Third Time's A Charm - Grigg, Butts & Combstead

Males

The Call of the Hangar

When I start playing "Pale Memories Of Wisdom," I gently press the piano keys, letting each note breathe and find its place in the air. I want you to know, as a listener, that this is not just a melody; it’s like an open window into thoughts lost in time, where pale memories and moments filled with hidden meaning reside.

As the piece unfolds, you might sense a subtle sadness, but it’s a sadness filled with respect, with quietness. It’s as if each note touches a hidden corner of the soul, where we keep what once was and still hold dear. I’ve chosen chords that resonate subtly, like a whisper or a distant echo from someone who’s learned to look back without regret.

In the middle sections, you may feel a gentle warmth, hope slipping between the notes like a ray of light filtering through autumn leaves. This is the part where, even in moments of deep silence, I feel there is a future waiting to be discovered.

As the piece nears its end, I return to the main theme, softer now, as if putting a period on a story that will remain, from now on, in quietude. Maybe what I played is about me, maybe it’s about you, but I hope each note accompanies you in your own memories, your own inner journey.

Pale Memories Of Wisdom

Just like the sunrise, this song has a duality of being both peaceful and energizing. Played on my Córdoba classical guitar.

Sunrise

Initiated by Beat Battles N°88 "Ancient FM". Presumably I didn't meet the rules correctly or completely. 
Anyway, Lord Willoughby meets some Irish/Scotish pipes/reels stuff and they happily interchange performing duties. Support comes from some flamenco(!) drumming.

The draft was a little too fast to be ambient but it's a start.  Some finishing in MixCraft 10.5 Pro Studio was done before finally submitting.

Lost City - submission for Impressions Ambient 2 hosted by KaleOverlord for Itch.IO

One microphone, only acoustic instruments, a bit of reverb added on the voice. As simple as possible.

I look at the sky
I am fine inside
I found my way

I put this aside
I kept a straight line
I found my way

All the gloomy thoughts
Are now gone away
I found my way

I wonder now why
It took me so long
It is hard to say

I look at the sky
You stand on my side
I found my way

You helped me so well
It is a blessing
As I was away

All the gloomy thoughts
Are now gone away
I found my way

I wonder now why
It took me so long
It is hard to say

All the dirty stuff
I made you endure
Won’t happen again
It has to be said

I look at the sky
You stand on my side
I found my way

I put this aside
I kept a straight line
I found my way

I Found My Way
