"A Song of Scheherazade"
Valhjim

In the Sultan’s Garden, Scheherazade walks by
Looking at the flowers and the deep blue skies

She tells the Sultan stories in the starry night
She casts a magic spell with moonglow in her eyes

Each tale a silver thread that fills the dark with light
With wondrous words that weave a dream that never dies


Your eyes, my lady fair, they sparkle with delight,
Each tale, each new adventure, they fill me with surprise

Your songs live in my heart with words that make me wise.
With every word you say, I feel my soul take flight.

And so, my lady fair, I need you in my life,
My love belongs to you, would you be my wife?

A Song of Scheherazade

Written & composed by Lukas Zangerle

This techno track by Lukas Zangerle is inspired by Arabic rhythms and evokes the magic and mystery of the famous book One Thousand and One Nights, a collection of stories that originated in Persian and Arabic tradition, passed down through centuries of oral and written storytelling.

At the heart of the story is Scheherazade, the legendary storyteller who, night after night, tells tales to King Shahryar to escape her fate and, ultimately, win his heart. The track captures this atmosphere with a combination of dynamic percussion, hypnotic melodies, and a whispering voice that echoes through the desert wind.

The vocal phrases evoke the bond between Scheherazade and Shahryar: a spell woven through words, a tale unfolding beneath a starry sky, transforming the track’s energetic, pulsating rhythm into a true declaration of love. The contrast between the driving beat and the softness of the vocals creates a captivating tension, just like the story of One Thousand and One Nights: mystery, seduction, and passion intertwine in an endless dance.

Listening to this track brings to life the essence of Arabic rhythms, merging with the serenity of the night desert, where clear nights reveal vast, star-filled skies. It’s more than just a musical journey—it’s an invitation to lose yourself in an ancient love story, carried by the whispers of the wind.

"Desert Whispers" - Lukas Zangerle

Shahryar,
listen to my voice,

I will tell you a thousand stories,
Night after night... until dawn,

The stars dance over the desert,
The wind whispers my name,

Scheherazade,
One more tale,
to make you fall in love.



Desert Whispers

Since childhood, I’ve been captivated by the timeless magic of Walt Disney cartoons and the sweeping beauty of Scheherazade by Nikolai Rimsky Korsakov. His symphony, full of color and imagination, left a lasting impression on me, even though my music walks a very different path.
This track is not a reinterpretation of his work, but a tribute to the inspiration he sparked. It’s a bold fusion where Arabic melodies collide with orchestral textures and the raw power of metal. A cross-genre exploration that tells its own story, echoing with the spirit of tales from distant sands and storm-lit skies.

One Thousand and One Nights

Scheherazade. The name echoes through myth, not a queen of history, but of legend. A creation of ink and imagination, yet more alive than many who ever lived. She stands as a symbol of wit, survival, and the defiant power of storytelling. Her tale from One Thousand and One Nights isn’t just folklore it’s rebellion in silk and steel.

By day, a condemned bride. By night, a weaver of words. She faced a tyrant king who killed with the rising sun, and with nothing but her mind, she turned his blade into silence. One story at a time. A thousand and one nights. Each tale a weapon. Each cliffhanger a lifeline.

This track is my tribute, a fusion of symphonic Arabic metal forged to honor her legacy. Orchestral sweeps carry ancient sands, while distorted guitars and double kicks carve out the tension of survival. Her voice lives in every riff, every rise and fall, every brutal drop.

She may not have lived, but her story burns louder than ever.

Valhjim is a music composer with an eclectic approach to different genres: rock, pop, folk, New Age, and experimental electronic music. Greatly driven by imagination and poetic imagery, he combines multiple instrumental textures to fire the imagination of his listeners. 

His more experimental ambience and electronic music is built with layers of suggestive sound textures, rhythms, and melodic lines that stir the imagination into suggestive imagery and worlds unseen, true architectures of sound that open up limitless spaces to explore. Often Valhjim's melodies sail through genre thresholds, crossing over from one genre to another, from neo classcal to electronic, or from jazz to rock or new age.
