**“Trigger warning: war in the very first minute.”** 

Zion 2024

I’m at home. Suddenly, the siren wailed. I rushed to the shelter, the walls trembled slightly, my heart pounded faster than usual, and I wanted to scream: “Enough already!” Then, out of nowhere, the rhythm of *Hatikvah* began to play in my mind. I chuckled and told myself, “This is the reality we live in.” 

I’m 54,  I cannot recall years of true peace in Zion. From my childhood, I witnessed terror attacks in Jerusalem of all kinds and forms (while being cared for by an amazing Muslim nanny from Hebron), the roar of fighter jets during the Second Lebanon War, the missiles from Iraq on Haifa and the center, countless operations and mini-wars. I even fought in the Second Lebanon War myself. And now, Yemen, Iran, and Iraq are rising against us alongside their proxies—a surreal reality in a country that has yet to define itself. 

And still, we keep living. We dance, we mourn, we argue, we love, we dream, we hope. We hear the IDF spokesperson’s announcements of “cleared for publication,” of incoming missiles, of fallen civilians. We are teetering on the edge of civil war. Our hearts race, and yet, we live—and we have hope!

I stepped out of the shelter, sat down, and composed this electronic piece that expresses what I felt here in Zion, in 2024.  
I thank Sharon Maor for hours of musical discussion, ideas and mixing.

When the Corona plague began, writing and composing music was for me an unrealized fantasy. At the beginning of the first closure I decided to take action, I learned the basics of music in a zoom class and hundreds of hours of online learning and doing that fills my soul with indescribable happiness. For half a year now, in every spare moment I have been studying, writing and trying to create and discovering each time how little my knowledge is and how much more there is to learn, and every such discovery fills me with happiness.
My dream was to take the melodies and piyyutim that I love so much and compose them with pleasant beats. The road is still long as mentioned, but it was two weeks ago, at 1 o'clock at night, when I suddenly hear the slichot emanating from the synagogue in front of my house. And I, who was a Spanish-style cantor and so fond of Slichot poems, did not remain indifferent, sat down in front of a microphone, recorded myself, and began to create on the recording. It was the first time in my life that I find myself falling apart crying during some piece of work, while hearing the powerful text thousands of times. So in the run-up to Rosh Hashanah, I am currently gathering courage, and for the first time raising the work in the process (premix) taken from the Slichot and the statement that - "My Lord is God".
Pleasant listening.
