In memoriam, the bombing of Guernica, Spain, April 26, 1937. A lamentation in music.

And in 2024, for the injured, displaced, and departed around the world as invading forces of tyranny rain down death and destruction upon innocent people.

I literally cried as I updated my old composition about the bombing of Guernica. 

Originally composed in GarageBand, I finished the first version of this song on April 26, 2013, not consciously aware that the date was the anniversary of the atrocity committed by fascists against civilians during the Spanish Civil War. I had had ambitions to create an animated short about its history and Picasso’s famous painting when I could afford the technology. So my first step was to use available resources and create the music, which I did 11 years ago. I have yet to produce the animation. Maybe someday. The cover art gives you an idea as to how I envisioned the graphics for the animated short.

This Guernica composition is my first attempt at composing neoclassical music. As a girl I would sing and hum made-up symphonies as I conducted an imaginary orchestra. I’ve got hundreds of improvised concertos, sonatas, fugues, and arias deep in my memory banks that sometimes creep into my contemporaneous music.

This week, as the anniversary of Guernica approached, I imported my old music file into my current DAW and refreshed it, adding French horn, the first instrument I played as a young student. I also added audio of propeller planes recorded live in March and April 2024. And I pushed the previous violin and cello parts to the limit, so if you hear a screeching violin or a groaning cello, it’s intentional; war gives millions of reasons to scream and wail. The composition’s 8-chord structure is repeated as if to state the obvious — we, humans, have yet to contain our violence individually and collectively. We witness and experience the horror of mass murder and war around the globe. Every. Damn. Day.

I realize my song probably isn’t going to be a favorite for listeners, not my usual chill music. But I’m also a firm believer in the idea that sunlight is the best disinfectant. With this music about Guernica and the history of 1937, I am reminded how far we’ve come, and yet, how little we’ve changed. But change we must, and I believe humanity will change for the better. The question is when.

Galaxy Universe 6 - Alex M & DjArtw2001

'perhaps, the best...'

Baby, unfortunately you have gave me
no choice but to leave you,
'cause you're crazy.
Indeed, at once it was 'maybe.'
But, now it is definitely 'no.'
Although I am sad to see you go.
And wish you all the best.
I still love you.
And always will for what you've been to me.
Eternally. 

I pushed you through your spare room window
and never left.
You made me poutine, burned your arm and had sex. Perhaps the best...

perhaps, the best

Mysteries Under The Southern Cross

Forgive Me.(Remix)

Dj.DamianR - W Imieniu Jezus (Wiersze Romy Lemańskiej)

The song tells the intimate story of a young couple sitting on the beach, holding hands and watching the sun set over the bay. As the waves roll slowly to shore, they share quiet laughter, tender touches, and deep gazes that speak louder than words. The soft evening light and warm ocean breeze set the stage for moments of growing closeness, where playful affection turns into a more passionate connection. With every touch and whispered glance, the world around them fades, leaving only their hearts, the sand beneath them, and the sun melting into the horizon.

Lyrics:

[Intro – Acoustic guitar picking, soft waves in the background]

[Verse 1]
We found a place where the waves roll slow
Feet in the sand, and nowhere to go
Your laugh’s like the tide, pulling me in
The sky’s painting stories on our skin

[Pre-Chorus]
Every little touch feels like the first time
Every heartbeat dancing in the sunshine

[Chorus]
We’re just two souls on the edge of the day
Holding on, letting the moments stay
Your hand in mine, and the world fades away
Watching the sun melt into the bay

[Instrumental 1 – Acoustic guitar strumming, gentle shaker rhythm]


---

[Verse 2]
Salt on your lips, the breeze in your hair
The warmth of your body, the way that you stare
Our knees brushing close, sparking quiet flames
Every glance you give whispers my name

[Pre-Chorus]
Every little word feels like a love song
Every second tells me I belong

[Chorus]
We’re just two souls on the edge of the day
Holding on, letting the moments stay
Your hand in mine, and the world fades away
Watching the sun melt into the bay

[Instrumental 2 – Fingerpicking guitar, soft humming harmonies]


---

[Verse 3]
The glow on your skin in the evening light
Sets the ocean on fire, makes the world feel right
Your hand on my cheek, slow as the tide
Pulls me deeper in where our hearts collide

[Pre-Chorus]
Every gentle breath tastes like forever
Every move we make, we’re moving together

[Chorus]
We’re just two souls on the edge of the day
Holding on, letting the moments stay
Your hand in mine, and the world fades away
Watching the sun melt into the bay

[Instrumental 3 – Light guitar arpeggios with warm strings]


---

[Verse 4]
Your fingers trace lines on the curve of my back
The air turns heavy, there’s no turning back
We kiss like the night might steal us away
Breathing in the heat as the colors decay

[Bridge]
No need for promises, no need for plans
Just your heart and mine in the soft white sand

[Instrumental 4 – Slow guitar strums, soft ocean ambience]


---

[Final Chorus]
We’re just two souls on the edge of the day
Holding on, letting the moments stay
Your hand in mine, and the world fades away
Watching the sun melt into the bay

[Outro]
We found a place where the waves roll slow
And I’ll never let this feeling go

[Instrumental 5 – Gentle guitar outro with fading waves]
