Healing music! It's very lovely. Hopefully your wrist heals as well. I like the instrumentation. ~Masha

This  is a track that beautifully captures the essence of serenity and hope. The piano, with its delicate and flowing execution, creates a calm atmosphere that perfectly complements the choir. The voices blend together in harmonies that evoke a sense of unity and inner peace, making the piece both moving and spiritual. Every note and every word seem to transport the listener to a place of tranquility and reflection, conveying a universal message of peace. It's a composition that inspires and touches the soul.😍

Beautiful work- I love the place where the voice returns after the middle section. You definitely created something special there!

Wonderfully calming and reflective Steve. Will our world ever totally calm down?

Great musical spirituality and high art music!

Burning for You

The original version of "Atlas" always gave me a slight pain in my neck when I listened to it. I was never quite lucky with the generated drums, and the song also had a somewhat slushy note.
So I asked K2 and the Three (https://soundcloud.com/k2andthe3) if he would like to play drums and refurbish the song. Luckily he did and how... and now I feel very released about this rerelease... :) 
A Big Thank You for that... :)

Atlas

1
You’re a mountain of a titan of the old times
Gaia is supposed to be your mother
You’re a pole at the coordinate system
You were the prison of your brother
One could’nt really quite imagine
All the masses

You were condemned to hold up
Celestial heavens
After the battle of the gods

Since then you carried the weight of the world
Upon your shoulders

2
You’re responsible and of purpose
You’re imperatively necessary for structure
You are stabilizing and decorative
You’re the leitmotif for architecture
There is a 2nd century sculpture cut of you
In the museum of archaeology in Naples

You are condemned to hold up
All the statics
Between the basis and the rooftop

Where you carry the weight of the world
Upon your shoulders

3
You contain of corpus, archi and processi
You have ligaments like wings
Articulating in every moment
Here and now right inside of the body
Sometimes there is a pain in the neck
That makes everything just worse

You were condemned to hold up
And move yes and no
Between the axis and the occiput

Where you carry the weight of the world
Upon your shoulders

Will you carry the weight of the world
Upon your shoulders ?

Hope, it isn’t too shrugged yet…

Atlas (wt K2 and the Three)

I strained my wrist playing guitar while practicing a new piece I hope to post in a month or two, so in the meantime I decided to freshen up a short piece I had on SC from a few years ago. It’s a simple melody, a musical meditation, towards peace; the dove of peace carries this message, through many cultures and religions. Peace is needed now, more than ever. Hope you may spend 2 minutes with me to meditate.
PS. Wasn't able to master this with clarity, so headphones/earphones best.

Thank you, David, for the invitation to make music together on your already beautiful composition.  It's always an honor for me.  @david-dunhamuser589535203 <--- Do yourself a favor and take a listen to more of David's peaceful guitar music. ( I'm wearing my green!)

The Beauty Of County Kerry. David Dunham and Debra Buesking

A song for those lost to the sea and dedicated to the brave souls of the RNLI who risk their lives in dangerous conditions. Their motto...with courage, nothing is impossible.

Lost At Sea

Cast of Characters:
Steve's Planet-- @steve-vervaet —Steve—acoustic guitar, vocals, lyrics, composition/arrangement
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–electric guitar
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ—organ and piano
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and rhythm guitar
cgmaness-- @user-419254289-15129531 – Chris -- electric guitar
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–electric guitar, production, and mix
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – five string fretless bass 

This song was released a few weeks ago as a mix that Stephen did. Tez, being the equally talented producer that he is, decided to make a mix that highlighted the interplay between the guitars and the keys. This mix is more focused on the instruments, while still giving Steve's vocals their due. 
  The song was written by Steve on the acoustic guitar. He passed it along to Ken, who added a sturdy rhythm acoustic guitar, as well as his always solid, dynamic drums to it. In short order, Ken got the rest of the Eclectic Collective together on it, starting with Josh, who added his five string fretless bass to complete the rhythm section. Next up was JJ, who's keys, both organ and piano, can be heard livening the whole thing up. Then came Tez with his fiery ripping guitar fills. 
  We were all blown away, though, when Stephen added his equally ripping guitar fills as responses to Tez's parts. It really sounds like the two maestros are having a conversation. Not to be outdone, Chris sprinkled some of his magical guitar to fill in the spaces, mostly at the beginning.  
  We all really enjoy working on Steve's songs, although it's been a few months since we did one together.  It's been proven many times before that if you start out with something good, and you end up with some thing great. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Summer In An Olympic And Paralympic Year

Nothing’s ever easy now

Breath of Balance is a meditative instrumental designed to align with the energy of the waning Gemini Moon. Gentle piano, airy textures, and soft strings invite calm presence and grounding while honoring duality and flow. This track is perfect for journaling, mindfulness, or breathwork as you move toward balance and release.

✨ Guided Breathing Practice

Find a quiet, comfortable space.

Place one hand on your heart, the other on your belly.

Inhale slowly through your nose for 4 counts, feeling your body expand.

Hold for 2 counts, resting in the stillness.

Exhale through your mouth for 6 counts, softening and letting go.

As you breathe, imagine a pink tulip opening in morning light — a symbol of renewal and gentle strength.

Repeat for 5 cycles, then simply listen, letting the music carry you into balance.

I like Soundcloud because it's a friendly community for sharing our music. When I like your music, I say how it affected me, maybe something about how you wrote, performed or produced it. I have musically diverse interests: pop/rock songs, jazz-rock fusion/prog instrumentals; acoustic guitar. Main instrument is guitar, I'm not a keyboard player or singer, but hopefully I can do enough there to make my work sound ok.
