Excellent, moves you to a different universe! 

Knaller Sound Knaller track...du machst wirklich feine Musik 

Enchanting and mystifying: top-notch Peter!

wow great atmosphere you created and loving the modulated bass, and panning, adds a real great effect, a real masterful piece, thank you, I take a bow to you sir - wonderful!

Your music has such quality and depth, Peter, very much the case here...

I listened to some recordings from the "SINTASIA" project and I am amazed and enchanted. Marvelous soundtracks with outstanding vocalizations, artfully arrangement and sophisticated atmosphere.  Nicely portrayed ethos of warriors.  I'm impressed.  Congratulations. Best Regards Peter !

Sintasia - 2. Incantation

Written and recorded pre-lockdown, mixed and mastered post-lockdown.

I would have finished and posted this months ago had I not left my apartment in Glasgow in such a rush (panic...) and forgotten to bring my entire collection of unfinished recordings with me to work on during lockdown. 

Inspired by and dedicated to my friend Megan

Lyrics:

Baby's coming
Got to straighten out...
Time is running
Got to work it out...

Though the days were mean
Our lives are clean today

The day I found you
I thanked the Lord above
You have come and
Filled my life with Love

Though the past's obscene
Our lives are clean today

Though those nights were mean
Our lives are clean today

Clean

The lyric here is a slightly tongue-in-cheek reflection on a variety of possible issues. I was going to rewrite it to something a bit less depressing, but figured that the music suited it.

“Only Love” Lyrics (by Ryan Madison)

The tides are changing and
Our lives are endangered
We're running out of options
What are you going to do?

Hook (x2):
Only love can conquer hate
That's what we need today
Make your mind up
Take off your blinders
Only love can conquer hate
If we fight, that's our mistake
No time for silence
Peace over violence

Verse 1:
Wars and treaties, no cause for bleeding
Disagreements, that's a careless reason
We're training up killers with games for the youth
Fingers are itching, and triggers consume
Surely, there's something embedded in you
If we dig deep, we can find out the Truth,
the Way, the Life; Love paid the price
The stakes are getting higher
Hatred burning like a fire
Time's reaching a finale
Only love can make a rally
Redemption; perdition
Your choice; no contingent
It's grudge or forgiveness;
Let love be your witness
There's no way we can live like this; 
No way, no way
Destruction, division; we're face to face
and now everything we do from here
 will make or break
'Cause I want to live free not just in my dreams
Change got to happen, we can't stay passive
It's time for some action, 
let's take hatred captive
There's no way we can live like this;
no way, no way, no way
'Cause kids are starving, people heartless
Something's got to change

REPEAT Hook (x2):

Verse 2:
Those that hate with their soul they will pay; they'll pay
The price will be more than they gave away
 to delay
And on that day, they'll find out the mistakes
they made
'Cause living without love is not for a human
There's no way we can live like this; 
No way, no way
Destruction, division; we're face to face
and now everything we do from here
 will make or break
'Cause I want to live free not just in my dreams
Change got to happen, we can't stay passive
It's time for some action, 
let's take hatred captive
There's no way we can live like this;
no way, no way, no way
'Cause kids are starving, people heartless
Something's got to change

REPEAT Hook (x2):

Only Love

Only Love (feat. Ryan Madison)

A track from the album Time and Tide, available on Bandcamp
amandasanderson.bandcamp.com/album/time-and-tide

Lyrics, music, mixing, production: Verulium
https://verulium.bandcamp.com/releases
Vocals: Amanda Kim Sanderson

Selene, the goddess of the moon 
Mercurial and hewn 
From ashen rays of afterglow 

High, presiding through the night 
Her veil of silver light 
Cascading over all we know 

Deep in my subconciousness 
Arcadia survives 

In the dismal days of 
Emptiness 
We try to turn the tide 

Before my eyes 
The truth in a strange disguise 
So I ran and I ran 
But the future had a plan 
To catch me out 

If you attune 
To the phasing of the moon 
Like chasing a ghost 
From the pillar to the post 
It wears you down 

Turn the tide 
By leaving the past behind 
Buried in the sands of time 

So in the end 
The phasing wins again 
Come the dark, come the dawn 
Come the chasm of the morn 
It wears you down 

Turn the tide 
By leaving the past behind 
Buried in the sands of time

Buried In The Sands Of Time

BIRDS OF PARADISE - SHORT TALES PART III

In this third edition of short musical tales for three acoustic guitars, exploring furthermore on the possibilities of using multiple acoustic guitars , I am again letting the inspiration take me, free from fixed form or styles, but of course infused with music that has lived with me my entire life. You'll hear Latin, Jazz, Flamenco, Fusion, Blues, Classical and more.  Shout out to the free thinkers and the open minded...

I regularly get questions about my acoustic guitar technique, so I will elaborate here: In this track I play everything in fingerpicking style, plucking the strings with my right hand using my nails and part of the fleshy fingertips to create the sounds. I mute the stings sometimes by placing my handpalm on the strings and plucking with the fingertips, or I will rest my right hand pinky on the strings and play with thumb, index and second finger. No plectrum here, although I love that sound and way of playing too, as you will hear in other pieces of mine.

As always I really appreciate you listening and as always I really enjoy your likes, comments and shares. ;)

-Dan

I've used a vocal pitch tool to make the vocals suit my track, so if there's  any strange effects: my responsibility - I hope I succeeded ! Enjoy !!! ------ My solo: played with the Akai EWI + the awesome Respiro VSTi by imoxplus / Belgium
