Inspired by Kazuo Ishiguro's novel "Klara and the Sun". Chamber strings, piano, guitar, harp.

And the Sun

When Tom approached me with this piano melody, the initial arrangement and the title to which he hoped I’d add lyrics and vocals, I thought it was almost unnecessary as the piece already said everything required. Shortly afterwards, Jussi had added sublime guitar which offered a hopeful balance in the mood. Knowing what Tom was referring to without discussing it openly I wrote these words from a similar position of experience. I contrasted the first verse of a woman at her peak with the second verse of a woman in decline to heighten the emotion. I found that the spoken word approach allowed more emotion to flow from both the music and the words. Tom had the great idea to ask Hidefumi to complete the song with a phenomenal solo. Thank you to everyone who helped make this come together, and a very special thanks to all of you for listening.

She knows just what it feels like now.
I think she’s losing it, I think she’s losing it. 
When she is almost ready, 
She will lose her reserve 
And her inhibition too.
Then she’ll lose herself in herself and then she’ll be free,
To be what she wants, what she wants to be.

She knows not who she feels like now.
I know she’s losing it, I know she’s losing it. 
As if she's gone already, 
She has lost her reserve 
And her inhibition too.
Already lost herself in herself and now she’s elsewhere,
Knows not what she wants, nor who she used to be.

She's Losing It - Tom Régnier/Jussi Welin/Mark J Bennett/Boon-Suzuki

Close your eyes and let the ivory keys transport you to a world of dreams. "Orkhan Aliyev - You and Me In My Dreams" is a tender piano solo that paints a sonic portrait of love and longing. Gentle melodies dance amongst delicate chords, evoking a sense of intimacy and shared secrets whispered in the moonlight. Escape the ordinary and slip into a realm where imagination and reality intertwine, all painted with the soul-stirring beauty of a piano and duduk.

Blue Captain

This is about a lonely doll in a box hidden far away in the attic.  She is dusty and stashed away in the eaves. Her dress is for a princess or a lady, to the manor born.  She has slippers for dancing and lacy petticoats that gently flow with each pirouette.  When the clock chimes in, as dawn breaks, she magically appears.  Ahhhh, there she is... dancing to music in her ear just as the light streams in through the cracks, like a spotlight.  She performs her dance until the light dims, and the music in her ear is silenced.  Then, back in the box she goes, dreaming of her next dance in the spotlight!

Doll in a Box

It was not our goal to make just a “cover” song of an exceptional milestone in original performed by the legendary Ann Clark❤️ by trying to get the sound as close as possible to it. 

Moreover we wanted to create from the very begin an own version of the original spirit, that we tried to capture and transform as good as possible (for us) 

Arrangement by #SoulCity with lend lyrics from the song #SleeperInMetropolis by the legendary #AnnClark #Synthrock #Alternative #Synthwave #PostPunk #ProgressiveRock #Indie #80s  #LoveForTheMusic
