Wrote this after working out this tune to jam, Lullaby by artist NeoWakan. She is an absolute genius and her collection is absolutely worth a start to finish listen. Trust me you'll go back!

Eileen, My Nana and Aileen whom I've started working with musically are both inspiring this song... (Note: The name Eileen means Beauty, radiance... The name Aileen means Light.... apparently.... thanks google)

Finish this for 2025 Album... (Maybe request a Persian purr... Then we have perfection here🕯️)

My Nana gave me my first ever piano lesson. I remember it like a video. in this song I used the speed finger/thumb cross over technique she showed me early on. I think of her "Every time" I do it 😊

The song itself was triggered by something Aileen said to me yesterday. I showed her a pic of my Nana for no other reason that she has the same name just a letter off... I was made to realize that I keep my Nana's pic and Grandads book of poetry beside me in the studio all the time. So they do actually shine down on me everyday. Before I showed it to Aileen I just did it... but she made me realize what it has actually meant and what it will continue to mean going forward..

"to live like a human that's being remembered is living eternal life" NeoWakan ... Now go and listen to her 🙌  😊 Please and Thanks

Lyrics

♾️They're just invisible♾️

So she answers,
All the time,
Gone from here,
But still shining down.
It's her presence,
Everyday.
A photograph,
Eternal memory
With your Eyes so Lean
You see my clean.
Nana Eileen

The perfect human form
Words can't describe that
Warm, Beautiful, Kind ,Brave, In tune, In time,
Such sheen
A pure being, supreme...
💫 Human Aileen 💫

Call your clean
Prove and grieve
Presence is forever when you remember 

Remember her
Remember him
Remember them
Remember everyone

Remember her
Remember him
Remember them
Remember everyone

They're just invisible. to the eyes.

♾️Just give the light and you shall receive...
Cut negative ties and all is starred seed...
Ask the Universe.
An enjoyable humanity.♾️

That's what I believe.


Last words for Nana and Papa.
They had 8 children. 5 Girls and 3 Boys
Then those Girls and Boys grew up and had 23 children. My generation. And my generation has also had 23 children up to this point. All out there doing good thanks in large part to my Nana and Papa. Bliss 💕


If you like the song. Sure have a look at the pic and thank the Universe for making those two beautiful humans because the song could not have existed without them. Maybe that's the only reasonable way we can thank them.

Eh the pic is in the other version here...

Waves

[Verse]
My head is aching, heavy from the night,
Shoes tied too tight, holding on right,
Wake at midnight, with feelings torn,
Cramps in my calf, the tension worn,
Dreams fleeting fast, shadows collide,
Secrets untold, whispering inside.

[Chorus]
You have to stretch out,
No matter how it hurts,
Stretch out, no matter how it hurts,
Never stop, never pause

[Verse]
When the current fades, silence anew,
The vibration lost, a disconnected view,
Words left unspoken, echoes remain,
Fool's ramblings end, truth in the rain,
Moments slip by, swept by the stream,
Stillness sways, unravel the dream.

[Chorus]
You have to check out,
No matter how it hurts,
Check out and see everything outside,
Oh-oh, oh, oh

[Bridge]
I don’t need a father,
Think I'll go, alone,
Left in this silence,
Seeking the unknown.

[Chorus]
You have to zoom out,
No matter how it hurts,
Zoom out and see everything we’re destroying,
Oh-oh, oh-oh

[Chorus]
You have to stretch out,
No matter how it hurts,
Stretch out, no matter how it hurts,
Never stop, never pause

Stretch Out

Stretch Out [Smoking Gun Mix]

The Dream Of Kisses [Before They Came]

[Verse]
Silent roads we tread
In this quiet town
Whispers rise then softly drown
Fallen leaves on stone
We trace shadows here
We trace shadows here

Stars fade, they guide
Paths we used to roam
(We trace shadows here)
Still echoes (trace shadows here)
from our soft unknowns
Time forgets us slow
We are stories told
We are stories told

[Chorus]
(Yet) we hold on
In this fragile night
There's still a spark inside
Still a spark inside

[Bridge]
Tiny spark in endless time, 
awake and come alive,
Through the chaos, stars align, 
you're meant to rise and shine.

[Verse]
Awake in shadows' gentle sway
We walk these roads, fade into gray
Yet still a note, so faint, survives
In the emptiness, hope revives

[Chorus]
(Yet) we hold on
In this fragile night
There's still a spark inside
Still a spark inside

[Outro]
Time may drift and seasons fade, 
but one truth still survives,
The moments shared with you 
were the best of all my life.

Still A Spark Inside [Edit]

Rise [I See A Girl Undone]

[Verse]
Screens aglow, I'm waving low
In this shade, where did love go?
Just a sound, an echo bound
Home feels empty all around
I try to speak, they look away
In a world where silence stays

[Chorus]
They say to toughen up
But they don't feel the steal
Love's dripping through the ceiling
And I keep fading, unreal

[Verse]
Dinner cold, the table's bare
Mom and Dad, lost in their stare
Stories told, but no one hears
Floating through these scrolling years
Yet I smile, keep it all fine
In a world of warning signs

[Chorus]
They say to toughen up
But they don't feel the steal
Love's dripping through the ceiling
And I keep fading, unreal

[Bridge]
Screaming, let me be seen
Through the cracks, I intervene
Breaking free, sounding the drums
Silence turns to shouts, here it comes

[Chorus]
They say to toughen up
But they don't feel the steal
Love's dripping through the ceiling
And I keep fading, unreal

Dripping [Toughen Up Mix]

Note: In light of the recent AI breakthroughs, we feel it's important to clarify that we've been working with voice modulation since the mid-1990s – originally inspired by David Bowie's album Outside. Our approach predates AI-driven tools and is rooted in treating the voice as an instrument, shaped and sculpted through earlier technologies.

We fully understand that questioning authenticity may not be the intention – but it's worth remembering that all electronic music is, by nature, mediated and transformed. Even Nietzsche pointed out how modern tools shape us: inserting paper into a typewriter already creates a distance that handwriting does not. Perhaps birdsong is the only truly authentic sound. 🐦
