This musical material is very dear to me and it came to me many years ago, in about 2002. I would walk to my bus stop to go to school or walk to the bazar always humming these few very simple chords. They were stuck in my head for quite some years. Strange that at that time I had never considered doing anything with this material. Maybe because I was very much occupied with abstract contemporary conceptual music back then. The older I become the more I appreciate clarity, simplicity and emotion in music rather than complexity and hidden abstract concepts. The time to unfold this material came 20 years after. Thomas Nakas aka @to_mi_nor brought it to life by creating a beautiful piano part, structure and arrangement. This is our second EP and there are more works to come!

The improvisations are rough, meaning that I recorded them in one take with no corrections or editing and this represents the concept of this EP. Do we have to be perfect at all? Or is it maybe more important to honestly communicate your thoughts, your feelings, regrets, nostalgia?..

Another song created in my college music class

Rite Melody Ver.1

You know, these are difficult days 
No one can tell us when they will end 
You will find a different way so… you don't surrender

You know what I was looking for 
I have searched in every place I have searched in everyone 
It's like a mission 
Take everyone's pain
It's hard work to do and I do it every day
I'm the man who cry the world

Where we are now? (Look out!) There are kids all around 
Where we are now? (What's Up?)  We're always down 
Where we are now? Each one protects everyone 
Where we are now?

You know, there are things you have to let go
or otherwise it'll haunt you for the rest of your life 
You will find a different way so… the end of frustration

You know what I was looking for 
I have searched in every place I have searched in everyone 
It's like a mission 
Take everyone's pain
It's hard work to do and I do it every day
I'm the man who cry the world

Where we are now? (Look out!) There are kids all around 
Where we are now? (What's Up?)  We're always down 
Where we are now? Each one protects everyone 
Where we are now?
