Ik Hou Van Jou Strijkers Mix

This is a piece I wrote for my Berklee Orchestration 2 studies.
My vision behind “Origins” was to compose a piece dealing with the Biblical story of creation, but than only the very beginning of it - Genesis 1:1-5
(Complete Jewish Bible):
“1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was unformed and void, darkness was on the face of the deep, and the Spirit
of God hovered over the surface of the water. 3 Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and God
divided the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. So there was evening, and there was morning, one day.”

Part 1 deals with the empty chaos that was on the earth, before God created light and time. Than God’s voice speaks - “Agnus Dei” which means
“Lamb of God” - which points to the Son of God being the source, salvation and fulfillment of humankind and creation itself.
The speaking of God creates time and light, a big climax of part 1.

Part 2 starts with a big bassdrum in a heartbeat-like pattern, like the heartbeat of creation starting up, which develops into a homophonic chord pro-
gression, depicting unity, oneness, and peace after the choas of part 1. A soaring melody and a middleground movement in contrast to the dark
character of the chord progression depict the separation of light form darkness.

The Energy Story

This is a little Christmas gift for everyone who has contributed to my Indiegogo campaign or has shown an interest in my music. It´s an experimental improvisation to a well known Christmas song I love. Have a listen, with headphones on and drift away on the soundscape... Have a happy and blessed Christmas everyone.

O Come Immanuël Instrumental 2017

Lovely track written by Marlou based on a poem by the early 20th century Irish poet Joseph Mary Plunkett. The intro may sound familiar to some of you, it is my rendering of the intro of "Reel Around the Sun", from the great Riverdance show.

I SEE his blood upon the rose	
And in the stars the glory of his eyes,	
His body gleams amid eternal snows,	
His tears fall from the skies.	
 
I see his face in every flower;
The thunder and the singing of the birds	
Are but his voice—and carven by his power	
Rocks are his written words.	
 
All pathways by his feet are worn,	
His strong heart stirs the ever-beating sea,
His crown of thorns is twined with every thorn,	
His cross is every tree.

Reel Around INTRO into I See H

I see His Blood with Reel Around intro

Wishing everybody a 2013 in which we will experience and discover more of the amazing Presence of Yeshua in our lives. The world around us is getting uglier and darker all the time, but we, lovers of God, are children of the Light. To discover the beauty of the Lord means to be a light to those around us. Let's make this world a better place by being representatives of Heaven, bringing hope where there is despair, life where there is death, beauty amidst  ugliness, excellence amidst mediocrity.

If you like this song, why not buy our new CD "We Belong to the Day".

Be Blessed!
