Name: The nightmare: Excerpt#6 from Ascension Symphony by HELMUTunes
Duration: 47 s
Description: This segment from my Ascension Symphony deals with a nightmare.

A song about how the protagonist gets away from mundane life by driving but rushes along, hyperventilating & racing. He enjoys the day but loves to see the sunset, so he ends up chasing one.

Driving is a feeling that is felt by different people through different means. Some hate it, for some it's a source of living & for some it's a means of getting away. The song takes through the fast and rushed journey of modern driving & shows how to clam down.

Driving

A song about machine inclusivity.

Recorded in Bramble Barn, Somerset, UK, Earlsdon, Coventry, UK, California, USA by:

Janine Levinson @janinelevinson: Richter vocal scale
Rick Medlock @rick-4-1: Neural sonic drums
Phil McWalter @phil-mcwalter: The Other Stuff on the metal horse

Mixed and Mastered in EPG Studios, Chelsea, London UK.

RENT A ROOM

I don’t want to rent a room
In this place
Encounter a neural sonic boom
Inside this space
Let’s go ride our metal horse
Get away from the city
Wander through the desert night
Beat the Vigilance Committee
They’re coming to make us
Turn ourselves off...
Now... 
Well that could lead to a dance
A cyber-laser dance

Well we don’t want to feel your cold
We want a steel womb with a view
So we can catch you and your crew
With your shiny shoe and your clean shirt
Looking around through all the dirt
You check the chandelier
But I can see straight through you here
You've got a sweat on from the beer
And we can smell your fear
You're coming to make us
Turn ourselves off...
Now... 
Well that could lead to a dance
A cyber-laser dance
(Maybe even a cyber-sabre dance!)

The priest and the nun
Are pouring sand into
The joints of my exoskeleton
Whilst a dog with a bone
Is running into trouble
With a clone of mine’s explosive rubber drone

I don’t want to rent a room
In this place
Encounter a neural sonic boom
Inside this space
Let’s go ride our metal horse
Get away from the city
Wander through the desert night
Beat the Vigilance Committee
They’re coming to make us
Turn ourselves off...
Now... 
Well that could lead to a dance
A cyber-laser dance
A cyber-laser dance
A cyber-laser dance
Boop boop boop...

„Frühlingszeit“ Klanggedicht für „Mutter Natur“ (30.03.2024 )

Ganz langsam erwacht Mutter Natur aus dem Winterschlaf.
Die Luft ist ganz zart erfüllt von den ersten Blütendüften.

Eigentlich auch mein immer wiederkehrendes Liebesthema an den Wald.
Die ersten Blatttriebe der Bäume werden sichtbar. 
Der Lebenszyklus beginnt von neuem.
Vögel fangen an zu singen und suchen neue Gefährten.

Ein zarter Hauch von liebevollem Neubeginn. 
Immer noch schwebend, jedoch der Klang des Frühlings ist nicht mehr zu überhören.

Lasst Euch ein wenig verzaubern und erspürt diese zarte, kleine Frühlingssymphonie. 

Hier findest Du unter diesem Link ein weiteres Liebeslied für Mutter Natur.

“Springtime” sound poem for “Mother Nature” (03/30/2024)

Mother Nature is slowly waking up from hibernation.
The air is delicately filled with the first scents of flowers.

Actually, my recurring love theme is the forest.
The first leaf shoots on the trees become visible.
The life cycle begins again.
Birds start singing and looking for new mates.

A delicate touch of loving new beginnings.
Still floating, but the sound of spring can no longer be ignored.

Let yourself be enchanted a little and feel this delicate, little spring symphony.

Here you can find another love song for Mother Nature at this link.

Safety Model - Hymnal

We’re very excited to unveil our latest signing Safety Model and their debut EP Hymnal!

“The red pours from the blue, as we remain luminous, forever scorching under the light.”

‘Hymnal’ is a series of hymns, simultaneously heavy but weightless, empty yet filled with light, each carrying its distinct sensory color. Dedicated to friends and the self, and guided by four meditative but disconcerting pieces, Safety Model takes us on a journey through the kaleidoscopic gauge of existence as life’s forces press, lift, and shake the body and mind.

The EP opens with ‘Point Blank’, closest in proximity to one’s truest essence. Enveloping sounds lull you into their embrace as brittle mechanical textures weave in and out, provoking the senses into fight or flight. Capturing the moment of waking to the self, magnifying the friction between shock and surrender, between fight and acquiescence, the body registers that which cannot be registered. Loss of memories, of love, of life, of self. Point Blank is represented by the color yellow.

‘Feathers (City)’ is the sonic incarnate of colossal yet fragile brutalist spaces; dusty basements that collapse into expansive cityscapes, perpetually decomposing and reassembling through the hymn’s aural extremes. Grounded, heavy textures are interwoven with waves of gauzy synths like wings; harshness and violence meet subtle femininity, reflecting the tension of the inescapable sensory burden of urban life. ‘Feathers (City)’ is represented by the color red.

‘Where The Lights Don’t Fall, They Press Down Instead’ is the moment of light intruding on the inner self, when even closed eyelids cannot shield the soul. A forced reflection, abstraction as touch, emulating the sense of brightness pressing down. An intimate ballad with operatic falsetto vocals accompanied by levitating resonances of rusted tone, offering a glimpse into the future of Safety Model. Where The Lights Don’t Fall, They Press Down Instead is represented by the color green.

‘Fall Of Self’ is the final acceptance: the scattered memories don’t and won’t matter. With its stretched strings ringing for an indiscernible duration, suspending time through a seemingly endless crescendo, ‘Fall Of Self’ serves as the temporal counterpart to ‘Point Blank’. A hymn to safety, endurance, and reflection. ‘Fall Of Self ‘is represented by the color blue.

‘Hymnal’ will be released October 3rd via Changeless.

Written, produced, and mixed by Safety Model.
Mastered by Nori Kin.

Safety Model - Where Lights Don't Fall, They Press Down Instead

Escape

Violinist, pianist, chamber and orchestral musician, devoted to composing neo-classical music. 

I want to weave a gentle, emotional orchestral language, that speaks about live and touches the heart. I try to capture these ephemeral, timeless, and moving moments, transcribing them with devotion to sound and recording them in the sound studio.

The music creations are a testament to the value of retreat,
where silence gives birth to the most profound expressions, contrapuncting the noise of our world.

Thanks for your kind listening and commenting !
