Lost languages are like bones buried beneath shifting sand—remnants of once-living voices that shaped worlds now unreachable.

An Alphabet Drowned in Milk

Chapter 244 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.

A Lazy Sunday Afternoon

reflections on shadows

A gentle drift through sky and sea. This 432Hz composition blends airy ambient textures with the soft rhythm of ocean breeze and cloud light, creating a peaceful space for reflection and calm. ‘Cloud Sound Shining’ is perfect for moments of stillness and inner clarity

432HZ CLOUD SOUND

Lots of subtle guitar layers on this.

Downloadable

A kaleidoscope sea,
waves folding into triangles and circles
as if the ocean had learned to play with blocks. 
Above, the sun unravels into bright shards, 
scattering like toys in the sky. 
It feels joyful, almost innocent. 
Yet every color carries a hush. 
Summer is only tidying up its games before slipping quietly away.

“Good stuff mister! You've got the jansch/drake thing going on there. Great, authentic guitar sound on 'Searching for Atlantis'. Keep rockin Best Nick H ”
- Nick Harper, Singer/songwriter guitarist extraordinaire

Johnson, your music is so real and transparent, authentic and truly from the heart..you remind us of the simple things the buried feelings of just living that the modern fast paced "so called life" seems to ignore completely, thank you for sharing your music with the world :D "”
- Hidden Mountain

Just wonderful, sweet and charming songs you're writing here Johnson..I love the simplicity and elegance of songs like "no return" and "all we have is one another"..you got the cool, ease with the natural storytelling style of writers like Chris Difford or Paul Heaton..romantic and rich and very tightly crafted. Great work!!”
- Mike White, Mike White Presents 

Not too long back I met a fellow musician, a thoroughly nice chap. His name is Johnson Ramm. You know the feeling you get when you've found something new and original and you want to keep it to yourself but you can't help it and you have to shout it from the rooftops and say "This guy is amazing!!" This is one of those moments. I was asked to do some production work not long ago for his E.P. His style? Folk. Really good hearty folk. Lyrically, this guy is a genius. He writes the kind of words you wish you had thought of about 5 minutes previous! His attitude towards his work as an artist was such an inspiration as he let me guide him on certain aspects, it was me that ended up learning so much from that day. I couldn't really tell you who he sounds like, as he has a raw and unfinished quality to his voice, it just fits into place with the atmosphere that he creates from his lyrics and melodies.”
