il y a des thèmes pour qui il est difficile de les mettrent en musiques, et ici j'ai été pris par surprise, une fin de vie qui nous emmènes vers un endroit plutôt optimiste avec ces guitares épiques et ce rythme qui prend aux tripes,absolument fantastique

Already glad I have the headphones on. :)

Reminds me a bit of the Cure's calmer ambient tracks. Quite beautiful.

Such Deep Emotionnal Ambient Full of Feel 💖🎶⭐

The Golden Age

faced with the rays of heaven
you'll see everything is how it's meant to be
so let that supposition result in dancing
and the sound arising as you feel the need

quiet harbingers have walked the path alone 
and left behind their guidance in the marking stones
there is substance to these dreams of Avalon
I know you feel it in your bones

messages of love by satellite the anthem of the final days
we gather in the starless night in the last of the golden age

the heavy burdens of this life 
can make us selfish and blind
I see you there and I know
you are honest and kind

there is no weapon that will prevail against us
as we  stand our ground in the final days
you must remember love is relentless
here in the golden age 

trust that your heart will fill with joy 

it's still so early in the spring
on the spectrum of life 
more subtle is the journey as we arrive
no more hiding in half light

will you be there in the light of love

The Golden Age

"The Fog" came so my head could remain in the clouds while my feet are still planted firmly on the ground!

Lyrics:
The Fog 

Is this me?
What’s it mean?
That I’m floating?

When I’m floating…

Living light and warmth
In your arms I can feel
My cares disappear
I can see in your eyes
A sincerity that I’ve only
imagined in this life

I feel helpless
Inside the waves
Of pain, they
Come billowing down
Billowing down, billowing down
I am minuscule in a daze
Unfazed
And it’s weighing me down
Weighing me down
Weighing me down

And I know it’s just the mention
Of perceived fog
But I need redemption
Cuz I know if my intentions checked
out they’d be wrong

I feel helpless
Inside the waves
Of pain
Come billowing down
Billowing down, billowing down
I am minuscule in a daze
Unfazed
And it’s weighing me down
Weighing me down
Weighing me down

Is this me?
What’s it mean?

I can see in your eyes
A sincerity that I’ve only
Imagined in this life

Though I know it’s just the mention 
Of perceived fog.

The Fog (Feat. production by 12 Below)

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

This is unapologetically inspired by the A-side to one of my favorite albums of all time. I'll let you guess which album that is - if you are older than 50 it will most likely be easier.

A lot of us spend our lives chasing a dream, and despite reaching milestone after milestone the dream is always just beyond our reach. If you're lucky all you need to do is stop and think - maybe you're already there. I was reminded about this when told a story about a popular beach boatman asked by a hedge fund manager why he doesn't invest in an additional boat. After many questions the investor tells him that after years he could become so financially successful that he could spend his afternoons with his family and friends. The boatman tells him that after his morning fishing run that is already what he does. 

The guitar is a Logic Pro X Heavy Metal Guitar. For the drums I "mixed it up" a bit by using more reverb on the snare than on the rest of the drums. Also had a hi-hat in there initially but I took it out as I thought it muddied up the sound too much. In general I debated how much reverb to use and progressively used less and less to try and warm it up. For the bass I combined an electric bass with a traditional standing base. I departed from my usual approach of trying to reproduce as natural a piano sound as possible by using equalization to mainly remove some of the high and low end - the purpose being to create a "lo-fi" sound. Finally, the synth is Nord Native and treated with some ringshift to get the moving in and out your ears effect.  

LATELY MAYBE

Too much
Not enough
Will I ever
Is it never
I can’t see
Will it ever be

Lately, I’ve been thinking too much
Lately, I’ve been dreaming too much
Maybe, I’m in heaven
Maybe, I made it yesterday

Is this the end
Or could it be the beginning
I can’t tell
It seems a bit like hell
So many moving parts
So many false starts

Lately, I’ve been thinking too much
Lately, I’ve been dreaming too much
Maybe, I’m in heaven
Maybe, I made it yesterday

Too much
Not enough
Lately
Maybe
Lately it’s been too much
Maybe it’s been too much

Lately Maybe

Phil Chris sent me this song, which was little more than a beat and some chords. I then added some bass, guitar, piano, organ, and synth. Then, I sent it to Tez to work his magic on the board. he came up with two very distinct mixes. The first one, which I already posted, has two beats in it, so it sounds like a heartbeat, and it is very guitar heavy. This mix really focuses on the organ. It almost sounds like a different song, imo. I hope you all enjoy the remix.
