While I kept living in the shadows I was missing the sun Realising far too late You were the one

If I had heard you knocking Boy I would’ve opened the door I would not have kept you Waiting anymore

It was over before I Could ask the boy to stay Mighta kept him here in front of me If I knew he’d walk away

I couldn’t see you in front of me Too blind to know we were meant to be I got a habit of finding out the hard way When I’m wrong

Thought I was stronger when I’m alone Not hurting more than I’d ever known I bet they’d tell me I’m crazy I’m not right where I belong

I’d overthink a bit, 
I’d overthink of everything Every choice I’d make 
I’d keep on questioning 
You didn’t need to worry 
‘bout my worrying No you couldn’t be certain 
I could beat uncertainty

It was over before I Could ask the boy to stay Mighta kept him here in front of me If I knew he’d walk away

I couldn’t see you in front of me Too blind to know we were meant to be I got a habit of finding out the hard way When I’m wrong

Thought I was stronger when I’m alone Not hurting more than I’d ever known I bet they’d tell me I’m crazy I’m not right where I belong

I couldn’t see you in front of me Too blind to know we were meant to be I got a habit of finding out the hard way When I’m wrong
Thought I was stronger when I’m alone Not hurting more than I’d ever known I bet they’d tell me I’m crazy I’m not right where I belong

In Front of Me

“A painter paints pictures on canvas but musicians paint their pictures on silence.” -  Leopold Stokowski

"The most powerful and magical language is music. The reason for this is that music is the original language. Music is not ornamented poetry, and poetry is not ornamented prose. Poetry is fallen music, and prose is fallen poetry. Prose is not the original language; it is poetry made practical. Even poetry is not the original language; it is music made speakable, it is the words of music separated from their music. In the beginning was music." (Peter Kreeft, Philosophy of Tolkien)

About the Music

I’ve been a songwriter and producer for many years, and every lyric and melody I create comes straight from me. Because I live with MTD, I’m no longer able to sing the way I once could.

When AI technology became capable of faithfully interpreting vocal performances, I saw it as an opportunity to keep making and sharing music without losing the ability to share new songs that I’ve written. Every song still begins and ends with me. I write the lyrics, compose the melodies, and record full vocal takes myself. Those recordings are then used to teach an AI singer to perform each song exactly as I intend it to sound, with every note and emotion intact.

Nothing musically is generated by AI. The AI voice simply allows me to share the songs I’ve written and performed in the past or for new songs I can’t physically sing nearly as well anymore. It’s not about replacing the human side of music. It’s about repackaging and re-presenting it. 

I chose a female vocal model because my lyrics take on a new depth when expressed through a female voice. It draws attention to the emotion behind the words in a way that feels right to me.

My name is Juan Francisco Bueno Olóriz, I am a musician, composer, lyricist and I play the guitar and piano. Since I was a child I have liked to compose the lyrics and music of my songs, first as a self-taught person and little by little as a professional, after a lot of effort and study.

I have studied harmony, counterpoint, fugue, composition, musical arrangements and I have also been a professor of Aesthetics, History of Music, Culture and Art at the conservatories of Tudela and Tarazona (Spain)

I compose songs, write lyrics and sing most of them. I don't have  'one'  style. It depends on my mood or on certain issues that are going on in our world. AND some listeners can even tell which songs are genuine 'Birchwood-songs' (!)

💖✨ Untiring Tiger, I started to tell my Chronicles in 2014, here on Soundcloud, evolving into different musical spheres (Deep House /// Chillout/Ambient/Progressive Trance  /// Trance Upbeat /// Techno) until I started to go Downtempo in 2015, creating the genre I called Ethno Deep, unable to tag properly my mixes. I don't "play" downtempo, I create it on my decks. A part of me lives here, telling and sharing ShAnkAri's Chronicles, flowing mystic... 🙏🏽🎵💜✨

Today, I remix Hip-Hop/Rap//Pop adding my Downtempo touch : callin' it #Rapnotech and crafting dj mixes with them (seed has been sowed, some copycats already popped out, that's how the story goes)
1/ No profit done, except if we officially collab and you wanna put the remix on sale. No monetized account. 
2/ I give credits : composers come first ; whatever I do is an echo and a tribute to their creativity.
(You want me to put smthg down, please message me, will do ! 😉🤝 )

I make music everyday, from 2 to 10am, home. When it's a mix, it's a gingerly curated acoustic experience, followed with its meticulously crafted visual storytelling, composed of anonymous artworks that I collect and that you can watch on my YouTube channel...

✨✨✨

Next to what, I'm an astrologer, don't hesitate to message me, astrology being the single key to understand what Reality is, and how it works. 

The highest degree of consciousness one can reach inside Reality is to know that what is called Consciousness is actually fully driven by the stars. Mind is the Witness of the Experience that is a lifetime.  

"Know yourself" means : go to an astrologer and let them read your Birth Sky, that contains your Settings, and the Script of this path in Time that you call your Life. It's your monad's Karma. Astrologer has nothing else to propose. Since there's nothing else to get. 

Welcome with any question 👐🏽☸️💜🎵✨


Namaste, Anne-Aude B. aka ShAnkAri 🌿🌺🎨🎵💜🍃
