"The Thing With The Beast" is a deep and introspective song that explores themes of inner struggle and personal transformation. The lyrics are written by Emil Cioran, a Romanian philosopher and essayist, known for his pessimistic and often deeply philosophical writings on the human condition. 

His works have influenced many contemporary thinkers and continue to be a source of profound insight into the complexities of life. The English translation of the lyrics was entirely made by me.

Through this piece, I have strived to capture the melancholic and introspective essence of Cioran's words, blending an electro-pop musical style with reggae influences. The song's atmosphere is dreamy and contemplative, featuring C# major tones that alternate with its relative minor key, A# minor, adding depth to the emotional landscape.

Musically, the song has a medium pace, perfect for emphasizing reflection and melancholy. The instrumentation is predominantly electronic, with vocal presence featuring a Caribbean accent that provides a strong and immersive atmosphere. This adds emotional depth, amplifying the intensity of the lyrics and creating a unique dynamic that underscores the theme of duality: the man and the beast within. The song creates powerful images, such as the buffalo roaring inside the poet and performer, symbolizing the primal and crude forces within the human being.

All of this unfolds in a sad yet romantic atmosphere, evoking a sense of nostalgia and a longing for liberation.

The Thing With The Beast

This is a genre called Talking Rock. I love '70s West Coast American music. It's the music that inspires me. I also like Ennio Morricone's style. Then I mix it all up. I play electric, classical, acoustic, and 12-chord guitar. I also play bass.

Nibriell is the pseudonym under which I sign my musical and literary works. I was born in Romania, a beautiful country in Eastern Europe, but I also live in the UK. For personal reasons and symbolism, the pseudonym is inspired by the names Saint Nicholas (Ni) and Archangel Gabriel (briell). 

     As for my musical activity, I do not define myself through traditional terms such as artist, musician, or composer, but rather as a music creator. This term is much more suitable for my musical activity. I have only one regret: not being born with the talent to sing or possess a musical voice. 

     However, my passions for music and literature have been cultivated with interest throughout my life. With the advent of AI in our lives, it has been very successful in producing high-quality vocalizations, which instantly encouraged me to start creating melodies. 

     Therefore, in my creative workshop, DAW software, music editing, and AI technology are the tools through which I express my vision. By using AI to generate the distinctive voice of my pieces and recreate the sounds specific to traditional or archaic instruments, I bring to life the stories I present to you. 

     My entire creation, from one end to the other, tries to tell a story, whatever it may be. From myths and legends worldwide to stories I create, they are dressed in melodies and harmonies that exceed language and culture, touching a universal chord of human emotion. With each composition, my goal is to open a window to imaginary worlds, inviting the listener to explore ancestral myths, personal narratives, or those already existing worldwide. 

     Using a mix of modern sounds and traditional elements, I aim to create a bridge between the past and the present, between the real and the fantastic, offering the listener an auditory experience and an emotional and spiritual journey.

     So, Nibriell is the pseudonym that unites all these creative sides and expresses the desire to create and the belief that art, in all its forms, is a vehicle for understanding, compassion, and connection among people, regardless of their origins or borders. This is the path I have chosen to follow, one in which every note and word contributes to creating a more extensive work of all humanity, an ode to the beauty and complexity of life.

     Although AI plays an essential and decisive role in my work, it does not define its direction or quality at all. I entirely write the texts and melodic lines, and the voice generated by it is the product of my strict vision and supervision.

Auteur-compositeur de chansons françaises qui n'attendent que de bons interprètes. 
Après des études au conservatoire et musicologie à la Sorbonne, j'ai enseigné l'éducation musicale à des élèves en école élémentaire de 1982 à 2021.

Dès 1989, alors que je découvrais la MAO, j'ai commencé à faire des centaines d'arrangements de chansons pour enfants ou adultes dans tous les styles pour les faire chanter. Cette solide expérience m'a amené dans un premier temps à composer des chansons pour mes élèves. Puis, je me suis lancé dans un répertoire pour adultes. 132 chansons à ce jour !

Mon répertoire va de la danse traditionnelle française (La bourrée du maumarié), à l’EDM (La tête dans les étoiles) en passant par la musique classique (Double concerto pour violon, violoncelle et orchestre à cordes) et la chanson française, le gros du panier, avec le plus souvent cette pointe d’humour qui fait tant défaut aujourd’hui dans beaucoup de chansons, (ce qui est étonnant quand on voit autant d’humoristes fleurir aux six points de l’Hexagone…)

Même si certains apprécient ma façon de chanter, mes chansons sont faites pour de vrais interprètes qui aiment monter sur scène.

Né en 1961 à Paris.

Author-composer and performer... by default of French songs. 
After studying at the Conservatoire and musicology at the Sorbonne, I taught music education to elementary school pupils from 1982 to 2021.

As early as 1989, when I was just discovering computer-assisted music, I started making hundreds of arrangements of songs for children and adults in all styles, to get them to sing along. This solid experience initially led me to compose songs for my students. Then I started working on a repertoire for adults. 132 songs to date!

My repertoire ranges from traditional French dance (La bourrée du maumarié), to EDM (La tête dans les étoiles), classical music (Double concerto for violin, cello and string orchestra) and French chanson, the mainstay of my repertoire, most often with that touch of humor so lacking in so many songs these days (which is astonishing when you see so many humorists flourishing at the six points of the Hexagon...).

Even if some people like the way I sing, my songs are made for real performers who like to get up on stage.

Born in 1961 in Paris.

Let me tell you a little bit of my story, it will give you an idea of who I am and why I'm here.

My name is Terry and I'm a welder...or rather a web developer...or a composer...
At the age of 17 I worked as a welder in a shipyard for a few years while learning to play the piano.

Then I decided to change jobs and become a self-taught web developer, because I knew I'd earn more money and still have energy for my second job, music. With this money I was able to equip and train myself to reach my ultimate goal, the profession of composer!

Today I'm here to begin this new adventure, perhaps with you? This is my chance to tell you about what I offer:

-Pop, electronic or classical music for your visual creations
-Tailor-made instrumentals with a real understanding of the emotions you want to convey 
-Taking the time to achieve a truly satisfying result (I work with a professional mix/mastering engineer)
-Sound design for drums, synths or anything else that produces a sound.

 Finally, what really touches people is music that tells a story that speaks to you with authenticity. And authenticity is what makes me the right person for you.

We are the music makers. We are the dreamers of dreams.





Every time I am sincerely surprised that the music came together again, that it worked. I don’t often write music , to enjoy nature of this wonderful process.
All tracks AI free!
Big thanks to SOUNDCLOUD for the wonderful opportunity to be heard and to my invisible friends, musicians and composers, whom I hear well thanks to SC
As an architect, I am interested in the question - if architecture is frozen music, then music is melted architecture? In this case I'm the freezer unplugged.🤗
The iceberg from the freezer is still dripping, but over time it can leak heavily...
My musical education is modest - 4th grade piano in childhood at the cultural center named Mikhail Kalinin in Kharkov + SC now
