Winter Wonderland

I made this song thinking about how unimportant material things are and how little they mean in our lives.

There Is No Material World

Life's Sunlight

GORGO & TANGO

Giorni trascorsi rivolto nel fango
il freddo scalfisce la pelle vissuta
la sua voce affonda nell'indifferenza
ritenuto sporco, quasi un esser di troppo

La vita che sfugge velocemente
prima di gustarne a fondo il piacere
un colpo di polso, baglior di pugnale
dichiarano Gorgo
martire maiale

Se c'è un sentimento 
Non capisco il senso
di questo mondo che gira in un cerchio
di fuoco sbiadito, l' umanità

Echi lontani di terre africane
nel bianco rumore di un laboratorio
senza una madre, senza un abbraccio
un mesto destino attende ormai Tango

Se c'è un sentimento 
Non capisco il senso
di questa terra in cui regna il sonno
per farsi beffe di chi non è un re

A concludere questa storia
sono io coi miei bisogni
necessità, libero arbitrio
ho reso il mondo un vero schifo
La corsa è senza fine
Si deve andare avanti
l'orango ed il maiale in fondo
sembran solo degli avanzi

Gorgo & Tango

A storm passes on the mountains not far away as we walk along a path in the desert. The rain moves in sheets obstructing what's beyond. Lightning bursts here and there, silhouetting the mountainous horizon. 

As you may notice, the cover art harkens back to a familiar cover from 1973 and that is intentional, because Andrea and Rebecca are strongly influenced by music from that time period. Many fans of 8000 Miles’ first album, Aggregate, have remarked on that influence. The title Crystal Confetti represents the clarity 8000 Miles is honing in their duo’s style and the contrast of weighted moods and flying inspirations.

The entire album, Crystal Confetti, has been released on Bandcamp. Go to https://8000miles.bandcamp.com to check it out and follow 8000 Miles on Bandcamp to get first notices of new releases.

PROGRAM NOTE
Pegasus is a winged, usually white stallion, and one of the best known creatures in Greek mythology. He is the son of Poseidon, and at birth, sprang forth from the bloody neck of the Gorgon Medusa when she was beheaded by the god Perseus. According to legend, everywhere the winged horse struck his hoof to the earth, a spring would burst forth. The imagery of springs bursting forth and Pegasus flying through the skies are what inspired this piece. Pegasus was commissioned by the Aletheia Duo, Ann Yeung, harp and Jonathan Keeble, flute.
