Incredible song! So well done throughout.

Great soundscape!! I like the atmosphere of this track!! (*^^*)

Wow - bombastic song! For me that doesn´t sound too much like Chill. But don´t know -  something between Prog, Rock, Pop and Soundtrack with a strong retro colour. Love the 7/8 every 2. time, has a very intense effect. Brilliant work!

Beautiful Guitar and Vocals, Robin and Susane.

A song about self-discovery and a realization about life.

Lyrics:

  - where am I? -

  - what is this place? -

  - am I awake? -

  --* I am here *--

  Slowing the coherence of my
  fragile state of grace
  Awareness of the moment is
  coercing me awake 

  - be here now -

  I wander cross the planes of 
  spectacular quintessence
  Free to be me, no more
  Rules, no more conformance

  - breathe -

  Deep in the folds, 
  I’m caught up in my mission
  Helpless as the spreading cracks 
  breakout upon my vision

  --* I am awake! *--

  Numbing through the day, shattered
  life, outlived my stay
  Thoughts of my dream, knowing 
  reason, I'll find a way

  - be here now -

  Watching all the movement of 
  modern life unfold
  Gripped by all the madness, that
  we have all been sold

  - breathe -

  Now I can see that
  life is not a scheme
  Got a sense of being from 
  the edges of my dream

  --* I am awake! *--

  --* I am here *--

The Edges Of My Dreams (feat. Susane Asher)

B L U N T • F O R C E • S E R E N I T Y

"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:
