Such a sublimely beautiful atmosphere you've achieved here. Love the video too! So well done Ali

This track was created to be part of my "Clutha Project", reflecting on memories of my childhood and connections with the River Clyde. My parents went over to the Isle of Cumbrae to visit my grandparents in Millport, many years ago and I was living in London at the time.  After they got home they rang me to say they had been privileged to see a really strong display of Aurora Borealis from Millport, which was a bit unusual as normally you need to be further north to see these. They were really impressed by what they had seen and I sensed they had shared a moment of awe and wonderment together. Sadly I have never seen these lights myself other than on film or video. So I has happy for them but also slightly jealous. This track tries to reflect the ethereal wonder of these beautiful lights and the sense of awe my parents felt from what they had seen that night.

Daemonic Whispers - Crow Hill Company's Pocket Strings Composing Challenge

For the Crowhill composer challenge July 25. Using only their pocket strings plugin.

Time's Up! - Crow Hill Composer Challenge - July 2025

PocketStrings.Challenge.Crowhill.by.David.O.White.07,06.2025 - 01 Start(2)

Challenge - to compose a track using only the Crow Hill Pocket Strings library, one day turnaround.  Library has amazing shorts and pizz, sweeping longs, and a really intuitive GUI which allows you to blend as needed great string samples, and also two vintage string synths, with in-library effects.  Chose this genre to make something different to my usual style in the spirit of a challenge, but also make the best of those cracking pizz and shorts and see if I could use them as a creative stand-in for brass stabs and punchy bass.  Really brilliant library at the price point, I had lots of fun!  Thanks for listening!

Made entirely from stringed instruments, using the updated Crow Hill Company Glass Strings, this is one of the most vulnerable pieces I’ve put together.

It’s for moments when words fall short. Music to sit with when you feel quiet, overwhelmed, or just need space. Like the mirror it’s named after, it reflects something back - stillness, sadness, or whatever’s been waiting to surface.

I wanted each note to feel like it was disappearing into the distance. Like how a mirror creates a sense of space - not actual space, but reflected space. That illusion, that gentle stretching of reality, is what this track leans into.

I hope you enjoy it!

The Looking Glass

Original song by Nick Drake

Lyrics:

When I was young, younger than before
I never saw the truth hanging from the door
And now I’m older see it face to face
And now I’m older gotta get up, clean the place

And I was green, greener than the hill
Where flowers grew and sun shone still
Now I’m darker than the deepest sea
Just hand me down, give me a place to be

And I was strong, strong in the sun
I thought I’d see when day was done
Now I’m weaker than the palest blue
Oh, so weak in this need for you

Place to Be (live acoustic cover, orig. song by Nick Drake)

Tom's piano melodies are so inspirational, not just to me (Mark) but also to Jussi, Georg and Boon. The energy of this piece carried us all off on a wonderful journey. We hope you enjoy the joyful enthusiasm that Tom initiated. Tom also gave me the key line, 'My Way Through' and I had to run with it as it made so much sense with this uplifting and hopeful music. Thanks for listening.

Wherever you’re bound you know I’ll, 
Make my way through 
Sure may take a little while
 But I’ll make my way through

Wherever I’m bound I know I’ll,
 Make my way through
 It may take a longer while 
Till I make my way through

Wherever you’re bound,
…You’re bound
I know that I’m bound, yeah!

When I get there you know I’ll
Make my way through
Sure may need a broader smile
But I’ll make my way through.

My Way Through - Tom Régnier & Friends

Here's track 7 from the album "Congeries," featuring Marty Lucas on piano. 
Mixed and mastered by Jon Huxtable.

Lyrics:
Whispers 
The wind on the plains 
Restless 
The eternal remains 

They all will rise up at the omen 
Snow-covered kings, yearly frozen 
Sprung from the hills like new children 

From the stone-laden tombs long forgotten 
Clad in a cold fallen cotton, 
They’ll emerge to the fields that they fought in

Congeries
