A version of Michael McDonald's 'I Can Let Go Now'.

I Can Let Go Now

The Divine Purpose

A cosmic dance for the unity of everything

Unity

'The First Flower' is a musical interpretation of the opening words of Eckhart Tolle's book 'A New Earth':

“Earth, 114 million years ago, one morning just after sunrise: The first flower ever to appear on the planet opens up to receive the rays of the sun. Prior to this momentous event that heralds an evolutionary transformation in the life of plants, the planet had already been covered in vegetation for millions of years. The first flower probably did not survive for long, and flowers must have remained rare and isolated phenomena, since conditions were most likely not yet favorable for a widespread flowering to occur. One day, however, a critical threshold was reached, and suddenly there would have been an explosion of color and scent all over the planet—if a perceiving consciousness had been there to witness it.

Much later, those delicate and fragrant beings we call flowers would come to play an essential part in the evolution of consciousness of another species. Humans would increasingly be drawn to and fascinated by them. As the consciousness of human beings developed, flowers were most likely the first thing they came to value that had no utilitarian purpose for them, that is to say, was not linked in some way to survival. They provided inspiration to countless artists, poets, and mystics. Jesus tells us to contemplate the flowers and learn from them how to live. The Buddha is said to have given a “silent sermon” once during which he held up a flower and gazed at it. After a while, one of those present, a monk called Mahakasyapa, began to smile. He is said to have been the only one who had understood the sermon. According to legend, that smile (that is to say, realization) was handed down by twenty-eight successive masters and much later became the origin of Zen."

The First Flower (Extended Version)

The words on this are of course borrowed from Tennyson ... :)

Ulysses

Inspired by a poem by Robert Bly:

 “Ah, on this planet we are born again and again. A gold sun rises in the East, but for us, it is a black sun. Each time the black sun rises, dazzling and tremendous, its sadness flows into us. ‘If this sadness could not flow out of me, it would kill me.’
I listen and I see a horse-dragon swim up out of the Black Sea. It climbs into the air. Play on, play on - what can we do but long for this dragon-water from the Black Sea to fall on us?”

While making this, the medieval text 'Omnia sol temperat' dumped into my head. As it have the rebirth theme as well, the synchronicity of it all seemed unmistakeable :-)

Ah, on this Planet

Ah, On This Planet

Petite Marie

This was made under the very clear new moon seal while venus was hanging even brighter right above it. Or so it seemed from earth. The track is built around the handpan and is a hymn to everflowing love. No less :)

By the early dew
and the morning new
Let's play serious
By the crack of dawn
and the early yawn
We´re born

By the sea-shore breeze
and the things to ease
Let's play serious
By the warming sun
and the loaded gun
on the run

Let's play serious
with our eyes
Let's play serious
and be tight
Let's play serious
frivolous
dangerous
adventurous
Angel of ...

By Her Lioness
and her claw's caress
Let's play serious
For the ties professed
and the words confessed
We're blessed

By the Goddess Moon
and the month of June
Let's play serious 
By Venus and Mars
and a billion stars
Stars

Let's play serious
with our eyes
Let's play serious
and be tight
Let's play serious
frivolous
dangerous
adventurous
Angel of ...

For the times to heal
and the place to kneel
Let's play serious
for the summerrain
and the endless pain
We're sane

For the songs of love
and the things to come
Let's play serious 
in the clear blue night
and the feeling's right
We're tight

Let's play serious
with our eyes
Let's play serious
and be tight
Let's play serious
frivolous
dangerous
adventurous
Angel of ...

And for the times we falter
and for the thing to alter
Let's play
And from the crippled maybe
to forever, baby
Let's play
And for the record's spinning
and our bodies sinning
Let's play
And for the sounds of laughter
and forever after
Let's play
and for our bones decaying
and the words we're saying
Let's play

Losing My Religion

I like to play with sound and mould it into music. I use elements from psychill, downtempo, ambient, new age, world music and rock, jazz and pop. For me it's essential that you can hear the human behind and the play with consciousness. I'm inspired by Man of no Ego, Pink Floyd, Suduaya, David Sylvian, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Enigma, Daft Punk and many others.
