That mechanical toad (???) sound at 25 seconds takes me right into the finale of Philip K. Dick's /Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep/.  :-D

love the subtle striking piano and quietness of it all, cool atmospheric found sounds and sonic manipulations, real thoughtful work!

Healing within

Star Tale - Lyrics by Ren Faye

Echo voices... forest spirits...

I can't describe the feeling,
That you are here again...
We looked upon our kingdom, and what was our to reign
You always stood beside me,
As mighty as the bear...
And now, you have returned
To breathe the winter air...

I know, 
You bring the seasons
And I the freezing rain
I've seen so many visions but they are all the same

I know, 
You are the valley,
You guide me where I go
and I seek my shelter,
From battles in the snow

I know, 
In my heart...
That you, are beside...
I know,
In this heart,
That I can lead my tribe

I know,
I bring the journey,
Your wisdom teaches me
When we, come to gather
Under branches of our tree

I know, 
In my heart,
That you, stand beside
I know,
In this heart
That I will lead my tribe

I know you bring the glory,
The crystal dazzles me
I know, I see your spirit
and magic follows me

I see, 
In my heart
A castle made of frost,
I know, you will lead me
When it seems all is lost...

Echo voices... forest spirits...

End.

Star Tale - GMaks ft. Ren Faye

In September the trees shake their knees,
This is the sound
As they fall to the ground.

"I aimed immediately ,when I saw this Disquiet Junto prompt, to finish it quickly, using found sounds and light synthesizer treatments. I was inspired instantly about this upcoming aural 'quilt', or 'Collage'; Marc's words were My mantra:

'Create a 'musical collage' -- however one might define it, likely -- using the equivalent of cut and paste. When doing so, consider the sense in which your collage might itself become part of a subsequent collage.' [~ Marc Weidenbaum ( https://soundcloud.com/disquiet )]

What won'drous words. I set out to find something I could fragment into little pieces, juxtapose, and sew together, like a quilt, a proper piece of music in a perfect little 'square tidbit' that could be infixed into a larger aural tapestry, and be pixelized, and fragmentory, and, thus, stand on its own without being noticed.

I mangled a very lengthy piano improvisation, and kept but seconds of the original, chopped them up, and juxtaposed them against what a Friend, Prof. Oddfellow [ https://soundcloud.com/prof-oddfellow ], has called 'a mechanical toad.'

I then added synthesizer treatments."

~ Michael

"Overcast + Undertaken" [disquiet0478] - Michael Ash Sharbaugh

POP | SPACEROCK | VAPORTRAP | TRIP-HOP
AMBIENT | EXPERIMENTAL

the PERSON, the SOUND : Since 1985, Philadelphia-born Michael has composed and released hundreds of audio recordings, and published dozens of [erotic] poems.

His 'sonic-sojourn' began suddenly when he was just a teen -- feet splashing rhythmically through puddles leftover by a seaside rainstorm. Having just parted ways with the then-love-of-his-life, Michael composed his first ballad [and first song] ever -- "Tina." He rushed to his beach-side home to record his visceral 'awakening' on a tiny micro-cassette recorder, and vowed -- from that day on -- to create art for the rest of his life.

He began zealously amassing used music equipment, and had built a modest home recording studio by age seventeen, all the while crafting simple pop, ambient, and experimental works that HE had wanted to listen to -- that HE had wanted to hear, affectionately emulating the works of his then-idols, Duran Duran and Brian Eno.

Now, decades later, he has relocated to a small village outside Atlanta, Georgia, and continues to voraciously attend to his dream as a young, heartbroken boy -- to create and release music that he, himself, wants to hear.

Although no longer sequestered to pop and ambient musics, Michael's signature sound has merged the two, having integrated the R&B, hiphop, and psychedelia he has grown to love as a older gent -- having absorbed the edgy rhythms and dreamy soul of the southern United States (Atlanta and Miami).

Michael still puts forth ample amounts af ambient musics, but his recent 'sound' hovers elsewhere -- somewhere amidst the genres of vaportrap, spacerock, and trip-hop.
