Duration: 5 min 23 s
Description: A musical vignette in the form of a Lullaby - A rendezvous in a dream; or perhaps dream of a rendezvous.

Beautifully played — really lovely piano performance.

No relation to the Taylor Swift song.

Last year I fell in love with someone who'd been a good friend (or so I thought) up to that point. This turned out to be a mistake and ultimately a bitter experience. It's rare for me to write music "about" anything in particular, but this composition was written around the time that everything happened with this person and is very linked to the emotions I was going through at the time. 

Movement 1 was written when I was in the thick of feeling head over heels for this person, though even then there was some frantic agitation I was feeling (a sign of things to come). PSA, love shouldn't feel like that as it turns out?

Vital Signs

Vital to mind
Whats the kind
Will it be friendly
Or of a hostile find
To be or not to be
To tilt or to absorb
Mirroring good glee
Or projecting our bad blood

Vital we see
A universe as me
Willingfully
Aww be brain of free
A vital peruse
The cosmos as we choose
Vital to know
How mind controls the show

The body a window
To the portal of conscience
Nobody of flow
Fortune teller of nonsense
Most makes no sense
The filter finds skill
Sieving the junk
Empowering the thrill

Each decision thats made
Finds a world good or bad
Precision of wisdom
In time mutes more mad
Experience honed
Meditation of mind
Less of that phone
Find more of your true kind

You are the universe
The universe is you
You do become it
Too it becomes you
Controller of entropy
When being of brave
When sanity found
Next children you save
 
Vitality found
Balanced pleasure and pain
Thoughts don't become stuck
Controlling your frame
Escape not addiction
Just love for it all
The truest affliction
Celestial enthral

This song attempts to pay homage to a side I've only learned of Albert Einstein recently enough and that is his interest in consciousness and us psychologically. Although it's obviously not what he's most famous for he seems to attribute some of his most important truths to your mindset and that the universe unfurls itself whatever way that mindset is and by the mood of what it absorbs and projects. I'm probably filling in some gaps there...

"The most important decision you will make in your life is whether you live in a hostile universe or not" Albert Einstein

I feel given the prevalence of so many conspiracy theories most likely confirming the hostilty in peoples heads and in turn those people finding that via their self honed internet algorithms, maybe a good few of us could do with learning that possible truth about our heads. His hunch is kind of confirmed by modern neuroscience and psychology with the discovery of how we actually rewire our brains via neuroplasticity
and we can effectiviely train mindsets in and out of ourselves. Most of the bias ones just make it in their the same way even if their grounding can be questionable such as conspiratorial thinking

Thanks Einstein you genius you!

The "To be or not to be" is a reference to the Shakespeare character Hamlet, where Hamlet ponders how death may be preferable to his suffering, yet for the fear of what lies beyond in the afterlife or lack of a life after death. I think the fallibility we show in the fear of death is fascinating and personally where I think we have evolved the ideas of god and heaven and hell etc... I wonder will we only truly find a proper understanding of empathy for ourselves and each-other when we transcend those fears and start living for life as opposed to generating unprovable realities to look forward to beyond the lights getting switched off permanently.

The pic is my amateur attempt at recording the aurora borealis when it was visible from Ireland earlier on this year for the first time in my life. My most interesting memory of it is what was visible by the naked eye and the phone camera was pretty noticeable and showed me clearly the spectrums we don't see around us all the time quite clearly. The phone picked up the wave lengths much more clearly then my eyes it seems...

Chapter 256 of 266

Enter the enigmatic world of "TAFFETA," a musical tapestry woven from the threads of consciousness 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.

Vignette Musicaux no. 4,  "Rendez-vous de Rêve"

Composing 50 years.  You will find every genre here.

A note about AI assist:

Regarding all my instrumentals, I composed the original works and possess the original manuscripts.  

My compositions are the source material, and for AI assist where used, I create the prompts and style instructions (which is time consuming and require hours of trial and error) at suno.com to produce the final version of the works which I feel are best. What you hear finally is at times the best of perhaps dozens of variations after much work is put in to produce the final outcome.  I try to find the right balance between what I composed originally, and what I envision is perhaps a better result with the assistance of AI.  I also aim for a realistic reproduction should live performance ever be a consideration.

For songs with Lyrics, I am the lyricist in every case, and the music is built from AI where I provide specific instructions as to style, genre, tone, key, and so forth. 

Some tracks are exceptions to the above descriptive process, and when this occurs that track itself will include how the track was developed in its description.
