Name: The River - Official audio by Joy Becker
Duration: 4 min 29 s
Description: Official audio from 'The Unspoken Word' album

I wonder why I try to get back childhood feelings, anyway, I've done this in a kind of nostalgic mood. But the childhood is gone, and I should try not to miss it.
The fact is that I failed in a lot of things in my past life, but I fought, fought against my own lacks. And will continue

The synth voice pad has been tweaked with samples of my voice.

Storia di una notte d'agosto

Following the popularity of my recording of "Martynne And Hys Manne", I present a (more recent origin) traditional song, performed a capella.

My theory is that "Young Banker" is a man who digs canals for a living.

This song is a love story of sorts, a temptress who is luring in this man with her wild ways, getting him to leave his normal mundane life behind and live with her in the forest of blue. In my mind this had a fairy tale feel to it but with a darker element...  The music I feel works great with the piano and strings, giving it a great atmosphere and really fits in well with the storyline

Cat's Whiskers

the forest of blue (2 Rightly/Aine Parkes)

the 2018 was a very difficult year for me ...
understanding after so many years of having come to the end of a relationship was not easy to accept. I tried with all my strength to save something that escaped me like sand in my hands.
at the same time I poured all my interior experience into the creative act, as a source of salvation, into a cathartic act.
suspension between abyss and ecstasy ...
I was feverishly working on the realization of my first album.
project which, moreover, was interrupted due to the breakdown of my mac .. I lost several important information, such as sounds created with the help of different vst plugins .. and I still try to recover data etc .. to continue the project.
even today it is not easy for me to listen to this piece again.
it takes me back in time, and inevitably a few tears still line my face.
however, it is one of the few pieces accompanied by a text written at the time. I find it extraordinary how pain is able to take new shape through art.
here is the text to follow:

Packaged lives.

Packaged lives.


And in all our going
Without an arrival

Enjoy the trip, at least

While pretending to be tired

Packaged lives

With the heart immersed
Inside a well

Packaged lives

Looking for my place
In the world.


A place in time, with you

Packaged lives

And in all our going
Without an arrival

Packaged lives

Enjoy the trip, at least
