Smother the Stillness

🎵The only way to win the war- (Official Lyric Video from Brady Kent) 😢💔🎶 

'The only way to win the war' is a song about the 3800 Kimakase pilots that died, fighting a last ditch war for the nation of Japan. They managed to sink 50 ships and kill 5000 enemy seamen.

'Shameful, or heroic' sums up the debate that still rages. There are now less ten kimakase pilots still alive, all in their 90's.

This song is a reflection of the rituals and beliefs around followng a ''divine Emperor' into battle. Most of the men were only 21 years of age.

Do you think it was shameful, or heroic ?

The only way to win the war

Dive into the haunting depths of ‘Shadow Tide’ – a dark, atmospheric track where the night, the sea, and shadows collide. Moody reggae vibes meet introspective lyrics, perfect for late-night reflection and immersive listening.

Shadow Tide

Step into the haunting beauty of "Tragedy in Verses," a moody, cinematic journey through heartbreak, betrayal, and emotional unraveling. Every lyric is taken directly from original poems, transformed into music without alteration. No filters. No fluff. Just raw vulnerability delivered through chilling male vocals and haunting visuals.

Tragedy in Verses

“Broken” is a raw, emotional ballad about grief, love, and the struggle to move on.
The song tells the story of a man who opens the door to an old flame offering comfort after the death of his wife. Her presence is kind, almost spiritual, but it only deepens the pain he feels. Haunted by memories of the woman he lost, he rejects religion, forgiveness, and the idea of comfort from anyone else.

Driven by heartfelt lyrics, cinematic instrumentation, and a haunting atmosphere, Broken explores the collision of past and present, love and loss, faith and doubt. It’s both intimate and epic — a song for anyone who has loved deeply and felt the silence left behind.

BROKEN

[Verse 1]
So many years have passed since I’ve seen your face,
Now you’re here again in front of me
Don’t get me wrong it's good to see you here
And I remember how it used to be

[Verse 2]
The years we had gave us such good times
I got the memories inside of me
But to see your face just brings it all back home
Now the darkness is surrounding me

[Break]
I don't pray any more
I don't pray anymore

[Verse 3]
It was many years ago I lost her
And that is when I walked away
Many years ago the Angels came and took her
All I can do is live from day to day
All I can do is live another day  

[Chorus]
I want nothing from you 
I don’t need your singing Angels
I need nothing from you
I don't pray to God anymore
I want nothing from you 
And I’m not seeking your forgiveness
I want nothing from you
I just want to be left alone
I want nothing from you 
I just want to be on my own

[Instrumental]

[Outro]
I want nothing from you 
I don’t need your singing Angels
I need nothing from you
I don't pray to God anymore
I want nothing from you 
And I’m not seeking your forgiveness
I want nothing from you
I just want to be left alone
I want nothing from you 
I just want to be on my own

Broken

Открывающий трек EP "Наследственность" погружает слушателя в глубокую философию преодоления. Создается атмосферная звуковая картина внутренней трансформации.
Лирический герой проходит путь от сомнений к абсолютной уверенности в себе. "Моя жизнь это не борьба" — не отрицание трудностей, а принятие жизни как игры, где ты сам устанавливаешь правила. Трек исследует тему наследственности через призму выбора собственного пути вопреки обстоятельствам.
Меланхоличная музыкальная основа создает идеальный контраст с мощным посланием о внутренней свободе.

The opening track from EP "Heredity" immerses the listener in a profound philosophy of overcoming. It creates an atmospheric soundscape of inner transformation.
The lyrical protagonist journeys from doubt to absolute self-confidence. "My life is not a struggle" — not a denial of hardships, but an acceptance of life as a game where you set your own rules. The track explores the theme of heredity through the lens of choosing your own path despite circumstances.
The melancholic musical foundation creates the perfect contrast with a powerful message of inner freedom. Raw, honest lyrics combined with emotional delivery make this track a standout piece of contemporary alternative rock.

Неборьба

"I Walk The Road To Nowhere" is a heartfelt country-folk ballad that tells the story of a man searching for light in the darkest of times. With raw acoustic guitar, haunting melodies, and deeply personal lyrics, the song paints a picture of walking a lonely road, torn between despair and hope. It’s both a prayer and a confession — a cry to God for guidance, strength, and redemption.

This track blends folk and country roots into something honest and soul-stirring — for anyone who’s ever felt lost, broken, and still dared to ask for help.

I Walk The Road To Nowhere

[Verse 1]
I walk the road to nowhere
No signs along the way
The wind blows around me
The rain comes again

[Verse 2]
I don’t even have a shadow
Because I don’t even have a light
All that surrounds me is the darkness
I’m so afraid of the night

[Chorus]
Give me light, my god
Show me the way, oh lord 
Help me to see
A better way
Give me light, my god
Hold my hand 
I'm tired and weary
I'm a lost and broken man 
I'm a lost and broken man 

[Verse 1]
You know  all my problems
You've seen all my tears
You've walked in my darkness
for all of these year  

[Verse 2]
I've taken the wrong road
Now I'm lost in the dark 
Please show me a light lord
I'm falling apart

[Chorus]
Give me light, my god
Show me the way, oh lord 
Help me to see
A better way
Give me light, my god
Hold my hand 
I'm tired and weary
I'm a lost and broken man 
I'm a lost and broken man 
A broken man

About

I’m Dean R. Chandler — a London based songwriter, recording artist, and storyteller. My music is rooted in a lifelong search for meaning, weaving together themes of love, loss, faith, alien contact, and humanity’s future.

My upcoming double concept album Human Odyssey (set for release in January 2027) is the culmination of decades of writing and reflection. It’s a narrative journey that begins with a search for God and ends with an encounter with extraterrestrial intelligence — exploring not only what it means to be human, but also where we might be heading as a species. Musically, it draws inspiration from the epic storytelling of Jeff Wayne’s War of the Worlds, the synth-driven edge of Gary Numan, and the emotional depth of artists like Tori Amos and Chris de Burgh.

I previously released Time Machine – Reflecting Shattered Dreams (2014) and continue to revisit my archive of songs written across 35 years, reimagining them with today’s tools and sounds. Some pieces remain intimate and acoustic, while others expand into dark rock, industrial, or orchestral landscapes — but all are connected by a focus on emotional honesty and cinematic storytelling.

Beyond music, I’m fascinated by the intersection of creativity and technology. I’ve been experimenting with AI-driven composition and production to bring old demos to life and to spark entirely new works. For me, these tools are not replacements for human artistry but extensions of it — ways of unlocking stories and emotions that otherwise might have remained hidden.

At its heart, my work is about connection: to the past, to the future, and to the unseen mysteries of existence. Music, for me, isn’t just entertainment — it’s a chronicle of transformation, a conversation between spirit, science, and sound.
