and put them away
There's no heaven at the end of this stairway
You never launched that ship on your slipway
You were always waiting for someday

Waiting For Someday

I dreamed I saw an ocean
So deep and wide and clear and blue
Life was still in balance
Like a water garden created anew

I dreamed I saw you swimming
Under a crystal clear open sky
It was early days for the planet
Circling round a younger star

The night falls on Panthalassa
And the sun rises there again
All sea, no humans yet

The wide open space is filling
With life of any kind
no niche, no tipping point

In the big sea
The ocean world
Panthalassa

Lost time

To all those Parents who do not see their children as much as they would like.

I do not want to think
I can not understand
That what I love the most I can lose

Because you are my life
Blood of my Blood
Because you are my everything
On Earth or on Mars

I lack your light
I lack your voice
So that my heart may be happy

Don't ... put aside my love
That ... I will always love you
It ... is the reason for my being
It was ... since I saw you being born

I lack your laughs
I am missing your jokes
Get on your roller coaster wagon

I don't know about your day
I don't know about your dreams
And from your teenage tantrums


Don't ... put aside my love
That ... I will always love you
It ... is the reason for my being
It was ... since I saw you being born

I want to see my butterfly fly
I want to see my butterfly fly ...
I want to see my butterfly fly ...
I want to see my butterfly fly


Since I saw you ... born

Quiero Ver Volar A Mi Mariposa

lyrics
we broke your tree 
i'll give you nuts
they chastised me cause people suck
dead on the road all blood and guts
we killed your mom
i'll give you nuts.

when we go and blow up the Earth
don't be sad i'm edible

feed the birds
oh yes we will

Let's Make A Connection

Still in my 'cleaning process'...another old project made in 2017
Anguille sous roche is an expression in french, litterally 'an eel under a rock' meaning something fishy.

An hypothesis: this expression would be the transcription of a verse from Virgil's Bucolics (70-19 BC): Damoetas: Qui legitis flores et humi nascentia fraga, frigidus — o pueri, fugite hinc — latet anguis in herba. DAMETAS. You who pick flowers and the strawberries that are born on the ground, flee from here, children; a cold serpent is hidden under the grass. The Latin anguis, "serpent", gave the diminutive anguila, eel. The eel may have inherited the snake's reputation for deception. This ancient origin suggests that this expression is medieval. However, it is found in the form we know it from the 16th century, in Les Grandes Annales et histoire générale de France (1579) for example, or in Les Contes et discours d'Eutrapel (1598) by Noël du Fail: This ugly espouventail, because he did not say a word, did not move, held them in very great difficulty, considering that there was indeed eel under the rock […] 
The expression is still very common today.

Evidemment, tu croyais quoi
tu le savais en plus
y a toujours anguille sous roche
tu l'savais 
tu croyais quoi
évidemment
comme à chaque fois
anguille sous roche

Lyrics:

I go to a movie and all I see is you
I move to an island cause all I want is you

The lonely hours keep bringing me back to you
I'll keep bringing you flowers cause the colors remind me of you

I see crystal waters that only wave to you
A new sensation how can this be true?

The lonely hours keep bringing me back to you
I'll keep bringing you flowers cause the colors remind me of you

I'll keep, I'll keep holding, holding you near.....

The Lonely Hours

Thank you all who take the time to listen to my music, I really appreciate every comment, like and reposts 💜 I've discovered so much amazing music on soundcloud and so many talented and lovely people too. 
I've been writing songs on and off for over 20 years, I write mostly about life experiences and anything that I'm passionate about or situations that I've been in but sometimes imaginary too.. Music means so much to me and I'm really enjoying recording more in this strange lockdown year...
I like how Rumi says it....
