Lyrics:
let me hold you in the dying light
like a rose, like a thorn in your side
some wounds cut you to the bone
I know you’re aching but you’re not alone


why can’t  / we wake up
the hard part / behind us
all this pain / a bad dream
faded behind in a memory

I hate that / we said that
the words that I can’t take back
the darkness / we’ve been through
we’ll leave it behind in a memory


don’t make me question your love, babe
don’t give me reason for doubt
the rain’s falling over us now
don’t let the fire go out


you act like / I chose this
to hold on  / to nothing
why can’t / we break free
and leave it behind in a memory

I hate that / we said that
the words that I can’t take back
the darkness / we’ve been through
we’ll leave it behind in a memory

+++++

I touch your face 
wait for the spark 
I see your shadow 
fading slowly into dark 

I lie awake 
and I’m caught in between 
what we lost 
I’m afraid will never be 

I used to feel so free 
the way we used to be 
time got away from me 

(well if you cry out 
I’ll be there now 
I’ll be there now) 

now every night 
I lie awake in my bed 
while these dreams 
turn to stone in spite of me 

no will to fight 
and I’m trapped in my head 
all these dreams 
become haunting memories 

I used to feel so free 
the way we used to be 
time got away from me 

(well if you cry out 
I’ll be there now 
I’ll be there now)

Took Me Up

(Binaural version: only for headphones!)
First version of the piece NMW (No More Words) for soprano and electronics. Premiere in Soundstreams residency in Toronto by soprano Carla Huhtanen at Conservatory Theater.

Electronics: Núria Giménez-Comas
Images: Dan Browne
(piece for the cycle 'Espace des mots')

Text from the poem of Edgar Allan Poe 'A dream within a dream':

Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow —
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand —
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep — while I weep!
O God! Can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?

This is what happens when I jam with my self, it is self indulgent and disorganised and I think I ended up singing empathetically about refugees.

Our first single...

Cross My Heart Hope to Die will change your perceptions of art and challenge your expectations of music. CMHHTD transcends musical boundaries - the music exists as just one part of a larger project, ever evolving. At its foundation, this collective balances tangible art with striking visuals and an all encompassing soundtrack to create a total experience - each element as important as the other.

The sound system is the spark caused by the collision of producers DJ Muggs and Andrew Kline. DJ Muggs is best known as a founding member of the multi platinum rap group, Cypress Hill, as well as the producer of such hits as Ice Cube’s “Check Yo Self” and House of Pain’s “Jump Around”. The Grammy nominated producer has created remixes for U2 and Depeche Mode, and collaborated with UK trip hop artist, Tricky, on the album Juxtapose.  Andrew Kline is a founding member and main songwriter of the Los Angeles based hardcore band, Strife. With a career spanning more than 20 years, Strife is heralded to be one of the most influential and defining hardcore bands of the 90’s. As a music producer, Andrew has worked with artists over a wide range of genres and has recently added video directing to his repertoire. Muggs and Kline, though from different musical backgrounds, share a love of a dark, cinematic music and the fusion of their talents creates something you would not expect. This sound is complemented by the ethereal songstress, Brevi, who elevates the tracks with her sexy and hauntingly beautiful vocals. The attentive listener may recognize her from tracks with such musical veterans as 50 Cent, Wiz Khalifa, Xzibit, Raekwon from the Wu Tang Clan, and more - though CMHHTD puts her in a spotlight like never before. Sean Bonner adds an additional, indefinable piece to what is already a bit of an enigma. Sean is a hacker and curator who commands a noteworthy online network. With a history in both fine art and music, he helps to shape the public face and feel of this project, and his involvement is sure to blur the lines between fans and collaborators, audience and participant.

The first traditional release from Cross My Heart Hope To Die, a self titled EP, will be available April 2nd on Alpha Pup Records, The interactive art side of this collective, however, has been prolific and manifesting itself on the streets for close to a year. Unsuspecting pedestrians around the world have been enjoying and participating in this project - sometimes without even knowing it. Inconspicuous art installations and street music boxes have been hidden in such cities as Los Angeles, New York, Tokyo, Rome, Belfast, Prague, and Vienna. CMHHTD wants to manipulate the way people find music; to bring back the thrill of discovery. Something sorely needed in a digital age where we are constantly bombarded with aural stimulation. 

Upcoming gallery exhibitions and a series of videos shot all over the world make it obvious that Cross My Heart Hope To Die is much more than just another musical project. Their actual scope escapes clear definition.
