I Miss You

He saw her head bob across the tide,
And in wavering gestures, made frantic pleas.
At last, he dived into the waters;
The little boy drowned at sea.

Evæl - 04 - Lost At Sea

Footprints from where I ran away,
Gave sake enough to feel alone.
I wandered lorn acres for days,
Unable to find my way back home.

Fleeting dreams light my path,
That long for the warmth of skin again.
Though my bones may split, my spirit break,
I endure - the circle remains.

Doodoxing - Dancing In Neons

Hope riddled my mind with doubt,
And refused to believe what I'd been told;
Still, into the black, she cast me out,
And left me there to die in the cold.

Yet I brought myself from my knees,
And stood to face death again:
"Why is it that we fall?" I plead.
"Why, so we may rise once more, my friend".

This has been sitting around for a while on my laptop. I can't quite remember why I titled it that, but that's how it was labelled in my music folder, so....

This track was based around a Calendar tales story commissioned for an artist that was trying to capture a very bipolar nature of dark storytelling and childish wonder, because of this i used a high pitched arpeggio that I would normally associate with a sense of inquiry and wonder, however I decided that it sounded too structured and pieced together at first so changed this by adding a beat underneath the top-line melody to keep some sense of signature and then warped with with modulation, delay and EQ filtering to make the beat sound like walking on a boat, which is how the story has been told. To follow this further, I imported sound samples from condenser microphones left deep under oceanic water and stormy winds. This was inspired by the nautical nature of my artists' commission. The artist and I had two meetings over the course of the project so that we could see each others work progressing. through this we were able to streamline the writing process to achieve a result that fit the separate briefs we received.
