Lyrics:

When the sun sets low
And you think of me
Remember the laughter
The love, the glee
The moments we shared
The dreams we chased
The joy in our hearts
The smiles on our face

Life's a journey
With its highs and lows
But in your hearts
My memory glows
Hold on to the good
Let the bad ones fade
In the warmth of love
Our bond is made

Hold on to the joy
Let go of the pain
In the light of our memories
Love will remain
Until we meet again
In the sky so blue
I'll be waiting there
Watching over you
We'll find each other
Where the sun never sets
In a place of peace
Where our hearts connect

When storms would come
You were my shield
In your embrace
My heart could heal
The whispered words
The laughter's light
Our bond grew strong
In darkest night

Life is fleeting
But love endures
In every heartbeat
It assures
Let not sorrow
Cloud your mind
For in your hearts
I’m intertwined

Hold on to the joy
Let go of the pain
In the light of our memories
Love will remain
Until we meet again
In the sky so blue
I'll be waiting there
Watching over you
We'll find each other
Where the sun never sets
In a place of peace
Where our hearts connect

If ever you feel 
Lost and alone
Look to the sky
You’re not on your own
My spirit's there
In the whispering breeze
In the rustling leaves
And the swaying trees

Remember me with joy
Not with tears
For in the afterlife
I’ll be near
Until we meet again
Hand in hand
In a realm of peace
In a promised land

"Canción de Amor" nació en un momento de mi vida marcado por la pérdida y el aprendizaje. Viví el dolor indescriptible de perder a varios hijos antes de que nacieran y, de manera inesperada, a mi padre. En medio de ese duelo, esta canción se convirtió en un refugio, un espacio entre mi yo como padre y mi niño interior.

La pérdida de un bebé no nacido es más común de lo que se habla; muchos lo viven en silencio, como un secreto del alma. Yo también sentí la alegría de preparar cada detalle y el desgarrador momento en que supe que algo no estaba bien. El silencio al regresar a casa pesa, y solo quienes han pasado por esto pueden comprenderlo.

Esta canción es para quienes han sentido esa pérdida silenciosa, para sus hijos no nacidos, y para los míos. Aunque no pudieron quedarse, el amor que llevamos por ellos nunca se apaga. Espero que esta canción traiga un pequeño rayo de consuelo a quienes lo necesiten.

Con todo mi cariño y mi más sincera solidaridad,

Bastian

"Canción de Amor" came from a time in my life marked by loss and learning. I experienced the indescribable pain of losing several children before they were born and my father unexpectedly. In the midst of that grief, this song became a refuge—a space between my self as a father and my inner child.

The loss of an unborn child is more common than we speak about; many live it in silence, like a secret of the soul. I, too, felt the joy of preparing for a baby and the heartbreak of knowing something was wrong. The silence when you return home is profound, and only those who have lived it can truly understand.

This song is for those who’ve felt that silent loss, for their unborn children, and for my own. Though they couldn't stay, the love we carry for them never fades. I hope this song brings a small light of comfort to those who need it.

With all my love and deepest solidarity,

Bastian

My music is a cinematic tapestry that seamlessly blends synthetic and organic elements, drawing from electronica, indie, pop, and world music influences. This eclectic mix creates a rich, immersive experience that is both familiar and otherworldly.

With a deep commitment to storytelling, I craft soundscapes that aim to heal and expand consciousness, inviting listeners into a world of color, movement, and profound emotion. My songs are more than just music—they're journeys designed to evoke, inspire, and connect.

Hey, I’m Louis Katz, a musician inspired by the timeless sounds of 60s rock, the poetic depth of Bob Dylan, the raw authenticity of Tom Petty, and the vibrant energy of surf guitar. I’ve always been drawn to the kind of music that tells a story, sparks emotion, and invites the listener to experience something bigger than just a catchy tune.

Though I haven’t performed at any venues or had the chance to work in a studio yet, my passion for music runs deep. Every day, I strive to push my creativity further, and I’m excited to take the next steps in my musical journey. My goal is to collaborate with like-minded artists and musicians—kindred spirits who share a love for authentic, soul-driven music.
