Forever (Sessions With Steve)

Here's my take on this Yanni's masterpiece. I've changed the original arrange in some sections to differ slightly, improvisations during the recording sessions are always full of surprises. I've added some subtle strings as an essence of Yanni's original version, no intention to copy it anyway. It wouldn't be an appropriate approach to this project, I think. It is strangely satisfying to dive into a genius mind to discover what is moving the gears inside. Yanni as a composer seems to be simple and minimalistic, but there are some quite complex twists in his compositions...

The End Of August by Yanni - piano remake

Once Upon A Dream

Brass, drums, reverb. Anything more? Maybe a bit of a madness. I think I need to produce track like this from time to time, to release tension. Let the darkness do its thing so the light can take over next time.

Everything is Inside Us

Inspired by visions of a dirt road, grass, trees, and wilderness on both sides, I head into a medieval town of swords, magic, and adventure. As the dream fades and I am brought back into reality, a slightly melancholic sound takes over, a happy yet sad goodbye to a dreamy place, hoping to see it once more.
