Voyage Through Cassiopea

I wanted to exploit the sound of one of my favourite folk instruments. The hurdy-gurdy is not heard so very often in the UK. What could be better than to use a medieval instrument for a leading-edge space opera like my essay into "The Vanished Birds"?

Several SoundClouders have remarked on the hurdy-gurdy. My own passion for it started in the 1990s when I found myself in a Breton village on the day of their hurdy-gurdy festival. We marched up and down through that village behind a band of 30 or 40 hurdy-gurdy players, with the odd Breton bagpiper and bombarde-player chipping in, as the mood took them. Somewhere, I still have my field recordings of the day. The tunes were simple and very catchy.

Shadow Of The Dove

天女の舞

"Inspired by the idea of a road trip and young destructive love. I wanted to hear the excitement of the wheels down the open road and the dust cloud left behind - part chaos and rebellion; part serenity and possibility. This is a coming of age song full of optimism and potential.”

beautiful thunderous. 

All I want to get is your affection
I'm not sure I can get your attention right now, right now
You take me all the places I want to go
You make me grin when I see your hair grown out and I like that

Our love is thunderous
Our love is thunderous
It's wonderful and wanderlust
It's beautiful and thunderous
Our love is wonderful, wanderlust, beautiful thunderous

"Pack your bags" you say, you need me
Take me there in the height of summer, let me burn
I'll burn for you
Get into my old black car now
We'll scream and shout and love our way down to the bright lights
I feel free now, free now

A dear friend asked me if I wanted to set one of his poems to music. Well, I did. And this is what came out of it...

The title of the poem is “Augenblick”, which means "moment", but literally “blink of an eye”.

Augenblick (by Hans H. Hiebel)

Tender day
The eye-lid of the night
Has opened
Time
Is twinkling at us
And because everything is divided
And must be divided
We twinkle back
And death
Closes the lid


Composition, vocal, guitar and piano by Joliz.

The track wouldn't be the same without Robert S. Dean... Thank you!

Another awesome electronic collaboration with David a.k.a. @blackmarketbrains ! I love his minimal techno beats so asked him to send me one that included one of his cool old movie samples.I was inspired right away to lay down some melodic loops and even a bit of guitar.

'No Sheet Music' Artist. https://www.nosheetmusic.tv/artists/nic-evennett

"Evennett’s voice is a delicate mystery, warm and lustrous, yet fragile and crystalline – a bewitching blend of Kate Bush and Linda Perhacs, surrounded by dolorous, reverb-drenched piano and woven into broken-hearted balladry." Andee Connors, Pandora 

"Moving, delicate and introspective. As always, Nic Evennett's voice washes over the listener creating an incubated space I didn't want to leave."
Rapt.
