Demo of an acoustic interlude for my black metal project.

The cover art is the white waters of the Big Thompson River in Rocky Mountain National Park. The river was flowing fast and strong. The snowpack has begun to melt as Spring begins in the mountains.

River (noun) - a large natural stream of water flowing in a channel to the sea, a lake, or another such stream.

River

I am the river
Ever moving
Ever forward
ᚾ

I Am the River

I feel lost again.
I want to turn back - and leave,
But I'll continue on.
Wind at my back, 
I’ll continue.
I'm all I’ve got.
ᚾ

Forward I

Nauðiz, old powerful rune,
I chant your name in the night.
By the sound of the river.
Beneath the moonlight.
ᚾ

Forward II

I'll shed these tines
Among Spring's blooms.
Leaving behind 
The weight of yesteryear,
I begin anew.
ᚾ

Forward III

The light shown through the leaves
Illuminating my path I walked
Between the leaves I walked
Between the trees I walked
As light shown through the leaves
Illuminating
ᚾ

Illuminating

The musical and emotional scratchpad for my various projects (black metal, hip-hop, and some electronic). Learning to record and produce music while wandering the montane forest searching for meaning.
