Scattering Ginkgo Leaves  (Naviarhaiku 423 )

Vocals & Lyrics https://soundcloud.com/shark_teeth93

LYRICS:

No rest on earth for a sinner
A crushing blow I deliver
I wash my hands clean of the day
What can I do? What can I say?

There is nothing left but the wicked
The malady with which you're stricken
A hundred lies still in the quiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
And makes you shiver

A recipe for sheer disaster
A slight of hand by your master
And seeds are sown, they grow a garden
A fragile mind that's forced to harden

There is nothing left but the wicked
The malady with which you're stricken
A hundred lies still in the quiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
And makes you shiver

And darkness grows
What do you know?
You've lost control
You are not in control

And if you feel like a stranger
You might just be in certain danger
And if you're feeling copacetic
The lights die down and then you get it

There is nothing left for the wicked
The malady with which you're stricken
A hundred lies still in the quiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
And makes you shiver

Synth sounds from UDO Super 6, the guitar is a Fender Telecaster, drums are samples.

Clearing out the last of the songs left in our winter closet. This started off as an acoustic cover of The Chromatic’s cover of ‘Petals’ by Hole but evolved into this bittersweet melody that reminds me of Elliott Smith, Jim O’ Rourke, Low and the somber side of Beck.

Undoubtedly I’ll keep fiddling with the mix as always and will then ship it off for mastering at some point.

Now we are very much looking to forward to embracing the spirit of summer by leaning into our rockier influences…more to come!

Expectations

this track is really just revisiting an older tune from around 2022 that started off with just the opening electric piano part, and experimented with different synth pads and an arpeggiator. The updated version adds a few newer synth sounds to the mix. It's really still fairly experimental, and I may try another alternate version at some point.

Sorrows Of Life

Hi everyone! 
When I first heard the piece "Lux" by the great pianist Anastasiya Ihnatovich, I immediately fell in love with it because it touched me so much. I asked Anastasiya if I could orchestrate it. Luckily she agreed. I am very grateful to her.

Check out Anastasiya's page. It's worth it, she has a lot of beautiful pieces there: 
https://on.soundcloud.com/zgLJ7

The background to the piece can be found in a little story that I wrote (it's further down in the description). I set the story to music and merged it with the original piece. That's how "Lux - Light and Darkness" came about. 

Immerse yourself in the musical story of Light and Darkness. We hope you like it.

You can find the video "Lux - Light and Darkness" here:

 Light and Darkness

On a cold, moonless night, Light and Darkness met in a deserted forest. The Light was nothing more than a weak spark, barely more than a glow. The Darkness was all-encompassing, thick as ink and impenetrable.

Darkness: "What are you doing here, little spark? Can't you see this is my realm? I devour everything that comes in my way."

Light: "I may be small, but I am still here. And as long as I exist, I am a sign of hope."

Darkness laughed deeply and thunderously, like an approaching storm.

Darkness: "Hope? You are nothing! A small breath is enough to extinguish you."

The Light flickered slightly, but it stood firm.

Light: "Perhaps you can extinguish me, but even in my disappearance, the memory of me remains. And wherever there is a spark of hope, new light can arise."

The Darkness was silent for a moment, then it thickened even more to suffocate the Light.

Darkness: "Try it then. I have already extinguished countless lights, and each time the night only became darker and more powerful."

The Light now shone a bit brighter, as if nourished by an inner strength.

Light: "Maybe you underestimate me. Every flame starts small, but it can grow and become stronger. It can bring warmth and light, even into the deepest darkness."

Darkness began to seethe, feeling that the Light was not weakening but growing stronger.

Darkness: "What nonsense! You will suffocate in my embrace!"

But the Light now glowed with a definite strength, its glow growing into a flame.

Light: "I am the light of hope and renewal. Even if you envelop me, I will break through. For where there is light, darkness cannot exist."

With these words, the Light spread further, its rays piercing through the Darkness, piercing it like a thousand tiny arrows. The Darkness whimpered, retreated, unable to bear the growing brightness.

Light: "It is time for you to retreat. Your grip is not infinite. Where there is light, darkness cannot exist."

The Darkness retreated further and further, until it was only a shadow in the corners. The Light now shone bright and clear, filling the forest with a warmth that had previously been missing.

Darkness: "You may have won, this time. But I will always return."

Light: "And I will always be here to push you back. For just as the day follows the night, so does light follow darkness. And in every battle, I will triumph again."

The Darkness finally disappeared, and the forest was bathed in warm, golden light. The Light had triumphed, and with it, hope returned to the world.

Acumen

Hear us oh Acumen
The horde is at the wall
Without your help I fear for all

Temptation, the darkness
Born from demon seed
Guide us in our time of need  

Oh Acumen 
Of wisdom and light

Mighty Arrogance spreads it’s wings 
As brilliance dims 

Do not forsake us now oh Acumen
Lead us not to rot but sweet dominion  

Brave bold vigilance
Is fending off the hate
But soon it may be to late

Dogma strikes
Without hesitation 
Awareness the revelation
The rev-e-la-tion

Comprehension
Understanding
Empirical reason
Are fading fast
Into the past 
Of days gone by

Oh Acumen 
Source of truth

Mighty Arrogance spreads it’s wings 
As brilliance dims 

Do not forsake us now  oh Acumen
Lead us not to rot but sweet dominion 

The brut strength of ignorance
Is smashing down the gate
Save us from this woeful fate 

The swarm of indifference
Attacks at viral speed
Defend us from absurdity

Oh Acumen

Hello my friends! Today I would like to share with you my third collaboration with an immensely talented Franck C Production (aka Franck Charles). Please listen to Franck’s majestic cinematic and orchestral music here: @franck-charles-676082884

I am tremendously grateful to Franck for his transforming my humble piano composition into such an 
impressive orchestral creation of powerful emotion, gloriousness and timeless beauty. As always, it has been a great honour and joy for me to collaborate with Franck.

We genuinely hope you will enjoy our music, and thank you so much for your listening and support!

As It Comes (Ft. Franck Charles)

THE BOY - YOU STOLE MY SUN
out now on everywhere🫶

This music is gentle, sometimes cynical, and makes you feel comfortable. 

This was a big challenge! Whisper voice, acoustic sound, sad chill jazzy vibes. 99 BPM and this song ends in 2 minutes and 3 seconds. I want to deliver this song to the bedrooms of people who live alone with problems like me. I do think so.

YOU STOLE MY SUN

Angels

Another version of the song can be found on the album "Cabaret", under the name "Trapped in Shadows [Cabaret]."

[Verse]
I wake up cold, the night still near,
A home that crumbles year by year.
Mama’s hands are rough, she can't let go,
Of dreams she lost a lifetime ago.

[Chorus]
Round and round, we push the weight,
Running faster, but it's too late.
Built to suffer, we can’t break free,
Lost inside this tragedy.

[Verse]
Crowds scream loud, but I can’t hear,
Their cheers are just a mask for fear.
We sing the songs they wanna feel,
But every note is less than real.

The lights are bright, they burn my skin,
But emptiness is all within.
Another show, another day,
I’m just a shadow on display.

[Chorus]
Round and round, we push the weight,
Running faster, but it's too late.
Built to suffer, we can’t break free,
Lost inside this tragedy.

[Bridge]
The world’s on fire, but we survive.
I wonder if we’re truly alive.
They say the world is ours to make,
But how much more can one heart take?

[verse]
My brother’s got hunger in his eyes,
But no one hears the quiet cries.
 
[Chorus]
Round and round, we push the weight,
Running faster, but it's too late.
Built to suffer, we can’t break free,
Lost inside this tragedy.

Just a Shadow on Display [Edit]

Vincent's Dawn
A gentle tone of dawn, born from one of life’s most fragile and magnificent moments – becoming a grandfather for the first time. The track carries the pride and warmth of witnessing a new generation take its first breath, while quietly reflecting on the passage of time and one’s own journey through life.

With soft arpeggios, atmospheric textures, and a careful pulse, the light begins to grow – like a new day, a new life. Vincent's Dawn captures the quiet joy, the deep tenderness, and the inner peace that arrives when you realize your story now continues in someone else’s eyes.

To little Vincent – Grandpa will teach you everything he knows about synthpop and how to make good "random plonks"!

Vincent's Dawn

I'm not doing any music these days,so I thought I'd post one I did years ago. It's a cover of a Paul Ads song I've always loved.

Paul Adamson is a damn fine songwriter and I hardly ever record covers of other folk's work,but this one resonated deeply with me and still does after repeated listens.
I didn't lean too heavy on the production on this,because I wanted to allow the song to shine. I hope you enjoy and bring a few listens to Paul's cloud.

Words and music by PaulAds. Song covered by Davy Vance
