Disquiet Junto Project 0680: Reverse Resolution

Quiet conversations

Had this one on the back burner for quite a while (ruminating in insecurity and a thousand endings) until my wife heard it the other night on staycation weekend in our mix. Her telling me i was a fool for not sharing it with the world and how it made her feel was the catalyst to finish it, so here it is! :)

“日没（sunset）”

日が沈み畑のうえに夜を曳く水路とびこえ夜から逃げる

The sun sets.
Night drags darkness over the field.
I jump over the waterway and flee the oncoming night.

Reflets d'hiver

[Verset]
Hiver miroir glacé devant moi
Copie mon ombre mes pas tu vois
Reflet s'accroche ne me quitte pas
Dans ce monde de froid je suis roi

[Couplet 2]
Sculpteur de glace toutes formes créées
Traversée des rivières gelées
Patinage sur lac figé
Des rêves blancs tout effacés

[Chœur]
Glisse sur le lac enchanté
Chaque trace doucement sculptée
Mon cœur dans la glace enfermée
L'hiver aux mille reflets

[Couplet 3]
Sous la lune miroir éclatant
La nuit sa magie envoûtante
Chaque flocon devient vivant
Dans ce bal étincelant

[Pont]
Les arbres se drapent d'argent
Je suis leur roi pour un instant
Le vent murmure doucement
Un chant d'hiver envoûtant

[Chœur]
Glisse sur le lac enchanté
Chaque trace doucement sculptée
Mon cœur dans la glace enfermée
L'hiver aux mille reflets

Winter reflections

[Verse]
Winter frozen mirror before me
Copy my shadow my steps you see
Reflection clings don't leave me
In this cold world I am king

[Verse 2]
Ice sculptor all shapes created
Crossing frozen rivers
Skating on frozen lake
White dreams all erased

[Choir]
Slide on the enchanted lake
Each trace gently sculpted
My heart locked in ice
Winter with a thousand reflections

[Verse 3]
Under the bright mirror moon
At night its bewitching magic
Every snowflake comes alive
In this sparkling ball

[Bridge]
The trees are draped in silver
I'm their king for a moment
The wind whispers softly
A captivating winter song

[Choir]
Slide on the enchanted lake
Each trace gently sculpted
My heart locked in ice
Winter with a thousand reflections

Music for Organ, Cello and Pedals

Dictaphone Disquiet0680

I started and abandoned this track consistently during 2024, never finished it, never been sure about it but there's something I do like. The modulations are fun and clever, I think,  smooth and yet surprising and effective. I recorded several guitar takes over the year (each time I had a guitar recording session I gave this a fresh tray). I wanted this to be a "guitar" showcase, but eventually made it a full keyboards+bass+guitar+drums track.
The final guitar is an edit from 3 takes I did on a 6 month period, the one with volume pedal is nice.
So the title and the melodic motif (nicked from "Summer of '42") have been on my "to do" list for a couple of years, the actual performance comes  from 2024.
I took that photo in Costa Rica on February 2020.
