The Collected Stories of Lost Letters

Back in blue  [remix]

My first guitar song aged 17, back then on an Aria 12 string, now well its just me and my virtual band

My girlfriend's parents went overseas on a holiday and I ran her father's factory while they were away, for this I got some pocket money that I used to buy that Aria, since then music has been a part of my life, through thick and thin

In this world of upheaval and change, we all have a say. Divergent views are the normal exchange in society. Say what you mean, mean what you say. What U Say?

What Say U?

Featuring myself on P-bass, V-drums and A guitar, is nine minutes of Cmi blues, separated into three parts so you don't have to sit through nine minutes of me playing with myself. That would be weird.

Picture (part I) Brian-melt – Sea-blue-green-forest-blues-part-i-of-iii-parts is of the Calapooia River, taken from a video I shot with my old scandroid phone. Titled "Reflection - Calapooia River Spirit." You may be able to just make out the River Goddess. 😉🤨😉

Video will go up on eewtube soon. For now, pirated (by me) here...

Rhythm Of The Wild

Celestial pads and shimmering synths create a weightless, cosmic journey through a nebula of sound.

DAWN ABOVE THE EVERLASTING SHROUD

Celestial Nebula

Sacred Score: A Truffle Odyssey, Leeuwenstein
A cinematic journey designed to gently guide a truffle ceremony from threshold to homecoming. Warm analog pads, cathedral-like choirs, and expressive orchestral themes (with a soft wink to Vangelis) rise and fall like breath, majestic one moment, tender the next. A five-note leitmotif appears throughout as a compass, returning you to center.
What to expect
This album moves in arcs: opening → descent → discovery → peak → release → integration. Massive drums and brass lift you when courage is needed; intimate felt-piano, handpan and strings hold you when the heart opens. Everything is wordless and ceremonial—crafted to support deep inner work without pulling attention away.
Best way to listen
Low or moderate volume, full-range speakers or good headphones, lights soft and warm. Breathe with the swells. Allow the spaces between notes to do their work.

Instruments & palette

For facilitators
Arc lengths are intentional; transitions have long tails for seamless cueing. Suitable for deep introspection, breath-led movement, and gentle integration.

Photograph: “Apollo 11 LEM” by Michael Collins, NASA – This photograph contains every known living human and thing except one, Michael Collins.  The picture shows the LEM (Lunar Excursion Module) returning to the Apollo 11 Command Module after the first Lunar landing at the Sea of Tranquility.  Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong are in the LEM, Michael Collins was behind the camera in the Command Module, and the rest of humanity was on the “Blue Marble” rising above the Moon.

"I don't always make music.  But when I do, I prefer dynamics.  Stay below -6dB, my friends."

Composition explorations in musical textures, stories and grooves.

I am an amateur composer, producer and musician who has been inspired and influenced by music my entire life.  Beyond my interests in developing harmony and rhythm ideas, a song’s timbres and textures have always held a deeper emotional grip on me.  This passion for tone has dominated my compositions and productions, which are combined with playful melodies and progressions that are immersed in sophisticated soulful beats.

B L U N T • F O R C E • S E R E N I T Y is led by Robin Benjamins and features collaborations with composers and musicians from down the road, and from around the world.  These artists are:
