EXTENDED COMMERCIAL VERSION - the short Single version can be found here:

A melodic ethnic flavored soundscape with a pensive pulse, which becomes increasingly more anxious and powerful toward the end with off-set percussive elements and off-beat /syncopated orchestral SFX.

The mourning violins and the female vocal lament (separately first and then as call / response) create an atmosphere of sadness - anguish and pain of war. The ending briefly highlights the battle and then just evaporates ... into history, or?

Composer: H. Luqman, P. Heckmann and A. Mutlu
Creative Director: M. Fairouz
Production / Mix / Master: P. Heckmann for IPI Ltd. and Rose Records and Publishing

An Unbearable Sadness

An Unbearable Sadness (feat. Ethnic World Orchestra)

Main parts --- nylon and steel string acoustic with some electric guitar overdubs later. A kind of study, with some almost experimental electric guitar ornaments. Recovered the acoustic guitar files, fixed them up, and glued it together! A bit of unevenness in the quality means best on earphones I think.

Step into the Light

I had to have an operation on my left hand, which has meant I haven't been able to play guitar for a couple of months now. 

Anyway, it's on the mend although I still don't have much feeling in my little finger and the side of my hand, but it's getting better, so my guitar is coming home, not fast enough, but my baby's coming home. 
Here she is...

This sacred composition evokes the feeling of a spiritual ascension — a gentle and profound journey towards the Divine. Carried by breathlike chants and the shimmer of celestial instruments, “Ascent to the Divine” invites the listener to enter a state of deep receptivity and inner stillness.

The interplay of male and female voices echoes through vast sonic spaces, like sacred mantras offered into the heavens. Atmospheric drones, soft flutes, and ritualistic percussion create a timeless temple of sound — where Earth meets Sky, and soul meets Source.
