More quarter soothing. Unfortunately, I can no longer test it, but it could also be: fully soothing. Who understands toddlers?

Enjoy this moment! This is the first time halF unusuaL has ever released anything in a vaguely major key! 😜

Axis Project - Mechanical Spiders    - noxpox Remix

[Verse]
I learned to smile,
The way they do,
But their laughter fades,
And I’m left confused.
Words are easy,
But meanings hide,
In the space between,
Where I reside.

[Chorus]
I see the world, just like they do,
But I’ll never look in their eyes.
I blend right in, in the light of day,
But inside, I'm lost in their lies.

[Verse]
Their faces shift,
But I can’t see,
The lines they draw,
Weren’t meant for me.
I read the books,
I know the rules,
But in their world,
I’m just a fool.

[Chorus]
I see the world, just like they do,
But I’ll never look in their eyes.
I blend right in, in the light of day,
But inside, I'm lost in their lies.

[Bridge]
Behind the mask,
I wear so well,
Is a heart that aches,
A silent yell.

[Chorus]
I see the world, just like they do,
But I’ll never look in their eyes.
I blend right in, in the light of day,
But inside, I'm lost in their lies.
I'm lost in their lies

The Space Between [I'll Never Look In Their Eyes]

2024 Remix and Remaster version to bring it up to the standard of the later album tracks for full album release in 2024.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


This track is dedicated to the memory of Chris A and the time that was 'Elidor'. "I hope you are flying somewhere with that big grin on your face"

This track was very much a collision of ideas. I wanted to follow on from The North Shore and actually take the listener into the air to experience the feeling and freedom of flying like a bird. Additionally the track title "Flight of Fancy" was the title of an original instrumental played by a band I was in in the early 80's. The keyboard player in that band is sadly no longer with us, so I decided to try and reinvent the spirit of that time as a musical tribute to Chris.

Enjoy your Flight of Fancy :-)

This track is now part of "The Pilgrims Way Project" exploring the history and natural world of Lindisfarne.

Background

This track seemed to naturally evolve into three discrete sections with a different musical flavour to each part.

(i) Sunrise (0:00 - 0:58)
As the title suggests, it is my musical imagining of sunrise on the beach with all the grandeur of a new day dawning. A big orchestral sound and timpani seemed the way to go.

(ii) The Shoreline At Dawn (0:59 - 2:28)
Part Two has a much more muted sound as nature begins to stir with the dawn and musically this part acts as a linking section between parts one and three.

(iii) Into The Air (2:29 - 6:42)
Finally we are into the air and I wanted to give a feeling of flying by the use of rising chords sequences and a string ostinato (a recurring rhythmic or melodic pattern). I also wanted to give a nod to the original Flight of Fancy so it has a variation of the main guitar riff I played back in the early 80's, some interwoven guitar and keyboard parts and harmony with underlying jazzy drum and bass parts.

Flight Of Fancy - 2024 Remix and Remaster

Hello, wonderful friends!

I'm very happy to present to you my next collaboration with an extremely gifted Franck Charles. You can find more of his absolutely amazing cinematic and orchestral music here: @franck-charles-676082884

As always, I am immensely grateful to Franck for all his magnificent work on my piano music, making it most beautiful in all facets.

Thank you so much for your interest and time, we do hope you will enjoy this piece!

Thanks for stopping by - please enjoy what you hear! 🤗 Any time you want to look as well as listen, head over to the YouTube channel ...

Apparently, the ‘hai’ in ‘haiku’ translates to ‘joke’, ‘fun’, or ‘unusual’, which is part of the inspiration for the odd name of this venture; an evolving project nurtured by Darren Bourne, in collaboration with countless others, past and present. The ongoing obsessions of halF unusuaL are improvisation, chance and the music / non-music boundary, with the aim of (impossibly) creating sound worlds never heard before ... Thank you so much for your support 🥰
