wow, phrasing is really sensitive here. Do you play live, or post-edit?
Thanks for the love on my harp track. That was tons of post--editing, and I'm doing massive additional post-editing overhaul with new mixing.
I had some notes and phrases that sounded less fluid.

I feel this full track is VERY fluid and natural. What piano sound do you use here?

This is one of my all time favorite pieces of music.. and you did it justice! great work!!!

Well, it sounds like you were able to get into Satie's mind.
That was actually a joke, in case you'd be familiar with the character I*m refering to. (not Satie)

Beautiful piano music and very gentle play ...thank you for sharing with Short Piano Solo...

WAVES

I have held the hands of loss
Felt them fade away
With wistful smiles we toss grey hours of betray 
Lead the way
Lead the way

We raise our arms above and leap down cold rocks
How pure
The joyful sands embrace
The shore longs for us and cleans decay
Lead the way
Beneath the waves

Can I imitate the waves? 
Can I recreate an anchor?
In the darkest depths of memory

Can I imitate the waves?
Can I recreate an anchor?
In the darkest depths of sea

Cross your arms across your chest
Deepest dark awaits 
Breathe in final beams of dawn 
Let them dress your heavy heart 
Lead the way
Beneath the waves of us

Can I imitate the waves?
Can I recreate an anchor?
In the darkest depths of memory

Can I imitate the waves?
Can I recreate an anchor?
In the darkest depths of sea

I will imitate the waves
I will recreate an anchor
In the darkest depths of sea

I will imitate the waves
I will recreate a fall
Into the darkest depths of sea

ft. Arnór Dan / Waves

grickam nokte i za tobom žudim htjela bih poprilično da s tobom danas bludim noć je ova tako lijepa a u meni silna zbrka kada krene naša frka otkrila sam travku u šipražju otkrila sam sebe u metežu otkrila sam lice i suzicu otkrila sam ljubav i guzicu slušala sam uobičajene pizdarije pa radije znam pobrojati zvijezde koje se gnijezde gore iznad oblaka što hitro nailaze

Pre-order 'Eulogy For Evolution 2017' on LP/CD/DL here: http://phonofile.link/eulogy-for-evolution

Icelandic composer Ólafur Arnalds reissues and revives his debut album in form of a special remastered 10th Anniversary edition titled Eulogy For Evolution 2017 — available worldwide via Erased Tapes on August 25th. 

Following its initial release in 2007 and coinciding with Ólafur’s 30th birthday, label founder Robert Raths gifted the chance for this record to shine a second time. 

'Eulogy For Evolution' is a journey from birth to death, transporting the listener through life itself. Originally written as a teenager, the record has now been restored with the help of his friends, remixed by Ólafur himself and remastered by Nils Frahm. The cover art was redesigned and enhanced by Torsten Posselt at FELD using the original photographs taken by Stuart Bailes during a trip to Ólafur’s home in Iceland in 2007.

To experience the record in the present day is not only to experience the past, but also the sheer timelessness and relevance of these compositions, and the ambition Ólafur has had from the very beginning. “Fast forward 10 years, our relationships and knowledge in sound have matured, but you can still hear this urgency in Óli’s songs that caught my ears to begin with”, states Robert Raths.

Words from Ólafur, June 2017:

 “I spent a couple of weeks in some sort of a time machine, opening up and working on 12-year-old recordings. There was noise in the microphones, some channels seemed accidentally muted, but sometimes I found myself admiring what my teenage self was capable of. It was somehow charming. Well, most of it. So I fixed the stuff that wasn’t before sending it off to Nils Frahm for remastering. 

It was an ambitious outing. When I was 18 my uncle passed away from cancer. It was the first time I had experienced the passing of someone close to me, so I dedicated my work to him. Around the same time his first grandchild was born, and was named after him. I was inspired by the joy and positivity he brought, and saw that somehow life was extended after our death. So I set out to create a solid piece of music that would take us through the circle of life. 

This work by a highly emotional teenager has been revived, matured and, I hope you’ll agree, improved by some of my favourite people in this world. I’m grateful to see it get another chance to shine and I hope you will enjoy this journey to the past.”
