WELKOMSTWALS (Openingsdans)

The ThawedCast discusses the first feature-length animated film, 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' from 1937. Philip, Jodi, and Lara examine the impact and legacy of this fairy tale classic that would influence countless films over the decades. Snow White is a princess living in a fantastical medieval-style kingdom currently overseen by her stepmother, a vain and cruel queen. When the Queen's envy of Snow White's beauty reaches a breaking point, she conspires to have the princess killed. Snow White is allowed to escape into the wilderness where she meets seven dwarfs. These mysterious, diminutive men are perplexed by their new house guest, but they grow to appreciate her for the kind spirit she is, and are willing to protect her from the Queen's wrath if ever she were to be found.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)

A game where you venture deeper into a forest, lured by the singing of the Rusalka. Here is a selection of music from the game.

Bloodstone Thief, The
Written by Sabina Khan
Narrated by Reena Dutt	


Laila Habib is having the worst birthday ever, as she's just discovered that her family's two-year stay in Houston, Texas, is going to be extended . . . indefinitely. With one foot in her current life and one foot back in her old home in Mumbai, she doesn't feel like she truly belongs anywhere.

 

But her day only gets worse from there. Opening up what she thinks is a hidden birthday present, Laila unleashes an evil jinn from a magical amulet. Trapped there long ago by Laila's father, the jinn is eager for revenge, and drags Laila's father back to the magical world of Qaf.

 

To save her father, Laila must travel to Qaf, where she discovers that there's only one hope for freeing him. She must find the Bloodstone, an object that gives the holder absolute power. But doing so will require a quest that changes everything Laila ever thought she knew about who she is, what she believes, and who she can trust. Not fully belonging in the jinn world or our own, Laila has to create her own community, forge friendships, and fight for her family-no matter who or what they are.

 

Inspired by Islamic mythology, this hilarious and richly-woven middle-grade fantasy from Sabina Khan sparkles with humor, magic, friendship, and heart -- perfect for fans of Skandar and the Unicorn Thief and Percy Jackson.

The Bloodstone Thief - Audiobook Clip

And now for something completely different… 

In parts of Europe we have monthly balfolk events, with live acoustic music and European folk dances like the Mazurka, Polka and the Schottische. There are lots of young subculture folks and almost everyone is on the dance floor. The vibe is always social and kind of sweet. When I went balfolking again (thanks to JOrk :-) after a break of 10 years, I got the idea to write a Flemish Mazurka inspired song; a waltz with an occasional silence on the third count, which feels like a slowmotion – a slide in time.

Lyrics
Chandeliers and champagne
False laughter, oh what a joy
The bride, such a carnation
She loves the boy

Vixens and jesters
The family preys on her soul
Trapped in their garden
Down the rabbit hole

She keeps on dancing
Through brambles and thorns
The feast, it’s such a nightmare
But she dances on

Long after the party
Barefoot and ice cold
She keeps on waltzing
Wearing a blindfold

She doesn’t know about
the dance around the throne
Trapped in a madhouse
All alone

She keeps on dancing
With blisters on her feet
Oh she keeps on dancing
The hurt and the bleed
She keeps on dancing
Through fire and smoke
The guests are long gone
But the dance will go on

Once she was a breeze
But it didn’t take long
For the dragon to charm her
And mute her song

Forgotten in time
The name she once wore
A grin while still waltzing
Behind the door

fdtraumaa:
я бессовестный в мире совести
роллю этот guap, теряю следы
проиграл, у меня закончились тузы
bladerun, остался без памяти
bloodrain, реки полные крови
в этой сказке нет верного пути
я люблю, но боюсь подойти
я кричу "подайте" so so
внутривенно go go
непременно сбил с ног
я опять один тут
гордый suicide, самый awful of the time
ты не тянешь, знай, завтра непременно в рай
feelin like im dying, не ловит совсем wifi 
я уверен в этом, я
это точно на время
я, заставил волшебника врать
я, забыл, что хотел сказать

KUILL:
самый сказочный мир, я ищу в нем ответы среди паутин
скрываю следы, ты меня не найдешь, я умираю в сети
даже в кругу друзей я всегда один
комната искусства, так много картин,
но они сейчас в крови
это как место crying skin
этот мир похож на сады Эдема
там где то под деревом лежат мои святые дамы
там где то запретный плод светит ярче, чем комета
я считаю там деньги, и мне похуй на их проблемы

Of Ruin And Reverie

Jodi, Lara, and Philip discuss the live action Disney remake 'Snow White' from 2025. Directed by Marc Webb and starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, this retelling expands the story to encompass Snow White's relationship with her parents, having been born during a snowstorm and later suffering the loss of her mother as a child. Gal Gadot's Evil Queen uses her sorcery to enchant the king and amass her power as queen. Thought to be absent on a military campaign, the king is unable to prevent the Evil Queen from inflicting her cruelty upon Snow White and the citizenry. Snow White eventually escapes and finds herself in the company of the forest-dwelling dwarfs, where she also meets up with a band of rebels loyal to the king. Can they aid Snow White in her attempt to find her father and thwart the treacherous Evil Queen?

Dorian Urac is inspired by 80s new wave, alternative rock, nostalgic lofi recordings and cheesy outdated music from the 50s and 60s. 

Dorian's first and only gig was in 2007, at a closed playground, where a shady intergalactic convention of evil overlords took place. (True story, obviously they were not quite right in the head.) Ever since, Dorian decided to remain a cozy stay-at-home rock star.

Hello there — Aelveryth is a solo metal project by Marios Georgiou, influenced mostly by melodic death, black, and post-metal. Maybe sprinkle some fantasy/scifi in there too because I love that stuff.
Based in Thessaloniki, this DIY venture is an experiment born from a need to create.
Everything is recorded and produced at home - still trying to learn the ways of the DAW to be honest...
Whether you're here for the music or the story behind it,
Thanks for stopping by—your support means a lot as I keep learning and creating.
