The Loa of Music

Claudia, Wilhem R. and Me

Last Sunbeams of Childhood

“Quiet Afterglow” is a reflective 5-track winter journey from Quiet Guitar — where frost meets warmth, and stillness meets gentle motion.
Inspired by those northern moments when the sun finally begins to turn warmer again and the promise of brighter days returns, the music drifts between solo guitar, ambient textures, downtempo beats, and subtle jazz colors.”

Each track captures a quiet transition: the cold glow of early morning, the warmth of melting frost, and the gentle afterglow that lingers long after the light fades.
A calm and intimate soundtrack for late nights, winter thoughts, and the slow return of brighter, softer days.”

AMP (Astrokid Mini Pack) – Forest Spirit Lullabies

Forest Spirit Lullabies - Track 08

Track #2 available now! My third and final album in this trilogy. With it, I bring to a close a year-long journey of remastering and rerecording music I’ve created and carried with me over the past fifteen years.

This is the final chapter of that story, and also a gentle farewell to my musical pursuits. I’ve chosen to step back from writing, recording, and creating—for a while, perhaps a long while—and I’m grateful to finish this chapter with clarity, pride, and a sense of completion.

Here's the first full track from Solstice - Minoorne Labajalg!

1. Kiigelaul (Trad. Kanepi)
