Beautiful stuff.  I love the wonky, drunken feel of summer and winter skies at the same time.

So lovely to see this song here, B :)   Beautiful!

Wow. I remember that heavenly voice! Love this collaboration! Wonderful!!

Absolutely stunning on it's on, but especially moving considering the source. Great to hear you both on this track

I created this album of instrumental electronic music for the February 2023 RPM Challenge. I had fun making it.

This is VERY interesting.  

This is a song that was originally created in 2008 using a backing track that was supplied by Michael Marquesen (originally called 'I'm Uneasy') as the foundation.  I added some e-bow/frippertronic guitar and then turned it over to Mysti, along with the lyric idea of the constellation of Orion looking down on me when I was 11.  

She then layered an unbelievably heavenly set of vocals over the music.   

Then it just sat there and never got finished...

Until a few nights ago.  

Mysti rediscovered the original logic audio file on one of her old computers.  She re-sang the lead vocal, harmonizing with herself from 2008.  So we now have a song about looking back in to the past and the future, with Michael's fabulous backing track, and Mysti's time layered vocals

When i pulled it up and heard it again for the first time in years...it made me cry

Thank you Cat
Thank you Michael

Lyrics by particledots with refinements from mystified 

A different me. 
I look back at a different me from a long time ago. 
When I was 11 years old, I saw myself doing this 
I was watching over me as the constellation of Orion 
Spanned the sky on a crisp, clear October night. 
Scared of the silence, but safe and secure in this connection with my older self 
I knew that everything would be all right. 
A different me. 
Still scared of the silence. 
But without the security of the connection to my younger self. 
Wishing I was still 11. 
Lying in that bed at 3am, away from mom and dad with the pitch-black sky above me. 
Was it really me that was looking in through the window. 
Or was I just looking up at the shoulders of Orion?  
******************************************** 
Lyrics--Ideas: 
a different me...looking back 
a long time ago 
watching the night sky...the summer sky 
alone. 
the winter constellation, spanned sky 
It was orion looking at me 
looking at it 
the shoulders of orion, in the summer sky 
scared of the silence 
but safe and secure in this connection with my older self 
I knew that everything ...would be alright 
I knew....
In the summer sky, the constellation 
and the shoulders of Orion
