Arcadia

Ambiginnings

Written by J Wolter, December 2014

Produced & Performed by Penelope Isles, Spring 2015

Gnarbone

Note about the song:
Beauty is the Beast is a sequel to Goldilocks, and as usual I gave it a twist. As obvious from the title, Beauty and the Beast are the same person. Most of the inspiration came from research on dissociative identity disorder, and a bit from Jekyll and Hyde, since I slightly strayed from the psychological rules of the disorder. So to sum it up, it's about the different personalities and their contrasts and similarities, predominately the nice and evil aspects of the mind and why the personalities are there in the first place. I'm studying this in my psychology degree, its inspired a lot of music! 

Beauty is The Beast. Written & Performed By Kiera Osment.

Rose tinted spectacles,
On the eve of the eclipse. 
The cerebellums ruptured.
They can't touch their feet.

Blurry states of dopamine.
Whilst crying on cloud 9.
Deep slumber on cats eyes.
The magnets in the blue. 

What if beauty is the beast?
Do deface this crystal cloak.
Multiplying belles of the ball.
Will the beast procure the good? 

Nebulous space of time. 
Split atoms in their sleep.
Stow away villainy 
Whispers in the thread.

A candle in dead zones.
Sirens on the grey.  
System down, evacuate. 
Let shadows take the blame. 

What if beauty is the beast?
Do deface this crystal cloak.
Multiplying belles of the ball.
Will the beast procure the good? 

Ooh split now split now x4

What if beauty is the beast?
Do deface this crystal cloak.
Multiplying belles of the ball.
Will the beast procure the good?

I've decided that i'm not gonna lose my mind 
Hypervisual; distracted by bright lights 
My heart beats in four four time, but sometimes five 
On the corner of this crowded street 
Singing parables of old friends, busking for black coffee 
Now wide eyed with a wider smile 
'Cos this narrative is bigger than any rooftop I could climb 

So take heed, oh take heed 
Of that blood red burgundy sky 
When you feel like you're losing your mind 
Fast as the summer tides 

So take heed, oh take heed 
Of that blood red burgundy sky 
When the world declares war on your time 
Girl, rest those tired eyes 

Whilst the parties sell their plans 
In papers that I just can't buy 
I'll try to wash the blood off my hands 
Through songs that I just can't write 
Tell me, where is my peace of mind? 

Take all my shortfalls, take all my doubts 
Let 'em burn up in August droughts 
So hard to be still, but I can't think why 
Oh rest find my restless mind 
Oh rest find my restless mind 

So take heed, oh take heed 
Of that blood red burgundy sky 
When you feel like you're losing your mind 
Fast as the summer tides 

So take heed, oh take heed 
Of that blood red burgundy sky 
When the world declares war on your time 
Girl, rest those tired eyes

Restless Single

Restless (Single)

The first track I saved as something worth continuing with.
The first track I'll hesitantly call 'finished'.... More to follow.

Can We Stop This

Track made from found sounds and a spot of virtual synth.

This was one of the first few tracks I started that I considered worth continueing with. A long journey finally completed, I've learned a lot in the process. Maybe now I'm coming to the stage of having a vague idea of just how little I know about music... Happy days one and all :-).

Arocna

I am a cellist, with a love of classical and electronic/ambient music, among others but those are now the main.
Here you'll find finished, unfinished, or live improvisations.
I hope to collaborate, for together we are strong.

Collaborate.
