Landscapes of Japan (The genesis)

Lyrics 

Wheat fields shine like golden sheets
In your mind you still believe
You’re different from all the grain
Only you can feel this certain pain

Window’s open to your street
You hear the gentle sigh of the breeze
No traffic there to clutter up
What once was there to shut you up

Free from the ego
Free from the pride
It’s simple to just be alive

Free from the ego 
Free from the pride
It’s simple to just be alive

In the mirror you sustain 
A glaring at your simple frame
This wishing for a better you
Is all that you seem to do

Free from the ego
Free from the pride
It’s simple to just be alive

Free from the ego 
Free from the pride
It’s simple to just be alive

Just be alive
Don’t bite the apple

You are just as meant to be 
A perfect mix of biology
There’s no peace you can’t achieve
You just have to change what you see

Free from the ego
Free from the pride
Simple just to be alive

saving up the things

This is a song originally written and performed by Soundcloud artist 'A Girl From Wonder' (@user-712848711), whose music I've admired for a while. I've loved this one since the first time I heard it, and aways wanted to try some sort of collaboration, but it's hard to mess with the stark simple beauty of the original. But here's my attempt to add some dashes of colour to her voice and guitar strumming, adding instruments like upright bass, organ, banjo, cello, and percussion. The banjo parts are mainly a bunch of sound samples I found and cut up and arranged to fit in with the melody I wanted to play (wish I could just play banjo instead!). I tried to keep her evocative voice the main focal point, and we're both pretty happy with how this turned out. 

Thanks again Brittany for letting me work with your song, it's pretty special. 

Here's the original, and I encourage folks to check it out as well as other great tunes on her page. Thanks for listening!

Wild Walking (collab with A Girl From Wonder)

Happy new year with 2025-
This track is the first of my new style of music-I hope you like it

Its my new beginning

I wrote this song in Summer 2023. It's a joyful get-up-the-morning and enjoy the day song.
I recorded most of the instruments in a tent at a festival on a very very hot day, where I was storytelling.

Fly with the Day like a runaway Kite

Welcome to my original composition where I play the piano, cello, bassoon and flute.

Together, the piano, cello, bassoon, and flute embarked on an enchanting journey, their interwoven voices creating a serene atmosphere that invited each soul in the room to turn inward, to ponder the unspoken pressures of conformity and the quiet, persistent longing to be seen, truly seen, for the unique melody that resided to "Be Just Like Me".
