🎧 Artist’s Note
There are silences that soothe, and silences that tremble.
This piece lives in the space between — where the body is still, but the soul remembers.
Composed in the wake of urgency, of care, of emotional weight, it is the echo of a moment when everything was done, yet nothing felt resolved.
Close your eyes. Let the shiver speak.

Stillness 🙏🏻

A Stillness That Shivers

Hi Everyone!
The current situation in Europe and around the world means that songs like this are still needed! But our hope lives on, and I believe that light will overcome darkness! 🍀

Thanks a lot for listening and support!
Artur

Hope for Peace 🍀

Chapter 246 of 266

Enter the enigmatic world of "TAFFETA," a musical tapestry woven from the threads of dreams and tragedy. Born from a single night of profound dreaming, this ambitious project embarks on an exploration of the human psyche through the language of instrumental music.

This is a five-year project, comprising of what will eventually end at 266 chapters, each is a standalone piece of sonic artistry, "TAFFETA" unfolds like a novel, with each composition serving as a chapter in a larger narrative. Crafted with meticulous care and creative fervor, every piece is birthed within the span of a week, capturing the essence of inspiration in its purest form.

But "TAFFETA" is more than just a collection of songs; it's a journey of the soul. Set against the backdrop of loss and longing, the project follows the story of a woman who slips into a coma following the untimely death of her husband. Through the evocative power of music, listeners are transported into her world, where emotions ebb and flow like the tides of a restless sea.

Week by week, each chapter of "TAFFETA" unfolds on SoundCloud, inviting audiences to immerse themselves in its haunting beauty. From cinematic compositions to haunting electronic soundscapes, each piece adds a layer to the intricate tapestry of sound, weaving a narrative that transcends the boundaries of language.

As listeners embark on this sonic voyage, they are invited to ponder the mysteries of existence, to confront the depths of sorrow and the resilience of the human spirit. "TAFFETA" is not merely a musical project; it's an experience—a testament to the transformative power of music to touch hearts, stir souls, and awaken the imagination.

“Nightmare” by Luke

1st song on the album, Wheels in an Elsewhere, released 28/8/25
This song sprung from the idea that I/we may have ended up here by some accident whilst on our way somewhere else.... because at times it all does seem extremely strange, misaligned and as though we're trying to make the best of living in throw-together soup without drowning.

Here we go
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go

Don't you wonder what on Earth you're doing here in the first place
Did you chance to lose your way
While heading to the other side
Where your home was
Waiting quietly among the stars
A million years or so
Not too late
But you got waylaid
Now you're here with the rest of us
What are we to do

Treading water
Round and round
Tracks don't lead you anywhere but back
Another day it's just the same oh
Here we go
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go again


Oh you asked and asked again
But never got any answer
Although the timing wasn't clear
You knew there had to be a place where you rested
Waiting quitety among the stars
It should have been right there where you left it.
Oh you were waylaid
Now you're here with the rest of us
What are we to do

Treading water
Round and round
Tracks don't lead you anywhere but back
Another day it's just the same oh
Here we go
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go again

Here we go
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go again
I just try to have fun
Don't hurt anyone
We just try to have fun
Don't hurt anyone
Here we go
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go again
Here we go
Don't you ever wonder
What on earth we're doing here

What on Earth

I dare you to listen to my recording, a One-take recording( from tonight, 29th September 2025), which I believe and hope you feel something, through mistakes which are as important as perfection, cause they give you the means and the guts to evolve. 
 Like my Soundcloud story started, I've been meaning to take you on a journey. You and I, You all.  

Enjoy!

Currently preparing this etude for a series ofconcerts I will organise. Take care you all.

A Chopin Rematch?

Lost in Celestial Haze

Cast of Characters:
Single Use & Recycled -- @user-995867230 -- Bill — acousitc rhythm and lead guitar and composition
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums and percussion
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – synth strings
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — acoustic rhythm guitar, production, mix, and mastering
The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl — vocals and lyrics

This song started as an idea Bill came up with on his acoustic guitar. Having found each other on the Cloud and enjoying each other's music, Josh and Bill decided to do a collab. Bill is a real deal guitarist, who's as prolific as he is skilled. Of course, Josh invited Eclectic Collective to the party, too.
  Shortly after doing so, he laid down a bass part to Bill's skeleton withi his four string fretless bass. Ken followed suit, and after a back and forth, completed the rhythms secion. JJ dug in next, adding the thrilling strings that highlight the high points of the melody. 
  There wasn't a whole lot of room for everyone on this, though, as Bill had the guitar parts nailed down tight. However, after sitting on the shelf for about half a year, Carl came along and added the missing piece with his raucuos vocals. Stephen also fattened up the sound a bit with his acoustic rhythm guitar.  
  Once it was in the can, we asked Stephen to work his production, mix, and mastering magic on it, too, which he came through with, as always.
  This brilliant song almost didn't see the light of day. It sat for what felt like forever, until we decided to revive it. This will not be the last collab we do with Bill, though, who was generous in not only sharing his music with us, but allowing us to do whatever we wanted with it, too. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.  

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:

Shifty shire
Ah, redistrict rot
Dividing a country for power by plot
Gerry's meandering
Not thinking of sane
What colourful friends can stop red rain?

With freedom waning
Conversation is paused
A few rich men failing
With solidarity cause
Shift the shire!
At minority we've baulked
That mind inconvenient
New red lines are chalked

State turf wars are on
Ah, redistrict rot
Dividing a country for power by plot
For the rights of the white man
We missing those slaves
So legislate oppression

Shire w/Eclectic Collective
