wow - cool indie pop song - good production

This is great! Amazing track, and vocals on top. keep it up!

Good lyrics, vocal performance, and production. 💜🤘

I can't believe you made me repost a christmas song! :D

wow, what a wonderful song, love the voice and melody!

A quiet Christmas scene wrapped in static and snowfall, where love, arguments, and the weight of the year all blur together. Snow Keeps Falling Anyway drifts through the small moments that make the holidays both beautiful and unbearable: barking dogs outside, a half-empty bottle of gin, relatives we hardly see, and the silence that lingers after every fight.

Wishing everyone a peaceful, messy, beautiful Christmas 2025, hold your people close, even when it snows. 🎄✨

The tree’s half lit, the lights keep flickering,
You’re in the kitchen, quietly simmering,
Over words I shouldn’t have said,
Over ghosts we thought were dead.

Your mother’s laugh echoes down the hall,
Relatives we hardly see at all,
Talk about the year that’s gone,
Like nothing’s ever wrong.

Snow keeps falling anyway,
Covers all the things we’ll never say,
The dogs are barking down the street,
And the silence in here feels so complete.
Pass me that bottle of gin,
Let’s toast to what could’ve been,
Love’s a fight we both still play,
And snow keeps falling anyway.

We argue about who forgot to call,
While the tinsel droops and the needles fall,
I see the hurt behind your grin,
Another year, another sin.

Your brother’s talking politics again,
I fake a smile, you roll your eyes at him,
Outside it’s white, inside it’s gray,
But we’ll survive another day.

Snow keeps falling anyway,
Covers all the things we’ll never say,
The dogs are barking down the street,
And the silence in here feels so complete.
Pass me that bottle of gin,
Let’s toast to what could’ve been,
Love’s a fight we both still play,
And snow keeps falling anyway.

And maybe by the time the lights go out,
We’ll forget what this was all about,
Hold each other just to stay warm,
Two ghosts in a Christmas storm.

Snow keeps falling anyway,
Covers love that couldn’t stay,
The dogs still bark, the night won’t end,
Another year begins again.
Pass me that bottle of gin,
Let’s toast to what might’ve been,
We’ll laugh, we’ll fight, we’ll fade away,
While snow keeps falling anyway.

Snow Keeps Falling Anyway (Feat. Tracey Phillips)

What That The Heart Can Tell

The clock above her station blinks
Half-past dawn in frozen pink
She ties her braid with silver thread
and hums the jingle in her head

The air smells faintly sweet and sharp
of plastic snow and solder sparks
She paints a smile on someone's joy
then checks the time, then paints a toy

There's glitter dust on every breath
and laughter printed on the box
The barcode hums like winter hymns
for places she will never walk

Her friend folds ribbons from the scraps
a red one tied around her wrist
She says, 
"Tonight we'll hang them high
a paper moon, 
our Christmas list."

Spin the wheel
little saint of steel
haloed in heat 
and factory peel
Dreams on the floor
lights overhead
The elves don't sleep
they build instead

In dreams she walks through aisles of snow
her shoes leave prints that start to glow
Each toy she made now calls her name
in tiny voices soft with blame

"Mama
you built us one by one
now rest
your shift is never done"

The manager posts a Christmas quote
on a board of rules and warnings bold
She smiles, then wipes the gold paint dry
her hands now shimmer, red and cold

Outside the trucks hum minor chords
the night is lit by plastic stars
She whispers to the empty dark
"We made your joy - whoever you are"

Spin the wheel
little saint of steel
haloed in heat
and factory peel
Dreams on the floor
lights overhead
The elves don't sleep
they build instead

The elves don't sleep
but they still believe

The Elves Don't Sleep

Markus Hansen / mhmedia.de – Leg ne Pause ein

Die Anti-Hymne für unsere überreizte Zeit. 📵
„Leg ne Pause ein“ ist der dringende Aufruf, sich dem ständigen Lärm, der Konsumhysterie und dem Perfektionswahn des digitalen Alltags zu entziehen. Inmitten von News-Flut, Werbe-Bombardement und Social-Media-Stress liefert Markus Hansen den Soundtrack für den Digital Detox und die bewusste Auszeit.
Musikalisch überrascht der Song als eingängiger Deutsch-Pop mit einem energischen Rock-Einfluss und einem ungewöhnlich entspannten, minimalistischen Posaunen-Solo, das die Ruhe des Textes perfekt untermalt. Ein Song, der zum Nachdenken anregt und daran erinnert: Es ist okay, einfach mal offline zu sein.


Songtext

Leg ne Pause ein
Ich mach ne Pause Während alles um mich
Sich quält, abhetzt und rennt 
dabei innerlich verbrennt

Nichts kann mich stören
in dieser Zeit 
bin gelassen, frei und froh 
das ist nicht immer so

Ein Moment ohne Werbung 
die sich überall zeigt 
die schön, perfekt und heil ist 
was du nicht bist

Ich lege ne Pause ein Mach das Smartphone aus 
Ich leg ne Pause ein 
Setz mich irgendwo hin 
Ich leg ne Pause ein mach die Augen zu 
Ich leg ne Pause ein bis ich wieder ich bin


Kurze Nachrichtensperre 
Die uns überschwemmen 
erschrecken, nerven und quälen 
auf allen Kanälen

Eine Zeitlang Konsumfrei 
ohne Warenkorb 
Weder Prozente, Sale noch Angebot 
und auch kein Promocode

ch lege ne Pause ein Mach das Smartphone aus 
Ich leg ne Pause ein Setz mich irgendwo hin 
Ich leg ne Pause ein mach die Augen zu
 Ich leg ne Pause ein das macht wirklich Sinn

Solo (Minimalistisches Posaunen-Solo)

Ich poste gar nichts 
Will überhaupt nichts teilen 
weder Reel, Story oder Short 
Ich sage kein Wort

Leg ne Pause ein

“Low Life” is a cinematic Icelandic post-rock composition where droning distorted guitar, choir textures, and the Heima String Kvartett merge into an overwhelming wall of sound. Within the density, delicate string melodies, church organ harmonies, and slow-moving atmospheric post rock dynamics create a piece that shifts from heavy and immersive to fragile and intimate.

Mike Taylor’s church organ anchors the track in a cathedral-like resonance, while the layered strings drift between modern classical minimalism and widescreen instrumental soundtrack music.
A powerful, textured work that captures the sound of volcanic landscapes, deep emotional pressure, and slow-burning eruption.

This is Icelandic post rock with strings, rooted in cinematic expression, drone guitar atmospheres, and a glacial sense of space.

This is a rough demo of a track that is about overdoing it - taken from burning your candle at both ends. Hope you like it. Thanks for listening

BURNING MY CANDLE

Second track in a suite of tracks inspired by a walk along a wooded river bank in the summer close to where I live. This track describes where the river flows into a stlll, slow flowing becalmed area. Enjoy the calming, relaxing atmosphere. CD
