The Sleeper Awakes 

Ben Chatwin - Mirroring

In the tender quiet of dawn, ‘Dreams Are Real’ captures the feeling of wandering in a dream, where love unfolds softly with each step. A delicate piano, the sound of her footsteps, echoing the mystery of meeting between worlds. Reality and reverie blur. A love that feels as boundless as the dream itself.

Lyrics

Find my way, in the light of day
Lost in thoughts, I'm here to stay
Quiet morning, you called my name
My heart's aflame, in love's sweet game
in love's sweet game
in love's sweet game
in love's sweet game 

In our dreams we met, where stars aligned,
In your presence, our hearts combined,
With closed eyes, we found our way,
In our dream, where love held sway where love held sway
where love held sway

Come close to me, let's be carefree,
Now I'm certain, dreams are real, 
And our live's the mystery.
The mystery
The mystery
The mystery
The mystery

Branches came into being during a long time planned project between Tui (Orla Wren) and Cyril Secq (member of the band Astrïd). Having worked together when Cyril contributed guitar to the Orla Wren’s previous albums the idea then formed to do something further and even more collaborative. At the same time, Cyril had recorded many guitar parts, as a ‘solo’ project, that had never been released. And they were the basis, the bones for Orla to work, completely free.

It’s a duet between acoustic strings and processing, field recordings, edits and organic arrangements. This music is steadily ramifies, growing out of itself like a wild tree. The tunes woven together and untwine again as a branches shaken by the wind. It sounds focused, calm and distinct. Although everything has been done in distant places (France and Scotland) the result sounds like two musicians experimenting in the same room, sharing their background and culture.

The beautiful photographic work from Spanish born Nieves Mingueza brought the whole project together in the form of these two very special editions of Branches.
