“Selkirk”
Words & Music by Rick Sparkes

Ear to the ground, bound by your lover’s words
Pouring down distilling the eau de vie
We all unwind end over end over the end
You quoted Derrida, I took my leave
Before falling apart.

Museum glass and the time it took ol’ Selkirk to fold
Tautology, the brightest colours mark the eye
Jump the bridge, swinging in a summer’s daze
Gloat over it, always going back to the market for more.

I search you out, we always find a way around
Mercy me, springtime keeping it all afloat
Manhattan ‘92 the Will Rogers Follies featuring
Keith Carradine and the 5-7-5 love haikus I wrote

Selkirk

{Gist (noun) - the substance or essence of a part of speech or text.} The debut album from Gerson is a collection of 9 songs, each with its own unsavory, unreliable, or unfortunate narrator. Weaving through multiple musical genres, Gist explores the anxieties of young adulthood with both sincerity and ironic detachment.

Wired on Wonder – Bold, Poetic, and Full of Energy
Experience Paul Numi’s Finest Album YetWired on Wonder marks Paul’s third release in five years — a remarkable achievement for an artist who proudly remains 100% indie, yet surrounded by a world-class team. 

Paul: “Most bands find their voice in their twenties. I didn’t find mine until I was past sixty. But hey—better late than never, and certainly better than never at all.” 

The album is a vibrant mix: 
•	High-energy tracks steeped in the great British tradition, powered by driving bass and drums, layered with guitars and soaring keyboard riffs. 
•	Introspective songs like A Roving Still (Paul’s answer to Lord Byron’s So We’ll Go No More a Roving), What We Believe featuring a Nigerian gospel choir, and Guide Me Towards the Light with its psalm-like lyricism. 
Paul’s lyrics are poetic, often edged with irony, placing him among the very best English-language lyricists in Belgium. 

Behind the sound lies obsessive dedication: “We worked endless days and nights, being ruthless about what stayed and what had to go. We were purists—monks had nothing on us. From the Rickenbacker bass and vintage Telecaster to Fender amps and Ampex tape mastering. Every detail mattered. I had a super team, just as devoted to making a truly great album as I was. Kudos to them!” 

FROM THE 80S TO TODAY – PASSION NEVER FADES 

Paul was very active in the early 80s, performing with his band Angry Voices and supporting acts such as U2, Echo & The Bunnymen, TC Matic, and others. Life then took another turn: alongside being an artist, Paul also built a career as a top business executive. Traveling the world for work, he never left behind his passion for music, often taking his guitar on the road and playing gigs. Over the years, Numi performed in New York, Boston, Moscow, Beirut, and Warsaw, while also giving radio interviews in places as varied as Switzerland, Morocco, Saudi Arabia and the UK. In 2020, Paul Numi made his official return to music with the release of the album Chimera, followed by Parallel Lives in 2021. His music has since reached a global audience, with over 700,000 streams and views to-date.

Sto affogando nel Blu

Adrity Peruano

Una forma de ser feliz” es una balada-rock nacida de una historia real. La escribí entre guitarras, silencios y noches que pesan, grabando con instrumentos virtuales pero con un alma totalmente humana.
Es una canción dedicada a un amor imposible, a esas personas que pasan por tu vida y dejan una marca que no se borra… incluso cuando ya no están.

Habla de la culpa de no decir “hola” cuando todavía había tiempo, del arrepentimiento que llega tarde, de la muerte que corta caminos, y de la prisión mental que se queda después: esa que te roba la paz, que te encierra solo con tus pensamientos, que te obliga a revivir lo que pudo ser.


historias que duelen… y aun así siguen buscando una chispa de luz. 🇪🇬 نسخة قصيرة وشعرية

أغنيتي "Una forma de ser feliz" وُلدت من جرحٍ حقيقي.
من حبٍّ لم يكتمل، وكلمة لم تُقَل، وقلبٍ تأخر في الوصول.

هي حكاية عن شخصٍ رحل قبل أن نتصافح،
وعن سجنٍ في داخلي ما زال يسرق النوم والراحة.

بين الجيتار والصمت، وجدت نفسي أبحث عن ضوءٍ صغير…
عن طريقة لأكون سعيدًا، ولو للحظة.

هذه الأغنية لمن يحبّ بصمت،
ولمن فقد،
ولمن ما زال يبحث عن سلامٍ يداوي القلب.

una forma de ser feliz

Dér Hvor Vi Falder er en sang om at turde stå i det, der gør ondt. Om at blive, når alt i én vil flygte. Der hvor revnerne viser sig, facaderne falder, og ærligheden brænder klarere end frygten. Et sted mellem faldet og erkendelsen – dér opstår styrken.

Tekst:

Jeg frygter slet ikke de revner, jeg ser,
og vil heller mærke end skjule mig mer’.
Men mange forsvinder, når sandheden er klar,
jeg vælger at blive, hvor drømmene var.

Jeg bli’r i et lys, hvor facader går ned,
og finder en styrke i nøgen ærlighed.
De fleste vil løbe, når livet er vendt,
jeg vælger at blive, hvor flammen er tændt.

Kun dér hvor vi falder, giver livet et svar,
her kan vi finde, hvad meningen var.
Når ankeret slipper, og de driver bort,
så bliver jeg stående, hvor livet slår hårdt.

Kun dér hvor vi falder, giver livet et svar,
her kan vi finde, hvad meningen var.
Når ankeret slipper, og de driver bort,
så bliver jeg stående, hvor livet slår hårdt.
