in your silence

A Perfect Day
Valhjim


I wake up to birdsong and rose skies—
the breeze cool, the day still opening
like a flower. 

The dew of dawn still in the air, and 
the scent of last night's rain on damp earth
and the bark of trees. The sun shows 

a friendly face, indisposed apparently
to scorch the world today. 

I  take a sip of coffee and play a sequence
of notes on the keyboard.—a perfect melody
to blossom like the day. 

All is well. I am content.

A Perfect Day - Valhjim w/Martin Miers

lost my marbles

Welcome to my latest trilogy based on the famous children’s novel, ‘Alice in Wonderland.’ I’m a complete aficionado when it comes to film posters and album covers, so I hope you won’t mind me using a bit of poetic license introducing this series of tracks.

Part One:
Our story begins in the tiny Village of Daresbury in Cheshire, just off the busy A558. The village has a pub called the ‘Ring O’ Bells,’ which was once the courthouse. More famously, it boasts the church of All Saints, built in the 12th century. Two windows in the church give a clue to a famous inhabitant. They depict characters from the book, ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.’ The book’s author, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was born here on 27th January 1832. Charles later became known in the literary world under the pseudonym of Lewis Carroll. The gentle rolling hills nearby and the white rabbits that occupied them were thought to have inspired his first thoughts for the legendary novel.
Trivia: Lewis Carroll's pen name was derived from his real name, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. He used a clever wordplay by Latinising "Charles Lutwidge" to "Carolus Ludovicus," then translating it back into English, resulting in "Lewis Carroll."
Part 2 of his story follows on the next track…

Dancing Horses

All lit up across the sky
Dancing horses charge on by
Fields of dreams are moving on
Took your life and moved aside

And did you care what you had done
And did you think what you would do
And did you want to shatter this
And did you want to end this love
And at what cost or what expense
You have the means to end it all
Get what you want at any cost
And make a wish and all is yours

All is yours across this land
No one else should spoil you
Sanitised and swept aside
Crushed a dream a better life

And you can reach for the stars
And you can buy all the stars
And you can shoot for the stars
And you can ride on a star

This love of mine has gone.
This life of mine has gone
Dancing horses shine a light
Dancing horses pulled apart
Dancing horses, notice them
Suit yourself and no one else

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.
