There's only one option and that's to keep going no matter what obstacles you may face.
'Wayward Grove' exemplifies the feeling of trekking through life with a mission that must be accomplished.
Striving for the sake of Striving .

LYRICS
I'll keep waiting
While the longing give up
I'll be patient
For the "where" I'm involved

If striving really works
I'll find the highest
Mountains in the Earth

Come if it may
Do what you please
I'll see the day
Moments converge
Save me from me
Come if it may
Soft as my vision unblurred

I'll keep waiting
While the longing give up
I'll be patient
For the "where" I'm involved
I'll keep waiting
Longing give up
I'll be patient

I'll be the one
Standing alone
Searching for one
Moment to grow
Fallings enough
No space to run
Breathing my wrongs
Standing through everything

I'll keep waiting
While the longing give up
I'll be patient
For the "where" I'm involved
I'll keep waiting
Longing give up
I'll be patient
No matter where I end up

If striving really works
I'll find the highest
Mountains in the Earth
And climb it

Feels something like walking through a foggy field.
'The Two of Us' is a serene take on a message to a love long gone but not forgotten, with hope still on the horizon.I believe in karma
I believe in karma
Anything could happen
For me
I'll be in the garden
Thinking 'bout if you'll be coming
Coming, Coming
I believe in karma
Seen it coming for me
Coming, Coming

Soon Baby
Every single problem won't consume baby
We don't have to walk around the truth baby
Soon Baby
Soon Baby
We gon' have to laugh about it soon baby
Take a trip with our minds in tune baby
Soon Baby, Woah
Ohhh, Message the unknown
Whatchu waiting for
Banging at your door
Waiting for some love
Ready, Set the tone
But you gotta know
I can't really fall
If you're already low
Soon Baby
Soon Baby Woah
Soon Baby, Soon Baby

You and me were so close
I wanna get you back
Get to know
Maybe we should make room
For all of the blessings God affords

Thinking 'bout you daily
My mistakes
Wasn't ready
You deserve better
Bring you pleasure
Some day soon we'll keep a bond

You and me were so close
I wanna get you back
Get to know you
Maybe we should make room
For all of the blessings God affords

The Two of Us

The Two Of Us

A selection of my spookiest 7" records from the late '50s to soundtrack Halloween.  Dark & brooding sounds for the witching hour; the tracks in this mix deal with issues of insanity, despair, moral depravity, hell and monsters of all kinds.

So prepare yourself for a musical ride on the Hellbound Train, stopping off at various points to take in the menacing sounds of Popcorn Noir; incl. sinister Surf, brooding Rhythm & Blues and desolate Country. All brewed in a cauldron filled with the lost hopes and dreams of a thousand helpless souls...

Lyrics: Maria Marachowska 2005
Made by suno (Generative artificial intelligence)

Monsters. Shapes.
Eyes and hands.
Bodies. Thoughts.
Fears and bones.
Simply living new sorrows.
Eternal sorrows and the question: "Why?".
Emotions in the shape of decay.
Steamed up windows of lust.
Simply forgotten or darkened.
Why don't they open?
Feeling a fresh breeze inside,
the troubles of the past left behind.
Being in love again.
throbbing emotions.
Praying, before the path begins

Lyrics 2005 & Music 2006: Maria Marachowska
English Translation: Iris Weirich 2010


Монстры, фигуры.
Глаза и руки.
Тела и мысли.
Страсти и кости.
Просто живые и новые муки.
Страдания вечные с вопросом:"Зачем?"
Чувства не вечные чем-тo закрытые.
Окна желания сегодня не мытые.
Просто забытые или чем-то прикрытые.
Их приоткрыть бы и немного проветрить.
И позабыть о прошлых проблемах.
Снова влюбиться и в чувствах забиться
И помолиться...
И помолиться перед дорогой.

Lyrics 2005 & Music 2006: Maria Marachowska

You can also find me on Mixcloud but I'm going to be putting up mixes on here exclusively for the moment. I run the following nights: Level the Vibes (Reggae/Dancehall), Back to the Future & Voodoo Workin' (Popcorn/R&B)

Maria Marachowska (musician, composer, painter, graphic designer, blogger) works & lives in Berlin. Early ancestors from Ireland (Cork, Munster, Connacht) & Cornwall England (mother's side) and later they moved to Sweden, to Germany, Finland, to Lithuanian, to Poland & to Russia, they were aristocrats and fled to Siberia to survive. And from my father's side French and British settlers who moved to Siberia later. 

With her "Siberian Blues" Maria Marachowska has created an entirely new music style. Its strength lies precisely in the alternation between two opposite and equally stirring ways of expression: on the one hand the deliberate slowness that leaves room to the tones and allows them to linger on in the silent pauses, and on the other hand the always increasing ecstatic speed amounting to a trance-like, almost shamanic outburst. In her music and the soft timbre of her deep singing voice, this blue haze, that is Blues, takes on the shape of figures and moods, forms poetic words either from her own pen or inspired by world literature, and seems almost meditative. Whoever gets into this unique experience of "Siberian Blues" submerges far under the surface and comes across long lost feelings and emotions. This particular energy is transferred to the listener and has a cathartic effect.
The melody speaks, we believe to hear a continuous echo to her singing voice on her guitar, she is capable of a playing technique that in a wondrous way conveys the acoustic illusion of hearing several instruments out of one. In the general effect, there is no need of any other instrument but this single guitar, to produce the drive of a band. It is as if the tones were falling from a distant star, as William S.Burroughs described the divine power of music in his “Cities of the Red Night“.

Maria Marachowska, born on July 21st, 1980 in Omsk/ Siberia (Russia), spent her early childhood in Estergom/ Hungary (1980-1985) and in 1985 she moved with her family to the historic metropolis Kaliningrad/Königsberg (1985-1998), where she attended the E.T.A. Hoffmann music school for highly gifted children/ instrument: piano/1989-1993. In 1998, she returned to her native city Omsk/ Siberia (1998-2000) for a period of 2 years to complete her studies of fine arts. Since 2000 she has been living in Germany, since 2004 in Berlin, where she has also newly discovered music for herself in addition to her work as a fine artist and has created her personal, innovative music style of SIBERIAN BLUES. In 2007 she recorded her 1st album with 1st songs. In 2012 she released Album "HEART" (12 Songs). Although a convinced solo artist, she has also collaborated and performed with renowed musicians in the course of her professional career, i.a. with German music producer, film composer and bassist Micki Meuser (Micki Meuser is a German bass player, studio musician (Charlie Mariano) and music producer for bands such as Die Ärzte, Ideal, Ina Deter, Lemonbabies, among others) who has recorded and mixed her solo albums "EMOTIONS" (2015) and "STRANGER" (2016) and from 2016 - 2017 she recorded album "SILENCE" (2017) with British music producer, film composer and exceptional Hammond player Alan Reeves (Alan Reeves is a British film composer, music producer, and Hammond B3 virtuoso. In the course of his career he has received 35 international awards, including a Goldene Schallplatte. He became known for his work with the bands The Showtimers and Clinic as well as for the music for the films To Walk with Lions, The Call of the Wild: Dog of the Yukon, and Kill Bill Vol. 2. He has appeared with, among others, the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Chuck Berry, The Animals, The Who, Jimmy Page, David Bowie and The Beatles).

Since 2017 she is a member of GEMA and has submitted more than 200 songs and 300 instrumental compositions. In 2017 she released her solo album "MELANCHOLY". In 2018 she recorded by herself solo album "ABSTRACT DADA". Driven by an untiring creative energy, she constantly continues to develop and share her new musical work on various music and social media platforms both as carefully edited sound recordings and live transmissions and in the form of artistic music videos & albums created by herself.
